In Qin Dynasty, the hero of the bright moon dominates the world

Chapter 463
Under the witness of the remaining nobles in the Yuezhi royal city, Alia ascended the Yuezhi throne.

In Yuezhi Palace, Alia brought Qiu Biju to discuss with Zhao Shuang about rewards and management.

Yuezhi has a vast territory, extending westward to the Western Regions and eastward to the border of Qin State.

However, as the three great Xihous of the Yuezhi became rebels and their subordinates became slaves, a huge power vacuum appeared in the Yuezhi.

"My lord, there are more than [-] slaves and a large amount of unowned land in the entire Yue clan."

Qiubiju is like a housekeeper, sorting out the current national conditions in Yuezhi.The messy situation gave Qiu Biju a headache.

The Yuezhi Royal City has restored order, but the next problem is still serious.

"It's simple."

Qiu Biju looked at Aaliyah with some differences, but saw her looking at Zhao Shuang.

"All the land and slaves, my lord and I will have a [-]-[-] split. The land in the east belongs to the lord, and the land in the west belongs to the royal family. The lord can use these to reward his subordinates."

Qiu Biju opened his eyes wide, unexpectedly, Alia gave away half of the land as soon as she opened her mouth.

"In addition, Leonard's property and the spoils left in the west will be given to the king."

Zhao Shuang turned his head and looked at Aaliyah.There was light in her eyes, as if she was expecting something.

"But let's talk about slaves, how do you pass the law in so many countries?"

Qiu Biju's words carried a bit of embarrassment.After all, the laws of the Yuezhi Royal City are a place that cannot be forgiven.

Aaliyah seemed to have been waiting for this sentence, and soon thought of a way to deal with it.

"As long as the king is named Daxihou, it will be fine."

Zhao Shuang was taken aback.Alia wanted to make him her own, but this made Zhao Shuang a little embarrassed.After all, he is now the feudal lord of the state of Qin, and if he receives the title of the Yue family again, there will definitely be an uproar.

"This move needs to be done with caution."

After hearing this, Aaliyah was obviously a little disappointed.Seeing it, Qiu Biju seemed to think of something.

"The king can be appointed as the king's deputy, that is, the auxiliary king. This is neither an official position nor a title. It is just a symbol, but in the law, land and slaves can be granted."

After hearing this, Aaliyah immediately regained her spirits.

"Your Majesty, how are you?"

Zhao Shuang's mind is not on it for the time being.The Yuezhi royal family and the three major Xihou, together with their loyal deployment and more than [-] cavalry, were completely lost in the incident.

Although Wangcheng has returned to Aaliyah's hands now.But then, without the [-] troops guarding the border, and without the nobles in the Yuezhi city to maintain the system, the crisis facing the Yuezhi is no less than before.

A host of governance issues coupled with a security crisis, if not resolved, will flood the country with chaos.It is almost impossible for Zhao Shuang to continue to maintain business.

Zhao Shuang's purpose is to continue to maintain and expand the profits of the business.However, it is obviously uneconomical to directly manage this piece of land, which would require paying huge management costs.

Obtaining the land and population in the east is already the limit of management for Zhao Shuang.No matter how many, with his current talent pool and the number of troops, it is not enough to cope.

In fact, even now, it is already difficult to deal with.

"In that case, I would like to thank the queen."

Seeing that Zhao Shuang accepted it, Qiu Biju breathed a sigh of relief.The Habayashi Army has strict military discipline, and after capturing the royal city, Qiu did not commit any crimes.But Qiubi was worried in his heart after all.

Zhao Shuang's acceptance of these lands, wealth and slaves meant that he would no longer covet other things.

"Your Majesty, the Yuezhi Royal City currently lacks enough officials to govern the people. Moreover, the national strength has been greatly damaged, and the poor and the poor are starving. How should we deal with it?"

Qiu Biju understood that without Zhao Shuang's help, it would be almost impossible to stabilize the situation.

"I have a suggestion, I wonder if the queen can consider it?"

"Please tell me, Your Majesty."

"I have sent people to inspect these few days, and I roughly calculated that there are millions of acres of land around the Yuezhi royal city, which can be cultivated. However, the people of the Yuezhi are still mostly nomads, and there are few farmers. Now that the Yuezhi is in chaos, the national power is affected. In order to restore strength as soon as possible, we can reclaim the land with the farming techniques of the people of the Yuezhi."

Alia thought for a while, most of the people of the Yuezhi lived on grazing, and rarely cultivated.But now she has more than [-] slaves under her command, and labor is not a problem.

"However, there are very few people in the Yuezhi who know how to farm?"

"I have some incompetent people under my command, who are proficient in some water conservancy and farming techniques. I can teach them to join the Yuezhi and teach the people of the Yuezhi how to cultivate. I can also send people to the royal city to temporarily deal with the management crisis of the royal city."

"Then thank you, Lord. But, how to pay the salaries of these people?"

Aaliyah's eyes widened.Even though she is not deeply involved in the world, she also knows that hiring people requires money.

"That's what I'm going to talk about next." Zhao Shuang smiled, "The Yueshi King City is a passageway between east and west, and business is booming. Because of the war, many facilities in the city were destroyed, and a new city square can be built in the south of the city. , for East-West merchants to trade. I sent people to manage this market, and the tax revenue from the transaction was used to pay the salaries of my subordinates."

As an important commercial node, the Yuezhi King City is a place for transactions and replenishment.Qiu Biju glanced at Zhao Shuang, and he expected that the other party wanted to control the commercial tax of Wangcheng.

However, compared to the tax revenue of the entire Yuezhi Royal City, this part is not much.Importantly, security issues.

"Your Majesty, there is a lack of military strength in all the territories of the Yuezhi. Wusun was defeated and a surrender agreement was made before, but after hearing about the current situation, maybe he will have a different idea. Even the Qiang people around and even the Xiongnu in the distance will know Hearing the news, it has invaded our country's borders."

"The enemies of the Yuezhi are just Wusun in the west and the Xiongnu in the east. I heard about Wusun from Leonard's men. They were defeated by the Yuezhi army, so they probably won't attack here for the time being. Now, if the disbanded troops of the various Xihous in the Yuezhi country are regrouped and recruited again, how can they collect [-] to [-] cavalry to guard the royal city and the Western Regions? There is no problem for the time being. After a long time, the national strength will be restored, The army can be rearranged."

Saying that, Zhao Shuang smiled.

"The land to the east is under my jurisdiction. If the Huns come, I will have to face it. The queen doesn't have to worry."

Seeing that Zhao Shuang had contracted the most troublesome problem, Qiubi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty said so, I am at ease."

After all the messy things were dealt with for the time being, Alia showed a smile on her face and wanted to show off her cooking skills, which made Zhao Shuang's face change in fright.

"Your Majesty, you can have dinner in the palace, I have learned several new dishes."

"I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I can't do it, next time."

With that said, Zhao Shuang stood up and left in a hurry.
