Chapter 305 I suddenly feel....

After the scattered court, Ying Chang went to the imperial study room to review the memorials and reviewed the memorials submitted by the Ministry of Works. The water conservancy plan for Shangyang County was still completed in April. Now the Ministry of Works has started the road plan for Shangyang County. The completion time of the plan is not clear, because every quarter, the Ministry of Works will release 10,000 people to return to Jin.

Time passes slowly, and days pass by day.

As time passed, the Jin Empire paid the military expenses of the Qin Empire and finally sent them to Xianyang. The rich spoils stolen from the Huns were also sent to Xianyang, which made the treasury of the Qin Empire suddenly full, with a total of 28.5 million stones of grain, 550,000 taels of gold, and 56.5 million taels of silver!

Great Qin became rich!

At the same time, 70,000 Jin women were also sent to Xianyang and were arranged by the Ministry of Revenue to various counties. When Jin women learned that they wanted seven or eight women to serve the husband together, they were very unhappy, but even if they were unhappy, no one dared to say a word.

In this other world, except for the high status of women in the Great Moon Empire, the status of women in the other nine states is very low, not to mention that they belong to the trophy of the Qin army, and they have no right to speak and can only be slaughtered by others.

People are not ruthless, what is ruthless is the world, and what is ruthless is the troubled times!

However, when they learned that the Qin court gave them ten taels of dowry each and had money to give them children, they were not very unhappy and dissatisfied. Moreover, the Qin court also issued a series of laws to protect them, which gave them enough face. If this were placed in another empire, it would be impossible to treat it.

When the men of Shangyang County, who were of the right age, were about to marry seven or even eight women, they all laughed, and their parents were very happy, because their descendants were prosperous and their branches were scattered.

Now the court has given up its grace. The court is a matchmaker and married daughters, has children and has child support. This is the first thing that has happened in ancient and modern times. There has never been a similar thing before. For a time, the Qin people in Shangyang County were grateful to the court, and Ying Chang was even painted in portraits to worship.

Shangyang County has endured such kindness, which made the young and strong counties of Hebei, Hedong, Huainan, Nanyang, Guangfeng and Hexi envious and even jealous. On the day of the news, the same thing happened in the six counties, that is, some people went to the government to ask, is there any child in this county, and will the child support fee be paid for?

Obviously, no!

As time goes by, the soldiers of Qinbei Great Wall began to take turns to rest. Sixty thousand elite cavalry were divided into six groups, one group of ten thousand people returned to their hometowns to see their fellow villagers with honors. Each returned home was greeted by the local government, and the neighbors were praised without reservation. The threshold for unmarried families was even flattened by the matchmaker.

On October 1st of the eleventh year of the Holy Qin Dynasty, at noon, the Great Qin Empire, Xianyang City, the Imperial Palace, and the Back Garden.

In the middle of the sparkling lake in the back garden, there is a pavilion with flying eaves like wings. Ying Chang wore a loose black robe, his long black hair scattered on his shoulders, standing quietly beside the pavilion, enjoying the lake view of the back garden, and the nine-curved corridors on the lake, every three steps stood a powerful and well-equipped imperial guard guard guarding the most noble person in the Qin Empire.

"Are there fish in the lake?" Ying Chang asked softly at the lake.

Tang Hua, who was standing next to Ying Chang, heard this and immediately replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, there are fish. Your Majesty only needs to feed you, and colorful fish flock to you. Do you need a servant to get some fish food?"

"Oh~" Ying Chang suddenly sighed.

Seeing this, Tang Hua couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Why did Your Majesty suddenly sigh?"

I was quite interested just now, why did I suddenly sigh for no reason?

Ying Chang looked at the shimmering lake with a calm expression. He didn't know if he had any sudden insights on his whim. He looked at the lake without blinking and said, "I suddenly felt that the whole world seemed to be this lake. The fish in the lake were the nine provinces and countries!"

"If a weak country becomes strong, it is like a handful of bait spread into a lake, causing fish to flock to come and eat the fish. Just like the Jin Empire, the national strength was completely consumed by Yan, Zhao and Qin. Qin would become the largest and hardest bait so that those fish could not eat it!"

In this world of great struggle, it is not a simple matter for a weak country to become stronger. It has nothing to do with the emperor. A strong country will make you weaker neighbors. Neighbors will not make you a strong country. When the Qin Dynasty is strong to a certain extent, the so-called allies may contact other countries and fight against you an undeclared war, which will severely slap your national strength and make the efforts of one or even three generations of the empire in vain.

Ying Chang's words were profound, and Tang Hua couldn't take it anyway, so he could only stand respectfully beside him and listen to Ying Chang's orders.

Step... Step...

At this time, a light footsteps came, Ying Chang did not look back, but Tang Hua subconsciously turned his head and looked over. He saw his confidant Xiaowei walking up the attic carefully. Seeing that the person coming was Xiaowei, Tang Hua turned around and asked Xiaowei, "What's the matter?"

Xiaowei first squatted her waist-hugging ceremony, Ying Chang, and then bowed to Tang Hua, "General Manager, Minister of War Yang Ze, please see Your Majesty!"

"Let him come here!" Ying Chang said with his back to Tang Hua and Xiaowei.

"Abide by the order!"

Xiaowei squatted and responded, then turned around and walked down the attic. Not long after, Ying Chang saw Yang Ze walking on the Jiuqu corridor, walking towards the central attic. After a while, Ying Chang heard footsteps.

Ying Chang walked to the stone table in the center, sat on a stone bench, brewed beautiful tea himself, and waited for Yang Ze to come up.

"My dear Yang Ze, I will pay homage to Your Majesty!" Yang Ze's first move to the attic was to bend down to celebrate the ceremony.

"Sit down and try the fragrant tea I brewed!" Ying Chang smiled calmly and Yang Ze was not polite. He immediately sat on the stone bench opposite Ying Chang. After taking the seat, Yang Ze took out a memorial from his sleeve, handed it to Ying Chang with both hands, and explained:

"Your Majesty, after three months of careful calculation by the Ministry of War, the pensions for the fallen soldiers and the cost of military merit rewards have been calculated. The amount spent has been written on the memorial. Please preview it!"

Ying Chang took the memorial from Yang Ze and opened it to read it. While Ying Chang was watching, Yang Ze immediately said: "Your Majesty, the pension for the fallen soldiers is 2.25 million taels of silver, and the military merit reward is 1.1 million taels of silver, totaling 3.35 million taels of silver. If Your Majesty feels that there is no problem, you can ask the Ministry of Revenue to transfer money to the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War will immediately pay the pension and military merit reward!"

"I have no problem. You will pass on my oral order to transfer the funds to the Ministry of Revenue!"
Chapter completed!
