Chapter 551: Factory and farm

These are all economic issues and they are very difficult to deal with. Because Shang Wen is not from an economics major. For economic issues, Shangwen can only rely on history, not the economy itself.

In desperation, Shang Wen and Meng Yi, who was working hard to solve the economic problem, discussed how to solve the current problem.

But Meng Yi pointed out some problems that Shangwen did not see.

With the influx of a large amount of new labor, the light industrial commodities produced in Qin's factories have already accumulated somewhat. But only accumulation. As the war between Qi State and Yan State unfolded, this situation eased somewhat.

In addition, according to Qin's security situation, there are many ethnic minorities around Qin, and Qin cannot blindly use force, which is very troublesome for diplomacy and intelligence. Feng Quji made such a request. His people's inability to enter these small countries, or to spy on intelligence within the nomads, is not only a language problem, but also more troublesome. The two sides have been in a state of hostility. The State of Qin can use force to destroy them. But a certain price must be paid, and dealing with these minorities will consume a large part of Qin's energy. The situation of Qin's garrison is already somewhat out of balance. Because a large number of armed forces are gathering on the border of Qin State.

Yao Jia put forward his own views. His view is to use the huge domestic productivity of Qin. Adopt a commodity foreign policy.

His idea is very simple. That is, with the rapid improvement of Qin's production capacity. Some factories in Qin State began to have a backlog of products. He believed that these products could be sold to these minorities, and these minorities could use the various resources in their hands to exchange them. If not, war can be used.

Shang Wen synthesizes various feedback questions. These questions are too tricky.

Shangwen had to explain the situation of capital export. This is not just a judicial and technical issue. Exporting equipment is a serious violation of the law.

Meng Yi also felt that the matter was a bit serious. The more serious ones are in the back. Qin's country will definitely experience a crisis in a certain local industry for the first time. Mainly light industry.

Shangwen used his scientific thinking to clarify this relationship temporarily. But after sorting out, he found a major problem.

The first is Qin's domestic light industry production. With the influx of labor, Qin can produce a large number of leather shoes, leather bags, wool and linen blended fabrics, which are good materials for making clothes. At the same time, wool is also one of the important raw materials for a large number of blankets. There are a large number of sheep in the north. They are no longer the supply of meat, but the main source of supply of wool. This time happens to be winter, and people’s needs have accelerated this figure. Major manufacturers are frantically processing these things.

But some other things are burying some hidden dangers for Qin State. For example, capital export. Some of Qin’s capital has already begun to be restrained. It is not appropriate to say this. It should be said that Qin has developed to this point. The emergence of a large number of small and medium-sized enterprises makes them eager to release the capital in their hands to find the easiest A profitable industry. The favorable conditions for South Korea are there. Capital is also willing to go, but Qin State does not want to see it appear so soon.

The problem is not over here. Although a factory is established, it takes a certain amount of time to produce and produce goods. But the emergence of these factories is enough to trigger a crisis in the production of these light industries in Qin.

When these factories appeared, the price was first of all cheap. Then they will quickly seize the original market of Qin State, the two major markets of Qi State and Chu State. This is a big test for Qin.

But there is also some good news. As the situation in Zhao, South Korea, and Yan improves, they are actively engaged in trade with Qin. People have some money in their hands, and they have certain purchasing power for these products. This is the power of emerging markets.

Thought of this. Shang Wen believes that the export of capital should be shifted in one direction. Instead of temporarily moving to South Korea, it is better to move these light industries of Qin to the north and west first. There, Qin State opened up a new market, but when the market was large enough, it could feed the power of these domestic factory owners.

But then a new problem arose. And this issue is probably a big thrust for the abolition of the slave trade.

If the State of Qin builds these factories to the west and north, there will be some favorable conditions in the region, where there are a lot of leather raw materials. But there is one biggest disadvantage. market. Qin State has no market at all.

The impetus for the foreign war was actually very simple, grabbing slaves and looting large amounts of property. This is the driving force of Qin's primitive capital accumulation. Especially now that gold is discovered in the west. Qin's enterprises have already begun to invest heavily in the west.

It can be said that the west and the north cannot be stable. Only war can accelerate Qin's primitive accumulation of capital. Especially the slave trade issue. Many people get rich because of the slave trade. Moreover, the farmers are not allowed to abolish the slave trade. There are a large number of slaves in their fields to help them work. If they lost the slave trade, it would be hard for them to imagine what would happen to their farms and pastures.

But what the factory owners mean is, stability, Qin State needs a stable condition to sell their products. They need local people to have the purchasing power to buy their goods so that they can make money to expand production and sales of goods and then expand production.

However, there is obviously no such situation in the western and northern problems. Even if it is to induce capital to be exported to the west and the north without market attractiveness, these factories will still be pulled to South Korea.

The State of Qin needs a complete and independent industrial system, rather than a single industrial system. This is vital to future development and is one of the important reasons why Qin can complete its reunification.

If you really want to move these factories, then you have to end the current foreign warfare situation and actively develop a certain peaceful trade strategy. However, if the problem is handled in this way, it becomes even more difficult. There are wars on the periphery of the situation, except in the south. Qin State almost beat all the neighbors' ethnic minorities all over. I'm afraid some have already made a deadlock. At this time, I am afraid that a peaceful trade strategy will be launched. Shang Wen thought about it and shook his head. is it possible? impossible. Shang Wen believes that there is no possibility of even 0.1%. You hit someone, but at this time you want to do business with someone else.

However, Shangwen still wrote down this seemingly stupid idea. He needs to see how much diplomacy and military efforts can be made.
