Getting something for nothing?
Everyone looked at each other.
Were those smart and cunning merchants that easy to fool?
It was probably different from them getting something for nothing, right?
Seeing their expressions, Su Yu could probably guess what they were thinking.
"We can first use the manufacturing method of hemp paper to bid…" he explained with a smile.
"Auction?"
Everyone present was confused.
They suddenly realized that if they were to seriously discuss the problem with Su Yu.
There were still some problems with their communication.
Because Su Yu would always say a few terms that they didn't understand.
He wiped his face helplessly and said weakly,""The bidding is a method of selection for all merchants.”
"Place your bids one by one. The highest bidder wins."
"With some legal support and cooperation with Xianyang Palace.”
"I'm afraid any merchant with some fame and ambition will participate.”
"At that time, it shouldn't be a big problem to raise a few million yuan in this way.”
After saying that, Su Yu took a sip of wine.
At this moment, the dining table was extremely quiet. There was only the sound of the soup boiling in the hotpot.
Old Zhao, Meng Yi, Li Si, and Wang Ben fell into deep thought.
This matter seemed to be feasible.
Su Yu had already helped them circle the general direction and the overall framework.
All that was left was to perfect the laws and systems.
It could be implemented on the ground.
Old Zhao rubbed his temples.
It seemed that the recent memorials had to be transported to his palace by cart.
As for the only woman at the table, Meng Wanning.
He was looking at Su Yu with admiration.
As expected of an immortal!
Not only was he strong in martial arts, but his strength was also extraordinary.
He could even come up with such a constructive idea on a real national matter.
Although she was a little confused about the twists and turns inside.
However, looking at the First Emperor and Zhongfu's expressions.
He knew that Su Yu's idea just now should be worth a try.
At this moment, Li Si, who had become much more obedient, probed again.
"Su Yu, I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask.”
"Is there any special connection between the nationalization of merchants and the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce?”
Su Yu looked at Li Si with a smile on her face.
"Tell me your thoughts first."
" My thoughts…" Li Si hesitated for a moment before he continued,"
"The merchants of Xianyang Palace are naturally different from merchants. As for merchants, we can just deduct taxes as usual. Why do we need to change the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce?”
Su Yu shook her head and replied,"
"You're paying attention to the wrong place."
"Oh?"
"The merchants we support will definitely develop rapidly.
And their development was bound to be inseparable from the support of manpower.
This provided many sources of income for the people.”
"Secondly, the policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce was relaxed. Merchants began to develop.
One had to know that it was very easy for them to earn money.
However, the richer they were, the more taxes they had to pay!”
"If there comes a day in the future, just this trade tax will be able to support more than half of Great Qin's expenses.
At that time, they could gradually reduce the taxes of the farmers. Wouldn't the people gradually become rich?”
“呯!”
Old Zhao suddenly stood up, and the chair behind him fell to the ground.
"That makes sense! That makes sense!"
His eyes gleamed.
Why were farmers poor now? Wasn't it because of the heavy taxes?
She knew that and wanted to change.
However, there were nearly four million mouths waiting for this meal, so how could they relax their taxes?
However, if someone took on this responsibility…
The commoners were relieved.
Li Si opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Su Yu interrupted him.
"I know you want to ask, what if everyone goes to trade and no one cultivates?”
Li Si nodded.
This was what he was most worried about.
Su Yu shook her head slightly and said," Old Li, look at the long term. Is it so easy for you to be a merchant?"”
