Ying Zheng stared at Li Shui for a long time, then sighed and said, "Tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

Li Shui said in surprise: "Didn't I already say it? I want my great Qin to live forever."

Ying Zheng said: "Your method is to turn Da Qin into a court for the poor?"

Li Shui said: "The court is not a court for the poor, but a court for the majority."

"Your Majesty, you can think about it, if our Great Qin becomes a court for the majority of people, it will be more stable?"

Ying Zheng thought for a while, then nodded.

He said to Li Shui: "Besides attacking the clan, what else do you plan to do?"

Li Shui said: "Land is the foundation of farmers and the people. Although we are now practicing merchants, the world is completely new and full of vitality."

"But the world today is actually not even. It looks like Xianyang is the center. People here are very wealthy, and there are opportunities everywhere."

"As for Guanzhong outside Xianyang City, it's a little more difficult. But the people don't have to worry about food and clothing. They can have enough food and clothing. But if you want to eat well, play around when you have nothing to do, or go fast, it's more difficult.

.”

"As for Kanto... the north is okay. The south is vast and sparsely populated, and has experienced wars, so it is very poor."

"So, within 20 to 30 years, land will be very important to the people."

"Therefore, I strongly recommend that land sales be prohibited. In this way, no matter in years of disaster or famine, landlords cannot annex land. Farmers will always have a way to make a living."

"As long as the people can survive and will not rebel, our country, Qin, will naturally be stable."

Ying Zheng pondered for a while and said: "Have you ever thought about it, farmers actually know this truth. But why did they sell the land in the end?"

"Just because they don't sell their land, they can't survive. If land sales are banned, of course it will prevent landlords from annexing land. But those farmers have no way to survive and can only starve to death."

Li Shui said: "I have already thought about this. We can ban land sales, but there is no need to ban land leasing. And set a term of lease, with a maximum lease period of three years."

"In this way, landowners have no incentive to take advantage of the opportunity to lower prices and plunder. In addition, trains are gradually traveling across the country. Once a disaster occurs in a place, food can be delivered within a few days. At that time, the villagers do not have to sell

The ground is gone.”

"In addition, if the villagers really need money to survive the lean period, they can borrow money from the court. We can provide it with low interest or even no interest."

"The imperial court can use the taxes paid by merchants to subsidize the poor farmers. I believe that within a few decades, Great Qin will be able to eradicate poverty."

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction.

Li Shui said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, so we..."

Ying Zheng said calmly: "If it is feasible, you can first write a detailed charter."

Li Shui agreed.

Ying Zheng said: "For such a big thing, we should first find a place to pilot it, and then implement it nationwide. You did it too hastily this time."

Li Shui responded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I am too anxious."

Ying Zheng said: "I will punish you."

Li Shui coughed dryly and said, "Yes, I am guilty."

Ying Zheng said: "I'll fine you one year's salary."

Li Shui looked heartbroken and said, "Yes, yes, I will definitely learn a lesson."

Li Xin looked on with helplessness: A salary penalty? What's the difference between this and no penalty? Brother Huai's family has several Jinshan Mountains, does he lack that salary? Your Majesty's partiality is too obvious.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said calmly: "Okay, you two can leave."

Li Shui coughed dryly and said to Ying Zheng: "The matter about the fake messenger today..."

Ying Zheng said calmly: "You don't have to worry about those things. I will find out the truth."

Li Shui agreed, and left with Li Xin smiling.

When walking out of Ying Zheng's study, Li Xin said with emotion: "Brother Huai, I have always been curious about why you can win in this dangerous court many times. How did you do it?"

Li Shui said: "It's actually very simple, because I have a heart that loves the Qin Dynasty and is loyal to His Majesty. Nothing I do is out of self-interest. In this case, being strong without desire is invincible.

"

Li Xin: "..."

This person is really shameless.

Don’t want personal gain? Could it be that the gold and silver in Shangjun’s courtyard were donated by others?

…………

In the post house, Zhao Si was writing a letter home.

What happened in the court today made him a little frightened.

Unexpectedly, the struggle in the Great Qin court was so fierce. So many people attacked the banished immortals, and so many people confused right and wrong and ignored the facts.

As soon as Zhao Si entered the court, he was immediately involved in this storm.

He suddenly felt worried, wondering if he could come back alive in this life.

Zhao Si picked up his pen, thought for a long time, and began to write down line after line.

He described the risks he encountered, his fears and worries...

I wrote thousands of words eloquently.

After finishing writing, Zhao Si seemed to have finished venting his anger and threw Bi into several cases.

He picked up the piece of paper and read it again. While reading, the image of his wife appeared in his mind.

What would happen if my wife saw this letter? She would be horrified and shed tears.

Thinking of this, Zhao Si rolled up the paper, put it on a lamp and lit it.

The piece of paper burned out quickly, and then Zhao Si took a deep breath and started writing again.

He did not write about the affairs of the court, but took the trouble to explain some other matters.

For example, how much land does the family have? How many houses does the family have?

For example, if I am no longer here, how should I educate my son?

For example, if something happens, you can go to an elder in the clan.

Everything is explained clearly and clearly.

After finishing writing, Zhao Si felt very at ease and felt that he could finally feel at ease.

However, he shook his head again.

This letter looks too much like a suicide note.

Moreover, his wife is not that stupid.

Zhao Si thought for a while and burned the letter again.

He took another piece of paper and wrote a few lines: Everything is fine, don't worry and don't think about it. I'll be back in a few days and reunite with you.

After writing it, Zhao Si sealed the piece of paper in an envelope and handed it to his entourage.

He said to his entourage: "You go and leave Xianyang, a place of right and wrong, as soon as possible.

The attendant asked: "What about you, sir?"

Zhao Si said: "Me? I can't leave for the time being. When I go back, I will definitely return home in fine clothes. If I don't go back, I will be buried in the wilderness."

He looked at the entourage beside him and said calmly: "You must never tell Madam this, do you understand?"

The attendant agreed and said, "I understand, little man."

Zhao Si hummed: "You go ahead."

The attendant responded and walked out of the inn. He took a horse and galloped away.

After the entourage left, Zhao Si stared at the candlelight in a daze.

He was a little relieved that he had endured it and did not worry his wife.

But he was a little regretful. It was a pity that he died and his wife didn't know that there was no one to mourn before his death, and that his body would even be exposed in the wilderness.

The candlelight in front of Zhao Si's eyes swayed back and forth, as if it was his own life, and he didn't know when it would be extinguished.

In fact, the post house was equipped with electric lights, but Zhao Si was not used to using them. When he saw the lights on, he always wanted to blow them with his mouth.

In addition, it was said that electricity charges were required to use electric lights. Zhao Si inquired about the amount of the electricity bill and decided not to use it.

When Zhao Si was deep in thought, the soldiers from the inn came in.

He was quite polite to Zhao Si, because he heard that Mr. Zhao came all the way to speak for the banished immortal.

I admire such people.

He cupped his hands at Zhao Si and said, "Master Zhao, there is an adult looking for you."

Zhao Si asked: "Who is it?"

The soldier said: "He seems to be an important minister in the court."
