On the second day, Shangwen was drawing up a negotiation condition on the economic aspects of Qin and Zhao. These conditions are about how to solve Zhao's current economic difficulties.

Shangwen didn't have many plans for Zhao Guo's plan at the beginning. But when drawing up the plan, Shangwen found a trick. That can be modeled on the "Concession Act." It's just that the "Concession Act" aids military supplies. And Shangwen uses economic aid as the purpose of improving the relations between the two countries. This is a foundation. Then, on this basis, the military power of the Zhao country was transferred. The target is the Huns in the north, or the Western countries in the West. Or maybe the Vietnamese from the south. In short, Qin has too many economic means to choose from. And Zhao Guo is obviously not Qin's opponent in this respect. Their economy is still mainly dependent on agricultural production. The source of taxation also comes from agriculture. The production cycle cannot be compared with Qin State.

"Boom." The door of Shangwen's office was kicked open again. Shang Wen was helpless but couldn't get angry. There was only one person who could knock the door of Qin's prime minister's office.

"What's the matter with you?" Shang Wen said.

"Oh, don't say it. Come on the street with me, there will be no one this afternoon." Yingyu said that Lashangwen was going out on the street.

"Why are you pulling me?" Shangwen hasn't finished the matter on hand.

"I'll talk about it later." Ying Yu said hurriedly.

"You finish first, what is so anxious about." Shang Wen said.

"Present. Tomorrow is the beginning of the year." Yingyu said.

"Oh. New Year's Eve tomorrow." Shang Wen suddenly realized.

"It doesn't matter so much. I haven't bought a gift yet. I think you are so busy all day, so hurry up and help me choose." Yingyu said.

"Why are you buying gifts?" Shang Wen asked.

"Send it. I'm the eldest daughter. Of course, I want to give a gift more generously." Yingyu said with an adult voice.

"Then, that's all right." Shang Wen reluctantly agreed.

The two walked together on the streets of Xianyang, because tomorrow is the first year of the year. Qin's holiday atmosphere is unusually strong. Many people came out to purchase things in the last year. After all, it is the last day. Many people hold large and small boxes and bags in their hands, with festive smiles on their faces. The Qin State changed a lot this year. People's quality of life has been greatly improved.

Especially the people in Xianyang area. Whether they are from Qin or from the Six Nations, they benefit from Qin’s low tax policy. They only need to pay a very low tax a year, coupled with the rapid increase in income. What people live by is called a beauty.

There are many more clothing stores in Qin State. The costumes here include traditional costumes, which are mainly worn when visiting relatives on festivals. There are also many fashionable clothes. Furs, fur coats, and sweaters, sweaters. There are many different colors of clothes. And most of them are based on beautiful colors.

There are many people in these shops. People's living standards are high. Of course I don’t care if I buy a few clothes.

"You see, there are really a lot of people nowadays. Before, there were so many people during the holidays. People don't buy clothes. They do it by themselves. It's all your credit." Yingyu introduced to Shangwen.

"Yes." Shang Wen nodded and agreed. Then I looked around and people went shopping frantically to buy all this. Money can be bought like it can't be spent. Although Shang Wen feels lively, he always feels something is wrong.

"Hey, idiot, what do you think I should give to my father? I'm old. It's time to honor my father. I originally planned to give a revolver with a carved tooth handle. But think about it. It's still a big deal. It’s a big holiday, it’s not good to give it. You think about what to give it to me soon?" Yingyu asked.

"Send what?" Shang Wen said to himself.

"Later, I wanted to send a pair of jade bibs. But someone gave it. My brother Fusu gave it. I will send it again. It's meaningless. You have a lot of words, think about it. Money. I don't care, as long as the idea is new That's it." Yingyu said as he walked.

"But I didn't see what you gave last year." Shang Wen remembered the holiday last year.

"Who said I didn't deliver it. At that time, were we not in the north? And later, I didn't deliver some ice cream." Yingyu said dissatisfied. The actual situation is that Yingyu didn't think of any good things to give. Many things were delivered last year, and they were delivered again this year. For example, Yubi will be Yubi this year, and it will be Yubi next year. In short, if you don't send it, someone will send it. If it is not other precious gifts. Yingyu looked bored. There is no way, I really can't think of it. Just ran to the north to find Shang Wen and escaped the disaster. Shangwen happened to be in the north at that time, and just didn't catch up. Otherwise, he really doesn't know these rules.

"You will not give your father some good wine." Shang Wen suggested.

"Is my father lacking wine? No shortage of clothes. He doesn't lack anything to eat, wear, and use." Yingyu couldn't think of anything.

"This gift is really difficult?" Shang Wen said.

"Isn't it? The expensive ones are nothing new, and the cheap ones can't be taken. Hey, annoying." Yingyu said old-fashioned.

"What are you sighing?" Shang Wen said.

"Hey, I can't say, I really can't say." Ying Yu sighed and shook his head.

"How easy it is to give a gift. Just buy something ordinary. Why is it so difficult?" Shang Wen really didn't understand why it was so troublesome.

"Do you know why you stayed?" Yingyu asked, turning around.

Shang Wen looked at Yingyu incomprehensibly.

"You stay, because you always do what you want. I can't." Yingyu said in a logical way.

"Look at those people. They buy so many. Actually, they don't give themselves a lot. Only a small portion. The rest are for neighbors, relatives and friends. However, this is much better than before." Ying Yu said.

"Besides, you are the person who receives the gift. I don't care about the difficulties of the person who gives the gift." Yingyu waved his hand and said.

"Receive a gift, what kind of gift to receive?" Shang Wen asked.

"You don't understand it. You are the prime minister now, and you have an office location. You have real power in your hands, and your subordinates will naturally give you gifts. However, you didn't have a mansion before. Now people know that you work The place is now. Now, you have endless gifts." Yingyu said.

"Gifts are normal," Shang Wen said.

"Normal, these gifts are not light. Do you know how much those gifts cost?" Yingyu asked.

"Oh. I understand." Shang Wen suddenly understood. This is a common problem in Chinese officialdom. Even in places with harsh legal systems like Qin. However, some official malpractices still exist, such as gift giving. Coupled with a strict management system like Qin State. And gift giving is legal. You don't need to think about the impact of this consequence to know how harmful it is.

"Humph." Shangwen felt that although some customs are good, they must be changed. For example, this is the saying of giving gifts during the holidays.
