Traveling through the Qin Dynasty, I seized the throne of Ying Zheng's father

But this is not the case in the new era.

When I was in school, I was exposed to countless gaps, family gaps, life gaps, you are poor and your family is rich, and this gap cannot be made up by hard work. The invisible huge gap will make people despair. You don’t have to worry about food and drink, but everyone has to worry about it. Others don’t have pressure, but you do. And the good days you expect cannot be achieved by hard work alone.

The pressure from the spirit is more deadly than the pressure from the material. It is an invisible pressure!

Different eras have different pressures. Unless you are involved in the matter, you can never speak without any worries.

......

"Ha ha ha ha."

"I see. So that's how it is!"

In Cheng County, Ying Zheng was overjoyed.

This was the umpteenth time he had been so happy in this period of time.

"Borrowing money from the future to do things now, tut tut tut, this kid can think of this!"

After reading Fusu's words reported to the court, Ying Zheng suddenly realized, and some things that he didn't understand clearly became clear.

Yup!

This money was borrowed by the imperial court from the noble families! The money used to sell grain was from the imperial court! It's just that it's not the money of today, but the money of the future!

If it is an individual, you borrow money from others to start a business, and when the business is successful, you repay the principal and interest, and the remaining money is yours. It seems that you have not paid anything, but in fact, there are huge risks involved!

But.....due to the existence of the two epoch-making weapons, the waterwheel and the curved plow, the risk is almost zero...

......

And as the imperial court issued the announcement.

For a moment, the whole world was in turmoil!

The noble families all have a lot of food and supplies stored in their homes. As noble families, they like to store three things the most. The first is land, and they store a lot of land; the second is gold and silver, and the third is food!

Land represents the ability to create wealth in an endless stream.

Gold and silver represent savings and capital;

And food...represents the foundation that allows the family to survive in troubled times...

But now, the world is stable, and the curved plow and waterwheel have appeared. It is conceivable that the national strength of the Qin Dynasty will continue to prosper for a long time in the future, and the world will naturally be stable when the people live and work in peace and contentment.

When food is plentiful, the world is at peace. So what is the point of hoarding food?

Are you expecting to lose money by hoarding so much food?

Even if you don’t sell all of it, it’s fine to sell part of it, to hedge the risk and reduce the cost.... After all, after half a year of autumn harvest, the world has a bumper harvest of grain, and the price of grain has plummeted...

Just when everyone was worrying about how to deal with these grains...

Suddenly, I received a purchase notice from the court...

At one time, all the representatives of the noble families flocked to Xianyang. After they had some contact with the court officials and confirmed that the court's announcement was true, they immediately started to contact the court...

In fact, Fusu had no intention of setting a trap for the aristocratic families, and the purchase price was indeed higher than the market price.

Such a price immediately satisfied most of the noble families, and they chose to sell the grain on the spot...

The amount of silver in the treasury was decreasing rapidly, while the amount of grain in the treasury was increasing at a terrifying rate...

Ten days passed in a flash...

Xianyang City has already gathered all the food and grass in the world...

......

In the pioneer camp.

"General, the number of corvée laborers in the camp has reached 1.5 million! The rate of increase in corvée laborers has begun to slow down. It is estimated that the final number should reach about 2 million..."

The staff reported the situation in the camp to Wang Ben.

Wang Ben raised his eyebrows. Although he had already estimated the number of corvée laborers, he still couldn't calm down when the actual number reached this level...

If the number really reached two million, it would be more than three times the original 600,000 corvee laborers!

You should know that 70% of the income from the land reclaimed and cultivated by this corvée belongs to the imperial court!
