"Nong Yu and Miss Jing Salad also admire you, but they are not suitable candidates for the princess. They can be concubines!" Wu Rui continued.
The gap in status makes it impossible for Nong Yu and Jing Sala to become the concubines.
Jin Yao sighed. He didn't know where Fang Cheng had flown to now. If he couldn't find the place where Chi You said he would become an immortal, then according to the law that the earth is round, he should have flown back anyway.
"Let's wait until Dragon City is settled!" Jin Yao sighed but still did not agree to Wu Rui's proposal.
Wu Rui looked at Jin Yao and wanted to continue to dissuade him, but Jin Yao waved him away.
"How's it going?" Chen Xian and others were really anxious. After Wu Rui came out, they hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Perhaps because of the girl Li Wu in the Eight Linglongs, your Majesty has no intention of marrying again!" Wu Rui sighed.
Jing Ke curled his lips. He knew the reason, but he couldn't say it.
Your Majesty does have your heart set on something, but those people are in Fangcheng. No one knows where Fangcheng has flown to now.
"Then just take your time!" Chen Xian didn't say any more.
As a result, Longcheng disarmed, retaining only 50,000 standing dragon guards and 5,000 county soldiers per county for each county. The rest of the army was all converted to civilians, disarmed and returned to the fields.
"The war has stopped?" People from all over Longcheng still couldn't believe it.
It wasn't until the soldiers returned to their hometowns that the people of Longcheng finally relaxed and the war finally stopped!
"The government stipulates that before the summer and autumn harvests, households can go to the local government to borrow cash or grain to subsidize farming. Borrowing households are rich and poor, and ten people are guaranteed to check each other. The loan amount is divided into five grades according to the assets of each household, and the first grade
Each household can borrow fifteen guans at a time, and the lowest-ranking households can borrow 1 guan each time. The borrowed money for the current year will be returned with the spring and autumn taxes, and the interest will be two cents per period."
In the city lord's palace, Jin Yao wrote the method of government borrowing and lending into a law and taught it to Chen Xian, Wu Rui and other civil servants.
"These Dule stone steles should be placed between villages to prevent local officials from being corrupt and raising interest rates!"
The reason why the Young Crops Law collapsed is because local officials played a trick and raised interest rates, turning a law that was originally beneficial to the people into a law that harmed the people.
Therefore, Jin Yao requested that this law be engraved on a stone tablet in Longcheng and then be transferred to various places so that all households could clearly understand it and prevent the government from exaggerating it.
“Secondly, in good years, the government appropriately raises the price of rice to buy rice to prevent low prices from hurting farmers; in disaster years, the government appropriately lowers the price of rice to stabilize prices and provide relief to the people.
When the quantity is high, the market price will be reduced, and when the quantity is low, the market price will be increased.”
Jin Yao continued to talk about the Qingmiao legal system.
"Here!" Chen Xian and Wu Rui also wrote quickly, not daring to miss any point.
They thought that your Majesty was very accomplished in the art of war and might be bad at governance, but they did not expect that your Majesty was also very elegant in governance.
At least these things now can be understood by them, and they all find them simple and practical, but the hard part is how to come up with them!
Therefore, it was only after Jin Yao used the method of removing the old seedlings to retain the green ones that they knew that this king really had a way to govern.
"At the same time, the land of those powerful people whose families were confiscated and exterminated will be distributed equally to the people in various places for farming on a per capita basis. All tenant farmers will be canceled and all will be transferred to our new people in Dragon City!" Jin Yao continued.
"Here!" Chen Xian and Wu Rui nodded.
This is the point.
If those tenant farmers, vagabonds, and gangsters could be allocated land and have a place to live, you don't have to think about it to know how far their support for Dragon City would go.
In the past, when various countries went to war and occupied a city, they would first unite the nobles and control the place, but now, Lord Long has created another method!
All the nobles were killed or demoted to commoners, and the land was distributed to the local people.
For the common people, only by having land can they feel stable and have a sense of belonging!
Long Jun's move will completely turn Dragon City into his private territory!
"Make a copy of the land reform law and send it to Xianyang. It's up to the King of Qin whether to use it or not!" Jin Yao ordered.
Chen Xian and Wu Rui looked at each other. The land reform method may not encounter resistance in Longcheng, but that is not necessarily the case in Qin.
After all, in Dragon City, the nobles whose homes and lands were confiscated were also very satisfied and did not say a word of objection.
But if it were the Qin State, it might not be possible. The aristocratic power of the Qin State was too huge. Who would want their fiefdoms to be deprived and given to the poor people?
Ying Zheng indeed received the land reform law from Longcheng, and then summoned the nine ministers to discuss it overnight.
"Prime Minister Wei, Prime Minister Feng, Li Si, and Xiao Xu, what do you think?" Ying Zheng asked, looking at his right-hand men.
Wei Zhuang and Feng Quji fell silent. If they follow Longcheng's method, their fiefdoms will definitely be lost, and then the entire Qin, Zhao, Yan, Han, and Wei will also be shaken, and there will be no shortage of opposition!
"What Longcheng does, we may not be able to do!" Xiao Xu said in a low voice.
"Why can't I do what Longcheng does?" Ying Zheng looked at Xiao Xu and asked Hansheng.
"Because there is no one who opposes it in Longcheng!" Xiao Xu continued.
"Does anyone in our country dare to object?" Ying Zheng frowned again.
"Because those who wanted to object walked away peacefully without being able to say a word of objection!" Li Si tugged at the hem of Ying Zheng's clothes and explained in a low voice.
"..." Ying Zheng's mouth twitched.
I thought there really was no objection from anyone in Longcheng. My feeling is that those who objected were killed. There really was no objection!
"What do Tong Gu think?" Ying Zheng did not ask if Qin could do it, but what it would bring to Qin!
"Returning land to the state and distributing it equally to the people will naturally allow Great Qin to have absolute control over the region, but it will also cause dissatisfaction and rebellion among the local nobles!" Li Si analyzed the consequences carefully.
"It's just a local noble!" Guo Kai smiled coldly and said sarcastically.
"Why, Guo Qing has an idea?" Ying Zheng looked at Guo Kai in surprise.
"The king has the world in mind and does not want to kill the local nobles. He just moved them to Guanlong. But can he really make them return home?" Guo Kai asked with a smile.
"Otherwise?" Ying Zheng frowned.
"The king is here, because he is kind to them, so they naturally dare not bear the infamy and rebel, but what if the king is not here?" Guo Kai asked bluntly.
"Guo Kai is bold!" Zhang Han and others immediately shouted.
After all, this is cursing the dead soldiers of Ying Zheng!
However, Ying Zheng waved his hand and didn't take it seriously. Instead, he thought seriously. He was indeed confident that he could control these people while he was alive, but if he was gone, could the new King of Qin intimidate these people?
"Guo Qing, continue!" Ying Zheng asked Guo Kai to continue.
"They are allowed to keep their property and assets, and they are even allowed to control the salt field trade, but the land must be handed over!" Guo Kai said seriously.
