Think to yourself, no one can control you! There is a kind, who dares to say it so that the First Emperor can hear it? None of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty said anything, so they dared to slander it, so a little bit of courage!

Yun Xiaoshui said slowly: "Your Majesty! Wechen Thanksgiving is Thanksgiving, a must! But you can't really take care of a lot of things! Wechen knows that he has no big management talent! If there is something to do, please ask Your Majesty to personally arrange it for Wechen, and Wechen can only be the one who actually does things.

It's like on the battlefield, Weichen can only be a general, and that handsome man also asks Your Majesty to be a general! You have to arrange specific things to do all the time! ”

"Hahaha...... Does this still need your little Aiqing to say? Of course I'm handsome in command! It's just that I asked you by name! ”

"That's good! Your Majesty! How about allowing Wechen to plan a big event for you? ”

"Speak!"

"First of all, Your Majesty is blessed with all the heavens, and it is reasonable to expand the territory again, increase the coast of the land, take Donghu, Goguryeo, and Fuyu in the east, until you occupy Sushen and reach the seashore. The Northern Expedition to the Xiongnu reached the first line of Yanran Mountain and Ortai Mountain. Conquer Yueshi and Qiang in the west, and occupy Qiong by the sea in the south.

Secondly, give Wechen three years, and Wechen will use three years to help His Majesty build a longer and larger Great Wall in three years, from the seashore in the east, along the Heilongjiang River to the west, through Yanran Mountain, Ortai Mountain, until the west of the lake shore of the Broken Leaf City. ”

"What? Xiao Aiqing, didn't you suddenly get 'crazy heartlessness' or 'crazy heart'? Qin Shi Huang was so shocked that he stood up suddenly, stared at Yun Xiaoshui with wide eyes and asked.

"Hehehe...... Your Majesty! Wechen is not sick! It's just that these ideas, or grand blueprints, must be based on the prosperity of the people and the strength of the country. Now that we in Daqin have found the road to make the people rich and the country strong, and have stepped on it, it is time to make great strides on the road of enriching the people and strengthening the country.

Therefore, I beg your majesty to order the dismissal of half of the servants, and the waiver of half of the servitude and taxes, so that the common people can fully recuperate. After all walks of life are in ruins, and the people are rich, they can immediately become strong and establish the Great Qin Iron Cavalry, a new type of armed tiger army. At that time, why can't we expand our territory and be invincible? ”

"Hahaha...... Good! Obviously, Qin Shi Huang's ambition was rekindled, and the passion of swallowing mountains and rivers was induced by Yun Xiaoshui's grand blueprint. However, just as the First Emperor was about to agree to Yun Xiaoshui's proposal, several voices of opposition emerged.

"Your Majesty! You can't reduce or exempt conscription or taxes......"

Yun Xiaoshui became angry when he heard it, Daqin's short life and Qin Shihuang's bad reputation were especially ruined in the hands of these unambitious and incompetent officials, who would only compete for power and profit, deceit, and selfishness, and were not selfless and virtuous people who cared about the world at all!

He shouted, "Why not?" Half of the servants can continue the big project, and half of the taxes can maintain the operation of Daqin, so that Daqin will become rich and strong step by step, why not? Haven't you seen a sea change in the counties where this has been done? ”

"Yes! Xiao Aiqing is right! I also saw the chapter, those counties are the same as Xiao Aiqing's three counties of Fengyi, and they quickly became rich, one household arrived at two or three households in other places, and there was enough food and clothing, wouldn't the people be happy? ”

The First Emperor was very pleased when he said it, and Yun Xiaoshui, like everyone else, heard the First Emperor's approval.

However, there was still a discordant voice ringing out, "Your Majesty! The re-digging and widening of the Spirit Canal in South Vietnam requires servants, so it cannot be reduced; It costs a lot of money and grain to open a canal, so it is not possible to reduce taxes. ”

This is the chorus of Li Si and Zhao Gao, with accompaniment from Wang Ben, Wang Chong and others.

Yun Xiaoshui was stunned for a moment, "Open the Spirit Canal again?" Why don't I know, young master? ”

This Ling Canal is an artificial canal connecting the Xiang River and the Li River in Xing'an County, Xiang County. It was a transportation line dug by Shi Lu sent by the First Emperor during the Great Qinping Baiyue War. It enabled the Great Qin army and logistical material resources to reach Lingnan directly through the waterway, which made the entire Lingnan region soon included in the scope of the Great Qin Empire.

Yun Xiaoshui looked at Li Si angrily, then at the First Emperor, and asked, "Isn't the transportation mission of the Lingqu over?" What else are you doing? For irrigation? Then ...... There is not much project to open a north canal, even if it is to widen the south canal, it will not take many servants, let alone spend a few dollars! ”

"What...... What the? What do you say, little master craftsman? Li Si said with a glaring at the dead fish.

To be honest, Li Si is talented, and he also contributed to the annexation of the six countries of Great Qin, but his personality is not approved by Yun Xiaoshui, especially when he killed his fellow brother Han Fei, and he was in the same stream with people like Zhao Gao, which was even more despised by Yun Xiaoshui from the bottom of his heart!

Yun Xiaoshui raised his head and said again: "Opening the Ling Canal again, whether it is adding the North Canal or widening the South Canal, it is not a big project, it will not take many servants, and it will not cost a few dollars!" ”

"Hahaha...... I want to use it for irrigation, so that the Pearl River water system in the South Vietnam region will be linked with the Yangtze River water system, develop production, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and forever get rid of the situation of war and strife! Can Xiao Aiqing help me realize this wish? ”

"Your Majesty! Don't listen to him! The Xiangjiang River and the Lijiang River are one south and one north, and the places close to each other are lofty mountains and mountains, and the excavation project is extremely arduous. Li Si's words were quite harsh, and he directly despised Yun Xiaoshui.

"What do you mean, Master Li? You're trying to say that I'm not doing more! However, today I will also tell you that I will take over this important task, and I will not requisition servants, and I will guarantee that the project task will be completed in the period of time that His Majesty wishes, with quality and quantity! ”

"Wow-"

This time there was an uproar, and no one spoke. No one spoke, no one spoke, and they all stared at Yun Xiaoshui with their eyes open. Including Qin Shi Huang.

It took a long time for someone to speak, and the First Emperor stood behind the dragon case and stretched his neck and asked Yun Xiaoshui: "Xiao Aiqing!" Little Aiqing! You, you, you really don't have to be 'crazy'? ”

Seeing Yun Xiaoshui blinking, nodding, and showing that he was definitely not sick, the First Emperor seemed to breathe a long sigh of relief, recovered the upper part of his body, returned to his seat and sat down, and said, "Xiao Aiqing, are you sure to take over the task of opening the spiritual canal as you said?" ”

"I would like to share your worries for Your Majesty! Wechen can do it! ”

"Good! I'll leave it to the little national teacher to take full charge of the matter of the Lingqu! It's up to you to use people and money to transfer troops! But ......" The agitated First Emperor suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "You tell me that you don't need a servant, how can you dig a ditch?" ”

Yun Xiaoshui smiled and said, "Back to Your Majesty!" It's not that people don't need it, it's that immigrants dig it with pawns and displaced farmers, fishermen, and mountain people! ”

"Oh—you have to relocate the people to South Vietnam and open up large areas of wasteland into fertile land, which will naturally feed many people! That's great! I've got your back! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I ask Your Majesty to allow Weichen to call in 50,000 soldiers and immigrate 100,000! ”

"Exactly! Which army does Xiao Aiqing want to call? Where are the common people migrated? ”

"The army of the little general who slaughtered the wolf, borrowed 50,000, and returned him 50,000 afterwards, but it must be stated in advance that when it is returned, it will be the army of the Southwest Garrison Nairui!"

"What do you mean?" Even the First Emperor couldn't understand Yun Xiaoshui's meaning for a while.
