I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 175 Ready to Make Money
Ying Zheng was curious about what the Shenji camp Li Yu was talking about looked like.

Now, seeing the sketches of villains on the table, Ying Zheng couldn't hold back his beating curiosity.

Then he asked like a curious baby: "What does the Shenji camp look like in Junhou's mouth? Come on, tell me quickly."

Seeing that Yingzheng was so anxious, Li Yu couldn't hold back, and couldn't help laughing immediately, so he had no choice but to say: "Your Majesty must have seen the power of the firecracker, so I won't say any more."

"In addition to the firecrackers, the formation of the Shenji Battalion requires two hands to prepare."

Seeing Li Yu gesturing with two fingers, Ying Zheng immediately asked, "Which two hands? What do I need to do?"

Li Yu should have been happy that Ying Zheng was concerned about this matter, but Li Yu couldn't be happier when he thought of the cost of setting up the Shenji Battalion.

But thinking about the spring of the coming year, the cavalry of the Xiongnu is very likely to attack the Hetao area from the direction of the Yuezhi Kingdom in one go.

Thinking about this, Li Yu believed that the establishment of the Shenji Camp was imperative and imminent.

Then I saw Li Yu looked at Ying Zheng with a look of "you can't help me" and said slowly: "The establishment of the Shenji Battalion requires the recruitment and training of soldiers, and the soldiers must be able to stretch their arms and legs and have excellent eyesight. just do.

So selecting and training new troops is the top priority.

Secondly, to ration new weapons and equipment, horse ammunition must also be raised and cast as soon as possible. "

Speaking of this, Li Yu deliberately paused for a while, and then continued: "Recruiting [-] soldiers is nothing in itself, but the difficulty lies in the fact that they must be tested for their skills and eyesight before they can be selected into the Shenji Battalion.

The armor worn by the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion needs to be specially made, and the cost of weapons and ammunition is also quite expensive.Therefore, Chen felt a lot of pressure. "

The implication of Li Yu's words is to tell Ying Zheng that special armor needs money, the manufacture of firecrackers needs money, and the recruitment of soldiers needs money.

In short, it is the kind that needs money, and you, Ying Zheng, can't help.

……

Ying Zheng thought nothing of it when he heard the first half.

Isn't it just 3 people, and there is no need to recruit recruits to join the army, just choose from the existing legions.

But when Li Yu talked about it later, Ying Zheng was already one head and two older, and began to show embarrassment.

why?
Because there is no money...

Seeing that he couldn't help, Ying Zheng had no choice but to show that I understand you but can't help you. You looked at Li Yu and said, "Ahem, I can let Junhou go to this matter of recruiting new soldiers." Choose from several major legions.

After all, battlefield experience is more abundant than recruits, and it saves time.

As for the funding... Isn't Liang Yong going to the western suburbs with hundreds of ox carts? "

Hearing what Ying Zheng said, I was a little speechless, and I couldn't help but slander in my heart: Who knows how to pluck wool, the point is to offend people...

These 73 people have a clue, and they have indeed violated the Qin law, so there is nothing to say about the confiscation of their property.

But how many old nobles from the Six Kingdoms are there in Xianyang City?

A full 12 households!
Even a family of four would add up to hundreds of thousands...

If Li Yu keeps doing this, picking up the wool of the old aristocrats for no reason, he might be drowned by each of these people in the end.

Adhering to the principle that you are the head of Daqin and you have the final say on Yingzheng, Li Yu immediately shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, maybe the property of the 73 troublemakers and their supporters today can be confiscated, but it is not A long-term strategy..."

Seeing that Li Yu started to retreat, Ying Zheng immediately patted Li Yu on the shoulder, and then said earnestly: "This matter can only be done by you, if I do it, I'm afraid it will cause public outrage."

Seeing that Li Yu's face was extremely ugly, Ying Zheng immediately said: "How about this, [-]% of the account, if this is done, you can get [-]% of the money if you seize it."

Li Yu was taken aback for a moment, and after a while, he finally understood, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.

"Your Majesty, you must know that the western suburbs of Xianyang used to cost tens of thousands of dollars. If you act like this, it is inevitable that people will bear grudges. Like the assassination yesterday, it may be commonplace."

As soon as these words came out, Ying Zheng couldn't tell that Li Yu was bargaining with him.

Thinking about it carefully, although [-]% of the property is quite a lot, Li Yu seems to have to pay a lot for it...

Ying Zheng's expression moved slightly, as if he had thought of something, he was a little surprised and said, "Doesn't Li Yu have other means to deal with the old nobles?"
Otherwise, how could he bargain with me straightforwardly?
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng smiled imperceptibly, and then said: "The words of the princes are not unreasonable... In this way, it is still my fault."

Speaking of this, Ying Zheng's complexion changed, and he stared at Li Yu with narrowed eyes and said, "But I don't know how much promise I should give, is it suitable?"

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but thump in his heart. He didn't dare to say the words "[-]-[-] open".

After a little thought, Li Yu just said again: "The minister will take [-]%."

As soon as these words came out, Ying Zhengfang's expression eased, and then he smiled and said: "Then I will wait for the good news from the prince."

As soon as the words fell, before Li Yu could react, Ying Zheng's voice sounded again.

"Meng Yi, go back to the palace."

……

Ying Zheng came and went in a hurry, which made Li Yu a little amused.

Why is Ying Zheng like this?
Is this still the first emperor that people worshiped?
Now that there is a verbal agreement with Ying Zheng, Li Yu believes that Ying Zheng will not break his word in the end.

At the thought of 10,000+ rich people being emptied out by himself, Li Yu was so excited that he couldn't restrain himself.

"Deli, how is the tea preparation going?"

"Master Hou, according to your instructions, I have arranged for a large number of people to collect them, and they have all been made into tea cakes."

Li Yu nodded, then asked, "How much have you saved?"

Zhang Deli thought for a while after hearing the words, and then said to me: "There should be tens of thousands of cakes..."

The last two words are very procrastinating, but it's not that Zhang Deli is unreliable.

It's just that there are too many tea cakes made recently, and the three warehouses in the south of the city can hardly hold them.

So much so that when Zhang Deli went home to sleep, his dreams were full of tea leaves, tea cakes, and big iron pots.

With tens of thousands of cakes, you should be able to make a lot of money, but it is far from enough!
Thinking of this, Li Yu immediately asked again: "How much have you prepared for the purple clay pot and wooden tea tray?"

"Back to Lord Hou, I also prepared several warehouses, all of which are high-quality wood and pottery sand."

Hearing that everything was ready, Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

After a while, Li Yu's expression changed, and he slapped his hands on the table, making Zhang Deli tremble with fright.

"Got it! Remember to book those restaurants in the west of the city."
