Daqin started with offering immortal medicine

This made these merchants very anxious. There were 12 rich merchants in Xianyang City, so they went to the Ba family one after another, asking Ba Shi to discuss the matter with Li Yang, hoping to be taken care of.

Because the person who came to the door was Ba Shi, Li Yang could refuse anyone, but he couldn't refuse Ba Shi from the door, so he bit the bullet and met with this group of businessmen.

"On behalf of the 12 merchants in Xianyang, I will meet the dean!"

When several businessmen came to Li Yang's meeting room, they cupped their hands and bowed deeply.

These businessmen, including Ba Shi, consisted of five people.But these five people are all the richest top businessmen in Xianyang City, or Daqin.

At the same time, these five people were also merchants who actively participated in the bidding before to help the disaster.

"You are welcome!"

Li Yang greeted them with a smile, stretched out his hand to signal everyone to sit down, and at the same time said straight to the point: "You are looking for this courtyard today, I am afraid it is because of the land reform?"

Everyone nodded and mourned in unison: "Dean, I have fully supported your new bidding policy at the beginning, and have always followed your lead. However, the new land reform policy introduced by the dean now has killed me and other businessmen. I hope the dean will be merciful and give me and other merchants a way to survive."

………………

PS: I will continue to code tonight and ask for a monthly pass.

Chapter 191 Talking About Business

Li Yang was also very helpless when he saw how miserable the businessmen in front of him were.

These few people, not to mention the relationship between Ba Shi and himself, are the other people, who were also the ones who fully responded to the new bidding policy, so it is not good to be too tough on them.

How about driving them out?Obviously too ruthless.

But just because they cried and complained, they sympathized with them and promised to keep the land they annexed in the past?Or take care and only charge half?Then this Land Reform New Deal is definitely going to be completely cool.

Therefore, Li Yang was in trouble for a while.

Land reform is related to the livelihood of the people in the world, the great Qin State, and the foundation of whether he can gain a foothold in the imperial court. Therefore, Li Yang knows very well that it is impossible to retreat.

Since you can't sympathize with them, then...

Li Yang's complexion changed altogether, with an angry look on his face, and he said angrily: "You bastards! You are really wolf-hearted, your kindness is not rewarded, where is your conscience? Have you let the dog get away with it!"

"..." Several businessmen were dumbfounded!

what's going on?

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you. For a moment, I couldn't understand why Li Yang scolded himself and others so much.

Ba Shi also had a confused expression on his face, completely not understanding what Li Yang meant by cursing.

Li Yang saw that everyone was stunned by the scolding, so he continued to curse: "It's a shame that you are still businessmen, so short-sighted, this court is dedicated to the future welfare of you and other businessmen, and you actually cried to me, blame this court for not doing this. Land Reform and New Deal, you...you are going to kill this court with anger!"

This time, everyone was even more confused.

Everyone originally came to complain to him about their grievances, and wanted to say that he had no conscience, so why are they being scolded by him now that he and others have no conscience?

Is this... a mistake?

Everyone looked at Ba Shi, wanting him to speak.Because Bashi hasn't said a word yet.

At this time, Ba Shi was also scolded by this group of heads covering his face, and he was a little confused. Seeing the eyes of everyone looking at him, he had no choice but to ask: "Dean, what are you... Get a little confused."

Li Yang sighed, withdrew his previous annoyed expression, and said to Ba Shi: "Brother Ba, I won't say much about your relationship with me. I have already regarded you as my own. To be honest, land reform is impossible for the whole country. I'm partial to anyone. I don't allow any of the officials below to be partial, let alone my own. This... Brother Brother, can you understand?"

Ba Shi nodded. In fact, he knew that the land reform would make it impossible for Li Yang to show mercy to them. He just thought that his own land would be confiscated if the court said it would be confiscated. He was still very anxious and desperate, so That's why he came to Li Yang, after all, he was looking forward to a glimmer of hope.

Now, upon hearing Li Yang's words, he also knew that there was no way to keep the land.

However, although he understood that Li Yang would not undermine the land reform policy, he was curious, what do you mean by calling us all heartless?

Just as he was about to inquire about this matter, he heard Li Yang continue: "Land reform is unstoppable, not to mention your businessmen, even princes and nobles, he can't stop it. Moreover, I can also reveal to you that after the imperial court takes over the land , the actual contracting system will be implemented, the land will be distributed equally according to each household, and the contract will be implemented. People in the world only have the right to use, but not ownership. In this way, have you ever thought that even if you hold the land, the land cannot be bought and sold. It depends on farming. Can you get rich?"

"This……"

All of a sudden, Ba Shi and the other four businessmen were taken aback by Li Yang's question.

Yes, the land is owned by the imperial court, which means that even if you occupy the land, you are only contracting him to farm, and it is really difficult to make a fortune selling grain.

Seeing that he was confused by everyone's question, Li Yang also breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "The project you have undertaken this time, after one year of work, I am afraid that the profit will be countless times that of farming and selling grain?"

Everyone nodded. Although the project bidding price was extremely low, there was still some profit.

And this profit is naturally countless times greater than selling grain.

Li Yang said again: "In the future, the common people will have their own farms, and the problem of food and clothing will be solved. What will be the future of Great Qin?"

Everyone was dumbfounded again, booing each other.

A businessman asked: "I hope the dean will express it."

Li Yang smiled proudly and said, "Commercial society!"

"Commercial society?"

When everyone heard these four words, they immediately exclaimed and their eyes widened.

Li Yang nodded: "That's right, the problem of food and clothing has been solved. In the future, what the dean will do is to develop commerce, and the emperor is also determined to build a prosperous and powerful Qin State. And if a country wants to prosper, what does it need to rely on? Nothing more than two One word: business!"

This time, everyone was excited.

Ba Shi also blushed, and said: "The dean means that...in the future, my Daqin will be a business-oriented country?"

Everyone also looked at Li Yang nervously.

Li Yang nodded slightly, with a look of pointing the country, and said with a smile: "When the food and clothing are solved, the people will have money, and when there is food, they will have the yearning for a better life, and the pursuit of a better life, although it is a kind of Spiritual satisfaction, but spiritual satisfaction is actually obtained through material level satisfaction. Therefore, there are needs for clothing, food, housing, and transportation. You are businessmen, and you should understand that if there is demand, there is a market. Reasonably, a commercial society will surely be created in the future.”

Everyone is a businessman, or a top businessman, so it is natural to understand what Li Yang said.

When people have enough food and clothing and have surplus food, they will think about eating better, dressing better, living better, and using everything better.In this way, is the Ba family's restaurant business going well?Is wine in high demand?Is the cloth business going well...

It can be said that all aspects are alive at once, but who is the person who can satisfy everyone's material needs?Isn't it just businessmen like myself?

Thinking of this, several people's eyes lit up.

At this time, Li Yang also knew that they had understood it, so he concluded: "Producing goods can earn all the money and food of the people in the world. Just ask, how can those mere pieces of land that belong to the imperial court and not belong to you at all be worth it?" What are you worried about? What's more, when you really want land, you can contract it from the imperial court."

Everyone nodded thoughtfully, because if it was really like the prospect Li Yang described, farming was indeed not as good as trading.

Li Yang seemed to think of something again, and said: "The most important point, don't you want to improve your status?"

This time, the five people became even more excited. What they want most is identity and status, which is beyond their reach.Hearing Li Yang's words at this time, how can there be any reason not to be excited?So they asked anxiously: "The dean is willing to improve the status of our businessmen?"
