Chapter 411 The banquet is also a court meeting!

Although the head of the office is just a small official, for the two of them who have dreams of becoming an official, the head of the sixth rank is already very satisfied.

Zhang Feizi, who was sitting at the head of the civil servant, smiled comfortably. His two sons finally realized their dream. It depends on their own how far they can go next.

As for the eldest son Zhang Huaimeng, he was not worried at all. He could still guess that Ying Chang would not let Zhang Huaimeng stay in Xianyang and would let him be the county magistrate, because after the Qin conquered the northwest desert, he would definitely divide a large number of counties, and the Qin Dynasty lacked the county magistrate with governance experience, so 80% would let Zhang Huaimeng become the county magistrate of one of the many counties in the northwest desert!

"Father, I'm hungry!"

At this time, a tender ethereal sound rang out, and Ying Bei, who was sitting next to Tang Hua, pouted and looked unhappy under the high platform.

"Okay, serve the food, serve the food!" Ying Chang smiled awkwardly and quickly asked him to serve the food.

"Hahaha!"

All the officials laughed loudly, and were amused by Ying Bei's appearance.

Dozens of palace maids walked into Fengtian Hall holding wooden plates. The wooden plates were full of delicious foods that were steaming. After the palace maids placed the delicious foods on various seats, Ying Chang raised his hand and picked up the wine pot and poured a little into the wine glass. The civil and military ministers followed suit.

Ying Chang held the wine glass in both hands and stood up from the dragon throne. The civil and military ministers also quickly raised the wine glass to stand up. Ying Chang shouted with a solemn expression: "This glass of wine has been sacrificed for two years. For the Northern Expedition and Western Expedition, the heroic spirits of soldiers who sprinkled their blood into the underground!"

"Dry!"

"Dry!"

Ying Chang drank all the whole thing with his ministers and gave high respect to the fallen soldiers!

After drinking a glass, Ying Chang added another glass and raised his glass to Zhao Hua and said, "This glass of wine should be toasted with General Zhaolie!"

"General Jing Zhaolie!" The civil and military ministers shouted at Zhao Huaqi, and then the king and his ministers drank it all again.

Zhao Hua was moved and burst into tears, and he wanted to cry.

It seemed like just an ordinary toast, but Zhao Hua was deeply moved and was greatly honored!

Ying Chang refilled the cup again, raising his glass to Garu Yue and Aronasun Sheng and shouted: "In the battle of the Western Expedition, the warriors of Ningta Legion sacrificed their blood and bravely killed the enemy, and conquered the most critical battle to conquer the Western Desert. General Ningta and Commander Sheng made an indelible contribution. Come, my dear friends and I will pay a cup to them!"

"General Jingningta! Commander Jingsheng!" The civil and military minister shouted at Garu Yue and Aronasun Sheng with a solemn expression, and did not discriminate against them because these two were Huns.

Garu Yue and Aronasun Sheng stood up excitedly and raised their glasses to return.

At first they were worried that they would not be able to integrate into the Qin bureaucratic group and be isolated, but now it seems that integration should not be a problem.

"This glass of wine, toast the General Hu Lie!" Ying Chang raised his glass again, and all the civil and military officials raised their glasses and shouted: "Toast the General Hu Lie!"

Yang Hu raised his glass with a smile on his face and gave him a drink of it!

All those who should be respected were finished. Ying Chang also sat back on the dragon throne, and the ministers took their seats one after another. Not long after, Chang Zifei looked around with a blush on his face, and smiled and said, "Everyone, Your Majesty has been fighting for the Great Qin for two years and pacifying the troubles in the northwest. This is an emperor that has never been in the past. Now, all the officials respect Your Majesty here three cups!"

"Yes, I respect your Majesty three cups!"

"Ha ha!"

The civil and military officials raised their glasses to Ying Chang one after another. Ying Chang smiled and raised their glasses to respond. He only drank one glass, while the civil and military officials drank three consecutive glasses. After drinking the wine toasting the emperor, the toast process passed.

"My dear friends, eat vegetables, eat vegetables!"

“Delicious, really delicious!”

"That's right, the imperial chef in the palace is not comparable to your servant!"

"Is this comparable?"

"It's a blessing to taste the delicious food in the palace, haha!"

"Uncle Wang, I want to eat this!"

"good!"

"I want this chicken leg!"

"His Highness the Princess wait a moment, I will take it for you!"

All officials began to eat and drink lively. Fengtian Palace was filled with joy. Ying Bei, who was moved, became the joyful water for all officials. He kept asking for the delicacies on the seats of the ministers, and his mouth was full of oil. Tang Hua wanted to take care of it at first, but he couldn't control it at all. Seeing that Ying Chang was indifferent, Tang Hua didn't care anymore and let Ying Bei go back and forth in the hall.

"Qinjiu is really good!"

"Yes, it's so cool. Compared with our goat milk wine, it's just a world!"

Galu Yue and Aronatus Sheng immediately fell in love with the Qin Empire's spirits. When they think of the goat milk wine they drank before, it was like drinking urine. It was completely different. They thought that when they left Xianyang City, they would ask for more spirits, otherwise they would not be able to live a life.

"Please invite Zhang!"

"Come on forever!"

"Zhang Xiang, how do you feel when you come to the Qin Empire?"

"It's wonderful, it's amazing, haha!"

Chang Zifei and Zhang Feizi started chatting tacitly, and the other officials also talked to their colleagues nearby. The three Zhang brothers integrated quickly, but they integrated into the military and soon got along with Zhao Hua and his generals.

This made many ministers wary.

After about a while, Ying Chang raised his hand and signaled that all the officials were quiet. Seeing this, all the officials calmed down one after another, looking at Ying Chang on the high platform with one eye. Ying Chang said calmly: "Stop, my dear friends, I will talk about a few things first!"

Tonight’s banquet is a welcome banquet and a court discussion!

"Listen with me!" The civil and military ministers raised their hands together to respond.

Ying Chang looked around the ministers in the hall and said in a slight tone: "My dear friends, the Qin Dynasty has conquered the northwest desert. Next, it will be rectified and the foundation of the Qin Empire will be increased. There are more than three million grassland people in the northern desert now!"

"I am planning to first draw out sixteen counties, one county, seven counties, and one county, and 30,000 people. First draw out the administrative area. After sending officials to the post and establish an official government. After the government is established, the governments in various places will gather all the cattle, sheep and horses in the local area and stamp the official seal, so as to show that these cattle, sheep and horses belong to the official government!"

"The mark is stamped, and the government will hand over the cattle, sheep and horses to the grassland slaves, and let them be responsible for the stocking. If a merchant purchases it, the government will serve as the party to the transaction. After the government receives the money, it will be kept first and will be paid to the treasury at the end of the year as the local tax today!"

"A grassland people who have restored their civilian status will sell cattle, sheep and horses. They need to hand over 50% of the transaction volume to the government. As commercial tax, they will be collected by the local government. Remember, you must not bully the grassland people. No matter whether they are slaves or civilians, they must not bully them, otherwise they will be dealt with on the charge of oppressing the people!"

"This matter is jointly responsible for the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Personnel. The Ministry of Revenue is responsible for fabricating household registration and liquidating cattle, sheep and horses in various places. The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for dispatching officials. By the way, Zhang Huaimeng has been a county magistrate before, so let him go to one of the county in the northwest desert to serve as a county magistrate!"
