Zhao Gao did not stay long after reading the holy decree, leaving Wang Li to look at Zhao Si with a resentful face.

"Your title is already three levels higher than mine." The king opened his mouth in the dark.

"This time the situation is special, you also know, the further you go, the more difficult it is to rise to the title, what I'm saying is the truth, I'm afraid it won't be so easy in the future." Zhao Si nibbled on the fruit and smiled awkwardly.

"Hey......" Wang Li sighed.

Where is he jealous of Zhao Si's promotion to the knighthood? The root of his sadness is that he always seems to be unable to handle anything.

His title and his official position all relied on the shadow of his father and grandfather, and the first emperor not only brought him with him, but also entrusted him with important tasks and made him a pioneer.

However, he still messed up.

Zhao Si looked at the depressed Wang Li, and didn't know how to comfort him for a while.

……

On the other hand, when a vigorous arrest campaign was being launched in East County.

Hu Hai knocked on Zhao Gao's door.

"Teacher...... I ......"

Hu Hai and Zhao Gao sat next to each other, Hu Hai opened his mouth a few times, but in the end he still didn't know how to organize the language.

He knew he had messed up.

For Hu Hai, the recent period has been like a roller coaster.

The eldest brother Fusu angered his father, so Hu Hai was able to follow the first emperor to tour the world, and his teacher Zhao Gao hinted that he might have a chance to compete for the position of prince.

After getting through the initial panic, ambition began to breed irrepressibly in Hu Hai's heart.

He had even begun to see himself as a strong contender for the Prince, and began to take the initiative to seek things that he had never dared to think of before.

He didn't even care about Zhao Si's refusal again and again......

But an assassination... ruined Hu Hai's dream of being a prince.

When the panic passed, how could Hu Hai not understand what a stupid thing he had done.

He panicked, fled in embarrassment, and even exposed his father's control.

Hu Hai knew that even if his father could ignore his past suspicions, the civil and military officials of Great Qin would probably not accept him, and he lost the majesty of the royal family in front of everyone.

"Childe ......"

Zhao Gao's heart is extremely complicated, what Hu Hai is doing is really stupid and stupid, this is something that even Zhao Gao did not expect.

Anyway, Hu Hai was educated by an orthodox clan, and his physical condition was in the same vein as the First Emperor, and his appearance was the most similar to the First Emperor.

No matter from any point of view, Hu Hai doesn't seem to be such a timid and cowardly person, but the facts are in front of him.

From beginning to end, Zhao Gao never participated in the battle for the prince.

He was a cautious and intelligent man, and this time, he saw his chance.

He chose Hu Hai, but it was obvious that Hu Hai's performance was unusually bad.

So that the current Zhao Gao is not only investing in nothing, but the most critical problem is that he has participated in the battle for the prince, and from now on, he is no longer the king's close minister.

Zhao Gao wanted to scold his mother in his heart, but he couldn't.

"Childe, you're too anxious." In the end, Zhao Gao still didn't bother with Hu Hai's embarrassment.

This is a fact that cannot be changed.

If he could, of course Zhao Gao wanted to leave and ignore the bad Hu Hai.

But Zhao Gao knew that what he did could not be hidden from the First Emperor, and from the time he tried to bet on Hu Hai, he had no room to quit.

At this moment, Hu Hai, who had no master of the six gods, saw that Zhao Gao was finally willing to speak, and looked up at Zhao Gao as if he had found the backbone of the main heart.

"I know I've made a big mistake, teacher, you are a close minister of your father, you know your father best, how should I make up for my previous mistakes now?"

"Childe, I'm afraid I'm no longer His Majesty's close minister." Zhao Gao shook his head, his face a little dark.

"How could it be...... Aren't you with you now? Hu Hai was stunned for a moment......

"That's because Zhao Si was injured and can't be used now, and the affairs of the palace, the ministers can't interfere, I'm just using it more conveniently now, and for a while, I can't find someone who can replace it." Zhao Gao said seriously.

"That's ......," Hu Hai opened his mouth.

"Wait for the time......" Zhao Gao said in a deep voice.

At this point, it seems that there is not much turning around.

Unless...... Unless Zhao Si can directly express his support for Hu Hai.

Or? The First Emperor died suddenly?

A bold idea suddenly popped into Zhao Gao's mind.

He knew that he should do something, and if he didn't do something, he would lose everything.

He is no longer a close confidant of the First Emperor, and when Hu Hai fled in embarrassment, Zhao Gao's end was already doomed.

He now seems to have lost his favor, only because there is no one to replace him among the ministers for the time being.

Once I become a substitute, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep the position of the Che Fu Order for too long.

And once he loses the position of the CRRC government order......

Zhao Gao is very popular with himself, but there is a person who is staring at him.

Meng Yi!

Once he loses his identity as the commander of the CRRC government, Meng Yi must not mind falling into the well and putting himself to death.

Zhao Gao knew that he should find a way to do something, maybe just wait for a suitable time? Perhaps......

Of course, Zhao Gao didn't say this to Hu Hai.

In this assassination, Hu Hai has proven his ability.

It's useless!

Zhao Gao's thoughts can only be buried in his heart.

This is not an object worthy of his full trust, and now, the reason why Zhao Gao still supports Hu Hai is just because he can't get out.

Hu Hai, in the end, there was no solution from Zhao Gao.

No way, Zhao Gao is not an immortal, such a disadvantage, under normal circumstances, he does not have the ability to turn the tables.

On the other side, Fuso is far away......

"Silver Mine! Lots of silver! ”

"Golden Mountain!"

"Gold everywhere!"

"Oh my God, where did you get so much gold and silver bonanza in this remote place?"

The black, thin and thin Jing stood with his hands in his hands, and Lin Baiyu was extremely excited on the side.

At the beginning, Lin Baiyu didn't believe that Fusang had more gold and silver deposits than Daqin, not only did Lin Baiyu not believe it, but in fact, most of the Yin and Yang disciples who followed the sea didn't believe it.

The reason why the Yin and Yang family supports the opening of the sea actually has little to do with the gold and silver mines, and the biggest purpose of the Yin and Yang family is to improve the Great Kyushu Theory.

At the same time, see if you can find a new path with your professional skills.

And now...... From questioning to believing, it only took two months for the disciples of the Yin and Yang family to belief.

After purging Xu Fu, Great Qin also took over the gold, silver and copper mines occupied by Xu Fu.

The wealthy gold and silver mines made Lin Baiyu begin to believe in the existence of Iwami Silver Mountain and Zudu Gold Mountain.

Although Zhao Si gave him an approximate location, Jing and his party still worked hard.

After all, Xu Fu did not fully occupy Fusang, and Fusang is still in a situation where savages are poisonous and insect miasma everywhere.

But after all, they were according to the map, and after several battles, they succeeded in finding Iwami Silver Mountain and Zuodu Gold Mountain.

Both deposits are bonanzas!

Rich enough to be bare on the surface of the earth, so rich that the stones on the mountains are colored with gold and silver.

"The gold and silver deposits in these two places are probably more than the existing gold and silver in Great Qin."

After finding two large mines, Lin Baiyu ordered a few simple mining holes to roughly estimate the storage capacity of gold and silver deposits.

The results are amazing.

Many! Too much!

So much, the current mining technology of Daqin is definitely not exhausted.

What does this mean?

It means that next, there will be a steady flow of gold and silver to the Central Plains.

"No! I want to write to Your Majesty to levy conscription, but now there are too few people to mine at all! Lin Baiyu looked excited!

There are too few people, too many mines, and there are monstrous treasures, but the production capacity cannot keep up, which may also be a happy trouble.

Judging from the current manpower, Lin Baiyu has already made an estimate.

Gold can be mined nearly 1,000 catties a year, and silver can be mined nearly 100,000 catties a year!

And this is only the limit of manpower, not the limit of mineral deposits.

At present, Fusang is used as a subordinate concubine of the Qin people, plus the local natives, about 100,000 people.

In Lin Baiyu's opinion, it is far from enough.

Although this is a land of projectiles, its gold and silver richness has exceeded the sum of the current Great Qin?

And the potential of this place is much more than that, in addition to the gold and silver mines, there are also a lot of copper mines here.

Copper! It is also a scarce mineral deposit in Daqin.

"I also want to write to Your Majesty, to set up a county here! Be sure to set up a county here! Lin Baiyu muttered repeatedly.

This is no longer a simple place that can be used and thrown away, there are too many mines, and they can't be opened in a short time, and there is really a need to set up a county here and fully incorporate it into the rule of Great Qin.

"The two deposits have been found, and now that they have gone back and forth several times, and there are enough people to bring in, it is time for me to go." Jing didn't care about Lin Baiyu's excitement, and looked at the vast sea.

Jing is in charge of offshore exploration, and Lin Baiyu is in charge of the search and mining of the Fuso gold and silver mines, as well as offshore related matters.

Originally, the two should have parted ways after Fusang purged Xu Fu, but Daqin's ships were too few, and Lin Baiyu was too short of manpower, so after discussion, Jing assisted Lin Baiyu in Fusang to find mineral deposits, and the twenty sea ships available were fully responsible for transporting manpower to and from Daqin.

Now it has made two round trips, and brought with it three thousand soldiers.

Two gold and silver deposits marked by Zhao Si have also been found, and Jing has long been eager to embark on a trip to the open sea.

"Such ......a hurry," Lin Baiyu frowned.

"With the king's command, how can you slack off?" A smile appeared on the dark face.

Offshore, because of the large amount of gold and silver bonanzas, basically offshore development has been determined.

Next, whether it is to set up a county or to levy and send more manpower, you just need to continue to follow the steps.

The steady stream of gold and silver brought back from Fuso was able to shut everyone's mouths.

Jing had even imagined the shocked faces of the first ships laden with gold and silver sailing back to Great Qin.

However, his journey to the sea has not yet begun.

"How many more days? I also want to practice for you, and the grain and grass should be replenished at the same time. Lin Baiyu opened his mouth to stay.

Offshore is fine, the danger is not too great, but even so, twenty or thirty soldiers were lost during the voyage.

Not to mention the more unpredictable open sea?

Jing and his entourage, it is not an exaggeration to say that nine deaths are a lifetime.

"All the supplies have already been prepared, grain, grass, clothing, vegetables, weapons ......," Jing smiled.

"Senior brother has been busy looking for gold and silver deposits and organizing mining recently, but Nuoda's Fusang has lost all his brains to me." Jing teased.

"You'll have to stay for a few days......"

Jing still shook his head.

"It's long overdue, brother!"

Lin Baiyu ...... silently

Jing didn't want to continue to stay in Fusang, to put it mildly, the emperor was far away from the sky, Jing and Lin Baiyu said that it was not an exaggeration to say that they were the emperors of the soil, in Fusang, the orders of the two of them were greater than the sky.

If you ignore the wilderness and pristine here, it is really cozy.

It's a pity that I can't stay any longer.

The crew was already a little preoccupied with pleasure, and he had to leave sooner rather than later.

After saying goodbye, Jing didn't hesitate too much and went directly to the dock.

Before that, he had already prepared everything that should have been prepared.

The crew responsible for accompanying Jing to explore the open sea was already waiting on deck.

Jing stepped onto the deck, and the crew was frolicking.

"Raise the flag!"

Jing he's out!

The banner of the Black Water Xuanniao, which symbolizes Daqin, was slowly raised and fluttered in the wind above the microwave sea.

"Yang Fan!"

"Set sail!"

Sail raised......

Anchor!

The ship is slowly moving with the wind, and the harbor is drifting away!

There are not many ships, only seven!

There are also very few people, only more than 200 people.

Jing Mo carried the scepter and edict symbolizing the Great Qin.

It's not the first time he's been on an ocean voyage.

But this is Daqin's first ocean voyage!

This time, they are not wanderers seeking to return home, but on behalf of Great Qin, they go to the four poles of the world!

They will formally, on behalf of Great Qin, to have the first communication with all the regimes in this world that can reach contact!

Across the barrier of the ocean and the storm, the word Daqin will be written into the world!

……

On the other side, Zhao Si, who was lying on the bed bored and looking at the handmaiden who was up and down for him, got a good news.

"Zhao Si! Zhao Si! Xu Fu is dead! Xu Fu is dead! ”

Wang Li rushed into the house in high spirits.

"Really?" Zhao Si sat up in shock when he was dying, but he didn't sit up because of back pain.

Although he expected it in his heart, Zhao Si was still very excited when he learned the news.

"Of course it's true, as soon as Master Wang arrived at Xu Fu, Xu Fu's head has been sent to His Majesty."

There is a lag in the delivery of messages, especially when they are far away from the sea.

Xu Fu may have been dead for a while, but now Xu Fu's head has just been delivered.

"So...... Iwami Ginzan and Sado Kanejima have already been found, right? Zhao Si thought with joy on his face.

There is at least a month in between.

"The exploration ship of the far sea has already set sail, right?"

Zhao Si was a little depressed.

Originally, he should have gone this time, but Zhao Si liked this kind of career.

But in the end, a boatload of brothers, only he was stranded on land.
