Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 152 The Love and Hate between Li Si and the First Emperor

Zhang Liang traveled all over the world, and was fortunate to be taught by a strange person. He is no longer the reckless man who was full of blood and courage in the past.

In today's Qin Dynasty, its worry lies in the anger and grievance of the people.

People who hate Qin in the world don't know how many people, millions of officials and slaves, heavy taxes and corvee, are the mountains that weigh on the head of Guizhou.

This anger was enough to destroy the world. On the contrary, among the nobles, each had their own dirty minds and cursed loudly, but each of them chose to compromise.

Nobles have never been forced to the brink of life and death. Instead, they are the head of Guizhou, living in dire straits.

It's just that the voice of Qianshou is very small, and no one speaks for them.

If you follow this trend, you only need to wait for a suitable opportunity, an opportunity for most of the nobles to unite the front, and raise your arms, and the world will be shaken!

At that time, there was only a slight chance of restoring the country.

But now, Qin Guo seems to have suddenly changed his temper.

New food was distributed, but there was no intention of raising taxes and corvees.

The price of salt dropped even lower than that of private salt, and the rope tied around Qianshou's neck suddenly loosened a little for no reason, which made Zhang Liang feel terrified, something Zhang Liang could not have predicted.

"Why is Qin's official salt sold so low?"

It's not that Zhang Liang doesn't know the process of making salt and producing salt. The cost is really there. According to common sense, the official salt of the Qin State doesn't even care about the cost...

"Qin, isn't the price based on the tax?"

Zhang Liang observed everything with the old way of thinking, but he never thought that this is the innovation brought about by technology and the increase in productivity, which directly destroys all of them. One point made Zhang Liang inexplicably uneasy.

……

On the other side, Pei County...

Fan Kuai knocked on Liu Bang's door.

"Brother! Brother! Open the door, brother!"

Inside the room, Liu Bang was in the sprint stage, and Mrs. Mei under him was looking coquettish.

"Brother! Open the door! Brother! What are you locking up in broad daylight! If you don't open the door again, I'll just climb over the wall!" Fan Kui's loud voice remained the same.

Liu Bang's legs trembled, and he spat at the displeased beautiful woman.

"Damn it!"

Liu Bang hastily wrapped his clothes and went straight to the door, angrily pushed open the latch, and kicked Fan Kuai's ass to meet him.

"Brother! Let me see, is the little widow from the tavern in the house?" Fan Kui deftly dodged Liu Bang's attack and poked his head over with a charming smile on his face.

"Boom!" A wooden clog hit Fan Kuai's face straight, and a beautiful woman came out of the room with her hips crossed and cursed.

"Look, I'll let you see, Nai Niang is standing here for the eggless thing, why don't you look at it?"

"Okay, okay, my brother is like this, he doesn't have a heart, why should you bother with him, go in quickly..."

Seeing that the beautiful woman was angry, Liu Bang hurriedly pushed her back into the house. After comforting her for a long time, he came out to look at Fan Kui with a gloomy face.

"If you don't tell me why, I'll have to skin you!" Liu Bang pointed at Fan Kui!

When good things are ruined, Liu Bang is also angry.

Seeing this, Fan Kui scratched his head and laughed, "Brother, it's really a good thing!"

After finishing speaking, he took out a package from his arms and spread it out layer by layer.

"Fairy food! Xiao He asked me to deliver it!"

In the package, there were two corn sticks, three or four sweet potatoes, and seven or eight potatoes.

When Liu Bang heard the words, he took it in a hurry, and looked at it intently for a long time.

"Why...there are so few, this fairy food is too, and it's too shabby." Liu Bang looked at the mamalailai sweet potatoes, and then at the yellow corn cobs, with a bit of a smile on his face. question.

"Just this thing, how many thousand catties can it really produce per mu?"

"That's all. The grain seeds distributed in Peixian County are only a few hundred catties in total. The big households have taken all of them. Ordinary people can't even look at them. Brother, these are still Xiao He's, and Xiao He specially asked me to send them. Otherwise, we won't have any immortal seeds in our hands." Fan Kui spread his hands.

"He's a big dog, he doesn't pay his food, his mother's corvee doesn't get his turn, and his mother's smell of shit is getting worse!" Liu Bang spat and poohed on the ground.

"With these few sticks, when will I have to plant the seeds before they fall."

"The yield of this fairy grain is extraordinary, Xiao He said, at most three or two years, the seeds produced will be enough for planting, brother can give me some seeds." Fan Kui rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

"I will miss you guys. When it's time to harvest, let's share the seeds together... Damn, how should I plant this thing?" Liu Bang carefully collected the three kinds of immortal food and asked cursingly. road.

"Xiao He said that he will make a copy later, and all the farming strategies have been borrowed by the big family." Fan Kui replied.

"Damn it! It's even good for them to take the lead. Naigong has to pay food and serve in the army, so they sit at home and make money. Once Naigong gains power, he has to arrest them all and serve in corvée. Divide up the fields!"

"Every dog-like thing!"

"Who says it's not?" Fan Kui agreed with it.

Although scolding Qin is politically correct, Da Qin has indeed done two good things recently.

One is that the price of salt has dropped, and the other is that it has been divided into local areas.

It's not good to scold Zhao Zheng, who cannibalize people and take advantage of others. On the contrary, the benefits are all taken by the big family. Liu Bang naturally tilted his anger on the group of big dogs.

He also counted on the immortal food seeds to be self-reliant.

At present, the Liu family has a total of more than 100 mu of land, which cannot support the three brothers to start a family and start a business.

With fairy grain, wheat and corn are planted in rotation, and with the high yield of sweet potatoes and potatoes, the three brothers can barely make ends meet. Liu Bang can rely on these three new grains to start a family and start a business.

The beautiful woman in the room was angry again, and she just made a fuss with him today, asking Liu Bang if he was unwilling to marry him because of his status as a widow.

"Zhao Zheng, son of a bitch, my good King Qin, don't let his mother's food grow, and then add corvee taxes!"

After getting the benefits, Liu Bang kicked Fan Kuai away, collected three kinds of new food, and hurriedly went to coax the beautiful woman.

……

On the other side, Xianyang, inside the palace of Daqin.

"Right now, new food has been distributed locally, sailing has also gone out to sea, and the price of salt has doubled, so it can be said to be good for the people?" Li Si asked.

It is worth mentioning that recently, because Li Si is in the critical stage of enlightenment and is trying to revise a brand new path, he often summons Zhao Si.

So much so that Zhao Si could be said to be running at both ends, but Zhao Si had good physical strength and didn't find it troublesome, so Emperor Shi Huang couldn't accept it at first.

Li Si didn't matter. It took half a day or even a whole day to talk with Zhao Si. The first emperor's personal secretary almost became Li Si's personal secretary.

However, Li Si used the name Zhao Si used to justify his words.

The order to move the nobles is Li Si's job. After all, this is a decapitation. Zhao Si, as the person who raised the opinion, cannot be avoided. Li Si must fully communicate with Zhao Si, not to mention that Li Si is still in the stage of enlightenment. critical stage.

Li Si told the first emperor more than once that he was exploring a new way to get rid of the nobles and make Daqin go deep into the local new way, which is also a state matter.

But the first emperor needed Zhao Si as his personal secretary, so he could only use a compromise method in the end.

Ask Li Si to temporarily move his office to the palace and work with the first emperor.

Zhao Si continued to serve as the personal secretary of the First Emperor, but also responsible for communicating with Li Si.

In this way, Li Si also took it for granted that he had a meal in the palace, the weight loss meal used by the first emperor.

Just kidding, the first emperor must not accept him eating grass and Li Si eating delicacies there.

Although the food was replaced by a diet meal that was hard to swallow, Li Si was still very happy.

He sure is happy!
A long time ago, he followed the first emperor.

After he left the teacher, he entered Qin alone, and a letter of remonstrance and expelling guests was discovered by the first emperor, and he became the confidant and training object of the first emperor.

At that time Li Si was high-spirited and full of vigor, while the first emperor at that time had first assumed power and was ambitious.

At that time, Li Si and the first emperor were also true monarchs and ministers. Li Si even accompanied him for a long time, and was often called to play duets in the palace. He was young, held a high position, and was trusted by the emperor. Time can be described as the limelight.

The first emperor even entrusted Li Si with important tasks, letting the young Li Si preside over the reform of the law and participate in the discussion on the use of troops.

For a long time, they were as close as Shang Jun and Qin Xiaogong.

Later...

Han Fei's "Five Beetles" and "Xianxue" were handed down to the first emperor, and Li Si personally presented them.

The first emperor first got "Five Beetles" and "Xianxue" and couldn't put it down.

At the same time, he developed a love for Han Fei and asked Li Si to call Han Fei into Qin.

When Han Fei entered Qin Dynasty, Emperor Shi Huang personally greeted him to show his respect.

At this time, Li Si didn't have too many disturbances in his heart, he was happy for his little junior brother.

Later...he discovered that the person who entered the palace every day was Han Fei, and the first emperor's love for Han Fei was visible to the naked eye...

At that moment, he was really flustered.

The last straw that crushed him was that Han Fei did better than him in every national policy. Emperor Shi Huang praised him less and less, and praised Han Fei more and more.

Han Fei, who had just entered the Qin Dynasty, became an upstart in the court visible to the naked eye.

such a pity……

Han Fei is the son of South Korea.

Han Fei is another extremely stubborn person. He has a lot of affection for South Korea.

This is precisely Han Fei's fatal flaw, and it is also the bottom line that Han Fei cannot back down.

Even if it angered the First Emperor.

The first emperor was indeed a man of talent, but he couldn't tolerate Han Fei's offense to him, so Han Fei was thrown into prison by the first emperor.

Han Fei had a strong temperament and would not give in at all. The first emperor was also a stubborn donkey, just when the first emperor was hesitating between killing or not.

Li Si... made a move...

He watched the little junior brother drink that glass of poisonous wine with his own eyes...

He knows how strong Han Fei's character is...

So, Han Fei died...

As a result, there was a huge gap between him and the first emperor.

Li Si made a decision for the First Emperor privately.

Perhaps Han Fei's death was inevitable. Han Fei had expressed his attitude countless times. If South Korea was destroyed, Han Fei would die. He wanted to use his death to prevent Qin from destroying South Korea.

Li Si believed that Han Fei could really show his will through death.

However, he made the decision for the first emperor in private.

So, the intimate pair of monarchs and ministers can no longer truly work together.

Since then, he has become the first emperor's tool man...

Li Si didn't even know how long it had been since the last time he ate in the same case as the First Emperor.

In the past...he often worked with the first emperor, and he even chatted with the first emperor all day and night without closing his eyes...

At that time, Emperor Shihuang took him on a safari, and he drove the chariot for him himself.

Everything stems from a wrong move.

Although Li Si got everything he wanted, he also lost something crucial.

But now... He seems to be sitting here again, with the First Emperor in front of him, their positions seem to be exactly the same as ten years ago, and this scene seems familiar.

It's just that opposite to him, there is a little guy named Zhao Si.
