Daqin: Selling elves at the beginning, Zulong begged me to supervise the country

The next day.

The First Emperor held an early court meeting in Lanchi Palace.

The Qin Dynasty did not establish a morning dynasty.

Qin Shihuang achieved the unification of the six countries in ten years and paid more attention to practicality.

Going to court in the morning is undoubtedly a constraint.

When the courtiers get up every morning and pretend to be quail in front of him, they might as well go out and do some practical work.

On weekdays, I only discuss political affairs with a few close ministers.

Usually, they only come together to discuss important matters.

Li Si's position was not forward or backward. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Li Si secretly yawned.

Li Si can also be regarded as the confidant of the First Emperor.

After destroying the six kingdoms, Li Si single-handedly fought against the ministers and assisted the First Emperor in implementing the system of prefectures and counties.

The position of prime minister was vacant, and everyone thought that the position of prime minister belonged to Li Si.

Unexpectedly, Wang Wan came to power.

As one of the Nine Qings, Tingwei's official position is not low.

Life was pretty good.

"My dear friends, do you have anything to report recently?" The First Emperor glanced at the ministers one by one.

Quail No. 1, Quail No. 2, Quail No. 3...

There have been two major events in the DPRK recently. One is the drought in Jiuyuan County and Yunzhong County, and the other is the long-lasting Battle of Baiyue, which makes it difficult to supply military supplies in the poor mountains.

The first is natural disasters. The only way is to allocate food to relieve the victims and prevent the victims from spreading abroad.

But the treasury was empty and there was not much food available for embezzlement.

I don’t know how many percent of the food will be put to practical use.

No one wants to be involved in this mess.

Second, it is also a big problem. The mountains in southern Guangdong and Xiou have high and dangerous roads and crisscrossed rivers, making marching operations and the transportation of military supplies extremely difficult.

The Shiwan Mountains in Xiou can be called a natural barrier for the Xiou tribe.

There is no surefire way.

Old General Wang Jian suddenly came out.

Everyone's eyes were burning.

He is worthy of being a battle-hardened veteran general, with such momentum!

The old general has been fighting all his life, so he must have a way.

Everyone placed their hope in Wang Jian, asking him to come up with a solution so that their lives would be easier.

The First Emperor was waiting for Li Si to speak when he saw Wang Jian coming out of the queue.

His expression also became excited.

No matter how you look at it, Wang Jian is more reliable.

"I have something to report."

"My dear, please speak." The First Emperor couldn't wait any longer.

"I want to sue Tingwei Li Si. He has no respect for his superiors and despises the imperial court. He indulges his servants in their pursuit of pleasure in broad daylight. His Li Mansion is noisy with gongs and drums. That's all. He also keeps monsters in captivity. I'm afraid that Li Si has some problems." A disloyal heart will bring disaster to the country, the country, and the country."

After Wang Jian finished speaking, no one had time to react.

That's it?

If there is a banquet in this man's house, there is no need to bring it up to the court.

Although it was indeed a bit exaggerated yesterday, the entire Yonghefang probably heard it.

Depend on!Why did it get to me?

Li Si, who was still distracted, suddenly woke up.

jumped out.

"Old General Wang, don't blame me. The servants were a little indulgent yesterday. This is something they don't do on weekdays. I will definitely discipline them when I get back."

"As for the monster that Old General Wang said is simply nonsense!"

"I have no control over your servants in the Li Mansion. I just want to remind Mr. Li to avoid causing big trouble in the future."

"As for the monster, half of the servants in my house have seen it. Your Majesty can declare that the servants in my house are facing off."

"The monster looks like a human, but its nose is different from ordinary people. It is a red ball, naked, and has a nose on its belly. If it isn't a monster, it is something else!"

"I don't know what kind of magic the monster used. It smashed the walls of the two mansions to pieces with one palm. It hasn't been repaired yet. The monster shuttled between the two mansions as if it were nothing."

"Your Majesty wants to make the decision for me!"

You think you are my age and want to stare at a subordinate of your junior generation, huh.

That's not the point, okay?

The point is the wall!The walls of my palace!

The monster you raised is running around in my house wondering what's going on. If you don't participate in stealing military secrets, you are already saving face for you, Li Si.

Li Si was questioned and had nothing to say.

Monini did indeed blow down the walls of the two mansions with one palm.

"Old General Wang, I can't build the wall yet, why don't you take a copy of it from me?"

Li Si was a little helpless.

"Hmph, I don't want you to have a long memory. If you fix it today, it will be bombed again tomorrow!"

"Okay, Li Siqian, you have two days to restore the palace wall to its original state."

One of these two people is a grandfather, and the other is Grandpa Zeng’s son.

Seeing them arguing over a wall, he felt ashamed for them.

"Old General Wang, do you think there is a solution to the Baiyue issue?"

If you don’t tell me, I’ll just ask them one by one.

"I am incompetent and there is no perfect way."

Baiyue's natural terrain means that even if he goes there, he can only fight for a long time.

"Li Si, what about you? Do you have any ideas?"

Yesterday you promised me. If you can't explain why, then Monini will be mine.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I have been thinking about it these past few days, and I have thought of a way."

"Oh? In what way?"

"Waterways! There are water systems all over the mountains in Nanling. As long as you make a little use of them, the food and grass problem can be solved!"

This is the result he came up with after studying the map for several days. It can be worth a Pokémon no matter what.

"It's a way!"

"I think this method is of little use!" Zhi Su Nei Shi Fanze retorted.

"Tell me more!" He wanted to see what he could say.

"I have already tried this method. Our army's supplies are mainly in the Bashu area."

"The water system here can lead directly to the Xiang River. Ships can enter along the Xiang River and go upstream to Xing'an County."

"At this point, the only option is to abandon the boat and land on the shore, transport the grain and grass across the Five Ridges by manpower, and then transport it along the water to the hinterland of Lingnan."

"The mountains are too steep to drive, the soldiers are miserable, and it is extremely inconvenient to get on and off the ship. The grain and grass are transported among the high mountains and ridges, and things are lost and mildewed from time to time. For every ten carts of grain and grass, only a few are transported to Lingnan. There are one or two.”

"This is the precise reason why food and grass cannot be supplied in time."

Fan Ze shook his head helplessly. It wasn't that he didn't work hard. He had tried all his methods and the errand was not finished yet.

He was thinking about when to resign.

As Fan Ze slowly went deeper, the First Emperor's brows never relaxed.

After listening to Fan Ze's words, Li Si adjusted his sleeves unhurriedly.

"Master Fan is right to the point. Xiangshui and Lishui are the key to solving the problem!"

"Why?"

"Your Majesty, please see the map." Li Si handed the map to Zhang San.

"The tributaries of Xiangshui River and Lishui River run through the entire Baiyue area. If a canal is dug from Xing'an County to connect Lishui River, it will be unobstructed."

"Cai! Big Cai!" After hearing this, the First Emperor quickly came down from the palace and patted Li Si's shoulder happily.

"Cai! Big color!" Upon seeing this, all civil and military officials in the court also agreed.

"Shi Quan, do you think it's feasible?"

Shi Quan took the map handed over by Zhang San and looked at the Xiangshui and Lishui areas.

It’s not necessarily impossible, it’s just a lot more difficult.

"Back to Your Majesty, the water level of the tributaries of Li Shui is nearly three feet higher than that of Xiang River. If the water level needs to be raised to connect it, that is, to build an underground river, it may be difficult to implement."

"Is it difficult to implement? I think your skills are inferior to others!"

It’s rare to find a solution!The First Emperor did not want to give up.

"If anyone can solve this problem, I will reward you with food, a hundred stones, and a mansion."

The words fell silent and the officials whispered among themselves.

But no one came out.

Seeing this, the First Emperor had no choice but to do something else.

"That's all!" He stood up and walked to the back hall.

"I have a solution!"
