First of all, let me take a leave of absence~
In fact, I haven't been in a good state these past few days. I think it's allergic rhinitis. Every morning when I wake up, my nose is stuffy and my nose bleeds when I rub it...
I feel like I'm going to suffer from a lack of blood...
This is really a painful thing orz
Today happens to be the end of the month, plus it’s my birthday on the lunar calendar, so I’m taking a day off today to have a good rest and prepare for the upcoming climax in a few days. I hope I can finish the first climax of this book. Let everyone enjoy watching it.

The following is the end of month summary.
First let’s talk about the update.
Today is the end of the month. This month plus two days off today, a total of more than 180,000 words have been updated. This is equivalent to maintaining the rhythm of six days a day without any chaos.
The second volume will be opened on the 5th of this month, which is the spring volume of the first year of the First Emperor.
The reason for choosing this volume is actually because of the content of this volume. Chen Ke finally accepted his life in Da Qin, accepted "Da Qin", and began to gradually integrate into Da Qin.
He began to gradually change himself during this year, moving slowly and leisurely like a cat.
Even though every step he took was a step of the times, making the entire Qin Dynasty and even the entire world turbulent, he himself was still so slow.
The development of new farm tools, the previously proposed road guide and household registration system were also put into practice. By the way, some of the arrangements for Confucianism and the Six Kingdoms in the first volume were connected together, and then a decisive attack on Xiang Yu and the nobles of the Six Kingdoms was formed. They were driven to a dead end.
County and county officials from all over the country are gradually in place. The new young people who came out of Baijia Palace and received patriotic education love this land as much as Chen Ke.
They will grow on this piece of land and then take care of this piece of land.
The implementation of the general sentencing system has also given the county guards another "lock", so that even if they become corrupted in the future, they will not be able to show off so wantonly.
After that, the rotation system will be gradually promoted to give county guards a "lock".
The official system of Great Qin also began to change, and a deformation of the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System appeared. Another system was far from the original Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System, and even the original intention was different.
Among the Six Kingdoms, Xiang Yu had been forced to have no choice but to rise up, but Liu Peigong, who was hiding in the dark, didn't know what he would do.
After rising up, who can follow Xiang Yu?
This is another question.
In addition, another issue in this volume is foreign conquest.
It is mainly manifested in Fuso Island, which is now renamed "Qinnu Island". As for why it was named like this, everyone should be very clear.
And by occupying this place, you can continue to move west or east in the future.
The end of this volume should end with the end of Xiang Yu and the end of the first year of the First Emperor.
"Spring" is more like a symbol.
Spring is the season when all things revive and everything sprouts, and this is exactly what Chen Ke loves for Da Qin at this time.
If the first volume is about "integration" and the "ideal country", then this volume is about the "germination" of all the things that Chen Ke brought to this world.
Just like a seed, planted in the ground, it finally sprouted, revealing green seedlings.
This is what I want to express.
Therefore, in the first and second volumes, they are not written from the perspective of the protagonist, but from the perspective of the group portraits.
In the country of Great Qin, especially in this era, many talented people appeared and showed off their charm wantonly.
Whether they are people from the Six Kingdoms, people from Great Qin, or others.
They are all real people, not characters in my writing. Instead of highlighting the invincibility and charm of the protagonist, in this period, that is, in the first and second volumes, it is these people who are more attractive.
Like the First Emperor.
He cannot have a single personality, such as domineering or majestic.
He is sweeping across the world and powerful, but at heart he is still a father who wants to make his son better.
He is a middle-aged man who has his own friends, confidants, and acquaintances, and wants to drink every day.
He is an ordinary emperor who wants to live forever, is obsessed with immortality, and secretly wants the method of immortality.
Such as Fusu.
Does he have only one side?
Are there really only young men who are timid, cowardly, and too pedantic?
No.
I don't think so.
Just like each of us, everyone is different.
He is a child who is filial to his father, a reliable brother, and an eldest son who is considerate of the people.
He is a student who has been ruined by Confucianism, but is changing.
Is a growing person.
Such as Xiang Yu.
Is he the Overlord of Western Chu?
yes.
But is he just the overlord of Western Chu?
Absolutely not.
He is a person who can resist his uncle, a person who can rise up, a person who can fight, and a person whose mentality will collapse after losing the battle.
He is an ordinary person.
He is also an extraordinary person.
There are many others.
For example, Wang Jian, Li Si, Wang Guan, Feng Quji, Feng Jie, etc.
None of them is a single figure.
They are complex people.
I am very ambitious and want to create a distinct image.
Maybe this is not done very well, but I feel that there are at least three characters I wrote that satisfy me.
One is Li Si. I feel that the "King of Volume" image I set for him has already emerged on the page. Although there is not much ink, this point is emphasized at all times.
The second is Fusu. From being pedantic at the beginning, to laziness at the end, to being able to think proactively and fish in the end.
The third is Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng was a very ordinary person and an extraordinary emperor.
Maybe Ying Zheng's portrayal is not very good, but it is already good, for me.
Therefore, the protagonists of these two volumes are not so much Chen Ke, but rather these star-studded characters. We have returned to the past, but it is impossible for us to conceal their personality charm.
The protagonist is like a dark thread that gently moves these people through some actions and changes, and then creates new changes and connects them together.
The time when the protagonist should really shine should be in the next volume.
This is a problem with the plot, followed by a problem with the writing style.
My writing style is probably not very good. I just like to write about things I like. I will try to read more books and improve my writing style.
The writing is not good, probably because I read too little.
I was favored by God. In the past eighteen years, I liked reading very much and read a lot of books, so I was able to write something.
But similarly, in the past six years, after I went to college and worked, I rarely read books anymore. When I did, I only read cookies, because life was too bitter...
But I will pick up my hobby of reading again.
Try to improve your writing skills.
Finally, let’s talk about the update plan for next month.
It is still the first, third, and fifth updates totaling 6k, and the second, fourth, and sixth updates total 6k. We strive to achieve 10,000 per day on Sunday, at least eight per day.
Then it’s time off.
The early stage of this book is about to end, and the remaining middle stage is very long, very long, very long, probably more than two million words... The middle stage is about four or five volumes, so in order to ensure a stable I write this well so that I don’t overestimate or collapse, so starting from next month, I will take two days off every month.
It is certain that I will have one day off next month, it is the 24th, my birthday on the Gregorian calendar, and it is also a birthday that really needs to be celebrated.
The other day should be at the beginning of the month, around the 10th, right?
Just pinch it like this.
Gratitude~
The word "part-time job" comes from fishing time.
