At this time.

Ying Zheng had indeed taken over this recital, and then took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

But after a few glances at this twist, Ying Zheng's face was full of anger.

Smack.

I saw Ying Zheng suddenly slap this piece on the table.

"This kid actually left a captive of the Donghu people!"

“……”

There was silence in the hall for a while, and the ministers did not dare to say a word.

Even Li Si, who had just congratulated Yingzheng, was stunned.

I thought to myself.

What's the matter, Your Majesty? Suddenly, there was such a big anger.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Ying Zheng spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I ask you, should these captives be killed!"

"Your Majesty, Nineteen Princes, what did you say in the recital?"

Li Si cautiously asked Ying Zheng.

I only heard Ying Zheng on the dragon chair in the distance say.

"This kid wants to leave all the captives, and then feed these captives with sweet potatoes and potatoes, so that they can do some work for my Daqin!"

"That's a good thing!"

The moment they heard this, the ministers said one after another.

This is indeed a good thing, Daqin's grain is so much that it can't be eaten, although these grains are not very delicious, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

The people have already used this thing to raise pigs on a large scale.

But just like that, these grains are still not finished, because the yield of sweet potatoes and potatoes is too high and too high.

At present, the Great Qin Empire is facing another national situation that makes people speechless.

That is, the population is too small.

The current population of Great Qin is larger than that of later generations.

Less is simply not like words.

And it happens that the land area of Daqin.

It's not too small.

Today's Great Qin Empire will be within the territory of China.

Except for the northeast, all the land suitable for agriculture was conquered.

In this case, the population is small, so it is inevitable that the per capita arable land will increase.

And so.

There is more arable land per capita.

Under such circumstances, the more arable land there is, the more grain is planted, and the harvest is widespread in ordinary years.

The grain yield is not high, and some arable land can eat a little more.

But now, everyone still grows a lot of sweet potatoes according to the previous method.

I can't even eat all of this stuff.

There is too much food to eat.

This is for the people of Daqin at the moment.

Of course, it's worth rejoicing.

This is a scene they never dreamed of before.

But the crux of the matter comes again.

There is so much food that I can't finish it.

The food that can be eaten is not good for preservation.

Well, that's normal.

Sweet potatoes and potatoes are not the kind of food that is easy to store.

You can only grow and eat it freshly.

Large quantities of grain rotted in the ground, rotting in warehouses.

For the Qin Dynasty, who was accustomed to a hard life.

It's like cutting meat at them with a knife.

Now it is possible to use this food that is not very useful, and it is almost rotten.

Feed the captives and let them work.

It couldn't be better.

But then Prime Minister Li Si reacted keenly, and Yingzheng didn't think that this matter was bad.

After all, who is Yingzheng?

His Majesty, the supreme emperor of the Great Qin Empire.

His wisdom shines like the stars.

It's like no one has ever come before, and there may be ancients in the future.

In such a situation.

Yingzheng's anger is, of course, for a reason.

But it definitely can't be this thing.

Because, his prime minister Li Si could see that this matter was beneficial to Daqin.

How could Ying Zheng not see it? So there must be something else to his anger.

I only saw Lees.

Chao Yingzheng opened his mouth and asked.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not because of this that I'm angry, and I ask Your Majesty to make it clear, what's going on?"

"Li Si, you guessed my mind quite accurately!"

Ying Zheng smiled and looked at Li Si in front of him.

Prime Minister Li Si is not just the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire.

He also has another identity, that is, he is still in-law with Yingzheng.

According to the words of later generations, Li Si is Yingzheng's in-laws!

I only heard Ying Zheng open his mouth to explain.

"This kid is planning to take the captives as a military merit, and this is where I am really angry!"

Well, the ministers reacted instantly, understood the true thoughts in Ying Zheng's heart, and understood why Ying Zheng was so angry.

The reason is very simple, Yingzheng is the first emperor of the ages.

But as an emperor of a country.

Yingzheng also has a problem.

That's stinginess!

This stinginess does not mean that you are usually reluctant to eat or wear that.

Rather, it refers to the people below.

If the Great Qin Empire is compared to a company, then Ying Zheng is the CEO of this company and the president of this company.

And the ordinary people below are the employees of this company, the employees at the bottom.

As for Li Si and others.

This is the senior management of the company.

Wang Jian them.

That's the company's security team.

In such a situation.

It's easier to understand.

Any boss is stingy, and they are reluctant to give too many benefits to their low-level employees.

Especially.

will try to deduct the benefits of low-level employees.

And this is Yingzheng's idea.

There is a reason why he doesn't want to give these prisoners as low-level soldiers.

It is.

Capturing a captive will give you the same credit as cutting off a human head.

Too cheap these soldiers, right?

I saw Ying Zheng open his mouth and say.

"How can killing one enemy and beheading one person be the same as taking one prisoner?"

"The national policy under my Great Qin calendar is that only the head can be counted as a military merit, this is the fundamental law of my Great Qin, but this kid asked me to change it? Of course I'm angry! ”

Ying Zheng sighed, and then explained.

The ministers immediately shut up.

The reason for not talking anymore is simple.

Ying Zheng's meaning is obvious, he is not willing to give the soldiers a knighthood so easily.

After all, a soldier's knighthood has risen.

That means:

He, the emperor, has a lot to give.

At this time, the military titles of the Great Qin Empire were not like the military titles that were destroyed during the Han Dynasty in the later generations.

These titles are quite valuable at the moment.

Every title is real!

You can get certain benefits.

In such a situation.

Ying Zheng as a manager.

Of course, there is a way to get fewer people knighted.

After all, it is the interests of the emperor who are harmed by the more titles.

It's like the capitalists of later generations, why don't they raise the wages of workers?

Because it is their interests that are lost because of the increase in wages.

I only heard Ying Zheng say to the ministers in front of him.

"Don't mention this matter again, I will tell him personally, teach this kid a good lesson!"

Talking about Yingzheng, the conversation changed again.

"But then again, this time the victory against the Donghu people on the grassland, Changsheng, this kid has made a great contribution, it can be said that he won this battle, and he is the first person to take credit!"

"I'm still very satisfied with this, and I should praise it when I look back!"

Hearing this, the ministers were stunned.

What does this mean?

Didn't you say that you won Changsheng before, but turned around and praised him again?

Only Prime Minister Li Si doubted it in his heart.

Could it be that Your Majesty wants to knock and knock the nineteenth son?
