Chapter 291 Where Zhidao has been repaired will be the territory of Daqin
"Specifically in which area of the outer city the plan will be implemented, the selection of personnel from Yingchuan County and Nanyang County, and what standards will be used to price the newly built mansions, all this will have to be done by the Prime Minister of Lao." In Lu Buwei's words,
After thinking, Ying Zheng continued.
Ying Zheng only has a preliminary concept of this plan, but there are still many things to be done on how to implement it, and these things are undoubtedly extremely complicated, so they can only be left to Lu Buwei.
It is impossible for Ying Zheng to do everything personally, that would be unrealistic, and he does not have the time and energy.
"Your Majesty, regarding the demolition and reconstruction of a certain area in the outer city, I have a candidate." Lu Buwei said.
"Cai Yang, son of Lord Gangcheng?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Exactly, Your Majesty, Cai Rang, as the son of Lord Gangcheng, has learned the true story of Lord Gangcheng, and has helped his ministers manage the Prime Minister's Mansion in recent years. It can be said that he is well organized and can handle everything no matter how big or small. Let him do it.
I think I will be able to take charge of this project," Lu Buwei said.
"I have talked to Lord Gangcheng about his son before, and he is considered capable. Since you, the Prime Minister, admire him so much, then leave this matter to him," Ying Zheng said.
"I would like to thank the king on behalf of Cai Rang." Lu Buwei said.
"Besides this matter, there is another matter that needs to be discussed with the Prime Minister." Ying Zheng said.
"I respectfully listen," Lu Buwei said.
"Today, when the State of Qin destroyed Han and annexed Zhao, its territory has almost occupied one-third of the world. In such a vast land, the issue of transportation has become very important. This is related to the State of Qin.
How deep can our power go in these newly occupied lands?" Ying Zhengdao.
"Does your Majesty want to build large-scale roads from Xianyang to other places?" Lu Buwei said.
Lu Buwei seemed to have a look of surprise on his face, but in his heart he said, "That's it."
When Ying Zheng sent hundreds of thousands of captives from Yan and Wei back to Guanzhong, Lu Buwei realized that Ying Zheng might use these captives to carry out large-scale engineering construction.
After all, in this era where food is everything, feeding those captives will undoubtedly consume huge resources. If you can't get enough returns from them, who would do such a stupid thing.
In the past few months, these prisoners had indeed invested in the construction of the Guanzhong Canal, so that the Guanzhong Canal, which might have taken another year or two to complete, could be completed early next year.
"It's time to proceed. When the roads from Xianyang to various places are built to the current border of Qin, it will be time to use large-scale troops against the five countries." Ying Zheng said.
Until the road is built? Lu Buwei recalled Ying Zheng's words and already knew that Qin would not launch troops against the five countries within five years.
The king seemed very stable in doing so. Lu Buwei subconsciously looked at Ying Zheng and thought.
For the current Qin State, it can be said that it has an absolute advantage over the five countries. Under such circumstances, not everyone can resist the temptation to unify the world.
However, under such circumstances, Ying Zheng could still think about concentrating his efforts to complete the integration of domestic forces. This calm mind is not at all like what a person who was just inferior to his youth can achieve.
Lu Buwei believed that when he was the age of Ying Zheng, he was the age where he loved luxury and showed off. The comparison between the two made Ying Zheng's steady detachment even more evident.
"The Prime Minister can tell Cai Yang that if he can complete the task of rebuilding the outer city, then he will be the one to preside over the construction of Qin's roads in the future." Ying Zheng said as Lu Buwei pondered.
"Yes." Lu Buwei responded, but he was shocked. He had planned this matter with Cai Yang. Today he brought Cai Yang here, but Ying Zheng's actions at this time are not temporary.
Get interested.
Could it be that there is someone from the king in the Prime Minister's Mansion? In an instant, a guess appeared in Lu Buwei's mind, which made the Qin Prime Minister dare not think about it anymore.
Even if this guess is true, he can only pretend not to know.
Lu Buwei did not leave Xianyang Palace until noon.
Among Lu Buwei's four carriages, Lu Buwei told Cai Yang, who had not been summoned by Ying Zheng from beginning to end, about the reconstruction of the outer city.
"This plan is indeed perfect." After listening to Lu Buwei's narration, Cai Yang couldn't help but admire.
"You must do this well. If you need anything, you can come to me directly. The king has already said that as long as you can do this well, you will be the person in charge of Qin's road construction projects in the future.
." Cai Yang said.
"Yes, I will do my best not to disappoint the prime minister and the king." Cai Yang said.
"In order not to disappoint the king, you must keep this in mind. If you cannot do this, I will consider whether to push you up." Lu Buwei frowned and warned Cai Yang.
Cai Yang was startled at first, but then realized that he had made a mistake. He couldn't help but said quickly: "Yes, I will definitely remember it."
"The construction of road projects will become one of the most important government affairs of the Qin State in the next twenty years. If you can complete this task well, then within the next twenty years, the Qin State's court will
Your place will not be missing, you must cherish this opportunity, there will be opportunities to reach a higher level in the future." Lu Buwei said.
While the two were talking, a carriage passed by their carriage. Lu Buwei's eyes drifted past the carriage inadvertently, and then he smiled at Cai Yang's increasingly serious gaze and said: "The carriage of Huayang Palace, look.
Your Majesty’s wedding is about to be put on the agenda.”
"That's right. Your Majesty has been crowned and has reached the age of marriage." Cai Yang said.
"It's just that the Princess of Chu is not a perfect candidate after all. Those people in Chu are hard to decide and may become a hidden danger to Qin in the future." Lu Buwei said thoughtfully.
"If you think about it carefully, even the Korean princess is more suitable than the overseas princess. Today's Qin State does not need to marry with any country at all." Cai Yang said.
"Forget it, this is the king's private matter, we don't need to talk about it. I think the king knows the serious relationship better than we do." Lu Buwei waved his hand.
With the return of Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei increasingly felt that he should correct his position.
Not long after, a graceful figure appeared in front of Ying Zheng.
Wearing a dark blue dress, she looked like a golden crow spreading its wings. Her long hair was tied low, with a hairpin, and dark blue gemstone jewelry. The long hair hanging down on both sides of her face added to her aura.
The gentle atmosphere, combined with each other, made the exposed skin on her neck even more crystal clear as snow.
The delicate facial features, slim figure, and noble eyes with gentleness made Ying Zheng see in her a temperament that only a wife can have, and it also made Ying Zheng want to turn her into a wife and children more and more.
