This time, the First Emperor won a great victory in his conquest of the Huns. At the court meeting, various post-war arrangements were still being discussed, especially the issue of the deployment of officials, which led to huge disagreements within the court.
The area is vast and sparsely populated, making it difficult to govern. It is impossible to force the Huns to change their habits, nor is it possible to relocate them to the Central Plains. The grasslands still need to raise cattle, horses and sheep for the Qin Dynasty, and this cannot be left alone.
Although the grassland is not conducive to governance, the Qin Dynasty cannot ignore it.
Listening to the arguments among the people below, Zhao Qingrui felt a headache.
We are now planning which people to send over to govern these places and how to govern them. One-third of the people need to be sent over, which is not a small number.
Those places are so barren, who would want to run here?
In order to avoid being chosen, the court was in a turmoil like a vegetable market. Zhao Qingrui sat at the top and watched calmly.
It was not only the low-ranking officials who were named and sent to places like the Xiongnu, but also some high-ranking officials in the court would be transferred.
Anyone with eyes can see that it is more advantageous to develop in the court or in the Xiongnu area, and no one is willing to go.
These things are still going on, and Zhao Qingrui has no intention of stopping them for the time being.
"Everyone, the list will be finalized within three days. Those who are willing to develop on the grassland will have their salaries doubled and receive preferential treatment. In the future, promotions will be selected from among these people first." Zhao Qingrui said calmly.
Zhao Qingrui's words made the people in the court silent for a few seconds, but still no one took the initiative to stand up.
The priority promotion is of some use. People are not short of money now, and they have enough food and drink. There is no need to suffer on the grassland.
Seeing that no one moved, Zhao Qingrui felt a little disappointed.
She has high hopes for most of these people in the court.
At present, only Wang Xian is sure to go, and the others are just pretending to be idle.
The order has been given, and Li Si and Feng Quji can handle the rest.
"Also, my father has seized a large amount of supplies and needs people to take over. The border also needs a lot of food, so we need to send some over as well." Zhao Qingrui arranged these things bit by bit.
When they arrived at Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Qingrui was flipping through the memorials, and Wang Xian followed Zhao Qingrui obediently.
"Is there any place you want to go? I'll choose a more prosperous place for you." Zhao Qingrui looked at Wang Xian sideways.
"No need, Your Highness. Let Prime Minister Li and the others make the arrangements." Wang Xian chuckled.
"Aren't you afraid that they will assign you to the most remote place?" Zhao Qingrui put down the memorial in his hand and supported his face.
"Don't be afraid, it's the same wherever you are." Wang Xian shook his head honestly.
"Let's go to the grassland. The grassland is suitable for the growth of cattle and sheep. Daqin needs a lot of wool. When the time comes, you can set up a woolen yarn factory there and sell the wool to the Central Plains to make money. It can also provide more ways for the indigenous people of the grassland to make money and slowly assimilate them." Zhao Qingrui said seriously, holding his cheek.
"Okay, I'll listen to your Highness." After thinking about it, Wang Xian felt that this was a good idea.
If she could feed the people of the grassland and provide them with more income, their resistance to the Qin would surely decrease until they were assimilated into the Qin people.
"In addition to the woolen yarn factory, we can have people raise more cattle and open a factory specializing in making beef jerky. This stuff is easy to preserve, tastes good, and is expensive. We should be able to make a lot of money." Zhao Qingrui continued to give Wang Xian advice.
After all, she is his own person, so Zhao Qingrui still wants to let her relax a little.
"Your Highness, rest assured. I will not let you down." The beef jerky is indeed good. If I sell it, there will surely be many people who like it.
Of course, the prerequisite is that there must be a lot of cows, so the Qin Dynasty does not have to worry about oxen for farming.
Fortunately, there are many agricultural tools now, and even tools made of iron, so the demand for oxen is smaller.
She has to raise cattle. I really hope there are more cattle. Then she can lift the law prohibiting eating beef.
As the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, it was not easy for her to eat some beef and she could only eat it occasionally.
If she eats too much, the ministers in the court will definitely not let her go.
Thinking of these messy things, Zhao Qingrui decided to encourage breeding more. After all, people basically have enough food and drink now, the survival crisis has been temporarily resolved, and they can pursue more.
We can raise more chickens and ducks. The dishes on the table are still too monotonous.
Zhao Qingrui did it as soon as he thought of it. He called Xie Peiyun over and asked him to promote the benefits of raising chickens and ducks, and the nutritional value of chicken and duck eggs in the official newspaper.
While the court was busy, Emperor Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng also packed up his things and returned with his things.
After such a great victory, Ying Zheng returned to Xianyang with great fanfare, hoping to make his achievements known to more people.
Zhao Qingrui didn't know what his father was planning. It was still raining outside. Although it was not heavy rain, such rainy days still caused great inconvenience to travel.
The personnel to be dispatched to these places like the Xiongnu were quickly determined, and Zhao Qingrui also received a list of people who volunteered to go there.
Looking at the names on the list, Zhao Qingrui fell into deep thought. More than half of these people were women.
She carefully put the list away and encouraged them to work hard and make progress. This was a good thing, and she was willing to provide more stages for these people.
"Dun Ruo, pay more attention to the tribes on the grassland to prevent any trouble." Zhao Qingrui said calmly.
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will definitely send someone over." Dun Ruo said seriously.
