Chapter 162: Fusang harvest, court meeting convened!

Style: Historical Author: It’s MarchWords: 3462Update Time: 24/02/20 13:51:23
"More than 7,000 hectares of fertile land are cultivated... There are more than 50,000 indigenous slaves, and 60,000 indigenous people are under their jurisdiction. There are 6,000 adult Qin people, six large and small copper mines, 12 large and small iron mines, and three large and small gold and silver mines. There are three cities here. Although they are relatively small, the walls and gates have been repaired, and the roads between the three cities have been paved.

There is a large port, but it needs to be repaired, a total of six small fishing ports, eight waterwheels, a total of 230 cattle, 312 war horses, a total of 70 pairs of armor, farming tools... Weapons.

A total of ninety-four kilograms of cash and twenty-one thousand kilograms of silver..." Jing was counting all the property data under Xu Fu's rule.

This is not unknown, but when I calculated it, I was shocked to find that the land under Xu Fu's jurisdiction was actually quite prosperous.

Xu Fu worked really hard to take root here. In just ten years, he cultivated more than 7,000 hectares of fertile land, and all kinds of mineral deposits were put into development.

There are also ready-made smelting sites.

Although the territory Xu Fu currently occupies is not too much, it has become a climate under Xu Fu's rule.

Ready-made cultural systems, farming technology, and smelting technology.

Compared with the indigenous people in the rest of Fusang who still exist in the form of tribes, Xu Fu obviously has an overwhelming advantage.

The local Fusang indigenous people are not yet civilized, and their farming technology is not advanced enough. They currently have a tribal survival system of half farming, half fishing and hunting.

There are tens of thousands of people in the large tribes and hundreds of small ones, scattered throughout Fusang.

Half farming, half fishing and hunting, the means of production are seriously insufficient, and the backward food acquisition methods are not enough to support their civilization, system, and culture.

The arrival of Xu Fu is a dimensionality reduction blow.

But it is obvious that Xu Fu really has the idea of ​​​​defining the eternal foundation of Ding.

Xu Fu did not blindly attack, plunder and conquer, but continued to develop while absorbing and integrating the Fusang indigenous people with the Qin people as the main body.

Xu Fu is taking a steady and steady approach. At least the infrastructure construction and development are completed.

Objectively speaking, this saved Da Qin more than just a little bit of time.

"But at present, most of the Fusang natives make a living by fishing and hunting. They live in no fixed places and are scattered around..." Jing rubbed his eyebrows.

"According to Xu Fu's estimate, the total number of indigenous people in Fusang will not exceed one million."

"It's a little short..." Jing shook his head. These few people are not even enough to build the Great Wall.

"But if these Fusang natives are used to support a military camp, it should be enough."

"But these things are enough for now..."

More than ninety kilograms of gold and more than twenty thousand kilograms of silver are already worth the value of these twenty ships from a cost perspective.

"It's time to announce the good news!" Jing raised his eyebrows!

Then he knelt down and started writing on the bamboo slips.

One copy is an official document. Xu Fu's head and the official document will be passed through the inn to the First Emperor to inform the world.

The other is a separate good news article written to Zhao Si.

This time Xu Fu was awarded the title. Although Zhao Si did not follow him to sea, Zhao Si played a crucial role.

The direction of the battle and Xu Fu's behavior were exactly the same as what Zhao Si said.

As for the heart attack plan, Qin Ge from all sides was obviously also the work of Zhao Si.

Even when Jing landed alone in the port and accepted the surrender alone, it was Zhao Si's name that he relied on.

Zhao Si's name is really useful on this island.

Zhao Si is very popular and has the greatest prestige among children. He also has good prestige and reputation among adults. He can participate in decision-making at a young age.

Because of this, Jing was able to go so smoothly.

When it comes to Jing, you may not know many people, and even if you do, you have to think about it, but when you mention Zhao Si, everyone knows who you are talking about.

Zhao Si took great credit for the success of the plan, and of course he had to share the joy of success with his brother.



And on the other side...

After the emperor's star was fluttering, Yingzhuo guarded his heart, and a stranger gave him a jade.

In three days, the city of Daqin has been filled with storms.

Today is the day when the First Emperor holds a court meeting to respond to the vision.

Zhao Si got up early and walked with Li Si on his bike.

"It's only been three days. Not to mention the Guanyin area, even Guanzhong is already full of storms. The enemy is inside..." Zhao Si chatted side by side with Li Si on the carriage.

"That's not to say... There must have been someone behind the scenes at the beginning who couldn't suppress it. It's really time to ferment, and the remnants of the Six Kingdoms can't reach Guanzhong yet." Li Si shook his head.

"Normally, when encountering this kind of situation, can we only hold a court meeting?"

"That's not the case... For example, the Great Wall Ballad was causing a stir for a while. Your Majesty once sent people to compose Qin songs to praise the Quartet, but the effect was not very good. The Great Wall Ballad and Afang Song were relatively big troubles, but they were just folk songs and were very popular. For a while, it is not possible to summon all the civil and military officials to hold a special court meeting, but this time is different. The emperor's star is swaying and the guardian's heart is confused, which has always been a major event." Li Si said seriously.

"Either the various schools or sects basically believe that a great disaster has occurred because the emperor's star is fluttering, and a strange person has presented the jade to the heart. Someone with ulterior motives is secretly causing trouble. If a court meeting is not held to respond, the people's hearts will not be able to settle down." Li Si He opened his mouth and answered.

"That's true... In this case, will this incident be used by others to attack Prime Minister Li?" Zhao Si asked.

"Huh?" Li Si was stunned for a moment.

"This is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster..." Li Si shook his head and looked at Zhao Si again.

"Are you worried that someone will take this opportunity to criticize me?"

Zhao Si nodded.

"Don't worry, the Prime Minister is not me. Besides, using celestial phenomena to criticize is somewhat far-fetched." Li Si shook his head and smiled, looking very optimistic.

Now is the Qin Dynasty, and Legalism is the root system of the Qin Dynasty.

As for Confucianism, it has been crushed by Li Si.

Now is not the time to dethrone hundreds of schools of thought and only focus on Confucianism, nor does it pay attention to the connection between heaven and man.

Otherwise, there will be visions from the sky, the emperor's star will be swaying, and the light will confuse the guard's heart. According to the induction of heaven and man, Prime Minister Li Si will have to apologize to the world.

Although people are currently in turmoil and public opinion is scattered, neither Li Si nor Zhao Si are very worried, mainly because they already know the way the First Emperor dealt with it.

And both Li Si and Zhao Si strongly agreed with the First Emperor's response.

Putting aside the destiny of gods and ghosts, this is the most effective and simplest way to crush rumors.

The First Emperor personally walked through every corner of the Qin Dynasty and asked them to prostrate themselves on the ground to admire the heroic appearance of the First Emperor. He didn't even need to say anything. He just wanted to let them see that the First Emperor was in the prime of life. Not only would he not die this year, but he was also in good health. People's hearts will naturally settle down.

Zhao Si and Li Si were talking and marching. In a short time, the carriage arrived at the palace.

The two got out of the car together and walked straight towards the main hall.

Li Si and Zhao Si arrived neither early nor late, and there were already twenty or thirty people in the hall at this moment.

"This grand tour of the world, touring all directions, can be used to check the relocation lists of various places." After Li Si stood still, he continued to discuss the relocation order with Zhao Si.

"The final list has to be drawn up personally. Nobles have in-laws all over the world. If the relocation order is announced rashly, just the list of relocations, I don't know how long it will take..." Zhao Si spread his hands.

"If Qin officials are used for local statistics, to be honest, I am also worried...I am afraid that if the relocation order is implemented, no one who should be moved will be moved, and all those who should not be moved will be moved." Zhao Si sighed.

"And to be honest with Mr. Li, my resume is too little, I don't have any clients, and I don't have any trustworthy people. Your Majesty doesn't think I'm mean and has entrusted me with important tasks. If Mr. Li has someone you can trust, you can recommend me. This time I’m going to patrol the world, and I also plan to select some people locally to use.”

Hearing this, Li Si showed a smile on his face.

Zhao Si has been kept in the dark so far...

This was a small tacit understanding between the First Emperor and Li Si.

"You really should have some handy people at your disposal." Li Si pondered for a moment and said seriously.

He was not trying to persuade Zhao Si to form a party for personal gain.

It is true that Zhao Si's political power is too innocent, as clean as a piece of white paper.

At the moment, Zhao Si relies entirely on the closeness and favor of the First Emperor, and has no base of his own. It is not impossible to do everything personally, but if he goes to the three ministers and nine ministers, how can he do everything himself?

"Being an official requires not only being able to do things, but also being able to employ people."

At present, Li Si and Zhao Si are really like-minded because of their common goal. Their personalities are not weird, and they are already familiar with each other.

"It's hard to say when it comes to hiring people, but I'm pretty good at judging people." Zhao Si smiled.

Li Si chuckled lightly when he heard this, but he just thought it was a joke and didn't take it to heart.

As the saying goes, thousand-mile horses often exist, but bole does not always exist!

How old is Zhao Sicai? What can you see accurately?

Is it possible that he can select talents who can manage the world and govern the country just like Bole selects a thousand-mile horse?

"I'm good at understanding people!" Faced with Li Si's disapproval, Zhao Si emphasized seriously.

"Chengchengcheng... Bole is the one who looks at horses, and Zhao Si is the one who looks at people!" Li Si waved his hand, then looked at the high platform, signaling Zhao Si to stand still.

While the two were chatting, all the civil and military officials were already present, not only the officials, but also the powerful officials from various factions.

Zhao Gao walked out from one side...

The ministers who were still whispering among each other quickly stood up and calmed down their voices.

"Your Majesty is here, be silent and salute!"

The rich voice fell, and the originally noisy court full of whispers suddenly became audible.

Afterwards, all the ministers bowed and saluted in unison.

The tall body of the First Emperor walked in from the side, sitting in front of the table.

The nine-shaped crown is scattered and illuminated, and the tassel of flowers is scattered in the wind.

"Gentlemen, stand up!"

Under the hanging beads, the First Emperor looked at the bowing ministers expressionlessly and spoke in a deep voice.

When all the ministers heard this, they all stood up!

Usually at this time, a minister will be responsible for proposing today's theme and making an introductory speech. Usually the left prime minister Li Si is responsible for this task.

Of course, everyone is well aware of the theme of today's court discussion.

The First Emperor looked around at the ministers with a solemn gaze.

"Three days ago..."

The First Emperor did not let Li Si speak for him.

"The emperor's star is swaying, the star is shining brightly to protect the heart, and the river god presents the jade."

"Nowadays, rumors are everywhere in Guanyin, Guanzhong, and even outside the Guan."

"All the common people say it"

"Zulong will die this year!"

The First Emperor sneered...

The First Emperor's smile did not ease the heavy atmosphere. On the contrary, the atmosphere in the court became more serious and heavy.

Unlike the previous Yun Danfengqing who was calm and composed, the First Emperor was clearly expressing his dissatisfaction.
