Like last time, Bai Gui was from the land of Hexi from Zhongshan to Wei, passing through Qin to Kunshan.

The car is familiar with the road, and it will only take ten days to reach the boundary of the Kunshan Mountain.

Ever since he entered the territory of the Qin State, Bai Gui had clearly felt that the Qin State was undergoing earth-shaking changes.

In agriculture, there seems to be less barren land. The high-quality land that can be planted is basically planted with crops. There are many people who farm the land, and those who can work have come out.

According to local farmers, land ownership in Qin was adjusted, taxes were reduced, and people were willing to diversify their land.

In the past, most of the land was occupied by hereditary aristocrats, who collected high taxes. So! People don't want to farm. Farming is not cost-effective, it is equivalent to giving the landlord (hereditary noble) a dry job, it is better not to farm.

After the policy is liberalized, there will be more people farming.

When the people have a way to live, they are willing to have children. So! There are significantly more newborns in the Qin State. The people have no way to live, and there is a lot of pressure to survive, who wants to have children? If you can't support yourself, who wants to have children?

In addition to the changes in this aspect, the Qin State has also obviously changed militarily. And! Much has changed.

On the border between Qin and Wei, there were obviously many more patrolling soldiers. The soldiers' equipment is also very sophisticated. The mental state and military skills of the soldiers have also changed significantly.

It can be seen! These soldiers are not soldiers who eat for nothing, they are all special forces who have been specially trained.

Later, Bai Gui learned that the Qin State had a complete reward system for soldiers. As long as you pass the assessment and reach a certain level, you can get a certain reward.

For example! When your military ability reaches the rank of an officer, your family can receive a piece of land from the local landowner (hereditary noble).

And this land, you don't need to pay taxes to the landlord, you just need to pay taxes to the king according to the regulations.

In the past, the land belonged to the hereditary aristocracy, and the peasants had to pay taxes to the hereditary nobles, the landowners. And the landlord paid taxes to the king according to the ancestral system, so! Landowners had to pay more taxes in order to ensure their luxury.

Right now! It means that there are no landowners, only kings.

In order to improve the lives of their families, the soldiers of the Qin State gave themselves up, trained hard, and tried to pass the assessment. And then! Let the family get a piece of land.

So! In just a few years, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Qin State has increased not a little, but a lot!

Exaggeration! The ordinary soldiers of the Qin State were equivalent to the abilities of centurions or thousand-necks of other countries. It is equivalent to the level of squad leader and company commander in modern army.

More exaggerated! All of them are special forces.

Without a reward system, soldiers are not only reluctant to train, but also reluctant to fight. What does it mean to go to war? It means to send to death.

The army has a reward mechanism, but it is to die? What's the matter? As long as you die in battle, according to the new policy of the Qin state, you can get a generous pension. Of course! No cash for you! The pension is the land.

Other words! As long as you are fighting for your country and you die in battle, your family can get a piece of land. According to the size of your credit, you can decide the quality of the soil and the size of the land you are given.

It is precisely because of this series of reward policies that the soldiers of the Qin State are not afraid of death when they fight, and they are all very murderous. On the battlefield, kill the enemy when you see it. As long as you kill one or a few people, you will die a well-deserved death. You are not only sacrificing your life for the country, but also contributing to your loved ones, and your family has a piece of land that can support itself.

Entering the Mt. Kuo, Bai Gui and his entourage clearly felt it: the Mt. Kuo today is no longer the Mt. Kun of the past.

In the past, Kunshan was a place where no one managed. Except for the levels, you can move around freely.

And now in the mountains, you can also move around freely. But! But there are a pair of eyes watching you secretly. If you are a spy, the consequences are conceivable. If you come to Kushan to live in seclusion or visit friends, someone will secretly follow you.

Before reaching the recess where Baimei lives in seclusion, at the intersection, there are guards hidden in the shadows. The guards jumped out and welcomed the group in.

In order to ensure the safety of Baimei's mother and son, Gongsun Ying sent his own cronies to protect him secretly.

Baimei is fatter than before, and seems to have grown a little taller. After getting married, she has become mature and is no longer the crazy girl she used to be. You can see it too! may have been trained by her husband Shang Ying.

In the recesses of the mountains, there are no people who are martingale. All the guards are the people he arranged.

The guards sent by Shang Ying were only responsible for the only way into the recess. When they get to a certain place, they don't come in.

In normal times, as hunters, they live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, making a living by hunting. Of course! Hunting is a cover-up.

My nephew can't walk or speak. But! Will laugh. As long as you tease him, he will smile at you, very cute little boy.

Seeing his nephew, Bai Gui shook his head and smiled bitterly.

I thought: What's the matter? My own children are only so big! This nephew is about the same size as an uncle and aunt.

After staying here in Baimei for three days, Shang Ying secretly came to visit.

Because he invited his father-in-law to come to Kunshan, so! He knew the general itinerary of the old man. Therefore! He adjusted his work schedule, and on the pretext of inspecting Hangu Pass and secretly training troops, he quietly came to the mountains to meet his father-in-law.

When he was in Wei before, Bai Gui had met Shang Ying. At that time, Shang Ying was just a small person, and he was an entourage behind his uncle's acne. So! Baekyu didn't care.

At that time, Shang Ying, who had just arrived, did not get the attention of his uncle. Although he was talented, no one noticed him.

Today's Shang Ying is not tall, but very strong. It's not like a civilian official, but like a military general. He is dressed in casual clothes, and there is nothing special about him. It's just his eyes, very focused. In terms of behavior, it is obvious! Bound by etiquette and religion, in a proper manner.

Bai Gui was high above, and Shang Ying knelt on his knees and kowtowed to the old man.

Bai Mei also came over with her son in her arms, and the family kowtowed to the elders.

Because Baekyu didn't come when he got married before, so! This time the etiquette is indispensable.

"Hehehe! Left long! Get up! Get up! I can't stand it, my husband! Hehehe! ......" Bai Gui smiled.

When his guards saw this, they all laughed.

To know! What is the identity of Shang Yang today? He is the left chief of the Qin State, under one person and above ten thousand. In addition to kowtowing to Qin Xiaogong and others, he usually kowtows to him by others.

Shang Ying thanked his father-in-law before he got up.

When he came to Baimei's seclusion, he didn't bring an escort to him. All the guards are outside the mountain. Only a few cronies followed, but they were also waiting at the junction.

The place where Bai Mei lives in seclusion cannot be known to the people of the Qin State. At that time, Shang Ying had a premonition that something was wrong.

But! For the sake of his career, he had to continue the change.

It is incumbent upon him to change the fate of mankind!

At that time, Shang Ying was already ready to die.

If you have been in the officialdom of the Qin State for a long time, and have dealt with the old magnates of the Qin State for a long time, if you can't see the consequences of yourself, you are not considered a wise person.
