Good Life in Qin Dynasty

This year is not as cold as last year, and there is not such a big snowstorm, so the winter is still very good. There is news from the north that it seems that the places further north in northern Xinjiang are not having a good life.

Some people also speculate whether the Huns and Donghu people will migrate north next year just like the Dog Rong and Shan Rong?

After all, tribes such as Gu Zhu moved north.

"Impossible. The Huns have been fighting with the Central Plains for many years. If they want to leave, they will leave long ago. Why stay here!" Old General Meng Ao said firmly: "Before their food reserves are exhausted, , they will not give up."

There are also some people who understand foreigners, such as those in the south, they all feel that they have been fooled by the people in the north. At that time, it was agreed that everyone would do it together, and Qin must be too busy to take care of itself. Which one can let them get in?

Thinking of the border trade market and those good things from Qin State, they were tempted!

As a result, when the war broke out, the frontier trade was no longer to be counted on, and the mutual market was gone. They had just lived a life of luxury and enjoyment, and suddenly they were asked to return to the old days of ruthlessness and blood drinking. Who could bear it?

But no matter what they demanded, the Qin State will not open the mutual market, so what should we do?

"Then ask someone to set fire to their rear!" Ying Zheng thought of an idea: "Force them to move!"

"But the weather is so cold...?" Zhang Ping frowned. Although he doesn't understand military affairs, is such a cold weather really suitable for expeditions?Or sneak attack?

Li Jiyang also felt that something was wrong. Although the people here had cotton clothes, it was colder outside the pass than inside the pass.

Then he came to his senses, people, no, robots can!

Sure enough, the two looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts.

Everyone is immune to the emperor and the emperor who show their affection in open meetings. For so many years, even some officials have lost their passionate love for their wives, leaving only family affection. Your Majesty has always been so sticky.

It's like being in love forever!

Among them, Li Si felt the deepest.

Luckily, the eldest daughter Li Qian didn't give her time to implement those plans, otherwise it would be a waste of effort even if they were implemented.

It also delayed the marriages of several children at home....

In the end, the recruiting regiment, which was said to have 1 people, attacked again. They had never seen the general of the recruiting regiment, and they only knew that they were one of the emperor's bodyguards.

"Why don't you give him a military position?" Old General Wang Jai loved talents: "Wouldn't it be nice to let him lead the army in an open and honest manner?"

"He is... oh, a miraculous person, he is Xiaoyang's second senior brother..." Ying Zheng explained in a secretive way: "... being my personal bodyguard is just a name..."

Everyone understood immediately!

It is said that when the second senior brother was away, he left manpower to guard his younger brother Qin Anjun, and gave him a large number of manpower. Everyone thought that Qin Anjun, at the age of a weak crown, could deter the emperor Lu Buwei, relying on him The method of "sending it all over the Qin Dynasty overnight".

Because there is no sound, no one knows how he did it!

After hearing the wind, everyone was surprised and even more scrupulous.

I have a new understanding of the huge number of people in Qin Anjun's school. When the emperor and the emperor got married, the 1 seniors were really shocking! ...They are all dressed in fluttering white clothes, except for Ling Yi, the Lord of the Lost Valley, you don't know the rest of them!

Who is the second brother?Third brother?

In the back row, every senior brother is so powerful, they are worthy of being disciples of immortals.

So everyone stopped asking.

Because the Sifang Ark stops there.

After Ying Zheng left the court again, he went to arrange manpower.

Li Jiyang went to see the empress dowagers of the two palaces. It is winter and there is no snowstorm this year. Let them celebrate the Qianqiu Festival.

The winter passed in such a lively way, but after the New Year's Eve banquet and the sacrifice on the sixth day of the first lunar month, Ying Zheng announced the opening of the money bank!

The news of Qian Xing was widely publicized in the newspapers!

Li Jiyang looked at the small loan in the newspaper triumphantly: "Who will dare to lend usury among the people in the future!"

"Usury can't be banned..." Ying Zheng sighed: "Some people have a bad reputation, and money banks won't give them loans. That's what you call creditworthiness."

And he doesn't know how Xiaoyang's credibility is evaluated, anyway, everyone can evaluate it!

Especially for civilians, they are rated higher than nobles!

This made the nobles, big and small, very dissatisfied with this, but because Li Jiyang and the famous Qin Anjun were in charge, none of them dared to say anything.

"I know." Li Jiyang was unhappy. Many people just need to be dealt with, such as gambling. Those who owe money from gambling will not be given loans by money banks.

These people will be potential customers of the underground money houses and loan sharks.

"There is no way." Ying Zheng has been actively reforming, and he hopes to leave his brother a peaceful and prosperous Great Qin Empire.

"How about...set rules for casinos?" Li Jiyang's eyes lit up, and the mention of casinos reminded him of Macau in later generations.

Known as the world's gambling city, there are all kinds of gambling games there, but there are certain rules. Money is one aspect, but gambling has requirements.

What's more, they actually focus on "competitive games" over there, supplemented by gambling.

Li Jiyang proposed to control the number of gambling and the amount of gambling money!

"Ah?" Ying Zheng never thought of it that way!

"For example, a person can only gamble three times, and each time cannot exceed one tael of silver!"

Li Jiyang slipped out the new money: "Officials are prohibited from gambling. Of course, those who can be officials are basically nobles."

In fact, the concept of aristocrats has been blurred by Li Jiyang intentionally or unintentionally in today's Qin State. At best, the old and the young from all over the world, although they still have the airs of aristocrats, if no one becomes an official, they are nobles. But three generations.

A real noble, like a clan, like a bureaucrat general, or a family with a title of inheritance, is a noble!

"What about nobles without official positions?" Ying Zheng thought of something.

"Where there is a title, there is an official position. It doesn't matter whether he is a false or actual position. As long as he is an official appointed by the court, anyone who dares to gamble will be demoted!" Li Jiyang said harshly: "If you dare to teach repeatedly and refuse to change, after three times, the title will be taken back!"

Ying Zheng swallowed: "Is it too serious?"

Not to mention outside, the servants in the palace also like to play two games when they are free...

"If you don't be tough, they won't remember the lesson!" Li Jiyang said: "Gambling ruined everything!"

Ying Zheng: "...!"

"There are also brothels!" Li Jiyang mentioned another one: "Can this be banned?"

"It seems... a bit difficult...." Ying Zheng was worried: "How long have you been in the brothel..."

"How long?" Li Jiyang retorted: "How did the brothel come about? Didn't it come from the pipe? You said he is a good legalist, why is he so attractive?"

Ying Zheng laughed lightly: "Isn't that necessary at that time!"

"Pull it down!" Li Jiyang curled his lips: "I think I'm too busy!"

From the period of the Three Emperors, there were prostitutes, singing girls, etc. who were categorized but not detailed enough.

However, according to historical records, Guan Zhong was an "official prostitute" controlled by the state.

The earliest official brothel was opened by Guan Zhong, Prime Minister of Qi State in the Spring and Autumn Period in the middle of the seventh century BC.That is, "Eastern Zhou Policy" in "Warring States Policy", "Seven cities in the palace of Duke Huan of Qi, seven hundred daughters".

Nvlu, that is, the house where prostitutes live, is also the brothel of later generations.

The first purpose is to meet the requirements of young men, and the second is to protect women from good families from being harassed.But Guan Zhong's brothel has a greater effect.One is to increase the government's fiscal revenue through taxation;

Guan Zhong's invention was quickly imitated by other countries, and the official prostitutes flourished for a while.According to ancient records, the prostitution business established by the government at that time was for the purpose of collecting taxes.

"At that time, Qi State was indeed stronger than other countries." Ying Zheng said something fair.

"That's right, but how innocent are those women?" Li Jiyang felt that Guanzi's ability was a problem: "If Guanzi really has the ability, why should he be so unscrupulous? Like me, relying on my own ability to assist you, Lu Buwei was so arrogant at the time, it's not because we Killed! And with a woman like this, who knows that there will be a man someday?"

Ying Zheng's complexion was not good, because he was married to Xiao Yang, and there were King Wei and Long Yang, the Lord of Migu and Han Fei.

Someone followed suit and wanted to find some good-looking boys, but he secretly punished him severely!

Only then did the trend stop, but I felt something was wrong in my heart, I didn't expect Xiaoyang to think so fast!

"Okay, then what do you think we should do?" Ying Zheng gritted his teeth and straightened out the atmosphere!

With his support, Li Jiyang knew that the matter was half done!

In fact, he also can't get used to this era, and it's just like that. In fact, is there anyone in Daqin who can't marry a wife?

No!

These days because of successive years of war, there are more women than men!

And although life is not tight, there is no extra money to spend time.

Those who went to brothels were rich, or officials, and nobles.

There is no shortage of women in their family, even beautiful women, why bother to go there?

To put it bluntly, Li Jiyang was worried for them, what if he developed a disease of willows?

Although there are specialists who treat gynecology and pediatrics at this moment, there are no specialists who treat such diseases!

There are not even medicines for that disease!

He remembered, as if he had heard Xia Wuqiu say that if he had a heart disease, he should cut off that piece of meat...

At that time Li Jiyang didn't want to understand, but later he saw Zhao Xi and remembered the meaning of these words...

"Banish prostitution and whoring!" Li Jiyang said viciously: "Whoever dares to prostitute in the future will be exiled for three thousand miles!"

Ying Zheng: "...it's a bit serious...?"

"It's not serious!" Li Jiyang continued: "If officials dare to go, the punishment will be doubled!" There are still all kinds of unspoken rules in later generations. There are no express laws and regulations. Who knows which corrupt officials will take advantage of the loopholes?

"So, you go to Han Fei and discuss it?" Ying Zheng suggested to Li Jiyang: "He is a person who understands the law."

"Yeah!" Li Jiyang felt that what Ying Zheng said was right, he specialized in arts, no matter how much he thought about talking to Ying Zheng here, he couldn't be as good as Han Fei's professional counterpart!

So Li Jiyang went to find Han Fei boldly, and Ying Zheng was relieved. Xiao Yang suddenly became concerned about the social atmosphere, which made Ying Zheng afraid that he knew that some people were curious about men's affairs because of their affairs, but they were not. Like them, I was afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, so I never told him...

Li Jiyang came just after Han Fei finished writing the various legal procedures about Qian Xing.

"What are you doing running out of the palace?" Han Fei knew that Qin Anjun was rarely seen in the first month.

"I have something to do with you!" Li Jiyang sat down, took off his fur cloak, and told Han Fei his plan.

"Since the emperor has agreed, it must be feasible, as long as we..." Han Fei is indeed a professional, and he is very good at various rules and regulations. He chatted with Li Jiyang all day, and Li Jiyang did not return to the palace at night Han Fei stayed here.

It happened that Ling Yi led people, followed Zhang Liang, and guarded the activities of exchanging new money for old money in various parts of Daqin.

With him following Zhang Liang and a group of thugs called "security guards" who were actually bodyguard robots, many people who wanted to play tricks and mess around couldn't help but stop.

Newspapers were published all over the country, and the ratio of currency exchange was announced long ago. The imperial court's return also explained it, and a big piece of paper was posted at the gate of the yamen and the gate of the money bank, which also had the prescribed exchange ratio.
