Qin Shi Big Boss

Chapter 110
"The price will not be very expensive, because paper is such a thing that the output is extremely high." Ying Zheng said lightly.

"In this case, those poor ordinary people, I don't know if they can afford it?" Xue Nu has a benevolent heart.

"Yes, but we have to wait for the paper to be widespread. It will take a few months and it should be spread throughout the seven countries." Ying Zheng said with a smile.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door and respectfully said: "Prince, there are two people here who want to see you. They say they are from the farm family. One is called Zhu's family and the other is called Situ Wanli. They seem to be here for the sweet potato business." .”

"The Zhu family and Situ Wanli, the slave family has also heard of them. Their status in the farm is not low. This time, they must want the prince's sweet potato seeds." Xue Nu said softly. Unilaterally the same, no longer the cool demeanor of the past.

"Don't worry! Judging from the personalities of the two of them, they probably wouldn't ask me forcibly. If they do, the prince will have to do some things that shouldn't be done." A killing intent flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, Then he got up and asked Xuenv to help him put on his clothes.

Even the Eastern Emperor Taiyi would kneel down when he saw Ying Zheng, so what did the Zhu family and Situ Wanli care about?
After Yingzheng left, Xuenv put on her clothes and regained her calm demeanor, like a fairy who would not eat the flames.

Ying Zheng arrived in the middle of the hall and asked the servants to bring Situ Wanli and Zhu's family inside.

After Tian Yan heard the news early in the morning, he hid himself, concealed his smell, and thought: "These two people should come here to ask for sweet potato seeds, but it's impossible at all, so it's better to hide as usual."

Not long after, two middle-aged men in coarse clothes came in the middle of the hall of the Prince's Mansion.

"Caomin has seen the prince." The Zhu family and Situ Wanli all saluted, not daring to lose their courtesy, which made Yingzheng feel a little better.

"What are you doing here?" Ying Zheng asked deliberately, and then said that the Zhu family and Situ Wanli were sitting down.

"I came to the prince's mansion today for the sake of the sweet potato seeds. I dare not lie to the prince. I ate dried sweet potatoes today and thought it was very good, so I want to ask for some sweet potato seeds." Situ Wanli said, cupping his hands.

Ying Zheng thought it was a bit ridiculous. This guy seemed upright, but he was actually quite knowledgeable. He said in a deep voice, "Sweet potato seeds are very important treasures of the Qin State. Don't give them to others casually. If the two of you are doing it for this matter, you should hurry up." Let's go home!"

"Actually, these sweet potato seeds are not for ourselves, but for the people of the world. It is said that the yield of sweet potato seeds in the Prince's Mansion can reach 150 shi. If it can be promoted, people across the country will no longer have to endure hunger. ." The Zhu family glared at Situ Wanli and simply got to the point.

Situ Wanli smiled awkwardly, and cupped his hands and said: "As the Zhu family said, we are here today to save the common people of the world and save the common people from the fire and water. I hope the prince can generously donate money and help each other."

"No! These sweet potatoes may seem simple, but they are the basis of our Qin people's livelihood and the most important weapon of the country. They can be taken out casually. Stop talking and leave as soon as possible!" Ying Zheng issued an order to expel guests, but he But he knew that with the nature of the Zhu family, they would definitely not leave like this.

Sure enough, the Zhu family stood up, pointed at Yingzheng and said, "Prince, do you really want to let go of the common people all over the world? Do you have the heart to watch them gnaw on tree bark and eat Avalokitesvara soil everywhere when they have nothing to eat? Even some of them have already Yizi and eat."

"If the prince's sweet potatoes can be promoted, they will be able to save them. Although they will be full for no reason, nothing like that will happen again. If the prince is willing, then the people all over the country will respect you and worship you. , I admire you, the prince has done the three emperors a favor." Situ Wanli stood up, his voice generous.

"I refuse your request. This is impossible." Ying Zheng said with a chuckle.

"Prince, I beg you, I beg you, spread charity and spread the sweet potato seeds! I kneel down for you, and you push the sweet potato seeds. .” The Zhu family simply knelt down.

"Zhu Jia, you, Naihe, get up quickly." Situ Wanli said displeased and pulled Zhu Jia, but the latter refused to get up.

"This method is of no use to me. If you don't leave, I will ask someone to drive you away." Ying Zheng did not expect that during the Warring States Period, there would be people with the same stubbornness as Hai Rui, who were both good-looking and ridiculous.

"Prince, is it really not possible? Even just a little bit of seed is enough to make the people all over the country receive your kindness and make all the people treat you like a father." The Zhu family begged.

Situ Wanli couldn't move Zhu Jia, so he also knelt down and said: "Prince, I also kneel down for you. I hope you can give some sweet potato seeds so that we can save the hungry people. As long as you nod, That's it."

"Hey! It's not that I don't give it to you, but after I give it to you, you won't be able to save the common people of the whole country, but will harm the common people of the whole country." Ying Zheng said with a sigh, it seems that he has to follow the two guys to explain.

"Impossible, as long as you give it to us, the common people will have food to eat and will not go hungry, but it may harm the common people of the whole world. Prince, don't tease us and say such nonsense to deal with it." The Zhu family Do not trust Road.

"Obviously it's a help, but it may be a harm. The two have completely different meanings." Situ Wanli said.

"Forget it, you will know after hearing the explanation first." Ying Zheng said lightly.

Although what Yingzheng said had an appealing force, which made the Zhu family instinctively trust him, he objected: "Prince, we are also masters. Sweet potato seeds are the great weapon of Qin. They are the most important thing to Qin, and we know that You don't want to give it to us, but it's too despicable to use this kind of excuse."

"Although we are older, we are not ignorant, and we are very discerning. We will not believe such nonsense." Situ Wanli waved his hand and said, thinking that Ying Zheng was going too far, and even fabricated such a reason to punish them.

"I'm not lying to you, I'm just telling the truth." Ying Zheng said lightly. Because the explanations are more complicated, he didn't want to waste his time. One is dead-brained, so I can only give them an explanation.

"To tell you the truth, it's not for their own good to leave the common people aside and make them suffer. This kind of reason is bullshit. Even if you cheat a three-year-old child, they won't be cheated." Zhu's family Some said angrily.

"Not to spread the sweet potato seeds, although we have selfish intentions, we understand it, so I beg you, but you use this reason to say that you don't distribute the sweet potato seeds to the whole country, it is to help the common people, I think it is inappropriate." Situ Wanli said something serious.

"Well, let me ask you, what is benevolence and righteousness?" Ying Zheng said with a chuckle.

"The so-called benevolence and righteousness means that people love each other, help each other, and improve each other. This is a kind of benevolence and righteousness." Zhu Jiashu opened his mouth.

"In our farming family's view, if the common people can eat enough and don't suffer from hunger, they won't fall into so many conflicts. This is benevolence and righteousness. If the prince can spread the sweet potato seeds, then it will be It's great benevolence and righteousness." In Situ Wanli's words, there was a hint of teasing Ying Zheng.

Now Yingzheng, if you don't spread the sweet potato seeds, it is not benevolence and righteousness, but injustice.

"The admonition of the farm family is that the land marshes all things, Shennong will not die, and the general will be noble. It is better to have a seed and feed oneself, which is to let benevolence and righteousness." The Zhu family's admonitions for the farm family are kept in mind, from the time he first entered the farm family When the time is right, recite it first.

"I think that although you keep talking about benevolence and righteousness, it is not true benevolence and righteousness. What you call benevolence and righteousness is just for your own satisfaction, not for the sake of the people." Ying Zheng laughed loudly, these two people were actually better than the Confucian ones. Scholars are much more boring.

"Prince, you have humiliated us many times, our peasant family, and our benevolence. You really don't take us seriously." The Zhu family blushed and immediately stood up.

"When the man got angry, blood spattered three steps. Prince, if you don't give a reasonable explanation, I, Situ Wanli, will definitely fight to the death." Situ Wanli was even more angry, and his whole body trembled violently.

Due to the debate in the hall, the masters hidden in the dark were discovered one after another.Together with Ji Yanran, Dongjun Feiyan held weapons and looked at Situ Wanli across his eyes, and if he made the slightest movement, he would immediately drop his hands.

Situ Wanli only dared to have a gust of cold wind hit him, and a white sword blade lay across his neck.

Short and long Xuanjian.

Even though the Zhu family and Situ Wanli have high status and extraordinary strength, seeing so many top masters excavating at the same time, they can't help but feel chills down their backs.

The Zhu family thought in their hearts: "I didn't expect the people around Ying Zheng to be so sharp. Fortunately, no one was found to steal the sweet potatoes. Otherwise, the loss would be extremely heavy."

"Let's all go down! Don't be nervous, they just have a louder voice." Ying Zheng said calmly, waved his hands, everyone understood, and immediately disappeared in the middle of the hall.

"Let me ask you again, if there are continuous disputes and frequent wars in the world today, and the common people are in the midst of dire straits, what is the reason?" Ying Zheng asked lightly.

Situ Wanli didn't dare to lose his temper, and stood aside obediently.

The Zhu family replied: "That's because I have selfish desires, and the king has selfish desires, driving the common people to be soldiers and attacking the city everywhere, but only for their own property. Ministers also have selfish desires, so they continue to fight among themselves, trying to usurp more With high power and prosperity, the common people also have selfish desires. Neighbors continue to fight, and due to wars, the enmity between countries are all unlimited selfish desires. Only by letting go of selfish desires can the world truly be at peace .”

Situ Wanli regained his composure, his mood recovered, and he said loudly: "The disputes in the world are due to some people's own selfish desires, and now the prince is for his own selfish desires of the Qin State, regardless of the fate of the world."

"Then do your farmers have selfish desires?" Ying Zheng continued to ask, his voice was lukewarm, unaffected by just now.

"Young people from the peasant family..." Situ Wanli was speechless again. If he replied with selfish desires, wouldn't it mean that the young people of the peasant family are the same as other people? It would be unreasonable to reply with no selfish desires.

"Although the children of the peasant family have selfish desires, they may have common goals in front of the people of the world. Therefore, from the perspective of the entire peasant family, the peasant family has no selfish desires." The Zhu family cleverly argued that the peasant family and the peasant family's children Cut it apart.

"Your farmer's precepts are your goals, and you have no selfish desires." Ying Zheng said with a chuckle.

"Of course, the teachings of our farmers are inherited from the ancient Shennong family. They are headed by them, but they may have selfish desires. This teaching is the pursuit of farmers, and it is also the reason why people all over the world resolve disputes." The Zhu family said matter-of-factly.

"Prince, if you only ask these silly questions, don't waste your time. You don't care about the people of the world, you don't care about the common people, you can simply tell us that there is no point in making so many rules." Situ Wanli couldn't bear it again, but He was held down by the Zhu family.

One is that the Zhu family feels hopeful that they can persuade Yingzheng to hand over the sweet potato seeds, and the other is that they are afraid that Situ Wanli will be fooled, provoking Yingzheng's fury and attracting many experts, and the two of them may be killed.

"The precept of your farm is that the land marshes all things, Shennong is immortal, generals and nobles, rather have a seed, and feed yourself, that is to let benevolence and justice." Ying Zheng said unhurriedly.

"That's right!" The Zhu family and Situ Wanli nodded and said, but they were tongue-tied. Unexpectedly, Ying Zheng could remember it after just listening to it once.

"General and noble, I'd rather be kind. I'm talking about ordinary common people. If you work hard enough, you can become a general and noble. My explanation is correct!" Ying Zheng continued to ask.

"That's right!" Zhu Jia nodded, this understanding was accurate.

"Isn't this sentence the greatest selfish desire? Isn't it the most terrifying selfish desire for everyone to hope that they can become generals and nobles?" Ying Zheng asked repeatedly, and the Zhu family and Situ Wanli listened After that, his expression changed drastically.

Although these words are simple, to the ears of the Zhu family and Situ Wanli, they are thought-provoking and seem to be the words of a wise man.

"I am too stubborn. I only think about whether the people have food to eat, and forget about other things. Now it seems that even if the sweet potato seeds are evacuated, the country is still complicated and the fighting continues, and it is still difficult for the people to get rid of it." It is a pity that the belief collapsed and suddenly dried up a lot.

"People, although they are the spirits of all things, are not gods. They have selfish desires. I have selfish desires, the Zhu family has selfish desires, the peasant family has selfish desires, and the whole world has their own selfish desires. There has never been a person without selfish desires, only God , but there is no god in the world." Situ Wanli said with a sigh.

"Don't be discouraged. It is precisely because of these selfish desires that human beings will continue to progress. It is precisely because they are always dissatisfied and full of greed that there will be so much progress. The same is true for your farm. Only when you work together for the great cause of the farm will there be agriculture. The huge progress in the world has improved a large number of noble crops." Ying Zheng said lightly.

"Selfish desires, selfish desires, selfish desires for success, selfish desires for failure, since sweet potatoes can't save the world, what can save the people of the world? The common people's wives are separated, and children are eaten. It is really painful." A heart of charity.

"It makes people feel so useless to wait to die like this. Do we have to abandon the long-standing pursuit of the peasant family?" Situ Wanli said angrily.

"If you want to make the world peaceful, the best way is to change the seven countries into one country. Our Qin country is perfect. After reunification, our Qin country will naturally promote sweet potato seeds vigorously. The people of other countries are nothing more than It is a temporary pain, but when Qin is unified, they will be able to eat sweet potato seeds, otherwise, wars in various countries will continue even if sweet potato seeds are given to them," Ying Zheng said slowly.

However, Situ Wanli caught the light of day, and quickly said: "The turmoil in the world is due to the struggle between countries. If they are unified, there will not be so many conflicts. It is already because we think that Qin is a violent country. Qin, now it seems that Qin's actions are the correct approach."

"The Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty is just the evaluation of our Great Qin by the six countries. We Qin people never think that we are a Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty." Ying Zheng said indifferently, the Tyranny of the Qin Dynasty is just those who are afraid of Qin and have no way to defeat Qin. country, just to discredit Qin.

The Zhu family was silent for a long time before nodding and discussing Ying Zheng's explanation. Originally, he thought that the Qin State was a tyrant and Ying Zheng was also a tyrant, but now it seems that it is very profound and has a different meaning.

"Due to the growth of the country's power, the people of Qin are living and working in peace and contentment, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and trade is prosperous. Xianyang is now the largest city in the Seven Kingdoms. And under the constraints of Qin's laws, the selfish desires of the people are prohibited." Situ Wanli stayed in Qin for a long time After a long period of time, I have a clear and deep understanding.

"However, Qin State's law is too strict. If it continues to be like this, it may have a contradictory effect." The Zhu family hit the nail on the head. Although they are from a farming family, they also have some understanding of the legalist thinking.

"Although it is strict, it is suitable for current use. The more chaotic the time, the more strict laws are needed. Otherwise, order will not be maintained at all." Ying Zheng said lightly.

"Confirmed." Situ Wanli and the Zhu family both nodded, expressing peace.

"Do you understand what I mean?" Ying Zheng asked softly.

"Obviously, we are too stubborn and have forgotten some other things. If we promote the sweet potatoes, we will not be able to bring advantages to Qin, and the time of conflict will be prolonged." The Zhu family nodded in agreement.

"We originally thought that promoting sweet potato seeds would help the people so that they would no longer suffer from hunger, but we did not expect that it would actually harm them. We were too biased and did not consider it comprehensively." Situ Wanli was originally the most angry, but now he recognized Ying Zheng even more than the Zhu family.

This person is serious and sharp, with flaws in rules and regulations, and sees through quality, but they are a little determined, boasting about acquiring treasures, which is really ridiculous.

"Of course I don't give you sweet potatoes, but I can give you another thing. The name of this thing is called potatoes, and the yield is higher than sweet potatoes." Ying Zheng took out a bag of things, all with English names, and cursed at the system. Evil meeting.

But in the eyes of the Zhu family and Situ Wanli, there is a lot of mystery. These words seem to be the same as the runes of Taoism or Yin-Yang School, a little fresh.

"Do you really want to give it to us? Are you not afraid that we will get these potatoes out and spread them to other countries? If so, your hope of shutting down the sweet potato seeds will be lost." The Zhu family asked intentionally.

"Spread the potatoes, and other countries can fight against Qin in terms of food. Prince, are you sure you want to give it to us? We won't guarantee that these potatoes will be well protected." Situ Wanli fumbled.

"Isn't it obvious that you are asking me this instead of taking away the potato seeds? Your heart is on the common people, and because of the common people, you come to me to ask for sweet potato seeds. But you know now that sweet potatoes Seeds can't help the common people, so if you give up taking sweet potato seeds, why would you take common people's seeds?" Ying Zheng said with a chuckle.

"The prince is right, we won't take these potato seeds." Situ Wanli bowed his hands and saluted.

"Prince, please collect these potatoes! There is no need to take them out to test us, we will not collect these sweet potato seeds. I just hope that when the prince unifies the seven kingdoms, he can kill a few people less and use his meritorious deeds. The modification is not so strict, so the Zhu family is already very satisfied when they come here today." The Zhu family has a heart to save the world.

"Actually, I'm not trying to test you, what I mean is, let you help me plant potato seeds and improve the decision-making, just like the few farm students who came last time, help me plant sweet potatoes." Ying Zheng shook his head. Shaking the potato seeds, he said calmly: "People's hearts are unpredictable, but one thing is the same. I long for food and clothing, and hope to live and work in peace and contentment. I want to unify the six countries. This is selfish desire, but it is also the greatest benevolence and righteousness of time. "

"This..." Zhu Jiayi hesitated. He really didn't like breeding and killing. Although he agreed with Yingzheng's statement just now, he still couldn't bear it. to attack other countries.

In this way, the Zhu family killed a large number of people by accident. Although he didn't do it himself, he still cared very much.

"Let me think about it, it's hard to make a decision on this matter." The Zhu family said mildly, frowning, lost in thought.

"The crown prince wants to agree with our farm family?" Situ Wanli said.

"Farmers, apart from the idea of ​​​​saving the world through farming, are still the most advanced in other aspects, especially in planting. I need talents in this area, and Qin will also favor them. I don't know you. What do you mean?" Ying Zheng asked clearly.

Hearing that Yinong's idea of ​​saving the world was ridiculous, the Zhu family couldn't help but smiled wryly, and sighed: "If I'm the only one who enters the Qin Kingdom, I can consider it, but it's hard to say about other peasant descendants. The truth is, many peasant descendants In my eyes, Qin has a bad reputation."

"The current peasant hero is Tian Guang. He has never been optimistic about Qin, especially after the Battle of Changping. He thinks that Qin is a barbarian, a country of tigers and wolves. He will not negotiate anything, and the peasants will enter Qin. "Situ Wanli shook his head.

"Now the state of Qin needs talents in this field. In particular, it has its own set of methods for dealing with weather and planting. I am very optimistic about you. Our national policy of Qin is based on agriculture. I don't need any heroes. What I need Farmers who can bend down to plow the fields need their records and experience, how to plow the land, how to plant seedlings, how to sow, how to deworm, and how to irrigate different land." Ying Zheng continued.

The last sweet potato incident, thanks to the farmer's help, had a yield of 150 shi, otherwise, it might have been only about sixty or seventy.

After being cultivated by the descendants of these farmers, the output has doubled, which is enough to show its extraordinary.

"The prince is right. Our farm family is indeed very good at agriculture. Among the hundreds of scholars, there are not many that can be on the same level as us." The Zhu family said softly, and their tone eased a little.
