Chapter 93 The King’s Real Intention
Prime Minister Wang Wan put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, “How does the King want to spread these things to the world?”
The King took out these things to show them to them today. , I definitely didn’t want to just make a notice or decree to publicize the production method, I probably had other ideas.
Ying Zhengdao: "It's better that the Prime Minister knows me!"
"I will be called the emperor. This is a grand event for me, a grand event for the Qin Dynasty, a grand event for all the ministers, and a grand event for the world. ”
"Since it is a grand event, how can we not have fun with all the ministers and the world?"
Hearing these words, many ministers thought they understood: Your Majesty wanted to spread these things when he proclaimed himself emperor. Spread it throughout the world, to celebrate him becoming the first emperor in the ages, and let the whole world celebrate together.
In this way, all the people will remember when the king became emperor, and will be grateful to the king, allowing the king to gain great popularity among the people.
Although the maker of these things was Li Nian, the king of Xianyang did not forget them when he proclaimed himself emperor, and deliberately spread them out for them to use.
But the ministers still thought less.
Just listen to Ying Zheng say again: "Since it is for the same joy, it can only be said that it is the same day and at the same time. These things are sent to all parts of the world first, but they are hidden and not announced. It is agreed that on the day when I am called the emperor, I will announce it to the world at the same time. What do you think?”
After hearing this, the ministers thought about it carefully and realized that this operation is feasible. This is a way for the whole world to celebrate with all the people, which is better than announcing it to the world when the king is proclaimed emperor.
Let all the people in the world really feel the benefits of the king calling himself emperor, and then the king's reputation will definitely be even higher.
At this time, they finally understood why the king was not in a hurry to proclaim himself emperor, but set the time within two months. This was because he planned to complete his plan within these two months.
Wang Wan said: "Your Majesty is wise and this method is wonderful. Only in this way can the whole world celebrate together and congratulate your Majesty!"
The history books will definitely record this incident, and it will definitely be followed by future emperors.
In fact, of course it is best for the people of the world to promote new plows, tofu, and thirteen incense as soon as possible. However, the first priority of the First Emperor and the Dukes of Great Qin is not the people, but they will first think about how to do it effectively. conducive to their rule.
It is not that something is beneficial to the people, they have to do it and promote it. Even though the First Emperor is currently feeling the crisis of the Qin Dynasty and has made some changes, he is afraid that he will put the people first. too much.
Ying Zhengdao: "This method was not what I thought, but was proposed by Li Nian!"
It's Li Nian again!
The ministers secretly thought in their hearts.
Wei Liao said: "Although this method is wonderful, I think there are a few more points that need to be added."
Ying Zheng looked at Wei Liao: "Please tell me!"
< br>Wei Liao said: "Although your Majesty sent these new plows, tofu, and thirteen incense to all parts of the world in advance, he kept them hidden until he became emperor." , but how to attract the people that day, and how to make the people believe that the king wants to benefit him and others?"
"I thought that the new plow, tofu, and thirteen incense were sent to all parts of the world without showing them to others? There is nothing wrong, but you cannot hide it completely. You must create momentum in advance to attract people’s attention.”
"For example, this new plow can make people spread the news first, saying that there is a new plow that is better than the old plow, and it will be tested against the old plow on a certain day, that is, the day when the king becomes emperor. If there is anyone who does not believe it, everyone You can go and watch." "Waiting for the new plow to win the competition. Come out, and then take the opportunity to say that today is the day when the king becomes emperor. In order to celebrate with them, wouldn't it be better to give a new plow to the world? "
Wei Liao, it's just many people? The rumored master of Han Xin.
According to later historical records, he left secretly after the First Emperor proclaimed himself emperor. He believed that "the King of Qin is determined to conquer the world, and the whole world is a captive, so he cannot travel with him for a long time."
Originally, he did have thoughts of running away, but during the recent period, he found that Ying Zheng had changed a bit, and it was not what he thought, so he planned to stay and observe.
‘The king’s change must be related to that Li Nian, who is he? ’
There is another reason why Wei Liao stayed. It was out of curiosity about Li Nian. He wanted to meet this strange man who could change Ying Zhengdu.
After listening to what Wei Liao said, Ying Zheng thought for a moment, nodded and said: "I never thought of it, but fortunately the captain reminded me, do you have any suggestions? If not, then I will follow the captain's advice. Implement what you say!"
Feng Quji, Feng Jie's father, said: "I have a word to complement you, and Guo Wei's method is more appropriate, but you must be careful about being destroyed when implementing it. Xinli is okay. , but tofu and thirteen incense are both things that are eaten. If someone plots a conspiracy, it will be difficult to make the people believe it. "
This is indeed a problem, and it is okay in a place where Da Qin has complete control. , but in the land of the Six Kingdoms, although Da Qin seemingly captured those places, it was still far from complete control. There were unknown how many people in the area harbored ill intentions towards Da Qin.
When promoting propaganda in these places, there is no guarantee that someone will not deliberately sabotage it, such as deliberately fabricating that tofu and thirteen incense are poisonous and that Daqin specifically used them to poison the people, and even creating some "evidence".
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows. Feng Quji's words were very likely to happen. He ordered: "What Feng Qing said is reasonable. I will leave this matter to Guo Wei and Feng Qing and tell them. My dear, these are not the only things that I want to spread throughout the world."
These four things alone can cause a sensation in the world. Are there others made by the mysterious Li Nian?
After Feng Quji and Wei Liao respectfully accepted the order, a minister said: "Your Majesty, I think that the method of making thirteen incense is not suitable for spreading to the world. It should belong to the king of Qin like this snow salt. The people can just buy it, so how can they also master the method of making salt? If you let the people buy it, it will also increase the wealth of the Qin Dynasty."
He was learning from the minister who had previously suggested not to spread the method of making salt. .
Before Ying Zheng could speak, Chunyu Yue said first: "No, how can these thirteen incense be discussed with salt? Salt is a necessary thing in daily life, and the thirteen incense is only a seasoning, but it is not necessary."
"If it is sold to the whole world, the price is too high and the people will not buy it. If it is too cheap, the people will not be willing to buy it." What's the difference? Why not spread this method to the world to show the king's benevolence and let small profits lead to great justice? "
Chun Yuyue's words are problematic, but part of them is correct. Thirteen incense is not salt. It was not necessary for people's lives, so Ying Zheng rejected the minister's suggestion.
The matter came to an end for the time being, and Ying Zheng said again: "It has been decided for the first time today, but in order to govern such a large world, there must be enough officials. If there are not enough officials and not enough officials, how can the world be governed? ? Today I would like to ask the ministers, how can we ensure that our great Qin has enough officials?”
Even if Wang Wandang wanted to speak up and implement his idea of enfeoffment, there was one person who was faster than him, Chunyu Yue. .
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Chunyu Yue stood up, but before he could speak, Ying Zheng blocked his mouth first.
"I already know what you want to talk about. Today I will not talk about enfeoffment and prefectures. I will only talk about how to make Da Qin have enough officials."
