Emperor Qin

Raw rice is cooked rice, Yan Jiang understands that it is meaningless to entangle whether Linjiang's Linjiang is "Linxing", but the next Linjiang Terrace is absolutely impossible, so he just gave King Qin a supercilious look, and turned around by himself. Charcoal pen, began to think about what to build in the house is more suitable for myself.

It can't be too high, the technology in this era is not enough.

And be durable.

Buildings like the Taj Mahal are actually quite beautiful, but it is a pity that the cost is too high and it will be forked.

Chinese-style classical architecture is more suitable for building groups of garden landscapes, rather than being beautiful alone. But building a courtyard, with his current status, is not safe. Building a large manor and only using it for himself seems too much. spent.

His thoughts turned quickly. If he wanted to build a big manor, how would he use it?

Well, if you can build a market—no, business matters are too troublesome, you can build a library, you can let poor students copy books for a living, books can't be borrowed, they can only be read and copied in the library.

Well, you can sell pens, ink, paper and inkstones in the museum, and then, you can make a theater, instead of performing dramas every day, you can use it for scholars to give lectures, and you can also lend it to major schools to hold gatherings to discuss the content of each school.

If there are more rooms around, they can be rented to foreign scholars to study.

You know, after the six kingdoms are unified, Xianyang will be the capital of the world, and those who want to make progress will definitely come in large numbers.

This real estate can be speculated.

Well, to be a college manor requires various supporting facilities.

Yan Jiang drew a map of the vicinity of Xianyang casually, and his eyes fell on the other side of Xianyang City, that is, the large open space on the south bank of the Weishui River.

Later generations of Chang'an almost swallowed Xianyang into a district. Such a good place can be developed in advance, and now there is a wooden bridge on the Weihe River, and the transportation is very convenient.

The only inconvenience is that this place has not yet been developed, it is the family hunting ground of King Qin, and common people are not allowed to enter.

But it's not a big problem, Yan Jiang rubbed his waist, took the map and sat next to King Qin, and drew a circle on the map. King Qin turned his head to look, and with a swipe of his pen, gave him the entire hunting ground of a hundred miles , extremely overbearing.

So Yan Jiang began to draw renderings, thinking about what to build.

Pictures such as the Colosseum and the Acropolis turned in his mind, but he deleted them. There were no speakers in this era, so if you want to have a performance, you must consider the reverberation and transmission of sound.

He drew the internal structure diagram, and brand new buildings slowly took shape in his hands.

He referred to the sound transmission wall of the modern small courtyard theater without speakers, made the venue as large as possible, reduced the pillars of the venue in the form of outer wall buttress support, and used zenith light for lighting to highlight the effect of the central stage. Use a three-story building to strengthen the use of space...

Above the main structure can be cornice folds...

When Yan Jiang finished the painting, he found that King Qin was staring at the painting, and then asked him where do you and I live?

He really didn't design it well.

……

After finding a new job, Yan Jiang devoted himself to the great cause of construction engineering.

He used craftsmen and inkmen to work hard for his big plan. Under the heavy construction, Yan Jiang also made engineering artifacts such as winch cranes, pulley blocks, and pedal cutting machines in order to improve efficiency, which greatly accelerated the progress of the project.

The winch crane is to add a movable bracket on the car, and hang a pulley block on the bracket. The original appearance of the pedal cutting machine and the pedal sewing machine is similar, except that the rotating shaft drives the disc. They are all ancient construction tools, and there are many in the history of construction. recorded.

When Xiang Liyun's craftsmen saw it, they almost knelt down for him, saying that he was the great benefactor of Shaofu.

Then I asked carefully, and found out that erecting beams and hanging timbers are very dangerous jobs in many cases, requiring the cooperation of several to dozens of people, which is very prone to accidents. With winches and pulley blocks, countless people can be saved. Human life, and it can also be used to build bridges and cities.

While Yan Jiang sighed that the tyranny is fiercer than a tiger, His Majesty who flew over to visit the class beat the back of the head with his wings.

While he was immersed in the construction industry, the unification of weights and measures by the King of Qin also began to unfold vigorously.

The laws of the Qin people are very rough. The original plan of the King of Qin was to order the localities to confiscate the original weights and measures of the six countries, and to order the localities to pay taxes and distribute the full use of the Qin system. Exile in Longxi.

Yan Jiang felt that this was too inhumane. To put it bluntly, the King of Qin agreed to let the localities under his rule prepare the weights and measures of the Qin system first, and then let the localities trade in the old for the new, and gave a three-month buffer period.

However, it is not a small expense for Qin to pay the replacement of the old amount, but this opinion was put forward by Yan Jiang, and neither Zhisu Neishi nor Shaofu said anything. After all, this Yanzi can be called Qin. The money bag of the country, whether it is the Shaofu who is in charge of the workers or the internal history of the millet who collects millet, has been favored by him, but Yan Zi's opinion has not been appreciated by the old people of the Six Kingdoms - they only think that Qin State is harsh and troublesome , There is simply no day for a happy life.

Yan Jiang didn't need their gratitude either. If the unification of the six kingdoms was the basis for building the Chinese Empire, then the unification of weights and measures for the same books and vehicles was the basis for the unification of civilization.

Is the Maurya Dynasty big?So what about the unification of India, it is not divided into countless small countries until 2000 years later.

Not to mention the area of ​​Babylon, where Persia and Arabia have already fought a deep hatred that is deeper than that of China and Japan.

Among them, words and standards are the key. Only when these two points are confirmed, can all government orders be conveyed without error. Without this guarantee, the old culture will revive tenaciously like weeds, trying to restore its original strength.

As for the cars on the same track.

Yan Jiang’s proposal to the King of Qin was still dumping at a low price. As a result, Wang Wan and several colleagues were at the King of Qin’s office to discuss the logistics summary of the attack on Chu. It is the four major revenues of the Qin state treasury, which can almost offset a small half of the tax.

Both King Qin and the Shaofu were very resistant to this - what they lost was a lot of money!

The internal history of governance is also very explosive. In the past few years, the Six Kingdoms have been fought, and the treasury has been used by Wei Liao to do PY transactions. That means he has never been to Qin State. If he wants to come to Qin State, he will find that the rats in the warehouse are better off than the rats in the warehouse.

Yan Jiang popularized the benefits of small profits but quick turnover for them. Firstly, manufacturers must leave enough profits for distributors, so that the business can grow bigger and stronger. Like paper, when the price of paper is high, although the income is high, it is far away. It is not as good as the large sales revenue when the paper price is low.Secondly, Ruoqin cars are sold well in the six countries, and after a long time, the cars will naturally be on the same track.

The reason that the cars were on the same track was so powerful that everyone present was silent for a while.

People in later generations don't quite understand the use of the same track, but in the Warring States Period, anyone who has traveled around the world knows how important it is.

Wooden wheels are strong and narrow, and will form ruts on the dirt road. If the gauges are the same, it will save time and effort to follow the ruts on the front road, but if the gauges are different, it is easy to get a wheel stuck in it. No matter how dragged the cows and horses are, they can’t get out. People have to get out of the carts, lift the carts and destroy the horses, in order to get out of the predicament. Get stuck in another rut and lift again.

The reason why we rely so much on water transportation during wars is because land routes are not only expensive, but cross-border wars are also difficult. It is not easy to transport food, and it also damages vehicles and horses.

Even because of this, an idiom called "changing the strings and changing the ruts" was born to describe major changes.

But is the car so easy to change?

Cars were a very valuable property in the Warring States Period. One thousand cars was the "country of a thousand vehicles", which was considered a big country. If the axle of a car was replaced, the carriage would also need to be replaced, which was almost equivalent to buying a new car.

The big nobles naturally don't care, but if they do this, it will be tantamount to offending all the huge middle and low-level car owners in the six countries.

Because of this, the difference in cars has seriously hindered the transportation of the six countries. If such a change can be made, a little money does not seem to be a big problem.

But Qin Wang still felt that he was at a loss. His decision was not to sell cheaply, but instead ordered all the current craftsmen of the six countries to make cars in the future, they should be made according to the Qin system. If they violated, they should come to Shaofu to make cars.

Wang Wan and others agreed very much, while King Qin gently expressed to Yan Jiang that it was okay to be low, but not too low, and that it would cost money to destroy Chu.

Yan Jiang was displeased by this, and slept on the construction site for half a month and did not return to Linjiang Palace.

His Majesty first turned into a bird to comfort him, but Yan Jiang was unmoved.

Then King Qin asked someone to send a pillow over, frantically implying that he could not sleep alone, but Yan Jiang remained unmoved.

King Qin is someone who will never admit defeat!

So after he finished his work, he came to the south of the Weihe River in person, first teased Ah Jiang to pay for the pain of parting, and then gently explained the reason to him: "A Jiang is not angry, the way of an emperor is to balance the overall situation, and the monarch and his ministers are united. The direction of the people is always the last consideration, and besides, it is tolerance not to kill the old nobles of the six countries, and there is absolutely no reason to fatten the enemy."

Even before, he never thought about it, and he had been out with A Jiang for a long time, so he added Ming to his own thinking logic, although it didn't take up much.

Yan Jiang naturally also knew this reason, lying on the tiger's back and said quietly: "I also know this reason, but it's just a little bit hard to understand, but what you said is also reasonable. I am troubled."

King Qin was right, if he didn't kill the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms, the result would be that the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms would destroy the country, but he had to bear most of the blame himself.

Qin Wang's powerful sixth sense immediately aroused the desire to survive. He held A Jiang's hand and said firmly: "A Jiang's words are all the most reasonable. It is my good fortune that I am strong and soft, complement each other, and benefit each other. Why? Could it be troublesome? But there is a villain who slanders you, so this widow..."

"It's over!" Yan Jiang glanced at him, changed the subject, stretched out his fingertips and scratched the scar on his leg, "It's already March, when will Qin send troops?"

"It will take some time for the army to go out and assemble," King Qin made a rough calculation, "It should be March when there is no army in the cold spring."

Spring is warm in March, no winter clothes are needed, and it is spring plowing in Chu. At this time, troops are sent out, and the morale of the opposite army is easily shaken.

"The leader who came to assassinate earlier, can you find out?" Yan Jiang asked with a smile.

He had been thinking about Bo Lang's loss for a long time.

"It has been found out, it is Lord Changwen." Qin Wang said at this time, his expression was cold, Changwen Changping Lord is a brother, and he is also an important minister he relies on, so the danger that time was not lost to Jing Ke's assassination of Qin.

"I think..." Yan Jiang didn't finish his sentence when he went to Chu State to find Lord Changping.

"No, don't think about it!" King Qin narrowed his eyebrows slightly, and pressed his wrist on the tiger's soft back, "It's too high to send troops, you'll be punished for ignoring you for more than ten days!"
