Qin Xiang

"I don't know what your majesty means..." Zheng Guo asked cautiously, but he already had a bad premonition in his heart.

Naturally, King Han didn't know what Zheng Guo was thinking, so he laughed and said to Zheng Guo: "The land of Qin is vast, and there are abundant things and people. It's a pity that there are few rivers in the area, and there is a shortage of talents like you to preside over it. Build irrigation channels."

Zheng Guo was dumbfounded. He is an authentic Korean. He naturally hopes that his country will be stronger, at least not to be wiped out.But now, King Han actually asked him to help Qin build irrigation canals?I'm afraid that Qin's food and grass will not be sufficient enough to destroy South Korea? !

Zheng Guo's wide-eyed and stupid appearance entertained Han Wang, and Han Wang walked up to Zheng Guo in shock, and said in his ear, "Don't worry, Aiqing, you can completely consume Qin's manpower and material resources by building canals, so our South Korea will be safe." .”

"..." This scheme was so flawless that he was speechless.However, out of love for his own country, Zheng Guo immediately knelt down and begged King Han to take back his order. In the short term, this strategy will consume Qin’s national strength, but in the long run, it will completely lay the foundation for Qin to destroy the six kingdoms. !

It's a pity that even though Zheng Guo's forehead was bleeding, the short-sighted Han Wang remained indifferent, and even asked Zheng Guo whether he was greedy for life and afraid of death, so he refused to join Qin as a spy.After all, if South Korea's intentions are discovered, then Zheng Guo will definitely bear the brunt of it, and will be cut down by the furious King Qin.

Zheng Guo's heart sank. He originally thought that he was appreciated by the King of Han this time, and he would finally have a bright future. He also wanted to find an opportunity to recommend his talented friend Han Fei, but it turned out to be like this.

"I grew up on this land, and I am definitely not a person who is afraid of death. I am willing to join the Qin Dynasty and complete this plan to exhaust Qin." Zheng Guo said in a word, he is just a small minister, Unable to change Han Wang's mind, now, he can only do this last thing for South Korea.

Zheng Guo's abnormal attitude was regarded as fear by Han Wang. He tried to comfort him patiently, and then sent his guards to send Zheng Guo out of the palace and go to Qin State as soon as possible.

When Han Fei heard that Zheng Guo was going to Qin to become an official, he was anxious and angry, his face was red, and he was about to go to the palace to remonstrate, but Zheng Guo hugged him tightly.Although Han Fei had an ordinary appearance and was born with a stutter, his small body was still frail. When he was hugged by Zheng Guo, the rough man who built the canal, he couldn't move like the tortoise whose shell had turned over.

"No, it's useless. Your Majesty is excited about the good idea he came up with, and now he can't listen to other opinions. What's more, he always thinks that building canals, dams and the like are too wasteful. At this time, I wish I could harm others. country." Zheng Guo could fully guess the monarch's dislike for him, so he couldn't help but smile wryly.

"Let go, let go!" Han Fei struggled hard. Unfortunately, although the literati had a backbone, in reality, his thighs were not as thick as Zheng Guo's arms.

Seeing that Han Fei's face was flushed with anger, Zheng Guo comforted him in a good voice: "Okay, don't be impulsive, King Han will never allow others to question his strategy."

Han Fei said "Hmm" with a serious expression on his face. He had already made a plan. For the future of South Korea, even if he was rejected forever, he would stop King Han.

Zheng Guo patted Han Fei on the head, and left in a hurry. He didn't have much time, so he had to bring his designs and tools drawn on the cloth.Because maybe after leaving this time, he might never come back again.

As soon as Zheng Guo left, Han Fei left his home as if he was dead, and wanted to enter the palace to ask King Han.

As soon as Han Wang heard that it was Han Fei who asked to see him, he was bored for a while when he thought of his stuttering and ordinary face.It was rare for him to come up with such a good plan. Of course, he wanted to celebrate with wine and beauty, so why did Han Fei come to join in the fun? !

Han Fei was blocked outside the palace gate like this, and stood until dark, but still did not see the monarch.

South Korea is located to the east of Qin State. Under the escort of the guards, Zheng Guo trekked mountains and rivers. He did not walk fast, and deliberately took a long detour in order to be able to inspect the geographical environment and river direction of Qin State.

Even since the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the vassal states have fought for territory and civilians like a cockfight, but things like helping each other and sending ministers to each other often happen.Therefore, Zheng Guo came from South Korea, but was personally received by King Qin Yingzheng.

Above the court, Zheng Guo saw the new king of Qin Yingzheng, his long twelve-fold mask covered his slightly immature face.Behind the King of Qin stood two teenagers, needless to say, they must be the legendary prodigy Gan Luo.

Gan Luo is lively and cheerful, with a smile, and his two dimples seem to be filled with honey, which makes people feel good when they look at them.Seeing this, Zheng Guo's beating heart calmed down a bit, and he couldn't help but smile back, thinking that this little Gan Luo was somewhat different from the smart and steady little master Han Fei said.

"Zheng Guo, you were introduced by King Han, but what are you capable of talking to me?" Ying Zheng said seriously.It also interrupted Zheng Guo's smirk.

Zheng Guo's heart skipped a beat, he was afraid of revealing his flaws, but luckily he was well prepared.He presented the cloth in his hand and explained it to Ying Zheng face to face.

"My minister is a little bit concerned about water conservancy. I have inherited from the lineage of the ancient Dayu. I am here this time, hoping to get a chance to display my talents." Zheng Guo once again saluted, even in the face of the young king, he did not dare to show it. Not the slightest bit.

"Just looking at this river map, Zheng Qing's family has wasted a lot of effort." Ying Zheng pointed to the two long, winding black lines on the cloth, warming up to Zheng Guo.

Zheng Guo was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and did not mention his hard work. Instead, he talked about a water conservancy expert in Qin State. "At that time, the land of Shu was low-lying and flooded. Thanks to the construction of Dujiangyan under the leadership of Li Bing and his son, the prefect of the Qin State, it became a land of abundance and produced a lot of grain every year. Not all places in the world are suitable for farming, and there are often droughts. If you want to change this situation, you need to build canals like Dujiangyan. Qin has a vast land and abundant resources, but there are only two rivers that can be irrigated, Luoshui and Jingshui. Where the river flows Natural food is abundant, but other places are still barren, which is not enough to support the huge consumption of Qin soldiers."

Zheng Guo's words can be regarded as speaking to Ying Zheng's heart. If he wants to develop his grand plan and hegemony, he must have enough food and grass to support him, but the current Qin State is far from reaching that strength.If you don't want to live in peace, you must build canals to increase food production.It is a pity that after the death of a talent like Li Bing, it is difficult to find a second one, and it is difficult to replicate the genius creativity of Dujiangyan.

On the river map given by Zheng Guo, next to the two black lines, the words Luoshui and Jingshui are written in big seal characters respectively. Compared with the territory of Qin State, the two rivers are like slender earthworms , making people feel annoyed.

"Since this is the case, what good strategy does Zheng Aiqing have?" Ying Zheng's expression was more kind, and he was completely different from his initial dissatisfaction.

Zheng Guo took out another piece of cloth from the wide sleeve robe, and covered it with Jingshui.Luoshui is the main body, and there are more black lines densely covering the whole territory of Qin State, indicating the channels to be built.Zheng Guo spread out the cloth and put it on the table in front of Ying Zheng. Even Gan Luo couldn't help but leaned forward to watch it carefully.

Zheng Guo was even more disturbed, because in the past when he presented this kind of map to the King of Han, he was usually treated coldly or scolded for his ulterior motives.

What he didn't expect was that Ying Zheng slapped his thigh happily, held up the map and said to Gan Luo, "Ah Luo, you see, if such a channel can be built, almost all the land in Qin can be obtained." Irrigation, I don’t know how much more grains can be produced?!”

Gan Luo nodded with a smile, and calculated silently in his heart. With so much more irrigated land, manpower consumption was reduced, and food production was increased. If it is stored, it can fully support an army of 10 people to fight all year round.He whispered a rough figure in Ying Zheng's ear.

Ying Zheng nodded. Although he hadn't been in charge yet, if it was a proposal he strongly demanded, Lu Buwei would seriously consider it.He believes that Lu Buwei's vision will definitely reuse Zheng Guo.

Ying Zheng stood up, took a few steps forward, held Zheng Guo's hand, and said sincerely: "Mr. If it can be repaired, the widow here will name it 'Zheng Guoqu' first, and let my husband and this canal be famous forever."

"Chen, Chen." Zheng Guo was stunned on the spot, shocked by Ying Zheng's painting. Which man doesn't want to be famous in history and make contributions? !He used to be depressed, but now that Maxima meets Bole, he can't wait to scream to the sky to express his excitement.The king of a country actually respected him as Mr. This is a treatment he has never had.

This time he knelt down sincerely, choked with sobs and said: "I must do my best to let Luoshui and Jingshui flow all over the land of Qin." The scholar died for his confidant, because of the trust of King Qin today, he must do it well "Zheng Guoqu" such a huge project.Although Zheng Guo is a spy, he also sincerely wants to do things, and has no intention of building unqualified canals.

"Why are you here, sir? I still hope that you can serve the Qin State for a long time." Ying Zheng ordered people to provide Zheng Guo with a good residence at the outermost edge of the palace.

That area is quiet and beautiful. After Yingzheng ascended the throne, it was refurbished and used to entertain sages from all over the world.Zheng Guo is the No.1 place to stay.

"It's still Mr. Zheng who is pure and sincere. If I promise him my sincerity, he will repay it with all his strength." Ying Zheng took off the crown from his head and said happily to Gan Luo.

Gan Luo thought of the uncle Weiliao who caused Yingzheng a headache, covered his mouth and snickered, "Don't worry, the uncle just has a prejudice against you, your sincerity will definitely impress him, I promise."

Ying Zheng's face darkened, and his teeth were itchy. He rushed over and overwhelmed Gan Luo, leaving a light teeth mark on the opponent's white and tender face before he relieved his anger.

"I don't believe in this evil anymore. Today we will go out of the palace and continue to torture Mr. Weiliao." Ying Zheng pinched Gan Luo's face and said.

Gan Luo begged for mercy and nodded.
