And what is different this time from last time is that Li Si’s remarks are correct according to Qin’s orthodox principles.

The reason why the people of the world hate the First Emperor and the reason why the six kingdoms are in turmoil is because they know too much.

For example, if the State of Zhao remembers being buried alive in the Battle of Changping and remembering the saying "Zhao people will never surrender to Qin" in the Battle of Handan, how can they have a favorable impression of the State of Qin?

How to solve it?

Wouldn't it be better if they couldn't remember it?

Burn all the books so they won't remember them.

Don’t rely on words, don’t rely on books.

How long can you remember something by just relying on your memory?

And this is the fundamental reason why Qin is so powerful.

This is the policy of Qin's farming and warfare.

This is also an important idea in Shang Jun's book.

Why are most of the people in Qin’s court filled with outsiders? Because Qin doesn’t allow teaching at all.

The game of Qin is to farm, fight, farm, and fight.

What's the point of teaching? What's the purpose of making these people literate? If they are literate and understand things, won't they have ideas? Then won't they stop listening to the court? Then won't they be less easy to control?

So what should we do when implementing the policies of the imperial court? We can’t all be led by reckless men, right? Even if all the Qin kings are kings, a king who is tired to death can’t defeat the smart people in the world, right?

It's simple.

Recruiting talents.

If I don’t cultivate talents, why don’t I just poach talents from other countries?

Come, come, come, our Qin country is thirsty for talents.

As long as you come to my country of Qin, I will give you whatever you want in terms of house, land, women, dignity.

I, Qin, can give you what the six countries can give you, and I, Qin, can still give you what the six countries cannot give!

The more talents you gather, the more you gather, but they are only for one generation, because the Qin State itself has no soil for the birth of talents, and the Qin State will not allow you to teach.

Your reputation is yours, I can give you a house, land, or women, but remember one thing, don't play with me like a school, I don't need you to cultivate talents for me.

This resulted in the fact that South Korea had the Zhang family as prime minister for five generations, but what about the prime ministers or prime ministers of the Qin State? Not to mention they came from the same family, or even from the same family.

Shang Yang, Fan Ju, Zhang Yi, and Lu Buwei couldn't even hit the eight poles together.

There is no soil for talents to be born. Qin's high salary has always been there and has never been saturated. Therefore, talents from all over the world have fled to Qin generation after generation.

Then don't think that people in this era will be restrained by ideas such as national honor and disgrace.

Because what era was the Warring States Period? Before Lu Buwei conquered the Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were essentially the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

The whole world respects Zhou.

In fact, it can be said that all people in the world are Zhou people.

This is probably what the discussion means. The original intention of the feudal system was not to split the country.

In the eyes of the literati at that time, cross-border service was equivalent to cross-provincial work, so there was nothing strange about it.

When Ying Zichu decided to destroy Zhou, it was when he thought Qin could swallow up the world.

The Qin State implemented such a policy, developing its own weapons, poaching wisdom from other countries, and then destroying all other countries.

Of course, there are also disadvantages.

The disadvantage is that there are not enough officials to control the territory.

If Qin had a systematic talent training plan, it would be enough to directly transfer talents and place them in the cities it conquered, but he did not.

Generation after generation, his ministers poached.

The normal solution is to divide it up and let everyone manage it together.
