Chapter 523 Is the Prime Minister's Heart of Our Lady flooded?
There was nothing strange about Xiao He, but he folded his sleeves and retreated behind Qin Feng.
As for his position as deputy minister in the cabinet? It doesn't really matter.
Power is the most important thing!
But those civil and military officials who didn't understand the reason were shocked.
"What? Ying Ziying?"
"Who is Ying Ziying? There is no shady story behind this, right?"
"I don't know. I didn't sign for him. I don't even know him."
"Don't look at me. Do you really know me?"
For a moment, whispers began in the hall.
Everyone looked at Qin Feng in shock and began to look for who was Ying Ziying.
Of course, some officials have heard of his name.
But he is just a member of the Ying clan who does not cause trouble.
Yes, in fact, people have very low requirements for the royal family, just don't cause trouble.
But how could such a person who had no sense of existence for decades suddenly become a minor prime minister?
The strength of the Ying clan has completely collapsed under Qin Feng's repeated blows.
Today, Zong Zheng has been transformed into an old man in his seventies. He looks half-dead all day long. It is difficult for him to even go to court, let alone fight for any benefits.
But now, a member of the Ying clan has shown up again?
If this is the case, can Qin Feng endure it?
Wouldn't he just turn his back and crack open the seeds in Ying Ziying's head?
Just when everyone was surprised and ready to watch a good show.
Ying Ziying walked to the center of the hall with a naive smile and held Qin Feng's hands enthusiastically.
Qin Feng also smiled and held his hands, and the two of them were as close as if they had been close friends for many years.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, please give me your advice in the future! Ziying will look after you!"
"What are you talking about, Mr. Second Prime Minister? From now on, we should work together as one!"
After waiting for a long time, the melon-eaters didn't even see them fighting, and they suddenly became a little sluggish.
Is it possible that these two people are really dear friends and brothers?
Otherwise, the cabinet will be a carrot and a pit. Qin Feng is willing to give up a position?
Seeing that Prime Minister Qin Feng had no objection, the others also shut up.
Because there was an extra Ying Ziying temporarily, Shusun Tong was eliminated.
"Xiao He, Chen Ping, Zhang Liang!"
After saying that, Qin Feng paused and bowed respectfully:
"Your Majesty, according to the reform and reform law, as Prime Minister, I shall have the authority to appoint three provinces and six ministries."
"allow."
"Here!"
Qin Feng looked around and said loudly:
"Xiao He, the prime minister, serves as the secretary of the Zhongshu Province and has the power to draft edicts!
Zhang Liang, the prime minister of the group, is in charge of the provincial affairs department and has the power to review and approve seals and refutes!
Chen Ping, the prime minister, serves as the Shangshu Ling of the Shangshu Province, with six ministries under him to execute the political orders of the Zhongshu Province!
In addition, we will set up the Inspection Office, Dali Temple, Zongzheng, Shaofu, etc., together with the officials of the six ministries, and they will be discussed by the cabinet later!"
"promise!"
Zhao Ji drafted an appointment edict, signed it by Prime Minister Qin Feng, and presented it to Ying Zheng's desk.
Ying Zheng took the red calligraphy pen as "yes" and stamped it with the jade seal, which took effect immediately!
Seeing that the cabinet system of three provinces and six ministries was completely passed, even though his face was as calm as Qin Feng, he was very excited in his heart!
[Emma! We are also the Prime Minister! With the blessing of our ancestors, our old Qin family is also going to be successful!]
[Calm down, take a deep breath, you can’t fucking be embarrassed!]
[Aloof, you must be aloof, Qin Feng, the Iron-Blooded Prime Minister of the East! Quack, quack, quack!]
Listening to the constant quacking of ducks in his ears, Ying Zheng couldn't help but darken his face.
Sure enough, this brat hasn’t changed at all!
The maturity and stability I had just now were all just an act!
Looking at Qin Feng with an indifferent expression on the main hall, Ying Zheng subconsciously held the Itchy Tickling.
Why does this bastard deserve a beating so much?
No, my hands are itchy so much, I’ll give them a good beating first before going to court!
Well, who asked him to enter the main hall with his right foot first?
Qin Feng was completely unaware of the impending doom. He looked around and issued the first decree.
"After discussion among the five of us, the "Slavery Law" will be promulgated.
At present, the bill has been drafted by the Zhongshu Province. After it is submitted to His Majesty for review and approval, it will be submitted to the Menxia Provincial Department for review.
If there is no objection, it will be implemented by Shangshu Province!"
As soon as these words came out, a stone immediately stirred up a thousand waves.
The slave market did flourish during this time.
With Li Xin's eastern expedition, not only beautiful but also exotic dancers from the Western Regions came to Xianyang in large numbers.
More of them are prisoners of war from various ethnic groups, packaged and sold in the form of slaves.
However, with the emergence of the Kucha Allied Forces, Li Xin did not dare to act rashly, and the slave trade was curbed.
But the population of Da Qin is really too small.
With the continuous reclamation of land and the continuous advancement of large-scale water conservancy projects, the population gap is also growing.
Whether you work in a workshop, sell food in an entertainment venue, or participate in a project, you will make more money than farming.
At least this is the case in the Guanzhong region, and the Kanto region is also changing in this direction.
As the economy develops and national strength becomes stronger, the population in the primary industry will inevitably shift to other industries.
With the end of the war and the arrival of the population explosion, waves of children continue to appear, but it also takes time for babies to grow up.
At this time, an idea emerged.
The noble Daqin people should not be engaged in such low-end industries!
Slaves should be hired for farming! Qin people just work to make money, or just enjoy life!
If there is a buyer, there will naturally be a seller.
When the supply of slaves in the Western Regions was temporarily insufficient, some people turned their attention to the north.
Mao Dun, Liu Bang, Yu Ji, and a team of hundreds of thousands of people used their blood to forge a road and communicate with the tribes on this road.
As a result, the northern army, led by Meng Tian and Wang Li, began to hunt frequently.
A large number of uncivilized savages were imported into Da Qin from the north.
The common people of Qin who work hard will not be stingy with the price of five Qin and a half taels to hire a slave to farm for a month.
After all, I can earn a hundred and a half taels in a month in the porcelain workshop!
Slaves only need to eat the coarsest food and rest for the shortest time, but they can do the most work.
As for whether it will kill you from exhaustion? No one cares.
Most of the officials in the court were rewarded with large amounts of land.
So when I heard Qin Feng's words, I immediately tensed up.
Is it possible that the Prime Minister has a Bodhisattva-like heart and a Holy Mother-like heart, and cannot see slaves? Should it be banned?
If that's the case, wouldn't the slaves you bought for your family have been wasted money?
Just when everyone was worried, Qin Feng took out the drafted bill and said loudly:
"I am a descendant of Yan and Huang, a descendant of China, and a noble person! I cannot be compared to the barbarians!
Therefore, anyone who dares to take the descendants of Yan and Huang as slaves will be killed without mercy!
If the Xiongnu in foreign lands capture our people in the Qin Dynasty and make them slaves, their country will be destroyed, their species will be wiped out, and their descendants will be exterminated!"
On the dragon throne, Ying Zheng's deep and majestic voice came like thunder:
"Yes, any of our people in the Qin Dynasty who are attacked in foreign lands will be deemed to have declared war on our Qin Dynasty!"
