MTL - I Broke Through Again-Chapter 68 Grab the show, tired Qin

   Chapter 68 Stealing the show, tired Qin

  The palace lanterns hang high in the Prince's Mansion, and the light is as bright as fire.

   There were two carriages parked outside the mansion, and the four walls were covered with dark carriages.

   In one of the carriages, there were two middle-aged men.

   One person is chubby, with a white face and no beard, dark green shading under dark clothes, gorgeous ornaments, slightly puffy eye bags, but sharp eyes.

   This person is the head of the Korean envoy to Daqin, Yuhou Han Yi.

The other man has a square face, fine slit eyes, a short nose and a long physique, thick lips, a short stature, and a healthy bronze complexion. He wears a brown robe with only a piece of cloth tied around his waist. Zheng country.

   This gentleman is a master craftsman of water conservancy projects in the world.

  Han Yi is instructing and enlightening Zheng Guo: "Qin Chu Zhao Huaizhong is very important to the purpose of our trip, and this person may be the master of Da Qin in the future.

   If we can convince him and Lu Buwei, our trip will be more than half successful. "

   "I won't get out of the car later. Zheng Gong must remember what he said before, and he must not say it wrong. Just say that you are visiting the door alone and offering suggestions to the Qin people. Building a water conservancy can help the Qin people solve their worries.

The location of    Qin land lacked plains, making farmland reclamation difficult and grain yield insufficient.

  Your suggestion will be very attractive to the Qin people. "

Zheng Guo worried and said: "If this plan is successful, it will indeed give us a chance to breathe, but what will happen in a few years, if the Qin people really build the water conservancy, the day when the water conservancy is completed, our Korean people will be in danger, and I am afraid that there will be no more in the world. People can stop Qin people from going out."

  Han Yi's eyes were sharp, and he said angrily: "I don't know what you said, but if you don't do this, the catastrophe is at hand."

   took another breath and said, "If the Qin people get in the way, I will join forces with Zhao Wei to strengthen myself. After a few years, there may not be a chance to stop the Qin people from going out."

   Zheng Guo was silent for a long time before letting out a sigh.

Han Yi thought thoughtfully: "Then the Qin Chu Zhao Huaizhong is still young and has been in Zhao State for many years, it must be easier to deal with than Lu Buwei. When you meet him, first give the gift you bring to move his heart. Then take the opportunity to put forward a proposal for surrender.

   We took Qin Chu as a breakthrough to open up the internal barriers of the Qin people and implement our plan. "

  In the history of China, the Han people were forced by the Qin Bingfeng and became increasingly decadent. King Huan of Han was desperate and adopted a so-called "tired Qin" strategy.

   The famous water conservancy engineer Zheng Guo was used as a spy to persuade Qin to dig a large irrigation channel between Jingshui and Luoshui (North Luoshui, a tributary of Weishui).

   On the surface, it is possible to develop the agriculture of the Qin State, but the real purpose is to consume the strength of the Qin State and overturn its center of gravity to the water conservancy construction, so as to invade the Han land flawlessly.

   This strategy was successful to some extent.

  Because the Qin people did accept Zheng Guo's suggestion, they chose to build the earliest large-scale water conservancy project in China, which took more than ten years to complete.

During the    period, the Qin people devoted all their power to the country. At that time, the cost was huge, labor, material resources, and land were all consumed hugely, which indeed provided the Han people with a breathing space.

   On the other hand, the construction of the Zhengguo Canal further strengthened the Qin state.

  The Zhengguo Canal, which stretches for more than 300 miles, was completed, which led the Jingshui from the west to the Luoshui in the east, turning the barren land that was once water-deficient into fertile fields that could be irrigated, and at the same time reducing the flooding on both sides of the Jingshui.

The existence of    made the Guanzhong area become a fertile plain for thousands of miles from now on, and it also became the main grain producing area of ​​Qin State at that time, laying a solid foundation for Qin to unify the six countries.

   Qin State then swept away Handi and took the first step to unify the six kingdoms.

  The construction of the Zhengguo Canal allowed the Qin people to gain 10,000 hectares of fertile land, and each mu of land could collect an extra hour of grain.

  According to the measurement unit of Qin at that time, one bell is ten kettles, one kettle is equivalent to four zones, one zone is equivalent to four beans, and one bean is equivalent to four liters.

   That is to say, the yield of one mu of land is 640 liters.

   You must know that at that time, the average yield per mu of land was only about 100 liters, which was more than six times higher. Under the fertile fields, the grain output would be quite an astonishing figure.

   Looking at the world, there is almost no place to compare.

  Sufficient grain production, huge material reserves, and Guanzhong is no longer trapped by drought and floods, no doubt that Daqin has no worries.

   At this time, when Han Yi and Zheng Guo were discussing in a low voice in the car, and after a few words, there were Han people deployed next to the frame, who came to inform and said that Qin Chu had a request.

  Han Yi suppressed his voice and said, "Sir, let's go, I am here to wait for the good news from Mr.

  Zheng Guo leaned over and took a bow. After getting off the car, he adjusted his clothes and walked into the Prince's Mansion with his head held high.

   He followed the inner attendant who led the way, and walked all the way, but he was surprised by the layout and luxurious style of the Crown Prince's Mansion.

  The Korean national strength is declining, and in comparison, it is much more shabby.

   As Zheng Guo moved forward, his thoughts fluctuated, and he felt inexplicably carrying a heavy burden on his shoulders.

   He was walking all the way in the Prince's Mansion, when he suddenly heard the sound of silk and bamboo wind music coming from the front. The tune was beautiful, and a woman's voice was singing in a cappella.

   After a while, Zheng Guo felt his eyes light up, and he had arrived at the main hall of the Prince's Mansion.

   I saw a young man in a black robe, with a stern face and a calm look, sitting as the chief of the hall.

   There are several people sitting around behind him, and at first glance they are guards.

  The scene in the hall was very lively. More than a dozen beautiful dancers from the Crown Prince's Mansion were dancing. The leading woman was wearing a dark dress and a colorful dress.

When    Zheng Guo came in, the woman was singing:

   "Sizhao Kongfu, with six bridles in hand. Gong's Meizi, from the public to hunting..."

   The singing is gentle and rhythmic.

   Zhao Huaizhong was the chief and looked at Yan Huansha, who was singing. This girl knew that he wanted to listen to the tune, dress up, sing with all her might, and sing with all her might. It was really beautiful.

   Zhao Huaizhong clapped his hands lightly and raised the corners of his mouth.

   Yan Huansha, who had just finished singing, looked at her with a charming look, her delicate face was slightly flushed, and when she peeked at Zhao Huaizhong, she was enchanting.

   Seeing Zheng Guo walk in, Zhao Huaizhong slowly got up: "I heard Mr. Zheng's name earlier, and I can finally see you today."

   Zheng Guo was a little confused. In the eyes of Qin people, the status of Han people was declining. He was just a plumber. Unexpectedly, as soon as he came in, the prince stood up and greeted him politely.

   Zhao Huaizhong waved the dancer away.

   And Zheng Guo entered the table with a puzzled look, and sat down in the middle of Zhao Huai.

   He was thinking about what to say, and Zhao Huaizhong had already taken the initiative to ask, "What is the purpose of your visit, sir?"

   Zheng Guo thought about it, and then said the lines that Han Yi designed in advance:

   "I'm here to visit the prince privately. I really have something to tell."

   Zhao Huaizhong couldn't see the change in expression on his face, but looking at Zheng Guo's eyes always gave Zheng Guo an illusion. The prince's eyes seemed to be able to reach people's hearts, and he knew what he was going to say.

   Zheng Guo was deterred by Zhao Huaizhong's aura, and suppressed the fluctuations in his heart before saying:

   "As far as I know, there is a shortage of fertile plains in Qin, so grain production is not rich, which greatly limits the development of Da Qin."

   Zhao Huaizhong said with a smile: "Sir, you must have a good plan before coming to the door, please speak bluntly."

   Zheng Guo was stunned. This is what he was going to say next. He used his previous words as a foreshadowing. He was about to offer a plan, but he was robbed by Zhao Huaizhong. He choked up before answering:

   "The State of Zheng does have a strategy to dedicate to the prince. If my strategy can be implemented, it can relieve the Qin people's fear of lack of food and make Qin stronger."

Zhao Huaizhong gave birth to the teasing thought of stealing the show, and continued: "Sir, wait a minute, let me guess, combined with Mr.'s expertise in water conservancy, I guess Mr.'s plan must start with water conservancy, but I want to persuade me to work in Daqin. Build water conservancy, and get more fertile land, so as to enrich the country and strengthen the army?"

   Zheng Guo was stunned.

  What's the matter?

   Before he opened his mouth, the prince said what he wanted to say again.

   Zheng Guo held back for a long time, and spit out two words: "Exactly."

   He gathered his thoughts: "The prince is a great talent, what Zheng Guo wants to say is the construction of water conservancy, which can solve the shortage of food in Qin."

   Zhao Huaizhong: "I would like to hear the details."

   Zheng Guo's spirit was slightly refreshed, and he immediately began to explain in detail the benefits and specific measures of building water conservancy.

   About half an hour later, Zheng Guo looked a little dizzy when he came out of the Prince's Mansion.

   After he came out, he looked back at the Prince's Mansion behind him.

   To meet with Zhao Huaizhong, the Crown Prince of Qin tonight, he always felt that something was not right.

  Returning to the car, Yuhou Han Yi, who had been waiting in the car and did not dare to show his face, couldn't wait to ask: "Why did Gong Zheng come out so quickly, how is the situation?

  Could Qin Chu ever agree to the plan offered by Mr. "

   Ask for a ticket~
