Daqin: Impeachment of Qin Shihuang at the Start

Chapter 12 When will you write? (3/4)

“good!”

“I declare that Ye’er will win this bet!”

“The one million taels of gold will be directly charged into the treasury!”

“Ha ha……!”

Seeing the two admit defeat, Yingzheng couldn’t help laughing.

The son of the “ineffective” himself, effortlessly pitted a million taels of gold.

This is not a small sum. If it is bought into grain and grass, it will be enough for the Meng family army in Mobei for a year!

In addition, there is another reason why he is so happy.

That is my own son, not an ignorant trash!

But a talented genius!

He was still worried about this kid’s illiteracy before.

Unexpectedly, he was worrying too much!

It seems that the last obstacle to becoming a prince is gone!

“Father…Father, is it unfair to be so sloppy?”

Seeing that his father didn’t even read the words of the other princes, he announced the result of the game, and Hu Hai was quite dissatisfied.

He boldly said, slightly dissatisfied.

At this time, not only him, but Fusu and other princes were also quite dissatisfied.

Everyone knows that Ying Ziye can’t even write his own name, how can he write a good hand?

“Um!”

“Come on, take Ye’er’s calligraphy and let them open their eyes!”

Seeing Hu Hai, winning the government seemed to be out of anger. He was still laughing just now, and his face suddenly turned black again.

He gave an order and ordered the paper to be delivered to the princes.

“This… is this written by Lao Jiu?”

Seeing the words on the paper, the princes were immediately stunned.

When did Lao Jiu write such a beautiful handwriting?

Do not!

When should I say that I can write?

You know, last year this kid couldn’t even write his own name!

“Ye’er, come here!”

“Tell me, what is that thin piece?”

When all the princes were puzzled, Emperor Shi called Win Midnight to the front and asked curiously.

At the same time, the court immediately became quiet.

The ministers of civil and military affairs also wanted to know what it was, so they all looked towards Win Midnight and waited for his answer.

“This is called rice paper, which is a kind of paper that replaces bamboo slips.”

“This kind of paper can be written or customized into a book, so it’s much easier to carry around!”

While Ying Ziye said, he took out another one from the system space and placed it on the dragon case.

“Can replace bamboo slips?”

“Very good!”

Ying Zheng picked up the piece of rice paper and held it up in the air, looking at it carefully, and wondering at the same time.

The characters that can be written on this small piece of paper are equivalent to several bamboo slips.

If you could copy all the books in the palace onto these papers, wouldn’t it be enough to copy a few of the bamboo slips full of houses?

This is a good thing!

“It turned out to be rice paper. After I go back, I have to send someone to find out where it can be sold?”

“This is much lighter than bamboo slips, and I want to buy it too!”

“The old man has never heard of this stuff. Xianyang City should not be able to buy such things.”

“This paper is from the hands of the Nine Young Masters. After the next day, we ask him if it is clear?”

“Yep……!”

Hearing what Ying Ziye said, the courtiers inquired about where they could be sold.

This thing is more convenient for writing than bamboo slips!

In the future, you will not need to bring a big bundle of bamboo slips, just a few sheets of paper.

“Where can this rice paper be sold?”

“Buy some for the emperor father.”

At this time, Ying Zheng was holding the rice paper, and interested in inquiring about where it was sold.

“This kind of paper was developed by Erchen, and it is not sold outside!”

“If the emperor father wants to use it, he will make some more and send it to the emperor after a while!”

Winning Ziye gave a few words casually, and at the same time, he secretly figured out in his heart how to use this invention to make a fortune.

In this way, it can not only solve the problem of the emptiness of the treasury for the court, but also benefit the people.

You must know that bamboo slips books are very expensive nowadays, and only the children of aristocratic gentry families can read books.

The underachievers do not have the conditions and opportunities to study at all!

However, the cost of paper manufacturing is extremely low, and the price can be lowered. At that time, ordinary people will be able to buy books.

“Good, good, good…!”

Hearing that it was something developed by his own son, Yingzheng was very pleased, and happily shouted hello three times in a row!

He did not expect that his own son is not only wise and brave, good calligraphy and writing, but also invented!

This change in writing is enough to be recorded in the annals of history!

“My son has finished answering the question, please review it!”

Just when he was overjoyed, the eldest son Fusu walked over with the bamboo slips.

This second question was tested, although his handwriting was not as good as his nine brothers.

But he believed that the answer he wrote should be the best of all princes.

He looked at the answer sheet of Win Midnight, and only said that he had his own solution, and even boasted that the solution of money and food was just a trivial matter, and he didn’t give any answer.

Such bragging words have no meaning and will only arouse the disgust of the father and the emperor.

Therefore, he was anxious to submit the answer sheet.

He believed that after seeing his father, he would be able to reach a verdict!

“My son has finished answering the question, please look over!”

Behind Fusu, Hu Hai and other princes also presented their own answers.

When they were appreciating calligraphy just now, they also looked at the answer sheet of Win Midnight.

Although the words are not as good as people, they believe that they are far better than the old ones in terms of answers!

“Um!”

“Put it all here!”

Seeing that the princes had submitted their answer sheets, Yingzheng had to put away the piece of rice paper and flipped through the answer sheets one by one.

“Increase revenue and reduce expenditure…!”

“Yeah! This is a good idea!”

After reading Fusu’s answer, he nodded with satisfaction.

However, this method has been studied by the Minister of Korea and China for a long time, and the effect is limited!

In Daqin nowadays, everything that can reduce expenditure has been reduced, and taxes that can increase revenue have increased.

But it is still difficult to solve the problem of insufficient money and food!

Next, he looked at the answers of Hu Hai and other princes, mostly in clichés or empty slogans.

No practical suggestions at all!

“Ye’er, you said that resolving money and food is a trivial matter, do you have a good plan?”

Finally, he picked up the rice paper that won the midnight answer, and asked in doubt.

This answer sheet is full of exaggerated words, and there is no substantive answer.

If it had been before, he would have thought this kid was bragging.

But judging from the various performances of this kid today, it shouldn’t be like bragging!

For a while, there was a faint expectation in his heart! *
