Chapter 31 Changes in Great Qin
The First Emperor was getting a little impatient waiting.

He had been having a bad temper recently because he had taken too many pills.

Now seeing that these alchemists have not found an excuse to survive, he is even more irritated.

You know, he asked with an answer.

Li Si beside him couldn't stand it any longer. He sighed inwardly and took a step forward: "Your Majesty, I suggest that the alchemists study gunpowder."

The First Emperor did not reply and continued to look at the alchemists with indifferent eyes.

Someone has proofed it, it’s time for you to tell your value.

The alchemists first looked at Li Si gratefully.

From today on, Li Si is their best friend.

Then the alchemists quickly said: "Your Majesty, we can study gunpowder. The elderly and those with weak hands and feet can also enlighten children and teach them to read and read. We can also treat people in our spare time. We are all good at trauma. treat."

Although it is outrageous, it is true that they have always injured themselves because of the constant explosion of furnaces. They have become chronically ill and have become good doctors with good surgical skills.

"And we can also contribute our own unique prescriptions for treating trauma."

When they said this, a flash of physical pain flashed in their eyes.

Refining alchemy is very expensive.

Their funds often come from two places. The first one is the powerful, such as the big dog. Bah, the wise and powerful emperor Shi Huang.

The most successful person in taking money from powerful people was Xu Fu. That guy deceived a big ship to go to sea.

The second is your own industry.

For example, they will sell some medicinal materials, as well as medicine for treating trauma.

If they hook up with the army and sell some inside, they can make a lot of money.

The First Emperor nodded with satisfaction.

Very good, you can still find your own value, which proves that the brain is not completely broken and can still be used.

The First Emperor then ordered that all alchemists who specialized in alchemy should be collectively dismissed as sinners.

But they are allowed to make meritorious deeds.

If you do well, your sins will be eliminated and you will be awarded a title.

After asking the alchemists to retreat, the First Emperor took Li Si and walked outside.

The two of them wandered around the palace.

Li Si began to report on the recent changes in Da Qin.

"A local supervision team headed by the princes and princesses has been established."

The First Emperor nodded.

This is what he advocates.

The world of Da Qin belongs to their Ying clan, and no one will do their duty more conscientiously than his son.

After all, after the people rebelled, they were the first to be killed.

Li Si continued: "All the new agricultural tools obtained from the sky screen have been put into research and production."

"This time we adopted the method of hiring ordinary people."

"The development is carried out by craftsmen mainly from the Xiangli style and the Mo family, and the hired people are responsible for the assembly."

"After three to five months of accumulation, people's income is just enough to buy new farm tools."

The First Emperor nodded with satisfaction and asked the most critical question: "What do the people in each factory think?"

Hearing this question, Li Si said with an extremely troubled face: "They are ecstatic and grateful."

After all, people used to be employed in the name of corvées, and in many cases they were not paid, not to mention the current high wages.

Li Si deliberately recorded this situation for this purpose.

He felt that suppressing and letting go was more suitable for managing the people, and was more effective than the legalist methods of dumbing down the people and tiring the people out.

"In addition to high-yield crops, there should be other ways to support so many people in future generations. Remember to spread the word and let the common people and dignitaries collectively ask about this next time."

The First Emperor thought of Zhou Yuan's beautiful life and spoke decisively.

Cement and steelmaking technology Zhou Yuan has already released before, and they are adjusting.

"clear."

"One last thing I need to report to you, businessmen from all over want to donate money to build the school."

Li Si himself was very cautious when asking this question.

There is no way, the word merchant will remind the First Emperor of Lu Buwei.

And the First Emperor must have felt uncomfortable as he had just been exposed by Tianmu's rumors.

But Li Si had to mention this matter. Now the Great Qin Dynasty has also started education. After the Confucians saw the corruption of Confucianism in the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, in order to ensure the purity of their own families, a group of bigwigs took out all the treasures in their houses just to start education.

Just a few days ago, Li Si met the descendants of Zeng Zi. They came over with Wu Qi's original military book and said that for education, they must come to their Confucian school. They even teach the art of war.

The First Emperor frowned and said dissatisfied: "Can't our Great Qin even build a school?"

"Do you still need businessmen to pay?"

Li Si said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the Confucian idea is that the court will pay part of the money, and they themselves will pay part of the money to build more schools and engage in competition."

After hesitating, Li Si said cautiously: "Just yesterday, because of the theory of good nature and evil nature, the Kong family had a fight with the Xun family, the kind that drove a chariot."

"For this reason, both parties also agreed to go hunting together in the Qinling Mountains to see who could kill more tigers and leopards to prove their correctness."

“So, we have a little bit more schools to vote for.”

"However, Confucianism also stated that legalists, Mohists, farmers, etc. are allowed to enter the school together, but they must do their ancestral physical exercises."

"Because they believe that the reason why corrupt scholars will appear in future generations is because they are too cowardly."

The last sentence was said by the descendants of Zengzi and Li Si.

Think about it, a descendant of a family that can teach Wu Qi to die as a martyr and be proficient in military, law, agriculture, and Mohism, how open-minded would they be.

The First Emperor did not expect that this Confucian, whom he usually disliked, would be so exaggerated.

then
"Li Si, are you sure that killing tigers and bears is not what a soldier should do."

This is a complaint from the First Emperor.

Li Si was silent for a moment, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty, Confucius was still driving a chariot and drawing a bow and arrow in his fifties."

The First Emperor thought for a while and felt that a strong Confucian scholar would be fine, and finally agreed.

"You can open more schools, and businessmen can invest, but they are absolutely not allowed to have their names in the schools."

"Also, a corruption supervision system must be established."

Li Si nodded in agreement.

But he didn't care about the last sentence.

Each school is guarded by bigwigs from various schools. Who dares to commit corruption?

Let's put it this way, if a Confucian is corrupt, his teacher will rush over and chop him with a two-meter sword.

This is an era when reputation is greater than life.

If you ruin my Confucian reputation, you will be shattered to pieces.

The same is true for other schools of thought.

The First Emperor and Li Si came to the highest point of Xianyang and overlooked the entire Xianyang city.

The First Emperor suddenly laughed.

"Li Si, although Gu has done many wrong things, the appearance of this sky represents the fate of Gu."

Li Si respectfully replied: "Your Majesty is the emperor of the ages, and your destiny is naturally yours."

He respected the First Emperor, who gave him the opportunity to leave his name forever.

"Li Si, go find the so-called overlord of Western Chu, Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty."

"The development of Daqin requires talents."

The First Emperor would not let go of any information in the sky.

"Tell that overlord of Western Chu that Gu Bing will not tolerate others."

For the First Emperor, he wanted both Xiang Yu and Liu Bang.

He wanted to create a true empire.

"Yes."

Li Si respectfully stepped down.

Da Qin is regaining its vitality.

As the people looked at the schools that were gradually emerging and openly recruiting students, and holding the new farm tools bought from specialty stores, they felt that there was hope for the future.

The people of the Six Kingdoms, armed with farm tools issued by the Qin Dynasty, also began to recognize the rule of the Qin Dynasty.

Early Han Dynasty.

Liu Bang led his troops to go to war after the curtain ended.

The rebellion of the opposite sex king has begun.

Xiao He and Lu Pheasant were left by Liu Bang to govern the world.
