During this time, he had studied some "Tian Laws" and had some understanding of the land system of Da Qin.
Completely contrary to what later generations said.
Since Shang Yang's reform, the Qin Dynasty has been implementing state ownership and has never implemented private ownership. At least until now, state ownership is still implemented.
It's not because he wasn't serious in class.
But fact.
After looking through all the land laws in Da Qin, I can hardly find any laws related to land sales, nor are there any cases related to land sales.
This is actually not difficult to understand.
During the Qin Dynasty, Great Qin promoted farming warfare.
In addition to farming, there is also fighting.
Once you are knighted, you will be rewarded with land when you are knighted.
After hundreds of years of war, every household in the Qin Dynasty was able to obtain a large amount of land evenly. The Qin law protected private property, which also meant that after the land was rewarded, it belonged to private individuals forever, but the reality was not like this.
According to the law, land that has been given as a reward can be taken back.
This is completely contrary to private ownership.
Before unifying the world, the Qin State fought countless battles, large and small, in the past two to three hundred years. With the territory and cultivated land of the Qin State at that time, and under private ownership, it was impossible to provide so many fields and houses as rewards.
But Qin never broke its promise.
why?
Because the land is publicly owned.
The Qin warriors were rewarded with fields and houses because of their knighthood, but when he died, these fields and houses were actually returned to the hands of the court.
If it is true that people in the Qin State die like a lamp going out.
Not necessarily.
The exclusive rights of these fields and houses were returned to the court, but as long as the descendants of this warrior did not break the law and did not waste the fields, they could still continue to cultivate the fields, and the court would not forcefully ask for the fields back.
But the fields and houses were nameless, and no one knew whether these fields would be awarded to other people by the government. Therefore, in order to keep these fields and houses, future generations could only fight bravely to kill the enemy and perform meritorious service on the battlefield.
This is also one of the reasons why the Qin army is so powerful.
The chief official of Qin suddenly asked himself the "land system" of the Qin Dynasty. Obviously, he was not testing himself about what kind of land system the Qin Dynasty implemented, nor was he asking whether the land system of the Qin Dynasty was good or bad.
Rather, I want to ask myself what I think of the existing land system.
Someone in the court wants to disturb the land system!
Think of this.
Qin Luoheng's eyes were serious.
If he remembers correctly, it was this year, 216 BC, that the Qin Dynasty implemented the policy of "making the capital of Guizhou return to the fields".
This policy was originally intended to reduce the burden on Guizhou, but it inadvertently intensified land annexation.
Start with this policy.
Da Qin began to take a turn for the worse, going from a good start to a shocking and terrifying landslide, and it got out of hand until the building collapsed.
Qin Luoheng said in a deep voice:
"May I ask the officials, is it the court that wants to change the land system?"
Ying Zheng's eyelids twitched and he said calmly: "There are indeed people in the court who are instigating, but the First Emperor has no intention of changing his mind for the time being. Tell us what you think about the Qin land system."
Qin Luoheng hesitated and said:
"I don't know much about the Qintian land system."
"The Qin Dynasty was able to stand out in the era of great strife and successfully unify the world. It was actually far superior to the six countries in many aspects. In my opinion, the land system is one of them."
“The land system in Da Qin is public ownership!”
Finished.
Qin Luoheng paused deliberately. He took a peek at Qin's official expression, but Qin's official didn't have any strange expression. He knew immediately that he had guessed correctly. Da Qin was indeed a public ownership system.
He continued:
"If we want to change the land system, there is only one way to change it."
“Turning public affairs into private affairs!”
"But in my opinion, this is undoubtedly self-destructive."
“The great Qin Dynasty’s prosperity stems from the military merit system.”
"The military merit title system is to clarify the superiority and inferiority through the title level."
"For most Guizhou leaders, they cannot be promoted to the fifth official at all, so the land and residence are the foundation of the military merit and title system. Once the land system of Da Qin changes, the military merit and title system will undoubtedly become a burden."
"The system that Da Qinhua established over hundreds of years collapsed immediately."
Ying Zheng said indifferently:
"Now that the world is at peace, the military merit system is no longer appropriate."
"As you said before."
"Is it right to remain unchanged?"
Qin Luoheng shook his head.
said:
"The military merit system is indeed becoming less and less applicable, but abandonment and elimination have completely different meanings. Changing the land system is undoubtedly the abandonment of the military merit system."
"The military merit system can only be eliminated, but it cannot be abandoned directly."
"Abandonment means betrayal!"
"Can the officials dare to imagine that the old Qin people who have adhered to the military merit system for hundreds of years were suddenly informed by the government that the military merit system had been abandoned by the court? What they had persisted in pursuing all their lives, and even believed in, was just like this.
give up."
"This is too heavy a blow to the old Qin people!"
Ying Zheng's eyes closed slightly.
He said calmly:
"What if we only change the land system but don't leave the military merit system?"
Qin Luoheng shook his head and said:
"The land system affects the whole body."
"The military merit and title system is based on the land system. The reason why the warriors of the Qin Dynasty are rich in martial virtue is because they can obtain titles and land and houses by fighting in wars."
"Once the land system is changed, the court will definitely not be able to continue to reward the fields, because the land in the world is limited, and rewards will eventually be exhausted, and the court can only change the rewards."
"but......"
"What in the world can be as good as the field?"
"No!"
"Guizhou leaders have been farming for generations, they only care about the fields!"
"As a result, the rewards for working hard are far less than before. This will undoubtedly dampen the enthusiasm of Qian Shou for combat and will also cause the Qin army's combat effectiveness to continue to decline."
"When the Qin army's combat effectiveness is not enough to deter the world..."
"The Qin Dynasty will be in chaos!"
Hear the words.
A strange look appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes.
He didn't expect that Qin Luoheng could see so far.
He had doubts about the changes to the land system proposed by the courtiers. It was based on this, but Qin Luoheng was different. He knew nothing about the big politics, and he said these unquestionable words based only on his understanding of the land system.
, which is really surprising.
He couldn't help but glance at Qin Luoheng.
Ying Zheng asked:
"Then the land system really cannot be changed?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qin Luoheng hesitated for a moment.
He said firmly:
"cannot."
"At least not now."
"The world has only been stable for a few years, and it is simply undesirable to change the land system that affects the livelihood of millions of people."
It is also the way to die.
But he only dared to say this in his heart.
The world has only been at peace for a few years, the remnants of the six kingdoms still exist, and the various schools of thought and the imperial court are in harmony with each other. Under such circumstances, tampering with the land system is tantamount to taking grain from the fire. Once it fails, the consequences will be disastrous. If it succeeds, it will not be of any benefit to the Qin Dynasty.
.
Private ownership is not suitable for Da Qin.
Forcibly applying mechanical methods will only waste people and money, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
Ying Zheng slightly raised his forehead.
He smiled and said:
"The First Emperor also believed that this was a strategy to disrupt the Qin Dynasty!"
"However, the land system does not need to be changed, but there are some areas that need to be improved."
"Recently, various counties and counties in Shandong have reported serious land losses in the local area. Many ministers in the DPRK have also followed suit, hoping that the court will solve the local land annexation problem. As you said, farmland is related to the livelihood of tens of millions of people in Guizhou, and the court cannot
in spite of."
"But how to deal with it is a difficult problem."
"What do you think?"
Ying Zheng suddenly asked about Qin Luoheng.
He didn't expect Qin Luoheng to really give any good governance strategies, he just wanted to use this to test Qin Luoheng's understanding of Qin's land politics.
after all......
Tian Zheng has always been the government of the Qin Dynasty!
Qin Luoheng frowned.
He really didn't think about it carefully. He pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice:
"I suggest doing nothing!"
"Governing by doing nothing?" Ying Zheng frowned and said displeasedly: "How can there be any way to govern by doing nothing?"
"What's the difference between this and letting things go?"
"The counties and counties in Shandong are already in conflict with the Qin government. If you continue to let it go, wouldn't you be condoning the annexation of local land? In time, the counties and counties in Shandong will definitely be in chaos. Isn't your method directly putting Qin in the middle of civil strife?"
"absurd!"
Qin Luoheng looked embarrassed.
But he didn't feel that he was wrong.
Seeing Qin Luoheng's stubborn face, Ying Zheng also said angrily:
"After entering the school, concentrate on studying Qin's laws and regulations, "The Book of Laws", "Book of Shang Jun" and other Legalist classics. Isn't that enough for you to learn?"
The end.
I added another sentence.
"Read less Taoist books from now on!"
Qin Luoheng lowered his head, but did not dare to answer.
See the situation.
Ying Zheng was also so angry that he wanted to laugh.
These young men all have the same temper.
Fusu was like this, and Qin Luoheng was like this too. They all humbly admitted their mistakes and were determined not to change them!
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.
He cursed angrily:
"Nothing makes people worry."
"Fu Su talks about Confucianism every day, so it would be better for you to teach Taoism to me."
"Do you still have Qin Fa in your eyes?"
"Is there still Da Qin?"
"No matter what Fusu said, he mentioned 'leaving the head of Guizhou to live in the field', but you? He just said 'governing by doing nothing'. How is this sentence different from nonsense?"
"Is there still..." Qin Luoheng was about to argue, but when he saw Ying Zheng's sharp eyes, he honestly shut his mouth.
immediately.
Qin Luoheng frowned.
Whispered:
“‘Making Guizhou head from Shitian’ was proposed by Fusu?”
Snapped!
Ying Zheng slammed the recliner, stood up from the chair, and said angrily:
"shut up!"
"Fusu is someone you can call by his first name?"
"Young and old are in order. You are quite young. Not only do you call me the eldest son, but you should also call me brother. How can you call me by your name casually?"
Qin Luoheng knew that he had made a mistake.
Apologize:
"Chief, I was wrong."
He didn't explain much and sincerely admitted his mistake.
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, as if he had thought of something, his face softened slightly, and he said calmly: "I know that you will inevitably pick up some bad habits after wandering outside for a long time, but some etiquette cannot be abolished, otherwise the world will be in chaos.
.”
"Then what's the difference between man and beast?"
"Qin Luoheng must remember this." Qin Luoheng bowed and said.
Ying Zheng glanced at Qin Luoheng, with a look of disappointment in his eyes. He shook his head, sat down on the recliner again, and said, "Why do you have any objection to Fusu's suggestion of 'making the capital of Guizhou come from Shitian'?"
immediately.
Ying Zheng realized something was wrong.
He looked sharply at Qin Luoheng, his eyes cold and said: "You have heard this advice before!"
