If there is something in this world that sounds mysterious and difficult to do, but can be achieved, Zhao Zhiai thinks it is trustworthy if it comes from the mouth of the Mo family.

Although he was surprised that what he said was more and more sufficient without paying the treasury, since it was said by the person in front of him, Zhao Zhiai only listened quietly and did not refute it.

After listening to a passage, Zhao Zhiai felt that it seemed to be a win-win situation, and it sounded like it was really harmless to the State of Chu.

This time, I asked the Mohist school for help, and the help provided by Shi can be roughly divided into two ways.

I hired the Mohist family to help repair and improve the city defense system in Yingdu. Since this is a recruitment, I always have to pay.

Help strengthen the defense power of defending the city on the Luguan Great Wall defense line, increase the chance of defending the direction of Luguan Fangcheng, and provide sufficient scale to long-range projection throwing weapons.

It seemed not much at first, but this crisis of inheritance rights in Chu State would inevitably not be resolved within one or two years, and it would require continuous external support later.

Money, food, supplies, weapons...

All of this is a lot that the King of Chu is difficult to pay for now, because it still needs to deal with future wars.

The way to repay the loan given by Shi to purchase weapons is slightly strange to Akie.

The interest was mortgaged under the tax on goods. From then on, the Mo family hoped that the King of Chu could give the Mo family the duty-free bronze festival.

In the early years of the Warring States Period, the collection of peer taxes and goods taxes had long been popularized in various countries.

Although the King of Chu lacks the ability to centralize power and has little jurisdiction, and the ability to collect peer taxes is not strong enough, officials still collect taxes in some important positions.

Decades later, Ejun of Chu received a tax-free pass from King Huai of Chu.

Car Festival and Boat Festival.

The above stipulates the scale of tax exemption. Except for gold, feather arrows, weapons and other embargoes, the rest of the goods have the right to exempt them.

The interest compensation method proposed by Shi is this thing, which is a must for Pei Peng to use Chu as a dumping land after he developed it, and it is also a must for uniting and cultivating some merchants who have an inseparable interest relationship with the Mo family.

Furthermore, a few years ago, the Mohist school had sent people to Bashu in advance to promote the development of the salt-boiling industry there.

The subsequent plans for the arrival of the Huai River at the entrance of the sea and burning seaweed ash to make a slumber, including the plan to use bulk materials to treat Chu as a broad market.

Now I can't see the power of the Mohist goods, and Zhao Zhiai felt that it was nothing, and it was said that this would be of great benefit to Chu.

Not to mention the mechanical and iron tools of the Mohist family, they were some of the goods and weapons that were urgently needed by the Chu State. It seemed that the Mohist family only operated the industry, and these were all beneficial to the Chu State.

After a long time, the Mo family had rarely been active in Chu, and the tax could not be levied, which was equivalent to using something that had not been levied to repay interest, and could also obtain the continuous stream of strange goods from the Mo family.

After Zhao Zhi'e thought about it, he made his own decision, thinking that he could agree to the Mohist school.

As for the Boat Festival, there can be ten or eight, and there is no limit on the quantity. Moreover, the Mohist school’s intention is to mainly engage in bulk goods, and small-scale goods will not use tax festivals.

Zhao Zhiai thought that he only needed to discuss with the Mo family that the goods could not be out of customs, such as some strategic materials from Chu, such as feathers, glue, etc., and the Mo family should not transport them outward.

This was exactly what the Mohist family agreed to, and immediately stated that cows, horses, rubber, feathers, weapons, etc. would not be transported from Chu State, but it would be possible to transport them to Chu State.

Zhao Zhiai only felt that the Mo family was simply too kind, whether the merchants had transportation or not, and some strategic materials in Chu were needed by various countries. The Mo family neither transported them out, so it was nothing if they agreed.

After discussing the interest compensation, Zhao Zhiai heard about the methods of paying the principal.

This method of paying the capital is even more important to Zhaozhi'e. The Mo family's mind is really the ideal straightforwardness to benefit the world.

The principal compensation method provided by Shi not only does not require a penny to spend the Chu State treasury, but also can really increase the fullness of the Chu Prince's treasury.

Because Shi said that the Mohist family can now smelter iron.

He moved out the two false masters who "Zengbuli" and said that there are iron ore that can be mined and smelted in Wancheng, Nanyang.

There are more Han Dynasty iron smelting sites in Nanyang than in Pengcheng, which is the hinterland of Chu State, which is the best place for the Mohist family to penetrate into the hinterland of Chu State step by step.

Therefore, the method given by the State of Chu to pay the principal was to allow the Mo family to start a mining company in Wancheng, with a contract period of 20 years. The Mo family would carefully make the accounts and distribute them to the King of Chu one tenth.

During this period, the rest of the people could also mine, but if the King of Chu could contract all the mining rights in the Nanyang area of ​​Wancheng to the Mo family and tax the rest of the people and exempt them from taxes, the Mo family could also give the King of Chu one-twentieth of the profit.

The annealed cast iron of blast furnace cast iron is an important material basis for the progress of the times and is also the agricultural basis for the Mohist school to make the world commercial exchange and handicraft development. This must be popularized in various countries as soon as possible.

Only in this way can agriculture develop, and the development of agriculture is the basis of commerce and handicrafts, which is very clear.

For Zhaozhi'e, iron tools were also what Chu State had always wanted.

The State of Chu did not have iron tools, but there were really few iron farm tools. The iron tools made by sponge and iron forging methods were still too expensive, and the production cycle was too long, so it was too expensive to make agricultural tools.

The ironware of the Mohist family is the main product of Pei County now, and Pei County is indeed a bit too far from the essence of Chu State and the fiefdom of Zhaoshi.

Considering the transportation costs, considering that the road traffic to Nanyang in the future may be cut off, and the necessity of infiltration into Chu State and the need to support a group of handicraftsmen and merchants, this method was proposed.

In fact, this is an extremely sinister method, but there is no such model at this moment, and Zhao Zhiai doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.

In addition to explaining the principle of the Mohist school, it also explained the principle of benefiting the world from the perspective of Chu.

First, the people can have a large amount of agricultural tools, and the essence of Chu State will develop faster.

Secondly, the King of Chu could obtain income every year, which was something that had not been seen before, which was equal to vain.

Third, mining is something like mining, which requires the "powers in the world". If the government cannot do it well, ordinary people without capital cannot do it well.

When it comes to the powerful people in the world at this time, probably no other businessman dared to compete with the Mo family organization as the first powerful person.

Technical issues are one aspect, but if you "recruit the disciples" in politics, it is easy to "escape without defending".

If the people are recruited to do it, they will also "have a grudge against the upper part and have soldiers on the border, and they will have old grudges and not fight."

Politically, it seems that the cost of the rule of the King of Chu is also reducing.

This is indeed true that the King of Chu would agree, because the ruling ability and level of Chu were too low, and even the nobles could not be dealt with, let alone the centralized power of the salt and iron franchise, which was difficult to reach the sky. The Chu State could do such a method, and would not be forced to let You Yin travel thousands of miles to Pei County to ask the Mo family for help and ask for the Mo family for loans.

Shi said that as long as the King of Chu agrees to this matter, the principal will be repaid. Twenty years later, if the King of Chu feels that it is still beneficial, then he can renew the contract. At that time, it will be a thirteen-piece share and it will be effective for a long time.

Moreover, this dispute over inheritance rights may last for a long time, and there are many places where Chu State uses money and weapons.

The Mo family also said that if the King of Chu really only engages in a defensive war, as long as it can ensure "non-attack", the Mo family can continue to borrow money to the King of Chu in the future.

You can even use "rent land", "tax package", "franchise" and other means of payment, and there is no need for the King of Chu to repay cash.

Shi said confidently that in this way, the people benefited the development brought to Chu State by the Mo family, and the wealth of Chu State also increased greatly, which was really beneficial without any harm.

After thinking about it, Akira really felt that there was nothing to question.

The Mohist family's actions were unexpected and no longer in the rules at this time. If it were others, he would have doubts, but this was what the Mohist family said, and he had already believed it eighty percent.

Just out of potential inner worry, he asked: "What is the purpose of the Mohist family doing this?"

Mo Zi laughed and said, "Of course it is for the purpose of 'benefiting the world'. Benefiting the people of Chu, and benefiting the battles of not attacks. This is exactly in line with the principles of the Mo family."

"Yiyi is the treasure of the Mo family, and gold and jade are the treasures of the merchants. These are all profits, but only different benefits. As the saying goes, mutual benefit is the ideal of the Mo family."

"In this way, the Mo family got righteousness, the King of Chu got weapons and cities, the merchants got gold and jade, and the people got iron tools... Why didn't the Mo family do it?"

Zhao Zhiai thought about it, but he didn't think about who was "not profitable". No matter how you look at it, it seemed like what Mozi said in the end: Everyone can benefit.

Since this is the case, he could only agree verbally, and the real decision was to make a decision after the King of Chu and the nobles discussed it.

However, Zhao Zhiai said: "I can know the Mo family's desire to benefit the world, and the Emperor of Heaven will also be moved. I think the king can agree to such a thing."

"It's just that I can't decide some things myself, but don't worry, as far as I know, the king will agree!"

The Mohist school offered such conditions unexpectedly, and it was even a bit surprising.

He could not only complete his mission, but also get enough rewards for his family's support for the prince's doubts. In terms of justice, he seemed to have indeed made contributions to the Chu country.

It seems that the Mohist family is a group of lunatics who benefit the world. Zhao Zhiai felt that if they were just businessmen, they would definitely not have put forward such strange conditions, and would only find ways to get the "golden and jade benefits".
