"Young Master, the people have been given aid and are willing to follow the caravan to the death. There are a total of 125 people!”
Old Liping, the butler, came back and reported the news respectfully.
Behind him, hundreds of poor people in ragged clothes followed him and knelt down.
"We beg Young Master to take us in. We are willing to work for Young Master and follow Young Master to the death!”
Su Chen stood up from the carriage and glanced at everyone.""Where did you all come from?"
"Reporting to Young Master, we are all citizens of the original Qi Kingdom…"
The leader of the commoners raised his head and looked at Su Chen.
"Since the fall of Qi State, we have no land to grow or food to eat. We can only go to the city to beg. Countless villagers have starved to death, and we are the only ones left…"
The country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. This was the outcome. The original land was taken away, and they were homeless like stray dogs!
"Yes."
Su Chen nodded and said,
"We are Great Qin's merchant group. If you join the merchant group, you will be Great Qin's citizens from now on.!!”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was shocked. He raised his head and looked at Su Chen blankly, not understanding what the latter meant.
"We are willing to obey!"
Almost without any hesitation, all the people present kowtowed and said loudly,
"As long as Young Master takes us in and gives us food, we are willing to swear our loyalty to Young Master and Great Qin for all eternity!”
Su Chen nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand."
"Work hard, I won't treat you badly.”
"Thank you Young Master, thank you Young Master!”
The commoners kowtowed one after another, cheering and crying excitedly. Then, they quickly got up and ran to the surrounding carriages to help.
"We'll move these goods. You guys rest and let us do it!”
"Yes, yes, I used to be a blacksmith and have great strength. In the future, we will do these heavy work!”
Looking at the people who had just been subdued helping him with his work, Ying Zheng was stunned once again.
These were the people of the original Qi Kingdom!
Su Chen had also explained that this was Great Qin's merchant group, yet they did not hold any grudges at all?!
Moreover, Ying Zheng had never seen such passion for work!!!
"Old Zhao, do you understand now?”
Su Chen's voice slowly sounded,"
"Great Qin's citizens are humans, and so are the citizens of the six countries. Most of them are simple citizens.”
"Whoever gives them a mouthful of food, they will work hard to get it. This is dozens of times more effective than simply exploiting them!”
"The so-called country is nothing more than a safe and stable place for the people.”
"The place that can give the people peace and stability is their country. It's the place that they swear to protect!”
"Buzz!"
Ying Zheng felt a loud boom in his head, and his pupils contracted and then enlarged.
The citizens of the six states!
Not only in terms of culture, but they also had to conquer the people of the six countries and make them work for Great Qin!
Millions of people!
These were millions of people from the six countries; if they all sided with Great Qin, who would dare to rebel?!!
Ying Zheng's heart trembled as he carefully considered the benefits that this would bring to Great Qin!
Just as Su Chen had said, if the people of the six countries all sided with Great Qin, even if the nobles of the six countries wanted to rebel, who would listen?!!
This was the way!
This was the King's Path that would allow Great Qin to prosper forever!
It was clear.
Ying Zheng felt as if his eight extraordinary meridians had been opened up, and he felt comfortable all over.
Just as Su Chen had said, Ying Zheng's treatment of the six dynasties 'survivors was all based on his own subjective emotions!
In his opinion, the remnants of the Six Nations could not be trusted and deserved to die!
Not only did Ying Zheng think so, but the civil and military officials of Great Qin also thought so. Therefore, no one objected to punishing the remnants of the six dynasties!
However, who knew that it was the stupidest method!
"Phew…"
Ying Zheng heaved a long sigh of relief. At this moment, he was convinced, and understood why it was so difficult to carry out his decree.
"Master Su, since you have such a brilliant view of the world, why don't you report it to the Imperial Court? The Sage will definitely reward you!”
Ying Zheng couldn't help but look at Su Chen and say,"
"Old Zhao, are you stupid? Report my words to the Imperial Court? Do you want me to die?"
"Hu, nonsense, why would I want you to die?”
"Then are you stupid? What kind of person was a Saint? If he heard my words and criticized him, wouldn't he cut me into pieces?!”
Su Chen gave Ying Zheng a disdainful glance and said,"
"Let me tell you, I'm just complaining today. Don't spread it. Otherwise, I won't let you off if I'm unlucky!”
At the end of his sentence, Su Chen continued to curse. He secretly thought that his mouth was too loose and he had accidentally let something slip.
He had only heard about Ying Zheng from the history books, and he was also a ruthless person.
Although Su Chen admired him in his heart, it was another matter to face him!
Over the past year, what Su Chen had heard the most was Ying Zheng's tyranny and cruelty!!!
He was not sure what kind of person Ying Zheng was. What if he was a fool who did not listen to his advice and cut his own neck with a knife?
Report to the court?
Impossible!
It was impossible for him to report to the imperial court in this lifetime. Wouldn't it be great to be a businessman and get the system reward by grinding his movement steps?
Ying Zheng's face was flushed red, and his eyes were filled with resentment and dissatisfaction. He stared at Su Chen and said,"
"Master Su, are Saints so unreasonable in your heart? Is he that unreasonable?"
