"promise."
Watching Yaoyao leave, Zhao Shu's eyes were full of solemnity. In his study, there were things he had written these days.
Naturally it cannot flow out.
Perhaps those bamboo slips themselves would not bring much impact, but combined with his identity and the blessing of two, they would have a huge impact.
It even put the Qin court into an embarrassing situation.
Now that the Qin Dynasty has not yet swept the world and completed the unification of the Central Plains, there are some things that cannot be revealed, so he has to take extra precautions.
A moment later, Li Xu drove over, saluted Zhao Shu, and said, "I have seen the young master!"
"Brother, do you have any experience in driving chariots?" Zhao Shu smiled at Li Xu and said, "There is a shortage of people in my house. The former guard leader was transferred to the position of lieutenant of Yingchuan County, so the house has been lacking a driver."
"Brother, please accept your grievance for a period of time. During this period, you should also think carefully about which path you should take in the future."
"promise."
Nodding, Li Xu smiled and said: "I have some experience in driving cars. Young Master and Miss Yaoyao get in the car."
Li Xu was not dissatisfied.
Although he was Li Si's son, he was not the eldest son, and he also knew that his situation did not conflict with Zhao Shu's arrangements.
Moreover, as a driver, he can always be by Zhao Shu's side and learn from Zhao Shu.
Besides, Zhao Shu also said just now that the last person who also served as a driver was Tie Qi, and now he is a lieutenant of Yingchuan County.
This means that as long as he works hard, once Zhao Shu feels that he is capable enough and releases him, he will at least start as a county lieutenant.
Such a start is much better than that of his eldest brother Li You.
You must know that Li You was one of Qin Wangzheng's doctors. He was a disciple of Qin Wang and a candidate for Qin's courtiers.
It was precisely because of these that he naturally did not feel aggrieved at all by driving the car for Zhao Shu.
Li Xu knew that driving a car for Zhao Shu would never have been his turn if it weren't for Zhao Shu's relationship with his old father Li Si.
"drive......."
The chariot rumbled towards the direction of Zhangtai Palace. Zhao Shu held the volume of "Mencius: Wholeheartedness" in his hand and felt infinite emotion in his heart.
After coming to Da Qin for so long, he found that he had become more and more like an old Qin person. Almost all the marks on his body that belonged to later generations had disappeared.
If it weren't for the memories and various epoch-making knowledge in his mind, he would have forgotten that he was a descendant.
"Young Master, Xianyang Royal City has arrived!" The chariot stopped at the carriage yard of Xianyang Royal City, and Yaoyao's voice came, interrupting Zhao Shu's thoughts.
"Um!"
After suppressing his thoughts, Zhao Shu got off the carriage and said to Yaoyao and Li Xu, "Yaoyao, you and Brother Shi are waiting here."
"promise."
Zhao Shu walked into the royal city, boarded the royal chariot and went straight to Zhangtai Palace.
"At the end of the day, I will pay my respects to the king. The king has been here for ten thousand years, and the Qin Dynasty has been for ten thousand years——!"
Entering Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Shu quickly bowed to Qin Wangzheng. Although he came often and became a frequent visitor to Zhangtai Palace, he did not dare to neglect the due etiquette.
"Come when you're here. From now on, be less polite and keep your respect in your heart. There's no need to say it out loud."
Qin Wangzheng smiled helplessly, scolded Zhao Shu, and said: "You are my son-in-law, and I married Yang Zi to you. Logically speaking, it is not an exaggeration for you to call me father."
Hearing this, Zhao Shu smiled and shook his head: "Your Majesty, etiquette cannot be discarded. Even the eldest son must salute every time!"
"Not to mention the last general!"
He ignored Zhao Shu. King Qin knew clearly that talking to Zhao Shu about this was just useless wrangling.
No matter how earnestly he said it, Zhao Shu would do the same thing next time without changing it at all.
So, he spoke directly and said: "You came today, but the matter between Beidou Chamber of Commerce and Nandou Chamber of Commerce has been resolved?"
"I heard that Ba Qing and Wushi Luo came here just to see you!"
Zhao Shu was not surprised at all that Qin Wangzheng knew about Ba Qing and Wushi Luo.
If Qin Wangzheng didn't know about it, he would be worried and afraid.
"Your Majesty, a product has been developed in the hive, which will eventually be called perfume. It just so happened that Ba Qing and Wushi Luo arrived."
"They are willing to cooperate with the Beidou Chamber of Commerce and the Nandou Chamber of Commerce, and they are willing to pay a sum of money in advance."
"The general thought for a moment, then agreed and asked them to negotiate with the Beidou Chamber of Commerce and the Nandou Chamber of Commerce."
........
Zhao Shu never concealed anything about the government of King Qin. Since King Qin asked about the government, he told everything in detail.
Hearing Zhao Shu's words, Qin Wangzheng's expression changed slightly: "You mean, Ba Qing, Wushi Luo and others have recovered their costs in the last cooperation?"
"Um!"
Zhao Shu nodded and said in a relaxed tone: "The general asked about it, and the two told him that there was a slight surplus."
"It can just in time alleviate the embarrassment of Beidou Chamber of Commerce and Nandou Chamber of Commerce, so as not to delay Shanglin New City for too long."
Although Qin Wangzheng rarely worries about Shanglin New City, he also has some understanding of the economy.
Naturally, he knew how huge the money and food needed to build Shanglin New City according to Zhao Shu's ideas would be.
You must know that when Duke Xiao and Lord Shang built Xianyang, they used the capital from the court and cooperated with major merchants, which lasted for several years.
What's more, the current Shanglin New City is basically maintained by the Beidou Chamber of Commerce and the Nandou Chamber of Commerce.
Even though Zhao Shu is a master of making money, compared with a court, he is still not good enough.
As soon as he thought about this, Qin Wangzheng said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid it's hard to sustain the fragrance just by relying on it, right?"
Not only Zhao Shu has high hopes for Shanglin New City, but also Qin Wangzheng attaches great importance to Shanglin New City.
"After this period of relief, the money and food for soap and perfume will be enough to maintain it. Even if it cannot be maintained, we will not be in the current embarrassing situation."
At this moment, Zhao Shu smiled helplessly: "This time, the general was negligent. Zhang Cang and Meng Yi were too confident in the general."
"I feel relieved when I hear you say that!" At this point, Qin Wangzheng changed the subject and said, "Isn't this the reason why you entered the palace today?"
Such a trivial matter is not worth Zhao Shu's trip to Zhangtai Palace.
Hearing this, Zhao Shu took out the volume of "Mencius' Heart" and placed it on Qin Wangzheng's desk: "Your Majesty, this is the classic book selected by the last general."
"It is used to guide the eldest son to take a new path. This matter will be resolved by the end of the general. The eldest son may not take it seriously. Therefore, the end of the general..."
Qin Wangzheng opened the bamboo slip and read the content on it: "He who knows his nature knows his nature. If he knows his nature, he knows the heaven."
"Preserve one's mind and nourish one's nature, that's why you serve heaven. If you die young, your life span will be short, and you should cultivate one's body in time for it, that's why one's destiny is established."
"...."
"Is this Mencius's chapter on dedication?"
