Chapter 228 Five million two hundred thousand acres of fertile land!

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Qin Dynasty! Long live! Long live! Long live! Long live!"

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Qin Dynasty! Long live! Long live! Long live! Long live!"

The ministers shouted happily, venting their feelings.

"Haha!" Ying Chang couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha!"

The hall is filled with laughter from the kings and ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty, and the solemn and sacred Qilin Temple is filled with a joyful and joyful atmosphere.

Qiu Yixiao, who had not yet walked away, felt harsh when he heard these laughters, and his speed of leaving the palace also accelerated.

After a while, the Great Qin Empire announced the world, announcing the truce of Qin and Jin, and the Jin Empire returned the Jin Empire to Hebei County, Hedong County, Huainan County, Nanyang County, and Xianyang City. When thousands of people learned about this, they were so happy that they couldn't stop and wanted to sell a pot of wine to celebrate. However, the food in the Great Qin Dynasty was lacking, and the wine became priceless. The wine that could be bought for ten dollars increased by more than ten times.

At the same time, Ying Chang also ordered the release of Jin officials. Jin officials who were building canals for the Qin Dynasty learned that they could leave. Everyone was excited to shed tears, while the prisoners of war in the Jin army were envious and thought that they would go back when they could.

Time passed quickly, and days passed day by day. When Qiu Yixiao returned to the Jin Empire, he asked someone to return the household registration of the four counties to Qin. At the same time, the Qin and Jin truce, and the news that the Jin Empire returned the four counties to Qin also spread throughout the Great Jin Empire.

"Oh! God helps Qin!"

"One day, this humiliation will be washed away by blood!"

"Have you woke up yet? Why did I fall into this kind of field? I am not a foolish monarch who is in court and insists on destroying the favor of Qin and Jin. Now that our Jin Dynasty has become like this, we are all self-responsible and deserve it!"

"What are you saying? Are you from Jin? How can you say that to Your Majesty?"

"I am, of course I am. The people of Jin should value love and friendship, rather than stabbing the knife in the back. What did the Qin Empire do wrong before? Why did we hit them and why did we destroy them? Isn't peace between Qin and Jin?"

"Yes, yes, it's all our fault!"

"If you do something wrong, you must admit that Yan and Zhao attack Jin are punished by us!"

"You guys...ah~"

The Great Jin Empire suffered a severe blow, awakening a small number of Jin people, letting these Jin people know the mistakes made by the Jin Empire, and also admitting that the Jin Empire suffered its own actions and deserved to be beaten. However, many Jin people still believe that it is wise for the imperial court to destroy Qin. If Qin is not destroyed, Jin will be in danger. They also believe that the Jin Empire was attacked by Yan and Zhao because the Jin Empire threatened them.

Instead of admitting their mistakes, they swear to kill the shame.

.....

Five months passed in a flash, July 15, the tenth year of the Holy Qin Dynasty.

After five months, the household registrations of the four counties returned by the Jin Empire finally arrived in the Qin Empire, and the Qin Empire no longer had to worry about household registration. At the same time, when they went to the four counties, the Ministry of Revenue officials who bought grain in the Qi Empire also returned to Xianyang.

Five million taels of silver were spent 1.5 million taels of silver in the four counties to buy one million stones of grain, and three million stones of grain in the Qi Empire, and a total of three million stones of grain were obtained. According to the market price, one tael of silver and one stone, but five million taels of gold were bought for three million stones.

This is not because officials of the Ministry of Revenue have been corrupt, but because prices have risen.

Merchants seek profit, both Qin merchants and Qi merchants slightly increased the price of grain. Fortunately, the price was not very high and the court could still accept it. Moreover, Qin merchants only raised prices unilaterally against the court, and still used the usual market price for ordinary people.

The court was not angry about the behavior of Qin merchants. After all, merchants also had to make money, and the increase was reasonable.

After getting the purchased food, the treasury of the Qin Empire had 4.7 million stones of grain, 24.7 million taels of silver, and 50,000 taels of gold. The treasury was temporarily filled, so there was no need to worry about the Qin court's shortage of money and food in a short period of time.

The Great Qin Empire, Xianyang City, Imperial Palace, Qilin Palace!

"Report to Your Majesty, the Ordnance Department has recruited a total of 300 craftsmen in the past five months. At present, the Ordnance Department has 800 craftsmen. At the same time, the Ordnance Department has built 1,000 sets of heavy cavalry equipment. Now the three thousand heavy cavalry has been equipped with two thousand cavalry. It is expected that in just five months, the entire heavy cavalry can be equipped!"

In the hall, the civil servants were on the left, and the Minister of War Yang Ze walked out of the queue and looked respectfully at Ying Chang on the high platform.

"I understand!" Ying Chang nodded with satisfaction.

May will be the third anniversary of the establishment of the heavy cavalry. In three years, the heavy cavalry of the Qin Dynasty will finally be released.

At this time, the Minister of Revenue, Jaro, walked out of the civil servants' queue and respectfully wrote a report to Ying Chang: "Report to Your Majesty, I have something to do!"

"Accurate!" Ying Chang said softly with a quiet water on his face.

"Report to Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue has calculated the total population of the four counties by 2.7 million, and 3.4 million mu of fertile land, of which 400,000 Hebei County has a population of 400,000, 600,000 mu of fertile land, 800,000 Hedong County has a population of 800,000, 1 million mu of fertile land, 850,000 Huainan County has a population of 1.1 million mu of fertile land, 650,000 Nanyang County has a population of 800,000, and 800,000 mu of fertile land!"

"In addition to the total fertile land in the four counties, Shangyang County, Hexi County, and Guangfeng County have also conducted statistics. The total population of the three counties is 800,000, a sharp decrease of 90,000 over last year, and the fertile land has reached 1.8 million mu, an increase of 120,000 mu over last year. Among them, the population of Hexi County is 300,000, 500,000 mu, a population of fertile land, a population of 200,000, 660,000 mu, a population of fertile land, a population of 300,000, and a population of fertile land of 640,000 mu!"

"Five months ago, Your Majesty recruited 300,000 troops in the four counties of Hebei, Hedong, Huainan and Nanyang, so the population of 300,000 is reduced, and the total population of our seven counties of Daqin is 3.2 million and 5.2 million mu of fertile land!"

"The total population is 3.2 million, children account for about 960,000, young and middle-aged people account for about 960,000, and elderly people account for about 1.28 million. Among them, 60,000 young and middle-aged women account for about 580,000, and males are about 380,000 young and middle-aged women!"

"Five and two million acres!"

"There are still 380,000 young and strong people. As long as we are willing, the Qin army will reach a huge amount of 700,000!"

"When the late emperor had not yet passed away, our Qin Empire had a population of four million. As long as we were willing, our military strength could be expanded by one million. Our Qin still has a long way to go, at least we must catch up with the peak period of the late emperor's rule!"

"Yes, next we need to quickly restore the population and restore the peak of the Qin Dynasty!"

"In the fertile fields, we have exceeded 5 million. In this regard, we are at the peak of the history of the Qin Dynasty, but there is still a lot of distance between population and military sources!"

"Everyone is here to encourage each other!"

After hearing these words, the ministers looked different, surprised and sighed.

It is not easy for the Qin Dynasty to reach this point today.

PS: "Please order all!"
