my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 51 Announcement!

Some people say that the demise of the Qin Dynasty was due to the loss of a world map.

The mighty Great Qin Empire rose up with the military merit system, and after sweeping the six countries with its powerful and efficient farming and manufacturing technology, this system that was born for war suddenly became useless.

The people of the old Qin could return to the fields and enjoy the benefits brought by the title without the war. However, the nobles and common people of the other six countries that had just been brought under the rule could no longer use the means of war to gain wealth like the people of the old Qin. His own title and interests were forced to become victims of the military merit system.

Under the military merit system, even princes and grandsons, without military merits, are not allowed to be titled titles, and the reason why there are very few people whose names are recorded in the genealogy!

Even if the first emperor's own son is like this, let alone those original nobles from the six kingdoms?

Without common interests and the inability to form a sense of cultural and psychological identity in a short period of time, this empire cannot form a strong centripetal force.

With no way forward, the nobles of the six countries who were unwilling to lose their noble status could only rise up and resist.When the first emperor was alive, they could do nothing but sneak around, like mice, and engage in some shady tricks. The Qin slogan is actually a war of re-division of interests.

Therefore, after crossing, Zhao Ying kept thinking, looking for an opportunity to give the first emperor, ministers, and those remnants of the six kingdoms who lost their noble status during the process of the first emperor's unification of the world a broader map.

Give them a chance to regain their own interests and fight for their status.

Also give this empire a gap to vent internal grievances and contradictions!
He has been preparing for this day.

After crossing, he has been collecting information about the countries of the Western Regions with great fanfare, borrowing books about the countries of the Western Regions, exercising his body, building up his strength, and personally interviewing some business travelers from the Western Regions.

The purpose is today, so that what I said today has traces to follow!

persuasive!

Have credibility!

Holding the half-burnt black branch, Zhao Ying roughly drew the outline of the geography and introduced the world outside Daqin to everyone.

"Crossing the Hexi Corridor, you will find rich products and gold-filled countries in the Western Regions. Further west, there is a small country called Bactria. To the west of Bactria is Parthia, and to its south is a The huge empire, the Maurya Dynasty..."

Following Zhao Ying's narration, a brand-new, unheard-of vast world appeared in the eyes of the First Emperor and the civil and military ministers, and everyone was shocked.

Especially when they heard the existence of the Peacock Empire, the Seleucid Empire, and the Roman Empire, three comparable to the Great Qin Empire, they were even more shocked.

Especially the first emperor, his eyes almost jumped into flames.

I thought that the world is so big, but it is only to the East China Sea in the east, the South China Sea in the south, the desert grassland occupied by the Huns in the north, and the vast mountains and barren and uncivilized barbarian land in the west. Civilization, there is even more fertile land than Daqin!

Until Zhao Ying drew the entire Eurasian continent and South Africa, seeing that Qin State only occupied a pitiful small piece of land on this huge map, the first emperor couldn't help but be motivated.

"Order the Black Ice Terrace and the counties of Longxi to investigate with all their strength—"

Wang Jian even more carefully held the map drawn by Zhao Ying in his hands. These were all treasures. Compared with the stingy old general Wang Jian, the First Emperor was much calmer and glanced at Zhao Ying.

"Ying'er, after you go back, quickly draw another copy for me—write another detailed memorial and send it to me..."

"promise!"

Zhao Ying bowed to accept the order with a serious face.

Because of this map, everyone no longer has the mood to continue grilling and hunting, and they are silently digesting this shocking news and the possible follow-up effects of this news.

But there is one thing in common, that is, almost none of this group of big men who started their careers with military exploits is willing to give up the pace of continuing to fight.

Only Zhao Ying, although his face was calm, felt inexplicably heavy in his heart.

He suddenly felt a little unsure about his long-planned picture contribution.

Is the bait I threw really right?
Can it alleviate the conflicts that are about to break out in Daqin, or will it drag Daqin into a militaristic war that wastes people and money?Many things, standing on the shore and gesticulating, are completely different from being in the water.

Maybe……

But, I want to live!

Zhao Ying picked up the drinker in front of him, held it up high, and paused——

All in one drink!

Then he let out a long breath.

"I would like to be the gun in the hands of the father, to open up the territory and land for the father, and to make extraordinary achievements!"

It's useless to look forward and backward. Now that you have done it, you should open up and do it. Zhao Ying, who was carrying the wine, suddenly became full of courage and high spirits.

"Excellent, my grandson!"

The first emperor looked at the heroic grandson in front of him, and felt happy in his heart. Although my sons are ineffective, I have a grandson!
"Come, drink this cup to the brim, congratulate my grandson, congratulate Daqin—"

The First Emperor raised his wine glass high.

Suddenly, there are deafening echoes from all around you.

"Congratulations to Your Highness, congratulations to Great Qin—"

Ah, this-

Foolish people, fooling me so much that even I am a little bit hot-blooded, what should I do?
……

Shaofu, Dongyuan.

The difficulty of the Lishui Spinning Wheel is the huge water wheel. With Chun and other young craftsmen who have experience in building water wheels joining in, those skilled old craftsmen suddenly became enlightened.

Once the difficulty was overcome, under the huge and efficient operation of Shaofu, a brand new hydraulic spinning wheel was successfully erected on the water.

After hearing the news, Shi Lu came over and saw the beating guy who was driving more than 50 spindles at the same time, spinning at a speed far exceeding that of manpower, and almost pulled out his beard with excitement.

Become!

It really works!
Mr. Ying's creativity is simply unimaginable and ingenious!

"Okay, well done, I want to personally ask His Majesty for your credit!"

Having said that, Shilu turned around excitedly.

"Come on, prepare the horse, I'm going to announce the good news to His Majesty—"

……

Shanglin Court.

The people who were about to leave suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance, they couldn't help being startled, they all stopped what they were doing, and looked over in surprise.

Could it be that there was another rebellion somewhere?
It wasn't until he came close and found Shi Lu on horseback that he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't a rebellion, but the doubts in his heart deepened.

What is it that makes this one of the Nine Ministers, Shi Shaofu known for his prudence and calmness, act like this?
PS: The vigil will continue tomorrow. Chapter 2, I'll see if I can find time to squeeze it out, I guess it will be too late for an update.
