"Grandpa, this coal is very useful. It can not only make iron. It is also the main fuel of Qin. Moreover, Qin has already begun to extract new things from this coal." Li Zuoche said.

"Oh." Li Mu agreed.

"Grandpa, although we came to Qin State not long ago, the changes in Qin State have exceeded our expectations." Li Zuoche said.

"These are the second reforms being carried out by the State of Qin," Li Zuoche said.

"The second reform?" Li Mu asked.

"Yes, in the military academy, economics, an auxiliary subject, has been added to the staff courses. Their summary is very interesting. And it's another way of thinking." Li Zuoche said.

"Talk about it," Li Mu said.

"They summarized their history in this way. They believed that the Qin State Merchants Reform was the first reform of the Qin State. That reform only laid a foundation for the Qin State. It also provided an effective template for the reform of the Qin State. . This template is the rule of law." Li Zuoche began to take the knowledge he heard one by one.

"The results of that reform are mainly represented by food and combat power. Moreover, they also compared with the reform of the King Wuling. They believe that the reform of the King Wuling is mainly focused on the military, and there are very few civilian aspects. ." Li Zuoche said these points one by one. It is also the first time that Li Mu heard such an interesting view.

"But this time Qin State's reform is different. And the intensity of the reform has far surpassed the former." Li Zuoche turned the topic around and said.

"I've seen this." Li Mu waved his hand and said.

"No, we didn't see it. If it weren't for such an article in the Qin State Military Academy, none of us would have thought of it." Li Zuoche was young and energetic, willing to accept new things.

"Oh. What didn't you see?" Li Mu asked.

"Capital." Li Zuoche said.

"Capital?" Li Mu hadn't heard of this.

"Yes, this time Qin State's reform is carried out around this capital." Li Zuoche said.

"Why did the State of Qin stop the expansion of the Guandong and attack the Huns, Hu people, and Yueshi. The reason is capital." Li Zuoche said.

"After they madly occupied these places, they began to turn all these people into slaves. These slaves were all used to build roads, and then to enter the fields. We only saw the surface. But we didn't see the hiding in the middle. This is the same thing. That is the capital. Capital can be explained by currency." Li Zuoche said.

"That's what the paper I saw said."

"Qin State issued paper treasury bonds through this method. All the money of Qin State was obtained. Then, Qin State used the opportunity of war to expand abroad. And the currency received was issued through the national debt. In this way, all the currency was collected. In hand. National debt replaced currency. Not only that, Qin State changed another mode of war. They transferred all weapons and material transportation. What they paid was only cheap national debt and a piece of paper. Wait until the end of the war. At that time, in order to control the newly occupied land, they sold the land to private individuals in the name of the national debt. And the land was not sold in small pieces. It was sold for hundreds of acres and hundreds of acres. What's more. More than a thousand acres of land were sold." Li Zuoche only told Li Mu a small part of what he understood about the reform of the Qin State.

Li Mu did not speak.

"Not only externally, but internally. They allowed all the land to be merged. Ten acres of land began to merge into hundreds of acres of land at once. In this way, a large number of people entered the factory to work. This is why they produce so much. Weapons, materials. And those merging lands began to use slaves. They have powerful weapons as support. They can firmly control these slaves. These slaves can be put to death if they can't do anything. Moreover, after the land is contiguous, the management will be carried out. It's very simple. Not only that. The most important thing is Qin's banking industry. They issue paper money, absorb a large amount of capital, and then release it in a concentrated manner. In this way, all industries in Qin have capital." Although Li Zuoche said nothing Very comprehensive. But Li Mu has that kind of military space imagination ability. And what Li Zuoche said. Li Mu began to associate everything he saw and heard.

Li Mu nodded silently.

"It's not just capital. Qin's education system is also terrible. Their education is free. Moreover, Qin takes this very seriously. This is..." Li Zuoche obviously intends to do it with Zhao Guo Compare.

Li Mu and his party have been delayed in Qin for nearly a month. But this month is like looking at flowers in the mist to Li Mu. Can't see clearly. The same is true for Li Zuoche. But he has that kind of youthful vitality. He dared to accept things he hadn't seen.

Especially the military academy of Qin State. Although the military academy's military regulations are very strict. But academics there seem to be very relaxed. There, Li Mu received books representing capitalism for the first time. Such books are mainly "The Wealth of Nations" and books on enlightenment thought. Originally, these books shouldn't appear here. But because these books involve some military and economic aspects. In particular, the goal of Qin's foreign operations has changed. This leaves many instructors with no typical textbooks to use. Just when Han Fei was leaving, he returned these manuscripts to Shangwen. Shangwen threw it directly to the military academy.

The military academy should build a library modeled after Qin Guo University. Such books exist in military academies as teaching materials and as extracurricular supplementary books. Qin's printing industry can not only print newspapers, but also magazines and books. But professional books have not yet appeared. The main reason is that there is no Qin Guo currently devoted to management in the technical field. Especially the understanding of the subject theory is not very deep. Such books still haven't appeared.

But for this reason, such books have become a must-read book for every military school student, because they really lack too much reading. It was these readings that began to make some changes in the way of thinking of these young officers. It's not just young officers. Some middle-level staff officers have the same view.

Therefore, there are some bold people who write such articles, and Li Zuoche is just a person who can't wait to see such books and articles. The changes in Qin State deeply stimulated these people from backward countries. They actively abandoned the original set of thinking and began to accept new thinking. And to explore the idea of ​​how to change the destiny of the country.

Li Zuoche is such a representative. He is the same as the one in later generations. There are also excellent explanations in terms of strategy. But Li Mu fell into deeper thinking. reform.
