Transmigrating to Great Qin, Zhao Qingrui found herself with land and money at home, and a cheat system. To avoid becoming cannon fodder in chaotic times, she brought her father to recruit soldiers...
"Mr. Gan is really popular." Zhao Qingrui said with emotion.
"Your Highness is joking. If you reveal your identity, those people will definitely be more enthusiastic towards you." Gan Luo chuckled.
Compared with him, Zhao Qingrui is the real love, but she also deserves the respect of so many people.
The journey back to Xianyang was smooth and there was no danger.
Entering Xianyang, which was still in the suburbs, Gan Luo stared at everything around him with wide eyes. There were people moving around, most of them were from Guizhou, and they all had smiles on their faces.
"This, this, why did they all move here?" Gan Luo asked in confusion.
"Mr. Gan has been in Shu County for many years, so it's normal that he doesn't know the situation here. This is the residential area built by His Highness. His Highness needed to rebuild the city of Xianyang, so he moved the capital of Qiandu here. What do you think of this place, Mr. Gan?" Dun Ruo bowed.
"It must cost a lot to build such a house, right?" Looking at these tall buildings, Gan Luo was not used to the huge changes in Xianyang.
But it is incredible that such houses are so spacious and bright, and they are all buildings like this.
"It didn't cost much, and I even made a little profit." Zhao Qingrui curled his lips.
"Oh? I'd like to hear the details." Gan Luo looked at Zhao Qingrui in confusion. Gan Luo did not quite agree with His Majesty's large-scale construction projects in the past. Now he wanted to do large-scale construction projects again. Even if Daqin began to become wealthy, the national treasury should be full before doing these things.
"I contracted these houses to businessmen and asked them to build them. I paid part of the money and gave up some commercial taxes, which made those businessmen willing to do it." Zhao Qingrui said briefly.
"Taxation is the foundation of the country. Your Highness must not be careless next time." Taxation, or commercial tax, Gan Luo's heart skipped a beat. This prince really has a big heart and dares to promise anything.
"Of course I understand. Not much was given away. Now that the tax law has been revised, Daqin's goods are also circulating. This is a win-win situation for both Daqin and those merchants." Zhao Qingrui knew the situation of the national treasury very well, otherwise she would not dare to say this.
It was only because of the accumulation in the past few years that the treasury's income exceeded its expenditure, otherwise she would not have started infrastructure construction.
"As long as Your Highness understands the situation," Gan Luo nodded.
"I don't quite understand the current national policy of the Great Qin. Chief Dun Ruo, would you be willing to talk to me about it?" Gan Luo looked at Dun Ruo, wanting to know about the national policy of the Great Qin.
Seeing such a prosperous capital city of Xianyang, Gan Luo became even more interested.
"Yes." Seeing Zhao Qingrui nodded, Gan Luo hurriedly said and began to talk about the various things Zhao Qingrui did after returning.
Zhao Qingrui also listened with great interest. If Daqin was not short of manpower now, she could have made a bigger move.
Gan Luo knew some of the court's policies, but only a small part of them.
Newspapers were popular in Shu County, and he also liked to read them. However, there were not many articles about national affairs in the newspapers, but more about various strange stories.
Now listening to Dun Ruo's detailed account, Gan Luo was shocked.
"The waves behind will always push the waves ahead." After hearing what Dun Ruo said, Gan Luo was filled with emotion for a moment.
He once boasted of his intelligence, but he was not good at governing the country. After the unification of the Qin Dynasty, he retired. Now, after hearing all this, he thought that a wise ruler would emerge from the Qin Dynasty.
"Your Majesty is now leading the army in person..." Gan Luo looked at Wang Jian and then at Zhao Qingrui.
"You kid, don't talk nonsense. Your Highness is still young and needs His Majesty's guidance and more experience." Wang Jian glanced at Gan Luo, then followed Zhao Qingrui's footsteps.
"Marquis Wucheng is right." Gan Luo suddenly laughed.
Your Majesty now has the ambition to unify the world, but the Crown Prince is not good at military affairs, so these matters still require Your Majesty to handle.
In Xianyang City, the capital of Guizhou was busy moving.
The common people were very satisfied with the court's relocation policy. Not only did they receive a subsidy of half a pound from Qin, but they were also allocated tall and bright buildings. Such houses were a thousand times better than what they had lived in before. Those who were unwilling to live there must have been crazy.
Those who were unwilling were basically nobles and businessmen. They had many houses and shops, and they also kept a lot of slaves at home.
However, there were too few single-family houses with courtyards in the suburbs, and the space in the buildings was not large enough to accommodate so many slaves. The compensation given by the court was not cost-effective for them.
However, the imperial court directly issued a death order, requiring them to move out within three months. If they were unwilling to move, the imperial court would not force them. After three months, the demolition of Xianyang began directly, and those who were unwilling to move out would no longer be compensated.
Seeing the smiles on the faces of those people when they moved, Gan Luo was deeply moved.
He stayed in the countryside for too long. When he came out, the whole Qin Dynasty had undergone earth-shaking changes, especially Xianyang, which seemed like a completely different place, making him, a country boy, feel a little out of place.
"In the suburbs, I know Mr. Gan likes quietness, so I reserved a quiet yard for him." Zhao Qingrui talked about giving a house to Gan Luo.
Based on Gan Luo's contributions to the Qin Dynasty, he deserves this house.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness, for giving me a place to stay when I come to Xianyang." Gan Luo did not act pretentiously and accepted the house directly.
"It's a small matter. Let's go back to the palace first. My elder brother has been in charge of government affairs for more than half a month and has complained to me several times. We will hold a banquet tomorrow to welcome you back." Zhao Qingrui said gently.
"Don't refuse. There are some new faces in the court. You should let them know you so that there won't be any fools." Seeing that Gan Luo was about to refuse, Wang Jian said hurriedly.
"Well then, I'd rather obey your command." Gan Luo thought so too. After hearing Wei Xi say that there were many young talents in the court, he really wanted to take a look.
