Chapter 290: If you travel to Daqin
"Okay, I'll wait." Qin An said with a smile.
The reason why he said this was because he really didn't want to hurt Ying Zheng, and he also made it very clear that rubber was only available in Yunnan, Hainan and Guangzhou.
To own these ten miles and eight villages is simply a dream, it is impossible.
Besides, you can buy whatever you want in three years. The jewelry and gold the village chief gave you are enough to last you a lifetime. It’s very important to buy something for the village.
Immediately, Qin An drew the appearance of a rubber tree and also talked about some methods of rubber planting. Ying Zheng and others memorized it carefully.
Then Qin An invited everyone to have a barbecue.
There are three barbecue grills in total, and each grill can accommodate five to seven people grilling and eating together.
Qin An, Ying Zheng, Li Si, Feng Quji and Wei Liaozi formed one grill, Feng Yan, Xu Xing and other six representatives formed one grill.
Zhang Han and the three women shared a barbecue, and some villagers shared a barbecue.
The barbecue has officially begun, and Qin An takes the lead in grilling the fish.
"Village Chief." Qin An pretended to be mysterious and said, "In addition to the barbecue today, I also specially prepared a delicacy for everyone. A delicacy made with chicken."
"What kind of food?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.
"Let me keep it a secret, and I'll tell everyone when it's ready to eat," Qin An said.
"Haha..." Ying Zheng laughed, "Sir, you are also very naughty."
Li Si and others also laughed.
Qin An didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Life should have some fun occasionally, otherwise life would be boring if you keep a straight face every day."
"That's good," Ying Zheng said, "Life does need some fun."
Li Si and others nodded slightly.
"Sir." Wei Liaozi said at this time, "The soldiers I trained have had obvious results and their strength has increased a lot.
When can we start training military formations? "
Qin An thought for a while and said: "Whenever Mo Dao is built, we can start. As long as Mo Dao's soldiers are on the move, the cavalry will no longer be an opponent.
Even if you face those barbarians, you no longer need to be afraid. "
Wei Liaozi nodded and said, "Sir, you are right. Once these five hundred swordsmen are trained successfully, they can be drawn out to fight against the Huns."
Qin An nodded and said: "If it had been in the early Han Dynasty, with Mo Dao soldiers, the Huns would not have dared to make mistakes."
Liu Bang's marriage policy is an indelible stain in history, and it can also be regarded as a stain on the Han people.
Fortunately, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che washed away this stain and completely defeated the Xiongnu.
"Sir," Ying Zheng said, "By the way, I just saw Manman and the others playing chess. I thought it was very interesting. Who invented this chess?"
"There is no conclusion yet on this." Qin An said, "But there is no doubt that chess came from China, and it came into being after the Chu-Han period. The reason is the four characters Chu, River and Han in the middle.
Since ancient times, the chess board has been engraved with the four characters Chu, River and Han. "
Ying Zheng said: "Yes, I also saw the four characters Chu, He and Han on the chessboard, and I also had some guesses. But I didn't expect that the inventor of chess has no way to find out. It is really a pity."
"Sir," Li Si said, "I have always wanted to know, what was the world like during the Qin Dynasty?"
"The pattern of the whole world?" Qin An frowned slightly and said, "How do you say this? The pattern of the world two thousand years ago was very backward in many places, equivalent to the Stone Age.
However, I know that there are three empires that can be compared with the Qin Dynasty. They are the Maurya Dynasty, the Persian Empire and the Ancient Roman Empire.
Among them, the Persian Dynasty and the Maurya Dynasty were close to the Qin Dynasty, but there was a Xiongnu and the Western Regions in the middle.
During the Qin Dynasty, because there were no maps, coupled with the bad weather, and more importantly, the First Emperor at that time was obsessed with obtaining the elixir of immortality, he was not at all interested in developing the Western Regions. "
Li Si and others glanced at Ying Zheng unconsciously.
Ying Zheng was a little embarrassed and immediately said: "Sir, if you go to Da Qin, what will you do?"
Qin An smiled and said: "The village chief asked this question well. Today's young people more or less have a time-travel dream, hoping that they can travel to ancient times, make wine, make perfume, and finally become a rich man.
Either enter the court and help the emperor eliminate traitors, or become a general and kill enemies for the country.
I also thought that if I traveled through time, I would use what I learned to help the imperial court expand its territory, and finally be favored by the emperor, become his consort, and live a carefree life from then on. "
"Haha..." Ying Zheng and others laughed.
After a while, Ying Zheng suppressed his smile and said, "If sir, you really come to Da Qin, I'm afraid it will be impossible for you to live a free and easy life."
"That's true." Qin An sighed and said, "When I get to the Qin Dynasty, I have only two choices. One is to wait until the death of the First Emperor. When the world is in chaos, I will rise up like everyone else.
I will bring over a group of Liu Bang and Xiang Yu's team in advance, and then use what I have learned to make a lot of money, and then recruit troops and conquer the world. "
"Didn't you say you don't want to be the emperor?" Li Si asked.
Qin An shrugged and said: "I really don't want to be the emperor, and one day I will be forced by the situation. However, after I become the emperor and develop the country, I will abolish the emperor system."
"What about the second option?" Ying Zheng asked.
Qin An smiled and said: "Of course, I must seek refuge with the First Emperor, directly explain my identity as a time traveler, and inform the First Emperor of everything that happened in history.
First of all, he cut off the First Emperor's dream of immortality, and also eradicated Zhao Gao and demoted Li Si's official position. "
Li Si was stunned and asked: "Why should we demote our ancestors from official positions?"
Li Yanran looked at Qin An in shock, why did he mention his father?
Qin An said: "Because Li Si is capable, but he is too power-minded. Although putting him in the position of prime minister can show his abilities to a greater extent.
However, if Li Si becomes hostile to me, wouldn't I be asking for trouble? "
Everyone's eyes turned to Li Si involuntarily, and Li Yanran also looked to her father.
Li Si immediately explained: "What if our ancestors are as awe-inspiring to you as I am?"
Ying Zheng also said: "Yes, sir, it is better to put Li Si's talents in the position of left prime minister. The First Emperor may not demote Li Si."
"No, then I can only take more precautions against Li Si." Qin An said, "Old Li, don't be angry. I did this for myself. You also know that your ancestors had a big responsibility for the demise of the Qin Dynasty. .
What's more important is that your ancestor killed Han Feizi for his official position. At that time, the First Emperor valued Han Feizi even more. "
Some people died, but not completely...
