"Sir, something is wrong. They don't seem to be the army of the Western Regions." A second lieutenant officer observed.

"What? Not from the Western Regions, are there other people?" Major Bai cursed loudly.

"Sir, it's definitely not from the Western Regions. There won't be so many cavalry in the Western Regions, and they won't be so neat. The troops from the Western Regions won't be so well-trained," said the second lieutenant.

"Let me see." Major Bai followed.

"Yes." Major Bai nodded.

"Could it be the unknown army from the small mountain castle?" Major Bai said.

"Sir, it seems that they have bypassed the hill fort." The second lieutenant said.

"No matter what, block them, absolutely don't let them pass by casually." Major Bai ordered.

"Yes, sir." The second lieutenant agreed.At this time, the Qin army has entered a fighting state.The defense of the small stone fortress was over 500 men.The defense system is very perfect.And that army just stayed far away from the small stone fortress, and they fought against the Qin army.Knowing that the other party is very difficult to deal with, they avoid it far away.Just watching from a distance.Does not take the initiative to attack.

The two sides faced each other coldly.

"Gentlemen?" Shangwen said standing in the hall.This is a routine court meeting.Although Shangwen doesn't have to come to court every day.Because a large number of economic affairs need to be handled in writing, considering the special situation.The king of Qin agreed.But before the end of the month, the state of Qin will hold a court meeting in order to focus on solving outstanding problems, but there are not too many outstanding problems.Each time, Naofumi felt like he was making some statement in Congress.

"I know, you think that Qin State should not help Zhao State, but we must help Zhao State." Shang Wen said to everyone.

"It's not my personal reasons, it's the real situation. It is necessary to do so, and unification can not necessarily be achieved by using force. The economy, especially money, and huge funds are also effective weapons. This kind of weapon is invisible and can kill the enemy. At the same time , can also kill the enemy's heart, which is much easier to use than those powerful weapons." Shang Wen said.

After hearing Shang Wen's remarks, all the ministers sighed.He expressed his incomprehension of Shang Wen's point.

"Quiet. Prime Minister, continue." King Qin said calmly.Listen patiently to Shangwen's explanation.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shang Wen saluted.

1715 Court Discourse

"Qin currently has a large amount of funds concentrated in the hands of the 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. [Latest chapter reading..] These funds are the flood of Qin. Yes The losses caused by Qin will be uncountable." Shang Wen said seriously.

"Money is a flood. I think this flood can do more for Qin." Yao Jia said unceremoniously to Shang Wen.

"Yes, money is a flood." Shang Wen said.

"If you compare funds to water, if a lot of water is gathered here, it cannot flow. And your terrain is very high. And you build a dam to intercept it. What is the result? You don't need me to remind you." Shang Wen Speaking to everyone.Meng Yi, who was listening to Shangwen's conversation, couldn't help but nodded.

Qin Wang also nodded at this time to agree with Shang Wen's opinion.Qin Wang has accepted the concept of capital.he knows.The Qin State at this time is different from the Qin State at any time.The Qin State did not rely on food to conquer the world.but capital.With sufficient capital, Qin can do many things.But this capital can have the same characteristics as water.King Qin knew this very well.

Seeing King Qin nodded.Yao Jia understood that King Qin agreed with Shang Wen's opinion.That being the case, it was hard for Yao Jia to say anything.Because King Qin didn't say anything.It's not good for me to continue charging.

"This water needs to flow. Everyone knows that. This water turns into water vapor and rises into the air. Then under certain conditions, rainwater is formed, and the rainwater falls in the mountains, becomes groundwater, or glacier water, and then melts. Or it seeps out to form springs, streams, rivers, and rivers, and finally enters the sea again, and the sea forms water vapor and circulates again. This is the characteristic of water. Now my Qin State has a lot of money hoarded in its hands. These Funds are like the pooled water from the sea, if the Qin State does not disperse, think about the consequences?" Shang Wen asked.

"En. I agree with the Prime Minister's opinion." Wei Liao said at this time.

"I also agree." Wang Jian stood up when he saw Wei Liao.Without saying anything, he stood up and spoke.

"Second minister." Several ministers behind also stood up and said at this time.

"En. This is the best." King Qin said.

"The widow also thinks that the money is gathered in the hands of the state of Qin. It is not a good thing, and none of you have as strong a view on economic affairs as the prime minister. In this regard, the widow is the same as you. They are all students. Study hard. ’” King Qin said.

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

"Tell me about the Qin Federation Conference." King Qin said.

"Since you have decided to convene this federal meeting, why are you still discussing this federal system and confederation?" King Qin asked.King Qin attached great importance to Shang Wen's opinion.In terms of how Qin State can strengthen and digest the current policy.The King of Qin really wanted to find out what Shang Wen was thinking.King Qin also knew that Shang Wen's move was to strengthen the digestion and control of the occupied area.In addition, the Qin State Federation Conference will be held recently, and these are the contents of the discussion.King Qin naturally valued it.

"Your Majesty. The federal system is equivalent to the prefecture system of the Qin State. It is much more relaxed than the county system. Local autonomy is greater. The confederal system is equivalent to the states divided by the emperor of Zhou. A set of independent existence." Shang Wen said.

"The federal system actually combines the advantages of the two systems." Shang Wen then said to everyone.

"Oh." King Qin nodded.Everyone patiently listened to Shangwen's explanation.In their view, Shangwen's move is another institutional innovation, which has never been seen before.Because they have never heard of it before. Although there have been a lot of rumors recently, in fact, others don't know at all, and they don't know what Shang Wen is thinking.And before today's court discussion.Many people have reported many bad things about Shang Wen to King Qin.The king of Qin trusted Shangwen before dealing with the new land.No one is more qualified than Shangwen.

"The system of prefectures and counties. In fact, the central government of the Qin State has absolute control over the localities, and the orders issued by the central government can be well implemented by the localities. However, the Qin State has a vast territory, and there are special local conditions." Shang Wen said arrive.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's move..." Just as Shang Wen was discussing.A minister has already spoken out against Naofumi.The system of prefectures and counties is a national policy that has been implemented by the Qin State before.However, Shangwen's public discussion of the prefecture and county system in the court hall is actually a denial of the past.

"Go on." Qin Wang impatiently signaled the minister not to interrupt Shang Wen, and at the same time, Qin Wang continued to let Shang Wen continue.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shang Wen saluted.Regarding Shangwen's move.The king of Qin has long been accustomed to the strangeness.Because many new things were born in Qin, and new things are born every day.King Qin has accepted new things and innovated, and he has penetrated into King Qin's inner world.So for such arguments.King Qin didn't care at all, what he cared about was the pros and cons of Shang Wen's innovation in the system.

"Although the county system is good. However, the local government should follow the instructions of the central government, and the particularity of the local area has not been taken into account. Under such circumstances, there will inevitably be some differences between the localities. This will lose the county system. Some flexibility. The central government cannot predict more things in the local area, so naturally it is impossible to know what special circumstances will be encountered when the local debt policy is implemented.” Shang Wen said.

"Besides, the Qin State has a vast territory and different products. This leads to the special 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 to the east 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. "Shang Wen said.

Some of the crowd nodded.Obviously, they have agreed with Shang Wen's view.

"The confederal system is actually a replica of Zhou Tianzi enfeoffing the vassal states." Shang Wen said.

"This system fully takes into account the existence of local particularities. However, the respect for local rights leads to their weak overall strength. At the same time, because they place too much emphasis on local rights, if a place develops and expands its economy, It will expand rapidly. For example, industry and commerce develop faster than agriculture. If food prices are suppressed excessively, then those agricultural places will become vassals of industry and commerce. In addition, the economies of various countries are independent, and some political and diplomatic rights are independent. Finally, What will happen? Everyone must be very clear." Shang Wen waved his arms at this time and said.

Hear here.Everyone nodded.I want what Shangwen said to be very reasonable.Excessive implementation of the county system will lead to a reduction in local freedom.The implementation of the confederacy system will form a situation like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.And Qin State has to waste more material, human and financial resources on the issue of territorial unification.This is what Qin is unwilling to accept.

Qin Wang couldn't help nodding his head when he heard Shang Wen's words.Apparently, Shang Wen's words touched King Qin's heart.

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

"Yes." Shangwen nodded in acknowledgment.

"The federal system retains local governance of the economy, part of the judicial power, and fully withdraws diplomatic rights. The militia is still owned by the parliament, but the king is the supreme commander. All militias must obey orders. In addition, local states can recruit troops. In this way Qin State can expand and recruit soldiers, which is good for Qin State." Shang Wen said.

"It's not just these." Shangwen said.

"In these local states, the population development is relatively small, and they have a certain degree of initiative. The development will be much faster, and the central and local power jurisdictions are balanced. In this way, the economic development speed is naturally much faster. A large scope is given. Local governments can control it according to the large scope and regulation. This is a kind of balance. The balance of rapid economic development.” Shang Wen said.

"This kind of balance is the only way to ensure the economic development of Qin State." Shang Wen said.

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

"Yes." Shangwen nodded in acknowledgment.

"But why is the prime minister still talking about federalism and confederation?" Yao Jia asked.

"En." Shangwen nodded calmly.It seems that he doesn't care about Yao Jia's question at all.

"Hehe." Hearing such a question.Meng Yi beside Shangwen couldn't help laughing.

"Why is the Deputy Prime Minister laughing?" Yao Jia asked Meng Yi.

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

"This." Yao Jia looked at Shang Wen for no reason at this time, and then at Meng Yi.
