I am a child of Daqin Xiong, who supervises the country at the age of eight

Chapter 163 Unexpected Scene
At this moment.

Ying Zheng had indeed accepted the memorial, and took it in his hand to read it carefully.

But after taking a few glances at the memorial, Ying Zheng's face was full of anger.

with a snap.

I saw Ying Zheng slapping the memorial on the table suddenly.

"This kid actually left Donghu captives behind!"

"..."

There was a sudden silence in the hall, and the officials did not dare to utter a single word.

Even Li Si, who had just congratulated Ying Zheng, was dumbfounded.

I was thinking.

What's wrong, Your Majesty?All of a sudden, he got so angry.

Just when everyone was wondering, Ying Zheng spoke up.

"My dear ones, I ask you whether these captives should be killed!"

"Your Majesty, Young Master Nineteen, what did you say in the memorial?"

Li Si asked Ying Zheng cautiously.

I only heard Ying Zheng speaking on the dragon chair in the distance.

"This kid wants to keep all the captives, and then feed them with sweet potatoes, and let them do some work for my Great Qin!"

"This is a good thing!"

The moment they heard about this, the ministers said one after another.

This is indeed a good thing. Daqin has too much food to eat, although these food are not very delicious, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

The folks have already used this thing to raise pigs wantonly.

But just like this, there is still not enough food to eat, because the output of sweet potatoes is too high.

And now the Great Qin Empire is facing another national condition that makes people speechless.

That is the population is too small.

The current population of Daqin is higher than that of later generations.

It's too little.

But it happens that the land area of ​​Daqin is large.

Not too small.

Today's Great Qin Empire occupies the territory of Huaxia.

Except for the northeast, all land suitable for farming was conquered.

In such a situation, the population is small, so the per capita cultivated land will inevitably increase.

So ever.

The per capita arable land is more.

Under such circumstances, the more arable land, the more food can be planted, and in ordinary years, there will be more crops and more crops.

The yield of grain is not high, and more cultivated land can eat more.

But now, everyone still grows a lot of sweet potatoes according to the previous method.

I can't finish all these things.

There is too much food to eat.

This is for the people of Daqin today.

Of course it's something to be happy about.

This is a scene that they never dreamed of before.

But here comes the crux of the problem.

There is so much food that we can't finish it.

But the inexhaustible food is not resistant to preservation.

Well, this is quite normal.

Sweet potatoes Potatoes are not that easy to store food.

It can only be eaten now.

A large amount of grain rotted in the ground and in the warehouse.

For Qin Chao who was used to hard times.

It's like cutting their flesh with a knife.

Now it is possible to use these grains that are not very useful and are almost rotting.

To feed those captives, let them go to work.

It couldn't be better.

But then Prime Minister Li Si reacted keenly, and Ying Zheng didn't think this matter was bad.

After all, who is Ying Zheng?

His Majesty is the supreme emperor of the Great Qin Empire through the ages.

His wisdom shines like the stars.

There is no one who has come before, and there may be ancients behind.

In this situation.

Of course, Ying Zheng's anger had a reason.

But absolutely impossible.

Because, his prime minister, Li Si, could see that this matter was beneficial to Daqin.

How could Ying Zheng fail to see it?So his anger must have been elsewhere.

I only saw Li Si.

Zhao Yingzheng opened his mouth and asked.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not because of this, but please tell your Majesty clearly what's going on?"

"Li Si, you guessed my thoughts quite accurately!"

Ying Zheng chuckled and looked at Li Si in front of him.

Prime Minister Li Si is not just the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire.

He has another identity, that is, he and Ying Zheng are still in-laws.

According to the words of later generations, Li Si is Ying Zheng's in-laws!

Only Ying Zheng opened his mouth to explain.

"This kid is planning to use the captives as military exploits. This is where I am really angry!"

Well, the ministers came to their senses in an instant, and understood Ying Zheng's true thoughts, and also understood why Ying Zheng was so angry.

The reason is very simple. Ying Zheng is the emperor through the ages.

But as the emperor of a country.

Ying Zheng also had a problem.

That is stingy!
This stinginess does not mean that you are usually reluctant to eat or wear clothes.

It refers to the people below.

If the Great Qin Empire is compared to a company, then Ying Zheng is the CEO of this company and the president of this company.

And the ordinary people below are the employees of this company, the bottom-level employees.

As for Li Si et al.

This is the senior management of the company.

Wang Jian and the others.

That is the company's security team.

In this situation.

It is easier to understand.

Any boss is relatively stingy, and they are not willing to give too many benefits to their low-level employees.

especially.

They will try their best to deduct the benefits of low-level employees.

And this is Ying Zheng's idea.

There is a reason why he didn't want to give these prisoners the military exploits of low-level soldiers.

That is.

Taking a prisoner is as much credit as beheading a human being.

Too cheap for these soldiers, right?
Only Ying Zheng opened his mouth and said.

"Killing one enemy, beheading one person, how can it be the same as taking one person prisoner?"

"The national policy of my Great Qin Dynasty is that the head can be counted as military merit. This is the fundamental law of my Great Qin, but this kid asks me to change it? Of course I am angry!"

Ying Zheng sighed, and then explained.

All the ministers, shut up immediately.

The reason for not speaking anymore is simple.

What Ying Zheng meant was obvious that he was unwilling to promote the soldiers to titles so easily.

After all, a soldier's title has risen.

That means.

He, the emperor, has a lot to offer.

At this time, the military merit titles of the Great Qin Empire are not like the military merit titles that were destroyed in the later Han Dynasty.

These knighthoods are quite valuable at the moment.

Every title is real!
can obtain certain benefits.

In this situation.

Ying Zheng is a manager.

Of course, we must find ways to allow fewer people to obtain titles.

After all, having too many titles would harm the interests of the emperor.

Just like the capitalists of later generations, why didn't they raise wages for workers?

It is their interests that are lost because of the wage increase.

I only heard Ying Zheng speaking to the ministers in front of him.

"Don't mention this matter again, I will tell him personally, and teach this kid a lesson!"

Speaking of Ying Zheng, he changed the subject again.

"But having said that, the boy Changsheng made a great contribution to the victory against the Donghu people on the grassland this time. It can be said that he won this battle, and his credit is No. 1!"

"I'm still very satisfied with this, and I will treat it as a good compliment in the future!"

Hearing this, the officials were stunned.

Ying Zheng What does this mean?
Did you say that you won Changsheng before, but then you turned around and praised him again?

Only Prime Minister Li Si doubted it in his heart.

Could it be that His Majesty wants to beat and beat Young Master Nineteen?
