Chapter 728: Place for future business development
Xiao He paused and continued: "For Xianyang City and the nobles of the six countries, they have made a lot of profits.
However, for the land of Baiyue, the tribal leaders currently receive very few commercial benefits, so everyone was very anxious when they first heard about the issue.
But have you noticed that none of the tribal leaders talk about this matter much now?
Do you think that these leaders didn't know that Li Si sent people to their tribe to measure the land and then notify the tenants of the land? "
When Liu Bang heard this, he immediately cursed: "Damn it. In other words, I am the only one who knows nothing, and I am the only one who is worried. You three know everything."
"Don't say that." Xiang Yu said, "I don't know about this either. I have been busy training soldiers recently. Because I have to go to sea, I basically spend every day and night on the ship."
"Xiang Yu, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Liang said, "I believe you will be greatly rewarded."
"I don't think too much about repayment or anything at the moment. I just want to quickly complete the task assigned by Your Majesty, and then go home to see Yu Ji and the children." Xiang Yu said.
In fact, in Xiang Yu's eyes, things are not that complicated at all. He can just kill them directly and destroy the Maurya Dynasty directly with troops.
But what the First Emperor Ying Zheng wanted was Xu Xu Tuzhi, which was not like the First Emperor at all. This made Xiang Yu angry and helpless.
However, what Xiang Yu didn't know was that if Ying Zheng had not met Qin An and knew that there was still a country like the Maurya Dynasty, Qin's million-strong army would have occupied the Maurya Dynasty long ago.
Then the Maurya Dynasty also became a part of the Qin Dynasty. Then after the death of the First Emperor, various forces rebelled against Qin. Anti-Qin forces may also appear in the Maurya Dynasty. Then the territory of China doubled, and the history was like killing.
But now that Ying Zheng has met Qin An, what Ying Zheng wants is not only to expand the territory, but more importantly, to make the Qin Dynasty last for thousands of years.
As Qin An said, the First Emperor defeated the Seven Kingdoms, but did not convince the people of Qin, which led to the collapse of Qin.
There is another point that Qin An is right about, that is, the current population of Da Qin is too small, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a vast land with few people.
Compared with China, which will have a population of fourteen in the future, the current population of Da Qin is not even a fraction of that of later generations, which really makes Ying Zheng want to increase the population tenfold immediately.
Therefore, the current Ying Zheng is not in a hurry to occupy the Maurya Dynasty. If he can occupy the Maurya Dynasty with the least loss, Ying Zheng will definitely use the least loss.
Ying Zheng's first task now is to develop the population and develop talents. Only after occupying other countries can there be people to manage those places.
Because Ying Zheng's goal is not just the Maurya Dynasty, but the whole world.
Xiang Yu didn't know what Ying Zheng was thinking. Even if he knew it, he would only think that he only needed to use force to occupy the world. As for management, he could just find local people to manage it.
Just like in history, after Xiang Yu destroyed the Qin Dynasty, he did not establish the Western Chu, but he divided the world and returned the six kingdoms to each other to continue to manage the six kingdoms.
If you do the same to the Mauryan Dynasty or other countries around the world, it wouldn't be like taking off your pants and farting. Why would you send troops to occupy those countries?
Xiang Yu doesn't understand, but Xiang Liang understands very well that the enfeoffment system is no longer feasible. If the world continues to be implemented, sooner or later the world will be in chaos.
This world chaos is even more chaotic and cruel than the Seven Kingdoms War. It is even harder to say who will win in the end.
So after bringing Lu to Xiang Liang and asking Xiang Liang to write a letter to Xiang Yu, he analyzed some issues and asked Xiang Yu to think about it carefully.
However, after Xiang Yu read the letter, he still didn't take it seriously and insisted on going his own way. Fortunately, the existence of Yu Ji made Xiang Yu restrain himself.
Liu Bang didn't know that Xiang Yu had so many thoughts in his heart, and he felt much better knowing that he didn't know about the affair.
As a result, Liu Bang asked about the tenants entering the property and about Li Si's Chamber of Commerce for the People.
Then it was analyzed from the mouths of Zhang Liang and Xiao He that the issue of sharing the land will be over soon, but Li Si will not leave soon. Li Si wants to develop the Chamber of Commerce in Baiyue Land.
The business of the Chamber of Commerce is business, that is, doing business.
The land of Baiyue will soon become a place of commercial competition, and the business here will be very developed in the future.
Because there are two chambers of commerce here, the chambers of commerce will compete with each other, which will lead to competition between businessmen and industries.
However, these are good competitions that will only promote the development of business and will not cause it to fall behind.
Zhang Liang also told Liu Bang that the next step would be to establish workshops in various places, and a large number of people would be recruited. By then, he, the county magistrate, would be very busy.
Building a workshop is not that easy. Instead, you need to register with the local government, including the size of the workshop, the amount of capital injected, the number of workers, the wages paid to the workers, etc.
The most important thing is the business license, government invoices, etc. The workshop needs to go to the government to get it.
It goes without saying that a business license is required. Without a business license, you cannot open a workshop.
As for the invoice, it is actually one of the workshop’s tax payment certificates.
Because sometimes you can tell whether a workshop has evaded taxes from the invoices. Daqin is now very strict about tax evasion.
Especially now that the commercial system of the Song Dynasty has been implemented, more emphasis is placed on the taxes collected by merchants.
The root of all this is the development of agriculture, which allows everyone to choose to work and make money without hesitation.
In the end, Liu Bang didn't complain so much anymore. He only blamed himself for reading too few books. This also made Liu Bang suddenly want to study.
Another month later, the two fleets were assembled. One was the general's fleet, led by the general himself. There were a total of thirty large ships. Among them, Xiang Yu led three warships, each with one warship. Thousands of soldiers.
Xiang Yu had a total of five thousand troops, and two thousand troops remained in Guangzhou, with Xiang Zhuang in charge.
Although Fan Zeng is old, he went to the Maurya Dynasty with Xiang Yu this time, for no other reason than to know how big the world is.
Although he knew that Da Qin would never be the only country in the world, it was so difficult to go to other countries.
Now that he has the opportunity, how could Fan Zeng not want to go?
There were two supply ships, one fishing boat, and the other twenty-four were merchant ships. The merchant ships were filled with goods and the number of people on them reached 10,000.
Except for the thousand people led by General Lu, the rest of the people on the ship were sent by the tribal leaders of Baiyue Land, which was also requested by General Lu.
Only in this way will the leaders of various tribes in Baiyue believe in General Lu.
