Jiang Chen had almost completely unraveled the details of Shang Yang's second reform.
It was equivalent to feeding food to Fu Su and Meng Yi.
Even so, he still did not understand.
Jiang Chen didn't think there was a need to continue.
That was because it was a waste of time and saliva.
Fortunately, Fu Su and Meng Yi were not fools.
They understood Jiang Chen's detailed explanation.
The two of them nodded in unison.
" Teacher Jiang, I understand."
Fu Su replied respectfully.
Meng Yi, on the other hand, completely displayed his reckless character.
"Do you really think we're fools?”
...
He looked at Meng Yi in disbelief.
Fu Su really didn't know what was wrong with the third generation of the Meng family, who was usually very strict.
Could it be because he was sent to the imperial prison by his father?
He was indignant, so he was venting his frustration here?
Fortunately, Meng Yi did not know what Fu Su was thinking.
Otherwise, he would most likely spit out a mouthful of blood.
Isn't this the image of a reckless person that the eldest son of the Great Qin Dynasty has set for me?
Jiang Chen looked at Meng Yi, who had disheveled hair and raised his chin, looking arrogant.
He was not angry.
After all, he had experienced hundreds of reincarnations and thousands of tribulations.
Jiang Chen had seen all kinds of people.
Compared to some disgusting people and some disgusting encounters.
Meng Yi's actions were nothing but a piece of cake.
However, Jiang Chen felt something was wrong.
Was this General really reckless?
Why did it feel like he was deliberately targeting her?
For a moment, the three people in the cell looked at each other.
The atmosphere was a little strange.
Ying Zheng, who was in the secret room next door, saw this scene.
He almost burst out laughing.
Fortunately, he restrained himself in the end.
It wasn't that he was afraid of being heard by the cell next door.
After all, the soundproofing effect of this secret room was superb.
It was mainly because laughing would destroy Ying Zheng's dignity.
The First Emperor of the Great Qin Empire should not have smiled.
His entire body emitted an extremely majestic imperial aura.
"Not bad, not bad. Truly interesting. Zhen's arrangements were indeed correct.”But no matter how hard Ying Zheng tried to restrain himself.
The joy that was written all over his face was still very obvious.
......
He didn't pay much attention to Meng Yi.
Jiang Chen immediately forgot about the little episode.
He continued to talk to Fu Su about the third reform.
"The third reform of the Duke of Shang began after the capital of Qin moved from Yueyang to Xianyang.”
"I won't elaborate on the intention of moving the capital.”
"After the Qin country moved its capital to Xianyang, it began its third reform.”
"This reform has six main points.”
"First, abolish the original well-field system of the Zhou Dynasty and open up the border; Abolish slavery, state ownership of land, and implement private ownership of land. The state recognizes that land can be privately owned and allows free trade.
This move was to mobilize the people's enthusiasm for production.
As I said before, with the advancement of the times, the human race changed from the previous collection method of production to the later slash-and-burn farming method of production.
With the promotion of slash-and-burn cultivation, the human population skyrocketed for a long time.
At the same time, because of the change in productivity, social classes had also changed.
Some people who did not engage in production, such as priests and soldiers, eventually evolved into the noble class.
The commoners at the bottom, or rather, slaves, would help them cultivate the fields to provide for them and allow them to obtain wealth.
This was the so-called well-field system of the Zhou Dynasty. Slavery and land were owned by the state.
The land was firmly in the hands of the aristocrats.
However, such a system would seriously affect the enthusiasm of the lower-class people and slaves to produce.
The Duke of Shang's move abolished slavery, the well-field system, the slavery system, and the state-owned land, allowing private ownership of land.
In this way, the land would become the people's own.
In the past, the commoners were either hired by the nobles or slaves.
Naturally, they would not work hard to farm.
But now, the land was his.
The grain that was cultivated only needed to be paid a small amount of tax, and the rest was all his own harvest.
Their enthusiasm was completely different.
As a result, countless barren fields were reclaimed by the people in the Qin country. The grain taxes that the Qin country could collect were naturally much higher.
As a result, the country's strength became stronger!”
"This is the first point of the third reform. Do you have any questions?”Jiang Chen took a sip of wine and rested for a while.
Upon hearing this, Fu Su and Meng Yi, who were sitting opposite him, expressed that there was no problem.
Of course, Fu Su still replied respectfully.
Meng Yi still had a look of disdain on his face.
"Alright, then let's talk about the second point."
"Second, the abolition of the enfeoffment system naturally requires a new system to manage the local areas.
The Duke of Shang had chosen the most important system of counties that Great Qin had spread throughout the world!
The county system was implemented nationwide, and the county-level official power organization was set up.
The county magistrate was in charge of the county government, the county magistrate assisted the county magistrate in handling the county government, and the county lieutenant was in charge of the county's military affairs.
The county also has jurisdiction over a number of cities, towns, cities and gatherings.
After that, the small cities and villages were gathered into counties."
"You should all know this. I will briefly talk about the impact of this move.”
"During the Zhou Dynasty, the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty used the enfeoffment system to enfeoffe the various vassals, allowing them to manage the region.”
"This kind of system was still fine when the emperor was powerful. The dukes, big and small, were afraid of the emperor's military might and could only obediently submit.”
"But once the emperor of Great Zhou weakens, those dukes who can manage their own states will not necessarily take you seriously.”
"As the saying goes, the Son of Heaven belongs to the strong!”
"Although this sentence is not absolute, there is still some truth to it.”
"In the end, as the emperor's power waned, the power of the Great Zhou Empire was greatly weakened.”
"The dukes, big and small, are gradually no longer submitting.”
"The Spring and Autumn Warring States Period came from this.”
"The reform of the Duke of Shang used the county as the most basic administrative unit to replace the enfeoffment system.”
"Use county captains, county governors, county magistrates, and other officials who rely on the power of the court to manage the place.”
"It can greatly prevent the local powers from growing too big and getting out of the control of the Imperial Court.”
"In other words, it can make the country more stable and not collapse suddenly.”
"That's about it. Next, let's talk about the third point.”
Fu Su and Meng Yi had no objections to this.
After all, as Jiang Chen had said, the county system had existed in the State of Qin for more than a hundred years.
The two of them could more or less understand the importance of the county system to the Qin country.
And after Jiang Chen's detailed explanation, he was shocked.
Naturally, it could be fully absorbed.
"Third, move the capital from Yueyang to Xianyang and build a palace complex.”
"The intention of this move may be more profound because it involves a power struggle.”
" It's a separate course. I call it 'The Relationship between Class Power and Royalty.'”
He heard that there was a new lesson, and it was a new lesson about royal power.
Fu Su's eyes immediately shone.
Not only him, but Ying Zheng, who was in the secret room next door, was also the same.
After these few days of contact.
In their hearts, the father and son had already given Jiang Chen the titles of a born wise man, a genius, a pedant, and so on.
His words and actions were proven to be correct by the facts.
Now, he actually had a course on royalty?
He didn't know what the class power represented.
However, it didn't hinder the expectations of the father and son of the Tian family.
Come on, come on.
My brain is starving!
