There are still a lot of worries like Fusu, how easy it is to go out and expand the territory, especially after they get the draft contract.

Seeing the various clauses above, they need to bear a lot of responsibilities and obligations, which is not a small restriction for them.

Not only are there many restrictions, but they receive very little support, and they basically have to rely on themselves.

There is nothing in those places, and if you have to develop on your own, there is too much investment required, and it is even more difficult to develop into a city like Daqin, can they really do it?

Many people are already starting to retreat, and it is more comfortable for Daqin to live here than to go to work on their own.

But Zhao Qingrui doesn't care about them, the opportunity has been given to them, it's up to them to grasp it.

She has a lot of things to do now, in addition to perfecting those contracts, there are still a lot of things in the court, although Yao Jia has made some progress, but there is not much to gain, she hopes to clean up those who committed crimes as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, Lord Li Sili asks to see you." When Zhao Qingrui was flipping through the book, the eunuch came to report that Li Si was coming.

"Let him in." There must be something wrong with Li Si coming over.

"I've seen Your Majesty."

"Pingshen, come here at this time, what's the matter?" Zhao Qingrui looked at the sky outside, the sun was setting, and she was busy all day before she knew it.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's a matter of military pay this year, and the minister has already made a plan, please take a look at it." Lees took out the plan.

Daqin's territory is now too big, and some new soldiers have to be recruited every year, and there are more soldiers on the border, so naturally, the expenses are also greater, and the household department must make various budgets.

Zhao Qingrui put down the government affairs in his hands, and the issue of military arrangements mentioned by Li Si was more important.

The plan was very detailed, and almost every item was mentioned, but the more she looked at it, Zhao Qingrui's brows gradually furrowed.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?" Lees asked.

"This budget, a little less, they are for the stability of my Daqin, their treatment is a little higher, and the food is also a little better, the current Daqin is much better, the soldiers must have sufficient nutrition in order to maintain a strong combat power." Zhao Qingrui looked at Li Si.

"Your Majesty, although there are more taxes nowadays, there are more places to use money, and the treasury is not as rich as you think." Li Si grimaced.

Ever since he became the head of the household, he felt that he had become a picker, there was no way, everything in Daqin needed to be carefully calculated.

The corners of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched, every time she needed to allocate funds in some places, Li Si was about to start crying poor.

"Li Qing, a strong country must have a strong army, a strong army can ensure national security, and the army is more important than other places." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.

"Your Majesty understands the reasoning of what your majesty said, but Your Majesty also said that education is very important, scientific research is very important, these are all vigorously supported, scientific research, education, military, these three aspects of expenditure, have accounted for two-thirds of the expenditure of the Great Qin treasury." Li Si is serious.

Zhao Qingrui looked at Li Si with a faint gaze, "Ahem, these are the strong foundations of my Great Qin, and it is normal to invest more." ”

"But the money and food saved every year is only about 10% of the tax." Li Si sighed, if he didn't save enough supplies and money, he still felt very unsafe.

Being stared at by Li Si, Zhao Qingrui was a little weak-hearted.

There is no way to do it, she needs money everywhere, and if she wants to develop these aspects better, she needs more money.

"We have also saved money and food for a few years, and we already have some foundation, and we are not afraid of risks, so we can allocate more money to the army." Immediately, Zhao Qingrui became arrogant.

After so many years of recuperation, Daqin still has a lot of inheritance, and Zhao Qingrui knows it in his heart.

"Then how much more money is Your Majesty going to allocate more?" Seeing His Majesty's determined appearance, Li Si still made a little compromise.

There is no way to do this, if he does not compromise, it will not be good for His Majesty to directly order this matter.

Now we can still negotiate it, and we can allocate as little as possible.

Seeing that Li Si compromised, Zhao Qingrui was also satisfied, and then the two began to discuss how much should be appropriate, and where the funds would be used.

By the time they were both satisfied, it was already completely dark.

Leaving Li Si for dinner, Zhao Qingrui has her own personal time and can take a good rest.

Xianyang Palace is still clean, Zhao Qingrui is used to such days.

The bright night pearl lit up the entire dormitory, and Zhao Qingrui flipped the book in her hand to enrich herself.

Electricity, the people of the Mo family have already studied it, but it is only direct current, and it cannot be popularized yet, and it is still in experiments.

As for this night pearl, this is all found from the treasure house of the emperor, the pearl of the night is brighter than the oil lamp and lantern, and the treasure house of the emperor is naturally the best.

Zhao Qingrui reads books on governing the country, and sitting in her current position, she also wants to do better.

Although her father will also give her guidance, it is more to let her think for herself, and then when she can't think of it, he will do some guidance.

This method is very good, but there are not many opportunities to enjoy the guidance, and it is better to read a book by yourself.

The hall was very quiet, and Zhao Qingrui enjoyed such tranquility.

However, the palace maid soon broke the silence and urged her to go to rest.

Zhao Qingrui glanced at these palace maids, there are only dozens of palace maids in the palace at present, and there are only about a dozen eunuchs, since she took the throne, the eunuchs have been canceled by her, these are the people who stayed before.

In addition to these people, there are only guards guarding the palace in the palace.

After washing and lying on the bed, Zhao Qingrui began to think about what she would do tomorrow, but fortunately, Shang Lian made a plan for her, she just needed to do it according to the plan.

Tomorrow is just a small pilgrimage, there are not many things, but there is no need to pay too much attention.

There is also the matter of the father, the father is going back, and the preparations that should be made must be made.

The father already knew about her restarting the seal, and when the father came back, he would definitely ask about it, there were many hidden dangers in the sealing, and I didn't know if Feng Quji had perfected the contract.

It's time to change the guard this year, and I don't know if Meng Tian has decided on the change of generals.

Thinking of this bunch of miscellaneous things, Zhao Qingrui slowly fell asleep.

On the other side, Xiangjun squatted for many days, and finally waited for those people to make a deal with the Mauryan Dynasty.

Watching them secretly bring in the steam engine, and then put the steam engine on the ship, and then block it with a lot of silk cloth, it was like just going to the silk trade.

Han Xin had already received a message from Yao Jia, and after their big ship set off, he followed from afar with the navy, naturally in order to catch personal stolen goods.

Han Xin stood on the deck, looking at the big ship in the distance with the telescope in his hand, such a luxurious big ship can already be compared to the country's manufacturing, are these people holding such a big ship to damage the interests of the country?

Han Xin was depressed, and he wanted to jump on the boat and kill them all.

Following their ship all the way, Han Xin took out the map and roughly knew his current location.

This sea route, going towards the Mauryan Dynasty, is the side that many merchants take, which is relatively stable and less risky.

Han Xin followed their ship for more than a day, and finally met the merchant ship of the Mauryan Dynasty, this merchant ship was a little simpler than the ship of Great Qin, but it was not bad, it was very large, there were many guards on it, all equipped with armor, and it was not a real merchant at first glance.

A total of twelve large ships came, and there should be more than a thousand people on board, and the leader was gorgeously dressed, but he had a big belly, and he had no combat effectiveness at first glance.

The other guards, or soldiers, were not numerous, and under the gunpowder of Great Qin, it was not difficult to kill these people.

There were many guards and archers on their ships, and it seemed that these people came prepared, but Great Qin was not afraid.

Han Xin's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he made a gesture to the people behind him, and the orderly fleet moved quickly, surrounding the people who were trading over there.

Great Qin's warships were specially fortified, and each soldier was also equipped with shields, and their archers were not a big threat.

Han Xin brought his own weapons, and the ship was already ready, just waiting for a while to step on the big ship of those people.

On the other side of the ship, after a brief negotiation with the business partners of the Mauryan Dynasty, Yu Wei began to move all kinds of fabrics, porcelain and tea to their ships.

And on the ship of the Mauryan Empire, after their people liquidated it, they also let people move out some gold and precious stones.

Even if it is far away, Han Xin can still clearly see through the telescope that the various gems that shine in the sun, of course, the most are gold.

Daqin's currency system has been innovated now, but the value of gold is still very high, and many rich people will hoard a little.

They actually moved more than ten boxes of gold out, that box is definitely not small, are these boats worth so much money?

Looking at the gold, Han Xin silently calculated his family background.

Since he was recruited by His Majesty, he had no money at first, but His Majesty provided him with food and drink, and let him study with him.

Since entering the army, it has only started to have monthly cases.

In the army, he didn't have much place to spend his money, and his salary was saved.

In recent years, he has made a lot of meritorious contributions, and His Majesty not only rewarded him with a few houses, but also rewarded him with a lot of living materials, and he has never been worried about life.

In fact, there was not much money in his small coffers, and even if he added the money from His Majesty's reward, it was only the appearance of their two chests at most.

At this moment, he was a little envious.

These people have more transactions at a time than those pirates who have money, no wonder there are so many pirates, and they can't be encircled and suppressed.

The transaction is so big, according to the intelligence, these people should have traded with the people of the Peacock Dynasty for a year or two, even if the frequency of going to sea is not high.

You can make a lot of money on this trip, envy.

However, this kind of behavior that harms the interests of the state must absolutely be stopped.

Since Zhao Qingrui gave him the opportunity to learn, let him enter the army, and asked Wang Jian to give him guidance, the current Han Xin is extremely loyal to Daqin.

With the appearance of Great Qin's warship, the alarm in the heart of Yu Wei, the leader of the caravan under the name of the Peacock Dynasty and the clan, sounded instantly.

"You're cheating us? You deliberately lured Great Qin's navy over? The people at the head of the Peacock Dynasty instantly pushed Yu Wei away, and immediately asked people to put the things that had not yet been moved over on the boat.

"Alert, on alert." The leader said loudly, and the soldiers around him heard his order, and the weapons in their hands were immediately aimed at Daqin's warship.

Yu Wei's face was also ugly, they were followed by Daqin's navy, damn it, I'm afraid they won't be able to run away this time.

No, you can't wait to die.

"Get out of here and crash through those ships." Yu Wei also immediately ordered, fortunately, he brought a lot of big ships, he knew very well that the boat he was in could not have an accident, and there were things in it that could cause their whole family to suffer.

The imperial court stipulated that steam engines could not be traded to people of different races.

Once caught, everyone will be captured, not only will he and his family suffer, but everyone above him will be killed.

Their resistance was expected, and Han Xin had already prepared and gave orders in an orderly manner.

"Shoot the arrows." The leader of the Peacock Dynasty watched Daqin's warship approaching, and directly ordered the archers to release their arrows, and then ordered the people around him, "Hurry up and get out of here and go back." ”

There were too many warships in Daqin, and once they were allowed to get closer, they would not only be able to lose their goods, but also their own lives.

Their resistance, Great Qin's navy had already held up its shield, and the arrows of the Peacock Dynasty could not penetrate Great Qin's shield at all.

Compared to Great Qin, the forging technology of the Peacock Dynasty was extremely rough, and even if it was a weapon used in the military, the quality was far worse than that of Great Qin.

Looking at the Great Qin warship that was not damaged at all, the faces of the people led by the Peacock Dynasty suddenly changed.

Daqin is very powerful, they all know it, but they have never had a chance to fight, and no one knows how much the gap between them is.

Today, I have seen it, and if I can pass this information back, I will definitely make a meritorious service.

However, Great Qin's navy was not good, and they were afraid that they would not have a chance to pass this information back.

Han Xin looked at the big boat rushing towards them at great speed, his eyes narrowed slightly, and if he wanted to run, it depended on whether he was willing or not.

"Bump into it." Han Shin coldly ordered.

The quality of these people's big ships is much better than that used by ordinary people, but they certainly can't be compared with those made by the state, especially for the safety of the sea, the entire warship has been reinforced with several layers, even if it encounters a tsunami, it is not afraid.

Yu Wei was startled here, and secretly said that he was unlucky, he actually met Han Xin, they were waiting for him here, and they bumped directly into them, trying to force them to stop.
