Chapter 1733. Economically controlling a country
Although the Qin Dynasty is not very good at military affairs, after this war, the Qin State can have at least 200,000 elite soldiers who have experienced the test of the war.
The military quality can be at least one step higher.
This even barely makes up for some shortcomings.
Most importantly, economical!
Da Qin's economy could completely defeat the Liao and Jin countries combined and still have room to spare.
That is to say, the time that Li Chen traveled through was too short, and there was not so much strategic time and space to plan. Otherwise, economic means alone could bring the Liao Kingdom back to the Stone Age.
But this will take more than ten years or even decades of planning. Li Chen cannot wait, and the Liao Kingdom will not give him this time and opportunity.
But no matter what, the Great Qin Empire, as a kingdom in the Celestial Empire, was completely unique in terms of economy and culture. The Liao and Jin Kingdoms did not say it with their mouths, but everyone knew how envious they were in their hearts.
Just look at the fact that before Huang Jitian was the thirteenth elder brother of the Jin Kingdom, he was considered to be prosperous and wealthy and did not worry about material enjoyment. However, even so, when he arrived in the capital, he still didn't care about gold, which can be seen.
Even though the Qin Empire has weakened over the years, the people are living in hardship, and the court is struggling to come up with extra money, its foundation is too solid and cannot be compared with the Liao and Jin.
What's more, the only ones who are poor are the common people and the court. Those nobles, officials, and clan clans are all fat and oily, and they have almost occupied most of the social resources. Li Chen just hasn't had the time to deal with them.
After returning to the capital, settling the conflicts within the court, and resolving the vassal kings, killing the rich and helping the poor, and redistributing a wave of social wealth and resources, the entire Qin Empire would return to its heyday two hundred years ago in an instant.
"Except for very few military restrictions, Great Qin's supplies can be traded to the Kingdom of Jin. The Qin court does not set restrictions or cards. On the basis of the principle of fair trade, it includes ironware, salt, silk, ceramics, etc.
Wait, all open the door to the Kingdom of Jin."
"And based on the principles of equality, mutual benefit, both sides can send officials and official offices to each other's country and set them up directly in the gambling city. For example, the Kingdom of Jin can send officials to the capital, and the court will allocate land to you and be responsible for building official residences.
If there is any contact between the two countries in the future, direct communication can be carried out through the dispatched officials."
"By drawing inferences from one example, the Great Qin Empire can also send officials to set up official residences in the capital of the Jin Kingdom. In this way, the Qin and Jin Dynasties were good in ancient times, and the Qin and Jin Dynasties are good in the present. This will not only allow the people of Great Qin to see the scenery of the Jin Kingdom, but also allow the people of the Jin Kingdom to appreciate the great Qin Dynasty.
Isn’t his style wonderful?”
If there are also people who have traveled through time here, it can be seen at a glance that what Li Chen is talking about is the organizational structure of the embassy, and the cooperation method is the economic and trade cooperation framework between two friendly countries.
For Li Chen, there is another important purpose, that is, this cooperation is the beginning of his economic control of the Kingdom of Jin.
With the products and resources of the Great Qin Empire, it is not easy to control the people's livelihood in the barren land of the Jin Kingdom.
It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
Once the Jin Kingdom tastes the benefits of trade with Da Qin, they can get whatever they want, and if they are asked to return to their current life of eating grass roots and chewing saltless bones, the people will be the first to refuse to agree.
