Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 8 Tighten your belt, let's donate some more!

The empire under the control of the Qin law has a unique ability to mobilize at the grassroots level.

There are county roads under the county, townships in the middle of the county, and pavilions in the township, and pavilions and lis.

The emperor's power went deep into almost every household.

Therefore, when the edicts of "the first emperor personally conquered the Xiongnu", "rescue the people of Zhaodi from danger", and "protect the people of China" were issued from the Qin Palace, the land of Kyushu spread rapidly with Xianyang as the center!
After all, it is the consensus of China. No matter how the survivors of the six countries resisted the Qin court, they had to give a thumbs up to the emperor's edict: This melon is kind!
Countless knights, swordsmen, and veterans, after learning the content of the edict, prepared their own food, grass and weapons, and under the leadership of the village elders, pavilion chiefs, and Li Jia, they rushed from all over Kyushu to Zhao to kill the offenders.

This is due to the high-yield grains promoted by Qin Mo. Even if they are not stimulated by military merits, self-sustaining warriors dare to waste the mountains of grain at home to compete with the Huns who is more powerful!

At the same time, the two old generals Wang Jian and Wang Ben, also under the instruction of the first emperor, began to collect and recruit mares, and recruited cavalry and archers from the old Qin people.

According to the Qin Law, adult men registered as pawns and served for one month each year are actually corvee service. They have to do everything, but they also receive military training.

After the soldiers were trained, the outstanding ones were selected and turned into regular soldiers. The main force of the Qin army to destroy the six countries was these regular soldiers, and they served for one month every year when there was no war.

The brave fighters who are suffering from strokes will be selected as garrison soldiers, which are probably sharp soldiers. They will serve at least one year at a time, and then they will not need to serve for ten years.

Wang Jian and Wang Ben recruited those who are good at riding and arching from among these veteran soldiers, which can be called the best of the best!

According to Qin Mo's request, the Supervisor of the Great Qin Shaofu is also doing his best to manufacture saddles, stirrups, thunderbolts, vests...

The poor wealth in the national treasury has been consumed visibly by the naked eye!
Fortunately, there were countless people who donated money, goods, food and grass to cheer for Erlang Zhuang's expedition, which made Yingzheng feel better.

In addition, the common people have generously donated money, and the officials and lords of the Great Qin Dynasty should naturally set an example.

……

"Everyone, I have already conveyed your majesty's meaning."

"Let's discuss how much to donate, and each of you can send it to Prime Minister Qin, and he will arrange it!"

Zhao Gao put it down with a smile, and drifted away, leaving a group of big Qin Wenwu with wry smiles on their faces.

"I just donated to Qin Xiang a few days ago, and now I want to donate again. The wives and children in Ben Tingwei's family are afraid that they will have to drink the northwest wind."

Li Si couldn't help whining.

He is the highest court official in Daqin, and he must lead by example. He does not dare to amass wealth on weekdays, and his family lives on the annual salary.

However, the last time he helped Qin Mo to help the poor, he bled the most, and the family could no longer make ends meet.

If the donation continues, his whole family will really have to drink northwest wind to survive!
"This time, His Majesty's personal conquest requires goods, food and grass. As ministers, we must not be too stingy."

"It's better to tighten your belt and donate some more."

Meng Yi gave some comfort, then got up and said: "I'm going home to prepare the goods first, you can do whatever you want."

Seeing him like this, all the ministers had to go home one after another to prepare.

Li Si was helpless, and returned home dejectedly, rummaging through boxes and cabinets like a house raid, and scraped together another ten thousand and a half taels.

Let the servants pull it in a bullock cart, and personally lead the way to the hut next to Zhen Guohou's mansion!
"It's fragrant and refreshing, it's really a fairy tea."

"This utensil looks like jade but not jade, it is really gorgeous."

Li Si walked halfway, but was blocked by a group of people, and there were exclamations from the crowd from time to time.

The servants stepped forward to drive them away, but no one gave way.

Li Si faintly smelled the wonderful fragrance of Jiamu, and became curious in his heart, so he stopped the servant who was about to go mad, and squeezed into the crowd to check.

The first thing that catches the eye is a beautiful woman, very provocative.

However, Li Si's gaze was attracted by something else.

There is a table in front of the beautiful woman, and a set of utensils is placed on it. It is as bright as jade, but it looks like jade but not jade. It is embedded with gold lacquer and painted, which is very gorgeous.

"Beautiful utensils too!"

Li Si smacked his lips in praise.

At this time, the beautiful woman is playing with the small red clay stove beside her. Pine cones are burning in the stove, and a beautiful girder pot is burning on the stove. The water in the pot is already boiling.

The beautiful woman put a plain linen cloth on her shoulders, picked up the girder pot, and washed the utensils in front of her.

People are beautiful, and they look good-looking in everything they do. In addition, they have no distractions, and their demeanor gives people a sense of calmness and calmness.

Even Li Si was fascinated by it!
It wasn't until the strange fragrance of Jiamu appeared again that Li Si suddenly came back to his senses, and hurriedly looked at the brewing things in the utensil.

Tea leaves, withered and yellow tea leaves!

"This is roasted tea, can a gentleman taste it?"

The beautiful woman had good eyesight, and when she saw Li Si's luxurious clothes, she picked up a glass and invited him to taste it.

Li Si was also polite, and took it carefully. He first enjoyed the local tyrant style porcelain cup, then smelled the tea, and finally sipped it.

"Well!"

Li Si snorted and frowned.

But after a while, he stretched his brows again, closed his eyes and recalled the taste: "It's really fairy tea!"

The beautiful woman smiled, and the jade portable pot refilled another cup for him, and then shared the rest of the tea with the onlookers.

"Beautiful lady, you set up a tea stall here, you must not be showing off for fun, right?"

"Tell me a price, and I'll buy it for you to take home!"

A big spoiler in the crowd yelled.

Li Si's tasteful taste of tea was interrupted, and he couldn't help glaring at the man.

But the beautiful woman was not offended, she just joked with a sweet smile: "The concubine is the singer of the Zhen Guohou's mansion, the gentleman really wants to buy it?"

The man froze for a moment, and grinned embarrassingly: "It's just a joke, a joke, ha ha."

As for the rest of the onlookers, although they were not as embarrassed as he was, they immediately became solemn, and even their eyes that were looking around were restrained, as if Liu Xiahui's eyes were not squinting.

"Concubines don't sell their bodies, but this fairy tea and porcelain are for sale, gentlemen, are you willing to buy them?"

The beautiful woman asked with a smile.

The crowd was silent, and soon the pot exploded.

"Of course I will!"

"What is the price?"

"As much as there is, I want it all."

The crowd was turbulent, and no one wanted to miss such a treasured fairy tea.

Li Si quietly tucked the porcelain cup in his hand into his sleeve, and retreated out of the crowd while taking advantage of the chaos.

Then, he stopped sending donations to Qin Mo, and just stood outside the crowd to watch the fun.

About half a quarter of an hour later, the treasured fairy tea was snapped up by the rich customers in Xianyang, and there was already a mountain of half taels in front of the beautiful woman, and a lot of gold cakes were sandwiched among them.

The beautiful woman waved to the side of the road, and two swordsmen came out from nowhere, helped the beautiful woman lift the gold cake and coins, and walked into the Zhen Guohou's mansion in the distance.

"Qin Mo, Qin Mo, thanks to His Majesty's praise for your honesty and self-defense, it turns out that all your wealth is hidden in the Marquis' Mansion."

Li Si sneered: "See how you argue this time?!"
