Strong nation-building story, female protagonist as a tool, no CP.
An ordinary person, Tang Qingxi, quits her job and returns home to open a supermarket.
After preparing everything with...
After quickly calculating in his mind, Zhao Siqi said to the Minister of Revenue, "A motorcycle can cover at least 800 kilometers a day on a flat road."
"No need to change trains midway?"
"No need to change cars."
"You just said a motorcycle can travel at least 800 kilometers a day. Does that mean it can go even faster?"
"Of course you can, but the problem is that if the road conditions are bad, both the car and the people will fall down." Zhao Siqi said with some embarrassment. In ancient times, the road conditions were so bad that if both the car and the people fell down, they would most likely lose their lives.
The Minister of Revenue waved his hand and said, "It's fine if it's fast enough. There are always people who have fallen off horses and died."
At the same time, I thought to myself, these motorcycles are no better than those horses. With these motorcycles, a thousand-foot raid is a piece of cake, and using these motorcycles to send messages is also fast.
I don't know what will happen if those barbarians on the grass meet the army of motorcycles. Anyway, horses can't outrun motorcycles. The Minister of Revenue can't wait to see this scene.
After a while, the Minister of Revenue had already come up with countless uses for motorcycles.
"Mr. Zhao, the seed business has been settled. Next, let's talk about the motorcycle. I also want to buy this motorcycle. How many do you have? We will cover it."
"You may not be able to cover this."
The state crammed 100,000 motorcycles into the warehouses at once to expand the warehouses, draining Daqi of its money, and they still couldn't afford to buy them.
"Just tell me how many motorcycles you want."
"3,000, we want 3,000 motorcycles." Gritting his teeth, the Minister of Revenue reported his maximum licensing authority.
"Okay, you pay and I'll move it out for you right away."
The Minister of Revenue waved his hand, and cartloads of gold and silver were delivered to the supermarket. After the silver was given out, the Minister of Revenue was worried about the motorcycle and asked Zhao Siqi and others to give it to them overnight.
It seems that I can't rest tonight. I have to move the motorcycle out for the Minister of Revenue overnight.
During this period, the Minister of Revenue went to the supermarket again and discovered a new world.
This supermarket has everything. This watch is nice, I can buy it as a gift to His Majesty. This mirror is also nice. I should buy some wine. Oh, why are there dried fruits from the Western Regions here?
Finally, the Minister of Revenue bought several large bags of things, but all his money was used up, and the victims became Gao Ya and Yan Yun.
All the money Gao Ya and Yan Yun had was borrowed by the Minister of Revenue. Even the jade pendants on their bodies and the hairpins on their heads were taken away, and they were barely able to pay for the goods.
This time when they came to Guangling Prefecture, Gao Ya and his men brought not only secret manuals and prescriptions, but the Minister of Revenue alone brought tens of millions of taels of silver. All the taxes from the three periods of Daqi were spent here and all were exchanged for goods.
In order to avoid any unnecessary trouble, several people decided to set off overnight. With motorcycles, they didn't need to travel fast. They could reach Shengjing in 5 days at most and deliver all the things to His Majesty.
It was already late at night, and the guards escorting the silver had all upgraded their weapons and were ready to go on motorcycles.
As for the horse and carriage he rode on the way here, he sold them to Jiang Zhi at a discount, and Jiang Zhi could only buy them with a bitter face.
Nowadays, people with some money in Guangling City have bought motorcycles and bicycles. Who needs a horse?
Gao Ya and his men stood at the front of the team, swords on their hips, goggles on their faces, and said to Tang Qingxi with high spirits, "Miss Tang, we'll take our leave now. When you come to Shengjing one day, please come find me. We'll meet again!"
"See you later!"
3,000 guardsmen all got into their cars and started the engines. The buzzing sound even woke up the sleeping birds.
Car lights lit up and drove forward through the darkness.
Tang Qingxi murmured, "I won't be able to look directly at the word 'galloping' from now on!"
