Daqin: Who does this throne give to me?

Chapter 121 Your Highness Has Scavenged Chu Land
"I will succeed to the throne in a few days. I will definitely not let my father leave the palace and live in another place. It is imperative to build a new palace. Before I left Qindu, I heard that the Afang Palace is going to be built. How is the progress now!"

Zhao Wen's expression was extremely relaxed, he picked up the tea and took a sip, but the cold sweat fell instantly on the faces of the three people standing at the bottom!
"Your Highness forgive me!"

The new emperor had no place to live, so it was naturally the responsibility of the prime minister and the young mansion, but the three of them dared not speak up when the first emperor was asked to leave the palace.

"I asked you what the progress of Efang Palace is now!" Zhao Wen's tone suddenly turned cold.

"Efang Palace only has one name now, because of constant revisions, the master craftsman in the Shaofu has not even made a legend!"

Back at the Twenty Prince’s Mansion, the Heshibi brought back from the world of The Legend of Double Dragons in the Tang Dynasty exudes inexplicable fluctuations again. Under the blessing of this fluctuations, Zhao Wen seems to be like a god in the eyes of the three people, with only a slight trace of The anger caused the three of them to feel the shocking pressure on their hearts at the same time.

"Your Highness, forgive me!" Under the strong pressure, the legs of the three of them softened and they fell to their knees at the same time.

"Among the top craftsmen I brought back this time, there are construction craftsmen. Let them work with the craftsmen of the Shaofu to make the legend as quickly as possible. The prime minister and the Shaofu order should also choose the location of the new palace as soon as possible. , Recruit people to start leveling and clearing the land!"

"Your Highness, all the labor services for this year have been conscripted!"

The Wang Guan looked distressed, not because he wanted to reject Zhao Wen, but because there were too many major projects in Daqin, such as straight roads, the Great Wall, Lishan underground palace, and the adjustment of roads and cities in various places. The division of labor is over.

"The people in the Zhidao and Lishan Underground Palaces don't move. The Great Wall can be stopped. Besides, I don't plan to recruit laborers. You will send people to the warehouse of the Prince's Mansion later. I still have some gold and silver. This time, the palace will be built using hired labor. , ten copper coins per person per day!"

It is the top priority of a country to connect the world directly. As for the underground palace, Emperor Shihuang is not feeling well now. Even if he knows that he will recover soon, if he dares to stop the underground palace, Zhao Wen is sure, After a while, Emperor Shihuang would kill him to make trouble for himself.

As for the Great Wall, although it is majestic, it is a defensive building. In Zhao Wen's view, the Great Qin Dynasty does not need any defense at all, and there is no need to waste labor at all.

One copper coin can buy two pancakes, and ten copper coins are by no means cheap nowadays.

"It's the same with Zhidao and the underground palace. All the conscripted labor will be stopped, and the money will be returned. From now on, all the projects in Daqin will use hired labor!"

A large amount of gold, silver and jewelry is about to fill up the space, especially silver, because he released a large amount of gold, and now the value of silver is getting higher and higher, but the most accumulated in his hands is silver.

But if these gold and silver are not used, they are completely worthless.

Regardless of Wangguan, Shaofu Ling and Qin Duling, when they left the Twentieth Prince's Mansion, they all had a gloomy expression on their faces. From their point of view, Zhao Wen made random arrangements.

All the labor is employed in the form of employment. Does a prince who grows up in the deep palace know how much labor the world needs in a year?

"Go, ask someone to bring some carriages over, we'll wait here, and see how much gold and silver the Chu nobles have sent His Highness!"

The Royal Pavilion has decided that if the number is sufficient, some money can be paid for this year's labor, but if it is too little, even if he goes to the palace to see His Majesty, he will never dare to agree to the request of the next twenty princes.

Daqin has been at war for many years, and after the reunification, there have been one big project after another, and it can't make ends meet. If he agrees, the prime minister can't afford so much labor wages if he sells him.

Carload after cartloads of gold and silver were pulled out from the residence of the twenty princes, and the three of them looked dull!

"There are a hundred cars!" This is Qin Duling's exclamation. Although he has a high official position, his work is at the grassroots level. With so much gold and silver support now, at least the places that need to be sorted out this year can be very large. It's done with ease.

Qin Duling had secretly decided in his heart that after returning home, he would sort out all the things that needed to be done and report them. Naturally, it was not easy to enlist labor, but for ten copper coins a day, some people rushed to do it.

"Could it be that Your Highness brought back the entire Chu land!" Wang Guan couldn't believe his eyes, the gold and silver brought back from Chu land that day was far less than that from the twenty prince's mansion.

"This is Your Highness's money, and it should be under the control of my Young Mansion. If the imperial court has any money, it can be allocated by the Young Mansion after reporting to His Highness!"

"Are you daydreaming?" There was disdain in the eyes of the Prime Minister Wang Guan: "Your Highness said very clearly that this is the money for the construction of the new palace and labor labor in various places. What does it have to do with your young mansion!"

The Shaofu Ling was already secretly regretting that he hadn't snatched the dispatch of the carriage just now, but there were also a large number of carriages in the Shaofu.

However, he still said anxiously: "Even if it's the labor of the world and the new palace, it can't use so much gold and silver!"

He saw very clearly that this time His Highness's mansion pulled out more silver than gold, and the value of silver was more than ten times that of gold. The sum of so much wealth was probably far inferior to the treasury of the Seven Kingdoms back then.

Seeing that so much wealth was taken away from him, but the Shaofu didn't get any of it, how could he be reconciled.

The most painful thing is that he still has the opportunity to store all these wealth in the Shaofu.

Qin Duling chuckled from the side and said: "It will definitely be used up, there are many projects in Qindu that required labor labor, and I will report to the prime minister in a while!

"The imperial court still has a lot of accumulated projects. It's just a straight road. After being hired, it can be started together everywhere in the world. Do you know how much it will cost?"

Wang Guan glanced coldly at the Shaofu Ling, and followed the carriage to leave. He wanted to see the gold and silver stored in the treasury with his own eyes. With so much gold and silver scattered, he, the prime minister, would surely be famous forever.

The carriage continued to move forward, and in just a short while, many well-informed people already knew that His Royal Highness had sent a large amount of gold and silver to the treasury. Suddenly, the eyes of many nobles lit up.

And the first emperor in the palace nodded in satisfaction when he heard that Zhao Wen sent all the gold and silver brought back from Jiujiang County to the treasury!

It is also an advantage for an emperor not to be greedy for money, but being able to take care of his own blessings to the people at the bottom will at least make the people's hearts return to Daqin. The emperor, at least he can guarantee that there will be no troubles in Daqin for a hundred years!
