Li Che stayed in the Qin Palace for three days. On the fourth day, Ying Zheng finally let Li Che go. During these three days, the King of Qin was amazed by Li Che, and the law that Li Che gave him was regarded as a treasure by the King of Qin.
Especially when Li Che talked about a country ruled by law. It had many similarities with Shang Yang's rule of law, but there were also differences.
Li Che's method was to reduce the punishment if the crime was light, and increase the punishment if the crime was heavy, which was fairer.
And Shang Yang's use of a heavy punishment for misdemeanors was clearly against the original intention of the law. A heavy punishment for misdemeanors was not enough to convince the public...
Of course, what the King of Qin paid the most attention to was not the punishment but the rules and taxes. According to the Qin laws, once the business taxes were implemented, the Great Qin Empire's tax revenue would increase by six times.
If the bank system was established, all the wealth of Great Qin's aristocrats would be gathered in the bank!
The wealth of the world was in the palm of his hand.
Every time Qin Shi Huang thought of Li Che's words, he couldn't wait. He had to establish the bank system as soon as possible, and this was something that only Li Che could do!
……
Zhao Gao escorted Li Che out of Xianyang Palace. Outside the palace, Zhao Gao bowed and said to Li Che,""Lord Li is really amazing. It has been a long time since I saw the king so happy.”
Li Che looked at Zhao Gao and said," In the future, there will be even happier things waiting for Your Majesty."”
"Lord Li, you are indeed a genius.”
Outside Xianyang Palace, Li Che and Zhao Gao chatted for a while before returning to his own residence.
Li Che's mansion was very large. It had three courtyards. The first courtyard was where the guests lived, and it was also where Li Che received guests. The second courtyard was Li Che's inner room. However, this courtyard was empty. Li Che did not have a wife yet, so this courtyard had always been empty.
Further in was a garden. There were cypress trees planted in the garden and a pavilion. When they were free, they could drink tea, play chess, and play the zither in the pavilion...
After Li Che returned to his mansion, he felt a little tired. Back in Xianyang Palace, he had not been able to rest. Ying Zheng seemed to have unlimited energy, always asking Li Che questions. His expression made him look like a student who was studying tirelessly.
Now that he was back at the manor, Li Che took a hot bath and instructed the servants to refuse to see any guests.
The servants closed the courtyard door and hung up a sign that said no visitors.
After taking a shower, Li Che lay on the bed to rest. Not long after, he fell asleep.
……
In Xianyang Palace.
The King of Qin, Ying Zheng, did not rest. He was in high spirits.
After Zhao Gao sent Li Che back to Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng said,""Zhao Gao, go and invite Wei Liaozi over. I have something to discuss with him.”
"Understood!"
After Zhao Gao left Xianyang Palace, he rushed to Wei Liao's residence.
Ying Zheng was in Xianyang Palace, holding the outline of Qin laws that Li Che had given him as if he was holding a treasure. At the same time, he thought about the conversation he had with Li Che over the past few days, and felt that his vision had never been so broad before. It was as if he had opened a brand new door, and saw the bright and beautiful world outside the door!
After an incense stick of time, Wei Liao arrived.
Wei Liao was Guigu 'zi's disciple, learning the art of war and writing the book " Wei Liao Zi."
Wei Liaozi was Ying Zheng's most trusted advisor, other than Li Si.
After Wei Liao arrived, Ying Zheng held the outline of Qin's laws in his hand, pulled Wei Liao back with a beaming face, and asked,""Liao Zi, I came to ask you, do you know how to gather the wealth of the Qin country's aristocrats into my family's hands?”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wei Liao was shocked, his hands trembling. Then, he shouted,""Your Majesty, you can't!"
"Your Majesty, you must not attack the Shi clan, or the world will be in danger!”
Hearing Wei Liao's expression, Ying Zheng laughed heartily and said,""Do you think I would do such a stupid thing? Let me tell you, it won't be long before the Gu family will make all the nobles in the world obediently hand over all their wealth to the Gu family's control!”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wei Liao thought that Ying Zheng had lost his mind. The aristocrats were the greatest force in the world, and most of the officials in the world were from the aristocrats. That was simply impossible.
Wei Liao remained hesitant about Ying Zheng's words.
Looking at Wei Liao's expression, Ying Zheng continued,""You don't know how to take in the world's money and food, do you? To tell you the truth, I didn't know before either. Li Che! The scholars of the True Kingdom were unparalleled! It's not too much to be my teacher!"
Wei Liao was surprised. Ying Zheng began to try to explain the function of the commercial system and the banks to Wei Liao. However, when the words were about to come out of his mouth, Ying Zheng did not know how to explain them. When he listened to Li Che's explanation, it was very logical and logical.
Now that he wanted to repeat Li Che's words, he didn't know what to say.
"Your Majesty, do you mean that Lord Li Che has a way to resolve the problem of the aristocrats?”
"Yes, yes, yes! Li Che will be able to solve it, and it won't hurt the country at all…"
Wei Liao was amazed. Although he did not understand the banks and commercial system that Ying Zheng was talking about, he felt that this was a profound knowledge.
"What does Your Majesty want to do?"
"Supporting Li Che! No matter what conditions Chief Justice Li wanted! I'll agree to it!"
Ying Zheng was a monarch who dared to give power to others. If Ying Zheng was overly cautious, he would not dare to hand over the entire army of Qin State to Wang Jian to pacify the six states.
Wei Liao took the outline of Qin laws compiled by Li Che from Ying Zheng's hands. After reading it, his expression changed drastically.
" The books are written in the same language, the carriages are on the same track, and the weights and measures are unified. There are thirty-six prefectures in the Nine States, and the prefectures and counties are built according to the old sites. Most of the prefectures and counties in the six states are preserved..."
Wei Liao looked at the outline of Qin Law and was shocked beyond words.
"Lord Li Che, you have great courage!”
"When I saw the outline of the Qin laws, I was just as shocked as you! I've seriously underestimated Li Che's talent. Books with the same language, cars with the same track, unified weights and measures, isn't this what I want the most?”
After Ying Zheng finished speaking, Wei Liao cupped his fists and said,""Congratulations, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty decrees this law, the world will be settled!”
" In the past, I had wanted Li Si and Zhao Gao to revise the laws of Qin," Ying Zheng said with a smile." But now, it seems that not using them is the best choice. If I were to let them revise the laws of Qin, I reckon that they would only increase some punishments, and there would not be any changes..."
Ying Zheng knew Li Si and Zhao Gao very well. Li Si was afraid of trouble, and Zhao Gao was fawning. If they were asked to revise the laws of Qin, they would definitely add in the laws according to their own preferences. Moreover, they would not change the laws that were set regarding business...
