"Famous city, kill heroes, collect the world's soldiers, gather Xianyang, sell Fengdi, cast as the golden man, and weaken the people of the world. Then practice the city, because the river is the pool, according to the city of hundreds of millions of zhang, the abyss of the unpredictable, I think it is ...... solid" Zhao Tuo whispered in his heart, and what he remembered in his mind was the popular article that he memorized a long time ago.

After the unification of Qin, Qin Shi Huang had already begun to issue orders to order all local guards and lieutenants to destroy the fortresses of the famous cities of the capital, and the inner Great Wall originally built by Qi, Yan, Chu, Zhao and other countries also began to be demolished to open up roads.

At the same time, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and the rangers who dared to resist the rule of Qin were also killed, and Zhang Liang, Gongsun Xin and others who ran away were on the wanted list.

Famous city, kill heroes. After these two things were done, the emperor even ordered people to collect a large number of weapons, armor, bows, crossbows, horse harnesses and other weapons that the original Six Kingdoms possessed to Xianyang City, ready to be destroyed.

Regarding the matter of collecting the world's blades for destruction, Zhao Tuo himself has no opinion. The weapons of the Six Kingdoms and the weapons used by the Qin army did not match in shape, and the length and height were completely different, so they could not be equipped and used in the army.

Even bows, crossbows, and arrows, and even the core components of large instruments such as ladders and chariots, could not be replaced because of the difference in weights and measures from the Qin State.

Leaving these weapons behind is useless except for occupying the treasury, and may even be rebelled by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms who have opposing intentions, so it is better to destroy them.

It's just that after destruction, what is used to cast is very particular. Zhao Tuo naturally knew what Qin Shi Huang wanted to do with these things.

Five feet high, weighing thousands of stones, the twelve golden people standing majestically. Create another wonder of the Qin Empire!

"After unifying the world, there is nothing to do, and the emperor is going to turn into a figure maniac." Zhao Tuo quickly thought of a way to deal with it in his head, if he directly proposed the twelve golden people, he would definitely make Qin Shihuang happy, and praise Zhao Tuo really knows my heart.

But in Zhao Tuo's view, the matter of casting gold people not only consumes a lot of people's power, but also does not benefit the whole country except for satisfying the emperor's desires.

This is a futile matter that harms the people's strength and is not beneficial to the country. The spectacle misleads the country, it is not advisable! Zhao Tuo took a deep breath, an idea popped up in his mind, and he arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty collects the world's soldiers and fights disasters in the world, which is really like the former Zhou Wu King Yanwu Xiuwen, and it is a great thing to put Nanshan on the horse." The minister thought that it was better to sell these blades and cast them into ploughshares, which could help the world to farm. ”

"Cast into farm tools?" The Emperor frowned. Zhao Tuo pretended not to see it, and continued: "In the past, the monarchs of the six countries were tyrannical, using copper and iron to build blades, fighting each other, and causing chaos in the world. His Majesty raised volunteers, punished riots, and rescued the head of Qian. If it is unified today, His Majesty will destroy the weapons used by the six countries to fight to show that the Zhuxia family will no longer fight against each other. Then these destroyed blades are made into tools that will help the people of the world to farm. ”

"In contrast to these two, it can better reflect the chaos of the six kings and the wisdom of His Majesty."

"The emperor sells the soldiers of the world, casts the sword into a plow, so holy, when all the people praise it, save the four poles!" After the unification of the world, the Qin State belittled the six kings and praised the emperor in political propaganda.

Now Zhao Tuo grasped this correct line and put the high hat on Qin Shihuang first.

"Forged swords into ploughshares." Qin Shi Huang chewed these four words and looked at Zhao Tuo in front of him. Zhao Tuo has always understood his heart, from discussing the emperor's name to the feudal dispute between counties and counties, every time this kid says something, it is very consistent with the thoughts in his heart.

This time, Qin Shi Huang actually had an idea in his heart about collecting the world's soldiers. He summoned Zhao Tuo to inquire, firstly, that this matter was the responsibility of the Shaofu and belonged to Zhao Tuo's purview.

The second is that the emperor wants to see if this son can still understand his own mind. How do you know that Zhao Tuo said a new idea.

Forged swords into ploughshares. It sounds good and practical, but it's not what Qin Shi Huang wanted the most.

"It should be that the hints given are not enough." The emperor did not pay attention to Zhao Tuo's proposal to forge a sword as a plowshare, but talked about another thing.

"According to the report of the Governor of Lintao, when I destroyed the Six Kingdoms and became the emperor, there were twelve giants who were five feet tall and six feet tall and dressed in Yiyi clothes appeared near Lintao, and they all bowed down in the direction of Xianyang. Those yin and yang people say that this is auspicious. ”

"Xiangrui? Damn auspicious! Zhao Tuo scolded in his heart, and estimated that it was the captain of Lintao who saw Qin Shihuang ascending the throne and specially made up a story to curry favor with the emperor.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in later generations. Now it is only said that twelve peach giants have appeared, which is quite simple.

In the next generation, you can get any yellow dragon, green dragon, unicorn or anything that appears. However, Qin Shi Huang mentioned this in front of Zhao Tuo, which was simply a naked and explicit statement.

Zhao Tuo suddenly realized and said: "The twelve giants bow down, this must be the surrender of the four yi, and Your Majesty will be the elephant of the four seas." This shows that when His Majesty casts a sword into a ploughshare, it is better to cast the image of twelve villains kneeling down to commemorate this event. Qin Shi Huang shook his head, what Zhao Tuo said this time was barely in line with his heart.

But twelve villains?

"I want to use this to cast the twelve golden men and make them stand in Xianyang, which just shows the majesty of my Great Qin!" Qin Shi Huang's voice suddenly rose up, and his mind came up with the majestic and tall appearance of twelve golden figures kneeling in the square in front of Xianyang Palace.

Style! Just thinking about it makes people happy.

"Your Majesty, it is indeed a magnificent thing to sell the soldiers of the world to cast gold men. But this golden man stands in Xianyang, but it makes people all over the world unable to look at it and feel the majesty of His Majesty. ”

"The minister remembered a major event in the world, and maybe they could be combined with each other." Zhao Tuo opened his mouth to answer. Qin Shi Huang's face turned a little cold, and he said, "What are you talking about? Zhao Tuo immediately replied: "The minister walked in the land of the Six Kingdoms before and found that the coins of various countries were of different shapes, and it was very inconvenient to circulate and use. ”

"For example, my Qin State uses half a tael of money, Yan State uses a sharp head knife, Chu State uses ant-nose money, and Wei State uses Yuan money...... The coins of various countries are different, the weights are different, and there are many private coins in the hometowns of the princes, which has caused the people of the world to suffer for a long time. Now that my Qin State is unified under the world, I can't let this situation continue. Seeing Zhao Tuo talking about business, Qin Shi Huang bowed his head and said: "I already know about this matter, the prime minister and the young ...... The former Shaofu is already discussing the unification of the world's currency. My Qin State will dominate the world, the six countries will be destroyed, and the coins used by the princes in the past will not be allowed to exist. You are the Shaofu, and you are in charge of coinage, and you will take over this matter later, but why did you mention this matter at this time? Zhao Tuo hurriedly said: "The minister just thinks that if those weapons in the world are only used to cast into the twelve golden figures, although they can show the great power of Your Majesty and my Great Qin, it is a pity that they cannot be admired by all the people in the world." ”

Therefore, the minister thought that it was better to separate those weapons and cast the plough with iron tools, so as to show the virtue of His Majesty, and to rebuke the six kings. Bronze ware, on the other hand, can be minted into coins, which can be carried out together with the unification of the world's currency. ”

"The minister thinks that the image of the Yi people kneeling can be cast on the coin, and when the coin is circulated, all the people who hold the coin in the world will be shocked by the image of the Yi people on the coin. Knowing that my Great Qin is the destiny of heaven, even the people of the Quartet have to kneel! Seeing the thoughtful appearance of the emperor on the couch, Zhao Tuo added: "The minister thinks that he can also let the world's famous teachers draw the image of His Majesty's martial arts and print it on the coin." ”

"Coin is something that everyone in the world wants to use, so that thousands of people in the world, as long as they use coins, they can see the image of His Majesty and feel the prestige of His Majesty. Qin Shi Huang was stunned.

Those who do not mint gold are changed to mint coins. Also engraved on the coin is the image of the Yi people kneeling, or is it printed with the head of their own martial arts and wisdom for all the people of the world to pay respects?

This idea is a bit new. Qin Shi Huang closed his eyes, and scenes appeared in his head.

A child held a coin in his hand and asked his mother curiously, "Mother, who is the person on this coin, how majestic." The woman immediately said with a respectful face, "That is the emperor of the day, the greatest emperor who rules the world!" ”

"It turned out to be the emperor!" The child looked at the portrait on the coin with admiration.

"Emperor, Great Emperor!" In doing so, it seems that he can really spread the prestige of his emperor all over the world, so that every Qiandu will look at his portrait every day and recite his emperor's name.

looked at Qin Shi Huang who was moved on the stage. Zhao Tuo was a little nervous. He deliberately mentioned the matter of unifying the currency of the world at this time, just to remind Qin Shi Huang that our Qin State is about to abolish the currencies of the six countries, and to do this important thing, we will definitely have to mint a large number of Qin coins, and a lot of copper will be needed.

When the country is short of copper, but you take so much copper and iron to cast a big gold man, are you at ease as the emperor?

In addition to posing this practical problem, Zhao Tuo put forward the idea of printing a headshot. Isn't the satisfaction of having your head printed on the coins of the world, so that thousands of heads of the world can look up to you every day, than making a few gold men?

Zhao Tuo had a strange thought in his head again.

"If the emperor agrees to this, the coins of the Qin State are all printed with his head, what will the future generations call when they dig it out?" Qin Datou?
