It was not easy to teach the people on the farm how to grow potatoes and corn, and Zhao Wen even tried to grow one himself.
After doing this, Zhao Wen immediately sent Xiao He, who was still dealing with government affairs, to Huaiyin County to find Han Xin, who was still a teenager.
After all, Han Xin trusted Xiao He very much in history, and if Zhao Wen remembered correctly, Han Xin now couldn't even afford to eat, and was looking for a living to eat. This was the time when he was most depressed.
Summoned by his own identity, and coupled with his fate with Xiao He, it will definitely not be too difficult to bring him.
As for himself, he came to Juhuan County overnight to invite Fan Zeng.
Looking at Fan Zeng, whose face changed drastically, with an expression of disbelief, Zhao Wen's expression became more solemn, and he said with a compassionate tone: "The Qin Dynasty has just been unified, but there are remnants of the Six Kingdoms inside, and the Xiongnu is watching outside!"
"If there is a slight mistake, the world will be destroyed. The younger generation is not talented. I am willing to lay a solid place for my descendants of Yan and Huang to survive, but I feel that I am not capable. Please help me, sir!"
It would be impossible to forcefully invite someone like Fan Zeng, so Zhao Wen directly lowered his status and satisfied the face of a scholar like Fan Zeng to the greatest extent, and invited him with the righteousness of the world.
This is the best solution Zhao Wen can think of. After all, he is really lacking talents now, and Fan Zeng is the top talent.
Of course, if this doesn't work, Zhao Wen will have no choice but to give up on Fan Zeng.
"My father is too impatient and often wants to complete the tasks that will take hundreds or thousands of years to come within a few years. The younger generation is young and ignorant, and even if he wants to give advice, he doesn't know how to do it!"
"Sir, you should know that a word from a superior person can often lead to the death of countless people at the bottom, and even cause disaster for generations. What is most lacking in today's world is upright people like you. Please put the overall interests of our descendants of Yan and Huang first and help the younger generation.
A helping hand!”
Fan Zeng looked at the Prince of Qin who had been talking non-stop since he came in, and even threatened him with the righteousness of Yan and Huang, and secretly sighed at the luck of Qin.
What he disliked most about the Qin Dynasty was that the First Emperor was too impatient and did not care about the power of the people in the world and even the support of the people.
But the Prince of Qin in front of him, who had greeted him as a junior since he came in, also saw this problem, and he was very thick-skinned and didn't care about his identity as a prince at all.
As far as he knew, the prince sent someone to divide the military power on the first day after arriving in Jiujiang, and the next day he agreed to a marriage alliance with the three surnames of Chu.
Also on the second day after arriving in Jiujiang, he released all the old and weak soldiers in the county, obtained the elites of the Chu State from the three surnames of the Chu region, and even dared to say in the army that the generals of less than a hundred generals would be selected based on their strength.
The most bold thing is that before the imperial decree was issued, it directly announced that people would not pay taxes for five years to reclaim wasteland. Only because of this, landless people from several surrounding counties have recently migrated to Jiujiang in large numbers, causing the population of Jiujiang County to increase significantly.
Anyone who really thinks that the prince in front of him is young and ignorant is really stupid!
"Why me?" Fan Zeng asked with a puzzled look on his face.
He considers himself to be unparalleled in resourcefulness, but very few people in the world know him. But now the prince has come in person and invited him with the courtesy of a junior, so that he can't even refuse. He obviously knows
His own ability is what he is most confused about right now.
"Junior only got to know senior by chance. Please help me, senior!" Zhao Wen bowed and bowed again.
Although Fan Zeng did not drive him out angrily after entering and committing suicide, Zhao Wen knew that the other party was definitely not a die-hard loyalist of the Chu State.
After all, Fan Zeng also sat back and watched Xiang Yu usurp the throne in history.
Historically, the other party wanted to be Xiang Yu's father-in-law. One was to restrain Xiang Yu, and the other was to save the scholar's face.
As for being determined to rebel, it is just that he is unwilling to learn a skill and have no use for it, and uses the world as a chessboard to show his ability.
Now that he, a prince, is asking for help with the courtesy of a junior, he has already given enough face, and his identity is enough for him to do his best. As long as he does a good job, he can definitely leave his name in history.
If under such circumstances, the other party still refuses to come out, Zhao Wen can only say that he has misjudged the person, and has no choice but to send this loyal minister of Da Chu on his way.
Fan Zeng glanced at the men in black armor who had blocked his family members since they came in. Each of them had a fierce look in their eyes, and even completely ignored the cries of his family members.
This is clearly telling myself that if you dare not agree, your whole family will die.
He glanced at the twentieth prince of Qin who looked sincere again, and sighed secretly in his heart: "The Kingdom of Chu is gone!"
However, the man took a few steps back and then bowed respectfully: "Fan Zeng pays homage to His Highness!"
"Hahaha, sir, please get up quickly, please get up quickly, I have a husband like Shang Tang got Yi Yin, King Wen got Jiang Shang!"
In the Qin Palace in the capital of Qin, Ying Zheng looked at the news coming from the Black Ice Platform in his hand, his face constantly changing.
First, he married a woman from a small county town and gave a jade pendant as a betrothal gift. At the same time, he also took a few people from the small county town with him.
He also married three surnames from Chu in the Chu region. Only a few months after leaving home, he already had four princesses who had given betrothal gifts.
That was all, but what followed was the demobilization of more than 6,000 county soldiers, and each of those who were dismissed were given one tael of gold, and those who stayed were given one pound of gold each.
In the blink of an eye, the three surnames from the Chu region plucked out several thousand of Chu's elites, and restored the number of 10,000 county soldiers. However, the combat power of these 10,000 people was completely different from before.
language.
Yingzheng even felt that he might be able to fight against his own imperial army guarding the imperial city.
I just thought that among the 10,000 county soldiers, 6,000 were elite soldiers that I had transferred for Zhao Wen. However, adding the Jiujiang County soldiers, there were still only more than 3,000 who were willing to stay in the army.
From this alone, one can imagine how war-weary the Qin Army is now.
Moreover, just one of the three surnames from the Chu region was able to gather thousands of top elites in one day. What is the situation in the other five countries? As soon as he thinks of this problem, Yingzheng's face becomes extremely ugly.
The country he thought had been unified now seems not as stable as he imagined, and there are too many forces he doesn't know about.
He raised his hand and handed the bamboo slip to Wang Wan. Ying Zheng also shook his head and smiled bitterly.
This twenty-year-old prince is definitely the most powerful among all the princes and has an extremely far-sighted vision, but he always causes some trouble for himself.
"I'm afraid the military needs to appease the military in advance!" After reading the bamboo slips, Wang Wan's first reaction was to appease the military immediately. The military merit conferment system of Great Qin has been running for so many years, and there are strict regulations on what kind of merit should be given to what position.
Now that the twenty princes have chosen to select less than a hundred generals based on ability, this is completely destroying the foundation of the military merit conferment system. It would be strange if the military has no objection!
