"It turned out to be a way of thinking, collect some road money!" Wei Bao sneered disdainfully, and at the same time said to Wangqiao and Wangyou beside him: "You will follow me later, try not to show your face, so as not to Lots of branches."

"En aa" Wang Qiao and Wang You both nodded, and they both understood Wei Bao's meaning, picked up the harness hanging from the saddle, and put it on their heads.

Unexpectedly, before Ying Ziyi and his party stepped forward, this group of Qin Jun encountered a difficult problem.

"Who are you? How dare you resist official duties." The centurion looked unhappily at the Confucian scholar who passed the customs without paying the money.

"Oh? What kind of official business am I resisting?" The man was wearing a Confucian skirt, but his hair was disheveled, his face was flushed, and he was holding a pot of wine in his hand. He did not have the etiquette that a Confucian scholar should have.

At this time, the passers-by gathered around and looked lively.

"We are waiting here to block the road and eliminate the bandits. We, the sergeants, are doing our best. As citizens of Great Qin, shouldn't you pay taxes?" said the centurion.

"Hahahaha!" The Confucian scholar laughed and said, "The Qin Dynasty is divided into military and political affairs. The matter of tax collection has always been under the jurisdiction of the officials in the counties and counties. When will it be your turn to collect it? Does the general know?" , According to the Qin law, what punishment should be given for the crime of trespassing and blasphemy? Besides, the Qin law clearly stipulates that anyone passing through the road will not have to pay more taxes. This is the virtuous government issued by His Majesty the First Emperor. The general knows that, What punishment should be given for openly violating the order of His Majesty the First Emperor?"

The Confucian scholar was physically strong. After speaking casually, he picked up the jug in his hand and drank it again.

"You...you..." The centurion was sweating coldly at the Confucian scholar's words.It never occurred to the centurion that a law-aware person would come to this remote village, which caught the centurion by surprise.

"Nonsense...nonsense...you nonsense." The centurion wanted to quibble, when a Qin soldier beside him came up.

Although Qin Bing spoke in the ear of the centurion, Ying Ziyi and his party were all masters, and they heard his words clearly.

"Master Baitu, I know this Confucian scholar, but he is Li Shiqi, a madman from Gaoyang."

"Is he famous?" Baitu asked with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, he is very famous in the local area. Although Li Shiqi is just a lowly official in charge of the Limen, even the local tyrants and county officials dare not use him casually."

"Really so powerful?" Bai Tu looked at the crumbling alcoholic in front of him, but he couldn't tell that this guy was actually such a powerful orange.

Qin Bing nodded, looking serious.

"Let's go!" Baitu ordered impatiently, and withdrew the security guards, allowing the passing business travelers waiting on both sides to pass, and there was a burst of joy at that moment.

The Confucian scholar smiled, and walked over with the jug in hand. When he passed by Ying Ziyi, he glanced at the young man on the horse, took another sip of wine, and headed off into the distance.

Li Shiqi?Ying Ziyi smiled inwardly.

Chapter 67 Hurt each other

A girl's mind is like a storm on the sea, unpredictable.

Ying Ziyi finally understood what this sentence meant?Approaching Waihuang, Xiaoyaozi didn't rush to his destination, but stayed in Yongqiu City nearby, as if he was waiting for something?

Over the past few days, Wangqiao has been very close to Wei Bao, but seems to be a little distant from Ying Ziyi.

Ying Ziyi was a little depressed, it felt as if the pancakes he took a bite of were suddenly snatched away, it was very frustrating.

The inn where Ying Ziyi and his party stayed was very remote.

It was autumn, and Yongqiu City was busy right now.As worthy of its reputation as a granary, the ancient capital of Qi State is glowing with considerable vitality.Even though the inn where Ying Ziyi stayed was located in a remote location, vehicles could be seen passing by on the path in front of the inn from time to time, most of which carried freshly harvested grain.

In order to ensure the food and grass supply of the army and the stability of the region, the empire established a very complete warehouse transportation system.Various big cities near Xingyang.The millet and wheat harvested from the fields must first be transported into the local granary, leaving the necessary savings, and then all transferred to the Ao warehouse to replace the old grain in the Ao warehouse.

Ao Cang is located in Ao Mountain in the northeast of Xingyang, and its strategic location is very important.Except for the dredging of the Ling Canal in the Lingnan area, the empire's shipping system is already very complete.Relying on both water and land transportation, as long as Qin Huang is willing, the grain and grass in Guanzhong can be shipped to all parts of the world.And all the grain and grass from all over the world can be concentrated in the three large warehouses in Guanzhong.

Of course, Qinhuang is not so boring. You must know that this is not a game. In reality, there is a problem of loss in transportation.

In Daqin, there are granaries with an area of ​​[-] shi everywhere, and a granary with an area of ​​[-] shi is not a rare building. Another large warehouse near Yongqiu, Chen Liucang, is this kind of strategic granary.And the Xianyang warehouse in the imperial capital has reached a terrifying existence of one hundred thousand stones.

In terms of material wealth, the accumulation of the empire has reached a terrifying level.In Xianyang City, Qin Tingzhong gathered the elites from all schools of thought. The laws they formulated for the empire have regulations on all aspects of the world, down to the level of how high the seedlings planted by farmers in the fields. .Building roads, repairing the Great Wall, unifying weights and measures, currency, writing, whether it is military, economic or cultural, the empire has reached a very high level.

All of us are united, all for the eternal foundation that Emperor Qin said, a dream that is vague and unrealizable.However, such an empire perished in just fifteen years.The hegemony withered, Qin Wa no longer survived, and Ying Ziyi also sighed endlessly.

"Junior Brother, where are you going?" Ying Ziyi was about to go out when Wang Qiao called out to him.Wangqiao was accompanied by Wei Bao who looked like brown sugar.

At this moment, Wei Bao looked at Ying Ziyi with a rather arrogant look.

"I want to go out for a walk." Ying Ziyi said.

"Well, you have to be careful. There are often Qin soldiers patrolling around here, if you get entangled by them..." Wang Qiao took out a money bag from his sleeve and handed it to Ying Ziyi. "You just send them away."

"En! Thank you, Senior Sister."

Watching Ying Ziyi's figure disappear into the distance, Wang Qiao Kankan closed his eyes.At this time, Wei Bao said: "Clan sister, why don't we go play chess!"

"Clan brother, I'm a little tired, I'm going to take a nap."

"That's it, I won't bother you as a brother." Wei Bao was very tactful, and said goodbye to Wang Qiao immediately.

In the long corridor, the wooden floor is rough, the moss on the corners has been around for a long time, and the walls above the courtyard have turned yellow.This inn is located in a remote place, usually there are not many customers, and it has not been repaired for a long time.

When Wei Bao returned to his room, a black shadow fell from the corner of the wall and knelt down in front of Wei Bao.

"Little Lord."

"What happened to the matter I asked you to investigate?"

"Returning to the young master, I have checked that Li Shiqi. He is a famous madman in Gaoyang. He seems to be a member of the Confucian family, but his actions and words are different from those Confucian scholars. Li Shiqi usually drinks for pleasure, and the people who come and go They are all first-class powerful knights nearby. In addition, he has a younger brother named Li Shang."

"Is that so? Go down!" In such a short period of time, it is true that no decent information can be found.

"Yes, my lord."

The black shadow flickered and disappeared into the house.Lao An, who had been in the house all the time, said at this time: "Young master, why are you investigating this Li Shiqi?"

"I always feel that this Li Shiqi is not easy." Wei Bao shook his head, dispelling a trace of doubt in his heart, "The alliance of the Six Nations is surging. I just don't know who Xiaoyaozi is waiting for?"
