The co-authored system is a gold-eating beast. Everything you do requires gold! He will always pay the same price, which is more evil than the capitalists of later generations!
Ying Xuan, who just sent a message to call back General Zhang Liang, where can he find ten pieces of gold?
He could only watch the number of draws helplessly but couldn't move.
It seems that the only way to go to Quge is to see if the money you make these days is enough!
Ying Xuan endured the restlessness in his heart and stopped looking at the system.
Not far away, Ying Zheng saw that his rice was spitting out, and thought he was too excited to go to court! He poured cold water on him without hesitation.
"You can only listen in court, and you are not allowed to say a word. If you have any ideas, tell me later in court!"
Ying Xuan's mind was filled with drawing cards, how could he still care about the court meeting? Oh absentmindedly.
After eating, the two of them walked towards the Purple Gold Hall where the meeting was held.
When Ying Xuan appeared in front of the officials, there was a sudden uproar.
"Why did Mr. Yingxuan go to court?"
"Is it possible that His Majesty is planning to establish a crown prince?"
"I don't know! There are no signs!"
It wasn't until Ying Zheng coughed that everyone became quiet.
Ying Zheng did not explain why Ying Xuan came, and with his intimidating power, he did not need to explain to anyone. He just started to go to court with a cold face.
The court meeting prioritized the urgency and importance of the incident, so the Baiyue War was the first thing to happen.
At this moment, Li Si was already standing where Wang Wan was before, and he walked out first.
"Your Majesty, the Baiyue war is advancing slowly. Due to the complicated terrain, the army only occupied Yangyue, Yuyue and Wuyue tribes seven days ago!"
Ying Xuan was stunned, Wu Yue? Wouldn’t it have already reached Shanghai?
This is not slow at all, one-fifth of Baiyue has been captured in just a few days!
But Ying Zheng snorted coldly.
"In the last attack, tens of thousands of troops had exhausted the elite Baiyue troops."
"Now that the 400,000-strong army is divided into three groups, we only need to advance quickly to occupy it. Is it still so slow?"
Lisheng lowered his head immediately.
"Your Majesty, because there are too many waterways, it is difficult for the army to pass through and they need to constantly look for roads and bridges. Some places even have to be passed by boat! It is really difficult to increase the speed!"
No one could do anything about it, Ying Zheng frowned but had no choice.
Li Si saw that Ying Zheng was no longer pursuing responsibility, so he reported the next incident.
"Two days ago, there was another rebellion on the south bank of Huai River in Jiujiang County, with a number of thousands of people! The military camp in Daze Township has sent thousands of people to suppress it!"
Ying Zheng leaned forward slightly when he heard this, his eyes as sharp as needles.
"What's the reason?"
Li Si slightly raised his head.
"It was said that there was an epidemic, and local officials took hundreds of patients to the Li (li) for isolation in accordance with Qin law."
"But it happened that some of them were dissatisfied with the local government, so they took the opportunity to cause chaos and lure the patients and their families to rebel together."
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Check it out, I want the list of people behind it!"
Li Sigan swallowed. The First Emperor never believed in coincidences, and his most taboo thing was rebellion! Every matter must be dealt with personally, and I don’t know how many people will die now.
What was reported after that were small chaos in various places, and difficulties in issuing government orders and various problems emerged one after another.
Ying Zheng had a headache. He knew that these were all related to the old tribes of the Six Kingdoms.
But these ministers in the court were also deeply involved with the old clan.
Everyone only talks about the riots, without mentioning the influence behind the old tribes of the Six Nations, and the conclusion is nothing more than asking the local county magistrate to deal with it quickly and not to delay causing chaos!
Finally, there are various people's livelihood issues related to scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. Ying Xuan was very excited at first, but he started to doze off after a while.
It wasn't until Zhao Gao shouted "Dismiss the court!" that he suddenly woke up.
He stared around in confusion. The ministers left one after another, and Ying Zheng did not call him when they left.
Only Li Si smiled kindly at him for the first time.
Ying Xuan rolled his eyes at him unceremoniously, turned around and walked out of the palace.
In view of Li Si's history of exquisite self-interest, Ying Xuan did not rely on his ideas at all.
What's more, now that there is a sage seeker, I can't even look down on him!
Even though his achievements had a huge impact on future generations, Ying Xuan had no intention of recruiting him.
Ying Xuan will never tolerate a subordinate who can backstab him at any time.
…
The journey was uneventful, and Ying Xuan came to Quge again. He was shocked when he checked the account book at the counter.
After two months of operation, excluding the money originally left on the books, the profit actually reached 20 gold! Equivalent to a profit of ten gold per month.
Ying Xuan was a little surprised.
"Are those gadgets I invented so popular?"
He asked the old steward, but was given a blank look by the old man.
"This is the best area in Xianyang City and the most prosperous place in Daqin. Now you don't even have to pay rent. Even if you don't have something you invented, what can he do without making money?"
Ying Xuan, who was ridiculed, couldn't keep his face and ruthlessly took away all the profits.
"Let you also feel the dangers of capitalists!"
Unexpectedly, the old steward didn't care and sneered.
"The monthly payment has been paid long ago, and the raw materials that should be purchased have been purchased. No one will care about you even if your account is bald!"
The corner of Ying Xuan's mouth twitched, he couldn't feel the fun of squeezing employees at all, and was full of frustration. Even so, he still did not touch the remaining capital.
After all, this is a business, not a small business, and he doesn't want this long-term way to make money to collapse because of his willful operations.
After taking twenty gold, Ying Xuan walked to the backyard with satisfaction.
There are large pots all over the yard. Some pots are filled with bark, some with straw, and some with bamboo.
The old steward greeted a group of workers, fished out the boiled materials, and then used a wooden hammer to chisel them into a pulp. After chiseling into a pulp, he poured it into water and boiled it again. It was circulated many times until it was almost a paste, and then it was filtered with a white cloth and set aside.
Ying Xuan was surprised at the old steward's intelligence, but he didn't expect him to come over with a piece of almost pure yellow and white paper.
"Young Master, what do you think? This kind of paper can meet your requirements for enlightening the world!"
Ying Xuan couldn't help but exclaimed.
"How did you make it?"
The old steward looked at the shocked Ying Xuan and laughed.
"Using bamboo to make the color will be much whiter. This method was reminded by the person in the room!"
Ying Xuan was immediately surprised. There is no record in history that Zhang Liang also made achievements in inventions and creations!
He gently unlocked the door to the side room and looked inside.
But they saw that the whole room was littered with messy papers, and over and over again were the four sentences of Hengqu written by Ying Xuan last time!
Zhang Liang stood in front of the table with disheveled hair.
Sunlight shone into the house through the open door, pushing Ying Xuan's shadow in front of him.
It happens to be reflected in those four sentences.
For a moment, those four sentences fell on Ying Xuan's shadow, and they seemed to fit together inexplicably!
Zhang Liang was stunned and smiled bitterly like he was crazy.
The silent smile slowly evolved into laughter, until it took up his entire face and he looked at Ying Xuan who came forward.
Ying Xuan hesitated for a moment and then started laughing.
He laughed with her just to distract from the embarrassment of locking the other person into the room.
At this moment, Zhang Liang finally realized that he was not the one who wrote these four sentences. No matter how obsessed he was, he would never be able to achieve the magnanimity contained in these words.
