Although he could lift this chest full of gold, he couldn't do it as easily as Meng Fan.
Her evaluation of Meng Fan rose to a whole new level, and she was secretly shocked.
No wonder His Majesty was interested in him. Just his divine power was quite impressive!
Ying Zheng and Wang Jian, who knew Meng Fan's capabilities, didn't have any special reactions.
Wang Jian even opened his mouth to tease him." Kid, your sweet potatoes haven't ripened yet. We made an agreement before, but we have to wait for the sweet potatoes to ripen and verify the yield. The money will only be yours if the yield is true."”
" That's right," Ying Zheng responded with a smile," This hundred gold is not yours yet.”
"Heh, it will be mine sooner or later! It's just a matter of time!" Meng Fan couldn't help but smile. Was there a need to doubt the production of sweet potatoes?
It didn't exist!
Seeing him bring the money box into his room, Ying Zheng did not stop him.
In any case, when the time came to reveal his identity, if the sweet potato production wasn't that high, would Meng Fan dare not pay back the money?
After Meng Fan entered the room, Ying Zheng said to Dun Ruo,""Alright, you should leave quickly. I and Old General Wang will return to Xianyang in half a month.”
He looked hesitantly into the room, feeling a little reluctant. He could only tell that Meng Fan had godly power.
Was there anything else?
However, Ying Zheng's orders could not be disobeyed. Nevertheless, a method suddenly occurred to Dun Ruo, and he immediately took out Li Si's letter and handed it to Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, this is a letter from Minister Li. Please take a look. If you want a reply, this subordinate can bring it back.”Dun Ruo said respectfully.
He didn't read the contents of the letter, but since Li Si had sent a letter, there must be something in Xianyang that he couldn't resolve that needed Ying Zheng's approval. This way, he could stay longer with Meng Fan.
Ying Zheng took the bamboo slips suspiciously and cast a suspicious look at him.
Usually, this fellow was swift and decisive, afraid of delaying a little time. What was wrong with him today?
This was a little abnormal.
Doubt was doubt, but Ruodun's sufficient reason made Ying Zheng unable to find any fault with him.
After a quick browse, Ying Zheng learned that Li Si had suggested building a spiritual canal to facilitate the logistics of the south. He could not help but frown and think carefully.
He naturally knew that the path in the Bai Yue Land was rugged.
In this situation, relying on water transportation could greatly reduce the disadvantages of the terrain. It was indeed a good idea.
But Ying Zheng was a little worried.
Digging the spiritual canal would require a lot of labor, and with the complexity of the Baiyue Lands, it would require even more manpower.
Ying Zheng was worried that the restless forces of the six dynasties would take advantage of this opportunity to rebel against Great Qin's rule.
As he was in the Northern Lands, he could not discuss this matter with Meng Yi, Li Si, and the others.
"Old Zhao? Why do you look so bitter?" At this moment, Meng Fan, who had put away the money box, walked out. Seeing Ying Zheng frown, he couldn't help but ask," Is there something wrong with the family business?"”
Meng Fan sat down next to Ying Zheng and said generously,""It's okay. Tell me. Maybe I can help you think of a solution.”
Dun Ruo was surprised again. Could this guy be proficient in politics?
Although he did not read Li Si's letter, it must be something related to government affairs that could make Ying Zheng so distressed.
Amidst his shocked gaze, Ying Zheng said to Meng Fan,""It's not a business problem. Little friend, do you still remember that I told you that someone in the family is an official?”
" I remember." Meng Fan nodded." Old Zhao, you even promised to help me enter the government!"”
Ying Zheng was speechless.
His Majesty agreed to let him become an official?
He still wanted to discuss state affairs with this kid?
Dun Ruo's face was filled with disbelief. Could it be that not only did this guy have divine power, but he was also really proficient in government affairs?
If that was the case, it would be too terrifying.
He was capable of both literature and martial arts, and he was so young. No wonder His Majesty and Old General Wang valued him so much!
While Ruo Dun was thinking, Ying Zheng continued to speak to Meng Fan.""He said in the letter that in order to facilitate the transportation of supplies to the south, His Majesty wants to build a canal between the Xiang River and Li River in Xing 'an.”
" He felt that this would require a lot of labor, and was worried that the Six Nations would use it to do something, so he sent a letter to ask for my suggestion and wanted to discuss it with me." Ying Zheng relayed the situation to Meng Fan and asked," What do you think of this, young friend?"”
Meng Fan was stunned. Didn't the historical records of the construction of the spiritual canal and Epang Palace happen at the same time?
And it should be a year later.
Why didn't things develop according to the wheel of history? Instead, the digging of the spiritual canal was brought forward?
What he did not know was that it was precisely because of his flapping wings that Ying Zheng had predicted that the land of Baiyue would not be pacified in a short period of time.
That was why Li Si had proposed the idea of digging a spiritual canal in advance.
"I didn't know that Old Zhao's family was so concerned about state affairs!”Meng Fan joked." To be able to speak in front of His Majesty, your position must be quite high compared to your family's official, right?"”
If it was an ordinary minor official, he would not be able to bring his opinion to Ying Zheng.
He didn't have the guts to oppose Brother Zheng's idea, so Meng Fan guessed that there must be a high-ranking official in Old Zhao's family!
Moreover, he was the kind of high-ranking official who could speak in front of Brother Zheng!
