Daqin Fusu: It is difficult to start the battle

Chapter 136
In order to develop the plantation economy with peace of mind, there must be a stable external condition and cheap labor.

The stable external conditions are easy to understand.

And cheap labor?

During this period, the population of the Qin State was no more than 500 million. Excluding the old, weak, women and children, there was not much labor force available.

Therefore, Fusu wants to engage in a bloody "triangular trade" before the emergence of human rights organizations.

As for Bloody Who?

Naturally, it is those places where there are three crops a year, and just a few seeds in the field can feed a large number of people.

Therefore, for the development of the Lingnan area, he specially approved the establishment of an industrial park near Yangshanguan in Shaofu, and the construction of iron, cement, glass and other workshops.

Iron smelting and cement can be used to speed up the development of the Pearl River Delta and the Guilin County Basin.

The glass is used to fill the distilled rum, which is used to exchange slaves with the tribes of the Indochina Peninsula.

It's a pity that Southeast Asia has always been rich in jewelry, so glass can only be sold as a tool, and cannot be exchanged for the land of the aborigines like European colonists.

Of course, in order to check and balance the border areas, the current steelmaking process will not be spread to the outside world.

Moreover, he transferred the Yueqi Battalion of tens of thousands of people back to Xianyang, which is precisely to maintain military pressure on Nanhai County, to strengthen the weak branches, which is a policy that any unified dynasty will pursue.

After a while, Ying Yinman walked up to Fusu with the sand table, reciting "Yan Li Pian" while writing and drawing crookedly on the sand table.

"Well, that's right, let's go play with Chi Meiren!" Fu Su nodded and drove little Lolita out.

Little Lolita is not stupid. After all, she is Qin Shihuang's biological daughter. It is only because of the doting of Tian Ji and others that she is now like this.

As for asking her to play with Qi Rui'er, it was because Qi Rui'er didn't need to attend the bed and always stayed alone in the vacant room, so Ying Yinman always slept with Qi Rui'er, greening her own brother...

"Hey, it would be great if the Empress Dowager was still here!" Looking at Ying Yinman who was bouncing away, Ziying sighed involuntarily.

The empress dowager he was talking about refers to Fusu's mother, the daughter of Chu. Because the first emperor changed the rules and did not grant posthumous posthumous titles, the emperor used the second and third emperors to distinguish them, and the empress dowager was collectively called the empress dowager.

The first empress dowager was the mother of the first emperor, Zhao Ji.

"Yes, but if she is here, I'm afraid this little devil will become even more lawless!"

Fusu complained, saying that according to the tradition of the Qin State, the first thing he, the second emperor, did after succeeding to the throne was to have a fight with his mother-in-law before he could successfully grasp the power of the government!

After Fusu chatted with Ziying for a few words, Han Rang came out of the door and said, "Your Majesty, the left and right prime ministers and ministers are waiting outside the palace."

Fu Su nodded slightly: "Is everything I want ready?"

Han Rang bowed and said: "The slave has been sent to the palace overnight."

"In that case, let's drive to Qinzheng Palace!" Fusu stood up, stretched his waist and said to Ziying: "You also go with me!"

"Here!"

A moment later, Fusu swung his sleeves and entered the Hall of Qinzheng proudly.

After Feng Quji, Wei Liao and others bowed to him, they took off their shoes and entered one after another.

During this period, only the emperor was eligible to go to the palace with swords on, and other ministers had to untie their swords and take off their shoes before entering the palace.

Therefore, the powerful ministers of later generations will generally give themselves privileges such as adding swords to the palace, and entering the court.

In the Western Jin Dynasty, a group of idiots from the Sima family learned from others. Not only did they go to the palace with their swords, but they did not tend to enter the court. .

Fusu untied the long sword at his waist, put it on the sword stand on the left, and waved his hand. Han Rang led several servants and walked into the hall with several trays in their hands.

Right Prime Minister Feng Quji asked suspiciously: "I don't know why Your Majesty summoned us to Lanchi Palace today?"

Fusu didn't answer, but just pointed to the trays in the hands of the servants.

Qiang Li stepped forward and lifted the silk cloth on the tray, and found that there were several Qin Banliangs on the bottom, so he said with a smile:

"Isn't this a coin minted by my Great Qin? Could it be that your majesty is looking at the poverty of the old minister's family and wants to reward the old minister with some money to survive the winter?"

"Just a few Qin Banliangs can make the old general survive the long winter?" Fusu said with a smile, "I have a grassland beauty sent by the envoy of the Huns. When the old general leaves, why not take a few?" Go back and warm the bed..."

Fusu's words hadn't finished yet, and everyone burst into laughter, and the son of the Shaofu, Gun, even told several pornographic jokes in succession, some of which were recounted by Fusu, every minute 404!

There is no way, let alone this kind of small court meeting, even if it is a large court meeting many times, these old men who lack entertainment will still tell dirty jokes!

Although this trend is said to have spread to many later dynasties, Fusu has always felt that the tradition of telling dirty jokes in court in Qin State can be traced back to a certain eight sons who did not want to disclose their names...

After everyone laughed a few times, Feng Jie coughed heavily twice. As a doctor of imperial history, it is his duty to maintain the discipline of the court.

Zhi Su Nei Shi Zheng Guo stepped forward, frowned, twisted up a Qin Banliang, looked carefully, and suddenly exclaimed: "It's terrible! It's terrible!"

"Why is Zhisu Neishi so panicked!" Feng Jie also picked up a Qin Banliang, looked up and down but still didn't see anything wrong.

Zheng Guo ignored him, but looked at Fu Su and asked, "I dare to ask Your Majesty, where did the money come from?"

Facing the suspicious gazes of the ministers, Fusu said lightly, "Changyang Street, Nanshi."

Zheng Guo immediately turned around, looked at Nei Shi Wang He, and said tremblingly, "Wang Nei Shi, send troops quickly and search the whole city! This is a traitor who wants to destroy the foundation of our great Qin..."

Wang He looked at Fusu in bewilderment, not knowing what happened to Zheng Guo.

Fu Su waved his hands and said, "The Qin Banliang on the left side of the tray was discovered by Zhen and my close ministers in Nanshi, Changyang Street, and the one on the right side of the tray was taken out from the treasury by my order."

"After my measurement, the money on the left is three baht less than the money on the right!"

"And what surprised me is that the texture and specifications of the several pieces on the left are exactly the same. The error between each piece is extremely low, and it is clearly cast by the same mold in batches!"

These fake coins were actually found by Fusu when he was shopping in Nanshi last month.

As the name suggests, Qin Banliang coins weigh half a tael each. The Qin system made 24 baht as two, and half a tael is twelve baht.

Fake money weighs nine baht, which means that even if the half taels issued by the court are melted and cast into fake money, every three Qin half taels can be turned into four fake money.

If you mine and cast it privately, you will make more profits!
And the reason why fake money can be circulated in the market, this pot must be carried by Emperor Shihuang again!
