Chapter 809 Hope

"I will report to the king and ask you to serve as the temple minister of Daqin City and the first director of the newly established Daqin Investment Agency!" Jin Yao said with a smile.

He doesn't understand how Great Qin should go and develop, but he understands things like market economy, which may not seem like big problems, but are actually related to the livelihood of all people.

Therefore, leave professional matters to professionals.

The development direction and institutional issues of Da Qin are left to Li Si, Han Fei and the others.

What you have to do is to ensure people’s livelihood!

Regarding the newly established Daqin Investment Agency, Ying Zheng did not pay much attention to it, and asked Qi Wangjian to serve as the Minister of City and Temple. Ying Zheng also did not think much about it. Jin Yao just submitted a report, and he signed and sealed it and sent it back to the Right Prime Minister's Office.

Compared to King Jian of Qi, Ying Zheng was even more happy that Jin Yao no longer acted badly and was really building a new government and taking charge of the Right Prime Minister's Office.

"The world has been unified, and the title of king is no longer enough to match my status!" Ying Zheng looked at Jin Yao and said.

This is also the thought of many ministers.

There are too many kings in the world. The monarchs of Qin, Chu, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Qi were all called kings. However, after the unification of the Qin Dynasty, the king's title was obviously not majestic and domineering enough.

"Proclaim yourself emperor!" Jin Yao looked at Ying Zheng and understood that at this court meeting, he might have to witness with his own eyes the birth of the title of First Emperor.

Sure enough, all the ministers held a meeting and agreed that Ying Zheng should give up his title and proclaim himself emperor!

But Ying Zheng still felt that the imperial title was not enough to demonstrate his achievements.

Then Li Si came forward and believed that Ying Zheng's achievements were comparable to those of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and he should be called the emperor!

Ying Zheng was also very satisfied with Li Si's proposal, and then he called himself the First Emperor, and the kings of the Qin Dynasty in later generations were kings for the second, third, and even eternity.

Watching Ying Zheng and Li Si singing and singing, Jin Yao rolled his eyes. If he hadn't known that Ying Zheng and Li Si had already discussed this title in private, he would have almost believed that it was just the idea of ​​the two.

However, as soon as the title of emperor came out, the courtiers were still shocked.

If other people compare themselves to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, the courtiers may still have some opinions and think that it is too high, but this is the first time in thousands of years to end the war and unify China, and even expand the territory by millions, and will

The barbarians in the north and the Rong and Di in the west pacified and engulfed the king, so it seems that it is not an exaggeration to call him emperor.

After the title of emperor was decided, the historians were the most tired, because they had to change all the previous historical materials about Yingzheng, and all those who were originally called Qin Wangzheng had to be changed to the First Emperor.

For example, the first year of the Qin Dynasty will be changed to the first year of the First Emperor, and the era method will also be changed.

The finalization of the title and the end of the unification ceremony also announced that the war that had lasted for hundreds and nearly a thousand years had finally come to an end.

Da Qin will also enter a period of recuperation.

The military and political affairs of the Qin Dynasty were also undergoing reforms in full swing.

In terms of military affairs, Li Mu did not mess up anymore. He stood up and announced that millions of troops would be laid off. Guard stations were set up in each county, and elites were selected from the original army to supplement them. Those who were originally soldiers during war and farmers in their spare time

The military service system was also changed.

Military status also came into being. Da Qin established thirty-six guard posts, one in each county. Depending on the population and area of ​​the county, the number of people ranged from 3,000 to tens of thousands. In addition, in Lishan, Lantian, Wuwei, and Longcheng

, Yanmen and other places formed large corps, each numbering more than 100,000, covering warriors, soldiers, cavalry and other types of arms.

All military services are demobilized and are trained full-time.

At the same time, the First Military Academy of the Qin Dynasty was established, and Ying Zheng became the first palace master. All officers of the guard must study in the academy.

This also means that Ying Zheng will also directly lead the entire Da Qin army and appoint all the commanders of the guards.

At the same time, all guards officers are replaced every five years and are not allowed to be re-elected. This prevents the guards officers from relying on their own troops and puts an end to local separatism.

Politically, Li Si took the lead and began to implement the system of prefectures and counties and popularize the new Qin laws.

All Qin laws are engraved with stone tablets in various counties and counties to prevent people from misinterpreting Qin laws or even disobeying Qin laws.

The little Confucian sage Fu Nian, the great master of Zhuang Zhuang, became the master of Da Qin Academy. He was in charge of the rural schools all over the world and was awarded the title of Marquis.

Headed by Right Prime Minister Jin Yao, assisted by Dianke Qing Guo Kai, and assisted by Yushi doctor Feng Quji, the Right Prime Minister's Office implemented the household contract responsibility system, distributed land to the people, and the people decided on their own to contract the land area and uniformly taxed it.

The people were divided into acres and taxes were collected on a per-capita basis, which was called the one-whip method.

At the same time, supplemented by the Green Crops Law, the government provided production tools and grain seeds to the people to help them resume production after the war.

For a time, the entire world was in full swing of mass production.

"Is this what he said?" In the fields outside Xianyang City, Ying Zheng looked at the people with eyes full of energy and hope, smiled and shook his head.

When I asked that guy to be the Right Chancellor, I didn't want to say anything, but he's doing a pretty good job now, right?

Li Si also smiled. He originally thought that after Jin Yao became the right prime minister, he would take away his power and let him respect the right prime minister's house.

However, there was no such struggle for power. Among the two prime ministers, the right prime minister's office dominated people's livelihood matters, while the left prime minister's office dominated the court and government orders.

Therefore, Li Si was also shocked by the promulgation of the decrees and systems of the Right Prime Minister's Office. Especially this time when they visited the Guanzhong of Qin State, they found that the people's lives were indeed better than before, and the people's lives were also more prosperous.

There are even more and more people who are part-time learners and engaged in other industries.

This means that these decrees issued by the Right Prime Minister's Office have truly made the people rich.

"Oh, a few years ago the poor could only eat bitter vegetable dumplings, but now they can't afford bitter vegetable dumplings!" An 80-year-old man said with emotion when he entertained Ying Zheng and his entourage who were on tour incognito at his home.

"Why?" Ying Zheng, Li Si and others were a little confused.

"Before the unification of the Qin Dynasty, there were only farmers and soldiers. They could go out to join the army at any time, leaving fertile fields abandoned. We could only dig some bitter herbs to make dumplings to satisfy our hunger.

But things are different now. Under the leadership of His Majesty the First Emperor, Lord Wu An has transformed the army, so that we no longer have to worry about being forcibly recruited into the army, and it also gives us time to take care of the land.

This has made the bitter herbs that were originally everywhere almost extinct. There are cultivated fertile fields and vegetables everywhere. If you want to eat bitter herbs, you can only find them by running deep into the mountains and old forests.

This also makes the price of bitter vegetables much higher than ordinary vegetables and even meat, and most people really can’t afford it.”

The old farmer smiled and shook his head.

Ying Zheng and Li Si were sluggish. In the past, they had no choice but to eat bitter herbs. Now they have a choice, but they can't even afford bitter herbs!

"When His Majesty came to Guanzhong when he first took office, he said that after the world is unified, the hard times will be over. In fact, we don't believe it. After all, it has been like this for hundreds of years. Even if the world is unified, what will happen?"

"But now that I think about it, the old farmer is short-sighted. There is hope for this world and this Great Qin!"
