Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

Chapter 210 Ministry of Industry and Commerce

The next day, the Xianyang court discussed.

As soon as the court meeting started, Ying Zheng announced two decrees one after another.

The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Commerce are set up respectively. The Ministry of Industry is presided over by Da Sikong, that is, the public loses hatred.

The Ministry of Commerce is under the name of Zhisu Neishi, and the overall planning and mobilization of personnel is decided by Zhisu Neishi Zhao Shu.

"Your Majesty, what are the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Commerce?"

Faced with Ying Zheng's will, everyone always seemed a little confused.

"The Ministry of Industry is a group of people who asked Gong Shuchou to take the lead. They are planning to establish a department responsible for the management of all craftsmen in the world, and will be responsible for all the weapons in our Great Qin Dynasty, as well as all industrial affairs such as iron smelting, salt making, papermaking, and construction."

"The Ministry of Commerce is originally responsible for all the official shops in Daqin that should be responsible for the internal history of the millet, such as Daqin Bank, Daqin Salt and other industries that are prohibited from private ownership."

"The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Commerce also cooperate with each other. The Ministry of Industry is responsible for manufacturing products, while the Ministry of Commerce is responsible for promoting them to the hands of the head of the Great Qin Dynasty. In this way, the possibility of those merchants driving up market prices, buying low and selling high, and opportunistic opportunities is avoided. , so that I, the head of the Qin Dynasty, can really enjoy the benefits."

After Ying Zheng explained the responsibilities of the two newly established departments, he looked down at the officials below.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this move is inappropriate!"

"What's wrong?"

A mere Chunyu Yue had very limited appeal in the court, and Ying Zheng didn't think much of him at all, but he still had to ask what should be asked.

"Your Majesty, my Great Qin Dynasty Hall is mainly responsible for how to govern the country and stabilize the hearts of the people. The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Commerce are responsible for managing craftsmen and merchants. Isn't it contrary to my Great Qin's way of governing the country?"

"In your opinion, what should the widow do?"

"Merchants and craftsmen are private industries. Your Majesty should separate all these shops from my Daqin's management and let the merchants manage them by themselves. All the income of all the shops will be confiscated. In this way, Daqin will not lose anything, and there is no need to bear the responsibility of a merchant. Isn't the name just right?"

As soon as Chunyu Yue finished speaking, Ying Zheng didn't even say anything, and the other courtiers had already started to frown.

"Anyone else agrees with this approach?"

Ying Zheng suppressed his anger and looked at the others.

"This……"

Among the civil and military halls, fools were in the minority after all. In the end, only a few people who were on good terms with Chun Yuyue stood up, and the others all lowered their heads and hid aside.

"My lords, what do you mean by this? Merchants are inherently lowly. They don't do production, but only opportunistic. If His Majesty really established the Ministry of Commerce and the Ministry of Industry, wouldn't my Daqin also become a shop? Your Majesty and I, don't we?" Also bear the name of a businessman?"

Ying Zheng hadn't said anything yet, but seeing those people were silent, Chun Yuyue couldn't help standing up and scolding them angrily.

"Your Majesty, I agree with your thoughts. Everything Chunyu Yue said has nothing to do with my subordinates!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am definitely on your side. I definitely don't have the same thoughts as Chunyu Yue."

"We are the same. Since His Majesty wants to establish the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, there is a reason for His Majesty. As subjects, we should follow His Majesty's will."

"You, you..."

"I'm really ashamed to be with you. Anyway, I, Chunyu Yue, firmly disagree with His Majesty's decision."

Chun Yuyue flicked his sleeves and said angrily, the hall was immediately filled with the smell of gunpowder.

"Chunyu Yue, are you still sticking to your own ideas?"

Ying Zheng's indifferent eyes swept over the few people just now, and finally stayed on Chun Yuyue.

"My servant...my servant..."

Chunyu hesitated and hawed for a long time, unable to utter a complete sentence.

"It seems that the widow still overestimated you. It turns out that your stupidity has no limit. Fortunately, you are still my doctor of Daqin."

Ying Zheng snorted coldly, then put away his momentum and returned to his seat. Arguing with such an idiot would not make Ying Zheng seem tough, but would only lose his majesty as an emperor.

"Do other people have any objections? Or maybe there are still people who still want to ask me why the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Commerce are established?"
