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

Chapter 251 The First Emperor's Last Forgiveness
Pei County is just a microcosm of the world.

The birth of the notice is still very useful. Daqin finally made the first punch in the battle of public opinion, starting from reversing his negative image.

The first emperor ordered the promotion of seedlings at a fair price, which is to stand on the commanding heights of morality.

Of course, it is impossible to implement it in place, but the first emperor's decree has been clearly posted, and no one can distort the original intention of the first emperor.

At most, it is alarmist talk.

The first emperor promoted the planting of three kinds of immortal grains at a low price, just to allow you to collect more taxes after planting immortal grains.

……

On the other side, Emperor Shihuang's drive was still proceeding in an orderly manner.

With the arrival of spring plowing, most people gritted their teeth, after all, they bought fairy grain seeds at a high price to sow.

It is worthwhile to pay for a moment in exchange for a bumper harvest in the future and even no worries about hunger and fullness.

In any case, no one doubts the production of the three kinds of fairy grains anymore. The heads of Guizhou, who were oppressed by heavy taxes and labor, spent all their wealth in exchange for a thousand catties of fairy grain seeds per mu. After all, they raised new expectations for life. .

"Is it worth it to exchange such a few seeds after exhausting the family resources?" Zhao Si asked the old farmer in front of him sincerely.

"It's worth it! Why isn't it worth it!" The old farmer wiped the sweat off his face, looking a little timid.

Although the golden armor general in front of him spoke softly enough, he still looked murderous.

The most important thing is that the soldiers behind the golden-armored general always seem to be ready to move at any time.

The old farmer was afraid that he would be captured somehow, so he took two steps back and his voice became more respectful.

"This fairy grain yields a thousand catties per mu. Even if half of the tax is collected, it will still be five hundred catties!"

"If these ten acres of land are planted with immortal grains, we will have no worries about eating and drinking!" The old farmer looked at the field under his feet, and then at the grain seeds in the bag, his wrinkled face showed some expectation.

In the future, you don’t have to be afraid of not being full!
In this way, you can have more dolls, and you can have more people in your family. From generation to generation, the population will prosper, and the family will become rich sooner or later.

"Then what expectations do you have?" Zhao Si asked kindly.

The old farmer was taken aback by Zhao Si's question, and it took him a long time to react: "Feed a few more dolls."

"And then?" Zhao Si continued to ask.

"The dolls will give birth to more dolls." The old farmer continued to answer.

"Why do you have to have more babies?" Zhao Si asked.

"There are more people and the family is prosperous." The old farmer replied naturally.

"Anything else?"

"Less corvee..."

Zhao Si nodded and turned his back to look at Li Si next to him.

"Li Xiang, this is the simple wish of the people. He didn't even say that the tax should be lower." Zhao Si sighed.

"This grain with a yield of one thousand catties per mu is planted in the ground. He thinks it is a great thing to lose five hundred catties. Greed is human nature, but the small peasant class tends to be stable by nature."

"You don't approve of sexual evil?" Li Si asked.

"I'm not afraid to speculate on a person with the greatest malice, but I'm also not afraid to treat the majority of citizens with the greatest kindness." Zhao Si shook his head.

"Li Xiang, I think that individuals and collectives should be treated differently."

Human nature is evil. Human nature is good. Zhao Si has no intention of arguing with Li Si on this issue. What he wants to express is that the vast collective of common people must be at peace when they can meet their own survival needs.

And for this stability, they are willing to give everything for it.

Li Si went farther and farther on the road of opening up a brand-new legalist concept, and Zhao Si didn't mind using the knowledge from after 2000 to give Li Si some inspiration.

"Interesting view..." Li Si nodded and did not refute Zhao Si.

Zhao Si seemed to be indifferent to the world, but in fact this kid was never lacking in viciousness, and there were some issues that Zhao Si could not dispute.

But it doesn't matter, there is no conflict between his thoughts and Zhao Si's. On the contrary, Zhao Si can always give him some small inspirations.

Zhao Si glanced at the old farmer who was still shivering respectfully, knowing that he had disturbed the other party's spring plowing.

In return, Zhao Si thought for a while and waved his hand.

"Move, don't even watch!"

After Zhao Si's words fell, a group of soldiers ran towards the old farmer like wolves and tigers, thinking that Zhao Si had discovered a new talent, and he would have new fun to talk to his colleagues when he returned.

"Let you help with farming!"

Zhao Si rolled his eyes and cursed, a group of soldiers stopped their movements in disappointment, snatched the old farmer's farming tools under the panic of the old farmer, and help the old farmer to plow all the fields at home.

"The government ordered to promote grain at a low price, but you can't buy cheap grain. This is the government's dereliction of duty. Please accept the money." Zhao Si took out two or three hundred yuan and forced it into the hands of the old farmer.

The old farmer is happy, but afraid...

Seeing the back of General Jin Jia leading his soldiers away, the copper coin in his hand seemed to be still warm, the old farmer raised his hand to pluck up his courage, trying to persuade the other party to stay and drink, but in the end he didn't dare.

Looking back at all the cultivated fields, the old farmer only felt that today's experience was extremely miraculous, and another subtle idea emerged in his heart.

The old Qin people don't seem to be tigers and wolves.

After all, it was the first emperor who ordered the cultivation at a fair price, and the grain was expensive, and it was the group of corrupt officials who secretly colluded, and the group of merchants and aristocrats hoarding goods.

"It would be great if such a good official could come here to govern!" The old farmer sighed.

……

On the other side, Emperor Shihuang was still immersed in government affairs.

This is always the case for self-disciplined people. Before Emperor Shihuang set a rule for himself to review at least one hundred catties of memorials a day.

Now that the memorial has changed from bamboo slips to paper, of course the self-discipline of the first emperor has also been invalidated.

A hundred catties of bamboo slips is okay, but a hundred catties of paper memorials is really fatal.

Looking at one memorial after another, major events in the world, matters in various counties and counties, are all paid on a small piece of paper.

Go through them one by one until you see a familiar name.

Memorials on Hu Hai...

Since Hu Hai made a big mistake and became a disgrace to the royal family, he wanted to take the initiative to make up for his mistakes more than once.

After a few days of panic, Hu Hai took the initiative to ask to see the first emperor, wanting to admit his mistake in person, but the first emperor refused to see him all the time, and even arranged Hu Hai's frame at the end of the convoy, choosing to see nothing.

Hu Hai couldn't see him, so he wrote a memorial and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

Basically playing every day, after so long, there is almost no stop.

Hu Hai was terrified, and he should be terrified too.

After all, he used to be the most beloved child of the first emperor, but now he has lost all favor. His first reaction was of course to ask his father to admit his mistakes and want to redeem everything.

The First Emperor frowned and threw Hu Hai's confession aside and continued to deal with official duties.

There are not many official duties today, and the body of Emperor Shi Huang is different from the past, and it took only half a day to deal with a rough idea.

Subconsciously wanted to see what this kid Zhao Si was doing, but remembered that this kid went out to have fun again.

After sitting for a long time, I feel a little bored when I want to move my body.

Now that Emperor Shihuang's physical condition is getting better and better, and there is still enough time to spare, and it happens to be the season of warm spring and flowers, so Emperor Shihuang inevitably has the idea of ​​hunting.

Once upon a time, the first emperor was also a man who could harness a strong horse, pull a strong bow, and shoot wolves. Later, he suffered from illness and was no longer majestic. Now that his glory has recovered, he always has to move his bones.

"Go call Zhao Si, Hu Hai, and prepare bow and horse guards for me, and drive Jingshan Mountain!" The First Emperor said.

Zhao Gao, who was driving away, was startled when he heard the sound.

Just call Zhao Si Hu Hai and the three of you and your own guards to accompany you?
Zhao Gao was overjoyed when he heard the words. It is a good thing that the first emperor was willing to ease the relationship with Hu Hai. Moreover, Zhao Gao's own status is also in jeopardy now, and the deterrent to the palace people is getting worse and worse. This private trip can also stabilize Zhao Gao's power and influence. prestige.

Except for the addition of a light bulb named Zhao Si, it is really a great thing for the first emperor to go hunting.

There were many things involved, so Zhao Gao hurriedly dispatched troops to look for Zhao Si, and personally prepared the carriage, bow and horse clothes for the first emperor, and informed Meng Yi that he was going to assign generals and soldiers to protect the safety of the first emperor.

Afterwards, he went to tell Hu Hai the good news in person.

"Your Majesty summoned the young master to hunt in Jingshan Mountain!"

Hu Hai was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly went to change clothes, choose weapons and mounts.

In a short while, three thousand soldiers and horses and five hundred accompanying knights had been ordered.

The first emperor refused to ride on the carriage, but changed into a strong outfit and got on the horse himself.

"It's been a long time since I rode a horse!" Shi Huang urged his shiny black horse to take two steps, his figure was stable and relaxed, and a gleam of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

I got used to riding a frame, and after finally riding a horse, I found that my riding skills are not too rusty, which is something to be happy about.

After a few rounds of urging, Shi Huang's body was barely warmed up, his muscles and bones felt numb and his fingers were itchy, and he couldn't wait to try his archery again with his bow and arrow.

The mess of the past seemed to be swept away with the moment when he got on the horse, the only fly in the ointment was that Zhao Si ran a little far, and he still hasn't come back yet.

"You serve me on the left!" The first emperor turned his head and looked around. The soldiers were all ready to go, Zhao Gao led the horse and pedaled, and Hu Hai stood on one side timidly, watching himself hesitating.

Hu Hai was overjoyed when he heard the words, but a little scared, and carefully urged the horse to come to the left side of the first emperor.

Until then, Zhao Si, who was dressed in gold armor, arrived late on a steed.

As for Li Si?

I don't know where he was thrown by Zhao Si's haste all the way.

"See Your Majesty!" Zhao Si got off his horse and saluted.

The First Emperor just waved his hands and said, "Attend me to my right!"

It just so happened that Zhao Si now had a three-stone strong bow hanging on his body, armor on his body, and strong clothes inside, so he didn't need to change clothes anymore, and he could set off immediately.

"only!"

Zhao Si didn't even have time to ask the first emperor what he was going to do.
