I was a fan in ancient times [Transmigration Book]

Yan Zheng was writing and drawing on the map for a long time, but found that there was no sound nearby, so he couldn't help turning his head to look, and found Han Yizheng's big eyes and a surprised expression on his face.

Yan Zheng asked, "What? No way?"

Han Yi struggled for a while and said, "It's okay, but this is a big project."

Yan Zheng smiled and said, "However, this is the foundation of the future. Once it is built, not to mention never ending border troubles, at least they can be found before they come to loot, and the frontier army can deal with it early."

Han Yi glanced at the inconspicuous black line on the map, and asked, "When do you plan to start building?"

Yan Zheng said: "Naturally, the sooner the better, the dog army is about to move, and we can't let it go."

Han Yi said: "This is a big project. Some of these mountains are in very steep places. I'm afraid it will not be easy to build."

Yan Zheng tilted his head and looked at him: "You don't agree?"

Han Yi said, "I don't know."

Yan Zheng was very curious: "I don't know? Why don't you know?"

Han Yi has always been a very thoughtful person, and rarely has such an answer.

Han Yi thought for a while and said: "The Great Wall is indeed a good thing that can benefit future generations, but...to build it requires too much manpower and material resources. The current Daqin may not have such strength, or it may have strength. But if you want to see results in the short term, you may... many people will die."

"Great Wall?" Yan Zheng raised his eyebrows: "You even have a name, but it's appropriate."

Oops, missed the point.

Right now, Yan Zheng just has such an idea, and he hasn't fully formed his idea yet. How could he think of such a thing as a name?

Han Yi said with a guilty conscience: "This is not the point."

Yan Zheng nodded: "I know what you mean, do you think Quan Rong will not let us build the Great Wall, so he will attack?"

Han Yi shook his head: "No, it has nothing to do with Quan Rong."

Yan Zheng looked at him with some puzzlement, Han Yi stared at him and said: "Those who were dragged to build the Great Wall may die of exhaustion or illness due to the requirements of the construction period."

Yan Zheng suddenly realized, he frowned and said: "Such heavy labor is naturally done by death row prisoners, why do you care about their life and death?"

Han Yi couldn't help laughing and said: "The laws of the Great Qin Dynasty are strict. How can there be so many death row prisoners? What a huge project this is. The entire Great Wall is thousands of miles away. It is not enough to throw all the death row prisoners across the country."

Yan Zheng turned his head and looked at the screen. After some calculations in his mind, he realized that it was really not enough.

Not to mention the death row, even if all the prisoners were thrown there, it would not be enough.

If it was before, Yan Zheng would definitely choose to throw the captives over to build.

But now he is influenced by Han Yi and subconsciously thinks that even the captives are still citizens of Great Qin, so this is not acceptable.

Yan Zheng looked at the screen a little unwillingly, but he also knew that Han Yi was right.

Han Yi is actually contradictory, whether to use the temporary suffering of the people to lay the foundation for the eternal life, or to give up this idea.

The main reason is that the Great Wall and Qinhuangling's two severe corvee made Daqin lose the hearts of the people. Qinhuangling's words... Han Yi didn't want to wrong Yan Zheng. What's wrong with wanting a more luxurious place to sleep after death?

He has this qualification.

It's just that Yan Zheng's mind doesn't seem to be on the mausoleum now, and he hasn't even chosen the location of the mausoleum yet.

All his enthusiasm is to make this country stronger and stronger.

Han Yi looked at his unwilling gaze, sighed, and said, "Then do it."

Yan Zheng turned his head and looked at him in surprise: "Didn't you say it's inappropriate now?"

Han Yi said: "If you worry too much, there will be no suitable time."

After all, such a large investment, not just any monarch has such courage.

Han Yi made up his mind, but Yan Zheng hesitated. In fact, in this matter, what kind of suffering the people will suffer is not the focus of his concern. The focus of his concern is that Han Yi doesn't like it.

Except on the bed, when Han Yi said no to him, Yan Zheng would try his best to give in.

So he still said: "Wait a little longer."

Han Yi did not object this time but said: "It is true that we need to wait a little longer. Sharpening the knife does not miss the woodcutter. We must first make the preparations."

Yan Zheng asked, "What do you think needs to be prepared?"

Han Yi thought seriously and said: "Going there is sparsely populated because it is close to Quan Rong. Many places are barren mountains and wild mountains. If you want to build the Great Wall, you need a lot of stone materials. Maybe you can use local materials for this, but others It needs to be transported from other places. If you want to send it to the construction site, the road for transportation needs to be opened first, and then there is the problem of transporting it up the mountain. There are still so many people who eat, drink and scatter. The most important thing to solve is probably the money problem. .”

Yan Zheng looked at the points listed by Han Yi, stretched out his hand and clicked on the last item, and said, "Many wealthy businessmen have risen in Daqin these years, and they should also contribute to Qin."

As soon as Han Yi heard it, he knew that Yan Zheng still had old ideas. He felt that businessmen were not important, and they were the only ones who benefited from business.

Yet the country is alive only when commerce is active.

However, this thing involves some economics, and it is too troublesome to explain, so Han Yi said: "It is certain to ask them to pay, but it cannot be forced, and some special methods can be used."

Yan Zheng asked, "What special method?"

Han Yi thought for a while and said: "Those who pay can give them some preferential terms and the like, and even give them plaques from the court, no...the court can order a batch of special tools, gold coins or other things, specially for gifting The wealthy businessmen who donate to these have to be graded, each grade is unique, and you can only get it after donating a certain amount, the more you donate, the more exquisite things you get, and there must be people who are willing."

Yan Zheng frowned: "This thing has no special purpose, and those pragmatic businessmen may not be willing."

Han Yi thought for a while and said: "You can try to let the wind out first, and if no one is willing, you can add some other benefits. This thing is up to you. It is also possible to give them some convenience. After all, it is also for Daqin. gone."

Yan Zheng was helpless: "You are soft-hearted."

Han Yi took the opportunity to say: "I am not soft-hearted, but a gentleman."

When Han Yi said the latter sentence, he was actually very guilty. A gentleman or something...had nothing to do with him, but he wanted to take the opportunity to instill Confucianism in Yan Zheng.

In troubled times, Confucianism is indeed not suitable for governing the country, but it will be very suitable after the world is unified.

Of course, what he was talking about was today's Confucianism, not the twisted one that was distorted by later generations.

Yan Zheng could hear what Han Yi meant, he turned his head to look at Han Yi and asked, "Are you really starting to study Confucianism?"

Han Yi smiled and said: "The success of Confucianism means that it has some truth. Legalism can indeed quickly make the country more stable in troubled times, but have you ever thought about it? Once the world is peaceful and the people live and work in peace, it will continue like this , it is not appropriate."

Yan Zheng frowned: "What's wrong with restricting by law?"

Han Yi said: "It's not that the restraint is not good, but that it should be properly restrained. It should not be too strict, and the people will be overwhelmed, and problems will arise."

Yan Zheng seemed to take it seriously, but he didn't seem to take it seriously.

In fact, think about it, the current system of Daqin has made the country from weak to strong, and now there is a faint tendency to become the world's hegemony. It is normal for Yan Zheng not to want to change.

After all, once it changes, there is no telling what it will become.

Han Yi felt that he seemed to use the wrong method, and he should not let Yan Zheng use any theory.

As a king, he should not be kidnapped by theories, but adapt to the times and use whatever is needed.

It has not yet been unified, so the heavy code is still used, and when the world is unified and stabilized, it is necessary to recuperate.

As for how to recuperate, you can change it a little bit at that time, and you don't need to rely on a certain theory.

Han Yi's heart suddenly brightened, and he stopped mentioning this matter, but changed the topic back to the Great Wall.

After he discussed with Yan Zheng, Yan Zheng took the paper the two of them wrote and drew casually and ordered casually: "Recruit Zhangtai Palace for discussion."

Immediately, a young eunuch ran to inform Qian Cheng and others.

Han Yi followed Yan Zheng all the way to Zhangtai Palace. When they passed by, everyone was already full. The Sangong and Jiuqing were all there. Everyone followed Yan Zheng with some doubts in their hearts.

Every time Yan Zheng suddenly called someone to discuss something during the non-court meeting, it meant that something big happened, but they couldn't figure out what the big thing was.

Prime Minister Qian and Da Shuchang were very calm and not worried at all.

The two of them have now figured out the rules. If Yan Zheng convenes all the important ministers to discuss matters, then this matter is not particularly serious, at least not serious enough to threaten Daqin.

And if Yan Zheng just invites the two of them to discuss matters, then something big will happen. If Han Yi is added, this matter will probably make them unable to sleep well for two or three days.

Yan Zheng asked people to place the map in the middle, and then Han Yi directly described Yan Zheng's vision for the Great Wall on his behalf.

When he mentioned Quanrong, everyone didn't look surprised, and Han Yi knew that everyone hadn't forgotten this nation.

When the construction of the Great Wall was mentioned, there was a little commotion above the main hall.

Han Yi paused after he finished speaking, to give everyone some time to digest the question. He originally thought that there would be objections.

However, to his surprise, these people actually looked very excited.

The younger ones looked very excited, while the older ones thought more. After secretly pinching his fingers to make the calculations, Zhi Suaishi said a little worriedly: "It needs a lot of money."

Now that Daqin is still fighting, it would be too difficult to support the construction of the Great Wall while fighting.

Yan Zheng talked about the idea of ​​letting rich households pay, and mentioned Han Yi's idea by the way. Everyone thought about it. It's a solution, so let's pass it for the time being, and discuss the details later.

Then there are different people asking different questions.

It's just that Han Yi has thought about all the questions they came up with and given a general idea.

In the end, everyone looked at each other and felt a sense of powerlessness. Han Yi thought of everything, which seemed a little incompetent.

Prime Minister Qian glanced at Jiuqing below and said, "Mr. Yueyue will have no problems on the big picture. If you really want to show its usefulness, you have to discuss the details. What a bunch of fools."

Prime Minister Qian, who thought he was not stupid, began to inquire carefully about the road construction.

In fact, Han Yi has no good solution in this regard. Road construction is a waste of time. If you really want to repair it, when it is finished, I am afraid that neither he nor Yan Zheng will see the day when the Great Wall is completed.

But don't talk about him, even others have no good way.

Yan Zheng looked at the picture and said simply: "Don't be so troublesome. Where there is no road, make two ruts, as long as the car can walk on it."

Han Yi paused, and glanced at him: The car is on the same track, here it comes.
