The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 900: New aristocracy

"Since Qin's business reforms, Qin has always pursued the policy of strengthening the country and poor people." Zhang Liang explained. The Book of Shang Jun has been known to the Koreans. Although some of Shangjun's political views were not favored. But Korean college students understand. These policies of the State of Qin really made the State of Qin embark on a path of strength.

"Shangjun's view is that the country and the people are opposed and cannot be unified. If the country is strong, then the people must be poor. Only the people are poor and poor. Only the people can make the country prosperous and strong." Zhang Liang explained.

"And once the people get rich, then the national strength will be weakened. This is the reason that the people are strong, the country is weak. And the country is strong, the people are poor." Zhang Liang said slowly. The college student below nodded. They still know the truth.

"The strength of the Qin country is based on the self-sacrifice of the people of the Qin country. Take the Qin people fighting for example. Why do the people of the Qin country fight so fiercely? When they hear of a war, they will be bareheaded and shirtless. They will move forward bravely and without fear. Regardless of life and death. Why?" Zhang Liang asked.

"It's because the people are poor. If the people are poor, the people will make progress. If you make progress, you will inevitably strive to become stronger." Zhang Liang said. And the college student below nodded in recognition.

"And at this time. The merchant's national policy of rewarding farming and warfare allowed these poor people to see a way out. Either farm and produce more food. Or go to the battlefield to fight the enemy bravely."

"One of the two paths must be chosen. Food has solved the problem of rations for the State of Qin. Soldiers went to the battlefield to kill the enemy bravely, and solved the morale and bravery on the battlefield of the State of Qin. How can such a country not be strong? How can the six nations' armies be able to reconcile Such military operations?" Zhang Liang used rhetorical questions to question the college students in the audience at this time.

Can college students nod their heads when they hear such a question? Qin’s laws were compiled and printed in books by South Korea. Qin's legal profession is named after this research. Also studied by Korean college students.

When these college students saw that Qin's legal documents were very detailed and rigorous. They had to exclaim Qin's crazy behavior. These legal provisions were given to Koreans. Koreans simply cannot accept it. Because it is too rigorous. What kind of shoes must be worn by someone who is rigorous, otherwise, it is illegal. Then according to different laws and regulations, the punishments imposed are different. Such strict laws are compared with the legal documents of the six countries. It's a world of difference. When Koreans admire the rigorous style of Qin people. They are also thinking about such issues. The law becomes stricter. Is it good?

The answer is yes. The advantages of rigorous laws outweigh the disadvantages. If things are specific and detailed. Although within the scope of South Korea’s understanding, they believe that such a detailed law must be cumbersome, but the Qin people who pay attention to practical effects have made the law so practical. This is also far beyond the expectations of the Koreans.

Take the Qin State Military Law as an example. The soldiers are divided into twenty ranks from low to high. The meals eaten at each level are different. The number of heads decapitated by soldiers on the battlefield and the heads captured by a team of one hundred people in the State of Qin has a clearly defined number. These rules made Qin soldiers become more efficient. At the same time, it also made the Qin Jun truly become the teacher of the tiger and wolf. The Koreans thoroughly studied the laws of Qin. If you follow Qin's set. It is very likely that South Korea will become the second Qin country.

"If we follow the laws of the Qin State, we may also become the second Qin State in South Korea. However, although this state policy is strong, the power of the people will inevitably be weakened. The nobles of the six countries will certainly not see it like this. Because the nobles, no I hope to see the rise of new forces. The rise of new forces will inevitably affect the interests of the nobles of the six countries." Zhang Liang really hit the point at this time.

Correct. The core of the Qin State's establishment of a farming war is to promote the rise of new aristocratic powers. Reward farming wars. Ordinary Qin people can get the title. What does knighthood mean to Chinese people who pay attention to family traditions? The title can be passed down. The father's death in battle can be passed on to his son. After the son can have the title. You can get the status of social equality. Even an expert must not be allowed.

in that era. Wealth and status are distributed according to blood. It is impossible for ordinary people to get the title at all. It was before the Qin State, and so was the Six Nations. Why Qin’s reform was successful. However, the Six Nations Reform has failed many times. In other words, there is a generation of reforms. And the next generation is gradually weakening. Finally beaten. For example, Qi Guo is. This is because of the obstruction of the nobility. The old aristocracy did everything possible to block the infusion of fresh power. The injection of fresh power will inevitably change the changes in the original pattern. Qin unified the world. The potential goal is the existence of nobles in the six countries. Although Shang Wen didn't know the potential existence of the nobles in the six countries. However, it unintentionally promotes the change of the old and new forces. This change comes from the changes within the six countries themselves.

The nobles of the six countries are vested interests, and they do not want to change the current situation. Nor do they want to change the benefits they have already received. The Qin State is a top-down reform. This reform measure comes from the will of the emperor, to a large extent, the emperor of the Qin emperor. Let Qin be the most powerful country among the six countries. The same is true in other countries, but it has not been fixed in accordance with the legal form. But Qin State was fixed.

It has to be said that this is the luckiest place in Qin. However, the reform is a compromise between the interests of the upper and lower classes, and the new forces. Although Qin's reform was successful, the reform itself was a kind of compromise. This compromise is a compromise between the nobility and the fresh power. The interests of the nobility were broken. The nobles had to make progress. As the price of damage to their interests, they persecuted those who made the rules. To a large extent, Shangjun lost his life. And it was the tragic death of the hands of others. But Qin State received an injection of fresh power.

The next state of Qin. Every time there is an infusion of fresh power, for example, Zhang Yi, Fan Sui, Lu Buwei and so on. These are fresh representatives of the new nobles. As a representative of fresh forces. In order to fight against their opponents, they would fight against the old nobles from the very beginning. In order to fight against these nobles, they will inevitably adopt some new policies to build meritorious services for the Qin State. Because the rule is to make a huge contribution to the strength of Qin. With a contribution, everything is naturally easy to say.

Zhang Yi's contradiction has been resolved before. The old aristocracy killed Shang Yang, and the conflict between Fan Sui was largely due to the struggle with military commanders. The consequence of these alternations of the old and the new is that the political changes in Qin are far more exciting than the political struggles of the six countries.

This is the drawback. The alternating forces between the new and the old are constantly changing. The old cannot protect vested interests. And the new one is determined to make progress. Although Qin State is strong. But the upper-level political struggle is quite "exciting." This can also explain why it was Li Si's time. Li Si persecuted Prince Fusu and General Meng Tian for his own benefit. Push the pillars of Qin to this point. Because Li Si wants to end this development. He wants to keep the glory and wealth of the Li family. For this, he had to do this.

Qin's sorrow is here. When Shang Jun formulated this country's legal system, he would never think that his system had an irreconcilable contradiction from the very beginning. This contradiction has turned Qin into a misfortune.

According to the original historical development. The strong fighting will of the Qin Army has never been disintegrated in more than a hundred years, and in the final stage, it was completely disintegrated because of the serious political struggle at the upper level. This result is so frustrating. At this point, I am afraid that Shang Jun even felt a little helpless in the world.

Looking at the nobles of the six countries. The nobles of the six countries have no such threat, because the country does not have such a system. Moreover, slaves and civilians have no such opportunity for promotion. There is no such intersection between upper and lower fresh blood. The interests of the nobility were maintained, and the commoners had no chance to enter the upper echelons. Therefore, the entire Six Nations looks so lifeless, they will fight hard only to protect their vested interests. But how can the individual power of the nobles be the opponents of the overall strength of the Qin State? Under the pressure of this huge war machine of Qin State. The interests of the nobility will not be guaranteed for a long time. After losing interest. These nobles, especially after the destruction of the Six Nations. These nobles became the backbone of the anti-Qin. This also explains why Qin Shihuang's huge hidden dangers were exposed after his death.

The nobles of the Six Nations are an invisible and intangible force. But these forces must not be ignored. Shangwen didn't know that there were such forces at first. However, Zhang Liang is potentially aware of the great threat that such a noble power poses to South Korea's development. Because South Korea also has such power.

But Shangwen's national policy is slowly digesting this power. Let the Six Nations generate new power to destroy the nobles. This power is the rising civilian power. The power of the common people will form a kind of confrontation with the nobles of the six countries. This antagonistic force can be called the new capitalist force.

Behind the rapid development of Qin State is the rapid rise of this kind of power. Shangwen's several measures have inadvertently resolved the internal malaise of Qin State.

The power and wealth of officials, or those motivated fresh forces, are divided. First of all, officials have a second career, that is, before or after becoming an official, an official must have a career that can earn a living. . Regardless of the profession, they are all equal in Qin. This allows those who are motivated to see hope and opportunity. At the same time, everyone is equal. It also resolves the situation of fighting each other because of their status. Because the emergence of this situation will destroy the domestic instability of a country. It is an important issue that needs to be solved very much for a powerful country.

Occupation has the right to freely choose. This has more options than the Shang prince’s farming war. Moreover, the status is still equal. In this way, this part of the motivated force is channelled.

Secondly. Qin State opened up the commercial road. Shangwen’s commercial operation has allowed Qin to taste the benefits and also cultivated a large number of Qin entrepreneurs, who have become supporters of Shangwen’s New Deal. Although they have no power, they have wealth, and more people enter the circle of business operations in large numbers in order to pursue wealth. The high-efficiency talents needed in this circle are far greater than Qin's own imagination. All kinds of technical talents, all kinds of management talents, and all kinds of marketing talents and so on. These talent demands attracted all Shandong scholars who went to be officials. Not only that, Qin also cultivated its own talents through these operations.

Among Qin's new civil officials. Most of them come from business management. Their management experience has drawn up new impetus and plans for Qin to govern the country. Many of these programs are based on the scope of business operations. In this way, the efficiency of the use of social resources has been greatly improved. Qin's work efficiency is as high as the previous work efficiency. It has to be said that this is a miracle.

There is another important reason behind this miracle. The reason for this is that the new group formed by these various talents is the new "noble" group on the capitalist road of the Qin State. The emergence of the power of this group gradually replaced those who were overly motivated and pursued the destructive pattern of politics. The new power gained wealth. The old forces have gained power. This seems to be balanced. But in fact. Shang Wen is slowly changing this balance.

While the Qin State vigorously expanded its territory. Qin State attracted a large number of immigrants. Territorial expansion. population growth. But Qin State was unable to digest so much territory and resources at once. Especially management. Qin State has never managed such a large territory.

If the county system is implemented. Oh my goodness. Qin suddenly added more than fifty counties. Nearly a thousand counties came. The helplessness of Qin State made Shang Wen see an opportunity. The opportunity for power that has been allocated to new forces. This opportunity is to establish a parliamentary system in remote areas. This system can satisfy the balance of power among the new aristocrats in Qin.

The parliamentary system was originally established to achieve a balance of power. Although Shangwen is not good at reading history, he can only say one or two about the process of the great events of the year, but he can't accurately match the number. This is certainly a shortcoming of Shangwen, but it is also Shangwen's advantage, and it is precisely this. This kind of shortcoming gives Shangwen a new perspective to look at the problem that is difficult for others to have. The balance of power in China is too poor, and as long as the power changes slightly, the influence on Chinese politics will be greater. This kind of power imbalance, especially one party's power is too strong, and then quickly collapses, and then the other power slowly becomes too strong. This kind of power imbalance has almost become a common problem in ancient Chinese history, in order to change this common problem. Shang Wen can be said to have worked hard.

He believes that only the use of this parliamentary system can solve all problems. Because the parliament is a place where power is concentrated. But the forces of all parties are balanced in the parliament. Businessmen, soldiers, politicians, and all kinds of other people all participated. The advantage of participating is that power is balanced. And no one can get the dominance. This guarantees a certain degree of fairness. There is also the balance of power.

at this point. Such a system was established in the newly established state of Qin State. The emergence of the parliament has given new power groups the opportunity to enter the center of power, and they can express their opinions. At the same time, they can also negotiate to reach a consensus to solve the problem. In particular, the issue of the direction of the relationship owner has been resolved.

Thus. The new force is no longer an individual or a small team, which is Shangwen's most objectionable oligarchy. Shangwen's current situation is such a situation. Because he and anyone can talk about the past, but no one can continue to sustain it. Because he supports a large group, and this group is the new capitalist power of Qin. These forces are slowly taking root and growing in Qin's newly established state.

The political structure of the oligarchy has been potentially changed. Although the current political pattern of Qin State is still like this. However, Qin has new hopes for development after all.

The most important thing is that Qin has temporarily maintained this huge territory control situation. If Qin State forces control it, Shangwen's idea cannot be implemented. Qin's parliamentary system will not be implemented.

Although, King Qin initially accepted Shangwen because the local power was empty and unbalanced, and he did it in order to ensure the power of the central government. But Shangwen solved a potential hidden danger of Qin after all, that is, the balance of local and central power. The pattern of Chinese politics in which a long time must be combined and a long time must be divided has also been contained to a certain extent.

These are the areas where Shangwen consciously carries out reforms. The conditions for the rise of new forces are met. Then, how should the power of those old forces dissolve? Shangwen's solution was to allow those nobles to participate in the various commercial activities of the Qin State. Because commercial activities can bring a lot of wealth, at the same time, it also changed the single development model of Qin.

influenced by. There has been a lot of investment boom in Qin. Especially stocks. Bonds, and the emergence of various futures commodity markets. Let the funds and wealth in the hands of the nobles be protected and increased.

A large amount of King Qin's private wealth entered commercial activities. These funds have entered various industries, Qin's banks, Qin's military production, railways, highways and transportation networks, as well as the exploitation and use of various resources. These all have the shadow of royal funds. Not only that. Some nobles also participated in the entry. For example, Wang Jian, another example, Yingyu's approach is this way of operation. In this way, the funds in the hands of the Qin nobles were favorably channeled. The power of the Qin nobles was protected and their wealth increased. Both parties have benefited.

These practices of Shangwen are actually transforming the nobles of Qin in a disguised form. The biggest shortcoming of the nobility is that it hinders the entry of new forces in order to safeguard vested interests. Such development can easily stabilize the society. This kind of stability will lead to a serious change in equality, especially that equality. This kind of thing will happen similar to that of the Jin Dynasty. The nobles do not have any upward spirit. This will also make society less enterprising. This is a disaster in itself for a country and a nation.

However, after entering the commercial competition. This trend will be changed. First of all, in order to obtain wealth, in order to increase wealth. Those nobles will do everything possible to carry out commercial activities. These activities motivate the nobility to become elitist, and they will deliberately choose how to adapt to the talents of commercial activities for management. In this way, the aristocracy becomes elite in disguise. At the same time, it also maintains the aggressive spirit of the nobility.

These are a series of results obtained by Shangwen reform.

Compared with these achievements of Qin State. The approach of the Six Nations is a bit more old-fashioned.

The nobles of the Six Nations were not determined to make progress. They are often satisfied with their own interests. Never disregard the opportunities of the lower classes and pursue the demands of wealth. They will only blindly suppress and suppress, and this suppression has led to many abnormal behaviors. In order to gain power and wealth, they would kill their son as a king's delicacy. Even in order to obtain these power and wealth, you can give away your wife. Or become a clown-like character.

This kind of loss of nature and no moral standards at all is really a reflection.

But the lower classes live a life like a day without a head. There is no hope in them. There is no chance at all, they are born slaves. The lives of civilians, then their descendants will not do anything. These are the important reasons why the Six Nations cannot be compared with Qin State. The important reason why the Six Nations is not strong is here.

The people really hope to have such an opportunity. But the aristocracy of the six countries who controlled the distribution of power and wealth would not give civilians and slaves such opportunities. This is the important reason why the Six Nations could not beat the Qin State. Because Qin State also gave this opportunity. And the nobles of the Six Nations would not even give such an opportunity. This kind of monopoly control of power and wealth has led to people's excessive superstition and abnormal mentality development of power and wealth. This is also the major source of the abnormal psychology of the Chinese for thousands of years. Every dynasty monopolized this distribution, and the common people did not have this or that opportunity for promotion. They have no hope, no chance. Even if there is, it will only do what the people above mean. This also leads to a more abnormal state of this deformed mentality.

But now, Shangwen's peaceful diplomacy is affecting the occurrence of this situation. such as. This is the case in South Korea. In order for the Queen of South Korea to obtain the throne, this is a self-demand. But this situation is also changing.

In order to obtain the throne, the Queen of South Korea used a large number of civilians and slaves. Because the nobles could not give her help and support, on the contrary, some still stood on the opposite side of him. In order to get the throne, she needs the help of the State of Qin. The consequence of the help of the State of Qin is that slaves and civilians have this opportunity. After they helped the queen get the throne. In order to protect their interests, they must do everything possible to combat their opponents. At this time, the opposing power of a nobleman appeared. The "new aristocracy" among the aristocrats of the six countries.
