"The State of Qin currently has a large amount of funds concentrated in the hands of banks. If the money in the hands of these banks cannot be dispersed, it will lead to a backlog in the hands of the banks. This money is a flood for the State of Qin. The losses caused to the State of Qin will be difficult to

Count." Naofumi said seriously.

"Money is a flood. I think the more of this flood, the better for our country of Qin." Yao Jia said rudely to Shang Wen.

"Yes, money is a flood." Naofumi said.

"If you compare funds to water, if a large amount of water gathers here and cannot flow, and the terrain here is very high, and you build a dam to intercept it, what will be the result? You don't need me to remind you." Naofumi.

Speaking to everyone, Meng Yi couldn't help but nodded while listening to Shang Wen's conversation.

At this time, King Qin also nodded and agreed with Shang Wen's view. King Qin had accepted the concept of capital. He knew that the Qin State at this time was different from the Qin State in any period. The Qin State did not rely on food to conquer the world.

It is capital. With sufficient capital, Qin can do many things. But this capital can have the same characteristics as water. The King of Qin knew this very well.

Seeing King Qin keep nodding, Yao Jia understood that King Qin agreed with Shang Wen's view. In this case, Yao Jia couldn't say anything. Because King Qin didn't say anything, he couldn't continue to charge.

"This water needs to flow. As we all know, this water turns into water vapor and rises into the air. Then under certain conditions, it forms rainwater, and the rainwater falls in the mountains, turns into groundwater, or glacier water, and then melts

Or it seeps out to form springs, streams, rivers, rivers, and finally forms

It enters the sea again, and the sea forms water vapor, which circulates again. This is the characteristic of water. Now our Qin State has a large amount of funds hoarded in its hands. These funds are like the water that has been transformed from the sea. If the Qin State

If you don't disperse, think about the consequences?" Naofumi asked.

"Well, I agree with the Prime Minister's view." Wei Liao said at this time.

"I also agree." Wang Jian saw that Wei Liao had stood up. He didn't say anything, so he stood up and said.

"I second the proposal." Several ministers from behind also stood up and said at this time.

"Well, this is the best." King Qin said.

"I also think that it is not a good thing for this money to be gathered in the hands of Qin State. Moreover, you are not as strong as the prime minister in economic matters. I am just like you. We are all students. Let's study hard.

." King Qin said.

"Don't talk about this matter anymore. Write a report later. You all go and study it." King Qin continued.

"Let's talk about the Qin Federation Conference." King Qin said.

"Since you have decided to convene this federal meeting, why do you still need to discuss this federal system and confederacy?" King Qin asked. King Qin valued Shang Wen's opinion very much. King Qin was very interested in how Qin State can strengthen and digest the current policy.

Find out what Shangwen thinks. The King of Qin also knows that Shangwen's move is to strengthen the digestion and control of the occupied areas. In addition, the Qin Federation meeting will be held recently, and the content of the discussion is these. The King of Qin naturally attaches great importance to it.

"Your Majesty, the federal system is equivalent to the county system of the Qin State. It is much looser than the county system. Local governments have greater autonomy. The confederal system is equivalent to the countries that were enfeoffed by the Emperor of Zhou. There are still differences between the countries.

A set that exists independently." Naofumi said.

"The federal system actually combines the advantages of the two systems." Naofumi then told everyone.

"Oh." King Qin nodded. Everyone listened patiently to Shangwen's explanation. In their opinion, Shangwen's move was another institutional innovation, which was unprecedented. Because they had never heard of it before.

Although there has been a lot of talk recently, in fact,

Others don't know at all, and they don't know what Shangwen is thinking. Before today's court discussion, many people had reported to King Qin and said a lot of bad things about Shangwen. King Qin trusted Shangwen, and before dealing with the new land, no one

There is no one more qualified than Naofumi.

"The system of prefectures and counties. In fact, the central government of the Qin State has absolute control over the local areas, and the local governments can implement the orders issued by the central government very well. However, the Qin State has a vast territory, and local areas have special circumstances." Shang Wen said.

arrive.

"Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister did..." Just as Shang Wen was discussing, a minister had already stood up to oppose Shang Wen. The system of prefectures and counties was a national policy that had been implemented before the Qin State. And Shang Wen was

Publicly discussing the county system in court is actually a denial of the past.

"Go on." King Qin impatiently motioned to the minister not to interrupt Shangwen, while King Qin continued to let Shangwen continue speaking.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shangwen said with a salute. King Qin had long been accustomed to Shangwen's move. Because many new things were born in Qin, and new things were born every day. King Qin had already accepted new things and innovated.

, has penetrated deeply into King Qin's inner world. Therefore, King Qin doesn't care at all about such discussions. What he cares about is the pros and cons of Shangwen's institutional innovation.

"Although the county system is good, the localities should follow the instructions of the central government, and the particularity of the localities is not taken into account. Under such circumstances, there will inevitably be some differences among the localities. This will be lost for the county system.

Some flexibility. The central government cannot estimate more things at the local level, so naturally it cannot know what kind of special circumstances local debt will encounter when implementing policies." Naofumi said.

"Moreover, Qin State has a vast territory and different products. This leads to the specialized development of regional economy. Guanzhong can develop industry. In the north, some places can develop industry, and some places can develop animal husbandry and farm economy.

.Further east, there is the development of forestry, the economy is different, and the division of labor in society is different. Although the county system is good, it should be taken into account," Naofumi said.

Some of the people nodded. Obviously, they had agreed with Naofumi's view.

"The confederation system is actually a replica of the emperor Zhou's enfeoffment of vassal states." Shangwen said.

"This system fully takes into account the existence of local particularities. The respect for local rights results in their overall weak strength. At the same time, they also attach too much importance to local rights. If a place develops and expands economically,

will expand rapidly. For example, industry and commerce will expand more rapidly than

Agricultural development must be rapid. If food prices are suppressed too much, then those agricultural areas will become vassals of industry and commerce. Coupled with the economic independence of each country and the independence of some political and diplomatic rights, what will happen in the end? Everyone must be clear."

Naofumi waved his arms and said.

Hearing this, everyone nodded, hoping that what Shang Wen said was very reasonable. Excessive implementation of the county system will lead to a reduction in local freedom. And implementation of the confederal system will lead to a situation like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. And the Qin State

It is necessary to waste more material, human and financial resources on the issue of territorial unification. This is something Qin is unwilling to accept.

King Qin couldn't help but nodded when he heard Shangwen's words. Apparently Shangwen's words had reached King Qin's heart.

"So, the Prime Minister wants to implement the federal system?" Yao Jia stood up and asked at this time.

"Yes." Naofumi nodded and admitted.

"The federal system retains local governance of the economy, some judicial powers, and takes back all diplomatic rights. The militia is still owned by the Parliament, but the king is the supreme commander. All militia must obey orders. In addition, local states can recruit troops. In this way

Qin can expand and recruit soldiers, which is good for Qin." Shang Wen said.

"It's not just that." Naofumi said.

"These local states have less population development, and they have certain initiative. They will develop much faster, and the central power jurisdiction and local power jurisdiction are both balanced. In this way, the economic development speed will naturally be much faster, and the central government will only

A large scope is given, and local governments can adjust and control according to the large scope. This is a balance, a balance of rapid economic development." Shangwen said.

"This balance is the only way to ensure Qin's economic development." Shangwen said.

"Well, then the local and central governments will be balanced?" Yao Jia asked.

"Yes." Naofumi nodded and admitted.

"But why does the Prime Minister still discuss federalism and confederacy?" Yao Jia asked.

"Yes." Shangwen nodded calmly, as if he didn't care at all about Yao Jia's question.

"Haha." Meng Yi, who was next to Shang Wen, couldn't help laughing when he heard such a question.

"Why is the deputy prime minister laughing?" Yao Jia asked Meng Yi.

"This. Didn't Mr. Yao notice it?" Meng Yi asked.

"This." Yao Jia looked at Shangwen with confusion at this time, and then looked at Meng Yi.

"Okay. These things are all planned by the Prime Minister. Naturally, some means must be used. There is no need to pursue some details." King Qin reminded Yao Jia kindly at this time.

At the beginning, Naofumi did not use such a trick. But during the actual discussion, a comparison was needed. Naofumi thought of confederacy. In fact, this is a method of weighing the pros and cons. It can make people find one more intuitively.

Reference came. But Yao Jia didn't understand it all of a sudden. King Qin who listened patiently on the side helped Yao Jia solve the problem.

"Actually, I am also optimistic about this federal system. Although it is different from the county system implemented by Qin State, it should still be of great help to Qin State. The central government can gather a lot of local power to help with bigger things. The Prime Minister actually

You are doing this too, right?" King Qin asked Shangwen at this time.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Naofumi nodded.

"Actually, there are more things that Qin needs to consider." Shangwen continued.
