Naturally, the military generals wanted to go to Yan State immediately, but the civil servants would not agree with Wu Nao. They began to discuss how to use the road, whether to let Zhao State give way, or to bypass Wei and Qi.

Taking advantage of Zhao State is naturally the fastest way, but Zhao State and Da Qin are still feuding and may not be willing to take advantage of it. Instead, Wei State and Qi State have to take advantage of the passage. The risk of uncertainty is a bit high.

Zhao Zheng, on the other hand, made the final decision. To this day, what else is there to do? Just fight all the way and just push horizontally.

When the Qin Dynasty was full of martial virtue, why Zhao Zheng didn't launch the unification for so long? It was naturally because the software had not kept up.

It is because it is easy to defeat the six countries, but it is difficult to win over the people of the six countries.

The core of governance lies in governance. If we accept the remnants of the Six Kingdoms without enough management manpower, we can only use the original team to continue governance. At most, there will only be one boss descended from the sky. This is even more of a minefield.

Hidden worries and dangers.

But things will be different after conquering hundreds of schools of thought. Zhao Zheng is also very generous. You schools of thought are "arguing", and what you are arguing about is whose theory is the truth.

Well, just hand over the governance of each town, and use the actual governance results to prove the principles of hundreds of schools of thought. Who is the truth and the way to govern the world?

This is the true contention of a hundred schools of thought, rather than being obsessed with which one is number one, and endless internal fighting for this reason. You can’t see me being well, and I can’t see you being well.

What's the point of fighting each other, even to the point of life and death?

Even if you really win the first place, if the king doesn't use it, the first place will be of no use to the world.

Therefore, all the schools of thought need a referee to stand above them, so that they can truly use the talents of the schools for their own benefit.

And Zhao Zheng believed that the current Great Qin had the qualifications of a whistleblower, so he had political principles, convened a meeting of hundreds of schools, abandoned the sectarian theories of the hundreds of schools of thought, and directly appointed talents from the hundreds of schools of thought.

Rather than the various schools of thought themselves.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes plundered each other to respect the king and fight the barbarians, and then from the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period to the unified Qin Shidi. This is the true historical trend, which is called the general trend that must be united after long separation.

Although the Qin State is strong, if it wants to conquer the world, it still needs to do it slowly. Of course, the historical practice of uniting vertically and horizontally and dividing and eating is no longer necessary.

Zhao Zheng's highest guiding opinion is that he hopes to have a stable world that can be steadily developed from the beginning, rather than a desolate and war-torn world with ten rooms and nine empty rooms.

It's easy to deal with the army, just use artillery to open the way and push all the way across.

It may be possible to fight or not, but it is best not to fight, but it is impossible for others to run away, so a mole is needed.

Today, the biggest insiders are Guo Kai, Hou Sheng and his ilk, but the biggest insiders are the beneficiaries of the Ying Chamber of Commerce.

The Ying Chamber of Commerce, which was formed six years ago, is already the largest supplier of luxury goods in the world. It is no exaggeration to say that it has collected all the wealth of the six countries.

From the silk stockings and high heels at the beginning, to the fairy clothes, orchid robes, colored glaze, jade, refined salt, soap, paper, pen and ink... all of them were best-selling and sought-after products in seven countries, including Qin.

At the same time, it has also "benefited" countless people, fattened countless caravans, and formed a new profit industry chain.

Because there are owners behind these caravans, and these people are the powerful and powerful people from various families and armors behind the Seven Kingdoms. It can be said that the Ying Chamber of Commerce is like a needle, connecting the nobility, honor, and power of the seven heroes of the Warring States Period.

The local gentry and others are connected by interests.

This kind of interest chain is extremely terrifying. It twists together the interests of different departments, different industries, local interests and different classes to form a community of interests.

For example, now, the Qin State is about to launch a unified campaign, and encounters obstacles in the process of conquering the city. What should I do if the city lord or city guard wants to defend the city and refuses to surrender but fights to the death of every soldier?

There is no need for the Qin army to take the initiative. I don’t want to harm the interests of the Qin State and cause the loss of the Ying Chamber of Commerce, the sponsor of the business association. Dad’s merchant association is more active than anyone else.

These businessmen will take the initiative to report the situation to the masters behind them, and will explain the pros and cons to increase the extent of losses, and then those who actually gain will take the initiative to contact a large number of insiders to come out.

In the end, the city lord or city guard will find that he is resisting Qin in the front, but the rear is hit by thunder and fire. This resistance to Qin cannot be sustained.

In order to allow these businessmen to do their best, the masters behind them are also worried that they will lose their current interest status after the unification of Qin, so provide them with protection.

Don’t you want protection? Then give status to businessmen. Yes, give status to businessmen, not the status of the masters behind the businessmen.

I believe that once this news is announced, the business people will definitely go crazy.

As long as Da Qin gives them a fair enough status and business environment, the wealthy businessmen of the six countries will shift their focus to Qin and promote the further rapid development and construction of Qin.

There has been a saying throughout the ages that among scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants, the merchants who are ranked last have the lowest social status.

Why is this? Because businessmen are not engaged in production and pursue profits, so they are particularly unpleasant. However, history has long proven that businessmen are also an important part of a country.

The behavior of merchants is to promote the circulation of goods, meet the balance of market supply and demand, and promote urban development. They are an indispensable part of a country that wants to develop.

However, even with Zhao Zheng's current prestige, this proposal still met with strong opposition.

Businessmen are despicable and only blindly pursue profits. Those guys can do anything for profit.

Once their status is raised, the consequences will be disastrous. I am afraid they will lose their morals and lose their humanity, which is a sign of the country's subjugation.

But Zhao Zheng knew that this move would attract opposition, so he waited until the eve of the unification to propose it. Without Zhao Zheng having to speak again, Wei Liaozi came forward, started a verbal battle with the Confucian scholars, and finally convinced all the officials.<

/p>

This was discussed long ago. Zhao Zheng opened his mouth and set a high tone. Wei Liaozi then lowered the tone by explaining various restrictions. In this way, the matter of improving the status of businessmen was passed.

After all, just by using gimmicks like "not worshiping officials before they meet", you can drive businessmen to "conquer cities and seize territory" for the Qin State. This kind of "virtual nobility" in name only can be granted.

But for businessmen who have always been at the bottom of society, their families have a lot of wealth, and they can only walk at night in their splendid clothes. From then on, they became the most loyal puppies in the Qin State.

Of course, Zhao Zheng will not blindly allow businessmen to become powerful. On the contrary, he must use the most stringent laws to restrain business. Businessmen can make a fortune, but they must not create capital.
