When Zhao Tuo stepped out of the palace gate, his face remained calm.
But his steps were a little frivolous, and his hands hanging down were still trembling slightly.
My heart is surging.
"Brother Zheng is so generous!"
When Zhao Tuo thought of his reward, even though he had been a man for two lifetimes, he still could not maintain inner peace at this moment.
Give two hundred yi of gold!
One piece of gold is worth more than thirteen thousand dollars.
Two hundred yi is equivalent to 2.7 million yuan!
Such a huge number was enough to catapult Zhao Tuo into Qin's wealthy class.
Delicacies from mountains and seas, fine clothes and fine food.
Even if he does nothing from now on, just resting on his laurels, he can sit in a mansion and have a beautiful concubine, and sing and dance every day. Wouldn't it be a happy life like this?
Such a reward is not an exaggeration.
The King of Qin originally offered a reward of thousands of gold to the traitor general Fan Yuqi.
As the mastermind behind the assassination of Qin, Prince Dan would only reward him more, not less.
Wang Jian, who had made the most outstanding contributions, received 500 yi to himself. Li Xin and Zhao Tuo each received 200 yi. The remaining meritorious soldiers also received corresponding monetary rewards, which added up to more than a thousand gold.
Compared with the stimulation of money, what really shocked Zhao Tuo was the promotion of his title.
Awarded the third level of nobility!
Let him jump from the fifth-level doctor title to the eighth-level public servant.
What is public riding? It means "even if you are not facing a battle, you can ride on public carriages."
It is equivalent to him being able to take a public car when going out to do errands in the future.
Wouldn't it be nice to use a bus for private use?
Moreover, the public title in this era was far more valuable than the eighth-level public title in the late Han Dynasty, hundreds of millions of times more.
In the Three Kingdoms Wu Slips excavated by later generations, there are 47 names in one place, and 46 of them are public officials. Even a one-year-old kid can have a public title on his head. This system is so ridiculous.
Qin's title is genuine.
Zhao Tuo, who received the title of public servant, was not only rewarded with 800 acres of land and corresponding homestead, but also enjoyed the privilege of taking a bus when going out.
If he were to be an official, he would be qualified to be a chief official in the county, a middle-level cadre in the county. If he were to join the army, he would be able to earn at least two to five hundred men.
Of course, it does not mean that you can become an official if you have a title, you must pass the corresponding assessment.
"I thought it was two levels, but I didn't expect it to be upgraded to three levels. It's really unexpected."
Zhao Tuo secretly thought, because when he intercepted the Duke of Yan before, he had already been promoted to one level by relying on Ying Lun. He thought that the basis for this promotion might be to build a giant cannon to upgrade one level, and to capture the prince pill to upgrade another level.
.
Zhao Tuo would be satisfied if he could advance two levels in a row and reach the title of Duke. Who would have expected that the King of Qin would give him a surprise.
When he thought of this, an alarm bell suddenly sounded in Zhao Tuo's head.
"Young man, King Qin is deliberately promoting young people!"
Zhao Tuo suddenly thought that Qin Wangzheng in the main hall had a very good attitude towards Li Xin and praised him very much. He even gave people the impression that Li Xin had done more than Wang Jian.
Zhao Tuo understood what happened when he thought of what happened later when he attacked Chu.
Wang Jian has now destroyed the State of Zhao. Although the King of Yan fled, his capital city was destroyed, and all his elite soldiers and officials were captured. It was only a matter of time before the Qin State completely occupied the land of Yan. In this case, the State of Yan was equivalent to death.
In just two years, two kingdoms of ten thousand chariots were destroyed. This is an extremely high achievement.

Even Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an back then, couldn't reach this level.
The master is shocked by his great achievements!
The King of Qin was no longer willing to allow Wang Jian to continue to perform meritorious service. Not only was Wang Jian's great contribution and he was the most prominent person since the founding of Qin, it made him feel a little wary.
Moreover, because Wang Jian was already old, the King of Qin, who was still in his prime, needed fresh blood.
He wanted younger generals to expand his territory for him.
Therefore, the King of Qin rewarded these two young men Li Xin and Zhao Tuo very heavily and placed high hopes on them.
"I don't know when I asked the question, 'I want to attack Jing, how many troops will the general use to attack Chu?' I just hope it's not today."
Zhao Tuo was beating a drum in his heart. On the way back to Xianyang from Yandi, he actually found several opportunities to insinuate Li Xin, especially mentioning that the Chu State in the south was powerful and would not be easy to win.
However, Li Xin was in a state of excitement at that time and did not comment on Zhao Tuo's words.
Now that Xianyang has returned triumphantly, and with the King of Qin's heavy reward and praise, Li Xin's tail will definitely fly to the sky again. Zhao Tuo only hopes that the time will come later, so that he will have more opportunities to change Li Xin's mind.
He stood at the palace gate, waiting for Li Xin to come out.
The merit-rewarding discussion in the main hall was finished, and the officials began to leave.
Zhao Tuo and others still had to wait in the palace. The King of Qin specially set up a celebration banquet for these meritorious soldiers. In the evening, they would drink wine, sing, and enjoy delicious food together.
Wang Jian and Li Xin were being held by officials they knew well, chatting and laughing happily.
Zhao Tuo could only go out and wait outside the palace. He also wanted to take precautions with Li Xin before the banquet.
"Hey, isn't this the young hero of our Qin Kingdom?"
There was a voice, and Zhao Tuo looked for it, and his eyes suddenly shrank.
The speaker was a middle-aged man, probably in his late fifties, with a yellow face and a long beard, nearly eight feet tall, and a dignified appearance.
To be honest, I have been reading books recently to catch up on updates, switch sources, read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.】
What Zhao Tuo was most concerned about was that this man wore a four-inch tall crown, a straight and square Xuan Duan, a purple ribbon on his body, and in his hand was a purple jade gui that was more than one foot tall.
Marquis!
This is the attire of a marquis. His title is at the top of the entire Qin Dynasty's meritocracy system, but I don't know whether he is a Marquis of Guannei or a Marquis of Che.
"I have met the king."
Zhao Tuo hurriedly saluted respectfully and did not dare to neglect. No matter what the identity of the other party was, he was not someone he could afford to offend.
Before he could even bend down, a pair of hands had already grasped the clinker firmly.
"Don't be too polite. I like you and other young talents the most."
The monarch's hands were strong and he forcibly pulled Zhao Tuo up, with a smile on his face as he spoke.
This made Zhao Tuo dare not resist, so he could only take advantage of the situation and said humbly: "This villain only has some courage and serves in the army. He deserves no praise from the king."
"Haha, you are the one who said in front of the king, 'When a man is born, he will be a prince, and when he dies, he will be a temple servant.' Why do you need to be humble in front of me? I don't like this, a man should straighten his back.
, that’s how you stand proudly in the world.”
Zhao Tuo looked embarrassed.
I obviously only told the King of Qin, but now it is spread everywhere, as if everyone knows about it.

【Qin General】【】
"That's what the Lord said."
Zhao Tuo was obedient and didn't say much because he hadn't figured out the identity of the person in front of him yet, but the other person seemed to have good intentions.
At this moment, a tall, middle-aged man with a crown and a sword came over.
This man has a fair face, a mighty appearance, and he walks with a certain momentum and grace.
"I have met the king."
He first saluted and greeted the prince, and then looked at Zhao Tuo: "Mr. Zhao, the king wants to see you."
After hearing this, Zhao Tuo quickly accepted the offer.
The prince also smiled and said: "Since the king has summoned me, I won't stay any longer. Young man, if you have time, you can go and meet me at my house. I am Lord Changwen."
Chang Wenjun!
Zhao Tuo thought hard. He seemed to have heard of this name, but he couldn't remember the corresponding deeds.
This person probably didn't leave much of a name in the original history.
Thinking in his heart, Zhao Tuo also respectfully agreed.
To be personally invited by a prince was a great honor for an ordinary person, so how could he dare to refuse?
Seeing Zhao Tuo's promise, Chang Wenjun also smiled and said, "Very good, then I will wait for you."
After saying that, he looked at the white-faced middle-aged man again and said with a smile: "I'm done, Zhao Gao, take him with you."
