On the morning court session of the second day, Ying Zheng directly threw out this new counting method.
"One, two, three, four, five…"
"Six, seven, eight, nine, zero…"
"Ingenious! It's too ingenious!"
"Just ten symbols can write all the numbers in the world!!”
"Who…did this symbol come from?"
"This person is really talented!"
"He will definitely be a genius in the path of mathematics!!”
“……”
The ministers discussed animatedly, feeling deeply surprised.
Li Si, how's this number?" First Emperor Ying Zheng asked.
"The design is ingenious, easy to write, and convenient for calculation.”
"This is the foundation of the path of mathematics!”
"It will greatly facilitate the living conditions of Great Qin…and it will be beneficial to the people!”
"Yu Guo…can also increase the efficiency of calculations, allowing Great Qin's central hub to operate more freely!”
Li Si's words were all focused on the number itself. He did not care about the person who created the number and did not mention a single word!
"Well said!" Ying Zheng laughed out loud.
" But…" Li Si cupped his hands and interrupted the laughter of the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
"But what?" Ying Zheng asked," Prime Minister, please say it!”
"But the numbers are not precise enough. One and seven, zero and six and nine are all very easy to confuse.”
Li Si cupped his hands again and said,""Therefore, I believe that this counting method can only be used for calculation and marking!”
"Great Qin will still use numbers as the main writing method!”
Li Si's words caused an uproar in the court.
"That's right. These numbers are simple and easy to write, but they are indeed not rigorous enough!”
"Prime Minister Li is really thoughtful. We didn't realize this.”
"Ten numbers are almost all completed in one stroke. If you're not careful, there will be mistakes!”
"We should continue to use digital words during the process of writing and recording!!”
"It's already good enough that it can be used for calculations…How can there be anything perfect in this world?”
The ministers of Great Qin agreed with Li Si.
And there was also a hint of a smile in the eyes of the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
Li Si's suggestion was very reasonable!
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, had the same thought.
Li Si was indeed the right-hand man of the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
His thoughts were exactly what First Emperor Ying Zheng wanted.
"Your Majesty, I have a memorial…"
Suddenly, a doctor stood up and said.
"What is it?" Ying Zheng asked.
"The person who created the number symbol is talented and intelligent. He is the pillar of the country!”
"Your Majesty, please allow him to become an official in the court and perfect the methods of mathematics for our Great Qin.”
This doctor specialized in learning.
He was excited and could not help but recommend the person who had created the numbers to the Great Qin Imperial Court.
Even though he didn't know who this person was or what abilities he had.
However, just from the numbers and symbols, one could see some of its knowledge…
This person was definitely talented!
"I agree. Only those who are proficient in arithmetic can create this number symbol.”
"His knowledge is profound. If he can't enter the court as an official, it will be a loss for the Great Qin Dynasty!”
"I agree…"
"I agree…"
Several doctors and other ministers stepped forward one after another, recommending Qin Yu for the First Emperor Ying Zheng!
Ying Zheng was speechless.
How knowledgeable is this person? Do I need you to say that?
But to make him an official in the court…I don't have such plans at the moment…
" The person who created the number symbol?"
"What's wrong? Couldn't I have created this number symbol with an idea?”
In order to prevent the ministers from thinking too much, Ying Zheng could only take the credit for himself...
He was not greedy for Qin Yu's contribution. On the contrary, he, the First Emperor Ying Zheng, still remembered Qin Yu's contribution in his heart.
It was really…Ying Zheng did not want to introduce Qin Yu to the ministers of Great Qin!!
"Pfft…Your Majesty must be joking."
"We are not doubting Your Majesty's ability!”
"It's just that His Majesty is busy every day…"
" If it's a number symbol, it's easy, but that potato…"
"But that Qu Yuanli…"
"But that God Arm Crossbow…"
"But those three divine artifacts…"
"How can all of them be treasures taken out by His Majesty?”
"If we are not wrong, behind this…it should be the same person, right?”
"Your Majesty, don't hide it. Who exactly is he? Please tell me the truth!”
Hearing the First Emperor Ying Zheng's words, all the ministers in the Great Qin Imperial Court could not help but laugh out loud...
Ying Zheng was indeed a peerless monarch!
But he…had no talent for such an invention!!
Meng Tian was more like it. At least there were some signs!
Hearing this, Ying Zheng felt awkward...
This group of officials was not so easy to fool.
But I…I am the First Emperor of Great Qin. If you question me like this, where will I put my face?
Just as Ying Zheng was feeling extremely embarrassed...
No one noticed that Prime Minister Li Si had his head lowered and a cold glint flashed across his eyes!
Potato? Curved Plow? Divine Arm Crossbow? The three divine weapons of the Imperial Horse?
And the number symbol thrown by the First Emperor…
They all came from the same person?
Then this person's talent…could it affect his position as Prime Minister?
If he was only proficient in one aspect, he would have a place to settle down in the Great Qin Dynasty Hall!!
However, such an all-rounder who was proficient in agriculture, farming, animal husbandry, and fishing…
He absolutely could not let him have the chance to enter the royal court!!!
"My dear ministers are right. This person is indeed talented, but he is only a lowly merchant. It is really difficult for him to enter the court as an official!”
"Dear ministers, don't think too much about it!”
In the blink of an eye, Ying Zheng had already thought of a reason to reject the recommendation of his ministers.
As expected, after hearing that the expert was just a lowly merchant…
Even the Grand Servant and the Young Marshal, who had once sought death, had nothing to say.
It was not that cheap merchants could not enter the court as officials!
Great Qin's official system is clear and honest, and anyone who has made contributions will be rewarded heavily.
Even the common people, if they have the ability to govern the world, can also enter the court as an official.
And the reason why the ministers were silent…
Wasn't it all because of Lu Buwei?
Even though he had been dead for more than ten years, the officials of Great Qin knew what was going on.
First Emperor Ying Zheng was very wary of Lu Buwei.
Even though he was talented and had managed Great Qin well during his reign…
However, he was also tyrannical and did not please Ying Zheng.
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, was not afraid of your talent. He would give you a chance to display your talent!
However, those who were proud of their talents, who held power in the court, and who regarded the imperial power as nothing, would never be put in an important position by the First Emperor, Ying Zheng!!
The disaster that Lu Buwei had left behind was still terrifying even now.
At the same time, the Great Qin Dynasty never had a cheap merchant as an official…
The coldness in Li Si's eyes disappeared when he heard that the other party was just a lowly merchant.
Instead, he opened his mouth and smiled knowingly…
