"promise."
Nodding, Zhao Gao retreated to the porch and said no more.
He knew how complicated this matter was, and he wanted to have a relationship with Zhao Shu, but he didn't want to get involved in the Hidden Palace.
Because he himself came from the hidden palace.
Because of this, Zhao Gao has always been very keen to avoid this matter. As long as it is a matter of the Hidden Palace, he will not speak if he can.
Especially now that Zhao Shu has become the master of the Hidden Palace, he is even more cautious in his words and actions.
In Zhao Gao's view, there are many opportunities for him to build a good relationship with Zhao Shu, and he does not want to offend Qin Wangzheng because of this matter.
Zhao Gao had a clear idea in his heart. He knew clearly that the politics of the King of Qin were the basis for his foothold in the Qin Dynasty, not the skills of the prince.
.......
Half an hour later, Gai Nie's voice sounded outside the door. Zhao Shu quickly stood up and walked out of the barrel, then dressed neatly, opened the door and walked out.
"Shu has met you sir!"
After the medicinal bath, Zhao Shu's mouth still hurt a little, but he became much more energetic and felt full of strength.
"Come here today. Your body is not suitable for taking a lot of supplements. Originally, I prepared a medicinal diet." Gai Nie smiled at Zhao Shu and said, "When the time comes, I will have someone deliver it to your house. You can keep it." Eat it at night.”
"Then go back to the house, don't practice any more, and continue tomorrow."
"promise."
After nodding, Zhao Shu said goodbye to Gai Nie and left. He has a lot of things to do now. He went to Linyuan to recruit workers today and he was in charge.
Naturally, he couldn't stay in Gai Nie's house for a long time.
"Tie Qi returns to his house."
"promise."
Half an hour later, Zhao Shu returned to the house and saw Yaoyao coming: "Palace Master, someone from Zhangtai Palace is here to let you into the palace."
"Um!"
Nodding slightly, Zhao Shu looked towards Yaoyao and said, "I want to know the situation of today's recruitment, everything is detailed."
"Go find Yinwei and ask him to find out, and then wait for me at home!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Yaoyao turned and left. At this moment, Zhao Shu looked a little helpless. He could probably guess that the reason why Qin Wangzheng came to him was most likely because of the recruitment of workers in the Hidden Palace.
However, he had just returned from Gai Nie's house and knew nothing about this matter. He didn't even know as much as King Qin Zheng.
"Tie Qi, prepare the car."
"Master, prepare hot water and clean clothes!"
"promise."
When he came out of Gai Nie's house, he was smelling of medicinal herbs. Naturally, he couldn't take it with him to Zhangtai Palace.
Although Qin Wangzheng valued him extremely, Zhao Shu had never made any mistakes in this matter of respect.
This is his respect for Qin Wangzheng.
After taking a hot bath, Zhao Shu changed into clean clothes and headed towards Zhangtai Palace.
He didn't think too much about the Hidden Palace. He knew in his heart that it was too late now.
Moreover, Qin Wangzheng knew his whereabouts clearly. In this case, if he summoned him, there would be no big problem.
.......
"The last general, Zhao Shu, pays homage to the king. The king has lived for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty has lived for ten thousand years——!" Entering Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Shu quickly saluted the king of Qin and said.
"coming?"
Qin Wangzheng smiled when he saw Zhao Shu and motioned for Zhao Shu to take a seat: "Why, today ends so early?"
"It seems that sir dislikes your qualifications!"
Facing Qin Wangzheng's joke, Zhao Shu smiled and did not answer. He didn't know the specific details.
Maybe there really is the reason mentioned by Qin Wangzheng.
After sitting down, Zhao Shu quickly raised his hands to Li Si and said, "Shu has met the teacher!"
"Young master, you don't need to be polite."
Li Si returned the favor with a smile. He was very satisfied with Zhao Shu's etiquette.
No matter where he was, Zhao Shu gave him respect. In Li Si's opinion, this was the most rare thing.
After Zhao Shu sat down and the attendant poured tea, Qin Wangzheng just spoke and said: "The Hidden Palace has started recruiting workers. At this rate, we can recruit 30,000 workers today."
"The hundred thousand people you need can be recruited in less than four days."
"I'm not worried about this matter. When I see you today, I want to ask you, can the Hidden Palace afford such a large amount of money and food?"
"You are a smart person and you should know what kind of backlash you will suffer once you make a promise but fail to keep it."
.......
"Sir, what the king said is true. One hundred thousand people, just taking care of the food, consume a huge amount in a day."
At this moment, Li Si also smiled bitterly and said, "Moreover, you have to pay them wages. In this way, the amount will be even greater."
Li Si's face was full of worry.
Zhao Shu is his disciple, so he naturally cares about him very much.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, Teacher, you don't have to worry."
"I have calculated this matter, and there should be no problem with the Hidden Palace taking over the responsibility. For this matter, we cannot recruit corvees according to the previous method."
"Yin Gongfang and Shanglin Garden need to be built, but the Qin land cannot be allowed to cause chaos. The old Qin people are the pillars of our great Qin."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I know this well. If the Hidden Palace is short of money and food, I will release sugar."
"When the time comes, we will quickly withdraw a sum of money and food to ensure the construction of Shanglin Garden."
"Your Majesty, the construction of Shanglin Garden is a big project, and it cannot be completed overnight."
"We continue to recruit workers, not just these 100,000, this is an opportunity to let the people all over the world see our sincerity."
"The next time we recruit workers, they will always flock here. Money and food are all external things. You can still earn them if you don't have them."
"The general is not good at anything else, but he is good at the merchant's art."
Hearing this, King Qin did not show his political appearance, but he was indeed relieved in his heart.
He was afraid that if Zhao Shu promised to go out, Hidden Palace would not be able to afford it, and he would have to draw it from the treasury.
The money and food from the Great Qin treasury must be given priority to satisfy the great Qin warriors in the war to destroy the country. They cannot be used by other people unless it is a last resort.
With thoughts swirling in his mind, Ying Zheng turned to Zhao Shu and said word by word: "It's good that you have an idea in mind. This number is so large that even the inner treasury of this person cannot support it, and the money and food in the national treasury cannot be touched lightly."
........
Complaints about Qin Wangzheng.
Zhao Shu also didn't expect that he knew that Qin Wangzheng had just taken away his 20 million yuan not long ago.
If it was said that Li Si had no money and could not afford this expenditure, he would believe it.
But he didn't believe in Qin Wangzheng at all.
It's just that Qin Wangzheng has said this, so he can't say anything.
He had no choice but to nod his head and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, all the money and food will come out of the Hidden Palace. After all, we are building the Hidden Palace. It makes no sense to let the King's inner treasury come out!"
"As for what is not enough, it will eventually come out!"
"However, the Beidou Chamber of Commerce's money and resources will be invested in the construction of Shanglin Academy and other projects."
