"The reason is simple. Where do you want to distribute a lot of iron tools? Local governments!"

Zhao Long smiled and said, "In this way, the local government will have more iron tools. Isn't that the weapons equivalent to more weapons?"

"Of course this is..."

Ying Zheng nodded slowly after hearing this, "In this way, it would be better to hand it over to the Qin army everywhere."

"In fact, it's about the same. Administrative power and military power were quite special in ancient times."

Zhao Long said with a smile, "Even if the Qin Dynasty implemented the county system rather than the feudal system, there were still quite a lot of powers in the local powers.

So at this time, you have to provide certain restrictions to the local area. He can be very powerful, but not very rich, or vice versa, he can be very rich, but not very powerful!

Otherwise, if he had everything, it would not be a good thing for the central government.

And if you want the local government to collect this money by themselves, ancient agriculture was the largest revenue in the world. The court ordered that one child be collected, and they dared to collect dozens or even a hundred!

How much wealth will the court collect at that time? The food in the place will be full of food. Isn’t that bad for the people or the court?

So, instead of letting them collect money directly, it is better to let the court collect more income through taxes and subsidize the local area.

This means telling you that money belongs to the country and to the court. You can help with this matter, but you cannot collect the money because it is not yours. However, I can give you subsidies and some comfort fees in the future.

You have to make them understand the sense of belonging and identify with them, instead of giving them direct rights to them. Raising the place too fat is a terrible thing!"

Tsk tsk tsk...

After hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng shook his head and smiled and nodded, "Sir, these words are really and even famous sayings. I think so in my heart. Haha, sir, you have such ability to do it.

Official!"

"What official do we do? We are helping the poor, we will help the poor first..."

Zhao Longxin said, if my poverty alleviation is not done well, I will not be able to go to the department level or department level, and I will still be an official?

And isn’t this a blow to ancient history?

Not very useful now...

"Haha, you're right, you're right, help the poor first..."

Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Let's help the poor first, and you will have everything..."

"Hehe, you are quite optimistic. I appreciate your awareness of Lao Zhao!"

Zhao Long smiled and said, "In poor areas, it is indeed rare to see village chiefs like you who are enlightened."

"Ha ha!"

Ying Zheng smiled again after hearing this.

"village head……"

While the two were talking, Li Si, who had been listening but not interrupting, saw this, then said carefully, "Didn't all the iron tools collected by the Qin Dynasty court use? How many more can be given to the people?

? Could it be that you have to take back the weapons you used?"

Um?

What?

When Ying Zheng heard Li Si's words, his face also changed.

Yes!

Just as he was excited about the suggestion made by Zhao Long, Ying Zheng himself forgot one thing, that is, some of the bronze and iron utensils he ordered to confiscate were indeed still there, but more were used in the army.

, used several projects.

Of course it is not for construction iron, but for their utensils!

At present, if we want to make all counties and counties in the world have a lot of iron and bronze ware as agricultural tools, the amount of iron and bronze ware required is also huge.

Ying Zheng then frowned and thought deeply.

"I dare ask sir... Is it enough to use bronze ware?"

Li Si then looked at Zhao Long and asked, "There are not many iron tools in the Qin Dynasty and how many bronze tools are there? How many bronze tools have been used, you can find a way to make some more..."

"The copper is not too soft. If you use a plow made of copper, just touch a little hard soil, you have to smash it eight hundred times a day!"

Zhao Long shook his head and said, "He is too hard. Otherwise, the ancient war would not have allowed iron tools to gradually replace the position of bronze tools, right?"

This is...

After hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng and Li Si remained silent for a while.

Of course they all understood this principle, otherwise Daqin would not have attached so much importance to iron tools.

but……

Another indisputable fact is that there are too few iron tools in the Qin Dynasty. Although the iron tools have increased a lot in their era compared to the Spring and Autumn Period, the overall amount is still huge!

There are not so many things in total, and they have to be used on the needs of the army. So what are you doing?

Could it be that in order to allow the people to farm, the Qin army sent all the iron tools in their hands back and melted?

That is even more impossible!

The policy of first military affairs was the foundation of the founding of the Qin Dynasty, and this cannot be shaken by anything!

"It's a pity that Daqin lacks iron production..."

Ying Zheng sighed, and Li Si, who was standing beside him, immediately asked, "Sir, do you know if there are more iron tools in later generations?"

"Ah? You talk about the current steel production..."

Zhao Long smiled immediately after hearing this, "Of course there are more! Our country has a lot of iron ore, and it can also import so much from abroad. We are now the world's number one iron-producing country!"

What?

Does the country have a lot of iron ore?

After hearing Zhao Long's words, Ying Zheng and Li Si's expressions suddenly changed, and their hearts suddenly moved.

hiss?

There are quite a lot of iron ore?

Does that mean that there are already a lot of iron ore under the land of the Qin Dynasty and among the mountains and rivers?

It's just that it hasn't been discovered yet?

"gentlemen……"

Ying Zheng immediately asked, "Did it be that the iron ore that existed within the territory during the Qin Dynasty, but was not discovered?"

"Yes, many of these iron ores were indeed not discovered during the Qin Dynasty, and later they were discovered one after another."

Zhao Long said with a smile, "There are so many iron ore this kind of iron ore!"

Damn?

If so?www.81zw.??m
