It's just to increase the workload for local grassroots officials. I believe they can understand that she is doing this for the sake of Daqin.
"Yes, I'll take my leave." The task was heavy, and the subsequent matters were not his responsibility.
"An earthquake occurred in Longxi County, and merchants were found illegally mining iron ore in Shu County. I called you all here today because of this matter." Zhao Qingrui showed the two memorials to several people.
A few people picked it up and took a look, and they had an idea.
"Your Majesty, please send someone to Longxi County immediately to verify the earthquake damage." Li Si said immediately.
"I'm thinking about who to send. Do you have any good suggestions?" Zhao Qingrui looked at several people.
"Your Majesty, I think Lord Yao Jia is a good candidate." Feng Quji recommended Yao Jia.
"That's not appropriate. Lord Yao is in charge of the Dali Temple and is not good at disaster relief. I think Xiao He is a good choice." Li Si recommended Xiao He.
He has been observing this young man for a long time. He is indeed a talent chosen by His Majesty. He is excellent in all aspects. Such a talent who can assist the king is rare in the world.
"I also think that Lord Xiao He is suitable. Lord Xiao used to be the prefect of Longxi County and is familiar with the area." Shusun Tong also suggested.
Zhao Qingrui saw that no one else had any objection. Zhao Qingrui was naturally very clear about Xiao He's abilities, so it was okay to let Xiao He be the imperial envoy.
After Xiao He returned to Xianyang, he paid great attention to the government affairs and worked very hard. Zhao Qingrui was very satisfied with him.
"In that case, I will issue an order tomorrow, appointing Xiao He as the imperial envoy, and set off for Longxi County today. I will let Cao Shen accompany him then." Zhao Qingrui also added Cao Shen, who was currently doing a good job in the Dali Temple.
There is also no problem with Cao Shen's ability.
"Regarding the disaster relief, I hope you can draw up a charter. Also, how much compensation should be given to those people who died in the earthquake? Those whose houses collapsed should also be compensated a little..." Zhao Qingrui looked at several people and assigned them tasks.
"Your Majesty, rest assured. We will draft the regulations as soon as possible." Several people said respectfully. This matter was very urgent.
"Also, let someone carefully understand the disaster relief arrangements and capabilities of the officials in Longxi County. I am just preparing to test their capabilities for this earthquake." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.
"I understand." Feng Quji said seriously. Since His Majesty regarded this disaster as an assessment, when the review was conducted at the end of the year, those who performed well would be promoted. Those who performed poorly might be demoted from that position and replaced by more capable people.
Your Majesty values officials who get things done. The atmosphere in the court is actually very good now, and Feng Quji is sincerely happy about the current situation.
"Now let's talk about the iron mine. The merchants dared to get involved. Even according to the Shu County Magistrate, this iron mine seems to have been mined for some time. I'm afraid someone is colluding with those merchants." Zhao Qingrui said with a cold face.
"Your Majesty, please let me go. I will bring the whole incident and all the officials involved to justice." Feng Jie stepped forward.
"Okay. Thank you, Feng Qing, for making the trip." Zhao Qingrui nodded and still trusted Feng Jie.
Zhao Qingrui knew very well that the Feng brothers had contributed so much to the Qin Dynasty.
After appointing Feng Jie, they discussed the subsequent matters after the iron mine was in the hands of the court.
After the discussion, it was already very late. Zhao Qingrui was very tired as there were too many things to do in the court.
When I returned to Xianyang Palace, I felt a little dazed and my steps were a little unsteady.
Lying on the edge of the bathtub, Zhao Qingrui closed his eyes and went over the memorial in his mind to see if there was anything else he needed to add.
Too much centralization is not a good thing. You have to make all the decisions yourself, which is a headache.
On the second day, Zhao Qingrui appointed Xiao He and Cao Shen as imperial envoys to go to Longxi County to be responsible for disaster relief, and also asked Feng Jie to go to Shu County.
Now, thanks to the infrastructure of the Qin Dynasty, Shu County is completely connected to the outside world and is no longer as difficult to travel as before.
After the road was opened, more merchants went to Shu County.
In the past, the population of Shu County was very small. It can be said that the land was vast and sparsely populated. There were many mountainous areas and the roads were rugged.
The population has increased a lot in recent years, but the area is still vast and sparsely populated. The discovery of iron ore in Shu County and its long-term mining are also partly due to the terrain.
After mining for so long, Zhao Qingrui didn't know how much they had mined.
If it can be used to make weapons, how many can be made? Zhao Qingrui attaches great importance to this matter.
I don't know if there is anyone behind this merchant. If there is, is it the remnants of the Six Kingdoms? Or is it a native from the grasslands or Lingnan?
The Qin Empire is not stable now, and there are still many hidden dangers within the empire. She dare not be careless at all.
Zhao Qingrui knew all of this. If one wanted to resolve these conflicts, many of them could not be solved by this generation at all. It would take time, several generations.
Zhao Qingrui was not in a hurry about this matter, but if anyone dared to cause trouble when she was in power, she would not show any mercy.
Over the years, she has also cleaned out some people who were hiding deep and liked to stir up trouble, and has deterred them several times.
When the imperial envoy set off, Zhao Qingrui still had detailed information about these places.
On the other hand, as Zhao Qingrui assigned the tasks, the entire Dibao Office became even busier, busy looking for various information, looking for people with relevant experience, and summarizing disaster relief methods.
Soon, all the people knew about Zhao Qingrui's orders.
Looking at the common people who were moved to tears, the remnants of the six kingdoms were gritting their teeth in hatred behind their backs.
