Chapter 103 Sand Dunes? This is not a fun place to walk!

The two days of rest went by in a flash...

Zhao Si has been busy farming for the past two days, and the rest of the food is okay. The rice has to be brought from paddy fields, which is a waste of old nose strength. Zhao Si can be regarded as doing it himself. Wang Lichun followed him for two days and was too tired to hunt.

Of course, fifteen hectares of farmland cannot be completed in a short time. Zhao Si only completed a small part of it, and most of it was done by servants and slaves. Zhao Si's next task is to inspect the cultivated land at regular times and at fixed points every day to ensure that the crops continue to receive

The influence of one’s own raw jade aura.

When this batch of grain is produced, it can be used as seeds to be distributed throughout the world. He slowly cultivates the land in Guanzhong. Within a few years, it will be able to completely replace the previous seeds, ushering in earth-shaking changes in Daqin's agriculture.

In addition, Zhao Si also planted some sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, hoping to see if the sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn that had mutated once could undergo a second evolution under the influence of the raw jade halo.

"Master...it's time to get up!"

Zhao Si got up in a daze at the gentle call of the maid, made do with breakfast in a daze, and went straight to the doctor's office.

Today is still a day when the First Emperor does not call his name, and Zhao Si is not scheduled to be on duty at the imperial palace, so Zhao Si is working under the command of the doctor.

Entering the work site, I saw a large number of maps hanging inside the house, and a bunch of officials were gesticulating in front of the maps. The maps in various places were full of handwriting marks.

On the shelf, there are a large number of bamboo slips and books...

Some lieutenants are busy, while others are dozing off and fishing.

"Here is Minister Zhao?" Zhao Si was still looking for his position when a middle-aged man who was a head and a half shorter than Zhao Si, thin and slightly dark-skinned came to Zhao Si.

"Please come in!"

"May I ask, which doctor are you?" Zhao Si saw the other party's clothes and knew that the other party was a doctor, one level higher than himself.

"My name is Cheng Miao, and my courtesy name is Yuan Cen. Minister Zhao can just call me Yuan Cen." Cheng Miao pulled Zhao Si inside and began to introduce his colleagues to Zhao Si one by one.

Because Zhao Si was called by the First Emperor two days before going to work, he did not meet his colleagues. Now it was the first day he came to work. Zhao Si looked around and saw that the room was full of lieutenants, but there were only a few among them. Cheng Miao obviously had a high status.

.

"This is Sima Xin... after General Sima Cuo."

"This is Wang Qian..."

"This is Hengtong..."

"This is Meng Wuzhao..."

"This is Su Jiao..."

"This is Seulji..."

"This is Bai Qiang..."

"This is Gan Ya..."

Cheng Miao introduced his colleagues to Zhao Si one by one, and mentioned some famous deeds by the way, either political achievements or family background. In short, everyone's face was taken care of.

When Zhao Si heard this, he thought...he was either a descendant of a nobleman, or he had already governed a county before becoming a Langguan.

At present, Langguan can be roughly divided into two groups. One is the talented people with prominent family backgrounds and excellent qualities who were put into Langguan training by the First Emperor.

One is those who started from the frontier army of counties and counties, performed well, and were ready to be promoted by the First Emperor, and were placed in the rank of Lang Guan to transition to Marquis Guan.

Generally speaking, these two are nobles, but one is prominent, and the other is in decline, but with his outstanding ability, he can climb back up and restore his family's glory.

Take Wang Qian for example, his grandfather is Wang Wan, the current Right Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty.

Sima Xin, my ancestor is Sima Cuo.

Needless to say, Meng Wuzhao, Bai Qiang, and Xiyi Zhi are descendants of the Bai Lao clan in Meng Xi. Although the old clan's vitality was severely damaged after Shang Yang's reform, they are still centipede insects, dead but not stiff.

Gan Ya, the descendant of Qianlong, the old prime minister who opposed Shang Yang and directly led to Shang Yang's death.

The dozen or so officials represented by these people are all representatives of prominent family backgrounds and born wealth.

Hengtong is also somewhat related to the Qin general Huanjue (yi), but the relationship is relatively distant. He once governed a county, and because of his outstanding performance, he was promoted to Langguan.

Su Jiao was also a descendant of a noble family, but he had no reliable relatives. He was from Longxi. Because of his outstanding performance in expelling the Huns and fighting for the Hetao, he was close to Meng Tian and was recommended to the First Emperor.

The two people represented were from a relatively poor family, with a relatively small number of people, seven or eight in total.

During the introduction process, Zhao Si saluted one by one. Some responded enthusiastically, some were indifferent, and some were lukewarm.

"As for Minister Zhao, I don't need to introduce you too much. Xu Fu disobeyed the king's order and stayed in Fusang. Minister Zhao seized the ship and went to sea. He lived up to the king's order and returned the handsome ship to Qin, bringing back three auspicious things!" Cheng Miao smiled at him!

Zhao Si bowed and everyone in the room bowed back to Zhao Si.

Next, Cheng Miao enthusiastically arranged for Zhao Si to take a seat, and then said: "The doctor's affairs are complicated at the moment. What we are responsible for is the itinerary of His Majesty's grand tour of the world. You have just returned to Qin from the sea, and you are still young when you go to sea."

"Young man, I think I don't know the landforms of the Qin Dynasty, so there is no need to rush, there are maps and geographical records here, Zhao Shilang can take a look first."

"You want to patrol the world?" Zhao Si was stunned for a moment and said. If I remember correctly, wasn't the First Emperor on the patrol when he returned from the sea?

"Last time, His Majesty was unwell and did not complete the walk. He had originally planned to complete the walk again next year. Now that three new grains have been produced, it is imperative to promote the new grains in various places... I am afraid that he must walk next year." Cheng Miao said.

.

With the character and habits of the First Emperor, he would patrol the world when doing important things.

Cars on the same track, books on the same text, travels on the same road, unified weights and measures, and unified currency. When everything was implemented, the First Emperor had to patrol the world. At the moment when new grains are being promoted, it would be impossible without a trip, let alone

Because Zhao Si returned unexpectedly last time, the First Emperor returned early and the world tour was not completed.

Now the unification of the currency has reached a critical moment, and new grains have to be promoted. According to the habits of the First Emperor, he will inevitably set out to patrol the world next year to suppress the eight famines and ensure that the policy can be rolled out.

Zhao Si nodded to express understanding and then said: "Mr. Cheng has introduced his colleagues, but he has not introduced himself yet..."

Zhao Si finally understood that the current Lang Guan subordinate to Lang Zhongling was either a direct descendant of a big noble or had outstanding local political achievements.

Cheng Miao was able to become a doctor, presumably because he was either a direct descendant of a great nobleman or had outstanding political achievements. Cheng Miao is now a doctor. If he were released, the county governor would not be able to escape.

Cheng Miao smiled, but before he could speak, Hengtong enthusiastically came over to help Zhao Si clear up his doubts.

"Brother Yuan Cen was the warden of Xiagui in the past, but he was imprisoned in Yunyang Prison for a mistake. Your Majesty unified the writing system, and the Prime Minister Zuo changed the big seal script to the small seal script. Brother Yuan Cen was good at writing the big seal script. In prison, he changed the small seal script and made it into a book, which was presented to your majesty.

, His Majesty gave permission to write and use it among the official script, and the effect was good. Brother Yuan Cen was released from prison. Nowadays, most of the writing is official script, not small seal script."

Zhao Si was in awe after hearing this!

Well! This one is even more heavyweight!

Li Si changed the large seal script to small seal script, and Cheng Miao changed the small seal script to official script.

In fact, the difference between Qin Lishu and Qin Xiaozhuan is not very big, but it is relatively simplified. Zhao Si did not know that there was such a thing when he was learning it. He only thought that he was learning Xiaozhuan, but he did not know that he was learning Cheng Miao.

Official script created.

Official script!

Qin seal script and Han official script, but everyone knows that the official script was also created by Qin officials!

"I haven't been able to read for a long time, but I don't know the story, let alone that the characters I learned were created by Dr. Cheng. I'm disrespectful!" Zhao Si handed over his hand.

No wonder Cheng Miao could become a doctor, no wonder Cheng Miao could become the leader of this group of poor nobles who originated from the state.

Cheng Miao's achievements were much greater than those of the others, and he was pardoned and released from prison by the First Emperor, and received double praise from the Prime Minister of the Left, Li Si, and the First Emperor.

He was a county official and was politically correct.

After being imprisoned, Long Chang became enlightened, changed Xiaozhuan to official script, and the buff almost stacked up with soul rings.

This kind of person, as long as nothing unexpected happens, will surely be the Jiuqing in the future, and the three princes may compete with him.

This is no wonder why Cheng Miao is so enthusiastic about him. Although Zhao Si said that he was a little lucky because of the treasure, Zhao Si returned from seizing the ship, lived up to the king's orders, was politically correct, and was from a low-level background.

But it can’t be said to be a clique. In fact, the two groups can’t urinate in the same pot. There is no tense situation on weekdays, and there is not much intrigue at work. After all, the emperor above is the First Emperor, and the heads of all the officials are above them.

Qing Mengyi, there is no difference between closeness and distance. If you want to fight passionately, I am afraid that you will die too early.

Lang Zhongling is equivalent to the Whampoa Military Academy in Da Qin. How could a place like this not make some political friends?

This is originally a place for training and the help of improving connections. It is understandable that Cheng Miao, Hengtong, Su Jiao and others are so enthusiastic.

Zhao Si is not disgusted either. How can there be politics without cliques? As long as the distinction between public and private is clear, and objectively speaking, it is easier for them, who are from humble backgrounds, to reach a consensus on their political stance. After all, everyone is not like that

The old nobles live a magnanimous life.

Factions are inevitable wherever he goes, and Zhao Si doesn't care, let alone put a cold face on a hot butt. After greeting Cheng Miao and others, all the officials became busy again.

Only Zhao Si really didn't know the topography of the Qin Dynasty and the situation in various places, so he couldn't help much. He could only supplement his knowledge by looking at the maps and local records.

Colleagues, on the other hand, had a heated discussion about the itinerary of the First Emperor's grand tour of the world.

"Kuiji... Kuaiji must leave... This is Chu land. The nobles of Chu land have always been restless, so we must pay attention to precautions here..."

"Pei County... Peixian County must also pass, this is the gateway to the three places..."

The discussion was very intense, with every itinerary and every location, down to the details of how long we should stay at each place, there were also quarrels from time to time.

Not only the local conditions must be considered, but also the physical condition of the First Emperor must be taken into consideration. This is not a modern day. Patrolling the world is a physical job, and the fatigue of traveling and riding is no joke.

Secondly, we must also consider the armament situation, etc...
