Give Qin Shihuang a world map.
This was what Zhao Mu was preparing to do. He had been in the study for seven days. During these seven days, Zhao Mu had only done one thing.
Drawing a world map.
The seven continents, the four oceans, and the general location of the world's great powers in this era.
Zhao Mu wasn't a geologist, so the world map he drew wasn't accurate. However, the general outline of the world was stored in Zhao Mu's mind.
As for the fact that the Earth was spherical, Zhao Mu was not prepared to reveal it. Otherwise, the fun of exploration would be gone.
Zhao Mu was filled with anticipation. If he were to present the world map to the imperial court, what kind of shock would Qin Shihuang have!
What decision would the First Emperor make?
……
As the chief registrar of the Marquis of Champion's estate, Xiao He was responsible for managing all the affairs of the estate. Xiao He's ability to manage internal affairs was very strong. As the prime minister of history, Xiao He could manage the Marquis of Champion's estate with ease.
Li Si and Zhao Gao also discovered that the chief registrar of the Marquis of Champion's Residence, Xiao He, was extremely intelligent. He was humble and respectful, and he did things in an orderly manner.
Logically speaking, Li Si, Zhao Gao, and the others should have been unhappy that Zhao Mu did not reply to them when they sent their visiting cards to him. However, Xiao He had helped Zhao Mu resolve the visiting cards of the officials in the court.
Li Si, Zhao Gao, and the others weren't unhappy with Xiao He's reply. Instead, they felt that Zhao Mu was being humble by not seeing them.
Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo, and the others were training the servants in the residence of the Marquis Champion. They did not dare to slack off.
They looked forward to following the Marquis Champion and doing something spectacular!
……
Xia Manor.
Xia Wuqie was responsible for the Imperial Dynasty's medicinal cuisine. He was meticulous and every dish the First Emperor ate had to be inspected by Xia Wuqie...
In addition to checking for poison, Xia Wuqi was also responsible for daily meals, such as bird's nest porridge, ginseng soup...
In the backyard of the Xia Manor, where the women lived.
The old madam of the Jiang family held Lu Zhi's hand every day, unable to get close to him.
A few days ago, Zhao Mu had already paid his respects to his grandmother. His grandmother liked Zhao Mu very much. However, besides liking him, the old madam also instructed Zhao Mu to get married as soon as possible.
They gave birth to children early and continued to have descendants.
The old madam liked the Lu sisters very much. The two sisters were eccentric and understanding. They were simply happy. Every day, there would be laughter and laughter, and every day, the old madam would smile.
Lu Zhi and Lu Chi also liked their kind maternal grandmother, because their maternal grandmother doted on them very much.
Ever since the Lu Sisters entered the Xia Residence, the backyard of the Xia Residence had been filled with two beautiful sceneries. The two beautiful women had brought endless laughter to the Xia Residence.
Zhao Mu had always treated the Lu sisters with respect. He admired the Lu sisters, and because of that, he didn't want to neglect them.
In this era, women attached great importance to status and chastity. If they did not get married, they would blush even if they spoke a few words, let alone physical contact.
How could Lu Zhi and Lu Chi not miss Zhao Mu? They often thought of Zhao Mu, and they also fantasized that Zhao Mu would marry them as soon as possible…
……
The residence of the Marquis Champion!
Zhao Mu put away the parchment that he had finished drawing, rolled it up, and put it into a parchment bag.
In Great Qin, apart from goatskin, there were also brocade and bamboo slips. Brocade was too precious, so there were even more bamboo slips.
Too many to count…
Zhao Mu put away the world map and walked out of the study.
Fan Kuai was waving his two dog-slaughtering machetes, each slash powerful and imposing.
"My lord!"
Fan Kuai turned to look at Zhao Mu, who was walking out of the study, and put away his Dog Butcher Knife.
"Where's Xiao He?"
"Replying to Lord Xiao, Lord Xiao is settling the wages of the servants in the residence.”
"Settlement of wages?"
"Yes, there are a few lazy servants in the residence. Lord Xiao gave them a few sons and sent them away.”
"Okay, go and call Xiao He over."
"Hey!"
Fan Kuai responded and ran to the front yard. Xiao He had already chased the servants away. They weren't lazy, but because they had someone behind them.
Two of the servants were placed in the Marquis of Champion's residence by Li Si, and three of the servants were Zhao Gao's men.
Xiao He picked these people out one by one and sent them away.
The Marquis of Champions 'Estate could only keep servants with clean backgrounds…
"Lord Xiao, Lord Xiao, Lord Xiao wants you to go over!”Fan Kuai ran to the front yard's accountant's office, where the chief registrar of the Marquis of Champions 'estate, Xiao He, was looking at the taxes on the fields.
After Fan Kuai ran into the accounts room, Xiao He put down the bamboo slips in his hands and went to see Zhao Mu.
……
"My lord!" After Xiao He saw Zhao Mu, he bowed.
Ever since Zhao Mu had become the Marquis Champion, Xiao He had warned Fan Kuai and the others to address Zhao Mu as Lord, no matter in front of or behind others.
This was not estrangement, this was etiquette, this was hierarchy!
Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo, and the others took Xiao He's words to heart. They knew that Lord Xiao wouldn't harm them with such a warning.
" Continue your training," Zhao Mu said to Fan Kuai." I have something to say to Xiao He."”
"Hey!"
Fan Kuai picked up two dog-slaughtering knives and waved them around like a tiger.
After Xiao He entered the study room, Zhao Mu made him a cup of tea and said,""In the past few days, you have also seen the ups and downs of the official world. These people have come to visit for two reasons. One, to rope me in, and two, to test me.”
Hearing Zhao Mu's words, Xiao He nodded and said,""Indeed, officialdom is dangerous…"
" Therefore, the more dangerous the officialdom is, the higher one has to go. The higher one goes, the more stable one's path will be…"
Xiao He listened carefully.
In the study, Zhao Mu and Xiao He were talking about the Great Qin's officialdom. They had already entered the officialdom, so they had to gain a firm foothold in the officialdom!
In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed, and the Marquis of Champion's Residence had prepared a sumptuous lunch. Zhao Mu left Xiao He in the study room, and as they ate, they talked about the development of the Great Qin Empire.
"Xiao He, find some craftsmen and beat it according to the method I told you. This kind of paper is easy to write on…"
"Milord, is this paper better than goatskin?”
"This kind of paper is better than goatskin!”
"I'll go to Xianyang in the afternoon to summon some craftsmen…" Xiao He nodded.
At this moment, Zhou Bo rushed in from outside.
"My lord! Sir, the First Emperor has summoned all the civil and military officials to the court. There is an urgent matter for the Marquis Champion! The officials of the palace are outside the residence!"
Xiao He's expression changed slightly. He suddenly stood up and asked Zhou Bo,""What did those officials of Xianyang Palace say?”
"Lord Xiao, those people didn't say anything. They only said that the First Emperor had summoned all the officials to attend the court and requested that the Champion Marquis also attend the court!”
Zhao Mu was puzzled. What had happened to the Great Qin Empire?
Qin Shihuang was actually so eager to summon all the civil and military officials into the court. Zhao Mu did not delay any longer. He changed into his court clothes and boots and drove to Xianyang Palace.
Before Zhao Mu left, he told Xiao He that if he was not around, he had to take care of the Marquis of Champions Residence. The matter of the paper craftsman could not be delayed.
Xiao He cupped his hands." Don't worry, Your Excellency. When Your Excellency isn't around, Xiao He will definitely take good care of the Marquis of Champion's Estate!"”
Zhao Mu headed to Xianyang Palace!
Something big must have happened for Qin Shihuang to summon all the officials into court so urgently!
