The strategy of water control in Qinchuan has been discussed since the Shang Dynasty's reform a hundred years ago. However, no one has been able to succeed. Now, Wen Xinhou Lu Buwei actually said that this can be done. Isn't it strange for the Qin king's government?
Walking in the hall of the wooden building, his steps were gentle. After a few breaths, he looked at Cai Ze, the Gangcheng Lord beside Lu Buwei. Cai Ze also wanted to control the water in Qinchuan back then, so he naturally had a say.
.
"It is God's will that the State of Zheng enters the Qin State. Combined with the current situation of the State of Qin, Qinchuan's flood control will be very successful."
As a descendant of the contemporary Ji Ran family, if we say that a rich country and strong people have a lot of ambitions, but the strategy of controlling floods does not meet the fundamentals of the Ji Ran family, therefore, even if Qin becomes rich again, it will be difficult to control Qinchuan.
A few years ago, when Zheng Guo entered Qin, he was aware of it and gave considerable support.
"What do you mean by Gangcheng-kun's words?"
If the words of Wen Xin Hou Lu Buwei are said, Qin Wangzheng does not dare to believe it lightly now, but Cai Ze, the newly crowned king, does not have too many taboos. Even he said so, is it possible that Qinchuan can really achieve great success in water control for hundreds of miles?
.
For a moment, his expression unconsciously became more hopeful. If it can really succeed, no matter how high the price is, it will be worth it. Hundreds of miles of water canals in Qinchuan have created thousands of miles of fertile soil in Guanzhong, which is the foundation of the Qin State.
It's much thicker again.
"My king doesn't know something. Over the past hundred years, Qinchuan has been unable to control the floods for three reasons. First, there are frequent wars and the people cannot gather together. Second, the treasury is not rich and the wealth cannot be divided. Third, the hydraulic engineering is amazing.
There is no need for one Li Bing to take care of both."
"When the old minister was the prime minister, everything was ready, but the only thing missing was the superior waterworks, so the art of planning to enrich the country could not be extended. Today, the Qin State has no wars and no chaos, abundant wealth, abundant people, and even more famous water in the world.
When workers come to your door, it means that the times are converging and Qinchuan will be in great control!"
Mentioning this matter, Cai Ze, the newly crowned king, looked extremely happy. He had stayed in Qin for decades and had long regarded Qin as his own country. The Qinchuan flood control was something he had long wanted to solve.
After decades of procrastination, there is finally hope. After Yuluo, he took a step forward and bowed deeply to King Qin Zheng again. If King Qin puts his mind first, Wen Xinhou can also have more time.
"All schools of thought have been enemies of Qin for a long time. Are the countries in Guandong really willing to have such an outstanding water engineer? Moreover, if the Jing River is diverted into Qinchuan, Qin's national power will be ten times greater than before."
"In today's world, the Qin State has already dominated the princes, and hundreds of miles of Qinchuan have turned into fertile soil. At that time, the countries in Guandong will have no chance. This is what Wen Xinhou, who has just become the king, should you two know?"
Decades ago, after the Qin State incorporated Bashu and Bashu into prefectures and counties, it sent Li Bing, a hydraulic engineer from the Qin State, to Shu. One served as the county guard, and the other rectified the water transportation chaos in Shu County, and brought chaos to the area.
The plains of Shu were classified as controllable lands, and since then Shu County has become the great granary of the Qin State.
Due to Dujiangyan in Shu County, Qin State has continuously launched wars with foreign countries for decades, and it provided countless supplies of food and grass. A Shu County has made Qin State strong and powerful as it is now.
If the hundreds of miles of Qinchuan in Guanzhong can be controlled, then even if the Kwantung countries start a war at the same time, Qin Wangzheng is still confident. He can think of Wen Xinhou and Gang Chengjun, and he should also think of the talented people of the Kwantung countries.
You should be able to think of it.
"Although hundreds of schools of thought despise Qin, the Shui family is just a weak family. The countries in Guandong are weak, with no one and no wealth. Therefore, Zheng Guo enters Qin to control the water and applies what he has learned. If he succeeds, the Shui family will prosper, how happy it will be.
"
"Moreover, over the past few years, everything that Zheng has done has been under the control of the old minister. When he entered Qin, he had already explored hundreds of miles of Qinchuan, and even used cloth to draw a lot of means."
"In the past few years, the war in Qin has not been obvious, and Wen Xinhou and the veterans have recruited hundreds of thousands of people into it. In a few more years, it will not be difficult for Qinchuan to succeed!"
Since ancient times, kings have been suspicious. It was unexpected that King Qin would be so suspicious not long after he was crowned the emperor. Regarding this matter, Lord Gangcheng had already realized that Wen Xinhou was not very popular with King Qin.
Immediately, he stepped forward again, bowed his hands, and said deeply, he still saw what Zheng Guo had done in Qin over the past few years, and he couldn't fake it.
"Hundreds of thousands of civilians were recruited. The Qinchuan flood control also involved the recruitment of counties and counties, the dispatch of workers to rivers and canals, food, clothing, housing and transportation, the inspection of merits and demerits, the mediation of government offices and other practical matters. It can be said that there are many clues."
"Even so, I should meet the person who is in charge of the canal affairs in person. Hundreds of miles of Qinchuan have been accomplished. I am not stingy with my official position. I feel that repairing the canal is more important than repairing books.
slow."
"If possible, it would be even better if you personally supervise this matter!"
Lord Gangcheng defended himself like this. Qin Wangzheng already had something to gain in his heart. His heart was very excited. As he breathed, his words seemed to be a little softer. As Cai Ze said, Zheng Guo can be said to be the help sent by God to Qin.
.
The conscription involving hundreds of thousands of people was not a small matter. His eyes fell on Gangchengjun and Wenxinhou beside him. Gangchengjun was old and frail, while Wenxinhou seemed to have a lot of leisure time.
"I, Wang Mingjian, am an old minister. Even if he has the will, he is powerless. Instead of letting the veteran personally supervise, it would be better to leave this opportunity to the younger generation. A few days ago, the veteran has arranged for one person to take charge of the canal affairs."
"If my king is not satisfied, you can choose another one!"
Wen Xinhou Lu Buwei's low and hoarse voice echoed, and it was mixed with strong sadness. Once upon a time, I had to worry about the neglect of Qin Wangzheng. Am I really old? Maybe I am really old.
"Do I know this person?"
Hearing this sound, Qin Wangzheng's bright eyes narrowed.
"This..., this person may not be known to the king. This person's name is Li Si. He has an old relationship with Zheng Guo. They both came from Xiaoshengxian Village in Songhai. Zheng Guo also studied there a few years ago, so the two of them
acquaintance."
"It can be a little more convenient to have an old friend by your side. After all, Zheng Guo concentrates on water control, and he doesn't care about many things."
Lu Buwei looked startled, and then slowly said that Li Si had been his client for many months, and he was very talented, and he valued him very much. The mission of the Xinzheng envoy a few months ago was to observe his ability, and the result was okay.
"Lee Si!"
"But the person who previously said something outside to postpone practicing the law?"
Qin Wangzheng was quite surprised that it was this person. Even Guigu Genie and Zhou Qing looked at each other. For Guigu Genie, since Zheng Guo had known Li Si, since then, the two of them had
We are also acquainted with Han Fei.
For Zhou Qing, Li Si entered the Qin Dynasty not long ago, but he was so highly regarded by Lu Buwei that he actually got the order of the river canal. If he succeeded, with this merit, he would be no less than killing the enemy on the battlefield, and he would be directly promoted to the position of minister, Yi Ye.
"Yes, I never thought that the king would also notice this person. This person studied under the Confucianist Xun Kuang. He is talented and knowledgeable. He is proficient in law and Confucianism. He is good at practical affairs. He leads the order of rivers and canals. He thinks that after training, he will become the king of Qin in the future.
Officer!"
Hearing the implication of King Qin's words, Wen Xinhou was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he seemed to have thought of something. According to the news from Heibingtai and Luowang, King Qin's trip to Xinzheng a few months ago was for the Korean prince Han Fei.
Among the fellow disciples of Young Master Han Fei, there was Li Si. It is believed that the King of Qin noticed this person because of this. In this way, Li Si's order on the river canals would not be a surprise.

"If hundreds of miles of Qinchuan were fertile soil, Qin's national strength would suddenly increase tenfold, and the world would be just around the corner. I visited the academy today and got such news."
"In the academy, Marquis Wenxin and Lord Gangcheng particularly admire Zheng Guo. What does Mr. Gai Nie think of him?"
Recruiting hundreds of thousands of people involves various matters. If it can really succeed, all the costs will be worth it. I am afraid that a lot of manpower and material resources will be wasted, but in the end nothing will be gained.
Previously, in the academy, due to the rules, I didn't ask. Now that I'm out of the Wenxin Academy, there are experts beside me. I should confirm it again. Only in this way can I feel at peace.
"The sky and the earth were divided, vertical and horizontal. When Gai Nie came down from the mountain, he entered the Qin State. He had heard of a man from the Zheng State. He was from South Korea. After Chun Shenjun and other countries conquered the Qin State, South Korea was afraid of the Qin State and sent outstanding hydraulic workers.
"
"Wen Xinhou and Gangchengjun did not mention this, and the situation is naturally under control. But on the other hand, it may not be South Korea's internal strategy to move Qin's energy into the canal, so as to be unable to deal with it.
The Kanto countries invaded."
"Exhausting Qin's power on internal things can be called a plan to tire Qin!"
Returning to the wide channel of Xianyang City, they rode on horseback, with Qin Wangzheng in front, Guigu Gainei and Zhou Qing on the side, Li Xin and Meng Tian following behind, and a hundred-man cavalry following.
Feeling the words of Qin Wangzheng, Gai Nie's magnetic voice rose softly. Although the sound was not loud, it flowed clearly into the ears of Qin Wangzheng. Each had his own way, Zheng Guo entered Qin to control the water for Qin, but in the end
It has its own selfish motives.
"A plan to tire Qin!"
"In recent years, the Qin State has indeed had fewer foreign campaigns. This should be good news for South Korea and Wei. The plan to weaken Qin is a good plan to weaken Qin! Even if our Qin State spends its energy on rivers and canals, it will be a defeat for Han and Wei.
easy."
"It's no wonder that Wen Xinhou, who has just become the king, said nothing else. These two are both veterans of the previous king. They are in charge of the government. They should re-establish the foundation of the government and the public. The hydraulic engineer Zheng Guo has ulterior motives and his crimes should be punished!"
The King of Qin hated people with evil intentions the most. He had not yet understood that there was a letter waiting for Lu Buwei before. Now, there is another Zheng State. Do you really think that the Qin State cannot function without it?
Do you really think that Zheng Guo is the only one in the world who can regulate the Qinchuan canals?
He had a serious look on his face. When he was in the academy, he had felt something strange before. But now after listening to Gai Nie's words, he suddenly realized that it was definitely the case. The countries in Guandong expected Qin to weaken before it was too late, so how could they possibly help Qin become stronger.
"Hahaha, your Majesty, don't be anxious. Can you listen to Xuan Qing?"
I followed Qin Wangzheng out of Xianyang Palace today to relax my mind, but when I encountered such a thing, I was somewhat interested. Throughout the years, Zheng Guo could not kill him, and Ying Zheng had no need to kill him.
"What do you think, Master?"
Knowing that Zheng Guo had plans to weaken Qin, he was already a dead man in his heart. He suddenly heard the words of the master beside him, saying that King Qin's government was strange. All this time, what the master said came straight to his heart, and everyone had other opinions.
"As Mr. Gai Nie said, this is just a plan to weaken the Qin Dynasty. Even if Zheng Guo keeps delaying it, it will not prolong Korea's life for a few more years. However, if hundreds of miles of Qinchuan are turned into fertile soil, the king can know the pros and cons.
That’s it!”
"For the present plan, not only can the Zheng State not be killed, Xuanqing realizes that the king should also continue to recruit people's power to help Zheng State rectify Qinchuan. Although the Qin State can dominate the world, if there is a land of Bashu, the land of Qinchuan will be
Foundation, the Kanto countries will be even more vulnerable!"
