Baimeng was the oldest person in the village.
When he picked up Zhao Ye, Bai Meng was already almost eighty years old.
In ancient times, at this age, even if Brother Zheng came, he did not have to bow.
Furthermore, Bai Meng was a descendant of the Bai Qi Clan.
Ever since the Ancestral Dragon unified the world and had no land to divide, it was also Baimeng who was the first to give up his own land. This was why there were veterans who followed suit.
Bai Meng was considered the old man who doted on Zhao Ye the most.
He would often make some small toys for Zhao Ye, although Zhao Ye did not like such childish things.
Ten years had passed. If Baimeng was still alive, he should be ninety years old now.
......
Zhao Ye went to pay his respects to the old man.
He knelt there for half a day.
It was Sheng and Qi who dragged him back to the village.
Zhao Ye's gloomy mood only slowly improved after the hundreds of seasoned soldiers gathered.
After a while, the food was ready.
Stewing in a big pot, using chestnuts, meat, and wild vegetables, just adding some salt and pork fat to stew together.
To be honest, it didn't taste good.
However, it was the most reliable meal that Zhao Ye had ever had.
After they finished eating, they chatted and Zhao Ye told them about his story on the ship.
It also talked about the excavation of a thousand catties of grain per mu.
"The heavens bless Great Qin!"
The trembling voices of hundreds of old people, even though they were already white-haired, even though they had donated all their land and only had a few acres of barren land left, even though no one sent them to their graves after they died…
However, they still cared about Great Qin!
Some of the elders even shed tears of joy.
To be honest, Zhao Ye did not feel too good.
He felt that this group of people was really stupid.
The lowest of their titles was no higher. The highest rank is left Shu Chang.
Their rewards were at least dozens of acres of fertile land
They were supposed to live a comfortable life in their old age.
However, they contributed their own fields for their beliefs, then lived in simple houses and planted a few acres of land for the rest of their lives.
Even when he died, it was his old brothers who sent him off.
Perhaps, they had raised her together back then so that she could send them off.
They shouldn't have borrowed the title of nobility. Their titles and fields were exchanged for with their lives!
Yes, Brother Zheng would not forget them, and those old generals would not forget them either.
But apart from those old generals, did anyone remember them?
Other than Brother Zheng who would personally visit every year, who else would come to visit this village?
They're old
They had sacrificed their entire lives, so they should at least enjoy some of the sacrifices.
At the very least, he shouldn't be dragging his old body to face the earth and back to the sky.
Zhao Ye sighed.
In truth, there were many problems that Great Qin had left behind, and they had all been patched up.
Back then, the Shang Emperor's reform had established the system of military merits.
At that time, Great Qin had no land to divide. It was the descendants of the Qin royal family who took out their fiefs to be rewarded by the King of Qin.
And now, it was these veterans who took out their own land.
"Maybe we can set up a veterans consolation organization.”
Zhao Ye always felt that they had given so much and shouldn't have borrowed Wu Ming.
At least more people should know about them.
Even though they had not participated in the unification war, they had made great contributions to Great Qin.
They shouldn't be alone like this!
Zhao Ye looked at this group of old fellows. They were all jubilant.
They did not complain or feel that it was unfair.
At this time, the people of Old Qin were really simple and honest.
After all, Great Qin had just been unified, and the people of Old Qin were truly concerned about the world.
Even an ordinary person regarded the country as their home.
Logically speaking, such a Great Qin should not have died after two generations.
Huhai smashed his good hand into pieces.
To put it bluntly, even if Fusu went against the trend and implemented the enfeoffment system.
Great Qin's National Fate would last for at least 300 to 500 years.
Hu Hai did not go.
Huhai had completely disgraced the Qin royal family. After he took the throne, he slaughtered his brothers and sisters and implemented cruel officials, which made the old Qin people feel cold towards him.
In Great Qin's current state, even if a pig went up and ate and drank every day, it would not die.
"We can't let the veterans feel disappointed!"
In the end, the heart was the key.
It had been many years since the veterans had offered up their land. Zhao Ye had also grown up because of these old fellows.
He felt that no matter what his reasons were, he should do something for them.
For example, building some houses to publicize their deeds.
If it really didn't work out, he would give them some fitness measures.
In short, in a sense, the kindness these veterans had for Zhao Ye was equivalent to their parents.
"In the end, I still lack money!"
Zhao Ye sighed and touched his dry pocket, revealing a bitter smile.
