"Lord Wei Liao, you don't have to do this."
Bai Yu helped Wei Liao up.
Seeing this, the First Emperor nodded in satisfaction.
Now, they only needed to sow sweet potatoes and take back all of Great Qin's land and Shops.
Just like what Bai Yu had said, it was fine if those nobles and officials obeyed orders obediently, but once they disobeyed Emperor Shi Huang's orders, the Jinyiwei would immediately move out!
Just disobeying the imperial decree alone was enough for Bai Yu to go and confiscate his family!
Speaking of which, when Bai Yu went to Qi River to confiscate the property, he also confiscated a lot of property.
Not long after the First Emperor unified the six countries, Qi Jiang already had so much property. This was enough to prove the fact that he used his official position to corrupt!
Qi Jiang was the first person to be raided by Bai Yu, but he would not be the last.
"It's already the middle of the night. Have dinner at Epang Palace before leaving.”
The delighted Qin Shi Huang laughed loudly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Bai Yu, Wei Liao, and Li Si immediately said.
"Zhao Gao, quickly order the imperial kitchen to send over dinner.”
Qin Shi Huang said to Zhao Gao.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhao Gao quickly replied.”
Not long after.
The imperial kitchen had already sent over dinner.
Wei Liao and Li Si were a little reserved, but Bai Yu wasn't.
In fact, he was hungry!
…………
After having dinner in Epang Palace, Bai Yu and the others left.
After Wei Liao and Li Si parted ways, they returned to their own residences.
Bai Yu returned to the Brocade Guard headquarters in the side hall of Epang Palace.
"Young Master, you're back."
When Bai Yu had just returned to the Jinyiwei headquarters, Qiao 'er came up to him."Young Master, have you eaten?"
"I've eaten at Big Brother's place." Bai Yu nodded slightly.”
Qiao 'er said,"Young Master, you should rest. Recently, Young Master has been resting very late."”
"Then does Qiao 'er want to accompany Young Master?”
"By the way, Qiao 'er, are you like a dowry maid now?" Bai Yu teased.”
"Young Master!"
Qiao 'er was only fifteen or sixteen years old, so how could she stand Bai Yu's teasing? Her pretty face instantly turned red.
Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh when he saw Qiao 'er's expression. He then said,""Alright, Young Master, I'll go rest now.”
"I'll go and tidy the blanket for Young Master now.”
After saying that, Qiao 'er left with a bright red face.
Bai Yu smiled and followed.
On the second day.
The entire Xianyang City shook once again.
Bai Yu, the chief justice of the Supreme Court and the commander-in-chief of the Brocade Guard, was treated as a statesman by His Majesty. He was even conferred a noble rank, which was above the 20th rank!
After seeing the decree of the First Emperor, all the people in Xianyang were shocked!!
It was not enough to have the first two identities. He was even treated with the courtesy of a Kingdom Knight and was even personally conferred the title of Marquis by the First Emperor!!
Not only was he conferred the title of Marquis, but his title was also above the 20th Rank!
This White Feather was too powerful!
All the commoners couldn't help but think.
Then, the commoners noticed the sweet potatoes and potatoes!
"It can produce at least 20 catties of sweet potatoes and 30 catties of potatoes?!!!”
When they saw the instructions on the decree, the citizens were shocked again!
What was the concept of producing 20 and 30 catties of grain?？
Moreover, it had the lowest yield per mu!
If ten mu, white mu, or even a thousand mu were to be sown with sweet potatoes and potatoes, the yield…would reach a terrifying level!
"His Majesty said that the seeds of sweet potatoes and potatoes have already been sown. When there are more seeds, they will be distributed to all the people!”
A literate person said.
From the title of Qin Shi Huang to Your Majesty, some of the people of the six states had already agreed!
Or rather, he had already agreed to it after distributing the Four Treasures of the Study and setting up a private school.
"But we don't have land!"
"How can we sow without land?"
Some commoners said helplessly.
" Who said there's no land?!"
The literate person said," His Majesty's decree says that he will take back all of Great Qin's land, and each family will be given at least two Mu of land. Then, they will be distributed according to the number of people in each family. The more men there are, the more land they will get, but it cannot exceed five Mu!”
"Moreover, we commoners only need to pay 30% of the grain harvested per mu!”
" What?!"
As soon as he said this, all the commoners widened their eyes as if they had heard something unbelievable.
Indeed, this matter was too unbelievable in the eyes of the people.
The land was distributed to the people, and the tax only needed to be 30% of the grain per mu!!
"This…this…"
All the people were shocked by the decree issued by the First Emperor.
"Wait, these sweet potatoes and potatoes were found by the nine ministers of the Supreme Court and the commander-in-chief of the Brocade Guard in the wild!”
The literate person looked at the decree and said word by word,""After a discussion with His Majesty, it was decided to distribute it to all the citizens!”
After saying this, all the commoners were stunned and did not know what to say.
A moment later.
The commoners came back to their senses and immediately cheered.
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty!"
An excited commoner knelt on the ground and kowtowed while calling out to His Majesty!
Once there was one, there would be a second, a third, a fourth, ten, a hundred, a thousand!
The news spread throughout Xianyang in an instant. Immediately after, all the people in Xianyang knelt on the ground and shouted the words 'Your Majesty!'
Among the many people in Xianyang, there were also people from the six states.
…………
Apang Palace, Main Hall.
It was rare for the First Emperor not to deal with government affairs. Instead, he stood outside the pavilion and looked into the distance.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
At this moment, Zhao Gao's voice sounded very urgent.
Then, Zhao Gao's figure rushed over. When he saw the figure of the First Emperor, he hurriedly knelt down.
"Why are you so panicked?"
Qin Shi Huang didn't turn around. He continued to look into the distance.
"Your Majesty, happy news! It's a joyous occasion!"
Zhao Gao panted. After trying his best to calm his breathing, he quickly said.
"What good news is it that made you so anxious?”
Qin Shi Huang turned his head and glanced at Zhao Gao.
