Rebirth of Shuangshu

Chapter 201 End
In the 17th year of Qin Wangzheng, Qin sent Nei Shi Teng to attack Han, captured Han Wang'an, established Yingchuan County in Han, and Korea perished.

This year, Ying Zheng turned 30 years old.

According to the previous agreement, Lin Xiaoxiao personally formulated a health regimen for Ying Zheng.From diet to exercise, and daily schedule, Lin Xiaoxiao planned everything for him.

In addition, Lin Xiaoxiao also regularly presented the so-called hand-made elixir-Liuwei Dihuang Wan.Every year when the seasons change, Lin Xiaoxiao will also present Angong Niuhuang Pills for Ying Zheng to take.

Under the impetus of Lin Xiaoxiao, the imperial court established a medical academy to specialize in the study of medical skills, and set up a medical school to teach medicine.Lin Xiaoxiao incorporated Taoist alchemists and warlocks into the Academy of Medicine, and established a separate department of alchemy.

Although it is unreliable to make alchemy to become an immortal, the art of alchemy is not useless.It is said that gunpowder is derived from alchemy.

In order to grasp the development direction of Danke, Lin Xiaoxiao stumbled out of physics and chemistry, and taught chemistry to Danke's alchemists in person.

Also under the impetus of Lin Xiaoxiao, the imperial court also established the Academy of Engineering, which specializes in the study of craftsmanship, and also opened an engineering school to teach craftsmanship.For example, all kinds of agricultural equipment invented by the Ministry of Agricultural Science and Technology will be sent to the Academy of Engineering Sciences for record after the experimental stage, and will be promoted for use.

In addition, Lin Xiaoxiao also fought against the public opinion and contributed to the establishment of the Academy of Business.

Business schools are different from medical and engineering schools.Its intelligence is to study the country's business policies, formulate the country's future business development direction, and submit it to the king of Qin and his ministers for discussion.It's more of a think tank.

At the beginning, Ying Zheng didn't understand why he wanted to set up a business academy, because he had always been influenced by Lin Xiaoxiao's thoughts and believed that excessive business development was a policy that would harm the country.

“Precisely because excessive development of commerce will destroy the foundation of the country, it is more necessary to formulate positive policies to regulate and restrain the development of commerce”

Lin Xiaoxiao's idea is that since South Korea has now belonged to Qin State, all aspects of South Korea should be included in Qin State's development plan.

Historically, Qin Shihuang did not begin to unify weights and measures until after he unified the world.

Lin Xiaoxiao feels that there is no need to wait until then, as it can be implemented in South Korea now.

"Books have the same text, travels have the same wheel, land has the same region, quantity has the same balance, coins have the same shape, etc."

Lin Xiaoxiao has two ideas: First, she can't just mint Yuan coins, that is, the imperial court can't just issue Qin Banliang.Furthermore, the imperial court cannot exchange Qin coins for South Korean coins on a one-to-one basis.

Won money is copper money.It is very inconvenient for large transactions to only use copper coins as the currency of circulation.

For example, Lu Buwei went to Shicheng to sell sweet potatoes and corn before, and got back [-] gold.The so-called gold is not gold, but copper.Although there was gold in this era, people did not use it as a transaction currency.In order to transport the [-] jin of copper back, Lin Xiaoxiao deliberately sent it to the warehouse and then back to Xianyang, which cost her [-] points.

In history, Qin Shihuang once plundered copper mines for coinage.

Lin Xiaoxiao's suggestion is to issue different currencies.The conversion ratio between currencies is stipulated by the imperial court.What kind of currency to issue and the specific exchange rate can be handed over to the Academy of Commerce to study and propose a plan.

Lin Xiaoxiao also talked about some cases of countries manipulating prices and thus affecting business, which made Yingzheng realize that there are many aspects to consider in governing a big country, and a more professional team is needed to do professional things.

As for the second item, Lin Xiaoxiao is laying the foundation for the emergence of paper money in the future.

Lin Xiaoxiao wants Ying Zheng to understand that the value of currency is reflected in the value of the goods that can be exchanged, not the copper content in the coin.This is also the purpose of her launch of "White Strip Corvette" before.

"South Korea uses cloth coins. In terms of copper content, the value of one cloth coin is higher than Qin Banliang. However, in Qin State, three won coins can buy a catty of millet; in South Korea, it takes six coins Only cloth coins can buy a catty of millet. In terms of purchase, one won coin is equal to two cloth coins."

Lin Xiaoxiao uses millet as the benchmark because the staple food of Koreans is also millet.

"In the end, Qin coins should be used instead of South Korean coins. It can't be a simple one-to-one ratio, but many aspects must be considered, such as stabilizing prices, such as restricting businessmen from speculating, etc. It is best to leave it to the Academy of Commerce to study and come up with a plan.

Governing a big country is like cooking small fish.Many things cannot be done recklessly, and many details in reality must be considered.Let South Korea and Qin unify the weights and measures, etc., just as an experiment, to see what problems will be encountered, so that we can avoid or think of countermeasures in advance when it is implemented in other countries. "

Yingzheng adopted Lin Xiaoxiao's suggestion, and re-appointed Lu Buwei as the dean of the Academy of Commerce.

It is said that in the court hall that day, Lu Buwei wept bitterly and called King Qin wise, which moved countless people.No one in the world mentions the name of Lu Buwei's Zhongfu, but Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei are often praised as "bole and good horses".

In the 19th year of Qin Wangzheng, the Qin army defeated the Zhao army, and Wang Jian and Qiang Yan conquered the Zhao land and captured the Zhao king.The State of Qin established Handan County in the vicinity of Handan, the capital of Zhao.

With the experience of governing South Korea, Qin State's implementation of correct policies in Zhao State was smoother and more stable.

In the 22nd year of Qin Wangzheng, Qin Wangzheng sent general Wang Ben to attack Wei, surrounded Daliang, the capital of Wei, and flooded the city with water from the Yellow River. After three months, Daliang City was destroyed, King Wei surrendered, and Wei State perished.

In the 24th year of Qin Wangzheng, the Qin army invaded Shouchun, the capital of Chu, and the king of Chu was captured.

In the 25th year of Qin Wangzheng, Wang Jian pacified the south of Chu, subdued the king of Yue, established Kuaiji County, and Chu State perished.In the same year, Wang Ben led an army to attack Liaodong, captured Yan Wangxi, and Yan State perished.

In the 26th year of Qin Wangzheng, Wang Ben went south from Yan to attack Qi, captured Qi Wangjian, destroyed Qi, and established Qi County and Langye County in the old land of Qi.

So far, Qin has completed the great cause of unifying the world.

In the first year of Qin Shihuang, Yu Jingzi, a daughter of Kunlun Mountains, personally crowned Qin Wang Yingzheng as the emperor, and called Shihuang the Son of Heaven.

In order to congratulate the new emperor, Yu Jingzi, a woman from Kunlun Mountains, presented high-yielding crops of sweet potato and corn, and said that she would travel around the world to teach villagers how to grow these two crops.

On the day of the coronation, the first emperor announced that the world would be exempted from taxes and corvees for three years.

At the same time, a series of decrees for recuperation were issued.

For example, disarming and returning to the fields: military officers and soldiers are encouraged to retire and return to farming, and are allocated fields and houses or receive a sum of compensation according to the size of their military merits.

Another example is the return of all people to their hometowns: people who fled to Shanze due to wars can receive their original fields and houses after returning to their hometowns.And cancel the country system.

The First Emperor said: "All the people in the world are my people."

These positive policies are all to comfort the people who have gone through hundreds of years of war, so Shi Huang is deeply loved by the people at the bottom.

There is another group that needs to be appeased, and that is the aristocratic family.

The first emperor has decided not to divide the feudal titles, and the system of prefectures and counties will be implemented throughout the country.

Before the unification of the six countries, Qin had gradually implemented various unification policies, which laid the foundation for the implementation of the prefecture and county system.

The leaders of counties and counties use a combination of election and imperial examination.

For the time being, the interests of the gentry cannot be touched, so the court allows the gentry from all over the country to recommend talents.Not limited to the old Qin gentry, other old land gentry can also participate.

Then these people will be gathered in Xianyang City to study systematically for three years, and assessments will be held twice a year, and the best ones will be selected and sent to various counties and counties as officials.

This positive policy broke the monopoly of the great gentry on the official system and distributed relevant benefits to more gentry.This is Hong Guoguo's conspiracy, using many small nobles to contain a few big nobles.

All kinds of positive policies were implemented one by one.

In the second year of the First Emperor, Lin Xiaoxiao witnessed a man named Zhao Gao being crushed to death by a car in the square of Xianyang City, and then took six children from four to nine years old to the Ministry of Agriculture and Science.

These six children are all children of Ying Zheng.Four sons and two daughters.

After all, Yingzheng refused to establish a queen, so his children did not have a son.

The six children were born equal, because Ying Zheng didn't favor anyone, and didn't even give them names, but let people call them according to their ranking.The euphemistic name is to learn from the people and make a living.The name was not given until the daughter Jiji was 15 years old and the son Jiguan was [-] years old.

Regarding this matter, Lin Xiaoxiao didn't have much to say.It can only be said that no one is perfect.As for the impact of this practice on future generations, whether it is good or bad, it is currently unclear.

Because of investigating people's sentiments everywhere these years, Lin Xiaoxiao spent less time in the Ministry of Agricultural Science and Technology.So she was greeted warmly upon her return.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Cui Panpan haven't seen each other for several months, and they must have a good night's chat when they meet again.

Lin Xiaoxiao talked about what she had seen and heard during the time she was away.Cui Panpan said something about the Ministry of Agricultural Science and Technology.

Cui Panpan looked at Lin Xiaoxiao's face and asked hesitantly, "Did you notice something?"

"what's up?"

Cui Panpan sighed.

"Now that I'm almost fifty, it's hard to imagine that I've lived in this world for more than 20 years, and your face doesn't seem to change."

"I know." Lin Xiaoxiao touched her cheek, "My body seems to have stopped at the moment of crossing. I haven't even had any illness in these years. It may be a side effect of the system."

"If one day I die and you are still alive, will you be lonely?"

".I don't know. If God really doesn't want me to die, then I will always guard this world and make it a better world."

"Then where are you going with Beard?"

"With my status, it is impossible to get married, and he doesn't care. That's it, it's good for two people to live for one goal. What about you, have been in the Ministry of Agriculture and Science for these years, and you will never see Han Wu again? "

"It's unnecessary, I almost forgot about this person. Pingping will visit him every year, so that's fine."

"Then you haven't seen anyone else?"

"I have experienced it before, and I am satisfied. The later ones are not as good as they were back then, so why insist. And I have no ambitions here, and will dedicate the rest of my life to the cause of the Ministry of Agriculture, Science and Technology."

"Don't think about things that are so long in the future. People should live well and live in the present."

"Oh, yes, I don't know how long I can live."

"If there are no accidents, there is no problem for you to live to be over 80 years old. In this way, you have only passed half of your life. Let us work together to build a better Qin Dynasty."
