I Bring a System to Flirt with the First Emperor and Build Infrastructure

Zhao Jun harbored an unknown secret: she was an online friend with His Highness the First Emperor from thousands of years ago. Every time she sent him cheap items like water cups and glass, she cou...

Chapter 296: Ways to Make Money Quickly

Zhao Jun was silent.

If what Ying Zheng said is true, then all military funds will be transferred to her in the future.

She counted on her fingers.

Judging from the current income and expenditure details of the Neishi Mansion, it is likely that the income is not enough to cover the expenses.

This won't work. Why should she hear so much bad news in one day?

Ying Zheng took a sip of water, noticed her wonderful expression, and comforted her.

"It's okay, there's still time, you can think of a solution."

He said it very calmly.

Zhao Jun was silent.

Even if she opened a workshop overnight, all the money she earned would probably have to be invested in military expenses in the future, which was not acceptable.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask why the monthly military expenditure is so high. How many soldiers does our Qin State have now?"

Zhao Jun said seriously.

"Well, at least about one and a half million."

Ying Zheng answered quickly.

"One million and a half? That's too much."

After the unification of the six kingdoms, there will be no need for so many soldiers.

"Your Majesty, I have said before that after we have conquered Qi, the number of troops must be reduced."

She began to persuade him earnestly.

"Yes, I know. I have already thought about it. It is just right to send these cut-off people to Shangjun to build the Great Wall."

Ying Zheng gave Zhao Jun a look that showed he had calculated it in advance.

Zhao Jun fell silent again. In her opinion, building the Great Wall would cost money.

No, it seems that cutting costs alone cannot fill this hole.

We still have to find a way to open source it.

Zhao Jun racked his brains, thinking of a way to make money quickly.

"What are you staring at?"

Ying Zheng pushed her gently.

With just this push, Zhao Jun suddenly had an inspiration.

I thought about it quickly and felt that this method was very feasible.

Her eyes suddenly flashed with excitement.

"Your Majesty, I have a great idea that will make me money quickly. I don't have to build any workshops, and I can get a lot of money. Are you interested in listening?"

"Really? Tell me what you're going to do."

Ying Zheng was also very interested in this method of making money quickly.

Zhao Jun smiled mysteriously and spoke quickly.

"Your Majesty, after the last Qi State is defeated and the six kingdoms are unified, will there be no more sticks to fight with? Actually, it is not."

"Your Majesty, if you go further north, you know the grasslands where the Hu people live. In fact, there are still large areas of land that do not belong to Qin."

"There are very rich resources under the land there, including many gold and silver mines."

"This is a quick way to make money. Why don't we occupy that piece of land? Then the gold and silver underground will belong to us."

Mr. Zhao recalled the jokes made by modern people about Qin Shi Huang, saying that if they had given him a map of the world, perhaps all of Europe would be theirs by now.

Now it's here.

The place Zhao Jun just mentioned is actually modern Inner Mongolia, and there are indeed many minerals there.

On the other hand, Ying Zheng's eyes became brighter and brighter when Zhao Jun was speaking just now.

Now that Zhao Jun had finished speaking, he was waiting for him to speak.

Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then slammed the table hard, shaking the memorials on the table.

"Good! All under heaven belongs to Qin, and I will definitely take over all that land."

Ying Zheng was so happy that he even laughed out loud a few times, which scared the King of Zhao.

"I have decided. After the State of Qi is eliminated, the first thing I will do is send troops to the grasslands!"

Zhao Jun also smiled. She felt that she had come up with a brilliant idea.

After temporarily solving the funding problem, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, she would follow Fusu to the university from time to time for supervision.

Or ask Meng Yi to follow up on the progress of track laying.

All that was left was to work in the Neishi Mansion and Qingliu Xiaohe's workshop.

A few more months passed, and the primary school curriculum for this year came to an end, and it was time for vacation.

The King of Zhao also organized Fusu to analyze the conditions of the primary schools that were inspected.

The main research is about expanding primary schools in other areas next year.

Universal basic education was built up bit by bit in this way.

This year has passed by in a hurry.

Although Zhao Jun stayed in Xianyang this year, he did no less than in any other year.

She even felt that this year was the most crucial time for her to do something.

This year, Mr. Zhao spent the New Year in the palace.

Unlike last year, this year in addition to Ying Zheng and Fusu, Qingliu is back, and Meng Zhi has also joined.

Everyone's life is getting better and better every year.

In 222 BC, something different happened in history.

The speed at which Qi surrendered was so fast that just a few months after the New Year, the news of Qi's surrender reached the city.

Therefore, Qin unified the six kingdoms one year earlier than in history.

This month, the entire Qin State was immersed in a sea of ​​joy.

Of course, Zhao Jun was also infected by this atmosphere.

A few days later, Ying Zheng decided to hold a grand banquet because of this final victory.

Many ministers participated, including Zhao Jun Fusu Mengyi, etc.

At the banquet, Ying Zheng was very happy and drank a lot.

At first, Zhao Jun just chatted quietly with people she was familiar with. It was not until Ying Zheng asked a question at the end that she suddenly remembered that there seemed to be records about this in history.

"After Qin unified the six kingdoms, do you think the system would be divided into counties?"

Zhao Jun heard a familiar question.

The ministers were silent for a moment. Now everyone could see that the king was determined to implement the county system.
