The state buys surplus grain at parity in good years, and sells it at parity in famine years, at parity in grain prices; It is advisable to sow a variety of food crops at the same time to prevent famine.

Politically, the rule of law was implemented, the Shiqing Shilu system that upheld the privileges of the nobility was abolished, and those who made meritorious contributions to the country were rewarded, making Wei a powerful country in the early Warring States period. He collected the laws of various countries at that time to compile the "Book of Laws", the first lack of which was the first relatively complete legal code in ancient China, which has now been lost.

Shang Ying was a patriot of the Spring and Autumn Period, and he was well versed in the ideas of Legalism and Soldiering, so he not only valued the law, but also valued the army. Shang Ying emphasized that the purpose of political reform was to achieve military success, and to this end, Shang Yang encouraged foreign wars and the glory of military merit, and issued a decree to reward military merit when the law was changed. The famous one is the Shang Martingale Reform.

Han Fei was a representative figure of Legalism at the end of the Warring States Period, and he advocated using the law as a teaching, which meant that in addition to formulating laws, the former Qing Dynasty must also publicize the law, popularize legal knowledge, let the broad masses of the people abide by the law, apply the law, and form a good atmosphere of "knowing the law, understanding the law, and abiding by the law" in the whole society.

Li Si was the prime minister of the Qin state, and he advocated the legalist idea of the rule of law, in order to maintain the feudal imperial system, cater to the authoritarian idea of Qin Shi Huang, and maintain the rule. He is the most complete executor of Legalism.

Legalism, one of the hundred schools of thought, is an important school in Chinese history that advocates the rule of law as the core idea of the Confessional Mountain, and takes enriching the country and strengthening the army as its own responsibility.

Legalism is not a pure theoretician, but a doer who actively joins the WTO, and its thinking is also focused on the practical utility of law. Legalism includes many aspects such as ethical thought, social development thought, political thought, and rule of law thought. Legalist ethical thought refers to the concept of integrity and the concept of righteousness and benefit based on the concept of human nature.
