Chapter 194 Qin Qing’s Conditions

The scenery of Bashu has been majestic since ancient times.

Jiangyang is breeze mountain and jue river, and it is even more important to guard southern Shu, western Chongqing, northern Guizhou, and eastern Yunnan. Its geographical location is very important. Nowadays, the establishment of a county in Jiangyang is equivalent to setting up a heroic pass in the hinterland of Bashu, which is not open to thousands of people, and has also attracted many people to pay attention to it.

In the Central Plains, the sun is already scorching.

Qin Qing slowly climbed Yuchan Mountain with a crutch. On the top of the mountain, he could see a bird's eye view of Jiangyang City being built, and his eyes looked very confused.

As he gets older, Qin Qing's body is not as good as before.

Especially after a serious illness at the beginning of the year, she was left to lie on the couch for twenty days. In the past, she could walk as fast as she could. But now, she would get a breath after walking for a while. When she reached the top of the mountain, she felt sweaty and felt extremely tired.

Qin Man followed Qin Qing silently.

She had just returned from Donghai and came back to see Qin Qing with Liu Kan's instructions.

Although he didn't say anything to Liu Kan, everyone could see that there was a little unusual relationship between Qin Man and Liu Kan. Otherwise, Qin Man would not have been able to go back to the Bashan and Shu River day and night after seeing Liu Kan.

She likes Liu Kan!

Even people with a very nervous appearance like Cao Wushang can see it, let alone Qin Qing, who is old and stronger?

However, Qin Qing did not say it out loud.

The day after Qin Man returned, she brought Qin Man to Jiangyang. She called for the construction progress of Jiangyang County, but in fact, even Qin Man couldn't say what she thought in her heart. She just followed Qin Qing silently. She firmly believed that with her grandmother's wisdom, there were many things that even if she didn't say anything, her grandmother could see what she was. She could only wait for the opportunity.

Liu Kan invited Qin Man to bring an extremely precious gift.

But before he could give it to Qin Qing... Behind Qin Man, Shen Shiqi and Cao Wushang were about thirty steps away from Qin Qing's grandparents and grandsons, and followed silently. He had heard about how great Qin Qing was. But without Ba County, he would never understand Qin Qing's influence in Ba County. Her energy in Xianyang was even more amazing. Only after experiencing it can you understand it.

What an important matter is to establish a county government?

But Qin Qing just sent someone to Xianyang, and then the First Emperor ordered the establishment of Jiangyang County in Ba County. The time it took was not even more than two months. It would be fine if it was just established Jiangyang County, but the First Emperor actually sent someone to ask Qin Qing about the candidate for Jiangyang County Magistrate. That was the First Emperor, the first person in the Qin Dynasty... But in front of Qin Qing, he looked like a junior.

However, according to the previous rules, Qin Qing never interfered in the political affairs of the Qin Dynasty.

But this time, Qin Qing told the First Emperor's envoy: "Please report back to Your Majesty. Regarding the chief officials under Jiangyang County, I want to recommend some candidates, but I don't know if it can meet Your Majesty's wishes. I have already listed the list, and I also ask the angel to return to Xianyang and submit it."

In fact, this is also a gesture.

The envoy was very clear that if Qin Qing spoke, the First Emperor would never have any objection! Even if the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Taiwei Mansion and other officials in Xianyang were opposed, the First Emperor would agree to Qin Qing's request. Of course, no one would jump out to cause trouble.

In the middle of last year, Xianyang issued an edict, and the governor of Ba County came to appoint him in person.

Even before this, the county magistrate of Ba County had never seen him, but he could only obediently obey the edict.

So, Shen Shiqi became the county magistrate of Jiangyang County.

Cao Wushang was appointed as a county magistrate, in charge of military affairs. Cao Wushang and both knew the importance of Jiangyang. Whether it was for Liu Kan or the Qin family, although Jiangyang was just a newly established county government, it was also related to the cooperation between Liu Kan and the Qin family.

For this reason, Cao Wushang and Shen Yi even moved their family to Jiangyang.

Whether it was Shen Yiqi's parents or Cao Wushang's father, or the old Mr. Cao, who had already resigned from the position of pavilion chief, came to Bashu with his children. In addition, more than 30 elderly people from the Guan family also came to Jiangyang County.

There was another person who had come to Jiangyang that no one expected, that was the former Qin Censor, Zhang Cang, who was hiding in Lou Cang.

As Lou Cang became increasingly prosperous and its status in the Sishui region became more and more important, Zhang Cang began to become dangerous when he hid in Lou Cang.

The arrest warrant of the First Emperor is still valid.

There were more and more officials from all over the Lou Cang. Although Zhang Cang looked very safe when hiding in the castle, there was an old saying: Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of if you are not careful. If you are not careful, you will be exposed, and even Liu Kan will be implicated. For this reason, Cao Shen and others talked specifically to Zhang Cang, and finally Zhang Cang decided to leave Lou Cang and hide in Jiangyang for the time being.

This is the real emperor who is far away from the mountains.

It is the Qin family's sphere of influence. Judging from the current relationship between Liu Kan and the Qin family, Zhang Cang is very safe to hide in Jiangyang.

Zhang Cang's pseudonym Gongcang and arrived in Jiangyang with Shenshi's family.

Kuai Che also suggested that Zhang Cang take over the position of Jiangyang County Magistrate. It seems very conspicuous, but in fact, it is safer. Not to mention that no one in Ba County knows Zhang Cang, even if a problem is discovered, Zhang Cang can still solve it with the help of his rights.

Moreover, who would have thought that the prisoner wanted by the First Emperor became a local official in a panic?

As for Zhang Cang's identity, Qin Qing was not very clear. After arriving in Jiangyang, Zhang Cang was also very low-key, so naturally he would not arouse others' suspicion. Half a year passed in a flash, and Zhang Cang was able to speak fluent Bajun dialect, which became less and less noticeable.

Qin Qing, all his eyes were focused on the Lou Cang.

In midsummer, Yuchan Mountain is beautiful and lush.

Green mountains, green water; blue sky, white clouds...

It forms an extremely moving and extremely beautiful picture, making people feel relaxed and happy. The gentle mountain wind blows Qin Qing's gray hair.

With a crutch in his hand, Qin Qing seemed to be immersed in the mountains and rivers.

After a long time, she seemed to be muttering to herself: "I can't see enough of the mountains and rivers of Bajun in my whole life!"

After saying this, Qin Qing suddenly turned around and waved his hand to signal Qin Man to step forward, "Man'er, is things going well in Donghai County?"

"all the best!"

Qin Man whispered: "Sima Yan County Magistrate takes great care of me. In addition to taking all his daily duties, he also recruited 2,000 households from Tancheng. On the one hand, he can expand the population of Yancheng, and on the other hand, it also gives me great convenience. It is expected that Yancheng will produce 100,000 stones of coarse salt by the end of the year. It will produce more next year. Within three years, we will be able to take root in Donghai County."

"Three years, three years..."

With Qin Man's support, Qin Qing walked to a big tree.

A person in person brought a Hu bed made of walnut. This Hu bed originated from the Western Regions and is not common in the Central Plains. However, because Qin Qing had a business in the Western Regions, local partners gave this Hu bed to Qin Qing, which was also a gift.

Qin Qing sat on Hu's bed and pulled Qin Man to sit down.

"I don't know if I can last until three years!"

The voice was not loud, but Qin Man could hear it clearly. She couldn't help but look at Qin Qing in surprise, "Grandma, why did you say such things?"

Qin Qing smiled slightly, "Birth, old age, sickness and death are common things. Although grandma is obsessed with Taoism, she is not a cheating like the envy of Gao and Song Wuji. If you are born, you will die, and you will die. It is no big deal. Gods have the way of immortality, and people have the way of human beings... Using human beings, seeking the way of immortality that is immortal, just like the moon in the water, which seems moving, but very illusory."

Speaking of this, Qin Qing reached out to touch Qin Man's black hair.

"I'm not worried about the rest, but I'm worried about you, and the beautiful mountains and rivers of Bajun.

The Qin family is now extremely glorious, but it was my grandmother who earned it for the Qin family. If I live one day, the Qin family will be prosperous for a day, but if one day I am not here, I am worried... Man'er, I know why grandma drove you to Donghai County? The Qin family has many people, but you are the only one who can inherit me. But you are another girl, so I need you to create a situation and be able to succeed me naturally.

It is not easy to sit firmly in the position of the head of the family.

You must have enough results to shock those people.

In fact, I have already figured out a way for you, so there is no need to be such trouble. I originally thought about letting you marry Fusuer.

But……

It's good that we have a close relationship with the Qin Dynasty. Now His Majesty is stubborn and obsessed with the magic of gods. He has been bewitched by those liars and even distanced himself from the important officials in the court. The secrets of heaven are disordered, the secrets of heaven are disordered... It is not a bad thing to be clearer."

This was the first time that Qin Man heard Qin Qing talk like this, and she couldn't help but become frightened.

"Okay, if you have something to do, just open it up."

Qin Qing suddenly changed the topic and looked at Qin Man with a smile, "Actually, as soon as you come back, I know what you are going to do. Why, is there any new tricks for that anomaly? Haha, he is indeed good, and in such a short time, he was promoted to three consecutive ranks.

With him in Sisawa, you can gain a foothold faster.

However, once the secrets of heaven are in chaos, his current glory will become his biggest trouble... It is necessary to be cautious."

Qin Man's face changed slightly.

After hesitating for a while, she turned around and waved to Shen Jiqi to come over.

Holding a package in his hand, Shen Shiqi came to Qin Man and handed it over, and then immediately retreated aside to facilitate the conversation between the two grandparents and grandchildren.

Shen Shiqi is a very eye-catching person, and after being with Cao Shen and Tang Li for a long time, he also learned a lot.

Since taking office, he has done a great job in Jiangyang. In particular, the winery was quickly built and has been put into production, which has not only not been cut off on the market, but has increased the output a lot. Bashu winemaking has existed since ancient times.

The brewing method is even more perfect than that of the Central Plains.

There are enough craftsmen here. Qin Qing even recruited thirty famous brewers from Shu County, making the winery's technical ability more outstanding. With the reputation of Duling old wine, Jiangyang's development speed is very rapid.

In the past year, Jiangyang's population has surged to more than 4,000 households, even faster than the development of building warehouses.

Qin Qing had the blood of the Ba people. With this relationship, Shen Shiqi made friends with local indigenous people, which made Jiangyang's development rapid and very stable. Moreover, Shen Shiqi also obtained many local recipes for indigenous wine making, which increased the types of Duling old wine to twenty-three. The business became increasingly prosperous. Otherwise, with the local complex of people of this era, how could Guan Que move with his family?

Seeing Shen Shiqi retreating aside sensiblely, Qin Qing smiled with satisfaction.

Qin Man opened the package, which was a camphor wooden box. After opening the wooden box, Qin Man took out a stack of Chenggong papers full of official script from it, and took out a long sleeve from the box and poured out two tubes of brushes.

Brushes have existed since ancient times.

However, the brushes in the Qin Dynasty were mostly dipped in ink. The tip of the pen was very hard, and if there was too much ink, it would drip down and dirty the brocade; if there was too little ink, it would become very troublesome. As for the legend of Meng Tian making brushes, it has not appeared yet. At least in northern Xinjiang, Liu Kan found that Meng Tian also used this kind of hard pen to write. Liu Kan had a good foundation in Chinese studies in his previous life, and he also knew a little about the method of making brushes.

However, since the paper did not appear before, Liu Kan did not remember it.

After Cheng Miao made Chenggong paper, Liu Kan immediately thought of the four treasures of the study, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Liu Kan didn't know much about ink and inkstone. So he only made two brushes. After thirty days of attempt, he finally met his requirements.

"What is this?"

Qin Qing was stunned for a moment when he looked at the paper and pen.

After she saw the official script on the paper clearly, she couldn't help but scream in surprise.

The Qin Dynasty mainly focuses on seal script. Whether it is large seal script or small seal script, it is very troublesome to write and is not easy to identify. At least for folk promotion, it is difficult. However, official script is different. On the basis of seal script, some changes have been made to make the text easier to identify and it will be much more convenient to write. It has been six years since the Qin Dynasty unified the text.

But the promotion effect is not very good.

The main reason is that the structure of seal script is complex.
