This idea of the merchants of Chu State was quickly agreed by most of the people, and they also prepared some funds to invest in this project. This kind of action of the merchants of the Chu State invisibly allowed Shang Wen's original plan to be carried out.

If attacked by land, Qin would need to develop eastward and annex the entire Chu state, and then turn south to advance. If such a strategy is implemented, it will be quite difficult. First of all, the Qin state had to shift its strategic goals. Then it was to concentrate all the national strength of the Qin State to integrate resources and expand eastward. Expansion is not just about military expansion. And there are also a series of military and diplomatic adjustments. This is a considerable adjustment.

Especially in terms of diplomacy, Qin must shift its focus to annex Korea first, and the two countries of Wei can further border abroad, not only that, but in diplomacy, it is necessary to appease Zhao and send a certain number of troops to protect Qin's eastward expansion from the harassment of its flank Zhao, and then go all out south. The cost of such a road is considerable. Moreover, after the occupation of the Chu State, it will take one to two years to repair before it can go all out south. It's quite time-consuming.

Moreover, the roads in the south are steep and densely jungled, which brings considerable inconvenience to military operations, and the pressure on road transportation and supplies is quite large. In fact, it is true that the Qin State used troops to the north and south to drain the overall strength of the entire Qin Empire, and this strength led to the emptiness of the entire Guanzhong, which was catastrophic. So much so that in the end the Qin State did not have a decent main force to resist the attack of the rebel army.

What Shang Wen has to do now is to avoid such a situation, there is only one main direction of the Qin State, and the other directions can be secondary, but there must be one main direction. This is necessary for the development of reason.

No one would particularly care about the actions of the merchants of the Chu State. Because this can only be told after historical merit has been made. Now it will take time to precipitate.

In Qin, people were busy celebrating the New Year. Time flies very quickly, especially the New Year's atmosphere of the Qin State is getting stronger and stronger.

The first is to paste couplets. Shang Wen was the first to start the custom of pasting Spring Festival couplets, especially the manufacture of paper and the development of the printing industry. It is worth mentioning that the progress of chemical dyes in the Qin State has allowed the Qin State to have various colors of paper, and there is naturally no shortage of red paper.

When the people of Qin celebrate the New Year, they will post couplets to express their festivities. Especially red, that festive atmosphere. Every store, a large family, and every ordinary person will put red paper in front of their doors.

However, at this time, the Qin couplet did not have the meaning of writing words, because Shangwen did not write words when he pasted the couplet, and the Qin people naturally did not paste the couplet with words when they imitated it.

Although it is red paper, it is pasted in every house, and it is naturally red all over the city. In addition to pasting couplets. There are also dumplings. Steamed rice cakes. Dumplings are called water bags in the Qin country, and the bags are homophonic to Bao, so they are also called "Water Treasures." "The name of the dumpling has not yet been called.

The dumplings come from the rich flour of the Qin State Guanzhong, Hetao, and the region. Pasta has become a staple food for the Qin people's three meals a day. There are many ways to eat dumplings, for example, Koreans invented the steaming method. The people of Zhao, especially in the north, invented fried dumplings. And the people of Chu obviously have a great talent for cooking.

The original Korean food stalls began to be replaced by some Chu people's Chu food. The people of Chu invented fried dumplings. In particular, they developed another type of pasta, steamed buns, which became the first steamed dumplings to be sold to the Qin people as early as they were popular.

In addition to dumplings, there are also rice cakes, and the frequency of rice consumption by the Qin people is not very high. Although the yield of rice is not as large as that of wheat. This shows that the northern Central Plains is still the center of Chinese civilization. But in terms of rice consumption methods, the people of Chu want to find the best way to eat it.

Glutinous rice, the Chu people processed and steamed it into cakes and sold them to the Qin people, the Qin people because they did not have these foods, and they were particularly cherished, especially the pastries made of glutinous rice were crystal clear, very good-looking, so the Qin people often bought them to worship their ancestors, so during the Chinese New Year, the Qin people bought this glutinous rice cake to worship their ancestors. At the time of sale, people began to abbreviate this glutinous rice cake as rice cake, which means that the cake is specially used for the New Year.

In addition to these, there are other foods in the Qin State, such as oil cakes and sesame cakes. Wealthy families also buy wine or red wine for sacrifices, and this kind of sacrifice is already quite rich. You must know that the Qin State has just conquered the Western Regions, and the grape technology of the Western Regions is still in the agricultural laboratory of the Qin State. The amount of wine consumed is quite small.

In addition to wine and red wine, there is also liquor, however, the degree of liquor began to diversify, from 20 degrees to 72 degrees, and the high degree of liquor is suitable for the people of Zhao Guo. The wine-making technology of the Qin people was also developed in the southern state of Chu, and the Chu people invented another wine-making technology, that is, the use of koji to make wine, however, this kind of koji wine was not popularized on a large scale. And the Qin people were only interested in this fragrant wine. Especially in the army, the army provides low-alcohol alcohol, because they have to keep a certain sober mind to fight.

The Qin people had the habit of drinking alcohol before the Great War. However, there was no guarantee that the soldiers would be drunk, and for this reason, the alcohol content provided by the Qin army could not exceed 25 degrees. Moreover, the amount of alcohol should be strictly controlled, and drinking alcohol is to embolden soldiers and maintain a state of pre-war excitement.

However, there is no such provision in the rear. Folk can drink a lot of alcohol. The advent of alcohol meant the emergence of a large surplus of grain in the Qin state.

In addition to these, there is also the fact that the Qin people are relatively rich in meat. The Qin people had the north and the west as their meat base to supply the meat needs of the Qin state, beef replaced pork, and dog meat became an important meat variety of the Qin state. The law also changed the rules for the slaughter of beef cattle because of new labor inputs in the fields, such as the use of slaves and tractors.

In addition, there is another point that the demand for meat storage in the Chinese New Year in Qin is particularly large. This is due to the improvement of refrigerator technology in the Qin State. This improvement comes from an invention by Shangwen. The use of liquid ammonia as a refrigerant is an important reason for the emergence of refrigerators, but liquid ammonia is very corrosive, which will lead to the explosion of refrigerators, so this makes Qin's refrigerator sales and popularization suffer a great loss. Scientists are looking for a solution that can completely solve this refrigerator. But they are mainly focused on the re-selection of materials.

Shangwen, on the other hand, borrowed one of Einstein's inventions. This invention was once used in the river nuclear power plant, and this technology is the electromagnetic pump. Electromagnetic phenomena are used to drive the flow of liquids by adding liquid metals, such as liquid sodium, to the liquid. This is a good solution to the problem of this time bomb.

However, this refrigerator still does not sell very well. The main reason is that the sound of the solenoid pump becomes buzzing over time. The Qin people also called him "Hum Refrigerator." "This kind of refrigerator people will put it in the basement, or a special freezer, or a large one, or a butcher shop. Large households will also make special noise treatment for this kind of refrigerator, because the sound of this refrigerator is too noisy.

When it has to be said. The advent of this refrigerator solves the problem of meat storage. Most importantly. People found a safe refrigerator. But this also brings another bad phenomenon. That is, the Qin State should reserve a large amount of meat to eat during the New Year. And people can't consume so much meat in a short period of time. And so it goes. Meat is wasted.

In addition to food, it is clothing. Almost all Qin people will buy a set of clothes to celebrate the New Year during the New Year. Wearing new clothes has become the standard for the New Year. And the big families won't buy it. Rather, it is made to order. Moreover, the styles of the Qin people began to absorb some exotic styles to show their uniqueness. For example, the pointed shape of the Western Regions boots. The round neck design of the clothes and so on.

In addition to these, there are some big outdoor activities. Sporting events take center stage. Auto racing is far more interesting than horse racing. The most important thing is that the car is fast. And the running time is long. The sound of the engine is enough to get excited.

In addition to the car races, there are cycling, horse racing, running, pistol design races, rifle shooting races, flying races and more. These recreational activities enriched the lives of the Qin people. However, these games are less interesting. Women don't pay much attention to this. They think it's a man's business.

Women are more concerned about color. For example, beautiful lights. In the state of Qin. There are many types of lanterns. The Chu people made Chu lanterns out of paper. This lamp uses candles. The light is dim. But it is soft. This Chu woman is generally beautiful. And this kind of lamp looks very good when it is put into Weishui and drifting.

South Korea uses a different kind of lamp. This lamp is wrapped in an oval spherical shape using red yarn. Candles can be used. Light bulbs can also be used. Since this lamp is used in the palace of the king of Han. Therefore, it is also called the palace lamp. This kind of lamp was specially provided for the display of the Qin State. These come with strong handicrafts.

The Qin state, on the other hand, made extensive use of new technologies. This technology is neon. Because it can change different colors. So. It is mainly used in commercial night markets. This kind of light makes the business district of Qin look like a red light district. Full of camouflage. But this kind of lamp is unique to the Qin State.

Except for the lights. It's fireworks. But to the fireworks. There was a critical voice in the Qin state. The state of Qin was a martial state. Especially after the advent of gunpowder weapons. The supply of gunpowder to the Qin state has always been used for military purposes. But the use of smokeless gunpowder allowed black powder to be used commercially. But even so. The Qin people were still opposed. They believed that the charge of one fireworks bomb was enough to make a grenade. Rather than wasting in vain. It's better to make weapons.
