The first emperor was in Xianyang, because of the affairs of Meng Jiangnu, he thought that the Great Wall is a great national defense project, with which it can ensure the tranquility of the people in the frontier, and in addition, the Qin State built roads and canals in all directions in the world, which is also conducive to the development of agriculture and the convenience of transportation. These projects are very good, but why are so many people opposing them? One day, the First Emperor summoned the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs at the Xianyang Palace and asked them about the project. Yushi Zhang Cang said with great interest: "Your Majesty, in the construction of the country, there are two people who have made great contributions, and one of them is still a woman!" The First Emperor was shocked: "Really? Tell me who it is? Zhang Cang said: "In the materials reported by Ba County, Ba County said that in their county's Tong County, there is a widowed old woman named Qing, who is over sixty years old this year, because her family is a big family in Kaidanxue Mine, and her family background is very strong. When the canal was dug in the south, she actually bore half of the cost, and often donated money and materials, making a significant contribution to the construction of the country! ”

The First Emperor said happily: "This person is really a high wind and bright festival! Zhang Cang also said: "In addition, the county guard of Beidi also reported that there was a big merchant named Lu in Wushi County, who got rich by exchanging the silk of the Central Plains people for the livestock of the northern nomads. His cattle and sheep were never counted, but they were counted in valleys, that is, in what mountains and what valleys. This man also donated nearly 1,000 horses to the border guards free of charge, and also provided cattle and sheep to the army free of charge, and when the road and the Great Wall were built, half of the cattle that pulled the carts and the mutton that the sergeants ate were all provided by this merchant. As individuals, these two people contribute to the country like this, which is really rare! When the First Emperor heard this, he was very happy and said, "These two are my nobles, so you should immediately send someone to invite them, and I will meet them in person." Zhang Cang sent messengers to invite these two people.

Wushi County is in the south of today's Ningxia Guyuan and the northern part of Pingliang in Gansu. The First Emperor received him with great ceremonies and gave him a state banquet. It turned out that this man used to raise his own sheep, sell them when they grew up, and then use the money to buy a large number of silk fabrics, and then go to the nomads to exchange them for cattle and sheep. Later, when he had savings, he felt that the cost of raising sheep was too high and not cost-effective, so he stopped raising sheep, but used the surplus money to buy silk fabrics directly, and then took the silk fabrics to the north to exchange for the nomads' cattle, sheep and horses, so that the cattle and sheep gathered more and more, so that they were calculated in the valley. When the Qin State repaired the Great Wall, he built pens for cattle, sheep, and horses in the interior, and then stocked them, and with the protection of the Great Wall, the livestock was not lost. When there were many animals, he hired shepherds to shepherd the sheep. He hired thousands of shepherds, so the business grew bigger and bigger. The biggest one was the deal he made with King Rong. Because King Rong's family was usually dressed very roughly, now that there are silk fabrics, and the family members are also wearing extremely beautiful clothes, those concubines, princes, and princesses are also very happy. In addition, this person can talk again, and he often praises King Rong, saying that the emperor of our Qin State often greets you. In order to show goodwill, King Rong gave cattle and sheep that were several times more valuable than silk to Lu, and Lu then dedicated the cattle and sheep to the Qin army who built the Great Wall. Because the Great Wall has been repaired, there will be no tension on the border. After listening to Lu's narration, the first emperor was happy, so he gave the merchant the title of "Wushi Jun", and let him sit in a luxurious car, enter and leave Qin at will, and also participate in some major activities with the ministers of Qin. A sheep herding baby has now been knighted by the great First Emperor, which is a great honor in the world.

After another period of time, this female entrepreneur from Ba County also came to Xianyang. The First Emperor also greeted him with a very grand ceremony, and then set up a state banquet to entertain him, and asked the ministers to accompany him. It turned out that this woman's husband's family was a family that operated the Danxue mine in Tong County. She was only sixteen years old when she married into her husband's family, and two years later her husband died tragically, and she became a widow at the age of eighteen. Because she has no children and no daughters, and Qingchang is very beautiful, many sons and daughters in the township want to pursue her. There are those who covet her beauty, there are those who covet her money, and there are some swingers who are ready to forcibly occupy her and then pursue her. But Qing is not only determined, but also very smart, she is determined to run the Dansha mine, but also to keep festivals for her husband, so she insists on not marrying again. In order to protect her reputation from damage, she often let her female dependents follow her, and later formed a team of men to be her personal bodyguards. In short, whether at home or out, there are a lot of men and women, and they never let outsiders grab her handle, just to let people see that she is a chaste woman.

Dansha is a very scarce mineral resource, its uses are also very wide, can be used to make vermilion pigments, can also be used as a sedative, surgery can also be used to treat scabies and other skin diseases, plus cinnabar is both toxic and antiseptic, so the ancients believed that the gold pill made of cinnabar can make people immortal. The first emperor sought immortality, and dansha was particularly important, and he also bought a lot from her. Dansha can also refine mercury, so the first emperor also needed this kind of thing if he wanted to build the Lishan Mausoleum. At that time, the population of the county seat of Tongxian County was 50,000, and her family had 10,000 miners, as well as private armed forces to protect the mines, so Qing was the richest woman at that time. Measuring her assets in silver, it is 700 billion taels; Measured in gold, it is more than 50 billion taels. So she's rich. The First Emperor respected her and treated her with the same courtesy as his elders.

During the Qing Dynasty's stay in Xianyang, the First Emperor also accompanied her to travel around and enjoy the scenery. After staying for a while, she begged to go back. On the day of leaving, the emperor personally led the civil and military officials to send her to Shanglin Yuan. Qing was very moved, so he promised to go back and transport all the refined mercury to Lishan for the first emperor to build the Great Mausoleum, and also promised to spend a huge amount of money to help Qin build the Great Wall and the Great Road. The first emperor gave her the title of "Lady of Qing".

But this kind-hearted, selfless businesswoman, after a bumpy road, she returned home and died of illness not long after. When he died, he left a will: to donate the mine to the state free of charge. Mrs. Qing not only did her best to do a good job in the welfare of laborers, but also actively helped the poor and the poor, and made significant contributions to the prosperity and strength of her hometown, and was regarded as a living god by the villagers. When the first emperor heard about the deeds of Mrs. Qing and saw that the Siren had passed away, he felt infinite sadness in his heart. He admired this woman very much, because she never married after losing her husband, she was still very young at that time, and she had fought all her life for her husband's huge family business, and she still kept festivals from the beginning.

This is a great irony for the women of the pre-Qin period, especially the Empress Dowager Xuan Miyue and his mother Empress Dowager Zhao of the Qin State. Because Ying Zheng ascended the throne at the age of thirteen, his mother and Prime Minister Lü Buwei were autocratic, and they also had a chaotic palace, and gave birth to an illegitimate child with their lover Chang Yu, and tried to usurp power and seize the throne, which was in stark contrast to Mrs. Qing's chastity and uprightness, so the first emperor sincerely admired this old widow, and issued an edict to the magistrates, asking them to build "Huaiqing Tai" on Longzhai Mountain, the hometown of Mrs. Qing, Qianfo Zhaigou, to let future generations cherish the memory of this woman forever, and give her the title of "virgin", and also build a chastity archway for her, Commendation.

The first emperor moved him because of the story of Mrs. Qing, so he opened the historical precedent of "a martyr does not marry a second husband". This was rare in the Qin generation, and even in ancient Chinese society. However, in today's view, Mrs. Qing's observance of festivals and not marriage is just her personal behavior, which cannot be advocated among most widows. It is entirely okay for a single woman to be brave enough to pursue her happiness only on the premise of a moral code. There is a kind of herb under the stage of Huaiqing, the medicinal value is extremely high, people call this medicine ligustrum, and the flowers that bloom are called ligustrum flowers, all of which are named after her. The Song people have a poem "Privet Flower":

Ba woman can patent Dan acupoint, the first emperor called the female Huaiqing.

This flower is Qintai species, and the red jade burning branch is good at good name.

The Ming people have a poem to praise Mrs. Qing and say:

Danxue is passed down to the world, and it can be used to defend the country with wealth.

The power of the dragon ancestor is all over the world, and it is still a high platform to conceive a woman.

With these two experiences, the first emperor had greater confidence, so he once again recruited strong men from the world, to actively build the country, and more importantly, to quickly build a road to patrol, so that officials issued an edict to the world to collect more soldiers.

When the imperial court's edict arrived in Shandong, the Surabaya county guard asked Xiao He to distribute the number of people to each county. In this way, Pei County has to recruit 300 more soldiers. Xiao He knew that Fan Xu was a strong man, he cherished talents very much, and he was afraid of being recruited into the ranks of the guards, so he wrote a letter to Zhao County Order, asking him to quickly requisition Fan Xu and not let him leave Pei County. When Zhao County Ling received Xiao He's letter, he didn't dare to slack off, so he first discussed with everyone about collecting more soldiers. But Zhou Bo said: "There are not many prisoners in Pei County, and no matter what, there is no way to recruit three hundred people." Zhao Xianling was worried about this matter, and he couldn't think of a good way for a few days.

Suddenly, one day, the county lieutenant Wan Qian suddenly came to the county order and said: "Let's first recruit strong laborers according to the book list, and if it is a person who resists the conscription, send messengers to arrest it, and now there is only this way." The county decree said: "The resistance of the common people is very great, and many people run away when they hear that they want to recruit more pawns, even if they go to catch it, they can't catch it?" The county lieutenant said, "I have a solution." The prefectural order asked what the solution was. The county lieutenant said, "Didn't Lord Xiao let you requisition Fan Xu, this is great." Pei County's last martial arts competition, Fan Hao made his temperament go. Now the lord first summoned Fan Hao to the county, and then appointed him as the prison officer, and let him and Zhou Bo go around to catch the people who resisted the conquest, and with the ability of the two of them, three hundred people could be recruited casually. In this way, Lord Xiao is also satisfied, and the task of the county guard has been completed, why not do it? When Zhao Feng heard this, he was still worried, so he said: "When I saw that butcher, I was very unhappy, how could I let him serve as a prison guard again?" The county lieutenant said: "My lord, now the imperial court frequently collects pawns, and there will be a next time when it is collected, and the people are unwilling to be pawns, but the laws and regulations of the court are extremely strict." If the three hundred guards are not in order, what should I do if the county keeper asks for the crime? You summoned Fan Hao to reuse, firstly, to satisfy Xiao He, and secondly, to complete this drudgery, is it really the best of both worlds? Zhao Feng thought about it and agreed.

But he thought about it for a long time, who should he summon Fan Xu, and he was worried again. The county lieutenant said: "I heard that Cao Xiancheng and Fan Xu have a good relationship, send Cao Shen to summon Fan Xu, Fan Xu will definitely come." Zhao County's order came to Cao Shen and said to him: "Fan Xu is a strong man, last time he left, this county wants to summon him to the county as a prison officer, what do you think?" Cao Shen said: "My lord, I know this person, I'm afraid he won't come." Zhao Feng said: "He remembers my hatred, but this time it is Lord Xiao He's intention, you go and summon him back now, this county must reuse him, and never break his word." Cao Shen couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree. The prefectural ordinance then had people go around posting notices for the county to recruit new officers.

Cao Shen is a wealthy official in Pei County, he has broad cheeks and tiger eyebrows, black hair and long beard, and often wears a black official uniform, like an iron tower, and his body is very majestic. Because Cao Shen used to manage prisons, he was very familiar with the provisions of the law, and because he often dealt with criminals, he also practiced martial arts himself. On this day, he walked out of the hall, then walked to the stable, led a horse and walked out of the yamen to Fengyi.

When Cao Shen came to Fanjiazhuang in Fengyi, he inquired about Fan Xu's home, and a villager said: "The evil Han is selling meat in the market town at the entrance of the village." Cao Shen went to the town to find Fan Xu. But when he came to the store, he didn't see Fan Xu, so he asked Xiao Er, "Where is Fan Zhuangshi?" The shopkeeper said: "Fan Ye has never seen anyone from the government!" Cao Shen thought to himself: This must have been ordered by Fan Xu, and he deliberately avoided it. This kind of straight man can't beg him to come out to meet, he can only provoke him to come out. called Xiao Er and said, "You go to Fan Zhuangshi immediately, I have something important to see him." "The shopkeeper went to find Fan Xu. But after a long time, I didn't see Fan Xu's shadow at all. Cao Shen grabbed a small guy again and said: "Go and call Fan Xu, otherwise you will smash the store and ask him to do a loss-making business!" Seeing that the momentum was not right, the little maid went to look for the master again. But after going for a long time, I still didn't see Fan Hao coming.
