Live broadcast of the old ancestor gossip: Feeding the black moonlight to Qin Shi Huang

"I leave all matters at sea to you!" Zhu Di entrusted Zheng He with an important task.

Zheng He was so excited that tears filled his eyes.

After comforting Zheng He, Zhu Di turned his gaze to Zhu Gaochi beside him.

After learning that he had missed a good era by stopping the project of sailing to the West, Zhu Gaochi received his father's "careful care". Now, feeling his father's gaze, he lowered his head and curled himself up into a round ball.

The key point is that he really thinks this Western project is too expensive!

But he was unwilling to miss such an era of navigation.

distressed.

Zhu Di quickly looked away, not wanting to look at this annoying son.

"Firearms were already used frequently during the Yuan and Ming dynasties. If you improve and develop your navy, there won't be any major problems.

Of course, this Yuan Dynasty is limited to the period of Kublai Khan, so forget about the ones after that.”

Yongle Emperor Zhu Di: [What about the air force? ]

He also envied the fighter planes flying in the sky in later generations.

“Your Majesty Yongle, have you finished building the heavy factory? Then think about the air force. Things flying in the sky have very high requirements, whether it is the precision of the instruments or the selection of personnel.

It's easier to build a navy if you have the foundation and the talents in place, but for the air force you have to create it from scratch. You can make preparations first and then develop it generation by generation. In the final analysis it still requires all kinds of talents and money to be spent on research.

Yes, a reminder, any research you do will cost money, especially money. Even if I can give you a backdoor and throw blueprints, it will still cost money. If you have nothing, it will cost even more money. The situation in each dynasty is different, so you still need different plans. "

As for spending money, every dynasty had prepared for it, and Zhou Jia's emphasis on it made them feel uneasy again.

While they were thinking, Zhou Jia said to himself, "You have a lot of talents from all dynasties, but it may be too late to talk about them. I will make a list for you later and you can find people by yourselves. We will talk about the details later."

The First Emperor Ying Zheng: [How much money do you invest every year? ]

Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che: [I just want to know how much money you have in your treasury now. ]

"That's too much. The report on various funding in 22 has exceeded 3 trillion yuan, including enterprises, universities, various institutions, etc. I remember that this year, the budget for military expenditure in 2024 is 1.66 trillion yuan, and the navy, army and air force are crying poor and asking for money again.

As for the national treasury, because of the virus in the past few years, the economy has not been very good in recent years, but it has been recovering and developing. I looked at the revenue and expenditure situation in the first quarter of 24, and basically all aspects are increasing...

Our current money is different from your silver. If you really want to compare, you have to exchange it for the same. Don't compare with us. Our various industries are flourishing and we earn a lot. If you earn more, you can use more. "

The comments exploded again.

Chinese

Liu Che thought that he might be out of his mind. Why should he ask such a question and humiliate himself?

Although the currency is different, the numbers still make me feel sour.

trillions.

Trillion!

He didn't even dare to think about ten thousand, let alone one trillion.

How much does that cost?

Sang Hongyang was so excited that he almost cried. He really wanted to rush in and shake Zhou Jia to ask her how they made so much money!

Light

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaochi and immediately put on a smile, "Boss——"

Zhu Pangpang's chubby body trembled, and he stammered, "Dad, Dad, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly... You're too scary."

The two younger brothers behind him also nodded slightly and took a step back together.

The one his father calls him is the eldest, not the second or third.

It's none of their business.

Zhu Zhanji, who stood beside Zhu Di with a well-behaved face, said: …

Zhu Di stopped smiling, returned to his usual expressionless look, and spoke sternly.

"Look at what you have become as a prince! You should lose weight when you have time.

You heard what Zhou Jia said, right? As for me, your father, I don’t want you to do the same as later generations with trillions. Just remove the word “billion” and just use the word “ten thousand”. It would be best if I could double Zhou Jia’s number.”

Zhu Gaochi was staggering. This was going to cost him his life!

Zhu Di said quickly: "Boss, I trust you. The second and third brothers can't do it, so you have to do it!"

For the first time, Zhu Gaochi's two annoying brothers nodded at the same time.

Correct.

The boss still has to come!

Only their father could come up with such a crazy number.

However, emperors like Liu Che were more curious about the virus that Zhou Jia mentioned.

【Virus?】

Zhou Jia briefly explained the seriousness of the situation in previous years, but did not explain to them how united everyone was.

The people sighed.

It turns out that even a wealthy country like the later generations also had such times of crisis. However, the later generations were obviously luckier than them. Their strong infrastructure was enough for them to deal with various emergencies, but they obviously cannot do so now.

"As I said, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. The most basic things still need to be done, and they must be done well. Don't think that those things are just a waste of money. The benefits they can bring you in the future will far exceed your imagination!"

Zhou Jia's words naturally made Ying Zheng think of Zheng Guo. Zheng Guo was ordered to build a canal to weaken Qin, but the King of Qin still ordered him to build the Zhengguo Canal. It was completed after ten years and irrigated the granary. Since then, Guanzhong has been fertile.

The construction of Zhengguo Canal consumed a lot of manpower and financial resources, and there were complaints from all walks of life in Qin State, but now everyone praises it.

The most important thing is not how much food and money he has consumed at the moment, but how much profit these things can bring in the future. This is the most important thing. If you only care about the small profits in front of you, you are destined to not go far.

Ying Zheng agreed with Zhou Jia's words very much.

[But there are also many corrupt officials. Every year when there is drought or flood, the people sent by the court basically do nothing. All they can do is to reinforce the embankment. But no matter how many times the embankment has been reinforced, doesn't it still get washed away every year? ]

[Yeah, who cares about our suggestions and adjustments? They will just say what do those ants know. We don’t understand, but we care more about our own lives than they do. Do we really want to joke about our own lives?]

Many people cried out.

Sometimes it is not that the court is inactive, but that there are too many corrupt officials below. Even if someone knows that they are not good people, for various reasons, they dare not be the first to speak out. What they fear most is that everything will be brought to their families.

Zhou Jia felt the same way about their words. Corrupt officials will never completely disappear at any time and human desires will always be endless.

"You see, Your Majesty, these are the things you have to deal with. Come on, I have confidence in you! And for the things you said that no one adopted, don't you have a system now? Just set up a forum and sort out the problems you face in the centralized banking.

I believe that as long as the emperor has a little bit of power, he will check on you every now and then and take your suggestions to heart.

This is a good time for you emperors to understand the people. Don't always sit on the dragon throne. When you have time, get up and look at your world. Only in this way can you govern the world better, right?"

Some emperors agreed, while others scoffed.

Zhou Jia was not prepared to ask all emperors to put down their high and mighty airs and get close to the people. As long as they could get things done, nothing else mattered.

"Then let's talk about taxation. Didn't we just say that our farmers don't pay taxes now? In fact, the reason is that now the industry is developed, so few people go to farm. Not only do our farmers not pay taxes now, but we also give them extra subsidies. Who is it that fewer and fewer people are farming now?"

Although he said so, Zhou Jia knew one thing very clearly. Now almost everyone's dream is to have a small courtyard of their own to spend their days leisurely, without having to rush around for work every day, sleeping until they wake up naturally every day, and enjoying poetry, wine, flowers and tea all year round.

Experience the comfortable life of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the southern mountains.

This is also the life Zhou Jia dreams of.

【It would be great if we could be like this. 】

[Yes, I envy your life. ]

Immediately, many people were surprised and envious, and they also wanted to avoid paying taxes and instead have the government give them money.

The emperors changed their faces. If they stopped paying taxes, what would happen to the national treasury?

But Zhou Jia was more serious than them. He sat upright, stopped drinking the beer in his hand, and said righteously, "No, no, no, that's not how it's calculated."

She swallowed and organized her words.

"You said that the taxes are too heavy. That's mostly due to the government. Let's not discuss it because if I say it, it might not sound good to the government. But normal taxes must be paid.

I tell you that farmers do not need to pay taxes, but if they have other extra income, they still have to pay taxes. Everything is based on national policies. They can't pay it or not if they want to.

Take me for example, I write novels, so I have to pay personal income tax, and it will be deducted if it exceeds 800 yuan. "

She sounded a little weak when she said this.

Her money.

“No matter how much money you earn, you must pay the right amount. Paying taxes according to the law is everyone’s duty… In short, the money you pay goes into the national treasury, either for infrastructure, military expenses or other purposes. If the country has no money, how can it protect you and create a better life for you?

Of course, I admit that there are many people in life who evade taxes, embezzle and accept bribes. This situation is indeed difficult to avoid. You can question what the court has used your money on, but you must not pay less than you should.

But there are two dynasties here that I really want to say, the money you paid not only failed to protect you, but even became a sword that pierced you. "

Zhou Jia swallowed the idea that paying taxes was an obligation. If she said it out loud, she would have to explain to them what obligations were, so it would be better to just pass it.

When she finished speaking, obvious disgust flashed across her face.

秦

Ying Zheng looked at Zhou Jia and became more and more satisfied.

Ok.

Very good, well said!

He is now more and more curious about what kind of education Zhou Jia and his friends received when they were children.

According to the videos they watched during this period, Ying Zheng's evaluation of future generations is:

His mental state is extremely "good", so good that it is hard to understand. He does not accept moral kidnapping. Sometimes he is particularly decisive and ruthless, but he is also very soft-hearted about certain things. The most important thing is that he is unified in his patriotism.

Although there are some traitors among them, they are generally of good origin.

How are children like this educated in later generations?

Ying Zheng couldn't understand.

He even wanted to go to the schools of future generations to see and experience the teaching methods there.

Maybe we can learn from it and use it in their Great Qin.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that maybe he couldn't do it, but his self in some dimension could!

Zhou Jia said that they usually start from that kindergarten. He could suggest that he and Fusu, who are still young in other dimensions, be sent to kindergarten to learn from a young age.

Ying Zheng immediately asked Miaomiao and Zhou Jia whether this plan was feasible.

Zhou Jia was about to respond to Liu Che's question, but when she saw his words, she couldn't help but scream, "What?"

She was afraid that her eyesight was not good, as she could not even understand this paragraph.

Ying Zheng didn't understand why she reacted like this, and he managed to hold his temper and repeat what he had said.

But Zhou Jia on the screen covered his head with his hands and lowered his head.

On the floor, Zhou Jia's mind went blank. After a long while, he said with difficulty: "Brother Zheng, you have screwed me."

The people of Wan Chao looked at Zhou Jia curiously, wondering what she and Ying Zheng were whispering about.

Ying Zheng was a little puzzled, [No? ]

"It's operationally possible, but... it's..." Zhou Jia had a complicated expression.

There is nothing wrong with coming to modern school to study, and Miaomiao will not stop you, but!

Your Majesty, as an emperor, is here to learn knowledge from later generations, starting from elementary school. Will he not become more and more famous?

She never doubted the ideas she learned. They were boring, but they were truly deeply rooted in people's hearts!

She scratched her hair. "Didn't I tell you that we study something called politics? Something deeper than politics is called thought. This is what we, the college students of later generations, are most familiar with. The influence of this thing...

Let’s put it this way. Let’s not talk about the thoughts of our teachers later, and just talk about the one in front. This thing influenced a country you are familiar with, the predecessor of Russia, the extremely powerful country that I told you about. It is also the teacher and big brother of our motherland, and we are now also guided by this.

It is the same road as Russia’s predecessor, but it has our own unique colors.

I told you before that you and the teacher must have common topics, but you will never agree with each other on certain aspects. Ultimately, it is on this point that the two of you are taking completely opposite paths.

Let me tell you something that might make you unhappy. When the sky curtain appeared, what was your first thought? "

Zhou Jia said with a relaxed tone and a smile:

"Your Majesty, were you thinking at that time whether this skylight would be beneficial to your rule and to the world of Great Qin?

Of course, this is not your problem. All emperors and rulers would think so, whether it would affect the foundation of your dynasty. Even now, I am chattering here all day long, which really seems to be inciting ordinary people to do something. I am aware of this.

But I am more certain of one thing, if it is a teacher, his first reaction must be whether this thing is harmful to the people and whether it will hurt them.

And I am sure that even under such difficult circumstances, he must have made an arrangement to deal with this. If the sky curtain really harms the people, my predecessors will use their lives to protect ordinary people and the land under their feet. "

Miaomiao did not record the screen at that time, so she did not know how the dynasties reacted, but she was extremely sure that the teachers and predecessors would make such an arrangement no matter how difficult it was.

Han, Liu Che was not too sour this time, but he was a little suspicious, [Are you really a fangirl of Ying Zheng? ]

Shouldn't Ying Zheng be the best at everything?

Isn't there a filter? Why is it gone now?
