The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 213: What reformers need is courage

"Yes, the burden is the burden of my Daqin's road to prosperity." Shang Wen said.

"My lord, the minister is constantly propagating things about capital. The minister's thoughts may have been heard by the king, but he doesn't know that his move will help the king to achieve eternal achievements." Shang Wen said solemnly. .

“As far as taxes are concerned, the taxes collected by Daqin are still corvee, in kind. Property. Multiple collection methods. Not unified in currency.” Shang Wen put forward his own opinions.

"According to you, the unified collection of money can protect Da Qin?" King Qin asked rhetorically.

"Not only can it ensure, but it will also enable Da Qin to move toward the hegemony of this tens of thousands of worlds, and it will also enable my people of Da Qin to live better." Shang Wen replied directly.

"Why?" King Qin asked.

"The king only saw one side of it, but did not see the whole thing. This kind of thing, property, and corvee. To put it bluntly. In the end, it can be paid in a unified way. That is to say, the currency is hidden in the side of the taxation. Now it is. My Daqin levies taxes again, using currency as the basis for the collection. In this way, all things will be collected in my Daqin's hands. This currency becomes a chain. It firmly fixes the objects, servitudes, and goods. Above this chain. People use this as a standard. Only then can wealth be measured and can pass the world."

\"The king must firmly control this chain, so that he can control the world." Shang Wen tried to make it clear.

"Widow still don't understand." King Qin said.

Shang Wen thought for a moment. Decided to find a simpler case to illustrate the problem. King Qin didn't even understand, it means that King Qin has interest. As long as he has interest, everything is easy to handle. As long as Shangwen persuades King Qin to reform taxes, it can greatly stimulate the next move. Shang Wen saw a glimmer of hope. The feudal dynasty is about to loosen up.

"My lord, let's put it this way. Take military merit as an example." Shang Wen decided to use Qin's most important military merit system to open the door to capitalism in Qin. Military merit is the foundation of the Qin State, and it is very difficult. But just pry it. All the doors can be opened smoothly.

"My Daqin military merits are only more than 20 levels, and the rewards of the king are extremely limited. After these 20 levels are promoted, there will be no more. And my Da Qin has been fighting for years, how can the military merits be rewarded by more than 20 levels. "Shang Wen said.

When King Qin heard this, he became very interested. King Qin paid special attention to this matter, especially in the control of some important generals, such as Wang Jian, Yang Duanhe, and Meng Tian. King Qin couldn't be said to control it effortlessly. For this reason, King Qin also specifically lowered some rewards. In order to leave room. And Shang Wen now directly raises the question. This happened to poke the most worrying question in King Qin's heart. Shang Wen didn't know that the example he used as an analogy had already touched King Qin's heart.

"And capital. That is, the currency used for taxation. This currency is a symbol of wealth. Having more wealth means getting richer. Wealth has no limit. There are many ways to acquire wealth, and there is no unique new style. Wealth can do a lot of things. This is also the most fundamental reason why the minister has tried his best to let the king over you and reform taxation." In fact, China’s tax reform has taken longer than any other country in the world, especially the taxation in kind, which has occupied China’s largest share of taxation reforms. Thousands of years of history. After several dynasties' reforms, it was finally officially implemented under the reform of a whip method that Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the Ming Dynasty, tried his best to promote. Calculated from this time, Qin has a history of more than a thousand years. This process is so long. The difficulty of Shangwen to shake this most fundamental thing can be imagined. It is inevitable to encounter setbacks. But Shang Wen repeatedly explained the problem with great patience. This is the only way to upgrade civilization.

"My lord, you are now ordering to use the trophies obtained by the soldiers in front of you. Those soldiers will obtain these trophies at the cost of their lives. The payment of military payments can only ensure that they have a basis for survival, and the acquisition of trophies will It greatly stimulated the accumulation of wealth. What did King Qin get? It was a large area of ​​land. There was also a large area of ​​wealth. These land contained various kinds of wealth, including gold, silver, iron ore, sulfur ore, wood, etc. Oil and so on."

"When the soldiers in front have these trophies, they need to be exchanged for currency. This currency is only in the hands of merchants, and they will buy a large number of them from the soldiers. The king only needs to impose taxes on these merchants. That way. King Qin's The treasury will be filled with countless wealth. These are only a small part of it."

At this time, King Qin had begun to sort out every sentence Shangwen said.

"My lord. After these soldiers get a lot of money, they will inevitably buy a lot of land. But the king got such a large piece of land. In this way, the king can not only open up the territory and expand the land, those soldiers can also get a lot of land." For those military officers, they not only have money, but land, they also hope to have more money. The way out of these money is to invest. Initiate commercial activities. Promote the development of all walks of life." Shang Wenyong One by one gestures.

"The king can order them to develop those iron ore mines and build iron factories. This way, we have a solid foundation for Daqin. Investing in the establishment of food factories, the people of Daqin can eat delicious food without cooking. Established. In the textile factory, a large amount of cloth and ready-made clothes can be worn on the body without passing through the hands of my Daqin women. As long as the king collects taxes from it, it can be faster than the investment of these military officers to set up factories. King, you have to To build another treasury can hold such money." Shang Wen said.

King Qin's expression suddenly became more cheerful. King Qin's mind suddenly felt very clear, and suddenly felt confused.

"My lord, you have to build several treasuries to accommodate more wealth, and this wealth comes from the six nations. King Qin does not have to fight the six nations, and the six nations will naturally be unified into the hands of my great Qin. In my Da Qin. Within the four seas. There is no disagreement. Those six royal houses only have loyalty to my Da Qin. My Da Qin will return to the six kingdoms of Guandong without a single soldier."

King Qin's mind suddenly became clear. The mist in King Qin's heart is precisely the heart that unites the world. This is the goal that several generations of King Qin have struggled and worked hard for. At this moment, Shang Wen dissolved the King of Qin's unification ambition into the benefits of tax reform.

"I Daqin has large iron factories, large textile factories, large tracts of various factories. These products can only be sold in order to exchange a lot of money. These items are not only used by Da Qin, The surplus can be sold to the Six Nations," Shang Wen said.

"Wait." King Qin waved his hand and said.
