Xu Fu's hands trembled a little, he looked in the direction in the distance, even the smell of hometown wafting in the wind.

The ship soon stopped at the shore.

Di Lun on the side walked over, looking at the city with curiosity on his face.

"Is this Daqin?"

Xu Fu shook his head slightly, and then nodded again.

Shaking his head means that this is not "Great Qin", and nodding his head means that this is "Great Qin".

Seeing that Di Lun didn't understand, he immediately explained: "Qin came out from the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan, if you ask "Qin", then only when you arrive in Xianyang City, you guess you can feel Qin's demeanor."

"This place was originally the hometown of the Qi Kingdom, but now it is the territory of my Great Qin, and it should be Linzi County." 、

He said with a smile: "Qin swept the six countries and returned to himself, so he can be regarded as Great Qin."

Di Lun looked into the distance, and he saw that those soldiers had an incomparably sharp murderous aura, like an indomitable knife.

"I see."

"How long are we going to stay here?"

"I can't wait to pay my respects to the First Emperor."

Emperor Lun wanted to visit the First Emperor, on the one hand, because he wanted to surrender, and on the other hand, he wanted to see him.

What is this person who destroyed his own "Shang" back then and made their ancestors go far away to the Yin Shang Continent.

He was grateful.

Xu Fu thought for a moment, and then said, "The county guard here should be a person I don't know, after seeing him, we will make a little supply, and we will set off."

"It won't stay long."

As he spoke, he glanced at the soldier standing below him, and looked in a certain direction.

"People seem to be coming, you don't have to go down, this Wang Kande is not a good thing, I won't have any good intentions when I see you."

Xu Fu explained to Di Lun: "Wang Kande was originally from the Qi country, and now he should still have the Qi country in his heart."

"I'm afraid he's bad for you."

King Yin nodded, he didn't mind getting off the boat or not, it didn't make much difference to him.

After Xu Fu tidied up his clothes, he looked at the people around him.

"Get ready to get off the boat."

"Tell the soldiers that they can get off the ship to buy supplies, and we won't stay here for too long."

After saying this, Xu Fu walked down the boat.

As soon as he got off the boat, he saw a familiar figure, and Xu Fu's eyes were a little curious.

How could this person be here?

And the person who was already walking in this direction in the distance also smiled, and then walked in front of Xu Fu.

"Mr. Xu, are you back?"

When Xu Fu returned from Fusang, he stayed in the Baijia Palace for a while, and he also talked about the scenery of various places with many students in the Baijia Palace.

Therefore, some students in Baijiagong also call Xu Fu "sir".

Xu Fu was a little stunned: "Huo Shi? How did you get here?"

"Aren't you the county guard in Langya County?"

Huo Shi smiled gently, looked at Xu Fu Siwen and said, "Mr. Xu doesn't know that in the year since you left, many things have happened in Penglaizhou."

"I've been transferred to this Linzi County."

Penglaizhou?

Hearing an unfamiliar word, Xu Fu was even more dazed.

"Isn't this Linzi County? How did it become Penglaizhou?"

Huo Shi looked at Xu Fu and smiled with his eyebrows: "This is a long story, let's talk slowly in the future."

"Your Majesty has integrated the three counties of Langya County, Linzi County, and Jiaodong County into a new place, which is Penglaizhou, and under Penglaizhou, all counties are still free."

"Now the governor of Penglaizhou is a teacher, and His Majesty also specially sent the eldest son to be the teacher's deputy."

Teacher?

Xu Fu didn't react for a while, and when he reacted, his face was full of surprise.

"You mean, sir, is here?"

Huo Shi nodded slightly.

Xu Fu immediately laughed: "I see, I see."

"I'm stupid, too, there is such a huge change in this place, who else can do it except for the gentleman's action?"

"Since both Sir and you are here, I must have to stay here for a while longer."

He turned his head and instructed the people around him, "Go and tell the crew that you don't have to be in such a hurry."

After finishing speaking, he slapped his head again, and immediately said, "Huo boy, you wait first."

"I brought back a 'King Yin' from the Yin Shang Continent, and I am on that ship now."

"I thought that the county keeper of this place was still an old man from Wang Kande, so I didn't let him get off the boat, so I'll call him down now and take him to meet Mr."

Huo Shi immediately nodded: "That's fine."

........

on the boat

Di Lun looked at Xu Fu who had gone and returned, with a little dazed on his face: "Xu Envoy Ling, why did you come back so quickly?"

Xu Fu smiled on his face: "King Yin, isn't the purpose of your coming to Great Qin to meet His Majesty the First Emperor, and to get His Majesty the First Emperor to agree to you as an ally of Great Qin, and let Great Qin help you?"

"You don't have a good chance of succeeding, but if you can convince someone and get their support, you will be able to succeed."

Di Lun nodded slightly: "I know, you said that there is a very famous person in Great Qin, called "Chen Ke".

"He has a lot of say in Great Qin."

"What's wrong with that person?"

Xu Fu immediately nodded: "I just got off the boat and saw Huo Shi, a student of Mr., who was transferred from Langya County to Linzi County as the county guard."

"In the year I left Daqin, this place already belonged to Penglaizhou."

"Mr. Chen, you are in Penglai Chau at this time."

Di Lun frowned slightly: "But, isn't it degrading to be sent to this place from the imperial court?"

"Can this Mr. Chen still have that much energy?"

Xu Fu looked at Di Lun with an unfathomable look: "King Yin, you don't know anything about this."

"As far as I know."

"Although Mr. came to this Penglai Continent as the governor, this "state" is a pilot set up specifically for Mr. to let Mr. experiment with his things, and then promote the whole of Daqin."

"Moreover, Sir is not just a "Governor", but also a "Governor."

"Fengchang is the head of the Nine Qings, so whether it is rank or power, Mr. is higher than in the past."

"What's more, do you know who the deputy sent by His Majesty the First Emperor for Mr. is who?"

Tillen asked curiously, "Who is it?"

Xu Fu said, "It is His Royal Highness Fusu, the eldest son of my Great Qin, that is, His Majesty the future Second Emperor."

"Now, do you know the status of the gentleman?"

Di Lun immediately got up and asked the prince of a country to be his deputy, such a person must be very important, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to achieve this point.

He immediately said, "I see."

"Please also ask Xu Lingling to introduce me!"

........

Inside the Doge's Palace

Chen Ke looked at the letter in front of him and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Fusu, look at this."

Fusu picked up the letter from the side, and then looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more surprised he felt.

"Teacher, in just one year, Fusang has mined so much silver ore there?"

"If it is at this rate, then the teacher's plan can be implemented in advance."

Fusu had seen Chen Ke's plan.

In Chen Ke's plan, Daqin would gradually replace the current round shape with three coins

Half a tael of square holes.

Or, rather, not a substitute, but a supplement.

The original round square hole half a tael will continue to be used, but it will be used in a different way.

Forging a round coin is still made of copper, but it becomes solid and much lighter.

The purchasing power of this copper coin must not be too high, so it is complicated when it comes to large transactions.

So on top of that, there will be two other coins gradually.

One is silver coins and the other is gold coins.

After the implementation of these two currencies, Daqin's monetary policy will gradually change again, changing to "replacing gold, silver and copper with iron".

That is, after a certain point, the material from which the coins are forged will be converted into iron, but the numbers on it are different and represent different values.

After that, "paper money" was used to completely replace "metal money".

When Fusu first saw Chen Ke's economic plan, he was instantly shocked by this whimsical idea.

Even now, he was amazed.

Of course, this substitution is to be carried out gradually, according to the "productivity level" that the teacher said.

Although Fusu didn't understand what the level of productivity had to do with "money" and "economy", he felt that it was right to listen to the teacher.

Another obstacle to this economic plan is the amount of gold and silver.

Although the amount of gold and silver found in the territory of Great Qin today is large, it is not able to support the economic system of a large empire.

Therefore, these things cannot be released rashly.

Therefore, economic policies can only be implemented after a large number of silver deposits have been discovered.

Today's silver mines from Fuso meet this requirement.

As soon as these silver mines arrive, they can start to forge copper and silver coins gradually.

Chen Ke nodded slightly.

He envisioned that the silver mines from Fuso would solve this problem, and then he would begin to implement his plan for an economic system.

Politics, economics, culture.

Any period, any era, any country, any place.

Everything can be roughly divided into these three categories.

Especially in this backward antiquity.

He has changed the local political structure of Penglaizhou, slightly revised it, and turned it into an institution that can continue to add and develop.

Once the structure of the local administration is clear, it is time to move on to another aspect.

Economy.

In ancient times, the economy was divided into two aspects: agriculture and handicrafts, but in fact, there was another most basic thing that restricted the entire economic ecology.

"Currency"

How can you develop an economy without money?

Money is like the marrow of the economy, just as people can't live without blood, and the economy can't live without money.

Money is the concrete vehicle of the economy.

If we want to reform and develop the economy, we must first increase the productive forces, and if we want to improve the productive forces, we must first reform the currency.

Only a clear monetary policy, a policy that can motivate many craftsmen, can motivate them to make changes and make inventions.

It's like the carrot hanging in front of a donkey.

What is the so-called thing in a person's life?

Money, power.

These are the two things that constitute the most basic life of a person, even if you say that you live for your ideals, but your ideals can be realized without money?

Is it possible without power?

You say that your dream is to be a scientist, so can you do research without money?

Without the right you can study with peace of mind?

It's just that there is another thing in front of Chen Ke now.

If you want to forge coins, you must have skills.

Today's technology doesn't reach that level, making coins smooth and flat and beautiful.

And a very ugly coin cannot reflect the national prestige of Great Qin.

This copper coin is unlikely to be eliminated in a short period of time.

According to Chen Ke's plan, copper coins, the most basic monetary unit, must exist for at least 30 years.

Within 30 years, the vast majority of the people still used copper coins to buy goods.

Even after 30 years, the copper coin will not disappear.

This is the "most basic protection"

Therefore, the first edition of the copper coin had to be so beautiful that it would shock everyone as soon as it was put into its hands, and it would not look very rough decades later.

Of course, in the process of use, with the continuous progress of technology, it will also continue to improve.

But that doesn't mean the initial version can be perfunctory.

Chen Ke pressed his forehead, looking in his mind for the technology that could be used in this era.

It's a dilemma.

Just when Chen Ke was embarrassed, Fusu walked in with a surprised face.

"Teacher, the people below said that Xu Envoy Ling has returned, and he is now outside the Governor's Palace!"

Xu Envoy Order?

For a moment, Chen Ke did not come out of the complicated memory, and was still a little dazed: "Who?"

Xu Envoy Order?

Xu Fu?

All of a sudden, Chen Ke woke up instantly, he looked at Fusu and said, "Quick, let them in!"

Fusu nodded immediately, but after a while, Xu Fu, Huo Shi, and Di Lun walked in.

The moment he saw Chen Ke, Xu Fu immediately walked quickly in front of Chen Ke, his face full of excitement: "After nearly two years of going to sea, I finally saw Mr. again!"

"I'm back, sir!"

Chen Ke looked at Xu Fu excitedly, and his face was also a little excited and emotional.

From Xu Fu's body, he really felt that time was like an arrow, and he also felt that he had been here for three years!

He immediately said, "Get up."

"You went this time, but you found the Yin Shang Continent?"

Xu Fu said with a serious face: "Xu Fu has lived up to his mission, he has found the Yin Shang Continent, and found the original Yin Shang remnants."

He looked at the people around him and said, "This is King Yin, he came all the way to meet His Majesty."

"It's also to seek Daqin's help."

King Yin?

Chen Ke was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Di Lun who was standing there with a slight smile in his eyes

"I see."

"King Yin doesn't have to worry, and he doesn't have to be nervous."

"Your Majesty, the First Emperor of our country, has always been lenient, you and I are both of Chinese blood, Your Majesty will definitely help you."

Immediately afterwards, Chen Ke looked at Xu Fu and asked a very important question.

"But you brought back new food seeds?"
