"Your Majesty, the construction of the paper mill has been completed. The first batch of paper has been manufactured. The supply of the brown sugar mill is in short supply.”
In the imperial court, a white-haired official reported the progress of the paper mill and the brown sugar mill.
The First Emperor's expression was calm as he said,""The Brown Sugar Mill is based on the scale of hundreds of thousands of people in Xianyang. How can there be a situation where the supply exceeds the demand? Could it be that someone is deliberately hoarding it?"
Back when they were discussing, the supply of the Brown Sugar Mill to Xianyang was more than enough. How could there be a situation where the supply exceeded the demand?
If someone really dared to hoard brown sugar, they would be severely punished.
Currently, brown sugar was controlled by the government of Great Qin, and its importance was no less than that of the salt industry.
If any businessmen dared to get involved in the brown sugar business, they would probably have to kill a group of bold businessmen as a warning to others!
"Your Majesty, I have sent people to monitor the situation. There is no hoarding, but…”
The official wiped the sweat off his forehead.
It seemed that because of his old age, he felt powerless to speak a few words. His forehead was already sweating.
He saw the Emperor's puzzled expression.
Li Si immediately stepped forward and explained," Your Majesty, because of the appearance of the commercial street, merchants gathered together and accelerated the flow of trade.
Therefore, once the brown sugar shop was sold on the commercial street, it was immediately sold out by merchants and sold to all the counties in the country.”
Instantly, the eyes of all the officials in the court widened in shock.
In the past, Great Qin had also done business with the six countries.
Especially Qi State, its economic development was almost controlled by Qin State.
Ying Zheng requested the seven kingdoms to unify their language, and Qi was the first to yield.
Even if the Confucian scholars of Jixia Learning Palace caused trouble, they were still unable to stop the implementation of the written language.
This was because if they did not use the new language, they would not be able to sign contracts in trade.
King Qi had no choice but to lower his head.
So what if a smart person saw through the Qin country's intentions?
Once Qin and Qi cut off their trade, Qi's economy would collapse.
This was also the reason why he had 500,000 soldiers, but he did not dare to send reinforcements when he saw Zhao Han being destroyed.
Even so, there had never been a scene where merchants flocked to meet the demand.
Brown sugar quickly replaced honey and cerealose. The low price was one thing.
The construction of the commercial street was also one of the reasons.
Great Qin's merchants were all gathered on one street, increasing the speed of trade.
It formed a large wholesale gathering place.
It was like a modern farmer's market!
Even the people of Xianyang City liked to go to the commercial street to buy a wide variety of goods.
The price of the commercial street was also rising rapidly.
Even though the price of a shop was already extremely high, there were still many wealthy merchants who spent a lot of money to buy a shop.
Fortunately, Xianyang City didn't have a city wall. After planning, it was being expanded and built.
As Li Si reported, he sighed inwardly.
The Eldest Young Master was erudite and talented. He did not expect that he was also very talented in business.
Following his suggestion, the merchants from all over the country gathered together.
Not only did it promote Xianyang's economy and trade, but it also made it easier for the management to collect taxes.
The increased business tax also greatly replenished the national treasury.
In just a few days, the amount of tax they had collected was equivalent to Great Qin's monthly tax.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a genius!
Moreover, the increase in the business tax did not cause any resistance from the merchants. Instead, it caused more merchants to flood into the business street.
If this continued, Great Qin would be able to completely control the entire country's trade.
Although many people in the imperial court disdained business, they were still quite surprised by this feat.
In the line, a thin old man lowered his head.
This person was the Honored Guest, Dunrou, who was in charge of sowing discord, spreading rumors, assassinating important figures of the enemy country, collecting intelligence, and so on.
He had made many contributions to Great Qin's destruction of the six countries.
In the past, it was Deputy Chief Qi who fell into the Huangpu River after being shot…
Pah, no!
He was in charge of external affairs together with Yao Jia.
Unfortunately, Yao Jia passed away not long after Great Qin unified the world.
There was no war in the world, and Dunrou, the leader in charge of intelligence, bribery, and assassination, also fell silent.
However, after hearing that Great Qin controlled the entire country's trade, his sharp senses seemed to have thought of something.
A glint flashed across his turbid old eyes.
Then, it fell silent again.
After Great Qin unified the world, there was no longer any war.
This hero who controlled the spies had nothing to do.
"Mm, very good!"
The First Emperor nodded slightly, and a satisfied smile appeared on his dignified face.
He was very satisfied with the increase in tax revenue.
The increase in national strength meant that Great Qin was becoming more and more powerful under his rule!
The completion of the paper mill made the First Emperor's use of the newspaper office rise.
If he could really suppress all the scholars in the world, it would solve the most troublesome problem!
She valued her son even more.
suddenly
Gui Zhen stepped forward and said with a gloomy face,"Your Majesty, I want to impeach someone!”
"Who is impeached?"
The First Emperor's voice was calm, but he was disgusted by these professors who only knew how to cause trouble.
"The president of the news agency, Qin Xuan!"
Gui Zhen's loud voice was filled with anger.
The great Great Qin Professor was actually toyed with by a hairless junior.
If he didn't vent his anger, how could he regain his face?
"I also impeach Qin Xuan!"
"I too!"
"I too!"
Immediately after, another seven professors stood up.
Shing ~!
The First Emperor narrowed his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Zhao Gao stood at the side with his head lowered and stole a glance.
He sneered in his heart, A bunch of reckless things!”
Li Si turned to look and his lips curled up slightly as a look of disdain appeared on his face.
The Eldest Young Master had just done a few big things for the Emperor, and it was time for him to be favored.
Impeachment at this juncture…
These old things had to jump out and cause trouble, so he was happy to watch the show.
"I impeach Qin Xuan for disregarding etiquette and playing around…”
Gui Zhen recounted the events of yesterday and even listed ten crimes.
The old thing was ruthless enough. According to the Qin laws, these crimes were enough to wipe out the three clans.
If Qin Xuan was present, he would definitely not be able to help but complain, As expected, these scholars were not good at governing the country, but they were better at internal strife!
"Your Majesty, please imprison Qin Xuan!”
The other seven professors spoke and raised their heads, looking as if they were saying," Do as you see fit."
A great scholar of the present age was actually being toyed with by a little brat. This was looking down on the scholarly faction.
In the eyes of these people, this kid had humiliated a great scholar and deserved to be killed!
Otherwise, it wouldn't be enough to regain the scholarly faction's face!
As for whether the three tribes would implicate the innocent, it was not within their consideration.
They were just a few lowlifes. So what if they were killed?
"Good, very good!"
The First Emperor ordered in a low voice, his voice filled with anger.
"Zhao Gao, bring that kid here!"
