Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 287 Trade Plan
After Fusu left, Zhao Qingrui called Wang Xian over.

"You go to Shanglinyuan, take some things from my private warehouse, and give them to those farmers. They have worked hard to improve the crops. By the way, take a look at Hu Hai, and let Tong Wuhou and the steward of the breeding area pay more attention to him. , let people send more pigs, cattle and sheep over there, the war on the border will consume a lot of meat." Zhao Qingrui ordered carefully.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I'll go right away." Wang Xian said respectfully.

Since Gan Luo lived with Zhao Wen, he cheered up and soaked in the ocean of knowledge every day.

Zhao Qingrui came to visit Gan Luo. If she hadn't come over, Gan Luo wouldn't have seen any guests.

"Is Mr. Gan uncomfortable here?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Gan Luo gently.

"The old man is very good. If he hadn't come to Xianyang under the persuasion of His Highness, the old man was still wasting time in Shu County. Now I know that the outside world is so big, and there are so many things that the old man doesn't know." Gan Luo sighed Said.

"It's good for Mr. Gan to get used to it, but even if you want to learn new knowledge, you have to combine work and rest. My elder brother has come to me to complain, saying that Mr. Gan reads late every day." Zhao Qingrui smiled.

"Master Fusu, the old man is in good health now, and there is no problem. The old man also wants to learn a lot while he can still study." Gan Luo said seriously.

He didn't care about Fusu's complaint, it seemed that Mr. Fusu had indeed persuaded him several times, and he was so engrossed in reading that he forgot about it.

In the past few days after returning to Xianyang, there were many people who came to visit, except for Li Sifeng Quji and the others who he met for a while, he didn't see anyone else.

Zhao Wen really knows too many things, and he has a lot of books here. Now he just wants to swim in the ocean of knowledge, and doesn't ask about other things.

"Those knowledge won't run away, and I'm not young anymore, I have to take care of my body and combine work and rest." Zhao Qingrui persuaded earnestly, although Gan Luo has been given medicine, but the effect is slow That kind, Gan Luo looks healthy now, but he is also getting old after all.

"I just want to learn more." Being stared at by Zhao Qingrui, Gan Luo blushed. He had no children in his life, Zhao Qingrui was in the same grade as his students, and Zhao Qingrui had to persuade him. Embarrass him a little.

"Take your time, don't worry, you should also pay attention to your body, otherwise I will tell Zhao Wen not to show you the book." Zhao Qingrui chuckled lightly.

"That won't work." Gan Luo said hastily.

"Then you have to be obedient."

"Oh, I got it, I got it, you guys are more verbose than the other." In the end, Gan Luo was defeated.

"Your Highness came here today just to teach the old man?" Gan Luo looked at Zhao Qingrui suspiciously.

Zhao Qingrui is now the crown prince, and she is busy with some things, so it is impossible for her to be so free.

"Haha, come to visit Mr. Gan Luo, even if you don't have time, you have to spare some time." Zhao Qingrui laughed.

"Your Highness is joking." Gan Luo still looked at Zhao Qingrui indifferently.

"Well, there is something wrong. Now that the father is conquering the Xiongnu in the north, he has withdrawn a large number of troops to go to Shangjun. The Xiongnu, Donghu and other tribes have also united to fight against the Great Qin."

"People from the Peacock Dynasty came to Daqin again, wanting to trade, wanting to exchange some more food seeds back." Zhao Qingrui talked about the brochure sent by Zhang Han.

"It depends on what you want, Your Highness." Gan Luo said calmly. In the past few days after he came back, in addition to reading and studying, he also learned about the affairs of the Great Qin Dynasty.

His Majesty's personal conquest, the Huns and other tribes are just the starting point, and there are even more vast lands overseas, which even he can't help yearning for.

If he was ten years younger, he would have wanted to go out and have a look.

"Food seeds cannot be traded, of course, but they have a lot of gems over there. I am very interested. I want to exchange some back. What do you think, sir?" Zhao Qingrui smiled.

"It's an honor for those barbarians to have something that His Highness is interested in." Gan Luo raised his eyebrows.

"Was sir also so smooth before?" Zhao Qingrui chuckled lightly.

"The envoy will arrive in Xianyang in half a month. According to Zhang Han, I'm afraid the person who came is not kind." Zhao Qingrui said helplessly. Today's Great Qin has many good things.

And this emissary of the Peacock Dynasty specially chose to come here when the Great Qin was fighting, with the intention of getting a foot in the war between the Great Qin and the Huns' coalition forces.

The envoy who came this time is said to be a diplomatic official of the Maurya Dynasty.

"The visitors are not kind, is your Highness afraid of them?" Gan Luo also laughed.

"I'm afraid, how is it possible? If it weren't for the fact that the Peacock Dynasty is too far away from my Great Qin, my Great Qin's shipbuilding technology is not enough to manufacture a large number of warships. I will definitely report to my father and kill them in advance." Zhao Qingrui is domineering. road.

"That's it, it's just a small messenger. They want to intervene, so let them intervene anyway, just to show the strength of my Daqin to the outside world, and deter Xiaoxiao." Gan Luo held the teacup, and he also went to Shanglinyuan After reading it, I know the strength of Daqin's current army.

With such strength, it is only a matter of time before the whole world is unified. Gan Luo is not worried about anything.

"The Maurya Dynasty has elephant soldiers. They tame elephants to fight. They are powerful." Zhao Qingrui is quite interested in those war elephants.

"What is an elephant soldier?" Gan Luo had never heard of this.

Zhao Qingrui explained to him carefully, including the pros and cons of elephant soldiers.

"With such a sharp weapon, it's a good thing that Daqin is far away from them. If they are adjacent to Daqin, or if Daqin used to be, our Daqin is in danger." Gan Luo said with emotion.

"Yes, but now, my Great Qin has no fear of the small countries around it." Zhao Qingrui smiled.

However, now is not the time to attack the Mauryans. Even if the Great Qin defeated the Huns, it would still take some time to govern and civilize them, and they would have to occupy Jizi Korea and Dongying.

After these are settled down, attack the Maurya Dynasty and those countries nearby.

Daqin still needs a lot of places to build and a lot of captives.

Since they are not planning to fight the Maurya Dynasty for the time being, what to do with their envoys is another problem.

"For that, since I, Daqin, have no fear of anyone, Your Highness can be stronger." Gan Luo suggested seriously.

"If the things they want to exchange are ordinary, it's okay to give them some. If it involves the foundation of our Great Qin, don't bother."

"Mr. Gan's idea suits me very well." Zhao Qingrui laughed happily.

On the point of food, she will never give in. If she gave them sweet potatoes, it would be completely benevolent to the enemy.

Before leaving, Zhao Qingrui also told Zhao Wen to look at Gan Luo more, not to let him read too late.

Back at Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Qingrui took out the memorabilia sent back by Zhang Han again.

The Peacock Dynasty is far away from Daqin, and their hands cannot reach that far. Of course, if they insist on doing that, Daqin's elites are not vegetarians.

The messenger just expressed his desire for grain and seeds, which must not be given, even if they have any good things.

When the time comes, who will receive these envoys will have to be carefully considered.

"Go, invite the two prime ministers."

"You two are here, sit down."

Zhao Qingrui hurriedly explained the reason for asking them to come, and asked them what they meant.

"These envoys have ulterior motives. In my opinion, it's better to kill them directly." Li Sihan said.

The current Daqin is very powerful, a distant country, even if they are comparable to Daqin, but they are too far away, even if there is a war, he will not believe the loss in the war, they will directly send troops to the border of Daqin.

"What Li Xiang said is also the minister's thoughts. Seeing what His Highness means, since he has no intention of making friends, and even wants to shoot them down in the future, there is no need to do those efforts to save face." Feng Quji said lightly.

The corners of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched. What you said is simple, they have a lot of gems over there, and she wants to make Daqin more prosperous through trade.

"Ahem, two prime ministers, now Daqin is at war with the Xiongnu, in terms of military pay and food, the money and food can account for almost half of Daqin's treasury, and Xianyang will be rebuilt soon, and a lot of money and materials will be needed, and the treasury is not rich. .” Zhao Qingrui said hastily.

"Your Highness wants to trade?" Feng Quji understood what Zhao Qingrui meant.

"That's right, before there's a war, get some good things back from them to make Daqin's economy more prosperous." Zhao Qingrui nodded.

"Your Highness asked us to come here to discuss trade matters. It's just that many of my Daqin's things cannot be exported." Li Si also understood the intention. The current Daqin is indeed not rich.

Because of the reconstruction of Xianyang, if the national treasury was not able to support the consumption of various parts of Daqin, he and Feng Quji would have to speak out against it.

After all, Xianyang is the capital of Daqin, and Zhao Qingrui also wanted to make Daqin better, so the two supported Zhao Qingrui to transform Xianyang under pressure.

"That's why the two of you are required to draw up a charter." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

"It's not difficult. I'll show it to His Highness when I'm done." Feng Quji responded seriously, and this matter was also their duty.

"Then I'll trouble you both. By the way, there are candidates to receive the envoys. Do you have any recommendations?" Zhao Qingrui asked quickly.

"Since we want to trade, we still need to let him feel the importance of my Great Qin. How about letting Mr. Jiang Lu go?" Li Si suggested, Jiang Lu is the order of Pinghuai and the son of the first emperor, and his status is considered high.

"Brother Jiang Lu? Although he has improved a bit now, he is not smooth enough. Send him two more people to help him." After thinking about it, Zhao Qingrui felt that this was an opportunity for Jiang Lu to practice.

"Lu Zhi next to His Highness is good, how about adding Wei Xi?" Feng Quji recommended two people to Zhao Qingrui, both of whom were Zhao Qingrui's own.

"They are really suitable." Needless to say, Lu Zhi, she has been doing things with her for nearly a year, Zhao Qingrui is very satisfied with her, and Wei Xi, who was taught by Gan Luo, his own ability Not bad, but useful.

"Just as Feng Xiang said."

After the matter was settled, Zhao Qingrui relaxed a lot.

What she needs to pay attention to now in the DPRK and China is the war on the border and the infrastructure construction of Daqin.

Today's Daqin is stable internally, and there are no problems in infrastructure construction. Even because of the changes in the system, many people have spontaneously signed up to participate in the official corvee.

However, the national treasury is starting to be tight again under various constructions and wars. These people from the Maurya Dynasty have provided her with a good idea.

Just when Zhao Qingrui was almost done, Feng Jie came back and captured the remnants of the Yan Kingdom.

"Feng Yushi has worked hard." Seeing the dusty Feng Jie, Zhao Qingrui said hastily.

"A minister eats the king's salary, and he should take care of the king's worries. This is what a minister should do." Feng Jie said seriously.

"All the remnants of the Yan Kingdom have been imprisoned in Tingwei's prison, will His Highness summon Ji Xin?" Feng Jie bowed.

"Bring it here, I also want to see where he got so much courage." Zhao Qingrui nodded.

Soon, a man in his twenties was escorted into the Qilin Hall by the guards. In the hall, Zhao Qingrui sat at the head, with civil and military officials standing on both sides, and the whole hall was solemn and solemn.

Is this kid the person behind the scenes?He looks about the same age as himself, but he looks very embarrassed at the moment.

Seeing Zhao Qingrui sitting at the top, Ji Xin opened his mouth and said nothing.

There are many officials around, as well as guards watching him.

Among the surrounding civil and military officials, there are even many women.

Daqin doesn't know what's going on?Ying Zheng guessed that his brain was trapped by the door, and he actually let a woman be the king.

Looking around, Ji Xin knelt down, lowered his head and did not speak.

Seeing Da Qin getting stronger and stronger, his heart felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching.

He is the heir of Yan Wangxi, and the life of hiding all these years has made him extremely aggrieved. He is the only remaining heir of Yan Wangxi, and the nobles of Yan Kingdom secretly supported him, which made him more idea.

How beautiful the Prince Dan was at the beginning was an existence that he couldn't even look up to. If he could also become a monarch, he also longed for that kind of life.

In addition, the remaining nobles of the Yan Kingdom did have some influence, and secretly gathered a group of people. These people were elite soldiers and good generals, which gave him some hope of restoring the country.

Whether it's him or the other remnants of the six kingdoms, they are all waiting for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow when Da Qin is weak.

When Zhao Qingrui left Xianyang, he didn't bring many people with him, so he traveled lightly. After they got the news, they became excited.

Zhao Qingrui was the crown prince established by the first emperor to worship the heavens and ancestors. After she came to power, the weakened Daqin suddenly came back to life. The prestige of Daqin also reached a new height, and the difficulty of their restoration of the country increased countless times.

Zhao Qingrui quietly left Xianyang, allowing them to see the opportunity, and then planned a murder, trying to get rid of Zhao Qingrui, the biggest stumbling block on their way to restore the country.

It's a pity that they failed, and they were even found. Before they had time to run away, the sharp fighters from Daqin arrived.

"Ji Xin, the son of King Xi of Yan, hid in Hanzhong County after the fall of the Kingdom of Yan. He was secretly the king of Yan who was co-raised by the nobles of the Kingdom of Yan. He gathered private troops with the intention of opposing Qin."
