Chapter 494: Zhao Ying: I'm so miserable
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help nodding slightly, but his gaze had already crossed the southern border between Guilin County and Xiang County, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
However, I don't know what I thought about, so I didn't open my mouth after all, but followed Zhao Ying's fingers and redirected my gaze to the large narrow and scattered island group closest to Yingzhou.
"You're saying that all but a small tribe here is almost savage?"
Zhao Ying nodded.
"However, although this place is wild, there are many rare treasures overseas, and some minerals such as gold, silver, copper, and iron may not be found on this island like Yingzhou and Fusu......
In fact, at this time, compared with the highly civilized Great Qin Empire, many other places were still in a relatively ignorant era. This island, which was later called Luzon, at this time, did not have a name of its own, except for a tribe that later called "Igolot", the rest was almost blank.
As for the rich mineral resources such as gold, copper, chromium, iron and manganese, no one cares about it.
It's just that this was a commonplace thing before, and no one felt that there was anything wrong, and you were unlucky to have a child and die. Therefore, I never thought that I could start with the midwife.
After the establishment of the three counties of Mobei, it almost became a place of exile for violating the law, and wave after wave of prisoners, dragging their families and mouths, were sent to Mobei to fill the border, and even if there was a little left, he couldn't concentrate them all.
"Father, there is great strength in numbers, the population of our Daqin is still too small, and without a large number of people to support it, even if we build these small islands, over time, they will eventually become an enclave......
"The suggestion you made, you are the grandson of the Emperor of the Prison Kingdom, what does it have to do with me......
Thinking of this, Zhao Ying couldn't help but subconsciously glance at the First Emperor.
"Okay, you can go back and explain this to your Aweng......"
"Since Ying'er left you, you stayed, you will leave in a few days, and your brothers and nephews will also take this opportunity to get together more......
When the First Emperor heard this, he smiled and shook his head.
After all, most of the people who work there are convicted people, and they only need to be exonerated and Fu Ji, and they can immediately gather a large group of outlaws who are willing to follow Gongzi Gao to the sea.
"In this way, Uncle Fool is welcome!"
"Father, with the current national strength of our Great Qin, it is naturally not a problem to recover these overseas islands, but the question is that we have so many people?"
Speaking of which, he was in a good mood, and he didn't forget to joke.
There is a chef who is proficient in cooking, and it is really unwanted.
Giving birth to a child is really like a ghost gate, I don't know how many people have fallen at this pass, how dare Zhao Ying let the First Emperor have such a misunderstanding, and immediately shook his head again and again.
This dog thing will sweep people's heads!
Looking at the first emperor with a sneering expression, Zhao Ying smiled at this time.
Before, first, I didn't know that there was such a vast territory on the vast sea, and second, the Qin Dynasty implemented the county system, pursuing a high degree of political, economic and even spiritual and cultural unity, in order to completely unify the north and south, after he unified the world, he destroyed obscene shrines, abolished writing, standardized carriages and horses, and unified weights and measures.
He suddenly understood a little why there was a period of time in later generations when the West plundered serfs on a large scale and sold slaves.
When they got there, as long as the imperial court gave them a certain amount of support and set aside a piece of land for them, they would be able to take root there and reproduce enough population.
After all, there aren't many people in the prisons these days, even in various places.
"No, no, today's age is just right, if it is lowered again, those girls are still young, their bodies are not yet full and strong, how can they give birth to healthy children......"
But he actually doesn't care, he now believes more and more that in the future, his chances of leaving a name in history may not be weaker than that of the first emperor.
Zhao Ying: ......
A small island that is almost uninhabited, although Zhao Ying said that there may be many rare treasures here, but for him, there is still no special attraction.
Hearing this, Gongzi Gao on the side finally withdrew his gaze from the map and nodded in agreement.
With the current traffic conditions, even if they want to converge, they may not be able to arrive alive, and even if they do, they don't know what year of the monkey they will have to wait for.
Different from Afang Palace, Lishan is the first emperor's own mausoleum, in this era of seeing death as life, building a mausoleum is definitely a big deal, he doesn't want to hurt the relationship between himself and the first emperor because of this.
Zhao Ying said with a smile.
Although Zhao Ying didn't say it, with the wisdom of the First Emperor, how could he not see the layout of his eldest grandson.
Converted to age, it is about sixteen or seventeen years old, and compared with those perverted dynasties in later generations who can get married at the age of ten, I don't know how many times more scientific it is.
Obviously, the fourth son of his own family with a generous temperament has entered the eyes of this eldest grandson, and I am afraid that he will occupy an extremely important position in his future layout.
Zhao Ying looked at Gongzi Gao, who was obviously black and thin, and couldn't help but move in his heart, and said with a smile.
The First Emperor nodded slightly.
He couldn't help but take a deep breath, looking at the high-spirited imperial grandson in front of him, a trace of eagerness flashed in his eyes.
When the First Emperor heard this, he nodded very casually.
Zhao Ying: ......
In fact, he really wanted to suggest that the First Emperor transfer some of the service personnel from Lishan.
However, when he saw the place where the First Emperor's eyes were, he suddenly understood the First Emperor's thoughts, and he couldn't help crying and laughing.
"It's a big problem indeed......"
Gongzi Gao saw that Zhao Ying's advice was serious, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he nodded very seriously.
"Now in the entire Great Qin, who doesn't know that the food in the Emperor's Grandson's Mansion is the best in the world, and I can be regarded as having a good ......."
As soon as Zhao Ying saw his eyes, he knew what his grandfather was thinking, and couldn't help but smile and remind.
"Okay, I'll save it!"
Speaking of this, he said with a slight hesitation.
That night, Gongzi Gao wanted to go back and was left behind by Zhao Ying.
The First Emperor liked to expand his territory, and it was good to want to create a huge empire that would last forever, but his mind was clearer than anyone else's.
Looking at the large island in the lower left, which was almost comparable to the land of several counties, his narrow eyes suddenly ignited a sense of war, just like back then, he crouched on a few cases, overlooking the anointed land of the six countries of Shandong.
Zhao Ying sincerely patted the First Emperor on the back.
However, he didn't bother with this, the first emperor didn't care who the credit fell on, and wanted to give himself a chance to continue to win the hearts of the people and accumulate popularity.
Although Gongzi Gao said so, Zhao Ying still decided to go back and write a letter to Long and Fan Hao. In the final analysis, the fourth uncle of his own family is still too generous, and he may not be able to be ruthless when the time comes.
In this case, it is really necessary to avoid suspicion, and let him take the opportunity to contact his eldest grandson.
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but nod slightly, but he was ready to ask the Taiyi Pavilion again in his heart.
If this place can be taken, the territory of Great Qin will almost double again.
"Ying'er, you really live up to the name of benevolence and love - your policy is the real old Cheng to hold the country, when I was in Xianyang in the past, I heard a lot of human tragedies of mothers and children because of giving birth......"
Now, he has such a good grandson, and he has no worries, and the situation in the land of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong has gradually improved, and he may not be able to push the territory of Daqin one step further in his lifetime.
Zhao Ying said, lifting the sharpened charcoal pen on the side, and lightly drew a circle in the position of Luzon in the later generations, and then drew a larger circle in the lower left and lower right respectively.
However, I was ready to pull the tiger skin of the First Emperor to give my father a task.
Concentrate on the training of midwives, even if you are in a hurry, you are not in a hurry, and it is not too late to talk about it after your own self-free father sobers up, and the top priority is actually a matter of continuing manpower after Gongzi Gao takes the island.
Zhao Ying: ......
"The eldest father is wise, and I will be grateful for this policy of the eldest father——"
Although these measures were highly praised and respected by later generations as the first emperor of the ages, at that time, they also caused a strong backlash in various places. In fact, because of this, the land of the six countries of Shandong, as well as the Baiyue in Lingnan, the voice of opposition has never been cut off.
To be honest, after eating the food on Zhao Ying's mansion, he really couldn't eat it anymore if he asked him to go back and continue to eat the kind of fish that was simply processed or simply grilled directly.
In fact, even if you think about it, you can't do it.
"Okay, you two look at it......"
"Moreover, although this place seems to be isolated overseas, it is actually not far from Yingzhou. Now that the fourth uncle has garrisoned Yingzhou, organized the people, educated the head of Qian, and completely included Yingzhou under the rule of my Great Qin, there is no reason why this island should not be included in the rule of my Great Qin......"
It is only now, with the Afang School Palace, the formal establishment of the school, and the gradual promotion of this kind of thing in all counties and counties across the country, that this kind of thing really has the basis and possibility of implementation.
"Okay, I'll teach them a few new dishes when I get back, and I'll send them to you myself......"
In fact, he knows better than Gongzi Gao, because Daqin implements a very strict household registration management system, and the family adds Ding to import, and needs to report to the county government, if someone in the family dies, he needs to go to the yamen to cancel the account, explain the reason for the death, and at the same time the yamen will take back the field, and cancel the tax on the person's name in time.
Therefore, the increase or decrease in population, as well as the reasons for the increase or decrease, will be within the scope of the local officials' reports.
However, Zhao Ying can't say it directly, so he can only use the analogy of Fusang and Yingzhou.
The First Emperor also nodded quite seriously.
Seeing Gongzi Gao looking at him, the First Emperor waved his hand very casually.
When Gongzi Gao heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
But now—
But having a child at the age of twelve or thirteen is not surprising.
Without a population, what is the difference between it and a desert island.
After thinking about it for a while, I didn't even think about where to transfer people......
However, after all, there is still no exit.
Gongzi Gao smiled and nodded.
Sure enough, the First Emperor's originally casual eyes immediately became a little serious, and there was a thoughtful look on his face. Zhao Ying turned his head to look at Gongzi Gao, who was staring at the map and pondering there, and said with a smile.
Of course, even if they get married at the age of ten, there is a high probability that they will not be able to have children.
This misunderstanding is a big one!
In fact, compared with the dynasties of later generations, the age of marriage for men and women in the Great Qin is still more reasonable, and the law of the Great Qin stipulates that men are six feet five inches tall and then perform a weak crown ceremony, and women are six feet two tall, and they can only marry when they are adults.
Ah, this-
"In that case, I'll bother you again......"
"You mean, lowering the age at which men and women get married?"
"Good! Then count it as mine—"
"After we manage this place well, no matter which side we develop, we can attack and retreat, and we can be regarded as having a stable material supply."
"What I mean is to set up a special school, so that the experienced female officials in the palace, those medical officers who are good at women's science, and the gentlemen of the Afang Medical Hall can carry out special teaching, concentrate on training a large number of midwives who really know how to deliver babies, and assign them to various counties and counties, with them as the core, to improve the level of midwives in various places as soon as possible, so as to reduce the risk of birth......"
Only then did the First Emperor nod seriously and pondered.
"Fourth uncle, don't think about this, no matter what, take down the place first, those small local tribes, if you train them, they may not be unusable, and in a short time, they will be enough to meet the needs - just remember, you must let them maintain enough awe for our Great Qin, otherwise they will suffer from it......"
What's more, if history is irreversible, the first emperor who lives in Xianyang will still die in July this year, and it is a bit out of place for him to transfer the manpower to build the mausoleum at this time.
"Fourth Uncle don't be envious, when you go back, I will ask you to pick a few chefs with excellent cooking skills and give them to you - you can also taste our Xianyang food on the East China Sea......
First Emperor: ......
Zhao Ying didn't know that the First Emperor had not completely given up this plan, but when he saw him nodding at this time, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief in his heart. Don't dare to detour anymore, and go straight to the point.
Before the forces of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong and the Land of Lingnan were fully integrated, it was no longer appropriate for the Great Qin Empire to continue southward.
It's really a shortage of people-
Thinking of this, his eyes couldn't help but become more and more hot.
It has seriously involved his mind, so that even if he has a heart, he is unable to continue to go south.
Although he was not a rich man in his previous life, it was still a trivial matter to occasionally eat some seafood and drink a cup of draft beer with his colleagues, and he also knew some about the practice of some ordinary seafood.
"Father, even if you fancy this place, we have to take down this small island first, even if there are no special minerals on it, even if it is used as our transit station, it is good......"
It's just that now after crossing over, there is no tool to store seafood, even if he is the grandson of the emperor and rich all over the world, he can't eat it.
Huh——
Thinking about it, Zhao Ying felt that he was really miserable. (End of chapter)
