60 Chapter 60

That voice was just the beginning, followed by a suppressed voice - "Your Majesty the Emperor, you must live a long life!" Your Majesty the Emperor, you have to live a long time and govern our Great Qin better and stronger!"

It was the most simple voice from the hearts of ordinary Qianshou.

When they enjoyed the peace and contentment brought to them by the prosperity and peace, and when they saw the emperor from above inspecting the dirty construction site, this kind of heart burst out from their hearts, and the sound was deafening.

No one knows the importance of a wise emperor better than at the bottom.

They came from different countries and experienced different monarchs, but only this one monarch ended the war, let them live a peaceful life, let them be fed and clothed, and let them still have food and shelter and even wages when they came to serve in the conscription, which was unprecedented for them who had been digging in the soil for generations.

Everyone has a scale in their hearts, and the scale in their hearts tells them that only by following His Majesty the First Emperor can they live such a good life, and only if His Majesty the First Emperor is alive, their Great Qin will be prosperous for thousands of generations, so Your Majesty the First Emperor, please be sure to live a long life and be healthy.

Countless people fell to their knees.

In the past, kneeling down to officials was due to identity, but at this moment, it was no longer because of the oppression of identity, but from the heart.

As the leaders of the Qian, who are illiterate and even illiterate, they have a very limited way to express their gratitude, worship the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth is to kneel and worship, and pray for the blessing of heaven and earth ghosts and gods, so that they can live a peaceful year, but the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth are legendary things, they can't see or touch, and they don't know whether their prayers are useful, and the next year will be a harvest year or a disaster year, no one knows.

But their Majesty the First Emperor is something they can see and feel, they grew up in troubled times, they know clearly what war is like, and they are fortunate to be one of the leaders of the peaceful and prosperous world, and they know more clearly what kind of life the leaders of the Taiping and prosperous times are living, a kind of day that they never dreamed of before.

And the people who let the troubled times end and make the war peaceful are His Majesty the First Emperor, the people who let them have enough food and clothing, and His Majesty the First Emperor, so they extremely expect that His Majesty the Emperor, who can let them live a good life, will live a long life and be healthy-

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you should rest well and be healthy!"

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you must live a long life, and Great Qin must be eternal!" We are willing to build you a tower, we are willing to serve in the conscription, we are willing to live and die for you!"

shake

The deafening sound rang over and over again on the construction site.

Guards, you look at me, I look at you, and I see the shock on each other's faces.

- For the first time in their lives, they saw the head of the Qian, who praised His Majesty, instead of hating His Majesty to the bone, and wanted to put His Majesty to death even if he was unarmed.

This kind of picture is far beyond their imagination, so that they don't know what to do in the face of thunder, they are a little at a loss, looking at the people around them, and also looking at the leaders of the Qianqian who worship His Majesty as a god, without making a sound.

"Father, they really like you so much."

Hehua was overjoyed, holding Yingzheng's hand with one hand, and pointing out the Qiantou leaders to everyone with the other, "Meng Shangqing, Li Tingwei, do you say it?"

"Yes."

Meng Yi slowly returned the sword in his hand to the sheath, and his eyes fell on the Qiantou who were excited to see His Majesty the First Emperor with their own eyes, and his voice was inexplicably low, "They like Your Majesty very much."

Li Si exhaled softly, "Not only do they like it, but in their eyes, Your Majesty is an omnipotent god."

Ying Zheng quietly looked at the people around him, and his heart was inexplicably strange.

As a monarch, he has heard too much praise and praise, praising him as an emperor through the ages, praising him for his wisdom and martial arts, and wishing him long live and say that the great Qin will last forever.

These eulogies and greetings are ornate in rhetoric and neat in battle, no matter which sentence they are, they are enough to write on the official evaluation list, so that the leaders of the Qian, who want to become Qin officials, can write a policy according to the meaning of the words, and talk freely about what the stability of the regime will bring to the dynasty and the Kyushu of the world.

He was tired of hearing such words, and whenever the newly promoted officials wanted to praise him at length, he would raise his eyebrows and look at that person, and make that person speechless with coercion and ridicule, and no longer ponder the sycophants for the rest of his life, but put his mind on political affairs.

He is a generous emperor, an extremely broad-minded emperor, and never engages in personal revenge.

Wang Bentuo couldn't get sick, he just added some chili water to the wine that Wang Ben was about to drink, Han Xinyu was not shocking, he just deducted some money for him to self-reflect, and then he should reuse and reuse, and did not put them aside because of their own character defects, or cooked rabbits and dead dogs.

Of course, the fact that he has an invincible general with a Lang general has made him look for someone similar to Han Xin for a long time, although he is not very good at being a man, but in Eleven's words, it is easy to use, cheap and solid, which is a kind of military general that cannot be refused for a dynasty whose treasury is not yet full.

place

Ask yourself, he is an emperor with a high tolerance for courtiers, he will not cook rabbits and dogs, nor will he repay him, and he does not require the courtiers to be exquisite, and at the same time handle government affairs well, he can also speak beautifully, coaxing his heart to bloom, the kind of person who is extremely capable but can't speak and do things, he can also be entrusted with reuse, and will not put aside because he doesn't listen to what he says.

Thousands of years later, descendants will scold him as a tyrant and a faint monarch, or praise him as the first emperor of the ages, he doesn't care at all, what he cares about is whether his Great Qin will last forever, and whether the future monarch of Great Qin will inherit his legacy and govern the Great Qin that he has devoted his whole life to.

But despite this, when he heard the words of the Qianshou, when he saw the excitement on the face of the Qianshou, he was suddenly touched in his heart, and suddenly felt that it was not a bad thing to be liked by others, and even began to understand those monarchs who wanted to gain a good reputation if they were compromised.

- To be worshipped, to be loved, to be worshipped as a deity, is indeed a wonderful thing.

Ying Zheng turned around slowly, and for the first time, he faced the head of Qian, who was rarely looked down upon by him.

"Stop talking, Your Majesty has something to say to you!"

The accompanying officials were extremely good at reading people's faces, and when they saw Yingzheng turn around, they immediately stopped Qiantou's resounding cry in the sky, "Silence, silence!"

"Your Majesty has something to say!"

Once the leaders who do not understand the order and the law become agitated, it will be extremely difficult to manage, but this time, as soon as the officials shouted at the top of their voices, they invariably pulled the sleeves of their clothes and signaled them to stop talking.

The noisy construction site slowly quieted down. The construction site, which houses thousands of people, was silent at this moment, so quiet that you could almost hear the sound of needles falling on the ground.

Hehua almost let out a cry of surprise.

She had only seen such a reaction in well-trained sergeants, and obedience to orders was the sergeant's accusation, so when Shangfeng gave an order, the noisy barracks would be silent, but the leaders were not, they were ordinary people without any training, it was their nature to watch the excitement, and it was their instinct to talk about the excitement, but at this time, they actually overpowered their nature and instinct, and they all held their breath and stared eagerly at her father, their Emperor Majesty.

They waited for him to speak, for the all-powerful emperor to speak to them. Regardless of the content, anything is good, as long as the emperor speaks, they will take it as a guideline.

"I will live a hundred years old, be healthy and safe, and bless every Great Qin citizen." The emperor's deep voice sounded slowly, "You should be diligent and respectful of the law, and be loyal

You love the country and live up to my blessing. "

These words are like a drop of water poured into hot oil, and the pot explodes on the construction site in an instant-

"We will!"

"Your Majesty the Emperor, we will!" We will always be loyal to you and to Daqin!"

Countless people burst into tears.

Countless people were hoarse.

They shouted loudly, excited, and swore allegiance to their emperor. At this moment, they are no longer the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, but have truly integrated into Great Qin, and truly regard the emperor as their own monarch.

Listening to the deafening sound and looking at the tear-jerking picture, Hehua suddenly felt that his eyes were a little sour.

This is probably the two-way rush that the book says? The emperor's heart is the world, and all the people in the world also love their monarch.

Hehua sniffed, "Father, it's good to be liked." "Father will always be liked, always."

is not a short-lived tyrant, let alone an emperor of the ages who makes people sigh, but the Great Qin Emperor who is loved and liked by the leaders of Kyushu.

Ying Zheng stretched out his hand, and his palm fell on Hehua's head.

The child who is no longer an ignorant child is much taller than before, and his hair is not soft when he was young, but the amount of hair has increased, and the hair quality is more and more like satin, which can not only be tied into two small knots, but also can be pulled into a simple cloud, with beaded jewelry on it, hanging a few strings of small tassels, and swaying on the side of the face for a while.

Ying Zheng rubbed Hehua's hair, stroked the beads between Hehua's sideburns, and his sharp phoenix eyes were far away for a moment.

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize a boat?" The emperor sneered lightly, and slowly said what Hehua had said, "They won't be disappointed."

"No, definitely not!"

Hehua nodded heavily, "Father is so good to them, it's too late for them to like Father, how can they overthrow Father?" Lost in the reply, the difference of one word, but the meaning is very different, Ying Zheng smiled, but did not correct Hehua's words. - Not necessarily.

"Let's go back."

Win the political road.

The little temple people no longer pretended to be and sang sharply, "Your Majesty is driving-"

"Your Majesty walks slowly.

"

"Your Majesty, slow down." It had just rained, the ground was slippery, and His Majesty looked at the road as he walked. "

The leaders of the Qian, who had never dealt with the nobles, did not know how to get along with the nobles

They didn't understand that at this time they should say to send off His Majesty, instead of the road is difficult, reminding His Majesty to pay attention to his feet, they looked at the background of the emperor's departure, and repeated their words over and over again-

"Your Majesty beware, the road is not easy to walk." "Your Majesty, watch your step, don't slip and fall."

Li Siwaner, "Although the head of Qiantou does not know the number of etiquette, his sincerity to His Majesty is rare and valuable."

"No, they're very polite."

Meng Yi glanced back at the people who were looking at Yingzheng, and his consistently clear voice was low at this time, and there was even an inexplicable sinking inside, "They are the most polite people in the world, and they are also the people in the world who know how to repay their kindness."

&nbs

p; It was the first time that Hehua heard Meng Yi's voice like this, and couldn't help but look up at Meng Yi, the man looked up at the sky, there was an imperceptible red in the corner of his eye, as if his eyes were a little uncomfortable, his right hand was raised, his thumb and middle finger were pressed on the corners of his eyes, and he gently pressed his eyes.

Hehua laughed. - Meng Shangqing is a very affectionate person.

Hehua stretched out his hand and took Meng Yi's left hand.

His left hand was held, that hand was very small and soft, even if he didn't have to look back, Meng Yi knew who the owner of the hand was, so Meng Yi smiled, let go of his right hand pressed at the corner of his eye, and the palm fell on Hehua's face, covering the eyes that looked at him.

Oh, Meng Shangqing, what are you doing covering my eyes? Hehua shouted, "I can't even see the way!"

Meng Yi's voice returned to clear, What does it matter if you can't see the road? The minister will hold the princess's hand and will not let the princess fall.

Meng Yi laughed loudly, covered the little princess's eyes with one hand, held the little princess's hand with the other, and walked on the construction site step by step, walking steadily every step.

Li Si shook his head and chuckled, Meng Shangqing is always safe and steady, but as long as he is with the princess, his temperament is like a child.

Ying Zheng lazily raised his eyebrows.

It's good, he doesn't like people who are dull and calculating.

The group left the construction site of Xianyang New Town, but did not return to Xianyang Palace, but went to the factory outside Xianyang City. Cement factories, crystal factories, glass factories, paper mills, various factories worked overtime to produce all kinds of things that the dynasty needed.

The cement was sent to Xianyang New Town, the crystal waited for the caravan to pick it up, and the glass factory was divided into glass for construction and glass for fun, and the glass for construction was sent to Xianyang New City with cement, and the glass products for fun were waiting for the caravan to come to pick up, as for the paper mill, it was needless to say, the paper made or was Hu

The caravans were bought at high prices, or distributed throughout Kyushu for use or sale by local Qin officials.

Thanks to the strict secrecy of Ying Zheng's repeated orders, papermaking has been firmly in the hands of the Daqin official, and has not flowed to private merchants, let alone been bought by the Hu caravan at a high price to take back to his homeland, so the price of paper sold to the Hu people is still high, and it has been one of the important revenues of the treasury for a long time.

But since the rise of glass crystal, the proportion of paper has been declining year after year, and this year, there are only a few points left, not that paper is not sold

Go out, but the crystal glass is gradually prospering, not only deeply liked by the Hu people, but also by the Qin people very much like the exquisite crystal glass products.

Rich people replace the window screens with glass, and those who don't have money buy a few ornaments and put them at home, in short, there must be some glass crystals at home, otherwise they are a head short when they get along with people.

Lu Pheasant led everyone to continue walking.

These factories belong to Daqin, under the control of Su Neishi, Zhi Su Neishi values Lu Pheasant, and because of the princess, he does not look down on women, seeing that Lu Pheasant is quite talented, he tried his best to transfer her to the factory against public opinion, and let her be responsible for the production and sales of the factory.

Facts have proved that Zhisu Neishi did not missee the wrong person, when other factories broke out one after another corruption and bribery, and even privately brought Hu people to the factory to see the production, and the production technology and technology were almost leaked, the factory in charge of Lu Pheasant did not have the slightest problem, not only did there be no problem, but also managed several factories in an orderly manner, whether it was production or sales, it was far beyond the other factories.

Lu Pheasant said, Your Majesty, the trade in the southwest has been opened, and most of the tribes have submitted to Your Majesty, and the territory has been included in the territory of Daqin, where although it is poor, the local area is rich in medicinal herbs and fungi, as long as it can be transported to Xianyang, it can be sold at a good price.

"We need medicinal herbs and fungi from the southwest, and the southwest likes our crystal and glass, but today's factories can no longer meet the needs of so many people, even if the workers work in three shifts, the production is far from enough."

The third class was proposed by Hehua.

When it was first proposed, everyone didn't think about it, thinking that Hehua was too concerned about the heads of the Qian, and ignored that only when a steady stream of handicrafts were produced, the treasury would have extra money to pay the wages of the leaders.

In their eyes, Qianshou used to be a humanoid animal, and more people would make up for it if they were tired of death, but now it is different, they feel sorry for Qianshou enough, and they are good enough for Qianshou to not only give Qianshou a salary, but also provide food and accommodation for Qianshou, and even take a few days off every month, so that they can go home to visit relatives, in this case, what's wrong with letting them work overtime to do things? They are so good to the Qianshou, Qian

Shouldn't the leaders be working day and night?

Everyone did not seriously implement the "three shifts" proposed by Hehua, and only Lu Pheasant took what Hehua said to heart.

- She is not a high-ranking Guanzhong nobleman, she is just an ordinary Qianshou with a little money in her family, she clearly knows how difficult it is for ordinary Qianshou, and Shi knows how fragile people's lives are under high-intensity work.

She can't manage the factory that others are responsible for, and she has no right to manage it, but as long as it is the factory she is responsible for, she must "work in three shifts", go to work on time, and put an end to long-term overtime.

At the same time, she also recruited a large number of female workers, making crystal handicrafts is not only hard work, but also needs to be careful and patient, in the production of crystal jewelry, women in this kind of thing is naturally better than men, do not work overtime, highly concentrated, make things better than men to do, and the wage is one-third lower than men.

The things made are good-looking, the cost is lower than other factories, the style is upright, there is no corruption and bribery, and there is no close relationship with the Hu people, and there is a suspicion of leaking the process.

- Of course, the premise is that they won't abandon Lu Pheasant just because she is a woman.

How many more factories do you want me to expand?

Ying Zheng casually picked up a crystal hairpin and tried it on Hehua's sideburns.

The people around him were very pale, and when they saw that Yingzheng tried crystal beads for Hehua, he hurriedly brought a mirror, and Lu Pheasant put the mirror in front of Hehua, so that Hehua could see himself inside.

Lu Pheasant's head, Your Majesty is wise.

"The orders for several factories that Chen is in charge of now have received orders for the beginning of next year, and if the things are delivered in January, they will earn a month's money late, so why not expand a few factories to produce together?

If two more factories are expanded, there will be six factories under the command of Lu Changcheng. Li Si stroked his beard.

Chang Cheng, a new official position established by Yingzheng after the establishment of the factory, responsible for the production and sales of the factory, with 600 stones, under the history of Zhisu, there are currently six people.

The position of the internal history of the governance of the Su is very important, and it will not be held by the officials and nobles who produce money, but will only be selected from the factory, and Lu Pheasant, who currently holds four factories, is one of the people who are most likely to become the next Zhisu internal history.

Meng Yi's eyelids raised slightly, "Six factories are too few, with Lu Changcheng's talent, we should build a few more factories, so that Lu Changcheng can show his strength and add another thousand gold to the treasury of Daqin."

Meng Shangqing, don't say that. Lu Pheasant said with a smile, Xiao He Xiao Changcheng is also an extremely powerful person, in the opinion of the lower officials, it is best for him to be responsible for the newly built factory.

Are you kidding?

It is enough for her to become a factory leader of four factories as a woman to attract the attention of the world, if she adds two more factories, wouldn't it be to make the old ministers in the court angry to death?

The princess is still young, she doesn't have to fight for a long time, and when the princess grows up, there will be the day when she calls for wind and rain.

Lu Pheasant smiled, Not only Xiao Changcheng, but also Zhang Zifang from Yingchuan County, they are all very talented people. "If Your Majesty wants to expand the glass and crystal factory, you can put it in the hands of the two of them."

But Sister Pheasant is also very powerful.

Hehua was a little strange, and while fiddling with the beads between his temples, he asked Yingzheng, "Father, can't you let Sister Pheasant be in charge of two more factories?"

Lu Pheasant was a little helpless.

The princess is too young, and she doesn't know the truth that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, she is already too eye-catching, if she is in charge of two more factories, I am afraid that she will be tossed in the future.

Yes.

The crystal hairpin in his hand does not match Hehua's clothes, Yingzheng took it off casually, took a new palm from the glass table, and re-hairpinned it between Hehua's sideburns, Why can't it?

The emperor's voice was faint, his eyes looked at the crystal hairpin between Hehua's temples, but he asked Lu Pheasant, Lu Pheasant, are you afraid?

Lu Pheasant's breathing suddenly lightened.

Fear?

No, she never knew how to write a scared word. If she was timid and weak, she would not earn a place of her own as a woman in a court full of men.

There is a saying in the Book of Changes, the gentleman hides the weapon in his body and moves when the time comes. She is like this, waiting for the princess to be pinned on high hopes, the pattern of Daqin is completely rewritten, and she soars into the sky.

But now, it seems that the first emperor of the ages does not allow her to hide her clumsiness. It's not that she is not allowed to hide her clumsiness, he now wants her to stand on top of the court as a woman, paving the way to the throne for his pearl in his palm.

Of course, this feeling is very likely to be an illusion on her part, the land of China has never had a female monarch, and no matter how ambitious His Majesty the First Emperor is, no matter how empty his eyes are, he may not be able to break the patriarchal system that has existed for thousands of years.

He asked her to manage a few more factories, not necessarily to pave the way for the princess, but the income of her factories was indeed considerable

New city and some of the coffers are struggling to make some money.

When the new city is built, when the treasury is full, and when Daqin no longer needs so much money urgently, she, an eye-catching woman who is different from men, will naturally be

was ruthlessly abandoned by the emperor, and he was casually given an honorary title.

At that time, she had made enemies in the court for many years because of being a woman, and once she lost her rights, the result waiting for her can be imagined, she could not be honored at all, and it was impossible for the officials to be alone, and it may be a very decent ending to get a whole corpse.

She shouldn't have been tempted. The officials should not come forward at this time, the risk is too great to be drawn.

But what if?

What if the emperor really saw the great power contained in a woman, saw that although the princess was a woman, her mind and ability far surpassed that of many princes, and saw that the future Daqin would move towards a new prosperous era under the governance of the princess?

For the sake of this prosperous era, for the little princess raised in the palm of his hand, this ambitious emperor is willing to gamble, break the patriarchal laws and rules that have been passed down for thousands of years, and let the unprecedentedly powerful Great Qin Dynasty have a female monarch?

Chang Pheasant's fingers tightened slightly.

- Ambition has never been something that is unique to men, and as a woman, she has it.

"I'm not afraid."

Chang Pheasant slowly spoke, "The Lu of the Eater is not thick, and the mourning is not prosperous." ”

"The minister is recommended by the princess and relied on by His Majesty, Her Majesty the princess is like this, what is the minister afraid of?"
