Chapter 468 Everything has to start from the root, to prevent the micro and the gradual.
"promise."
He nodded and agreed. At this moment, Li Si's expression also became awe-inspiring. He naturally knew why Emperor Shin-chan ordered the transfer of 100,000 wealthy families to fill Xianyang when the Qin Empire had just been established.
These people are the biggest troubles to put in the local area, and at this moment, Daqin's rule over the county is almost a vacuum, and it is necessary to use powerful means.
As the prime minister of the empire, Li Si attached great importance to this matter. He knew in his heart that if it weren't for these local tyrants who acted as protective umbrellas for the remnants of the six countries and anti-Qin forces.
How did these people still escape and disappear under the pursuit of the Qin Empire?
Local tyrants must be rectified.
They have been able to use their clan power to coerce local county magistrates and constantly erode the ruling foundation of the Qin Empire.
The First Emperor naturally could not tolerate this. The reason why he did not have a key blow was that the court at that time had just established a country and had too many things to care about.
It can only be recommended in turn.
At this moment, Li Si keenly realized that while Emperor First Emperor was controlling the power of merchants, he also started to attack local powerful forces.
As soon as he thought of this, the little Jiujiu in his heart was instantly extinguished. He could discuss other things with Ying Zheng, and even let Ying Zheng make a little concession, leaving room for maneuver.
However, when it comes to the foundation of the empire's rule, whoever dares to stop him will die.
Feng Quji is the best example.
"In recent years, the Qin Empire has just been established, and it is inevitable that there will be some negligence in the local area. The local powerful forces have developed rapidly, and a group of powerful people have appeared in various places who have bullied the weak with the strong, and have bullied the weak with the masses and the few, and have rampant in the villages."
"These heroes often gather, build walls, repair armor and soldiers, and harm one side."
Li Si and others may have expected it, but they are destined not as clear as Ying Zheng knows about the terror of these powerful forces.
Ying Zheng took a sip of tea and spoke solemnly at Li Si, saying, "Once these powerful forces in the places are left uncontrollable, they will become increasingly popular."
"At that time, they will control the people, manipulate local governments, and influence central decision-making, and have a very strong power."
Speaking of this, Ying Zheng looked calm, but there were waves deep in his heart.
He knew in his heart that these powerful people were not simple. History has recorded that during the Three Kingdoms period, Fan Xian wanted to kill Ji to power the people. He went to visit Ji and killed more than 30 people under his sect, and Ji was calm."
This is the only social murder incident in local tyrants recorded in historical records.
At that time, the prefect of Hedong, Wang Yi, was diligent in office and loved the people, but Cao Cao could not trust him and wanted to recruit him back to the capital and let Du Ji serve as the prefect of Hedong.
Wang Yi was unwilling to leave, so he sent the county magistrate Wei Gu, and the general of the Central Army Fan Xian to the superior, the Sili County Chief Zhong Yao, requesting the cancellation of the recruitment. Zhong Yao flatly refused and ordered Wang Yi to hand over the seal talisman as soon as possible and let Du Ji take over the position.
He asked Cao Cao to send Xiahou Dun to lead the army to attack Wei Gu and Fan Xian, and clear obstacles for Du Ji to take office.
Du Ji disagreed with Zhong Yao's proposal, dissuaded Cao Cao, and asked a single horse to rush to Hedong to take office.
Du Ji and Hedong chief Wei Gu were old friends and had some friendship, but they had no relationship with the Central Army General Fan Xian. As soon as Du Ji arrived in Hedong, Fan Xian had murderous intentions.
He told Wei Gu that being a tiger but not daring to eat human flesh is what a tiger? Now that Du Ji is kept, there will be future troubles.
Wei Gu hesitated. Fan Xian wanted to kill Du Ji to intimidate everyone, but also wanted to observe Du Ji's whereabouts, so he executed more than 30 officials below the chief clerk under the sect.
Du Ji was calm and behaved normally when it came to this matter. Fan Xian felt that Du Ji was easy to control, so he regarded him as the prefect.
How lawless it is to kill more than 30 officials in front of the prefect sent by the court. This is a ruthless trampling on the law. Ying Zheng knew that in the Qin Empire, there is no powerful force without this energy.
Instead, they are now intimidated by the power of the Qin soldiers sweeping across the six countries in Shandong and are hiding dormant.
It was precisely because he saw this scene in the memory he got from Li Kang by chance that he had made up his mind to attack the powerful forces.
Ying Zheng's words made Li Si frightened. He could sense Ying Zheng's inner worries and the fierce murderous intent that was hidden and unreleased.
This host is determined to have murderous intent, and the local powerful forces are afraid that this time they will have to pay the price of blood.
Suppressing the fear in his heart, Li Si said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, regarding the prohibition legislation, currency legislation, market law, maritime law, accounting legislation, audit legislation, etc.."
"I also know some prohibited legislation and market change laws, but I don't know much about other things. Can you please explain it in detail?"
This is Li Si.
He is extremely cautious in dealing with people and things. He knows that he will naturally handle it directly without asking a word.
However, he didn't understand this, and he would definitely not be ashamed to ask, because Li Si knew that only by figuring out the intentions and plans of the First Emperor could he do this well.
This is also the most prominent feature of the Great Qin Empire in this era. Both the Great Qin officials and the people of the Great Qin Empire are extremely pragmatic.
They never play vain.
Looking at Li Si, Ying Zheng smiled, and he knew that these things were a little embarrassed by the prime minister.
"The state sells goods except salt and iron, and adds a variety of commodities such as coal and wine."
"For the control of salt, iron, wine, coal and other products, it is clear that the three tribes of salt are decomposed privately, three dou of wine are brewed, fifteen kilograms of wine are made, and ten kilograms of iron are smelted, all of which are destroyed."
"Shang Jun had already proposed a salt and iron monopoly back then, and I, the Qin Dynasty, have been implementing it all, but times have changed, so the Qin law will naturally change accordingly."
"At the same time, the currency legislation was added. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, metal coins were mainly circulated, including copper coins and bronze coins."
"Our Great Qin Empire also mainly uses bronze coins. The manufacturing, issuance, circulation, exchange, and currency value are all controlled by the government, and it is strictly forbidden for the public to mint coins privately."
"In the new legislation, this should be clearly stipulated: "Those who mint money privately will destroy the three tribes."
...........
Ying Zheng knew that currency legislation must be cruel, and now the Qin Empire mainly focuses on bronze currency.
However, with the rise of merchants, the vigorous development of handicrafts, light industry and heavy industry in the Qin Empire, then the bronze currency will not be suitable for the current era.
Especially when money houses, the emergence of this ancient bank will inevitably lead to the birth of paper money.
Although the birth of banknotes is an improvement, it also means that banknotes are more likely to be imitated.
This must be eliminated in legislation.
However, Ying Zheng also knew that under the temptation of huge interests, countless people wanted to take risks.
