Outside the Pei County government office!
Looking at Yi Xiaochuan, Xiao He and Fan Kuai were both bewildered and speechless…
He had finally found a way to serve the country and assist the emperor. What nonsense was this unknown young man in front of him talking about?
Seeing the two of them glaring at each other, Yi Xiaochuan could not help but complain inwardly!
In his heart, these two people were the foundation of the Darkhan Dynasty in the future, and he absolutely couldn't let them go, but he couldn't offend them either!
Therefore, Yi Xiaochuan could only smile at Fan Kuai's angry rebuke, as if he was sucking up to him…
"Don't be anxious. Just listen to this kid.”
After saying that, he looked around and confirmed that there were no Qin soldiers around. Then, he lowered his voice and said,
"The world seems to be unified now, but in reality, undercurrents are surging and it's very unstable…"
"The old subordinates of the six dynasties are restless, and the people are breeding the seeds of rebellion.”
" It's said that all divine artifacts belong to virtuous people. Do you think that this person is really virtuous…"
Before Yi Xiaochuan could finish, Fan Kuai waved his hand rudely and interrupted him!
Following that, the brawny man lifted Yi Xiaochuan up single-handedly as if he was lifting a little chick…
"Nonsense!"
In their hearts, Qin Shi Huang, who was willing to put them in an important position, was already a sage for thousands of years. How could they allow this little rascal to slander him?
Just as Yi Xiaochuan's face turned the color of a pig's liver, Xiao He sighed softly.
Fan Kuai, put him down."
"Now that we're about to set off, it won't be good if we take a life for nothing.”
Hearing this, Fan Kuai thought about it and felt that it made sense. He put Yi Xiaochuan down.
Xiao He continued when he saw this.
"Young man, I don't know what kind of mentality you have to obstruct us.”
"What you said just now is enough to convict him!”
"If you leave now, we'll pretend we didn't hear you. Otherwise…"
Speaking up to this point, Xiao He's eyes suddenly revealed a hint of coldness. He completely lost the good scholar look from before.
A country's prime minister naturally had a certain degree of relaxation. How could he really be a weak and good old man!
Seeing that the two of them had made up their minds to leave, Yi Xiaochuan's heart could not help but sink. However, there was nothing he could do and he could only sigh and leave.
At this moment, his hatred for the mysterious person who changed history was growing!
"Who exactly is this guy?"
"If I catch him, he won't have a good time!”
……
The next day, at the Shanyin government office in Kuaiji County.
In the Sacred Central Crypt, Ancestral Dragon sat in front of a table and looked at the bamboo scroll in front of him with a good expression.
"Your Majesty, in the past few days, the plague has been well controlled in all parts of Kuaiji!”
"The number of infected people is decreasing by tens of thousands. I believe it will soon return to zero.”
"All of this is because of Your Majesty's heavenly virtue!”
Kuaiji County Chief Fu Luo was currently standing respectfully in front of the Emperor, reporting as if he was reciting his family's treasures.
In his opinion, he had worked hard to resolve the plague. His Majesty would naturally remember it!
When the Ancestral Dragon heard that, he only smiled lightly.
Tiande?
If the so-called heavenly virtue could really cure illnesses, then what was the use of doctors and wormwood?
At this moment, Fu Luo changed the topic.
"But…"
Seeing Fu Luo's bashful look, Zu Long immediately frowned.
"If you have any questions, just report them.”
"What are you stammering about?”
Fu Luo did not dare to hide anything when he heard this and immediately replied.
"Your Majesty, although the plague is almost over, the problem of rebuilding after the plague is difficult to solve!”
" The tax revenue of Kuaiji County is less than one-tenth of last year's. It can't support the needs of disaster relief at all…"
Hearing this, the Ancestral Dragon immediately asked.
"Didn't Zhen already order Kuaiji Prefecture to be exempted from taxes this year?”
Fu Luo could not help but smile bitterly when he heard this before continuing.
"Your Majesty, you might not know this, but even if you don't pay taxes, the common people won't have any surplus food to live on!”
"If we can't think of a way, let alone starving people everywhere, I'm afraid it will cause a civil revolt…"
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the government office immediately dropped to freezing point!
The reconstruction after the epidemic was indeed a big problem!
At this moment, Shi Huang felt a headache coming on...
How could he not want to allocate funds for disaster relief? It was just that the world had just been pacified and there were many things to do. The imperial court really could not take out much money and food!
If he had to squeeze out money and food, should he reduce the military expenditure to suppress the rebellion or let the Xiongnu in the north wreak havoc?
In addition, Kuaiji was a tax county, so not paying taxes this year was even worse!
"Li Si, do you have any ideas?”
Li Si, who had been silent all this while, couldn't help but sweat when he heard the Emperor's question.
Ever since he became the prime minister of Qin, the country was rich and the army was strong. The more he fought, the richer he became. When had he ever dealt with such a problem?
"This, this…"
Hearing Li Si stammer and not being able to say anything for a long time, Emperor Shi, who was already a little upset, couldn't help but get angry!
"You don't know anything. What use does Zhen have for you as the Prime Minister?”
The roars of dragons and tigers were like the wrath of the heavens!
In the government office, all the officials knelt down neatly!
"Please calm down, Your Majesty!"
The scene fell into a deathly silence!
Right at this moment, a figure appeared in Qin Shi Huang's mind.
Qin Xiao!
"If it was this kid, he might really know what to do…"
As he muttered, Qin Shi Huang actually stood up directly. Ignoring the gazes of others, he walked straight towards Qin Xiao's residence!
Li Si immediately slapped Fu Luo's arm anxiously.
"Chase!"
"If anything happens to His Majesty, you and I can forget about living!”
The two of them hurriedly followed after him after he finished speaking!
On the other side, Qin Xiao's mansion.
Compared to the urgency of the officials, Qin Xiao himself had a calm and composed expression at this moment.
In the courtyard, he had reclaimed a new land. It was filled with round things, and it looked quite pleasant...
Potato!
This crop that should have been introduced to China a thousand years later actually appeared in the Qin Dynasty because of Qin Xiao's carelessness!
Looking at the gratifying growth of the potatoes, Qin Xiao whistled and was in a good mood.
In this agricultural era, whoever had more food would be the one to speak tough!
The production of potatoes was not something that corn could compare to…
If he could successfully bring the potato to greater heights, then the grain problem of Great Qin's expedition would not be completely resolved, but at least it would be greatly reduced!
Just as Qin Xiao was immersed in his beautiful fantasies, Qin Shi Huang's footsteps had already arrived!
"Mr. Qin!"
Seeing the first emperor's sudden visit, Qin Xiao could not help but be slightly stunned. He casually put the hoe in his hand to the side and clapped his hands.
"Brother Zheng, why are you here?"
Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Shi Huang could not help but be stunned!
That's right, his current identity was not the emperor. How could he ask about money and food?
Just as the atmosphere was about to sink into awkwardness, Fu Luo and his wife finally arrived!
"Elder brother left too quickly. We can't keep up!”
"It's great that Mr. Qin is here!”
