Liu Ji was eagerly waiting for the next move from the First Emperor.
His mind was full of fantasies about the day when he would be in power.
However, the next second, Liu Ji felt that he was hallucinating.
"What?"
He asked out loud in a panic.
The First Emperor frowned slightly in dissatisfaction: "What's wrong? You don't want to?"
Liu Ji: ....
Whatever he wants, he wants.
Why would he be asked to build roads?
Liu Ji's expression was bitter, and of course he wanted to protest.
But now he was no longer in Pei County. He was standing in the main hall of the Qin Xianyang Palace.
The door was full of guards who were watching eagerly.
If he did anything out of line, his head would probably fall off in the next second.
Although Liu Ji did not dare to protest, he still wanted to struggle.
"Your Majesty, a small matter like road repair is not of much use to me, is it?"
The First Emperor's expression turned stern, and a fierce pressure came down from the first leader.
"Building roads is the most important thing for our Great Qin. How can we talk about trivial matters? If we want to get rich, we must build roads first!"
"It's decided. Liu Ji, from now on, you will go and build the road."
Liu Ji: ...
Well, if he was solely responsible for building the road, he could accept it.
"By the way, go find Meng Tian. Meng Tian will be responsible for all road construction matters. From now on, you will be under Meng Tian's command."
Liu Ji: ....
Do you really think of him as a road construction worker?
Liu Ji didn't know how he left the main hall of Xianyang Palace.
All he knew was that when he came to his senses, he had already arrived at Meng Tian's mansion.
Liu Ji was sent away by the First Emperor, and the matter could finally be brought to the point.
The First Emperor became serious, glanced at the expressions of everyone below him, and spoke in a solemn voice.
"Everything I am about to tell you is a major secret. No one can leak it. Do you understand?"
Everyone quickly stood up and knelt.
"Your Majesty, we understand."
Seeing the First Emperor's attitude, everyone understood.
Liu Ji was probably treated as a discarded pawn and was not favored by Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have waited until he left before saying such things.
"Xiao He, come forward."
Xiao He stood up, lowered his head and took two steps forward.
The First Emperor stood up personally and handed the method of growing hybrid rice to Xiao He.
"Xiao He, you must study this thing carefully. If you figure it out, you will be a meritorious official of the Great Qin!"
Xiao He's eyes fell on the book cover, and he looked at the big words on it.
Um.
I know every word, but why don't I understand when they are put together?
However, seeing the First Emperor's attitude, he knew that the booklet in his hand must be a very important thing.
He nodded quickly and bowed: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
The First Emperor responded softly, "Well, Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, you two will also follow Xiao He to take charge of this project. When it succeeds, I will reward you greatly."
Chen Sheng and Wu Guang looked at each other and knelt down again.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After the three men left, the First Emperor looked at the remaining people below, and his eyes fell on Xiahou Ying.
He pinched his eyebrows and spoke helplessly.
"Xiahou Ying, I have two tasks for you. One is for you to lead the Mo family to research steam cars, and the other is for you to train a group of people who can drive. Can you do this?"
Xiahou Ying laughed heartily, "Hehe, Your Majesty, I can do it."
Che, from now on, can he fight with Che every day?
"Okay, you go first."
The First Emperor waved his hand and asked the eunuch to give the design drawings of the steam car to Xiahou Ying.
Xiahou Ying turned around and left happily.
Looking at Xiahou Ying's back, the First Emperor's eyes were deep.
Once the vehicles and roads are repaired, private cars and public transportation in the future may be arranged.
The First Emperor assigned tasks to the rest of the people one after another.
After these people received their tasks and left.
Only Fan Kuai and Lu Zhi were left in the hall.
The First Emperor held his chin and rubbed it with his fingers.
His sharp eyes carefully examined the remaining three people.
Seeing this, Lu Zhi, her sister, and brother-in-law all became nervous.
When the three of them's hearts were about to jump out, Ying Zheng smiled gently.
"Heh, the mission you three are on is currently the most important to me. Do you dare to take it on?"
Lu Zhi was the first to calm her heartbeat, and when she heard this, her eyes flashed with ambition.
The most important task?
Answer it, you must answer it.
She'll take it no matter what!
Just take on the task and complete it.
Maybe one day she will be able to truly take control of her own life!
Lu Zhi's voice was decisive and loud, and her determined gaze met Qin Shi Huang's eyes.
There was ambition in his eyes that he was not prepared to conceal.
"Your Majesty, I am willing!"
The First Emperor laughed heartily.
This girl!
She is truly an extraordinary woman who has left her mark in history just like my great-grandmother!
"Okay, okay, what about you two?"
He smiled and looked at the remaining Fan Kuai and Lu Shi.
The couple looked at each other, their eyes filled with the same look.
They are willing too!
"Your Majesty, I am willing!"
“Okay, okay!”
The First Emperor smiled happily.
Then, his smile gradually faded, he looked at the sky outside the hall, and spoke lightly.
"It has always been the case that among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are the lowest class. I have always believed this."
"But since I received the guidance of the immortal, I have finally understood that only with a large amount of money can we better develop Daqin."
"So I want you three to go into business, do you understand?"
