The small Handan, inconspicuous at this time, can be regarded as able to determine the fate of the Qin State in the next few decades.

After the three of them made their own preparations, they came forward and began to carry out activities in their official capacities, mixing the troubled waters of the checkmate of Zhao Guojun, the open and secret battles between the sons, and the hatred between the new and old nobles.

Suo Lushen, who was temporarily staying in Handan City, had already received a letter from Sishang, and also knew the news that those rebels had appeared in Handan.

He felt that these people must have had another purpose in coming to Handan, but he didn't know for the time being, because the short man and he were old acquaintances when he was young, they were both born in Lu and studied in Yuhuali, and they were also the descendants of the six surnames of Yin Shang who migrated to Zhou Gong at the beginning.

Because the person in charge of the Mo family on the Handan side hopes that Suo Lushen can talk to these people in his private capacity and ask for more things.

Both sides wanted to meet, so they met.

It is said that it is decades old, but after meeting, there is no joy of seeing each other.

After seeing these people, Solu asked with a smile: "I heard a few days ago that you are arguing with a new Mo master, and he is only in the rough passage, I am afraid it is impossible to express the morality of our Mo family. Do you come here today to argue about this? ”

This is talking about "the morality of our Mo family", which is to remind these people that they have betrayed Mo, but they are old and no longer have that comradeship.

The tall man smiled and said, "How can I argue with you, the great cunning of the East?" You don't have to say anything that is right to be undefeated, that it has nothing to do with people, or anything like that. Today we don't talk about right and wrong, we don't talk about morality, we just talk about it casually. ”

He has confessed, and can be regarded as ashamedly admitting that the truth of the Mo family is right, and completely blocked the way where Suo Lu Shen might argue with him, Suo Lu Shen smiled and said: "In this case, then drink, don't talk about morality, only talk about something else." ”

"I heard that Sheng Xuan has already changed the law in Qindi? Speaking of which, I don't judge right or wrong morally, I only talk about whether it is beneficial or not. ”

When the short man heard this, he nodded and smiled, and was about to speak, but was stopped by the tall man.

The tall man looked at Suo Lushen and said with a smile: "Whether it is beneficial or not, this is the Mo family's statement." The key is 'is whether it is good for whom', and you don't omit it to whom. If there is no one who is in favor, there is no way to judge right from wrong. The Mohists say that what is good for all the people is what is beneficial, and what we say is different from what you think. Therefore, I still want to hear whether you think it is beneficial to Qin Jun and us. ”

When the short man heard this, he secretly wiped his sweat and was frightened, thinking that if he didn't argue with the Mo family in the past twenty years, this method was indeed much worse. If he hadn't added such a sentence, I was afraid that Solushen would have seized the opportunity to criticize us, and then it would have been embarrassing.

I thought again, it was really the first choice for the trip to the extreme west, this person's mind was delicate and his words were changeable, and he couldn't be alert. Although he is not a top figure within the Mo family, he is far better than ordinary people, so he should not be careless.

Hearing this, Suo Lu only smiled slightly, and said, "Then I will listen to you, and I will discuss whether it is beneficial to Qin Jun and you." ”

Only then did the tall man say: "Speaking of which, the transformation in Qindi is a total of three steps. ”

"The first step is to move the capital and change the land...... This relocation of the capital and the change of land is like this, seven years ago......"

When this person talked about moving the capital and changing the land, he started talking about Qin Gongzi's return to the country at the beginning.

Nie Zheng stabbed Qin Jun to death, Qin Jun was just an adult and had no heirs, the nobles were fighting, Qin Gongzi even seized the opportunity to get rid of the surveillance of Wei Hou, and succeeded in ascending the throne with the help of Sheng Xuan and others and the old acquaintances of Qin Di, pulling one faction to fight another, first disposing of a group of political enemies on the grounds of a coup d'état, rewarding those nobles who supported him, and distributing benefits by relying on the fiefs vacated by the death of those political enemies.

Subsequently, in the name of not forgetting the hatred of seizing the West River, he stirred up the emotions of the domestic nobles and used this excuse to move the capital.

When the slogan was shouted, it was difficult for the nobles to oppose it directly, and moved the capital from Yongcheng, which was further west, to the place where Jingwei and Wei clearly intersected, and built a new city.

When the nobles objected, they attacked them for colluding with the Wei State, and the nobles could not object to such a big hat.

In fact, the reason for moving the capital was not to seize the West River at all, at least not now, because the Wei State is now in full swing, and it is impossible to take it back. The fundamental reason is to avoid Yongcheng, where the old nobles are gathered, where it is impossible to exert itself at all, and it is hindered everywhere.

After the capital was moved, Qin Jun changed his land, exchanging the land that had previously disposed of his political enemies with the nobles, and did not directly deprive the nobles of the fiefs near the new capital, but used the method of exchange to turn the land hundreds of miles near Weishui Jingshui into the direct jurisdiction of Qin Jun.

In this way, lay the foundation for change.

When it comes to it, it's a breeze. But behind these light-hearted words, there are countless conspiracies, deaths, coups, and Yi tribes, and people are rolling.

After listening to the first step of moving the capital and changing land, Suo Lushen nodded and said, "If you look at the advantages of Qin Jun and you people, this step is very good. ”

The tall man smiled: "This is also thanks to what the Mo family did before." Before Sishang, although the giant had morality, no one was willing to listen to the monarch. The monarch of a weak country thinks of us when he defends the city, but it is impossible to change after defending the city. ”

However, after Shi went to the Mo family, the Mo family had a foundation in Sishang, and after the first battle of Shangqiu, this speech had weight, and the princes listened. You see, aren't you also relying on Pengcheng in Peixian County to occupy ...... now No, do righteousness in the fifteen countries of Sishang. ”

"Put it in Qindi, isn't it the same? Qin Jun's great-ancestor was forced to kill by the ministers, the nobility is powerful, and if he wants to change, it is better to leave first and accumulate strength. ”

"Ten thousand birds in the forest are better than one bird in hand. If a bird is in hand, it will not die of hunger, so that it can make a bow and sharpen arrows, and then catch ten thousand birds. ”

"It's good to say, contradictions and interests, after grasping this and analyzing it, the contradictions cannot be alleviated, and we will always meet each other in the future. Instead of being a nominal and unreal monarch who can be forced to be killed by nobles, it is better to be the biggest feudal monarch in Qin Land first......"

Suo Lushen nodded and said, "Being able to think of this, it seems that you have learned the morality of the Mo family over the years." ”

The tall man nodded and said, "The truth is right, the key is how to use it." and when the people know it, they may seek their gain; We know that we can also seek our benefit. ”

Since he had already said before, he could not say anything else about right and wrong by morality, and after asking some more details, the tall man said the second step.

"This relocation of the capital and land is the first step. The second step is to change the law in the county. ”

The change of the county law is the next step of the previous relocation of the capital and land.

Because after the land exchange, there were no big nobles in the land near the new capital, so the nearby hundreds of miles of land were placed in three counties.

The people were compiled, the population was counted, the amount of land was counted, the land directly under the jurisdiction was divided into three counties, and the law was changed in these three places where there would be no conflict with the aristocracy.

After counting the population and the amount of arable land, he used the tax horses to buy a large number of iron farming tools from the Mo family.

All the land in the three counties belonged to Qin Jun, so the land was re-granted and distributed according to the number of acres and 100 mu granted to each household.

Those who have cultivated land are not distributed iron tools first.

For those lands that were not granted enough and needed to be cultivated, iron tools were allocated.

The right to use the land belongs to private households, but it is strictly forbidden to buy and sell, and Qin Jun's identity is equivalent to changing from Qin Jun to the only big landlord in the three counties.

After each household divided the land, the tax was paid directly to Qin Jun, and the tax was collected and one was collected, and the tax was accumulated at the level of the sixty-one tax.

Although there is a lot of June 1st tax, compared with the previous layers of aristocratic fiefdoms, the people are overjoyed and think that it is good governance.

Suppress merchants with heavy taxes, implement the policy of monopolizing industry and commerce by Qin Jun, and use the trade exchange monopoly of Xiqiang such as Heyiqu to accumulate wealth, while making it impossible for merchants to accumulate wealth, and concentrate wealth in the hands of Qin Jun.

Distribute land according to household registration, because with a normal population, one household can cultivate 100 acres of land is already the limit, and there is no motivation or energy to cultivate more.

The wanton suppression of merchants, the fact that land could not be bought and sold, and the point of cultivating more land, coupled with the policy of imposing a progressive tax on the number of people in the household, forced the separation of households, and at the same time increased income, it could also ensure that "primitive accumulation by relying on agricultural reclamation" could not be completed.

It is strictly forbidden to migrate and change industries, and the "Escape Law" was promulgated, and once anyone who fled to the mountains and forests was caught, he was immediately reduced to a slave and sitting.

The movement of the population was strictly controlled, and the direction in which the people might flee, so that the people could not survive except for ploughing the land, and had to work on the land.

Ban any recreational activities that affect agricultural production, prohibit martyrdom, prohibit the sacrifice of Hebo, encourage archery, martial arts, wrestling and other recreational activities during the agricultural slack, and the rest of the activities are illegal, and they will be severely punished after being caught.

It is strictly forbidden to study the customs, and it is strictly forbidden for the doctrines of various countries to spread in the three counties, and foreign merchants can trade, but if they give lectures, they will be severely punished, and the people are strictly forbidden to hear the rest of the voices.

The grain trade was illegal, and unless Qin Jun personally purchased it, the merchants who bought and sold the grain, once caught, were immediately severely punished and degraded as slaves.

Uniform pricing for handicrafts should be implemented, and handicraftsmen and merchants should not be allowed to resell without permission, and handicraftsmen and merchants should not be allowed to obtain high profits from peasant households.

The construction of various workshops directly belongs to Qin Jun, and all those who work in the workshops are not allowed to change their careers. Because they were not given land, there was no possibility of survival except to work in the workshop. Coupled with the fact that merchants could not buy or sell grain, it was difficult for these people to survive even if they had money.

The increase in the commercial tax makes the price of some non-essential handicrafts increase in order to obtain profits, so that the farmers hate the merchants and feel that the merchants are cheating them, and at the same time, it is difficult for the merchants to make a profit by increasing the taxes, so that the farmers do not want to be merchants.

A universal military service system was introduced, and according to the experience of the Mohists in Sishang, young people of appropriate age served in the army, while those who did not fit the age were required to serve in the army.

Forced construction of water conservancy and excavation of irrigation canals.

The more grain and cloth you pay, the fewer days you can serve, and the more people are encouraged to produce.

The five households were divided into horses or a ploughing ox, and there were iron tools, but they only had the right to use, and did not implement the policy of buying and returning to individuals in installments, as in Sishang.

After a series of policies were spoken, Solushen's face was already a little ugly, but the tall man said: "I know what you want to say, but even so, the people's lives are still much better than before, and the people's hearts are uplifted, and they all shout long live." You have no idea what kind of life they had before...... June 1 heavy tax, the people even called good governance, you can think about it before. Juzi once said that the people have three troubles, and if we do this, will it also benefit the people of the Qin Kingdom? ”
