Chapter 326: Caught Xu Fu
This super-large iron mine surprised Ying Zheng very much, with this iron mine, he can make a lot of weapons and can do a lot of things.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng quickly gave orders one after another and arranged for people to go over to mine.
It's just that when it came time to choose the person who went over to take care of him, he began to struggle.
After the officials of the DPRK and China sent some of them to the grassland, the officials of the DPRK and China began to be seriously deficient.
The person sent to take care of the iron mine must be close to someone who can be trusted, otherwise what if something happens?
Ying Zheng thought about it, and finally set his eyes on Zhou Shen.
This person is a person cultivated by his daughter, and if his daughter trusts him, that is usable.
Moreover, this man is very calculating, and there is absolutely no problem in managing iron mines.
"Go and call Zhou Shen." Ying Zheng commanded lightly.
In the past two years, Zhou Shen has done quite well in the position of Pinghuai Ling, Ying Zheng looked at the official inspection book, and the page he turned to was Zhou Shen's.
Looking at the young man who came to Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng took a look.
Zhou Shen looked gentle and polite, not at all like a calculating person.
"You have done a good job in Pinghuai Ling in the past two years, but now there is a shortage of people everywhere in the court, and I am ready to transfer you to other places." Ying Zheng looked at the person in front of him.
"No matter where you are, as long as it's for Great Qin, the minister is willing." Zhou Shen is righteous and awe-inspiring.
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, this guy's ideological consciousness is good, he can be reused.
"I want you to manage a large iron mine recently in the court, and I will transfer you back when the court has enough manpower." Ying Zheng looked at Zhou Shen with satisfaction.
"The minister is willing to go." Zhou Shen thought about it for a while and agreed directly.
He also knows the importance of the iron mine, as long as it passes, His Majesty will definitely pay attention to him from time to time, as long as he does well, there are more opportunities to climb up.
Directly following this task can also make His Majesty have more good feelings for him, and he can think of him first when he is promoted in the future.
"Okay, in that case, you can take a look at the situation of this iron mine first, write a plan for me, and I will take a look first." Ying Zheng became more and more satisfied.
Now he also likes to let the officials below write plans, otherwise he will say empty words, let him think, how troublesome he is, write a plan, take it for himself, if it is not suitable, let them go back and rewrite, and leave if it is suitable, which reduces a lot of workload for himself.
There are too many things for Daqin to be busy with now, and since he came back, he has to deal with so many things every day, but fortunately, he is starting to be handy.
Today is another day of missing his daughter, with her here, let her deal with these things, he can relax a little.
After Zhou Shen left, Shusun Tong came over again and came to report Zhao Qingrui's coronation ceremony.
"Your Majesty, this is what you need to prepare when crowning His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please take a look at it." Shusun Tong submitted the plan he had written.
Looking at this pile of things, Ying Zheng's eyes were a little dazed, and he remembered that when he was crowned, the melodious sound of Yale seemed to still linger and echo in his ears.
"That's all, how are the preparations on the Yongcheng side?" Coming back to his senses, Ying Zheng looked at his uncle Sun Tong.
"Back to Your Majesty, you are already preparing, and you will definitely be able to prepare everything before Your Highness is crowned." Uncle and grandson said seriously.
"Well, I know, I don't want any mistakes in this matter, you and Zong Zhengling should be careful." Ying Zheng nodded.
"Minister, provincial." Uncle and grandson Tong respectfully responded.
This is the coronation ceremony of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, do they dare to be careless.
-----------------
On Yingzhou Island, Feng Haicheng sat in a tent set up, and soon, a middle-aged man was escorted to him.
"General, Xu Fu brought it." The two soldiers said respectfully.
Xu Fu, who was brought over, was very embarrassed, his face was swollen, and the whole person was tied up to prevent him from escaping.
When Fenghai City came over with Daqin's army, Xu Fu was terrified, and he also thought about escaping by boat, but around Yingzhou Island, there were Daqin's troops stationed, although the number was not only, but it was not the rabble that he had just pulled up could match.
After hiding on Yingzhou Island for so long, he was finally caught.
There was a burst of despair in Xu Fu's heart, he didn't expect Daqin to actually find this place at all.
As soon as he thought of what he would face when he went back, Xu Fu's heart trembled.
The general in front of him had a strange face, this person should have only risen in recent years, and he didn't look too old.
Xu Fu's mind began to come alive, "General, I have a lot of gold, silver and beauties here, as long as you let me go, these are all yours."
Gold, silver, and beauties are not as important as being alive.
As long as he was alive, he had a chance to get his hands on these things.
"Hehe, isn't this Xu Fu Xu Great Immortal Master, you will also be afraid." Feng Haicheng looked at Xu Fu with a smile.
The one he was holding in his hand was the map of Yingzhou Island, and it had been more than a month since he came here, and he had killed a lot of natives during this time, and the children who were brought over by Xu Fu were not very old, and they were directly accepted by him.
As for those natives, whether it is His Majesty or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, their demand is to be slaughtered directly, and there is no need for these people to live.
Although it was not clear why His Majesty had given such an order, he only had to obey the order.
"The general laughed, I'm just an ordinary man, as long as the general lets me go, I know where there is a mountain of silver, there is a lot of silver there, and this silver will be given to the general in the future." Xu Fu looked at Feng Haicheng flatteringly.
As long as you win this person into the same battle line as yourself, then you can keep your nickname.
"Look, isn't it in this position?" Feng Haicheng erected a map and pointed to the location of Iwami Silver Mountain on the map.
Looking at the map and landform of the entire Yingzhou Island on the map, Xu Fu's pupils shrank.
For so many years, he had only explored the entire Yingzhou Island in general, and the map in Fenghai City's hand was too detailed, and the details made him afraid.
How could Daqin have a map of Yingzhou Island, and it was so detailed?
How can it be? Could it be that His Majesty let him go on purpose?
The mess in my mind made up a bunch of brains, and the more I thought about it, the more scared I became.
"Why didn't Immortal Master Xu speak? You see, there are a lot of silver mines on the map, and there's a big gold mine, and I know all of that." Feng Haicheng looked at Xu Fu, whose face was constantly changing, and his mood became more and more beautiful.
This dog thing swept away so many treasures from Daqin, and coaxed His Majesty to do so many wrong things, it's damned.
Xu Fu's face became paler and paler, "This map is so detailed, I didn't expect Daqin to know so much about Yingzhou Island."
"I should know this place better than you do, now that you know, you're worthless." Feng Haicheng hooked his lips.
"Your Majesty ordered me to take you back to Xianyang to wait for the fate, Xu Xianshi's dream of being the emperor has come to naught." Feng Haicheng said happily.
"The general is willing to be the dog of the First Emperor? I also know some other islands, and it would be better for us to bring people there, and to be emperors ourselves." Xu Fu was unwilling and continued to use words to coax Fenghai City.
"You're out of your way." Feng Haicheng glanced at Xu Fu with pity, and then asked people to take him down and detain him specially, and he also sent hundreds of people to watch him, lest he run away.
Xu Fu was caught, Feng Haicheng was thinking about going back, let the deputy general watch it first, Xu Fu had to be escorted by him personally, this dog thing is too important to His Majesty, and there can be no mistakes.
The gold and silver mines here have been explored, and they are exactly as on the map, and there are some small gold and silver mines, but they are not marked on the map.
Seeing the fruits of this labor, Feng Haicheng was very happy, and the task was successfully completed.
When he returns and hands over the mission, he will need to stay here for a long time.
-----------------
Yuan Shenbai spent more than a month to raise a large amount of money, and the fundraising activities finally stopped.
Yuan Shenbai called everyone together and told everyone about the sharing, and the sharing was calculated according to the amount of money donated.
The businessmen have known about what he has proposed, and they also know it in their hearts.
Yuan Shenbai reported how much money everyone had donated, so that everyone could count it in their hearts.
The ones who donated the most were naturally Wang Xian and Meng Yu, but now Wang Xian went to the grassland to become an official, and Meng Yu was still working in the Di Bao Office, so they sent special people over.
Listening to the report of these donations, many people calculated in their hearts that this wave directly raised nearly 10,000 yuan, with so much money, they can directly build a lot of things.
With so much money, Zhao Qingrui is thinking about speeding up the progress of construction, she has been here for almost two months, and many of the capital cities of Guizhou have completed the autumn harvest, so they can free up their hands to work.
The next day, there were a lot of job advertisements in several counties of Jiuyuan County, in a word, those who came did not refuse, worked for the imperial court, paid daily, and managed a lunch.
Daily salary, this can attract a lot of Qiantou, do a day's work, is ten and a half taels, not much, but the food, and the meat to eat.
Suddenly, the number of people who signed up instantly increased, and they were almost overwhelmed by the county governor's mansions in various counties.
With Zhao Qingrui's order, the construction of various places was quickly carried out.
At first, some people didn't believe it, but after seeing that the other people who went to work really got the money, the Qianshou suddenly became excited.
Qianshou wants to make money, and there are not many opportunities, but now, as long as he goes to work, he can get money every day, and he can also eat a full meal with meat, which makes many people excited.
The construction team has expanded unprecedentedly, and the speed of construction has naturally increased.
If it weren't for Zhao Qingrui's urgent order, the materials of many brick factories and building materials factories in various places would be sent here first, and I am afraid that there would not be enough here.
The grain and all kinds of meat here, under the intervention of Zhao Qingrui, have risen a lot, and many grain merchants have come here to sell grain.
Zhao Qingrui is engaged in infrastructure construction here, and Yingzheng also pays more attention to this side.
The speed of construction here stunned Yingzheng.
If the Great Wall and Chidao were built at the beginning, and the head of Qiantou also cooperated like this, it is estimated that it would not take much time to completely build it.
Qianshou, who was once not taken to heart by him, was able to exert such a powerful power, which is really shocking.
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is engaged in a lot of construction, and has also requisitioned so many Qiantou leaders, and many people in the court have opinions." Feng Qujian reported on Zhao Qingrui's side.
Zhao Qingrui made a big deal over there, which made the prices over there increase a lot.
Daqin's changes were too big, too fast, he instinctively didn't want to change too fast, he felt that he had a generation gap with Zhao Qingrui.
"It's okay, haven't you seen that the business tax has increased a lot?" Ying Zheng said calmly, Xianyang's new city is gradually showing its prototype, and this new city is even better than he thought.
It would be nice if other cities were built like this.
Zhao Qingrui's movements, he even knew better than Feng Quji, and he was looking forward to it even more.
"It's just that with such a big move, Chen is worried that some people will take this opportunity to do something to endanger my Great Qin." Feng Qujian was still very uneasy.
"The right minister thinks that who else is my opponent of Daqin, right minister, you are too conservative, since we now have enough strength, money and food, then why don't you let go of your hands and feet and do what you want to do, I see Qingrui like this." Ying Zheng looks like he is honored.
"Wouldn't this be too much of a burden on the Qianshou?" Feng Qujian felt that his heart was a little bad.
"When you are free, you can go over and see the life of Qianshou over there, maybe it's better than the people here in Xianyang." Ying Zheng was drinking tea leisurely, and Feng Quji was indeed a little bit uneasy
It's an old age.
However, he managed Daqin very well, and he didn't have the idea of changing the prime minister for the time being.
There are several candidates for prime minister, but they are still growing, and Li Si and Feng Qujian will have to continue to shine in the position of prime minister for several years.
"I'll take a look when I have a chance." Feng Quji was silent for two seconds.
"It's not a big deal during this time, you give the work in your hands to Li Si for a few days, I give you a few days of vacation, you go out for a walk and take a rest." Ying Zheng drank tea and directly gave Feng Qujian a period of vacation.
"Your Majesty, no, there are many affairs in the court, if the minister doesn't do it, all of them will be handed over to Li Xiang, and the minister is worried that there will be chaos." Feng Qujian was shocked in his heart, what does Your Majesty mean by this? Do you want him to resign and go home for retirement?
"Don't worry, there is no problem, it just so happens that this year's taxes are going to be paid, after the prime minister goes out, check for me to see if there are any officials who cheat on the taxes and grain." Ying Zheng said calmly, and by the way, he assigned a task to Feng Quji.
"Minister, take the order." Feng Quji looked at the emperor sitting at the top, and his heart was relaxed, His Majesty didn't seem to have any intention of quitting.
"Go, come to the palace before leaving, I have some things for Qingrui to send over, this girl has been outside for so long, I don't know if she has eaten and dressed well." The old father Yingzheng said sadly.
