"Your Majesty, although Caomin came from a humble background, he has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and even dreamed of going to the battlefield to fight for our Great Qin. Please, Your Majesty, give Caomin a chance to prove himself!"

Han Xin assured Ying Zheng very sincerely.

"Okay, I will give you this opportunity. From now on, I will designate you as the Great General of the Qin Dynasty. When the order is issued, you will go to Shangjun and lead the army to crush the Xiongnu. Do you have confidence?"

"What? General!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Zhang Han was the first to react.

"Your Majesty, the Great General of the Qin Dynasty has a high position and authority. Han Xin has great abilities, but he has no merits at all. If His Majesty directly entrusts him with such a heavy responsibility, I am afraid that all the adults in the court will not accept it!"

At this time, Han Xin also reacted.

"The Caomin thanked His Majesty for his grace. His Majesty trusted the Caomin so much, and the Caomin had nothing to repay, so he brought the head of the Xiongnu Chanyu to His Majesty!"

"Okay, ambitious!"

Hearing Han Xin's promise, Ying Zheng applauded loudly!

"Meng Qing, draw up the decree. From today onwards, Han Xin will be my Great Qin General. If you can completely subdue the Xiongnu, I will make you the number one warrior of Great Qin!"

With a wave of Ying Zheng's hand, Meng Yi finished writing the imperial decree in a hurry, and the jade seal was placed on it. This matter is considered a final conclusion.

"Han Xin, I ask you, if you are asked to put down the Xiongnu, how many troops will be needed? How many supplies will be needed?"

"His Majesty, since the Huns are to be completely wiped out in one fell swoop, it is natural to have as many soldiers as possible. Han Xin is confident that he can command as many people as your Majesty can bring."

"Okay, Shangjun's 30 troops are at your disposal. I will make you the commander-in-chief, and Meng Tian will assist you as the deputy commander. In the shortest possible time, I will see the Xiongnu completely disappear in the northern border of our Great Qin!"

"Here!"

With a look of confidence and excitement on Han Xin's face, he finally realized his dream and had a chance to prove his ability.

"Go down!"

After Ying Zheng conveyed his will, he screened Han Xin and the others away.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Ji Suuaishi and General Xixing are asking to see you!"

As soon as Han Xin left, the servants turned around and came to report again, this time it was Zhao Shu and Wu Shiluo.

"Xuan!"

Ying Zheng gave an order, and after a while, the two of them walked in with the servant.

"Zhao Qing, Wu Shiluo, how are you preparing for the westward journey that I ordered you to prepare?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I came here this time to bid farewell to Your Majesty. The caravan of my servant has been assembled and can leave at any time!"

"Okay, what else do you need? Everyone can satisfy you!"

"Your Majesty, I only need a letter from Your Majesty. In this way, when I go to the countries in the Western Regions, I will let them understand that I am here on behalf of Your Majesty's will."

"Okay, my widow will write one for you!"

Ying Zheng nodded, picked up the brush himself, wrote a letter, then stamped his jade seal, and handed it to Wu Zhiluo.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, the servant is ready to go!"

Wu Zhiluo nodded, and bid farewell to Ying Zheng.

"Okay, the widow has already given orders, and Li You will bring an army to protect your caravan."

Li You is the eldest son of Li Si, and he also married the princess. As a son-in-law and a general of the Great Qin Dynasty, his status is quite high.

Even Ying Zheng sent him out, and it can be seen that he attaches great importance to the Silk Road.

"Zhao Qing, do you have something important to come to see the widow?"

After Wu Shiluo left, Ying Zheng asked Zhao Shu who was at the side again.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I do have some embarrassing things."

Zhao Shu said with a sad face.

"whats the matter?"

"Your Majesty, you have too many plans during this period. Whether it is going to conquer the Huns or building factories and private schools, the money you need is not a small amount. Even if we are supported by the Great Qin Bank now, we are still a bit stretched."

"Is there no money here?"

Ying Zheng frowned, and said with some displeasure.

"Your Majesty, this is the preliminary estimate of the cost of our preliminary plan, please read it!"

Zhao Shu took out a ledger from his pocket and presented it to Ying Zheng.

"Need so much money?"

Ying Zheng just took a cursory glance, and when he saw the final number, he couldn't help opening his mouth.

This figure, in the past, was simply beyond his imagination, and it was worth Daqin's taxes for many years.

"Is there no way to save a little?"

"Your Majesty, this is already the lowest budget. After all, we have too many things to do at the same time. Unless we temporarily put aside some expensive ones, and then wait for the factory to be built, we can earn more income."

"No, the matter of the private school must be implemented as soon as possible, otherwise the longer it takes, the worse it will be for us."

Ying Zheng shook his head. The popularization of private schools is necessary, and this move is bound to offend most of the scholars in the world.

It would be fine if it is implemented as soon as possible, but if it is delayed for a while, even if it is Ying Zheng, it will be difficult to bear such pressure when those scholars unite to resist.

"Your Majesty, why don't we go and see Young Master, it just so happens that today is the first day of the Lunar New Year!"

At this time, Meng Yi stood up and said something.

"Okay, then prepare the car and go to Jingshui!"

Ying Zheng agreed without hesitation.

Soon, a group of people arrived at Zhao Che's residence in a carriage.

"Sir, Happy New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai, I wish you good health and good luck!"

As soon as Ying Zheng arrived in Jingshui, he saw the children on the Zhuangzi laughing and playing from a distance, and their parents also gathered together in small groups. They didn't know what they were playing, and their faces were sometimes excited Sometimes sad.

"Xiao Niu, what are your father and the others doing?"

Ying Zheng also saw Maverick's father among those people, so he asked a question.

"They are frying golden flowers!"

"Fried golden flowers? What kind of flowers are golden flowers? Are you frying them with firecrackers?"

Ying Zheng scratched his head, never heard of this term.

"Oh, fried golden flower is a kind of poker game invented by Che Geer. It is very simple and fun."

"Playing cards? What is this?"

The more Ying Zheng listened, the more confused he became, so he simply brought Meng Yi and the others into the crowd.

"I'm against two!"

"Hey, I'm sorry, I'm a little older than you, I'm against three, this wins me!"

"Wait, what are you pairing, I have a four five six straight, I am the winner!"

……

Ying Zheng and the others came over just in time to see the end of a hand of cards.

Ying Zheng didn't understand a word of what they were talking about about pairing Zi Shunzi, but the winner took away all the money on the table, so he realized that it was a money game.
