"What do you want to do?" Ying Zheng asked curiously. Except for a few outstanding sons like Fusu, he did not pay much attention to his other sons. There were still many things waiting for him in the court.
"Let's send them all to the grassroots to gain some experience." Zhao Qingrui put down the pen in her hand. This was a sudden idea she came up with.
These brothers and sisters are all her helpers. How can she do it without sufficient abilities?
"Send them to various places to serve as county lieutenants. This position will allow them to come into contact with the people and gain a lot of experience." Zhao Qingrui said lightly, asking them to be more careful.
"That's fine. There won't be much for them to do in Xianyang, and I can't control them forever." Ying Zheng thought for a moment and agreed to this matter.
After the father and daughter had discussed it, Ying Zheng called all the remaining sons to his side the next day and announced his decision.
As for what they have in their hearts, they have to endure it.
Zhao Qingrui went to check out the official newspaper. They had already started laying the foundation. Once the red bricks were fired, they could start construction.
"The brick kiln is almost completed and will be ready for firing in a few days. Don't worry, little sister." Yin Man said with a smile.
"Well, I have nothing to worry about with their work." Zhao Qingrui nodded. The people she brought here were all carefully selected talents. If they didn't have the ability, she wouldn't bring them here.
"Look, this new newspaper, what do you think? If it's okay, I'll have people start printing it." Yin Man put the newspaper in front of Zhao Qingrui.
Zhao Qingrui took a careful look and found no problem. Yin Man was becoming more and more careful in her work. Zhao Qingrui was very satisfied and planned to train Yin Man to be able to stand on her own two feet. She couldn't just keep focusing on the newspaper all the time. She still had a lot of things to do.
"Your Highness, Mr. Zhao is here." When the two sisters were talking about the newspaper, Chunxi came over to report.
"Let him in." Zhao Qingrui's face twisted for a moment. What could Zhao Gao come for? It must be that her father wanted her to go over and revise those memorials again.
"Greetings to Princess Qingrui and Princess Yinman." After Zhao Gao came in, he hurriedly saluted the two of them. Zhao Qingrui's current status was high enough, so naturally Zhao Qingrui's name was put first.
"What did the emperor ask you to come here for?" Zhao Qingrui put down the newspaper in her hand. She didn't really want to review those memorials. Apart from the corvée issue, there were a lot of trivial matters that gave her a headache just looking at them.
"Your Majesty asked you to go to Zhangtai Palace to discuss matters. Prince Fusu's entourage has also returned from Langya County. By the way, you are asked to review the memorials." Zhao Gao said with a flattering smile.
"My eldest brother's people are back. Sister, you take care of things here. I'll go to Zhangtai Palace." Zhao Qingrui stood up and said excitedly.
Fusu did not come back, so the task must have been accomplished. Next, let’s talk about the refined salt.
The emergence of these refined salts will definitely have a huge impact on the current salt market.
Seeing Zhao Qingrui hurriedly taking Zhao Gao away, Yin Man smiled helplessly. The newspaper girl thought there was no problem, so she just released it.
She and Meng Yu have reviewed these articles several times and there will be no problems.
However, after Zhao Qingrui nodded, she felt more at ease.
When they arrived at Zhangtai Palace, there were two large cloth bags placed in the palace. Inside the bags were fine white salt. Ying Zheng grabbed a handful and looked at it carefully with an excited expression.
"Qingrui, you are here, come and take a look." Seeing Zhao Qingrui coming, Ying Zheng hurriedly waved to Zhao Qingrui. With these white salt, the Qin treasury will definitely be more abundant.
Zhao Qingrui nodded, walked to his father's side, picked up a little and put it in his mouth to taste it. There was no bitterness at all.
Gently grab a little bit, each grain is crystal clear and pleasing to the eye.
"How is it? Is it the same as what you eat there?" Ying Zheng asked excitedly. He was very satisfied with the refined salt.
"Yes, exactly the same, but too little was sent back this time." Zhao Qingrui nodded seriously.
"Tell me what's going on over there?" Ying Zheng looked at the attendant, who was the guard beside Fusu.
The guard did not dare to hide anything and told Fusu everything that happened after he arrived in Langya County.
The corners of Zhao Qingrui's mouth twitched. She had already sent people over, but her brother was still so cautious. Was it necessary?
Ying Zheng was also speechless. What a useless guy, he was so timid even when given the opportunity.
"Qingrui, what are you going to do?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui, ready to leave all these matters to Zhao Qingrui.
His health has recovered now, so much so that he wants to expand outward. Once the internal situation in the court is stabilized, he wants to lead the army in person.
"Tell my eldest brother to take control of the seaside, build workshops to produce salt, and set up a separate salt bureau. This department will be independent from each county and will be managed by my eldest brother." Zhao Qingrui had already made plans for this matter.
"Also, when building the workshop, each county should reserve several suitable locations for the construction of docks. The reserved locations should occupy about four or five miles in front and behind."
The attendant looked at His Majesty, and when he saw His Majesty nod, he quickly agreed.
"The Zhao family orders you to draft the imperial edict." Zhao Qingrui looked at Zhao Gao.
"I obey your command." Zhao Gao bowed.
These refined salts are all good things. He also heard what the attendant said. If such refined salts can be produced in large quantities, the situation in the Qin Dynasty will soon change.
After the seal was written, Zhao Qingrui played with the jade seal in his hand. This was not the legendary imperial seal.
The imperial seal would not be put on tour until the end of this year. When it reached Pingshu Road in Huayin, someone holding the seal stood in the road and said to the emperor's attendants, "Please return this seal to Zulong (a nickname for Qin Shihuang)." After he finished speaking, he disappeared, and the imperial seal returned to Qin.
Eight years ago, when the First Emperor was on his southern tour and reached Dongting Lake, a sudden storm arose and the boat he was on was about to sink.
The First Emperor threw the imperial seal into the lake and offered sacrifices to the gods to calm the waves, only then was he able to cross the lake safely.
This imperial seal was specially used for stamping in the court. When she went on tour with her father, she would definitely want to see what the legendary imperial seal looked like.
"Do you like this jade seal?" Ying Zheng chuckled as he watched Zhao Qingrui playing with the jade seal.
"I just thought of the legendary imperial seal." Zhao Qingrui smiled and shook his head, not thinking too much about it.
"What's so good about it? I have thrown it to the gods to suppress the waves. You can't see it even if you want to." Ying Zheng said calmly.
"Hehe, when you and I go on patrol, you will definitely see it." Zhao Qingrui smiled mysteriously.
"Can it grow legs and run back by itself?" Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows.
"That won't happen. Instead, someone will deliver it to you." Zhao Qingrui said leisurely, raising his hand to stamp the jade seal on the book.
