In Jian Heng's house, Jian Heng and Ying Zheng were sitting around a round table. In front of them was a boiling hotpot.
"Alright, you can cook now. Put the mutton down first.”
As he spoke, Jian Heng began to slice the thin mutton into the boiling pot.
Seeing Jian Heng make a move, the three of them also began to follow suit and put the mutton into the pot.
"This smell…"
The moment they put the mutton into their mouths, the spicy taste of the chili and the unique taste of the pepper continuously attacked their taste buds. At this moment, they felt as if a ball of fire was burning in their mouths.
For them, who had tasted mutton for the first time, the spicy taste was definitely unbearable, but at this moment, they felt one word-cool!
Seeing these people's appearance, Jian Heng subconsciously felt that something was wrong. Indeed, in the next second, these three people seemed to have gone crazy as they scooped out the mutton that had just been put into the pot and kept putting it into their mouths.
Due to the large number of people, he had prepared ten plates of mutton this time. In the end, they were all eaten clean by these people.
But fortunately, besides mutton, there were many other side dishes. These three people couldn't eat anymore, so Jian Heng settled the rest himself.
"Speaking of which, Old Zhao, what year is it outside now? Has Qin unified the six states?"
Looking at the three people who had their fill of food and wine, Jian Heng suddenly thought of a very important matter.
Hearing this question, the faces of Ying Zheng and the other two changed. Before they came here, they already knew that this village did not communicate with the outside world at all. But now, from Jian Heng's words, it seemed that he was completely certain that the State of Qin would unify the six dynasties.
"Village Chief Jian, how did you know that the State of Qin would unify the six countries? Could it be that someone from your village has left the country in the past few years?”
I know from the history books...
"Hai, this is nothing. I am proficient in the Book of Changes and the Eight Trigrams. A few years ago, I predicted that the Qin country would unify the six countries.”
The moment Jian Heng's words came out, the three people could not help widening their eyes. If one were to say that Jian Heng was spouting nonsense, but now the State of Qin had indeed unified the six countries, but if one were to say that Jian Heng really calculated it, then this young man was formidable.
"To be honest, just three years ago, the King of Qin unified the six countries and called himself the First Emperor. Now, all the countries are Great Qin's territory.”
"Brother Zheng, well done!"
Hearing that the State of Qin had already unified the six countries, Zhao Fa subconsciously said this. This shocked Li Si and Meng Tian. Could this Village Chief be the Emperor's lost brother?
No, no, if he was really His Majesty's brother, how could His Majesty not recognize him?
"Village Chief Jian Heng, just now...。”While speaking, Li Si gave Ying Zheng a careful glance.
When Ying Zheng heard Jian Heng address him as " Brother Zheng ", he was also shocked. But for some reason, he felt that this address was somewhat familiar, so he did not pay much attention to it.
"Uh, this is my pet name for His Majesty. If you think of it this way, only when you treat the other party as a good friend will you give him a nickname. I naturally gave him this nickname because I love His Majesty as if he was my family!”
Jian Heng said without changing his expression, but he was panicking inside. In the modern world, he could naturally call her whatever he wanted, but here, a slight carelessness could cause his head to fall off.
"Village Chief Jian Heng, just now you said that you are proficient in the Book of Changes and the Eight Trigrams and can predict that the Qin Country will eventually unify the world. I wonder if you can predict how long the fate of the Great Qin Country will last?”
"Old Zhao, you're a businessman. Why do you care about this all the time?”Jian Heng asked with a strange expression. Why would a businessman care about the country's affairs every day? Even if you knew about it, no one would believe it.
"I'm just curious. Village chief, please enlighten me.”Ying Zheng said expressionlessly. From Jian Heng's words just now, he could tell that something was different.
"Sigh, okay, I can tell you, but you must not tell others. My Peach Blossom Village is not afraid of others coming to find trouble, but you will definitely have to go out in the future. If you really talk nonsense, you will get yourself killed.”
"I know."
Jian Heng first pretended to count with his fingers, then said to Ying Zheng,""Great Qin…At most, we have more than ten years of national fortune."
"Bang!"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng's face turned ashen as he slammed the table hard. Li Si and Meng Tian were so frightened that their souls were left unclaimed. This Village Chief really dared to say anything. Even if he said some lies, it would be good to scare him.
The person in front of him was Great Qin's Emperor.
Jian Heng saw that the three of them were "scared silly" and said with a laugh,"Unacceptable, right? I was also a little unable to accept it when I calculated it at the beginning. Fortunately, you're just businessmen and not officials. If you were officials, I wouldn't dare to tell you this.”
"Not only are we officials, but we are also the most powerful officials in Great Qin.。。。。”Li Si and Meng Tian smiled bitterly when they came back to their senses. They had already expected the consequences of this village chief.
Saying that Great Qin only had ten or so years left in front of the Great Qin Emperor was a crime that should be punished with the punishment of being torn apart by a car.
However, to their surprise, although Ying Zheng's face was ashen, he did not reveal his identity. Instead, he asked coldly,""Village Chief, can you please explain why our Great Qin only has ten or so years of national destiny? Did Sir understand this?”
"Of course, I understand. However, the secrets of heaven cannot be revealed. I can only say that if you don't kill a snake, there will be endless trouble in the future?”
"If you don't die, there will be endless trouble in the future...。”Ying Zheng murmured the 'criticism' given by Jian Heng.
"Snakes can be compared to enemies. Your Majesty's enemies are the nobles of the six dynasties. These survivors of the Six Nations actually had the intention to rebel?”
Li Si's words woke Ying Zheng up from his stupor. In order to show his recognition, Ying Zheng did not kill all the nobles of the six dynasties, but only confiscated their properties and reduced them to civilians.
"Village Chief's words are absurd. Back then, when the six countries were still around, they could not fight against the Qin country. Now that the six countries have been destroyed, how could they destroy the foundation of our Great Qin?”
In Ying Zheng's eyes, these survivors of the six dynasties were indeed a problem, but it was only a minor illness. Once they accepted Great Qin, this illness would naturally be eliminated.
"Back then, with the support of the country, they naturally wanted to fight with the Qin country for real. Even if they lost, they would still sue for peace. But now that the country is gone, they naturally began to play tricks. As the saying goes, it is difficult to defend against an open spear and a hidden arrow.”
Ying Zheng and the other two fell into deep thought, and the anger on their faces was completely gone. After the six dynasties were destroyed, the nobles of the six dynasties had gone from being in the light to being in the dark. Without the strength to contend against the Qin State, they had been trying their best to smear Ying Zheng's name, spreading rumors to discredit him. The most important thing was that Ying Zheng had no way to fight back.
If Ying Zheng really sent people to kill those who spread the rumors, then his brutal reputation would be confirmed.
Moreover, Ying Zheng believed that as long as he was alive, these people would at most spread some rumors, and not cause any big waves.
However, after hearing Jian Heng say that the six countries 'actions would shake Great Qin's foundations, he could not help but take it seriously.
"In that case, do you have a way to break it?”
"Yes, this method is actually very simple.”
"Deng Deng!"
