"Fusu's words do make sense, but the Great Qin Empire has been emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce for many years. If we change it so easily, it will be easy for things to change!”
After a long while, Ying Zheng finally let out a long sigh of relief.
"Imperial Father, it will take time for this plan to be fully implemented in Great Qin.”
"Why don't we do the same thing as the official schools and try it out in Xianyang or Hanzhong County first?”
Fu Su probed.
"Good!"
"Hanzhong is very close to Xianyang. If there are any accidents, it will be easy to find and deal with them in time.”
"If you still have doubts, you can also follow me and watch the promotion of Fusu's business path. Whether it works or not, we'll judge it based on the actual results!”
Ying Zheng made up his mind.
"We obey!"
Seeing that Ying Zheng had made up his mind, although Li Si and the others were still dissatisfied, they had nothing to say.
The First Emperor had always kept his word. It was already very good that he was giving them a chance to supervise.
If this continued, Ying Zheng would be enraged.
After all, they had completely lost to Fu Su in the debate.
Fu Su was also very satisfied with this.
Ruling a Great Country was like cooking a small fish, especially in Great Qin, where communication was difficult. If they wanted to overturn a policy that had been in place for more than 100 years, not just the commoners, but even the officials of the counties found it difficult to understand.
The reason why many reforms in history ended in failure despite having good intentions was that they were not properly publicized and implemented. The court did not feel the benefits of the changes.
Once the reform encountered difficulties, the diehards would counterattack and be unable to resist.
Ying Zheng had asked Fusu to choose Xianyang and Hanzhong Prefecture as the first trial area, which was indeed a wise and prudent move.
Even if Fu Su was inexperienced and had made some mistakes, Ying Zheng could still discover and correct them in time.
With the results, the important officials would be able to see it in time. Only with actual results could Li Si and the others be convinced and not be unconvinced.
It could be seen that Ying Zheng had indeed regarded Fu Su as his successor and was carefully cultivating and training Fu Su's ability to govern the country.
He had already done a great job as a father.
Fu Su took a deep breath, his face full of confidence.
Although he only had theories and lacked practical experience in the way of government affairs.
However, with Ying Zheng around, this shortcoming was perfectly made up for.
He only needed to express his thoughts and soar with all his might.
A father's love was like a mountain. Although Ying Zheng never said much about it, Fu Su had truly felt it.
A gratified smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face.
With Fusu's current prestige in the Great Qin Empire, even if he did nothing, his position as the Crown Prince would still be as stable as Mount Tai. All he had to do was wait for Ying Zheng to ascend to the throne.
But now, Fu Su had chosen the most difficult route. Directly challenging him had become a tradition for thousands of years, and he had even stood on the opposite side of Li Si and the other original supporters.
It fully showed that Fu Su and Ying Zheng were both people who cared about the world.
What they wanted was not the recognition of the people and the false reputation of a wise ruler praised by the officials.
It was a great cause that no one had ever done before, and no one in the future might be able to catch up to it.
This meant that the world map only had Great Qin's name!
What they wanted to achieve was to become the first emperor in history!
Ying Zheng was very happy to see that after him, Fu Su had also chosen this most difficult but most rewarding path.
At this moment, Ying Zheng and Fusu were not only father and son, but also the relationship between the emperor and the successor. They had a sense of confidante.
This feeling made Ying Zheng feel the joy of not being alone.
The father and son looked at each other and smiled.
......
In the study of the Crown Prince's residence, the decision was made.
Fu Su calmed himself down and began to plan the business development of Xianyang and Hanzhong Prefecture.
Because Great Qin had placed emphasis on agriculture and suppressed commerce for many years, Great Qin's merchants were in an extremely awkward position.
Although that was not as strong as the past, it was also a rich family, but it could not get the approval of the government.
Due to the strict laws, Great Qin's merchants were wealthy, but they could only wear ordinary clothes like commoners.
As for silk, only those with titles or official positions could wear it in public.
As a result, Great Qin's merchants became less and less enthusiastic, and by now, they had declined by quite a bit.
Many people simply learned from the old Tao Zhu Gong, earning money and directly hiding it in the treasury, then settling down and becoming a comfortable resident.
Fu Su had already noticed this when he was developing the paper and printing workshop.
It was not that Great Qin's merchants did not have money, but that they were very rich.
As for why they didn't reach the market, it was because this group of people had hidden their wealth, afraid that they would be discovered.
Help Su to do the work is to let them, dare to take money out of the cellar, use it in business, thus driving the development of the economy.
This required the merchants to see the real benefits.
Moreover, they needed to let the people see the real benefits before they would give up the deep-rooted concept of despising merchants and join the commercial trade.
This required an explosive point.
He had brought the stagnant businesses of Xianyang and Hanzhong to life.
Fu Su thought hard for a long time and soon came up with an idea.
At this moment, a maid's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
"Your Highness, Gongshu is here to see you.”
"Gongshu Yue?"
A veiled figure flashed across Fu Su's mind, and then he laughed.
This girl had a personality. Back then, he had asked the Shadow Secret Guards to keep an eye on her. He had been so busy these past few days that he had almost forgotten about her.
However, she could really be of great help in this current opportunity.
The Gongshu family was one of the most knowledgeable people in Great Qin.
Business and industry had always been inseparable.
"Let her in."
Fu Su waved his hand.
He continued to draw on the paper.
Soon, Gongshu Yue's beautiful figure appeared in the study.
The pretty face under the veil was filled with resentment.
In Gongshu Yue's opinion, Fu Su's actions were simply underestimating her performance.
If not for her good impression of Fu Su, Gongshu Yue would have left.
"Alright, there have been a lot of things to do these past few days.”
"Take a look at this blueprint. Can you forge it?”
Fu Su smiled and glanced at Gongshu Yue.
Gongshu Yue snorted proudly.
During this period of time, she had nothing to do, so she had already unlocked all 24 of Fu Su's chains.
He was confident that Fu Su had no equipment that could stop him.
He made up his mind to show off his skills in front of Fu Su and prove his ability.
Gongshu Yue took the blueprint from Fu Su confidently.
Then, he was stunned.
How did he do it?
Isn't this too magical?
