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

Chapter 361 Zhang Liang: I have to think about whether this is my only chance in this life!
"What does ovary mean?" Cang Haijun looked at Zhang Liang with complicated thoughts.

"The King of Qin is as fierce as a tiger and a wolf. I heard that the burden of memorials that the King of Qin handles in one day is calculated. All the three princes and nine ministers have to report any matters, no matter how big or small. The King of Qin is so greedy for power. People like this cannot tolerate wise people. The sea is full of lords." It is famous both internally and externally, and often tolerates righteous men who have violated Qin's laws. You are someone he cannot tolerate. You used to be in the East China Sea, so the King of Qin didn't know about these things. When you go to Guanzhong, it's like taking off your clothes. Standing in front of King Qin, your life is at stake!" Zhang Liang sighed and said sincerely.

When Canghaijun heard this, he felt a little panicked. Zhang Liang's analysis was very reasonable. Canghaijun knew very well that if he followed the Qin Law and Qin Law, he would be guilty of enough crimes to die a dozen times.

"This..." Mr. Canghai didn't know how to respond for a moment, with a look of hesitation on his face.

"I also heard that in order to supervise the world, the King of Qin specially set up a black ice platform outside the Sangong and Jiuqing. It is managed by Dun Ruo. The Black Ice Platform is independent of the Sangong and Jiuqing. In case of trouble, he can directly take the king's orders. The Black Ice Platform Among them, most of them are unruly and cruel people. Even the three gongs and nine ministers don't look down on them. If they hear the news, they will be arrested by the boss. There are even independent imperial prisons, like the nobles who were moved there, Heibingtai. They will definitely keep an eye on them, even if they have made no mistakes, they will probably be charged with it. If Canghaijun goes to the pass, his family wealth will be scattered, and he will become a mere fish, I am afraid that even the lives of the whole family will be difficult to save!"

"After the King of Qin unified the world, he collected the soldiers of the world and cast them into twelve golden men. He slaughtered all the clans of the six countries. He also issued a new order for the head of Guizhou to bring troops. He couldn't wait to take all the power in the world into his hands. The great scholar Chunyu Yue therefore After being killed, the eldest son Fusu was demoted to Longxi and could not return to Xianyang for a long time. In order to move the royal mausoleum, the King of Qin planned for three years. He first lowered the price of salt, and then lowered the corvee and taxes to show off, but in fact it was for himself. ambition.

The Qin State has been known for its cruelty since King Shang's reform, and even the King of Qin was even more cruel, ten times more than in ancient times. Such people would rather reduce the tax for fourteen years than issue an order to move the royal tomb. However, if the tax is reduced, the national treasury will be empty. , taxes dropped sharply many times, Lord Canghai thought, would King Qin be willing to lose money in vain?
Mr. Canghai, please think carefully about where these free taxes will be collected from! "Zhang Liang chuckled.

Zhang Liang spoke calmly, but Cang Haijun was breaking into a cold sweat as he listened.

What Zhang Liang said was straightforward enough.

Taxes have been reduced so much, which is a loss for King Qin.

With so much loss, who will make up for it?

There is no doubt that he is a nobleman who moved his family to Guanzhong.

You can't, just hope that the King of Qin will change his gender and let the nobles move their families, which is what his edict said, so that the nobles can bathe in kindness and become an example for the common people in the world.

Thinking of this, and then thinking that everything you own will disappear, your family and children will be implicated.

"What...what should I do?" Canghaijun was really panicked.

Zhang Liang is undoubtedly a smart man. He did not start with the hatred of the country and the family, because he knew that Cang Haijun had already put aside the so-called hatred of the country and the family.

So he started with Cang Haijun's wealth and life safety, moved him with emotion, and explained it with reason.

Obviously, Cang Haijun has embarked on the path he envisioned.

rebel!

Yes, it is rebellion!

I don’t know since when, the State of Qin has changed, and the King of Qin has changed!
Perhaps, everything has to start with the fleet returning from overseas.

In short, before he knew it, Zhang Liang, who was originally very ambitious, was surprised to find that before he knew it, within just a few years.

The conflict in Qin, which had been so intense that it was on the verge of breaking out at any time, inexplicably stabilized.

It was not until the First Emperor issued an order to reduce corvees and taxes that Zhang Liang was completely panicked.

For Da Qin, the reduction of corvees and taxes was undoubtedly a clearing of the clouds.

For Zhang Liang, the originally bright road suddenly became dense with dark clouds.

He... seemed to have been able to foresee that the conflicts would be dissolved and eased. Ten or even decades later, the people of the world would forget the cruelty of King Qin and live and work in peace and contentment under the rule of the First Emperor.

There is a rumor among the people that the world has been suffering from Qin for a long time.

In fact, Zhang Liang thought this was inappropriate. To be precise, the world had been fighting hard for a long time.During the Warring States Period, various countries frequently fought against each other.

The flames of war never go away...

War means instability.

For the upper-class salary earners, perhaps a defeat in the war will make them fall into the clouds, or a new star will rise to usurp their interests.

For the common people at the bottom, every time a war comes, taxes and labor will increase exponentially.

The Qin State destroyed the six kingdoms and emptied the Qin State's family fortune, and also emptied the six kingdoms' family fortunes.

Why Qin State has heavy taxes...

When war comes, when life and death are at stake, no matter which country it is, it will do its best to plunder common people.

The occurrence of wars and increased taxes has been a problem since ancient times. Wars have been frequent, and temporary additional taxes have naturally become the norm.

When the Six Kingdoms were fighting against each other, it seemed that Qin's taxes were heavier than those of the Six Kingdoms, but in fact, the common people of the Six Kingdoms who were dragged into the quagmire of war may not have as good a life as the Qin people.

It is not Qin who suffers in the world, but the difficulty of settling down.

Qin was able to unify the world, probably because the people in the world were tired of endless wars.

Well, after reunification, there will be no war. After there is no war, there will be no need to increase taxes. Those who live on salary will not have to worry about someone suddenly rising up to divide the benefits.

Everyone can finally sit down, make the cake bigger and divide it among themselves.

But Qin Shihuang refused.

After the unification of the world, taxes were still heavy, corvee labor was still frequent, the military merit system still existed, and the Civil War still continued.

The Qin State did not obey the wishes of the people of the world, and after unification it failed to bring peace to the people of the world.

Therefore, the world has been suffering from Qin for a long time.

But what if the Qin State allows the people of the world to settle down and give the people of the world breathing space?
After reducing corvee and taxes, Zhang Liang was horrified to find that the reputation of the Qin State, and even Qin Shihuang, was rising rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The most important thing is that the common people began to consciously transfer their hatred from Qin Shihuang and the State of Qin to nobles everywhere.

The Qin State no longer oppressed them. No matter how much the nobles tried to blame them, a piece of paper posted an order to reduce corvees and taxes was enough to explain everything.

The terrible thing is that the most common people in the world really began to subconsciously pray for peace in the world.

Now, because time is still short, there is still opportunity to take advantage of everything.

What about five years from now, ten years from now?

Zhang Liang must seriously consider whether moving the royal tomb order is his only chance in this life.

Even though, this chance is still extremely slim!
