Daqin: I Want to Be a Powerful Minister, but the First Emperor Actually Passed The Throne to Me

White clouds drifted slowly on the blue sky screen, the road covered with weeds was muddy loess, and sometimes one or two green mantises jumped out of the grass.

The wheel of the chariot that drove past quickly crushed the mantis into powder, and on the bumpy carriage sat Zhao Yu and the three giants of Daqin.

From Xianyang to Nanyang County, it would take at least a day, and the carriage was bumpy for a long time, and even Zhao Yu could not bear it.

In Zhao Yu of Qin Dynasty, although he couldn't play with his mobile phone or computer, he couldn't use wifi, and he had a maid massage when he was tired.

The two beautiful wives at home also make Zhao Yu miss him.

The only thing that was more difficult was the traffic in Daqin, which was really hard for Zhao Yu to accept.

This f*ck goes to a random place, it takes days to travel long distances, to a farther place.

It takes several days to ride a carriage, but if you ride a war horse, the speed can be much faster.

But because of the terrain, the long-distance bumpy, this taste is really uncomfortable!

On the way of the carriage, Zhao Yu was also thinking about how to change the current traffic situation in the Qin Dynasty.

A day passed.

Zhao Yu and Qin Shihuang finally came to the 19th belt of Nanyang County.

There is a village here called Yushan Village.

There was an old man in the village named Bing Yang.

Bingyang has a granddaughter who is sitting at an old wooden table at home, writing and drawing with a pen.

Bingyang was illiterate, and her granddaughter did not know what to write. She only knew that this was a few simple scriptures that her granddaughter had learned from experts in legal popularization.

As usual, Bingyang picked up a basket of manure with a hoe, ready to fertilize Xiangrui.

The feces exuded a stench, and drifted to another mountain with the wind!

When Bingyang came to the courtyard with a lot of dung, he saw a few men dressed in ordinary clothes, and the two of them looked alike, staring at a few pigs and sheep in his fence and whispering.

Bing Yang's face immediately became serious, he took several large steps to the front of Qin Shihuang and Zhao Yu, and said: "What are you doing? Daqin law stipulates that you can't arbitrarily break into other people's courtyards, you broke into mine. Courtyard, still staring at the livestock I raise, what do you want?"5

Bing Yang put the dung water on the ground, took down a dung ladle, scooped up a bowl of dung water, and said sternly: "Although I am old, but I have strength, if you dare to attack my livestock, I will The dung water will be poured on your face immediately! 9

Hearing this, Qin Shi Huang smiled. As an ancient person, no one knew more about the importance that the people put on food than him.

The old Qin people experienced catastrophes and disasters. Although Qin Shihuang stipulated that one household could plant 100 acres a year, the old Qin people could survive a year apart from paying taxes.

It's just that there is not much surplus grain left in such a year. Once there is a famine, I don't know how many people will starve to death!

Therefore, the ancients were very stubborn about food. Seeing the old man's angry appearance, he even raised the stinky dung ladle, and Zheng Ge didn't have much resentment.

After a pause, Qin Shihuang explained in a deep voice: "We are merchants from Nanyang County, and we came here to inspect, to see if there is anything to buy, and to prepare a batch of goods to sell in Xianyang.

As soon as he heard Qin Shihuang explain that he was a businessman, the old man immediately became energetic, put down the dung, and his expression became more respectful and polite.

"I don't know everyone, do you have a testimonial?" Bing Yang asked with a smile.

Beside him, Yin Xu took out the test pass that had been prepared for a long time.

As the Emperor of Qin Dynasty, Brother Zheng wanted to make a few biographies, that is, a matter of one sentence.

After confirming the identities of several strangers in front of him, and then feeling the other's temperament, either rich or expensive, Bing Yang completely believed that the other party was a businessman.

When he learned that the other party was a businessman, Bingyang's attitude was much better, and he quickly greeted: "It turned out to be a businessman from Nanyang, just now the old man has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and bumped into everyone, I hope you will forgive me.

Qin Shihuang waved his hand and said, "You're welcome."

Feeling that Bingyang respected the merchants so much, Qin Shihuang was a little confused, so he asked: "Why do you have such respect for the merchants? 99

Zhao Yu, who was on the side, smiled and said nothing when he saw this, everything was within his expectations.

Bingyang was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "You must be a businessman who first entered Nanyang, right?"

"All of this is the credit of Lord Emperor. Lord Emperor has elevated the status of merchants and made them respected by the people just like our farmers. Therefore, almost all the merchants in Daqin went to Nanyang County. 55 Bingyang explained.

"And while the emperor introduced merchants, he continued to consolidate and improve the rights and status of our common people, and established a department of commerce in Nanyang County to govern the affairs of the department of commerce. 35

"Businessmen produce things and cannot buy slaves. Slaves are completely abolished in Nanyang County, and workers must be recruited, and the basic salary is one person per day. You know, one dollar can buy three buckets of rice!"

"How many people in Nanyang County can make a living by working for these merchants. If there is a problem, you can go to the Commerce Department of Nanyang County to complain. The emperor is unselfish and fair for the people. Anyone who has grievances can appeal. ." Bing Yang explained in detail as he walked.

Hearing this, Qin Shihuang suddenly realized.

It turns out that Bingyang respects businessmen because businessmen can lead them a new life!

"Master Emperor is really a good man!" Qin Shihuang looked at Zhao Yu rarely, and said with a half-smile.

When Bingyang heard this, he continued: "That's not it, not only that, the goods transported by the merchants can also be sold to our common people, for example, the Erguotou treasured in the old man's house, the money for selling pigs last year came from the merchants. What we bought, and other goods we need, used to take a few days to buy, but now we only need to buy it from the merchants."

"The few livestock you saw, the old man was going to sell it to buy dozens of jars of Erguotou, so I was a little excited. Please don't blame me, the old man will take a sip of wine. 35 Bingyang continued. explained.

"Grandpa, who's here? 953" At this moment, Bing Yang's granddaughter came out of the house and suddenly saw Qin Shihuang, Zhao Yu, Wang Jian, Meng Yi and other strangers, and hid back in the house a little shy.

Looking at the appearance of the girl in the house, Qin Shihuang estimated the girl's age, how come she is seventeen years old this year, but she is still waiting to marry.

Qin Shi Huang was a little curious, looked at Bing Yang and asked: "Isn't my Da Qin married at sixteen? Look at your granddaughter, she is probably going to be eighteen years old, why is she still not married?

Hearing this, Bingyang immediately put on a gloomy face and scolded Qin Shihuang: "Are you an animal? The emperor said that if a woman gives birth to a child before the age of eighteen, it is a waste of her body, and 60% of the people live. If you give birth to a child after the age of 18, the probability of mother and child being safe and sound reaches 70%! It is a miracle! 35

"Furthermore, the Master Emperor has regulations in my Nanyang County. As long as the common people of Nanyang County get married and have children before the age of 18, they will be fined 50 yuan for one year in advance, and after the age of 18, they will be rewarded with 100 yuan for each year of delay in having children. , the old man is still waiting for my granddaughter to marry when she is 20 years old, and then you can go to the government to ask for a reward of two hundred pennies! Bing Yang said this, his white beard shook, his face full of happiness of longing.

Qin Shihuang, Wang Jian, and Meng Yi were all stunned for a moment. This kind of longing for happiness had never appeared before!

Hearing this, Zhao Yu looked at Qin Shihuang and joked: "Old Zhao, you don't even know this, are you worthy of coming to Nanyang County?"
