What did he mean?
Isn't this sowing discord!
If Sun Huan was a hothead, he would have just said that he could rely on himself.
Wouldn't that offend Baiqi?
If he said that he couldn't do it, wouldn't he lose face?
Although Sun Huan wasn't very interested in the position of Minister, Lu Buwei had provoked him.
Sun Huan was not someone to be trifled with.
"Haha…"
Sun Huan chuckled as he nibbled on his drumstick.
"Hmm?"
Many eyes fell on Sun Huan at the same time.
“……”
Ying Zheng rolled his eyes and immediately understood what had happened.
However, he was very willing to see Sun Huan make a fool of himself.
"Master, what do you think?"
Sun Huan pursed his lips.
An agricultural powerhouse far surpassing the Six Nations?
So this was all he was pursuing?
If you want the people to live a good life, just farming is enough?
Since Sun Huan was determined to change Great Qin, he had no other choice.
Of course, he had to change his thoughts that were two thousand years behind.
"Minister Lyu, you are wrong. Although agriculture is important, the most important thing is still industry!”
Sun Huan put down the chicken bone and stood up.
His eyes were filled with determination, and his voice resounded throughout the entire arena.
Ying Zheng looked at Sun Huan in surprise.
This was the first time he had heard of the word 'industrial'.
He just needed to quietly watch his master act tough.
Not to be outdone, Lu Buwei stood up and waved his hand.
"Lord Shang once said that the country will be at peace when it is in the midst of war, and the monarch will be respected when it is in the midst of war. Great Qin is a strong country through agriculture. It can feed all of Great Qin's people?”
Zhao Ji's expression instantly changed.
She could tell that Lu Buwei was defending his regime and using it to suppress Sun Huan.
He had thought that Sun Huan would have some other brilliant ideas, but Lu Buwei's words had struck his heart.
When Zhao Ji heard this, she could not help but shake her head and sigh.
It seemed that Sir did not understand Great Qin's situation well enough and had been tripped up by Lu Buwei. Moreover, Sir was young and impetuous, so he had come to such a conclusion.
However, Ying Zheng was looking at Sun Huan with great interest.
He knew that his master would not just say that.
"Haha!"
Sun Huan smiled.
Not to mention the Warring States Period, even if it was two thousand years later, before the establishment of the New Heaven Dynasty.
China was also developing a small-scale peasant economy.
This kind of economic form created a prosperous era of self-reliance, but it also created self-restraint and blocked cultural exchanges.
Until the Ming Dynasty, where they even began to close the country.
Therefore, since ancient times, scholars, farmers, businessmen and merchants have been the most important.
The status of a merchant was not as important as that of a worker in ancient times.
In the eyes of a modern person like Sun Huan, agriculture was really difficult to handle.
This was because industry would beat agriculture to a pulp.
The kind that could be killed in seconds.
Just look at the things around the future generations.
Which one of them wasn't an industrial product?
"Minister, what is this industry? I'm willing to hear the details!"
Lu Buwei looked at Sun Huan with a smug smile on his face.
Even Zhao Ji looked at Sun Huan worriedly.
Sun Huan smiled.
"Minister Lyu, have you heard of an ancient saying,'carve a boat to seek a sword'?”
Instantly, everyone's expression changed.
They all looked at Sun Huan in disbelief.
F * ck!
Carving a boat for a sword was a famous allusion in the Spring and Autumn Annals of the Lu family.
Wasn't this mister seeking medical help in an emergency?
He was swinging his axe all the way to the entrance of Luban.
Lu Buwei became even more arrogant.
Tears were about to fall from her eyes.
Seeking a sword by carving a boat? Lu Buwei had asked someone to compile this story!
"Sir, what you want to say is that sticking to dogma and being stubborn is tantamount to carving a boat for a sword, right?”
"Looks like the master that His Majesty found isn't much!”
"I think Your Majesty, you should return to the palace as soon as possible. I'll send someone to find you a great virtue to be your Grand Preceptor!”
Sun Huan smiled coldly.
"Minister Lyu only understood the first layer of meaning. What Minister Lyu said just now was a famous saying from the Shang Dynasty, but you used it in Great Qin hundreds of years later.”
Lu Buwei was rendered speechless.
Gritting his teeth, he cupped his hands and said," Then, Sir, what's so magical about this industry? Minister, please don't speak carelessly. His Majesty is present and saying the wrong thing is the crime of deceiving the emperor!”
Sun Huan was truly enraged.
I can't even handle you!
Back then, he was also the best debater in university debates!
How amazing was Lu Buwei?
Sun Huan suppressed the anger in his heart and his expression became serious for no reason.
"Minister Lyu, there is one person who has witnessed how powerful the industry is. Moreover, this person is a relative of Minister Lyu!”
"Why don't Minister Lu invite Lu Duo over?”
Ying Zheng, who was standing at the side, was even more curious about what industry his Master was talking about.
He could not help but wave his hand.
"Men, bring Lu Duo up!"
Not long after, Lu Duo was pressed onto the dining table.
Her face was red, and it was obvious that she had drunk a lot.
Just now, he was bragging to the soldiers about having a meal with Ying Zheng.
In the end, he was directly dragged over.
For a moment, she was a little flustered.
"Your Majesty, this commoner greets Your Majesty! I wish Your Majesty great fortune! Longevity…Longevity is as long as the heavens, longevity is boundless…"
"Alright! Lu Duo, the Prime Minister has something to ask you.”
Lu Duo looked at Sun Huan submissively, then glanced at Lu Buwei.
"Yes!"
When Lu Buwei saw Lu Duo, he snorted coldly." Lu Duo, do you know what industry is? Tell me quickly."”
Lu Duo was immediately confused.
Industry?
I've never heard of it!
Just as Lu Duo was thinking hard, Sun Huan spoke.
"Ludo, do you remember the crystal cup I sold you? Iron and cloth?"
Lu Duo nodded.
"I remember, I remember! The cloth, ironware, and crystal cups that Sir sold were extremely cheap, and the quality was surprisingly good.”
" Especially the ironware. They are all divine weapons that can cut hair easily. A kitchen knife that weighs five pounds can only be sold for..."
"How much is it?"
"Only for ten coins!"
With Ying Zheng present, Lu Duo did not dare to lie.
However, Lu Buwei's expression changed.
As a businessman, how could he not know the price of ironware?
A kitchen knife that looked like a divine weapon was only sold for ten coins?
This was f * cking crazy. Was he doing charity?
Lu Buwei shook his head.
"A kitchen knife is only sold for ten yuan, which is not even one-tenth of the cost. Lu Duo, did you see it with your own eyes?”
"Prime Minister, Lu Duo saw it with his own eyes. There are more than a thousand pieces of iron, and each one is only sold for ten coins!”
"More than thirty thousand bolts of cloth, impervious to water! Each roll of cloth was only ten coins!”
"Not only that, but they also became top-grade crystal cups. Each cup is only sold for one gold coin!”
As he spoke, Lu Duo took out a glass cup from his chest and placed it in front of Lu Buwei.
How was this a good quality!
Lu Buwei had never seen such a transparent crystal cup!
He didn't understand.
What was Sun Huan doing?
