Chapter 329: Valuing agriculture and suppressing commerce, valuing merchants

"Ye'er, what do you mean by that?"

"There is so much food, we don't need to collect it?"

Ying Zheng couldn't understand.

Great Qin could now be said to have food everywhere.

Not control it in Great Qin's hands to attack the Xiongnu?

"Has Father Emperor thought about a problem?"

"If it develops like this, Great Qin's sweet potatoes and potatoes will become a disaster."

Ying Ying Zi Ye had thought about this problem, but Brother Zheng might not have.

A disaster?

Ying Zheng was stunned; he really hadn't thought about this problem.

A yield of 10,000 jin per mu; calling it a disaster is understandable.

If this continues for a long time, Great Qin will be full of sweet potatoes and potatoes everywhere.

If they can't finish eating them, they will rot, so what is the point of planting so many?

Previously, he was thinking about the problem of the Great Qin people not having enough to eat and lacking food.

Now the problem is that there is a surplus of food, this...

Worried when there is no food, and now worried when there is too much food.

This...

He figured this out and was suddenly between laughter and tears.

Ying Zheng looked at the civil and military officials.

"Do you have any way to solve this matter?"

The ministers looked at each other.

They hadn't even thought about this matter.

Now, all of a sudden, what way could they think of?

The ministers lowered their heads and pondered.

After careful consideration, this problem seems unsolvable!

Unless one doesn't plant or plants less.

But in that case, these auspicious signs would lose their due value.

Ying Zheng had no hope for these ministers.

He was just asking casually.

Then he looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye.

"Ye'er, do you have any way?"

"Tell me about it."

This kid has many strange ideas.

And this problem was raised by him.

Perhaps he had already thought of a solution.

The other ministers also looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye upon hearing this.

They all wanted to hear if he had any brilliant ideas.

This matter is not easy to handle.

They hadn't thought about this problem before.

Now that they think about it, it seems to be a serious problem.

Ying Ying Zi Ye glanced at the crowd and slowly spat out two words.

"Reform!"

The ministers, seeing Ying Ying Zi Ye's gaze and what he said, couldn't help but tremble collectively.

Reform, reform again!

Damn it, how many people's heads have been lost in one reform?

They still have fresh memories!

Is the Crown Prince addicted to reform?

However... they couldn't think of any good way.

They did want to hear how Ying Ying Zi Ye's reform would be carried out.

"Reform?"

"Tell me, how to reform?"

Ying Zheng was also curious; is this something reform can solve?

"Change the strategy, value merchants!"

Ying Ying Zi Ye's voice was sonorous and powerful.

Value merchants?

Everyone looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with strange eyes.

Is there something wrong with his brain?

Great Qin has always had agricultural development as its main goal.

Merchants have no status, even lower than commoners.

Merchants are cheap merchants, considered to be using small tricks to profit.

Those who cannot be on the stage are cheap merchants.

Now reform wants to value merchants?

In Great Qin, agriculture is valued and commerce is suppressed; those who work hard in farming and produce a lot of food and cloth are exempted from corvée labor as a reward.

It is forbidden to abandon agriculture for commerce; those who abandon agriculture for commerce or are lazy and poor will be punished.

The ministers were quite speechless.

This reform is a bit excessive.

Seeing that no one dared to speak, Feng Quji jumped out.

"Your Majesty, you must not value merchants!"

"If merchants are valued, the people will all go to do business and make money, then who will go to farm in the future?"

"Please think twice, Your Majesty!"

The ministers saw that the Prime Minister had spoken. ===== CHAPTER 331 =====
