Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!
Chapter 93: Stabilize the southern border and start planning for Emperor Qin!
However, the military power in the southern border is not in Gao Yao's hands now, but still in Zhao Tuo's hands. Therefore, how to seize this military power has become the top priority. Now the entire Nanhai County has been completely transformed, and the Guilin County is being gradually transformed.
This time, both the economic and human investment have been greatly reduced. One of the important reasons for this is the benchmark effect of Nanhai County.
Under Gao Yao's arrangement, the living index of the people in Nanhai County rose sharply. Food, clothing, housing and transportation were all improved. Who doesn't yearn for a good life? At the beginning, Gao Yao spent money to provide food and asked people to help. But when it came to Guilin County, Gao Yao didn't need to ask for help. Many local people took the initiative to help as long as they provided food.
Moreover, not only the Qin people, but even the people of Nanyue were willing to cooperate with Gao Yao's political initiatives. The reason for this was that Gao Yao had fulfilled his promises, and the people of Nanyue were treated equally to a large extent as the Qin people, except for taxes. After all, the tax burden set by Ying Zheng was mainly aimed at the Qin people who migrated to the three counties, not the local people. Qin Shihuang did not include the people of Nanyue in his calculations.
After the incident in Nanhai County, the people of Nanyue saw the benefits of Gao Yao's rule and were naturally willing to trust Gao Yao. Gao Yao's business had already expanded to the three counties of Kuaiji, Jiujiang, and Changsha. Among them, the wine business was the most profitable and the easiest to do business. Salt was the most profitable.
Because of the tight supply of goods, Gao Yao does not need to worry about the problem of selling goods, and can not only accept money, but also horses, whether they are war horses or not. At the same time, iron ore is also an important source of income for Gao Yao's transactions.
Now that he has Cao Shen and Han Xin leading the troops, Gao Yao basically doesn't need to worry. With Xiao He in charge of government affairs, Gao Yao basically doesn't need to worry about these two aspects for the time being. What he needs to consider now is earning more rewards. Rewards are the foundation for him to gain a foothold in the world today. Otherwise, he would have been killed by Yi Xiaochuan long ago.
"That being said, you still need to be careful. I'll leave this matter of Cao Shen to you for now."
"Well, my lord, don't worry, I will look after Han Xin."
"Old Xiao, it's time to make use of these people in Nanyue. Send them to explain to the Nanyue people in the mountains and forests that the Nanyue people who continue to stay in the mountains and forests will be treated as foreigners. If they leave the mountains and forests, they can go to the county city to receive half a month's rations, and the court will be responsible for arranging their living areas. The deadline is half a month. If there are still people who have not left, they will be treated as traitors and exterminated."
"My Lord, this... is a bit too hasty. This may cause dissatisfaction among many people in South Vietnam."
After hearing Gao Yao's words, Xiao He immediately expressed a different opinion, but Gao Yao shook his head.
"Don't worry, we have already given a lot of candied dates, the next thing is to give them to the Koreans. If we just give them benefits blindly, it will breed greed. People are like this. Don't you feel it? Recently, with more people in the city, many Nanyue people and Qin people have started to cause trouble, and most of them are because of disrespect."
"Hiss... My Lord, it seems to be true now."
"That's the reason. It's normal to have conflicts, but when the conflicts reach this level, it's obvious that some South Vietnamese are testing my bottom line. The purpose of their test is to determine where our bottom line is. And this stick doesn't need to hit these people on the head, but on those who didn't come, in order to kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
"Even after this, there are still people who choose to stay in the mountains. There are basically two types of people. One is those who insist on the local culture of Nanyue, and the other is those who are disliked by the people of Nanyue or dissatisfied with Daqin and us. No matter which type they are, it is almost certain that these people have no possibility of being conquered. There is no point in keeping them, so just kill them directly."
"My lord, if we kill these people, on the one hand, we can get rid of the unstable factors, and on the other hand, we can deter the people who have been incorporated into the lives of Nanhai County. It's a two-pronged approach."
"Yes, it has to be you, Lao Xiao. Of course, I came up with this idea, but the specific execution still depends on you, Lao Xiao. I am far behind in this aspect."
"Well, my lord, you are too modest. If these ideas were not yours, Cao Shen and I would never have thought of them."
"That's right. The longer I follow you, the more I realize that there must be a deeper meaning behind what you think and do. I was really short-sighted before."
"Ahem... that's not the case. It's not like what you said. I just thought about it a little more. You are the ones who are having trouble."
"Those who work with their minds rule others, and those who work with their hands are ruled by others. The lord often works harder, but the lord seems to have his own plans."
At this time, Xiao He seemed to have guessed Gao Yao's thoughts. Gao Yao seemed to be planning other actions, so he arranged everything.
"Well, there are some things. I have my own plans."
What Gao Yao said was about Yi Xiaochuan on the one hand, and about Qin Shi Huang on the other. He unified the eight wildernesses and six directions, but in this world, Qin Shi Huang was obviously not as wise and brave as in the original history. How could it be so easy for someone to unify China? It was just like what he said to Yi Xiaochuan at that time. Who said that the demise of the Qin Dynasty was destined? He did not want the Qin Dynasty to perish, and the Qin Dynasty would definitely be able to sweep across the eight wildernesses and six directions.
It's just that this matter is simple to say, but it is actually very difficult. First of all, Qin Shihuang was about to die, and Gao Yao had no time to do it. Another point is that in reality, without becoming a eunuch, it is almost impossible to go from an ordinary person to the point of being able to meet Qin Shihuang in a short period of time. Gao Yao doesn't have a brother like Meng Tian who he can pick up for free.
The main reason for leaving Xianyang was because Meng Tian was in Xianyang, Yi Xiaochuan was also there, plus Gao Yao was suspicious of Cui Wenzi, Gao Yao was helpless in the court, and might be killed. Going to the southern border could avoid the prying eyes of most people. Now the southern border has been initially stabilized, that is to say, even if Qin Shihuang died, as long as Gao Yao could return to the southern border, he would have the ability to settle in a corner or send troops to conquer the world. This could be considered a backup plan, plus Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Han Xin had defected, even if Gao Yao was no longer there, with the abilities of the three, he would definitely be able to stabilize the situation. From this moment on, Gao Yao was really ready to start preparing and planning to change the plot rewards of the Qin Dynasty. It could also be said that Gao Yao now finally had the qualifications.
