91: Chapter 91 Zhao Fusu's astonishingly long-term plan!

At the banquet in Xianyang Palace, the nobles who came to attend included the royal relatives of the Ying Clan, and the clans of Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang.

These nobles intermarried with each other, creating a web of kinship where everyone was related.

For example, all of Li Si's sons married Qin Shi Huang's princesses, and all of Li Si's daughters married Qin Shi Huang's princes.

As for the claim that the First Emperor's daughter had a relationship with Gao Jianli, it is likely false.

The North Palace of the Great Qin Empire was so large that it was no smaller than the main urban area of a city, with guards stationed on the periphery, making it impossible for outsiders to enter. As for Gao Jianli's assassination attempt on the First Emperor, the First Emperor had long since killed him off.

General Wang Jian's granddaughter, Wang Xia, also married Fusu.

Other nobles also intermarried with one another.

Together, they formed the state of Qin.

It was just like a joint-stock company.

The royal family held a 51% stake, while the other families held 49%.

They did not develop the world together; rather, they exploited the common people of the entire world together.

They were in a relationship where they would all suffer or prosper together.

After Hu Hai took power, he exterminated the Li, Feng, and Meng Clans, and even the Ying royal family he belonged to was mostly slaughtered by him.

Hu Hai's foolish behavior was equivalent to cutting off the foundations of Qin, leading to a rapid decline in the country's strength.

Originally, under the command of Meng Tian, the Great Wall Legion could make the Xiongnu people howl in pain.

After the Great Wall Legion fell into the hands of Wang Li, it did not perform remarkably well during Qin's suppression of the rebellion and was eventually wiped out by Xiang Yu.

To the point that many people believed the Great Wall Legion did not return to participate in the defense of Qin.

After Zhao Fusu took power, although he proposed a constitutional monarchy, formed a parliament, and established a Representative Assembly.

But in terms of governance, only the emperor's power was restricted; the community of interests remained the Ying, Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans.

The political system of Qin was still the Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans led by the Ying Clan.

The highest power of Qin, the Collective Representative Assembly, was a meeting of representatives from the Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans.

Therefore, today's Qin is an aristocratic group headed by the Ying Clan, where the common people are merely means of production, excluded from the cake of interests.

As a person from later generations, Zhao Fusu had liked studying and was well-versed in history since childhood; he knew clearly that if one treats the entire world as their own property, they will eventually be crushed by the people of the world who cannot get a share of the cake.

The last Han person to have this idea was Zhu Yuanzhang.

He did not allow his descendants to engage in production, treating the people of the world as means of production and sucking their blood.

Millions of members of the Zhu royal family did not have to work; their marriages, children, and housing were all paid for with the blood and sweat squeezed from the people of the world.

After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the fate of these people was truly tragic; they were hunted for a full twenty years, and the number of victims likely far exceeded one million.

Zhao Fusu was very restrained.

He knew well that if he indulged in supreme power and enjoyed himself for a few decades, he would be accumulating hatred for his descendants and making them suffer the karmic retribution.

The more descendants he had, the more of them would suffer that retribution.

To prevent his descendants from being hunted by the people of the world for over twenty years, he had to let the people share in the cake of interests provided by Great Qin.

To change the status of the common people at the bottom, it is definitely not enough to just shout a slogan of equality for all.

If a father is a district chief, and a child writes an essay titled "My District Chief Father," praising his father's merits throughout, if the teacher doesn't give it a high score and the principal doesn't publicly commend it, then the teacher and principal clearly don't want to advance their careers.

The improvement of the status of the common people in Great Qin is definitely not achieved by shouting, but by the common people standing up.

For the common people of Great Qin to stand up, the chimneys on the land of Great Qin must spring up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

When the chimneys stand tall, it means the common people of Great Qin have stood up.

In fact, not just the common people of Great Qin, but all the common people across the globe.

When the chimneys stand tall, it means all the people at the bottom of humanity have stood up and can live with dignity as human beings!

Working in factories, doing 996.

In modern society, 996 is called a "blessing," which is a joke.

But in the Qin Dynasty, being able to achieve 996 was a true blessing.

One would have to sing praises of the general's benevolence.

Only when the common people stand up will they have status.

By working in factories, they no longer worry about food and clothing and begin to save money.

After decades of working, some people save money in factories and complete their primitive accumulation of capital.

They begin to invest in building factories and become entrepreneurs.

They can provide more jobs for society, allowing more common people to live lives without worrying about food and clothing.

The status of the common people is further improved.

Workers have power.

This is not just a casual saying; as soon as they go on strike, entrepreneurs panic.

Under market competition, if internal conflicts arise within an enterprise and affect production, their market share will be snatched away by other entrepreneurs.

Under pressure from workers, entrepreneurs are forced to yield profits.

Entrepreneurs often possess immense social wealth, and they will become targets for the Ying, Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans to win over.

Through marriage, they deepen their relationships with one another.

These entrepreneurs gradually squeeze into the Collective Representative Assembly, becoming a new force alongside the Ying, Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans.

Over time, more and more entrepreneurs rise, and more and more new elites join the cake of interests.

At this point, by setting rules.

These new elites can share in the cake of interests; the Ying Clan no longer holds a 51% stake, and the Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans no longer hold a 49% stake.

However, those who enter the scene to share the cake do not have the power to govern the country; they only have the right to propose.

That is, merchants cannot hold administrative power!

The power of the state remains in the hands of the Ying, Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans.

As time continues to pass and the education level of the common people keeps rising, they will enter the government as officials, constantly challenging the power of the Ying, Li, Wang, Feng, Meng, Sima, and Zhang Clans.

What Zhao Fusu needs to do is educate the people, especially those who intend to become officials.

He makes it so that if they want to be officials, they must join the Huaxia Party.

Only by joining the Huaxia Party can one become an official.

If they want to be officials, they must follow the rules of the Huaxia Party, which are that officials cannot engage in business, and once they become officials, they must work for the people and serve the people.

In the long run, this will achieve regional autonomy based on the principle that the world belongs to the public.

Zhao Fusu is an extremely patient person who is skilled at planning.

This will be an incredibly long-term strategy that he will do his best to implement, lasting for decades, centuries, or even spanning across time and space for two thousand years!

If anyone were to find out, it would be absolutely shocking and making one's scalp tingle!
