Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Lingnan County, Wu County.

When Ying Zheng's motorcade arrived, the victim Wen Buqun was no longer human.

His face was covered with bruises and bloodshot eyes, and most of his old yellow teeth were gone. His gorgeous clothes had turned into strips of burlap. If he lifted them slightly, he could see his body covered in black bruises. It is completely incomparable to the majestic appearance when he first appeared.

If it weren't for the fact that his chest was still rising slightly and his pulse hadn't stopped, indicating that he was still alive, Ying Zheng might have thought that this guy was hopeless.

In fact, if Cui Yuan hadn't still had sense and stopped midway, Wen Buqun would have been buried.

After all, with Cui Yuan's current strength, just one punch is enough to kill someone.

As for the Wen family's servants, they had long been taken away by the guards.

I heard that when they were being escorted away, they still cried and shouted for the guards to take them away quickly, not wanting to stay here any longer.

"Cui Yuan, why are you so angry and arguing with him?"

"Although the Mo family members were injured, their lives were not in danger, but you almost beat Wen Buqun to death."

"It's not a big deal that Wen Buqun died, but many people around him probably saw this scene. By then, I'm afraid there will be rumors that King Qin has a cruel personality and kills people violently."

"You don't care about any of this?"

Ying Zheng frowned, completely unable to understand why Cui Yuan was so angry.

If he wanted revenge, with his current status, he could use other means to make Wen Buqun's life worse than death, so why did he do it himself?

Bang!

"There's no reason, I just don't like him!"

Cui Yuan was still angry and kicked Wen Buqun in the waist again. The pain caused the latter to almost wake up from a coma.

Look... you don't like him?

Ying Zheng was completely speechless.

But thinking about it carefully, this does seem like the reason Cui Yuan would give.

Do whatever you want and go with the flow.

"Greetings to Your Majesty! Your Majesty will live forever!"

"Greetings to Your Majesty! Your Majesty will live forever!"

Mo Fei, the tycoon of the Mohist family, was always around and did not dare to leave. After all, Cui Yuan was helping them get ahead.

After seeing Ying Zheng arriving, he immediately brought Mo Xue and many Mohist disciples to visit him.

"Get up."

Ying Zheng nodded: "Juzi, it's been such a long time!"

"These past few days, I have allowed you to come from Liucunbao to this remote rural area and take charge of this glaze workshop. You were also in charge of the concrete workshop in Liucunbao before. It's really hard on you."

Although the auction and marketing methods were Cui Yuan's idea, even the refining method of colored glaze was also developed by Cui Yuan.

But without the strong execution ability of Murphy and the hard work of the Mohist craftsmen, this plan would not have been implemented smoothly.

Not to mention that Murphy also presided over the opening of the concrete workshop in the Six Village Fort.

Although the Yellow River dam has not yet been constructed, it is still in the design stage.

But when the Yellow River burst its banks, it was built and blocked with concrete.

Ying Zheng didn't think it was anything before, but now he increasingly realizes that for Da Qin, there is a real shortage of skilled craftsmen.

Mo Fei frowned and humbly said, "Your Majesty is the one who works harder!"

"I am just in charge of a small glaze workshop, which is not trivial at all, but your Majesty is in charge of all the people of the world, working day and night."

"It is my greatest honor to be remembered by His Majesty despite his busy schedule."

Other Mo family members also followed Mo Fei's lead in saluting and thanking him profusely.

When Ying Zheng saw this scene, he immediately felt like a mirror.

This Murphy seems to be being modest, but actually he wants to take the opportunity to take credit.

However, it is understandable that when he asked Mo Xue to work as a maid beside Cui Yuan, he also had the idea of ​​​​getting closer to him first.

But after Cui Yuan and Ying Yinman got married, and Cui Yun had no other interest in Mo Xue, this idea obviously fell through.

Therefore, it is understandable that Mo Fei wants the title, not only for himself, but also for the Mo family.

"Since the beginning of Shang Yang's reform, the Qin Dynasty has used military merit as the standard to award meritorious officials. Although there are exceptions, they have also used farming as the standard to award titles."

“Those who kill more enemies and cultivate more crops can be granted a title.”

Hearing this, Murphy couldn't help but show a little disappointment on his face, but Ying Zheng didn't stop talking.

"But times are changing after all. Although Lord Shang is extraordinary, his reforms have been going on for many years and he has gradually fallen behind the times."

"Besides, the imperial examinations that started a few years ago did not confer titles directly, but they also conferred official status, which was the first of its kind in the Qin Dynasty for military merit."

"And now you and the Mo family have contributed a lot to Da Qin and helped Da Qin overcome several difficulties."

"Mo Fei, today I will grant you the title of You Geng and grant you the title of Chongquan County."

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Mo Fei was stunned. After a few seconds, he trembled and knelt down, crying loudly!

"Thank you! Thank you Your Majesty for the gift!"

"Woo~"

The other children of the Mo family also had tears in their eyes, feeling as excited as Mo Fei!

Right update, this is the 14th level of military merit among the nobles!

If you are in a large army, you are at least a commander, with a large number of troops and a high status!

Although, it is unlikely that His Majesty will let Mo Feizhen lead the troops.

But the status and treatment are impossible to change, not to mention that the entire county of Chongquan County is regarded as a fiefdom, which is beyond common sense!

More importantly, the title of Murphy can be passed on to future generations!

For Mo Fei, and even for the Mohists, this is a gift specially assigned to them by the First Emperor!

"Oh?"

"I didn't expect His Majesty to be so generous and not to be left behind!"

Cui Yuan had calmed down a bit. Hearing that Brother Zheng was rewarding the Mo family, he followed suit and rewarded the Mo family with ten thousand acres of fertile land on the spot.

Of course, it was not cut off from Liucunbao, but rewarded from Qin State.

Strangely enough, Cui Yuan never ruled Qin. He only passed by a few times while inspecting the trend of the Yellow River, and now his first order is to reward the Mohist family with land.

"Thank you, His Highness King Qin!"

Mo Fei and others were grateful again, recalling Cui Yuan's promise that their Mo family would always exist and be passed down in the ring.

Now, it has become a reality! With the rewards from the First Emperor and Cui Yuan, even if the current Qin Dynasty deposes hundreds of schools of thought and only respects Confucianism, the status of the Mohist family will not be shaken!

And this was Cui Yuan’s original ideal.

He wants to integrate all the strengths of hundreds of schools of thought into Confucianism!

Since we have achieved spiritual unification, we must also retain the distinctive personalities of the various schools of thought!

"Are you normal now?"

When Ying Zheng saw this, he immediately looked at Cui Yuan with ill intentions and was about to say something sarcastic when Cui Yuan quickly surrendered: "Your Majesty, please spare me."

"This is what I did wrong. I was indeed too reckless."

"However, I have also made some preparations. I have secretly asked the magistrate of Wu County to investigate the Wen family. I believe that a lot of evidence has been collected now, which can be regarded as my explanation for taking action this time."

If someone else had asked the Wu County Magistrate to investigate the Wen family, the former would have completely ignored it.

However, he did not dare to hesitate at all about Cui Yuan's words and immediately started taking action. In order to prevent his subordinates from rebelling, he even asked everyone who investigated to issue a military order.

If you can't finish it, you have to shave your head to see yourself.

Cui Yuan counted the time and estimated that the preliminary investigation results would be available now, which would be enough for him to get on the bus first and then pay for the ticket.

As if to confirm Cui Yuan's thoughts, as soon as he finished speaking, the magistrate of Wu County, Zhou Fa, rushed over with a group of officers!

Zhou Fa is a very calm person. He was once an official of Zhao Tuo and helped him manage Wu County. He has excellent political skills, but he is also the kind of guy who can't keep up with the trap.

However, because of this, out of disgust, Zhao Tuo did not tell him about the agreement he had reached with the envoys of the great powers, so that Zhou Fa could stay out of the matter.

"Little official Zhou Fa, pay homage to His Majesty the First Emperor! His Majesty the King of Qin!"

Zhou Fa saluted the two of them.

Others may not know the identities of Ying Zheng and Cui Yuan, but it is impossible for Zhou Fa not to know, because his current status and official position were obtained because of these two people.

Although his temper was a bit dull, he also understood that if it weren't for them deposing Zhao Tuo, Zhou Fa would never be where he is now.

"Without courtesy, why don't you tell me the results of the investigation?"

Ying Zheng waved his hand for Zhou Fa to receive the gift, while casting a curious look.

As the top aristocratic family in Lingnan, the Dragon Mother Wen family had a very good relationship with both the Yue people and the officials of the Qin Dynasty by virtue of their ability to maneuver and fabricate legends.

In the past, he ignored it, but now that Cui Yuan was attacking him, he also wanted to know what crimes Wen had committed over the years.

When Zhou Fa saw the First Emperor's order, he did not dare to hide anything. He quickly asked his subordinates to submit the report and told the results of the investigation at the same time.

It was considered normal at first, but it was nothing more than bullying men and women, occupying land, and absorbing people's wealth and anointing, which were common deeds in aristocratic families.

Ying Zheng's ears were a little twitchy when he heard it, and he wanted to feel drowsy.

He didn't mean to be angry, because Mr. Wen would soon pay the price for what he had done over the years.

"In addition to these, some weird things have happened to the Wen family in the past year." Zhou Fa looked hesitant when he said this.

"Oh? What is it?" Ying Zheng became interested and felt that this might be the key. Everyone in the Mo family also listened attentively.

"That's because the Wen family suddenly has a special treasure called Western Spices, which can be used to burn to refresh yourself and make sachets."

Zhou Fa explained and took out a scented sachet from his waist: "This is the specific thing. I also have one here. It was given to me by the Wen family when I first took office."

"According to Mr. Wen, these spices are only owned by his family in Daqin and are not available anywhere else. They are a valuable treasure."

"Although the quantity I obtained is small, it is worth more than a thousand taels. It is very precious!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's expression remained as usual, but his interest immediately dropped, as did everyone in the Mo family.

Although I have never heard of spices, from Zhou Fa's description, this should be a "new" bribery method.

In the name of sending high-priced spices, he came to give benefits to Zhou Fa and other officials of the Qin Dynasty.

As for the price, you can completely fabricate it yourself. After all, only Wen's has spices.

All you need to do is open a dental shop and specialize in purchasing spices, and you can help the officials who accepted bribes to cash out seamlessly.

Not to mention Ying Zheng, even the Mo family had seen a lot of this method. After all, the Mo family had cooperated with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and knew very well how they corrupted the officials of Qin.

This was the case in later generations, and many high-end tobacco and alcohol shops became prosperous.

However, it was completely different from their reactions. Cui Yuan originally didn't care much about what Zhou Fa said at first, and just wanted to find a reason to call himself Wen Buqun.

After hearing the word spice, his whole temperament suddenly changed, and Lai Na's eyes became sharper!

"That's it! That's it!"

Cui Yuan murmured to himself, with obvious excitement in his eyes, and it was getting stronger and stronger!

Because, he suddenly figured out a key!

"Cui Yuan, what's wrong with you?"

Ying Zheng looked shocked and didn't understand why Cui Yuan had changed like this.

This is simply like a poor thief who sees a treasure, or a scavenger who suddenly sees a water source after a day and night of coke, and the whole person is in an extremely excited state.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember what was in the bribes Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao accepted from the envoys of the great powers when we seized them?"

this……

Ying Zheng really couldn't remember it for a while. After all, his memory had not been strengthened by national luck like Cui Yuan. There were many deviations in such a long memory.

Having confiscated so much wealth, how many things could he remember?

There seems to be gold, silver, jewelry, spices...

Ying Zheng was thinking, and suddenly he froze, as if he had been struck by lightning, and his thoughts suddenly became clear!

spices!

spices! !

"There are spices in it too!"

"The Wen family is related to those envoys from great powers!"

Ying Zheng's voice was full of horror!

"That's right!"

Cui Yuan nodded excitedly!

He didn't expect that he would accidentally get news about the Maurya Dynasty here!

"Your Majesty! Without further ado, we will come to the Wen family immediately and ask for details!"

……

In the west of Wu County, there is a street where no people pass by. Everywhere is clean, but there is an inexplicable coldness.

At the end of this street, there is a very luxurious mansion. Not only the towering walls and majestic carvings, its tiles are even inlaid with jade, and the blanket at the entrance is a whole tiger skin!

It’s not that there are no people around, it’s that the people don’t dare to pass by!

This is the Wen family's mansion!

For Wu County, and even for Lingnan, the Wen family is an existence that no one dares to provoke, and it is said that they are the same!

However, today, this situation is about to be broken!

"Come here, surround this place for me!"

The First Emperor's order came directly here like the cold wind of the twelfth lunar month!
