The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 186: Challenge the kingship

"My lord, this is the general trend. If you deliberately defy it, the reaction will be difficult to change." Shang Wen could only say a little.

"Oh. The widow will think about it again." King Qin said, holding his head.

Shangwen didn't know what to do. Because he really didn’t understand why King Qin could refuse such a reason. Could it be the traditional national policy, the insurmountable gap that emphasizes agriculture and restrains business? If this is the case, only production technology can be used to promote tax policy reforms. . But tax reform must continue. First of all, money must replace the original commodity base in the form of money and grain, and grain must be eliminated. As a unit of measurement, grain has greatly restricted the development of the commodity economy, making the economic model limited to this model for a long time.

The status of currency must be established as soon as possible. At present, the only thing that can well promote the improvement of this policy is to change it through war. King Qin couldn't make huge concessions on this area. Shangwen is really puzzled.

The car quickly arrived at Xianyang Palace. Before King Qin got off the car, Zhao Gao asked Li Si, Wei Liao and others to discuss. Shangwen understands whether this policy is passed or not. Just today.

Immediately, a fierce debate began. After King Qin summoned the crowd, he immediately explained Shang Wen's thoughts. Li Si was immediately opposed. The reason for the opposition was far-fetched, but it allowed Shangwen to find the root cause of King Qin's opposition.

It turns out that this idea was implemented once before Wenxin Hou Lubuwei was the prime minister of Qin Dynasty, but it was only a small-scale trial and not a large-scale promotion. After King Qin took office. With Li Si's entry, this move was abolished. And this attempt ends here. and. Li Si's policy was conservative and accepted the Qin State's policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business since the Shang Yang Reform. In order to obtain stable food as a basis, King Qin did not plan to make major adjustments.

However, Shang Wen's idea suddenly demanded a breakthrough. This breakthrough comes from the needs of war. But compared to the needs of war. The domestic demand for stability is far greater than the demand for war.

King Qin had a contradiction with Wen Xinhou full of distrust and trust, and he did not take this action. Li Si conservatively believes that this is not feasible. His purpose is simple, that is to protect his vested interests.

There are also generals in the audience, but only Wang Jian has the greatest say. But judging from Wang Jian's attitude, it is obvious that the supportive attitude is not very large. Because, as a general, you want to lead troops, and the leader is most likely to arouse the suspicion of King Qin, who is proficient in the arts of the emperor. Wang Jian knows this point better than anyone else. And from a historical point of view, Wang Jian led 600,000 troops to destroy the Kingdom of Chu. This has been proven. The emperor's technique is a layer of window paper, which cannot be broken here.

Wei Liao looked unsure. Shangwen simply couldn't get the support of the important ministers. For the present plan, I can only argue with my own tongue.

"The prime minister's words are not correct." Shang Wen retorted immediately.

"This change in military merit is a good thing. Soldiers have gained huge profits, unprecedented. These benefits cannot be taken away by soldiers in a short period of time, and the actual conditions cannot be fulfilled. If a large amount of wealth is transported from the border to the inland, it will deplete the soldiers' income. But the businessmen think it’s a big business opportunity and profit from it. In this regard, Daqin should levy taxes, and taxes can increase my Daqin’s income, which in turn can pay for my Daqin’s soldiers. Soldiers’ desire to fight is far greater. It is far greater than the military merit system. The money of those soldiers can be sent home to subsidize the family. It reduces the burden of my Daqin people. What's wrong with this move." Shang Wen said.

"The system of military merit lies in the favor of the king. Compared with the military profits obtained by the soldiers, how much does it account for? Maybe less than 30%. The soldiers are more eager to fight. But how much more kindness to the king? "Li Si said loudly.

Shang Wen didn't understand Li Si's words. But what is certain is that this is related to King Qin's desire for control. King Qin caught everything he liked. The control of military power is particularly important, because there was a coup before. Shang Wen thought of this. Shang Wen understood Li Si's words. This sentence does not seem to have much weight, but it greatly represents the interests of the King Qin. Representing the authority of the King of Qin. But he unknowingly weakened the authority of this kind of king. at this point. It was the most sensitive place of King Qin. How could King Qin agree.

I'm afraid, I don't need to explain the next thing. King Qin already understood what he meant. That is, the payment of military pay can increase the income of soldiers. This is the benefit that King Qin gave to the soldiers, but the proportion is far less than that of the spoils. Because Shangwen proposed the privatization of the spoils. The loot could not be brought back on a large scale, which stimulated commercial activities at the border. Those soldiers will sell a large amount of the spoils in their hands, and even the land they have obtained. This seemed to promote economic development, but it greatly aroused the suspicion of King Qin.

How could King Qin, who is proficient in emperor's art, allow such a thing to happen? Conquer can be done through other things. However, the tax reform brought about by the payment of military salaries is no longer feasible. Shangwen knew in his heart that this measure had been rejected when it was first proposed. King Qin's strong desire for control did not allow such things to happen.

Don't guess the result. This will not work. The reward is still carried out in the same way as in the past. Shang Wen also had nothing to say. For the first time, Shang Wen realized that this is politics, and this is the way of thinking of the upper level. And the method that I think is feasible is totally unworkable here. He is very novel and very seductive. The most important thing is that in Shang Wen's view, this move is the key to opening the door to capitalism, but from the upper level. This move is a bit immature, even whimsical.

The celebration banquet was specially organized for Wang Jian who had returned from the north. War song, war dance. Good wine and delicacies. None of this can bring Shang Wen up. Shang Wen sees his political shortcomings. Very shallow. Very naive.

I can achieve great achievements in science and engineering. But they cannot get an inch of achievement in politics. In the political circle, one's own ideas can only meet the needs of some people, but cannot develop completely according to one's own will. Shang Wen was a little discouraged.

Shangwen tasted failure for the first time.
