"Since the young master has been in the army, in order to ensure the victory of the war and not interfere with the young master's decision-making, I did not report it!"
"I also put this matter on hold. There is no response to Ba Qing and Wushi Luo!"
.......
Having said this, Meng Yi whispered, "How do you think the young master should respond to this matter?"
After listening to Meng Yi's words, Zhao Shu couldn't help but frown.
He was naturally not surprised by Ba Qing and Wushi Luo's keen sense of smell. After all, they were considered the best businessmen of this era.
What he was really worried about was Shanglin New City.
"Nowadays, the Xuchang Office, as well as all the masters and officials, all receive their salaries from the administration of internal history. Even if there is a problem with the Beidou Chamber of Commerce and the Nandou Chamber of Commerce, it will not affect the current operation of the academy."
"The only thing that will be affected is the ongoing projects and the subsidies for those students."
At this moment, Zhao Shu pondered for a while and said: "Xu servant, remember, no matter what, we must ensure that the subsidies for those students are paid in place."
"And those workers, as long as they are not conscripts or criminals, must be paid according to our promises."
"If the Beidou Chamber of Commerce and the Nandou Chamber of Commerce are really unsustainable, some projects can be suspended."
"The situation is in our hands and we can take our time, but reputation is very important and cannot be ruined by impatience."
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, Meng Yi also quickly wrote down that before that, although he had no refutation of Zhao Shu's decision, he had some doubts in his heart.
After all, the Qin Dynasty has not yet unified the world, and the army's conquests require terrible money and food. Under such circumstances, is it worthwhile to carry out large-scale construction projects?
However, judging from the chaos in Han Dynasty and the officials provided to Qin in Shanglin New City over the years, he believed that Zhao Shu's decision was extremely wise.
It was with this understanding that Meng Yi and Zhang Cang took the official office of Xu Palace more seriously.
They all know that Shanglin New City is the future of Great Qin.
Seeing the two of them deep in thought, Zhao Shu smiled and said, "Next, I, Great Qin, will destroy Chu."
"The matters concerning Shanglin New City can only be left to Xu Pu."
Hearing this, Meng Yi raised his head and said solemnly, "Don't worry, young master, Meng Yi will ensure that Shanglin New City is completely safe."
"Um!"
Nodding slightly, Zhao Shu looked at Zhang Cang and said, "I suggest to the king that Zhang Cang go south to the Chu region and take up residence in Chen County."
"Coordinate logistics for the Great Qin warriors and ensure continuous food supply!"
"Does Xu Zheng have the confidence to complete this matter?"
Hearing Zhao Shu's words, Zhang Cang was a little surprised. He looked up at Zhao Shu, confused, and said: "Sir, according to the news, it should be Lord Changping who is in charge of Chen at this moment?"
"Well, there is no one in charge of Nanyang County. The king has transferred Lord Changping back. General Neishiteng needs to be in charge of Yingchuan County to assist in the management of Su Neishi and Changshi in repairing the gap."
"Therefore, there is no one in charge of Chen County, so I recommended Xu Zheng to the king!"
Hearing this, Zhang Cang had doubts in his eyes and turned to Zhao Shu, saying: "Young Master, I am just a newcomer in this aspect."
"The preface servant should be better at it than the minister!"
"Haha, the Servant is also the Commander-in-Chief. The king needs it, and the government offices also need the Servant to coordinate."
Zhao Shu unscrewed the water bag and took a sip. He shook his head with a smile and said, "Therefore, Xu Pu cannot go south."
"In this battle, our Great Qin warriors will go south, and the number will not be less than 500,000. If we include the civilians, it will reach a terrifying million."
"I'm not worried about the others."
"Those who have the ability to do this need to stay in Xianyang. After thinking about it, those who have the ability can also go south. There are and only those who are in order."
At this moment, Zhang Cang nodded heavily and said to Zhao Shu: "Young Master has shown favor to Cang. Since the King needs it, the Young Master needs it, and the Qin Dynasty needs it, Zhang Cang should go there."
"Um!"
Nodding slightly, Zhao Shu turned to Zhang Cang and said, "After going south, be more wary of the Chu people. Chen County is the key to our Great Qin going south."
"As long as Chen County is stable, our Da Qin can advance, attack, retreat or defend!"
"promise."
Seeing Zhang Cang nod, Zhao Shu changed the subject and said, "I know that you are good at arithmetic, and you also know a little bit about various schools of thought."
"He is a learned man, and it is most appropriate to stay in the official office of Xu Palace."
"However, the Qin court now lacks talents. Under such circumstances, they can only be used urgently."
"This time you go south, be more careful about money and food. When I, the Qin Dynasty, destroy Chu, you will go north to Xianyang and take charge of the Su Nei History Office."
"ah?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Cang couldn't help being stunned, and couldn't help but look at Zhao Shu: "Sir, I am in charge of the official office of governing Su Neishi, so what do I do by governing Su Neishi?"
"The king plans to build a canal in Chu, and then capture the land of Baiyue. He needs to govern Su Neishi and take charge of Chu."
"After all, when it comes to water affairs, no one can compare with Amonai Shi!"
.......
Zhao Shu did not hide anything about Zhang Cang and Meng Yi. After all, they were both high-ranking officials in Da Qin and held the same position as Jiuqing.
As Lang Zhongling, it was only a matter of time before Meng Yi found out about this matter. As the protagonist of this matter, Zhang Cang will also know when he goes south.
He informed the two of them in advance, just to prepare Zhang Cang's mind, so that Zhang Cang would not panic when the king's edict was issued.
Da Qin needs stability.
This requires a smooth handover between Zhang Cang and Zheng Guo to avoid unnecessary troubles.
Moreover, in a sense, Zhang Cang can be regarded as his confidant.
This can also be regarded as his uncle.
Their interests are closely related to Great Qin's, so there is no possibility of collaborating with the enemy or leaking information.
Although he knew in his heart that the two of them were tight-lipped, Zhao Shu still spoke up and warned, "This matter has not yet been issued by the king's edict."
"Only a few people like me know it, don't spread it out!"
"promise."
Meng Yi and Zhang Cang nodded.
They both have their own ideas in mind.
Meng Yi wears many hats, and he knows in his heart that once Zhang Cang leaves, the burden on him will be even heavier.
As for Zhang Cang, his heart is even more complicated. He is just a prefacer, but whether he is in charge of Chen County or in charge of the internal history of Su, this is an improvement.
It can be said that this is Zhao Shu's support for him.
After all, the order is definitely not as good as the county governor and the internal history.
This means that when he comes back from Chen County, he will have the same status as Meng Yi at this moment, and he will be the same Jiuqing.
He is about to be promoted.
However, at this moment, Zhang Cang felt extremely solemn. He was responsible for coordinating the food, clothing, housing and transportation of millions of people, and also had to control nearly 400,000 to 500,000 people.
This tests a person's ability.
This means that as long as he goes south, the things he needs to worry about will increase infinitely, which is definitely not comparable to the official office of Xu Palace at the moment.
Zhang Cang couldn't help but feel his scalp numb when he thought of this.
