Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 349 Zhao Si, Zhao Si, you have to watch your face!

It’s autumn harvest now…

There is no need to say much about the harvest season. According to custom, a court meeting will be held after the autumn harvest.

Ji Cheng was not wrong, the current situation in Da Qin was really improving.

Although the corvee tax has been lowered, although Guizhou is not the biggest beneficiary, it is precisely because Guizhou is too humble that even a small benefit is enough for them to benefit a lot.

Compared to the remnants of the Six Kingdoms who were struggling in their hearts, the monstrous anger accumulated by the Guizhou leaders melted away quickly.

Since ancient times, this group has been the best group to fool, even with slight kindness...

Even if it is just to allow them to barely survive, it is enough.

The biggest beneficiaries of the tax reduction, the nobles from all over the world, also had a great change in their view of the First Emperor.

After all, not everyone is like Zhang Liang who is desperate and bent on rebellion, nor is everyone like Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's uncles and nephews who cling to the glory of the past and want to replace it.

The ideological orientation of the group must be to achieve stability.

Especially those with vested interests.

The Warring States Period was filled with years of strife, which made life difficult for everyone.

War requires men and strength, and lives are at risk. A large number of people are not engaged in production because war construction has stalled...

No matter how you say it, war will only bring destruction. Continuous war will only reduce the cake, and the vested interests will also form a situation where the big fish eats the small fish and the small fish eat the shrimp.

The First Emperor was willing to lower taxes and put down his figure, and nobles from all over the world were also willing to recognize the First Emperor as a good person.

That's right.

Power is delegated to local governments, the king and nobles share the system, and everyone respects you as the co-owner. You are good to me and everyone is good to you. This is the situation that everyone wants.

It is too independent to always think about concentrating all the wealth and power in the world on yourself.

The nobles unanimously believed that the First Emperor's food appearance was too bad and that he was too domineering. However, the First Emperor changed and they were naturally more willing to cooperate and become the emperor.

Everything is nothing more than interests, and the First Emperor took the initiative to give up the profits, thus greatly alleviating social conflicts.

If the First Emperor is willing to follow the national policy of the early Han Dynasty and choose to rest with the people, recuperate and recuperate, do light corvee and pay little tax, and govern by doing nothing...

Then within a few decades, the nobles in the world will recognize their identity as Qin people from the bottom of their hearts.

Even at that time, people like Zhang Liang were no longer world-famous righteous men, but traitors who tried to overthrow the imperial court.

Zhang Liang is a smart man, he realizes this, and it is precisely because of this that he feels panic.

The First Emperor was actually showing goodwill and giving away benefits.

Will you give up your rights after you give up the profits?
The nobles of the world believed that this was a good start and the beginning of the First Emperor's compromise.

Well...actually, that's really a start.

The preparations that need to be made are almost complete. The corvee and taxes will be reduced, and the announcement will be made to the world. The grain production will increase and the output will double.

A great victory in Shangjun, no more disasters on the grassland!
Public opinion has also undergone a huge change, and ordinary people have begun to live with light and hope. They have abandoned their previously explosive thoughts and instead sought stability.

The sense of identity has achieved a qualitative leap!

So here comes the question... In this case, if the nobles want to coerce the people and cause unrest, can they still do it?
able!Sure!
The nobles are armed, have food, and have savings. It is not difficult to coerce the people.

But can it cause turmoil that is enough to impact the fate of the Qin Dynasty?Zhao Si thinks it is impossible.

Most of the common people's resentment towards Qin has disappeared, and the bright future is in front of them. Even if they resist with force, they will be limited to one county at most and can be defeated with a finger.

So, is the current situation considered a settled situation?

After serious discussions between the First Emperor, Li Si and even Zhao Si, they believed that the prerequisites for moving your order were sufficient.

The Huns have become the puppets of the Qin Dynasty. The Lantian camp has 20 troops, and Shangjun can mobilize 30 troops at any time.There is no need to mobilize South Vietnamese soldiers, Da Qin already has enough troops to suppress the world.

Not to mention that Wang Jian is now the Taiwei himself.

Wang Jian is old, sick, and in poor health.

However, he was not dead yet, nor was he so comatose that he could not see the formation clearly.

Autumn harvest...

The world received its first real harvest.

Because of this autumn harvest, they only paid one-tenth of the tax.

For the first time, they have reaped the benefits in a real sense. So, will anyone among the common people be willing to destroy all of this or even give up on their own initiative to listen to the deception of a nobleman in order to gain wealth?

Common people and local nobles are no longer completely bound groups.

Taking advantage of this good harvest, it is time to propose the imperial edict.

The nobles thought that the First Emperor had taken away the knife from their necks, and they could not feel the edge of the blade.

Little did they know, the sword was just raised by the First Emperor.

If you don't lift it up, how can you chop off the head with the sword?
As the key, Zhao Si wanted to speak. He did not lie to Jicheng because he wanted to think about his speech.

Once again, he stayed up late at night to read. This time, Zhao Si was full of energy.

The next day... Before dawn, Zhao Si stood up amid Yu Ji's gentle call.

Zhao Si went to bed very late last night and slept for less than three hours in total. However, Zhao Si did not feel tired at all and only felt energetic.

"Husband-in-law looks very happy today?" Yu Ji helped Zhao Si get dressed and said with a smile.

Zhao Si has a lazy temperament. In the past, he didn't get enough sleep and got up early, so he would always be autistic for a long time.

"Is there any?" Zhao Si looked at the bronze mirror.

Hmm... The corners of my mouth are indeed a bit uncontrollable.

Zhao Si rubbed his face.

"Zhao Si, Zhao Si, you have to watch your face!"

Today was a big drama, and he acted as the fuse. The real highlight was Li Si's personal appearance.

"With the recent autumn harvest, the world is rich. It is indeed a great joy!" Zhao Si smiled and responded to Yu Ji's question. After that, Liao Liao took care of breakfast and drove the carriage towards the palace in person.

Marching along... Although it is still dark, the streets are not empty.

As a major court meeting that is held only once in a long time, almost all officials of sufficient rank must participate in person.

He is a civil and military official in the true sense!
Therefore, on the streets, there were already officials rushing to enter the court in horse-drawn carriages.

Marching all the way to the palace, it was still neither too early nor too late.

Zhao Si got up early in the morning, but on such a special day and such a grand occasion, there were countless kings. Even before the palace gate was opened, officials were already waiting.

When Zhao Si entered the main hall, nearly half of the civil and military officials had entered.

The ministers got close and whispered to each other according to their respective relationships.

It seems that the mood is still very good.

Of course it's true, but which official is not a noble?When the First Emperor lowered taxes, who here did not benefit?
Zhao Si also squinted his eyes, put up his sleeves and followed the crowd and showed a sincere smile.

(No more... what my family wrote is a bit stiff. The main reason is that the focus is different. Now that a big event is approaching, the timeline has to be pushed forward, and there is no way to add too much daily life.)
