Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

Zhao Che shook his head.

In ten years, he has built Jingshui into his most important base, and it would be troublesome to move here easily.

"It's okay, it's up to you, but you don't need to hide your identity in the future, you should have no objection to letting the widow out?"

"It's okay not to hide it, but will many people bother me?"

Zhao Che said with some worry that he was used to living a leisurely life.

It would not be a good thing for him if he lost his leisurely life because of his status as a prince.

"Don't worry, I won't let anyone disturb you easily."

Ying Zheng laughed.

He was still willing to follow Zhao Che's opinion on such a small matter. Anyway, now that the father and son have recognized each other, there will be plenty of time in the future, so there is no rush to take things slowly.

"That's fine, but I just came here today, and I have some good news for you!"

"Oh? What good news!"

Ying Zheng immediately became excited when he heard this.

"Remember what I told you before, about capturing Xu Fu?"

"What? Do you have a solution?"

Ying Zheng naturally remembered, but Zhao Che hadn't built a boat yet, so he could only let that old dog Xu Fu live for a while.

"Of course there is a way, and there is also a way to develop South Vietnam!"

"Develop South Vietnam? What way?"

"Build trains! Build railroads!"

"What kind of car is a train? What kind of road is a railway?"

Ying Zheng asked these two unfamiliar words.

"The train is a vehicle specially used for transportation. It is connected by carriages and pulled by the front of the front. It does not require manpower or horses to pull. The transportation efficiency is extremely high and the speed is very fast."

"The railway is a road dedicated to trains. As long as these two things are manufactured, we can open up the transportation gateway between South Vietnam and the Central Plains."

"By the way, this train can also be used to travel, as a means of transportation. For example, the journey that originally took several months to arrive can be completed in a maximum of two or three days."

……

Hearing Zhao Che's description, the faces of Ying Zheng and Zhang Han were already full of shock.

"Che'er, is the train you mentioned really so powerful?"

"Of course, you don't think I'm lying to you, do you?"

"No, no, it's just that this matter is too miraculous, and I can't understand it for a while."

Ying Zheng shook his head. He still believed in Zhao Che. After all, Zhao Che had proposed too many incredible things, and didn't they all come true in the end?

Not to mention the faster transportation like trains, even if Zhao Che said that he could create something that could fly in the sky and swim under the sea, Ying Zheng would believe it.

"Of course, the trains and railways are not so easy to build, so don't worry now, take your time!"

After telling the good news, Zhao Che immediately poured cold water on Ying Zheng.

However, Ying Zheng was not disappointed. Knowing that there was such a thing as a train was already very satisfying to him.

"Before that, we can build the ship first, and then go find that old dog Xu Fu!"

"Okay, after you catch Xu Fu, you must bring him back to the widow, and the widow will cut him into pieces!"

Ying Zheng gritted his teeth and said.

"No problem, I can mobilize resources now and prepare to build a ship, and it's the kind of ship that doesn't require manpower!"

"You don't need manpower? Then how do you run?"

Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment.

"It's what I just said. It's the same principle as that train. A ship that relies on a steam engine as its power, not only does not require manpower, but its power is also greatly improved."

"If that's the case? Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and start manufacturing. If you need manpower or something, just tell me!"

Ying Zheng patted his chest and said impatiently.

"It's easy to build a ship. After all, I have blueprints and talents. I just need to find enough resources. However, the training of sailors is also more important."

"You don't have to worry about building ships, dad. You just need to provide me with enough technical personnel and ore resources, and then you can help me find suitable personnel for sailing."

"In a maximum of three months, I guarantee that a suitable ship can be manufactured, and then the eastward journey can be made!"

……

"Okay, I'll issue an order immediately. Let people prepare materials and manpower, and then send Gong Shuchou and Mo Sheng from the Ministry of Industry to assist you. Make sure to complete the ship in the shortest possible time!"

With a wave of his hand, Ying Zheng directly called for his servant, and wrote the decree in front of Zhao Che.

"Ministry of Industry? Dad, when did you set up such a department?"

Zhao Che asked with a smile.

"The Ministry of Industry has been established a long time ago, and its main members are from the Gongshu family and the Mohists. At present, Gongshuchou is the chief Sikong of the Ministry of Industry."

Ying Zheng introduced the simple structure and responsibilities of the Ministry of Industry to Zhao Che.

"That's right, dad. Your vision is really strong. The Ministry of Industry will definitely grow stronger in the future. In the future, all the engineering affairs of my Daqin can be handed over to the Ministry of Industry."

Zhao Che praised Ying Zheng's vision and methods.

"It's all small tricks, not worth mentioning."

Ying Zheng smiled and waved his hands. Although his words were modest, Zhao Che's praise was still very useful.

"The spring plowing should almost be over, then we can consider building a new factory!"

"New factory? What do you plan to build?"

Ying Zheng asked curiously.

"A lot, but the most important thing at the moment is the iron and steel smelting factory. After all, Dad, you know that our next actions will definitely consume a lot of steel."

"Whether it is to manufacture weapons or ships, a lot of steel materials are needed, as well as other more minerals and resources."

……

Hearing this, Ying Zheng couldn't help frowning.

"Che'er, we already have enough factories at present. If we continue to build factories, I'm afraid we won't be able to spare more manpower."

If Zhao Shu was here and heard Zhao Che's plan, he would vomit three liters of blood.

The factories and industries that Daqin is currently building are all managed by the Ministry of Commerce, and they are exhausted just counting various accounts every day.

If they continue to build factories, it will simply kill them.

However, Zhao Che naturally had a solution for this.

"Father, according to our current situation, I suggest that those more important industries, such as the Salt Mine, be regarded as state-owned industries. As for the unimportant ones, all of them should be given to businessmen as private industries."

"Anyway, the original purpose of our establishment of these factories is not to provide jobs for the heads of Guizhou, but also to improve people's livelihood."

"Things like shampoo, mirrors, and instant noodles are actually just daily necessities, and even if they are exposed, they won't affect us."

"If it really doesn't work, we can also create a brand franchise model like the previous restaurant franchise model. We only need to authorize those merchants to use our brand and formula, and then wait for the money to be collected."

……

"But in this way, isn't it too cheap for those businessmen?"

Yingzheng was a little reluctant. After all, although the products produced by these factories were not so important, it was true that they made money. In Xianyang alone, the annual profit could almost catch up with the tax revenue of a county.

"Father, you should be more generous. What we want is to make Guizhou head and the country achieve common prosperity, instead of collecting all the wealth in the national treasury."
