Chapter 287: Trade Intentions
After Fusu left, Zhao Qingrui called Wang Xian over.
"You go to Lin Yuan, take something from my private treasury, and give it to those farmers, they have worked hard to improve their crops, by the way, take a look at Hu Hai, let Tongwu Hou and the steward of the breeding area look at him a little more, and then let people send more pigs, cattle and sheep over, the border war, the consumption of meat is also large." Zhao Qingrui instructed carefully.
"Your Highness, don't worry, the minister will go." Wang Xian said respectfully.
-----------------
Since Gan Luo and Zhao Wen lived together, his whole person cheered up, and he soaked in the ocean of knowledge every day.
Zhao Qingrui came to visit Ganluo, if she hadn't come, Ganluo wouldn't have seen the guests.
"Is Mr. Gan uncomfortable here?" Zhao Qingrui looked at Gan Luo gently.
"The old man is very good, if it weren't for the persuasion of His Royal Highness to come to Xianyang, the old man would still be wasting his time in Shu County, and now I know that the outside world is so big, and there are so many things that the old man doesn't know." Gan Luo said with emotion.
"Mr. Gan is used to it, but even if he learns new knowledge, he has to combine work and rest, and the eldest brother has come to me to complain, saying that Mr. Gan reads books late every day." Zhao Qingrui smiled.
"Master Fusu, the old man is in good health now, there is no problem, and the old man also wants to learn more knowledge while he can still study." Gan Luo said seriously.
I don't care about Fusu's complaint, it seems that Fusu Gongzi did persuade him to come several times, and he was too engrossed in reading books and forgot about it.
In the past few days since he returned to Xianyang, there were many people who came to visit, except for Li Sifeng, who went to see a few of them, and he didn't see anyone else.
Zhao Wen knows too many things, and he has a lot of books here, he just wants to swim in the ocean of knowledge now, but ask about other things.
"That knowledge won't run away, and I'm not young anymore, so I have to take care of my body and combine work and rest." Zhao Qingrui persuaded bitterly, although he fed Ganluo medicine, but it was also the kind that had a slow effect, Ganluo looked healthy now, but he was also old.
"The old man just wants to learn more." Being stared at by Zhao Qingrui, Gan Luo's old face turned red, he had no children and no daughters in his life, Zhao Qingrui and his students were about the same grade, and he had to let Zhao Qingrui persuade him, which made him a little embarrassed.
"Take your time, don't be in a hurry, you also have to pay attention to your body, otherwise I will ask Zhao Wen not to show you the book." Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
"That's not going to work." Gan Luo hurriedly said.
"Then it's up to you to be obedient."
"Alas, I know, I know, one of you is more verbose than the other." In the end, Ganro was defeated.
"Your Highness came here today just to preach the old man?" Gan Luo looked at Zhao Qingrui suspiciously.
Zhao Qingrui is now the prince, and some things are busy for her, so it is impossible to be so idle.
"Haha, come and visit Mr. Ganluo, even if you don't have time, you have to take some time to come out." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"Your Highness laughed." Gan Luo still looked at Zhao Qingrui lightly.
"Okay, it's a bit of a thing, now that my father is conquering the Xiongnu in the north, he has drawn a large number of troops to Shangjun, and the Xiongnu and Donghu tribes have also united to fight against Daqin."
"The people of the Peacock Empire have come to Great Qin again, wanting to trade and exchange for more grain seeds to go back." Zhao Qingrui talked about the excerpt sent by Zhang Han.
"It depends on what you mean, Your Highness." Gan Luo said calmly, in the past few days since he came back, in addition to reading and studying, he also learned about the affairs of the Great Qin Dynasty.
His Majesty personally conquered, these tribes of the Xiongnu are just the starting point, and there are even more vast lands overseas, and even he can't help but yearn for it.
If he were ten years younger, he would want to go out and see it.
"Grain seeds can't be traded, but they have a lot of gems over there, I'm very interested, I want to exchange some back, what does Mr. think?" Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.
"It's an honor for those barbarians to have something in their hands that interests His Highness." Gan Luo raised his eyebrows, he was not prepared to take care of the affairs of the court.
"Was the gentleman so sleek before?" Zhao Qingrui chuckled.
"The messenger will be in Xianyang in half a month, listening to Zhang Han's meaning, I'm afraid that the person who came is not good." Zhao Qingrui said helplessly, there are a lot of good things in Daqin now.
And this envoy of the Mauryan Dynasty specially selected Great Qin to come over when he was fighting, intending to intervene in the war between Great Qin and the Xiongnu coalition.
The envoy who came this time is said to be a diplomatic official of the Mauryan Empire.
"The people who come are not good, is Your Highness afraid of them?" Ganro laughed too.
"I'm afraid, how is it possible, if it weren't for the fact that the Peacock Dynasty is too far away from my Great Qin, and my Great Qin's shipbuilding technology is not enough to make a large number of warships, I will definitely show my father and the emperor and take them in advance." Zhao Qingrui said domineeringly.
"That's it, it's just a small messenger, they want to intervene, let them meddle even if they do, just to be able to show the strength of my Great Qin to the outside world, and deter Xiaoxiao." Gan Luo was holding a teacup, he also went to Shanglin Yuan to see it, and knew the strength of Daqin's current army.
With such strength, it is only a matter of time before he dominates the entire world, and Gan Luo is not worried about anything at all.
"The Mauryan Empire has an elephant soldier, they tame elephants to fight, and they are powerful." Zhao Qingrui was quite interested in those war elephants.
"What is an elephant?" Ganro hadn't really heard of that.
Zhao Qingrui explained to him carefully and said the pros and cons of elephant soldiers.
"Such a sharp weapon, fortunately, my Great Qin is far away from them, if they are adjacent to Great Qin, if it is the previous Great Qin, my Great Qin is in danger." Gan Luo sighed.
"Yes, but now, my Great Qin is not afraid of the surrounding small countries." Zhao Qingrui smiled.
It's just that now is not the time to attack the Peacock Empire, even if Great Qin defeats the Xiongnu tribes, it will take some time to govern, to educate, and to occupy Jizi Korea and Dongying.
When these are settled, they will attack the Mauryan Empire and those countries near it.
Great Qin still needs a lot of places to build, and it needs a lot of prisoners.
Since they are not ready to fight the Mauryan Dynasty for the time being, what should be done with the envoys they came over is another question.
"Yes, since I, Daqin, am not afraid of anyone, Your Highness can be stronger." Gan Luo suggested earnestly.
"If what they want to exchange is ordinary, it's okay to give them some, but if it involves the foundation of my Great Qin, don't bother."
"Mr. Gan's idea is very much in line with my opinion." Zhao Qingrui laughed happily.
In terms of food, she will never give in, if she gives them sweet potatoes and potatoes, it is completely an enemy.
Before leaving, Zhao Qingrui also told Zhao Wen to look at Ganluo more and not let him read too late.
Back at Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Qingrui took out the recital sent back by Zhang Han again.
The Peacock Dynasty is far away from Great Qin, and their hands can't reach that far, of course, if they insist on doing so, Great Qin's Ruishi are not vegetarians.
The messenger only expressed the intention of wanting grain seeds, which must not be given, even if they had anything good.
When the time comes, we will have to think carefully about who will receive these envoys.
"Go, bring the two prime ministers."
"Here you are, sit down."
Zhao Qingrui hurriedly said the intention of letting them come over and asked what the two meant.
"These envoys have ill intentions, and in the opinion of the ministers, it is better to kill them directly." Li Sihan said.
The current Great Qin is very powerful, a distant country, even if they are comparable to Great Qin, but they are too far away, even if they want to go to war, the loss in the war, he still doesn't believe it, they will directly send a large army to the border of Great Qin.
"What Li Xiang said is also the minister's idea, depending on His Highness's intentions, since he has no intention of making friends, and even wants to beat them down in the future, there is no need to do those face-saving efforts." Feng Qujian said lightly.
The corners of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched, what you said is simple, they have a lot of gems over there, and she still wants to make Daqin more prosperous through trade.
"Ahem, the two prime ministers, now that Great Qin and the Xiongnu are at war, in terms of military salaries, grain and grass, these money and grain can account for almost half of the treasury of Great Qin, and they will soon rebuild Xianyang, and they will need a lot of money and materials, and the treasury is not rich." Zhao Qingrui hurriedly said.
"Your Highness wants trade?" Feng Quji understood what Zhao Qingrui meant.
"That's right, while there is no war yet, exchange some more good things from them and come back, so that Daqin's economy will be more prosperous." Zhao Qingrui nodded.
"His Royal Highness called us here to discuss trade, but many of my Daqin's things can't flow out." Li Si also understood the intention, the current Great Qin is indeed not rich.
Because of the matter of rebuilding Xianyang, if it weren't for the fact that the treasury could support the consumption of all parts of Great Qin, he and Feng Quji would have to go to the court to oppose this matter.
Xianyang is the capital of Daqin in the end, and Zhao Qingrui also wants to make Daqin better, so the two of them supported Zhao Qingrui to transform Xianyang under pressure.
"That's why I have to draw up a charter for the two of you." Zhao Qingrui said solemnly.
"This is not difficult, the ministers will show it to His Highness when they are done." Feng Qujian responded seriously, and this matter was also within their responsibility.
"Then it's troublesome for the two, by the way, there are candidates for receiving the envoys, do you have any recommendations?" Zhao Qingrui hurriedly asked.
"Since you want to trade, you still have to let him feel the importance of my Great Qin, how about letting Gongzi Lu go?" Li Si suggested that Jiang Lu was the Pinghuai Order, and he was the son of the First Emperor, and his status was also high.
"Brother Jianglu? Although he has grown a little now, he is not smooth enough, so send him two more people to help him. After thinking about it, Zhao Qingrui felt that this was an opportunity, an opportunity for Jiang Lu to experience it.
"Lu Pheasant next to His Highness is not bad, how about adding another Wei Xi?" Feng Quji recommended two people to Zhao Qingrui, and they were both Zhao Qingrui's own people.
"They're suitable." Needless to say, Lu Pheasant, she has been doing things with her for nearly a year, Zhao Qingrui is very satisfied with her, and Wei Xi was taught by Gan Luo, and his own ability is not bad, which can be of great use.
"Just according to Feng Xiang's words."
This matter was settled, and Zhao Qingrui relaxed a lot.
What the DPRK and China need her attention to now is the war on the border and the infrastructure construction of Daqin.
Today's Daqin is internally stable, and there is no problem with infrastructure construction, and even because of the change of the system, many people have spontaneously signed up for the official formation.
However, now that the treasury is under various constructions and wars, it has begun to tighten again, and these people from the Mauryan Dynasty have provided her with a good idea.
Just when Zhao Qingrui was almost busy, Feng Zheng came back and arrested the remnants of Yan Kingdom.
"Feng Yushi has worked hard." Seeing the dusty Feng Zheng, Zhao Qingrui hurriedly said.
"The minister eats the king's fortune, and he should bear the king's worries, which is what the minister should do." Feng Zai said seriously.
"The remnants of the Yan Kingdom have all been sent to the Tingwei prison, can Your Highness summon Ji Xin?" Feng Zheng bowed and said.
"Bring it on, I want to see where he got so daring." Zhao Qingrui nodded.
Soon, a man in his twenties was escorted into the Qilin Hall by the guards, Zhao Qingrui sat on the top of the hall, and hundreds of civil and military officials stood on both sides, and the whole hall was solemn.
This kid is the person behind the scenes? He looked his age, but he looked embarrassed at the moment.
Seeing Zhao Qingrui sitting on top, Ji Xin opened his mouth and said nothing.
There were a lot of officials around, as well as the guards who watched him.
Among the surrounding civil and military officials, there are even many women.
This Da Qin doesn't know what's going on? Ying Zheng estimated that his brain was caught by the door, and he actually let a woman be the king.
Looking around, Ji Xin knelt underneath, bowed his head and did not speak.
Seeing that Da Qin was getting stronger and stronger, his heart was as uncomfortable as a cat scratch.
He is the heir of Yan Wangxi, all these years of hiding and hiding, he is extremely aggrieved, he is the only remaining heir of Yan Wangxi, those nobles of Yan Kingdom secretly support him, so that he also has some more ideas.
How beautiful the original prince Dan was, he couldn't even look up to the existence, if he could also become a monarch, he also longed for that kind of life.
In addition, the remaining nobles of Yan State do have some power, and they have secretly gathered a group of people, these people are all elite soldiers, which makes him see some hope for the restoration of the country.
Whether it was him, or the remnants of the other Six Kingdoms, they were all waiting, waiting for an opportunity, ready to give a fatal blow when Great Qin was weak.
Zhao Qingrui left Xianyang, didn't bring many people, traveled lightly, and after they got the news, the whole person became excited.
Zhao Qingrui is the prince set up by the first emperor to worship the heavens and ancestors, and after she ascended the throne, she made the originally weakened Great Qin suddenly come back to life, and the prestige of Great Qin has also reached a new height, and the difficulty of their restoration has increased countless times.
Zhao Qingrui quietly left Xianyang, so that they saw the opportunity, and then they planned a murder, wanting to solve Zhao Qingrui, the biggest stumbling block on their way to recovery.
It's a pity that they failed, and they even found out about them, and before they could run away, the sharp warriors of Great Qin arrived.
"Ji Xin, the son of Yan Wang Xi, who lived in Hanzhong County after the fall of the Yan Kingdom, secretly raised the Yan King for the nobles of the Yan Kingdom, gathered private troops, and intended to oppose the Qin ,......。"
