"This..."

"This is a solution that treats the symptoms but not the root cause." The two disciples who seemed to be deep in thought, Qin Feng said proudly: "So I have two ways to solve the problem."

What the fuck?

Wei Zheng and Yang Guang looked at each other, and they both saw disbelief in each other's eyes.

It can be said that the problem of corruption has never stopped since the emergence of the dynasty. Countless emperors and generals have not been able to solve it completely, but Qin Feng said that he has a solution, and there are still two?

"One is what Ah Ying said before to select scholars based on talent, but this method can solve the problem of the aristocratic family, but it is not a big solution to corruption. After all, it is difficult for those poor scholars to keep their hearts after they are promoted to high positions. .”

"Second, it is open source, cut its roots!"

Wei Zheng was puzzled and said, "Master, how should this root be broken?"

"Why are salt and iron valuable?" Qin Feng said unhurriedly: "Because the quantity is scarce, and because they are indispensable to the princes and ministers, and to the common people."

"But what if I can find endless salt and iron?"

"Brother Ziyu, are you serious?"

Yang Guang looked extremely excited, but he can't be blamed for making a fuss, this fact is too big, big enough to affect a country.Not to mention him, Yang Guang, even if Yang Jian was here, hearing what Qin Feng said, he might not be much better than Yang Guang.

If there is enough salt, the price of salt will inevitably fall, the common people will get benefits, and those aristocratic families will suffer.But there was nothing they could do. After all, the imperial court did not affect their interests, but the salt was worthless. Could they still rebel because of this?

More importantly, salt and iron are worthless, and corruption related to salt and iron will naturally no longer exist. Who will do unprofitable things?

"When have I ever joked with you?"

Qin Feng looked solemn. At this moment, in the eyes of Yang Guang and Wei Zheng, his figure was extremely tall, almost like Shanyue.

Chapter 60 Seeds

Yang Guang looked at Qin Feng with burning eyes, and asked, "Brother Ziyu, where is the salt?"

"In the sea."

Qin Feng said firmly: "Sea water is salt water!"

After a short pause, looking at Wei Zheng and Yang Guang who couldn't believe it, Qin Feng continued: "Since ancient times, fishermen living by the sea have used flat boulders, covered them with sea water, and obtained sea salt after being exposed to the sun."

Wei Zheng was a little confused, Yang Guang thought about it, he seemed to have a little impression, but...

Yang Guang asked: "I really seem to have heard about this matter. It's not like no one has tried it before. It's just that it's okay to make a little salt, but it's not possible to make a lot of salt. Is there a way for Brother Ziyu?"

There is more than one way, the sea salt of later generations is one of the best salts.

Qin Feng nodded reservedly, and said with a smile: "I do have some ways to extract a large amount of sea salt from sea water."

"Moreover, Tubo also has salt, and there is a lot of salt, which is why Turks and countries in the Western Regions are willing to provide Tubo people."

"In Goguryeo, there is a lot of iron, but they don't have the technology to mine it."

"Including the grassland, if the Great Sui can take down this vast land, it will not only expand the territory, I know what you want to say..."

Qin Feng waved his hand, interrupted Yang Guang who was about to speak, and continued: "Many places are indeed desolate, but let me tell you, there may be inexhaustible minerals buried under these lands that can be used by the descendants of our Han people. At this time, I If you don’t wait to take it, future generations will definitely say that we are all short-sighted people!”

"After conquering the land, the next step is the vast sea."

"There are endless dangers on the sea, but there are also countless undiscovered lands waiting for us in the Sui Dynasty to discover, conquer, and colonize!"

That's right, Qin Feng said so many words, not just to show how awesome he is, more, he hopes to plant the seed of colonization deeply.Maybe it's useless now, maybe he can't help Yang Guang change his life against the sky, but as long as Wei Zheng can live according to his original trajectory, then this kind of seed will take root one day.

What's more, after Yang Guang ascended the throne, he would definitely carry forward this colonial spirit.Just like a dandelion, let the breeze send its seeds everywhere. As for whether these seeds can take root, germinate, and grow up, it is not up to Qin Feng to decide.

"Colonization..." Yang Guang chewed on the meaning of these two words, and asked, "Brother Ziyu, if it is true as you said, my Tai Sui really sent people to colonize, but after a few generations, if these people Rebellion, so what?"

This problem is very serious. After all, in the eyes of the ruler, it is important to expand the territory, but it is fundamental to maintain the stability of a country. Otherwise, it will be like the Great Qin, sweeping Liuhe and dying for the second generation, but Liu Bang is just cheap. .

Qin Feng smiled slightly and said: "I really can't guarantee that everyone will be loyal to Tai Sui, but if I don't send them out, will those people with ulterior motives not betray?"

"Do you want them to rebel far away from Tai Sui, or do you want them to rebel under your nose?"

"Having said that, there are always two sides to things. You only see the bad side, but you don't see the good side."

"Even if those people rebel, who are they?"

Yang Guang said without hesitation: "Treason!"

Wei Zheng on the side thought thoughtfully: "Men, what you want to say is that they are Han people?"

"That's right!" Qin Feng didn't save any face for Yang Guang, and said decisively: "Don't talk about whether there is an eternal dynasty, Ah Ying, let me ask you, if the Great Sui must perish one day, do you want to replace the Great Sui?" , Is it my Han people, or the iron hooves of the Hulu?"

Yang Guang was in a bit of a dilemma. As a royal family, especially a wise and mighty emperor like Qin Huang and Han Wu who aspired to inherit the throne, Qin Feng told him that the Sui Dynasty would perish, which was a kind of torture for him.

But he also knows that there is no permanent dynasty, at least not currently.

"I naturally hope to be Han Chinese."

"That's it?" Qin Feng said with a smile: "Besides, those places are barren. Da Sui always has a way to pinch their lifeline and make them obedient. If the barbarians develop, what should we do?"

"Hulu?" Yang Guang said with some disdain: "Except for the grasslands, other places are nothing more than ringworm and scabies to Sui."

Is the dream of the kingdom of heaven starting now?

Others don't know, but Qin Feng knows the history of the later generations clearly, not to mention those countries in Europe, our neighbor Wa country is not big, but such a big fart place almost made China fall!

"Clap clap clap!"

The pointer was slammed on the table by Qin Feng, and he said angrily: "How many Huns were there in those days, and the Turks were just forging slaves at first, what about now?"

Wei Zheng shrank his neck, it was the first time he saw his mentor so angry, he didn't dare to speak.

Yang Guang was a little unconvinced, and argued forcefully, "Brother Ziyu, I have already said just now, get rid of the grassland."

Qin Feng laughed back angrily, but he couldn't say that those small countries in the later generations vigorously developed firearms, while the place where gunpowder was invented by Tangtang used this thing to light firearms.

"Who can be sure about the future? When the ancestors drank blood and attacked each other with stones, they might have imagined that we would fight each other with spears and swords now? Maybe there would be such sharp weapons as catapults and bed crossbows?"

"This..." Yang Guang hesitated and said, "Who can say well about the future?"

"Yeah, since it's hard to say, how do you know that those small countries in the future will not have the possibility to challenge the Great Sui?"

"Craftsman!"

Qin Feng shook his head and said: "In the former Han Dynasty, there were no horseshoes or stirrups, so even though the Huns were victorious in every battle, they were unable to go south to the big Han. A tribe, satisfied with looting? If you follow your current thinking, will this horseshoe and stirrup never appear?"

Yang Guang nodded in embarrassment. If what Qin Feng said just now was a little vague and purely fantasy, the stirrups and horseshoes are real things and cannot be denied.
