Daqin: I was overheard by Zulong

Chapter 41 Cancellation of Curfew

Chapter 41 Cancellation of Curfew
Before leaving, Yingzheng couldn't help but said to Zhao Yi: "Yi'er, now you are the general of chariots and riders, and at the same time, you are also in charge of the affairs. When you are free, go to the palace to talk with me more often. Don't wait for me every day." Stay in the mansion."

"Yes yes yes, I would like to obey my father's instruction!" Zhao Yi now only wanted to let Ying Zheng leave quickly, and agreed without hesitation.

Ying Zheng frowned. He knew very well that Zhao Yi was trying to deal with him, but he had no choice but to quickly leave the Cavalry General's Mansion and get on the imperial chariot.

Zhang Cang watched Yingzheng Yujia leave, and couldn't help but persuade Zhao Yi, "Your Majesty Ninth Prince, His Majesty's favor for you can be said to be the number one in the Great Qin Dynasty, but I heard that His Majesty is in front of Young Master Fusu and Young Master Hu Hai. I have never been so good-tempered in front of you."

Hearing this, Zhao Yi rolled his eyes, "Master Zhang, hurry up on the Tudou matter, and do what I told you earlier, the disaster in Sichuan waits for no one, go get busy if you have nothing to do, I won't keep you .”

"Yes, yes, the minister is leaving!" Hearing what Zhao Yi said, Zhang Cang thought that Zhao Yi was devoted to the public, so he hurriedly left.

Zhao Yi, who finally saw off Ying Zheng and Zhang Cang, drove back to Zhaozhuang the next moment and began to enjoy his comfortable time.

On the other side, in the palace hall, Zhao Gao, Li Si and other ministers all had anxious expressions on their faces. Seeing Ying Zheng walking calmly into the hall, Li Si led the ministers to greet him.

"Your Majesty, because I'm waiting to buy the locusts, I'm afraid there will be big troubles in the future!"

"Oh?" Ying Zheng pretended to be puzzled, returned to the dragon chair and sat down, and then Shi Shiran asked, "What's the big trouble?"

"Your Majesty, this matter involves your next deployment to deal with the locust plague. Please don't worry if I tell you!" Feng Quji said solemnly.

Hearing this, Ying Zheng laughed cheerfully and said, "Okay, you guys hurry up and say it, I'm not someone who hasn't experienced storms, so hurry up and say it!"

"Your Majesty, I have recently purchased tens of thousands of locusts. Now these locusts have been made into food, but there are not so many people eating them. What should I do!" Li Si looked anxious.

In Xianyang City, his family has a big business. Nearly [-]% of the acquisition of Locust was completed by his family. The result was the situation in front of him, which Li Si did not expect, so one head suddenly became two big ones.

"Could it be that the people don't like eating locusts?" Ying Zheng asked deliberately.

"No." Li Si quickly explained: "It's not that people don't like to eat it, but the dishes made with locusts now only appear in Xianyang restaurants. Ordinary people don't have the ability to eat locusts in restaurants for three meals a day, so... "

"In this case, don't just sell locusts in restaurants." Ying Zheng interrupted Li Si directly, "find a way to set up street vendors and sell them around the city, so that barbecue locusts can flow into the homes of ordinary people. Can it solve the current predicament?"

As soon as Ying Zheng said this, Li Si and Feng Quji's eyes lit up. This idea seemed to work.

The cost of locusts in restaurants is too high for ordinary people to afford, but if there are vendors along the street, the cost will be reduced virtually, and ordinary people can afford it, so the speed of consuming locusts can be accelerated.

"Your Majesty is wise, I surrender to you!" Zhao Gao quickly figured out the key and immediately offered the rainbow fart.

Ying Zheng's idea also solved Zhao Gao's big trouble. Besides Li Si, Zhao Gao also spent a lot of effort on the locusts this time. He wanted to make a lot of money, but he almost lost money. Can bring him back to life.

The ministers complimented each other, but Ying Zheng waved his hands again and again, and continued: "Also, I plan to cancel the curfew."

"Ah?" Hearing this, the officials who were just overjoyed suddenly changed their expressions.

Cancel the curfew, did you hear me right, Daqin has been implementing a curfew since the founding of the country, and now His Majesty suddenly said it would be cancelled, why is that?

"The curfew was originally a measure that had to be implemented due to domestic instability." Ying Zheng said solemnly: "But now that our Qin Dynasty has wiped out Liuhe, and Xianyang is the capital of the country, why do we still need to implement a curfew?"

"Nowadays, everything is waiting to be renovated. I think we should put people's livelihood first and cancel the curfew, which will make it easier for the princes to sell locusts. However, the city defense camp needs to strengthen its defenses. If the outside is loose and the inside is tight, there will be no trouble."

Hearing that Ying Zheng took everything into consideration, Li Si and Feng Quji thought about it carefully, and they all agreed.

"Your Majesty is wise, the curfew policy can indeed be lifted, so that people's hearts can be stabilized in this way, it is His Majesty's wisdom!"

Feng Quji also echoed: "If the curfew policy is lifted, it will definitely promote the commerce in the city, which will also increase taxes, which will serve multiple purposes!"

"Hahaha..." Ying Zheng clapped his hands and laughed, "That's what I thought. It seems that the right minister and I thought about it together."

Zhao Gao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and after a little calculation, he realized that it was indeed beneficial to him, so he quickly complimented him.

"The curfew has been lifted, and all counties and counties in the Qin Dynasty have followed suit. This will invisibly promote the prosperity of business across the country. Your Majesty's move is really brilliant. I admire you!"

Ying Zheng was so impressed by the praise, he waved his hand after thinking about it and said: "This is not my first initiative, but I heard that strange person mention it before. After thinking about it, I thought that the night market business has great potential, and I just used it now."

Is it the method of that strange man again?The ministers were shocked when they heard the words, and kept the 'night business' firmly in mind.

When he left the palace, Li Si couldn't help asking the ministers around him.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhao, tell me, who is that strange person behind His Majesty? Why has His Majesty never mentioned it?"

Feng Quji was convinced, "It's true. Every time I hear His Majesty mention the strange schemes of this strange man, my eyes light up, and I feel like he's coming from a miracle."

"Haha... Your lords are showing their pictures." Zhao Gao shook his head and smiled, "Can't the lords see it? Your Majesty is probably reminding us to give us a sense of urgency. Don't the lords not think about it?" But, is this what His Majesty meant?"

"Master Zhao, what you mean is..." Li Si reacted the fastest after all. He thought for a moment and then reacted, his eyes full of panic.

"The Six Kingdoms have been decided for the first time. Your Majesty doesn't want you all to rest on your laurels. The strange person your Majesty talks about is probably a reminder to everyone, including the Zajia family!" Zhao Gao said with a clear look on his face.

When Feng Quji and other ministers heard what Zhao Gao said, they were all suddenly at a loss.

After Qin conquered the Six Kingdoms, the ministers were indeed a little slack to a certain extent. No one expected that Ying Zheng would use this method to remind everyone that they must seek success in their positions, or they would be replaced sooner or later .

Thinking about it this way, originally Li Si planned to draft the decree on the second day and hand it over to Zhao Gao to issue it. He couldn't bear it now, so he hurriedly pulled Zhao Gao to draw up the decree and handed it to Zhao Gao to bring it back to Yingzheng to seal it. Tell the world immediately.

The people of Xianyang City were overjoyed when they heard that His Majesty the Emperor had lifted the curfew.
