I open a restaurant in Daqin

Chapter 141 Natural Selection
Ying Zheng was silent, he didn't understand for a while after so many foreshadowings, but after Qin Yong's subsequent words woke up, he completely understood.

Yes, why has no one mentioned such a simple truth?

Qin Yong said again: "Scholars, peasants, businessmen, and businessmen are called cheap jobs. To a certain extent, it is not unreasonable!"

"Countries have been suppressing merchants. There are actually many reasons. First of all, merchants have too much profit, and everyone wants to get this profit."

"But once merchants become a trend, they will disrupt the rhythm of the world, and there will be only one final result. No one will cultivate the farmland, and no matter how much money you make, it will be useless. Therefore, all countries must suppress merchants!"

"The merchants refuse to accept this suppression, so it is naturally impossible to pay taxes. The merchants do not pay taxes, and the nations are even more dissatisfied. Therefore, the battle between the merchants and the nations has continued for thousands of years!"

"It's impossible for this world to be harmless, so the nations can't do anything to the merchants. The end result is that both sides suffer, and there has been silence!"

Yingzheng's heart moved, he looked at Qin Yong, and said, "It's so enlightening, Xuan Wenjun's analysis is thorough!"

Qin Yong's words made Ying Zheng have to admit that this may be the reason why no one has ever mentioned the cooperation between the state and businessmen since ancient times.

There are really too many pros and cons in this. All the countries can do is to suppress the merchants. They dare not let the merchants themselves become rich, and even raise the price. That is asking for trouble.

"But Xuan Wenjun, now the problem has arisen. If I, Daqin, really cooperate with the merchant, then what should I do if the merchant becomes the mainstream?"

The essence of the matter has been seen through, and the problem has emerged.

Although what Qin Yong said is very good, if this problem cannot be solved, even if Qin Guo can get rich instantly, Ying Zheng will never agree to cooperate with the businessman.

He is a king, and what he considers is not only whether the country can make money, but also whether the people have food to eat.

After all, if you don't have money and you are poor, as long as you have food to eat, at least you won't starve to death.But if there is no food, no amount of money can fill your stomach.

The comparison between farming and commerce is a contest between life and death and prosperity, and there is no comparison.

"Tsk, I said Zhao Lang, why don't you get enlightened? Look at the way you speak, is this from the perspective of a businessman? Those who don't know think you are the king of Qin, and don't consider the interests of the businessman. Thinking about so many big things!"

Qin Yong rolled his eyes, he didn't know what to say about this guy.

Ying Zheng was taken aback for a moment, feeling helpless in his heart.

Isn't he the King of Qin?Does he have to rely on it when he hears that it is good for the businessman?
"Whether it's a businessman or a commoner, it's the same in the civil and military affairs of the whole dynasty. It's not practical after all. We talked for a long time, and it was beneficial to the businessman. In the end, they disagreed. Isn't what we said all nonsense?"

Ying Zheng smiled wryly, and gave Qin Yong a reason.

Qin Yong nodded, he could accept this reason.

Indeed, the best plans for you are useless if you cannot satisfy those people.

"Okay, then I'll give you a good argument. You think that businessmen make a lot of money, but besides making money, they create too little value, which makes people unmoved!"

"But have you ever thought about it, if there is no struggle in all walks of life, how can there be development? In this world, there are not only virtues and rewards, but also natural selection!"

"What is the reason for the high profits of merchants nowadays? Isn't it because they are suppressed too much, making people stagnate, and eventually there are no competitors? But once the merchant industry is opened up and competitors appear, the profits will have to be re-divided! "

"You can either fight or be eliminated. You think that the business pie is huge, but in reality, how many people can it stand?"

"It's like the reforms of various countries and the survival of the fittest. Tell me, what was the purpose of the reforms of the various countries back then? Isn't it just survival? Who will benefit in the end? Isn't it also the people of the world?"

"And at that time, if businessmen want to continue to survive, they will have to constantly reform. Tell me, if their reforms are not beneficial to the world, can they really continue to grow bigger and stronger?"

"But once it is beneficial to the world, doesn't it mean that it will benefit the nations and the merits will last forever?"

Ying Zheng's heart trembled violently. Qin Yong's words, to him, were like opening up the world, making him seem to see a brand new world.

"Yes, natural selection, survival of the fittest. Those that are not good for the world will eventually have to be eliminated. I worry so much, what's the use in the end?"

Thinking about it, Ying Zheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, cupped his hands and said, "Understood, Mr. Xuan Wen, listening to your words today is better than ten years of books!"

Seeing that the guy who is always on the tip of his horns finally came to his senses, Qin Yong also smiled, and cupped his hands and said, "Actually, there are many things. If you think about it the other way around, you will always find the way around you. Just like the booklets are always expensive, poor children can't afford to read them, and they can't learn them." rise."

"But now, as a businessman, I create rice paper books, and sooner or later I can replace the world's slips. When the price is lowered, and with the support of the imperial court, the world school will be established. Why not have a steady stream of talents to improve the world?"

"This is natural selection, and it will benefit thousands of years!"

Ying Zheng nodded, and said with a wry smile, "Yes, it's only now that I suddenly realize that such a matter of natural selection will benefit thousands of years!"

"Think about it, when I went west to Hangu, I once said to rule by doing nothing. However, the previous kings of the Qin Dynasty could not do it. It should be suppressed and suppressed, and it should be controlled. But no one has realized that Lao Tzu's rule by doing nothing, in fact It's natural selection!"

While talking, Ying Zheng looked at the sky, eating and drinking, before he knew it, it was morning.

Ying Zheng stood up and said, "Okay, Mr. Xuan Wen, you've got a lot of work these days. I've got a drink today, so I should say goodbye!"

Qin Yong got up quickly, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, when you have time in the future, come out for a walk more often, look at you, you are busier than me now!"

Ying Zheng shook his head and smiled wryly, "No way, there are too many things to worry about!"

Qin Yong said with a smile: "That's not right, come out more often to relax. Between the two of us, is there any trouble that we can't talk about? It's always a good thing for several people to help you plan it! You know, this king is still When you have worries and need guidance from the officials!"

Ying Zheng laughed out loud when he heard the words. He liked to hear these words, and immediately said: "Okay, if I have any difficulties in the future, I will definitely find Mr. Xuan Wen. Farewell!"

While speaking, Ying Zheng greeted Li Si and the others, and finally left.

Qin Yong went out to see them off in person, and saw several people disappearing into the crowd before turning back to the courtyard.

At this time, Wu Ya was still greeting the fish in the backyard.

Seeing Qin Yong coming, Wu Ya trotted over immediately and said, "Husband, have you finished entertaining the guests?"

"The reception is over!"

Looking at this sensible girl, Qin Yong reached out and rubbed her small head gently.
