"This." Meng Yi shrugged, he didn't expect Shang Wen to answer like this.

"Yes, I can't solve it. I need to think about it. Our Minister of Defense just threw me a problem. I couldn't solve it. Now, our Deputy Prime Minister gave me another one. I can't solve it. "Shang Wen said.

"So, now, what I think is, why don't we get together, talk about the problem, and think of a way to solve it." Shangwen said.

"What do you mean?" Meng Yi asked.

"After the year, we are going to Handan, we can discuss where to go." Shang Wen said.

"There, we can solve more problems," Shang Wen said.

"There seem to be too many problems recently." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"It's better for us to sort it out. It's easy to solve the problems. We need many ways to solve these problems." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"Come out?" Meng Yi asked.

"Yes. Let's sort it out. We should sum up the problems and see if there is any connection between them. If these problems can be solved well, we are naturally willing, but if we can't solve them, we can also see clearly What is the essence of the problem. Are you right?" Shang Wen said.

"In this case, is it necessary to hold a court meeting?" Wei Liao asked.

"I think, maybe." Shang Wen said to Wei Liao.

"However, before we do this, we should sum up our own affairs. Summarize the problems, just a summary of the year ago. Looking forward to the work of next year." Shang Wen said optimistically. m

"The current primary goal of Qin is still to open up the market. Only by expanding greater demand can Qin's industrial and commercial enterprises survive. A series of political, military, diplomatic and other means around this goal must be based on such a goal. .” Shang Wen introduced.

Wei Liao nodded aside, for such a core goal as Shang Wen.Wei Liao agrees.What is the current interest of the Qin State is the interests of industrial and commercial enterprises.Industrial and commercial enterprises can bring a lot of taxes to Qin, and at the same time, they can develop and provide various resources that can be used.The reason for Qin's prosperity may lie in them, but at present, the demand is weak.Qin's goods cannot be sold.Can't consume.The profitability of industrial and commercial enterprises will decline, and the government's financial situation will deteriorate.Today it affects all aspects of Qin.The most obvious place is the military, where military spending has been cut again and again.This annoyed the military very much.

"Around this goal, we need to make a series of political adjustments," Shang Wen said.

"The first thing to do is, democracy, we must have our own slogan. Democracy is mainly to make those people who are still in slavery become ordinary people and become civilians with rights. And for those stubborn nobles, adopt a series of It doesn’t matter whether it’s military strikes, economic sanctions, or other means. Anyway, what we have to do is to divide and disintegrate the existing political systems and political forces of various countries. For example, the Wei State issue, the Wei State Located in an important strategic position in the east-west, north-south direction, the problem of Wei State is not solved well, which has a lot to do with our future construction of railways and expansion of market demand. My thoughts are like this." Shangwen stood up and walked back and forth.The circulation of blood in the legs is of great help to thinking. Many times, Shangwen thinks about problems under such circumstances and comes up with good ideas.

"My idea is this. First of all, we have a great influence on Zhao Guo and South Korea politically. The use of the parliamentary system is a kind of democratic influence. While the status of businessmen in the two countries is further improved, it is a kind of influence on us. The impact of democracy. In this way, there will be a brand-new force between the two countries, and the existence of such a new force will be one of the effective methods for Qin to merge through federalism in the future." Shang Wen said to everyone.

Wei Liao smiled slightly at this time.Because of the implementation of the federal system, Wei Liao agreed, but Wei Liao was the first to see the strength of Shang Wen's move.The federal system, as well as a series of continuous and effective economic cooperation, can completely dissolve the vague concept of the country among Zhao people, coupled with the implementation of the federal system.Zhao Guo may become a state of Qin State and join in. This is a great thing for Qin State. Although the use of force can quickly pancake Zhao State, there are still a series of sequelae. Zhao State’s national consciousness still exists. Maybe it will take a war to eliminate this consciousness, or it may take a long time, there are too many accidents in the middle.King Qin didn't want to see surprises.Although Shangwen's method takes a little longer, it can eliminate this national consciousness, because the federation still retains this relative independence, but on the whole, in terms of the overall cohesion of the country, Qin is still the last to unify.Therefore, Wei Liao was in favor of federalism.Strong support for federalism.

"Zhao State, South Korea, and our Qin State can form alliances, political alliances, military alliances, economic alliances, and through step-by-step alliances, we can achieve our goals." Shang Wen said.

"In addition, for other countries, such as Yan, Qi, and Chu, we can take the method of transformation to spread. They must implement the parliamentary system and get in touch with all slave relations. Reduce tariffs, various domestic taxes, so that We can cooperate further. We can provide loans, invest in the construction of some industrial and commercial enterprises, or jointly establish banks, etc. However, the implementation of the previous system is the prerequisite for our cooperation. Without this condition, Qin will unite Other allies adopted other methods to attack and encircle and suppress, forcing them to adopt such a system.” Shang Wen said.

"If you do this, it will be very systematic." Meng Yi commented.

"In the military field." Shang Wen continued.

"Military reforms will continue. However, the first thing we need to solve is the problem of changing the defense of the Qin Army. At present, the mobile force of the Qin Army is seriously insufficient. If there is any accident, Qin's defense line may collapse. Therefore, We need to make some changes. In my opinion, we can adopt a strategic defensive posture and tactics, and an active offensive strategy in part of the campaign." Shangwen thought for a while and said.In terms of military affairs, Shangwen doesn't know much, but he can learn a lot.

"We can't gather all the troops and put them on one front. It would be a waste of manpower for us. We don't have so many troops to carry on," Shang Wen said.

"So, the prime minister wants to prove it?" Fan Zeng, who was the Secretary of State, asked.

"My approach is to focus on defense and mobile defense, as well as active employment and the use of commercial armed forces to actively launch offensives. At the same time, we must also adopt a series of diplomatic means to divide and defuse these ethnic minority threats." Shang Wen said.

"Trade can be used. We don't have to use military means. Sometimes, trade is a cheap and fast way." Shang Wen said.

"The prime minister means to use external means to understand the opponent, not to use force lightly, and at the same time use fierce military means against some disobedient tribes." Fan Zeng said.

"Yes. To sum it up, the general idea is, big stick and trade. Or we can also call it, big stick and Qin Banliang policy." Shang Wen said to Fan Zeng.

"Good idea." Fan Zeng said.Shangwen borrowed President Theodore Roosevelt's big stick dollar policy. Such a policy has a very good effect on foreign expansion and market expansion.Use a single military means.the cost is too high.Especially for barren areas.The cost of using military means is too high.The Ministry of Finance is definitely not willing to spend such a sum of money, and the other party's national character is tenacious. If they cannot be completely eradicated, they will repeatedly fight against you. In that case, Qin will have to resort to military means to suppress it. , and the cost of Qin's use of military means will be very high.It is a profit-making behavior for ethnic minorities to launch wars. In addition, they are cavalry. The long-term protracted war pattern is a disaster for Qin. Qin is likely to be gradually dragged down, or crush Qin's finances and economy the last straw.Throughout history.Such things abound. Emperor Wu of the Han's attack on the Huns, the Qiang people on the border of the Hexi Corridor, and the Ming Dynasty's foreign wars, if they cannot be resolved for a long time, will eventually have an immeasurable impact on the country's finances. It is not an agricultural society, but the economy is still the essence.This kind of resource consumption is the most unacceptable for finances. Excessive consumption of finances is likely to cause a greater crisis. Various famous dynasties in history have made amazing achievements in external expansion, but once the war falls into Stagnation, or improper handling of operations, will cause serious consequences, and the national economy will become extremely fragile under such excessive consumption.

Shang Wen also faced such a situation.Qin State seems to be very powerful, but in fact he also has his vulnerability. This vulnerability is the economy. If Qin State's finances are blindly consumed, this vulnerability will be exposed. Once it is not resolved for a long time, Qin State will be in trouble. Escape the ending of history.In Shang Wen’s view, the demise of the Qin State was due to his excessive consumption, which brought fatal consequences. The financial crisis triggered the national economic crisis, which then led to political disasters, which eventually escalated into national war disasters.Shangwen does not want to see such a result happen, therefore, he needs to manage the country with heart, try to use the method with lower cost, and reduce the dependence on finance.Try not to let Qin fall into an economic crisis, but also think of ways to complete the system reform of Qin, and try to use a reliable, stable, and flexible system to reform Qin's problems in different periods.This is very important to Qin.

"The way to reduce costs is to use merchant arms. We need to give merchants a certain degree of freedom in arming. This is very beneficial to the country. The domestic affairs are to develop the market. Then expand domestic demand, encourage investment, free competition, etc. "Shang Wen said.Qin State's current problems are not in internal affairs, so Shang Wen does not emphasize much on internal affairs, but Qin State needs to make some positive efforts in terms of actively exploring the market.

"I think it's very good to do this." Meng Yi said.

"If merchants use it, they will stimulate greater domestic demand. Think about it. Huge military equipment needs, material needs, transportation needs, and capital needs, these can be done without spending government revenue It is already very rare." Meng Yi said.Meng Yi knew very well how much impact this would have.The current financial pressure of all countries is very high. Under such circumstances, Qin can only do this.

"Yes. Very correct. This is everything we want to see. What we need is to complete these as soon as possible. Do the current thing well." Shang Wen said.

"Things, I think that's all. If you have anything to add, if you don't have any, we will make a record and present it to the king. Then next year we will start to follow the above." Shang Wen said .

"I think there is one more important thing." At this moment, Fan Zeng stood up and said. m

1780 The mighty Federalist Party

"That's right." Shang Wen said.

"But this is a matter of political parties. It's not the time yet. There are many political parties in Qin State, but they don't know what to do yet." Shang Wen said.

"Now they still need some time. This matter is not the main direction of our governance, but we fully participate in it."Shang Wen said.

At present, the largest political party in Qin State is the Federal Party founded by Ying Yu.The rest were small parties who could not pose an absolute threat to the Federalist Party, so some parties sought to unite.

Meng Yi recorded the meeting.After recording the meeting, Meng Yi submitted the meeting minutes to King Qin.

"It's well sorted out. Da Bang and Qin Banliang." King Qin said while looking at the record with a smile.For the full text of the minutes of the meeting, King Qin read the "big stick and Qin Banliang" policy.As it stands.Such a policy may be the most suitable for Qin.

Finances cannot support large-scale wars, and the cost of using wars is too high.Rationally speaking, Shangwen's method is suitable for the current state of Qin.

"Prime Minister, there is a letter." The assistant said on the phone.

"Letter?" Shang Wen asked.

"Yes. Said it was sent by a friend of yours," the assistant said.

"We are worried that the prime minister has some important friends, so we want to ask you." The assistant continued.After worrying about Shang Wen's affairs.He decided to report this situation to Shangwen.

"Let me see." Shang Wen said.

Letters are very different.It will be because most of Qin's letters are written on paper, but the letters are written on wooden boards.After Shangwen read it.The signature turned out to be Li.What Shang Wen thought of was Mo Li.

"Could it be the Mohist?" Shangwen looked at the signature in doubt.Anyway.Shangwen decided to meet up. The place where the other party met was not far from the prime minister's mansion, beside the Wei River, where there were relatively few people.Generally a good place for a walk.Shang Wen believes that there is not much danger.He decided to check it out.

"Is the prime minister going out?" the assistant asked when he saw Shang Wen get up to get his clothes.

"Yes. Without guards, I want to go out and have a look. It's a private matter. Don't worry." Shang Wen said.

"Yes. Prime Minister." The assistant nodded.Then Shangwen left and came to the edge of the Wei River.

However, there were not many people on the side of the Weihe River, and Shangwen looked at a few people and didn't think they were from the Mohist family. Shangwen could only walk back and forth.wait and see.

"Long time no see. Mr. Qin." Just when Shangwen was waiting anxiously.Shangwen heard the voice of an old man.

Shang Wen looked back and saw that it was Mo Lao.Judgment and Molly.
