Chapter 52 Congratulations

, you have become Bu Geng!

Author: March

, you have become Bu Geng!

"Being promoted to the third level?"

Zhao Si stared blankly at Meng Yi in front of him, looking a little surprised. He jumped three times in a row, right?

Speaking of which, what are the 20th-level titles in the Qin Dynasty... It's not that Zhao Si is not down-to-earth, but after going to sea, how can a child of the same age know this?

After Xu Fu settled in Fusang, he did not adopt the Qin Dynasty's title system. After returning, Zhao Si was trapped in the Lantian Camp and had no place to learn and understand. Although he asked Wang Li, Wang Li also said that he was at level 20.

Zhao Si had to recite the name of Jue for a while, but he really couldn't recite it.

"Congratulations, Zhao Bugeng!"

Meng Yi not only brought "Xianxue" and "Five Worms" sent by the First Emperor, but also brought Zhao Si a crown with no new title.

The headdresses worn by all levels of nobility in the Qin Dynasty were not the same. Each level was strictly differentiated. The Qin law strictly stipulated that it was a crime for a person with a low title to wear a headdress with a high title. It was somewhat equivalent to an identity mark. At a glance, that is,

It can be seen that the status is high or low. Strictly speaking, when a person with a lower rank meets a person with a higher rank, he needs to avoid and bow.

In fact, Lantian Camp also has headdresses for various levels of nobility. After all, it is a military camp, and it is a place where merit is discussed. It is impossible not to have identification marks. Meng Yi brought it specially, so it can be regarded as a convenience.

Zhao Si looked at the crown given by Meng Yi and didn't know how to wear it for a while.

When they disembarked from the ship, everyone was promoted to one rank, and Zhao Si was promoted to a knight. However, the headdress was just a brown turban or a piece of rag, and the hair was wrapped up, which was simple and trouble-free.

What Meng Yi brought now was a trapezoidal plate crown. Zhao Si had never used this thing before.

Fortunately, Wang Li on the side was quite excited. He happily took the crown and said, "I'll help you put it on!"

Zhao Si was taller, so he lowered his head and let Wang Li do what he wanted. After a while, the crown was already put on. Zhao Si couldn't see it, so he felt that there was an extra thing on his head, which was not as refreshing as the bandana.

Wang Li, on the other hand, took two steps back after putting it on and looked Zhao Si up and down.

"Tsk! Congratulations, Zhao Bugeng!"

In this era, there were many ways to address a person, such as adding a surname to an official position, or adding a surname to a title.

The recording techniques include adding a name to the place of birth, adding a given name to the surname, adding a given name to the family name, adding a name to the place of residence, and adding a name to the place of employment.

However, Zhao Bugeng's name was more like a joke between Meng Yi and Wang Li, but Zhao Si also sincerely felt Wang Li's excitement.

Jue plus level three!

"How?" Zhao Si raised his head and asked with a smile.

"What will be the benefits if I don't renew my title?"

"The annual salary you can enjoy is 200 dan, and you can get four houses and four fields. You can avoid the shift of soldiers." Meng Yi answered Zhao Si with a smile.

"Two hundred stones..." Zhao Si himself did the math for a long time but couldn't figure out why.

I am used to using modern weights, measures and counting methods, but I suddenly heard that these things are somewhat unintuitive. If you want to convert, you have to do some calculations on the ground.

What Zhao Si didn't know was that it was quite difficult to get the real benefits of the title in Da Qin. Good land and fertile land were almost distributed within Guanzhong. If you want to get the real benefits, you have to go to areas outside Guanzhong.

Of course, the imperial court provided subsidies for those noble men who were willing to go to the six countries outside Guanzhong.

The farther you go, the more land and benefits you will be given.

There are four hectares of farmland in Guanzhong, and five hectares of farmland outside the old Qin area. If you are willing to go to a place like Lingnan that is still under development, it is not impossible to pay double digits, and you will even be given slaves. There will be some improvements in taxes.

If it is reduced, grassroots staff will also be given priority in hiring.

However, Zhao Si was appointed by the First Emperor to be promoted to the third level, so his title benefits can definitely be guaranteed.

The house, land, and annual salary are not only not small, but the quality is also of the highest quality.

This thing has a lot of room for manipulation. No matter how good the Qin Dynasty's official administration was, it could not solve the inherent problems of feudal society.

It can only be said that the Qin Dynasty can continue to develop under the current circumstances, and can barely maintain it, and the shortfall is barely acceptable. It is already second to none among the feudal dynasties.

"In addition, these "Xianxue" and "Five Worms" are all gifts from His Majesty. You must study hard. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me." Meng Yi said as he handed the packed brocade box to Zhao Si.

Zhao Si had no idea what "Xian Xue" was and "Five Worms" was. He could only tell that it was a book from Meng Yi's mouth. He had no idea what kind of book it was or who wrote it.

Regarding Han Fei, Zhao Si only knew about "Han Feizi" and knew very little about the rest.

I wanted to open it to see whose work it was. It was worthy of being rewarded by the First Emperor himself, but it was in a box. It would be a bit rude to open it now. However, if the First Emperor could reward it in person, it must be a famous work. Otherwise, it is also very practical.

Regardless of whether he had heard of it or not, whether the person who wrote it was famous or not, Zhao Si made up his mind to go back and study it carefully.

His foundation in this era is too shallow.

Even when I first returned to Da Qin, I didn't even know a few characters.

To put it bluntly, in the current Da Qin, Zhao Si is not even qualified to speak out.

He didn't understand any of the mainstream ideas, and his understanding of the Qin Dynasty was minimal. He couldn't talk about any politics.

Although Zhao Si didn't understand, he knew how to face his own shortcomings and had a desire to learn. Recently, while eating, drinking and having fun with Wang Li, Zhao Si did not forget to study. At least Meng Yi and Wang Li were prostitutes for free.

Teacher, let Zhao Si know about common common words now, so that he won't be blind.

After sending the things away, Meng Yi had no intention of leaving, but looked at Zhao Si and continued to speak.

"Show me the curved shaft plow you made. Let's not look at the big plow. Do you have any of the small plows you made before?" Meng Yi asked.

"Did you keep it?" Zhao Si poked Wang Li. Zhao Si was not a military quartermaster. The things obtained from the military camp were military assets. Who knows where to store them?

"Keep it!" Wang Li nodded, "I'll send someone to the military craftsman's place to get it."

The Xiaoqu Yuanli was not stored in the treasury. It was not a big thing. It was left with the military craftsman for research reference.

"No need, let's go together."

"I remember there are some small things, let's take a look together." Meng Yi was talking about some practical gadgets that Wang Jian mentioned under the leadership of Zhao Si.

Vernier calipers, chisels, files, pliers, all these messy things.

As a painter, Meng Yi has a natural curiosity about these gadgets.

In the novels Zhao Si read in his previous life, there were many mentions of Qin's unique military production technology and system.

"It is said that the Qin Dynasty already had a working system of division of labor and cooperation and the prototype of mass production on the assembly line. I don't know whether it is true or not." Zhao Si thought secretly in his heart, full of expectations.
