In the next year, the land that the people reclaimed belongs to their own.
The people are not stupid, so they must have taken advantage of this year to crazily reclaim land.
This can indeed greatly mobilize the people's enthusiasm for reclaiming wasteland, but how could they do their best to plant the country's land?
The country needs food, and war needs food.
Even if Zhao Ling finds excellent crops overseas, the country cannot collect food and the army has no food, and it will inevitably start a rebellion.
Zhao Ling stared at Wang Wan and sneered: "What's wrong?"
"There are so many prisoners and refugees in the world. They can farm and only give them two meals a day."
"When the people are clearing the land, they plant the country's land, and the state gives them food and money, and exempts farmers from taxes, so they will naturally plant."
Wang Wan seemed to hear something immortal, her voice trembled sharply, and she had forgotten Zhao Ling's method: "The country's land is for farming, giving them food, and waived their taxes? Your Majesty, you know you What are you talking about?”
Wang Wan even thought Zhao Ling was crazy.
Who said he was decisive in killing?
He is too kind!
Zhao Ling's tone was endless indifference: "Of course I know what I am talking about, you only need to be responsible for conveying my will to all officials."
"Why didn't Your Majesty mention it in the palace just now?" Wang Wan's face was extremely difficult to see. "Your Majesty's decisions are issued, and all the ministers will definitely object! I dare not convey Your Majesty's will, so why don't Your Majesty ask Prime Minister Zhang Liang to convey it?"
Zhao Ling sneered: "I originally asked you to come to discuss with you how to manage businessmen. You insist on farming and speak of benevolence and righteousness. But the people of the Qin Dynasty have become untouchables in your mouth."
"I ask you, why can't they afford to eat the wastelands that the people have cultivated and the food they have planted? Why do they have to pay so much tax?"
"I will be responsible for the military expenditure of the Qin Dynasty. Can't the farmers keep the three melons and two dates for themselves to support themselves?"
Wang Wan's face turned red. He was shocked by Zhao Ling's remarks just now. In desperation, he actually said what he was in his heart.
Untouchables!
Yes, it's the untouchables!
What kind of people, in the eyes of their noble families, even if they were hungry for thousands of miles, they would at most talk and act like compassion for the emperor to open the warehouse and release the grain.
If the emperor does not act, they can still stand on the commanding heights of morality and scold the emperor for being cruel.
Anyway, they can keep their reputations for the emperor forever and they don’t really need to pay anything.
People cannot die too much.
That's because they are worried that no one will cultivate the land and no one will support them when the people die.
Therefore, the people must live.
It's just living.
If you die, then die.
If they died too much, they would shake out some old corn from their fingers, which was already a great kindness.
Those untouchables should be grateful to their nobles, praise their kindness and spread their reputation.
"Your Majesty... I heard that Meng Tian and Meng Yi are going to Shangjun to fight against the Hu people again." Wang Wan asked gritted teeth, "The government orders issued by Your Majesty recently consumed food and wasted money, and the national treasury was empty. How could Your Majesty solve the problem? The military expenditure of a hundred thousand troops?”
"Why do you need a 300,000 army to fight against the Hu people? Ten thousand army is enough to sweep the grassland." Zhao Ling waved his sleeves, "Prime Minister Wang doesn't have to bother with military expenses."
"Just just convey my will. If you have any objections, let them come to me."
Zhao Ling asked Wang Wan to go to Zhangtai Palace. He originally wanted to make a law about merchants with Wang Wan, but Wang Wan insisted on telling him about farming. He wanted to postpone the matter for a while, for fear that the ministers would not be able to adapt to this. Many changes.
Zhao Ling simply announced it together.
The general trend lies with him, and Zhao Ling is not worried about the nobles' rebellion.
His knife was sharpened.
The army from Sanchuan County to Xianyang, and captured the throne without any blood.
If someone dares to rebel, it will just show his strength.
Zhao Ling dared to say that with the people's expectations he has gained quickly now, his government orders were issued, and everyone was celebrated. The nobles dared to rebel against Zhao Ling, and the farmers at the bottom did not agree.
Wang Wan has indeed heard that Zhao Ling has to solve the Hu trouble within half a month. Now, 15,000 troops swept the grasslands...
This is more than just a hurry to make quick success and instant benefits?
"Okay, okay!" Wang Wan was furious and almost lost the calmness of a politician. "I have no objection to the businessman's affairs. It is better to wait until His Majesty's iron cavalry swept across the grassland before talking about it."
Zhao Ling changed his previous gentleness and said coldly: "I ordered you to pass an edict, not to discuss it with you."
Wang Wan: “…”
He looked at Zhao Ling in disbelief.
What is this attitude?
Didn’t Zhao Ling use him to balance the three major clans?
There is still something behind Wang WanA noble power that cannot be ignored. He has worked hard in the court for many years and established a lot of prestige. Could Zhao Ling want to let his power go without it?
"Prime Minister Wang, I respect you as an old minister. I hope you can play with Xi Wenyan and the others, and don't want to cause too much turmoil in the court."
"That's all!"
Zhao Ling had a playful smile on his face: "Prime Minister Wang, don't forget, I am the king, you are the minister! Prime Minister Wang won't really think that I have to check and balance the three major clans, right?"
"If you hadn't made a lot of contributions to the unification of the Qin Dynasty, I would like to think that you have worked hard and made great contributions and would give your father a face. I don't want to hurt you old ministers, otherwise..."
A chill flashed through Zhao Ling's eyes: "You can do whatever I want you to do, maybe you can leave your name in history, otherwise you will be as old as Prime Minister Feng."
Feng Quji's prestige in the court is not lower than that in Wang Wan. He resigned in the court, but Zhao Ling didn't even think about it and agreed directly.
Zhao Ling has his own team. If these old ministers dare to turn against each other, he will dare to overturn the table.
What aristocratic clan is so amazing?
Zhao Ling left Sanchuan County and took all the enemies he might have to face.
Wang Wan felt real fear in the face of Zhao Ling.
If it were Ying Zheng, even if he was furious, he would at most lock up Wang Wan and would not even dismissal from office.
Just a advice, Ying Zheng would not be angry at all even if he disagreed with his political views.
But Zhao Ling is indeed completely different here.
Wang Wan remembered the fate of Zhao Gao and Li Si at this time...
Wang Wan looked at Zhao Ling. He could not see anger on Zhao Ling's face, but cold chill and contempt.
Zhao Ling did not joke with him or talk big.
Wang Wan swallowed hard, feeling mixed emotions.
It turned out that Zhao Ling didn't need him at all, and Da Qin didn't need him either.
"I... obey the order!" Wang Wan smiled bitterly, thinking about the tribe members behind her, she could only choose to compromise.
The reason why he can survive is not because of how capable he is, nor because of how much power he has behind him, or his reputation.
It’s simply because Zhao Ling doesn’t want to kill the old minister.
He is more like a mascot.
Zhao Ling turned around and said in a low voice: "Get back."
Wang Wan sighed deeply again and left Zhangtai Palace. Her originally straight backbone seemed to be bent a little, and she seemed to have suddenly become more than teenager.
