Daqin: Qin Shihuang can hear my heart

Chapter 4 The Flood of Jade Artifacts
The next day, Li Zhao was taken to the apse of Zhangtai Palace, where Qin Shihuang rested temporarily.

Li Zhao was very puzzled, how could he be brought to this place after he was named the eldest son's book boy? Shouldn't it be the eldest son's hall?But don't think too much about it.

"Xuan Li Zhao sees you!"

"Li Zhao greets His Majesty."

After Li Zhao came in, he knelt down and saluted, but unconsciously glanced at the hall from the corner of his eyes. He was shocked for a moment and thought: This is the place where Qin Shihuang worked. Xiang Yu will be cremated to ashes.

what?
Ying Zheng was very happy to be sitting in a high position, but when he heard such a heartfelt voice, his face was covered with black lines, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to himself:
What is this kid thinking about, who is Xiang Yu?Could it be that my Daqin really perished in three years?

Xiang Yu, whose surname is Xiang, is he a descendant of Xiang Yan?

"This is not the court, so don't be too polite, get up!" Ying Zhengqiang said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Li Zhao stood up.

At this time, a servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the eldest son is here!"

"Oh!" Ying Zheng gave a rare smile, "Come in."

Li Zhao's heart moved when he heard this: The eldest son Fusu, you are a celebrity!I don't know what it looks like?It should be as handsome as Qin Shihuang!

Ying Zheng smiled slightly. He liked to listen to this inner activity. Of course, his son was like him, so he must be handsome.

"But so what if he is handsome? Even if he is the eldest son, he cannot succeed to the throne."

what?
Ying Zheng's heart was shocked, and he wondered why this kid came again, how could the eldest son he was optimistic about not succeed to the throne?He spent a lot of time cultivating it.

Suddenly, he remembered what Li Zhao said yesterday, Qin Ershi was tyrannical, but Fusu did not seem like a tyrannical person, could it be said that Qin Ershi was not Fusu?

boom!
It's a big deal.

The heir he had painstakingly cultivated could not succeed to the throne?How can this be?
No, this kid must have made random predictions and couldn't count them.

Ying Zheng comforted himself.

"After being relegated to the north by Qin Shihuang, he was given death by Qin II, poor man!" At this moment, Li Zhao couldn't help expressing sympathy for Fusu who was about to show up.

But Ying Zheng's face turned pale when he heard this, and his heart was extremely desolate.

Qin Ershi is really not Fusu, so which of his sons will succeed to the throne, and who will give Fusu death?
No, it's absolutely not true. I'm all loyal, united and friendly. Infighting will never happen, and I will never allow such a thing to happen.

For sure, this kid is just guessing randomly.

hateful!

It took a long time for Ying Zheng to settle down.

At this time, a middle-aged man came in, dressed in a Confucian costume, behaved elegantly, and bowed respectfully.

"Sure enough, he is as handsome as his old man." Li Zhao admired Fusu in his heart.

After some courtesy, Fusu glanced at Li Zhao, slightly surprised, but quickly turned his head away.

"Father, my son has something to play."

Ying Zheng waved his hand, "Whether state affairs or family affairs, let's talk about it later, let me introduce someone to you first."

"This is Li Zhao, the bookboy I found for you."

Um!Fu Su took a serious look at Li Zhao, quite surprised, secretly thinking that his father personally found a book boy for him, which is rare!It is also certain that this kid must have something extraordinary.

Li Zhao quickly saluted Fusu.

"There is no need to be too polite!" Fusu waved his hand, then turned his head and said eagerly, "Father, this matter of my son is very important, you must decide."

Li Zhao secretly sighed, the eldest son is really pedantic, even though Qin Shihuang rejected him, he is still so persistent, isn't this trying to anger Qin Shihuang?
Sure enough, Ying Zheng lowered his face and looked extremely angry, but he still waved his hands and said, "Speak!"

"Two things, one family and one country."

Li Zhao also sighed when he heard it: Two things?Didn't Qin Shihuang already have an attack?It seems that when you become a book boy in the future, you must mention him well, otherwise you will definitely hurt yourself.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly when he heard Li Zhao's heartfelt thoughts, and secretly thought that Li Zhao was still eye-catching. In fact, his purpose of recruiting Li Zhao was exactly for this.

"Father, do you still remember the jade statues I mentioned to you before? I bought a large number of them on purpose to earn some subsidies for internal money, but recently the jade market is flooding, and the price of jade statues has plummeted. At this price ,we."

As he spoke, Fusu's voice became smaller and smaller.

Fusu was originally filial, facing the empty treasury and the shortage of funds in the royal family, he immediately relieved his father's worries, and he didn't know whose advice he ordered a large number of jade statues.

Maybe it's the celebrity effect!Some manufacturers saw that the big prince was aiming at the market, so they produced a large number of them, which led to a flood of jade articles even under the condition of suppressing business.

Fusu had mentioned this matter to Ying Zheng at the time, and it was still money from internal funds.

Ying Zheng frowned, and asked after a while, "What's your opinion?"

"My son believes that the jade statue in his hand should be sold immediately to stop the loss in time."

"Stop the loss in time?" Ying Zheng frowned deeper, and did not respond immediately, and his anger became more intense.

Li Zhao was very surprised when he heard that, in Daqin, which emphasizes agriculture and restrains business, there will also be flooding of the market, and the protagonist is still a stubborn prince.

It's a bit strange!

and many more!

Suddenly, Li Zhao seemed to think of something, squinted his eyes, tilted his head, and tried hard to find the memory of studying the history of Great Qin.

"At the end of the Qin Dynasty, there seemed to be some commercial incidents related to jade statues. By the way, the royal family bought a large number of jade statues at that time, which caused a flood of jade wares and caused the price of jade wares to depreciate sharply, to the point where no one cares about them."

"Hehe! Unexpectedly, it was Fusu who did it. It seems that he must have been instigated by someone."

"Instigated by someone?" Ying Zheng's face changed suddenly when he heard his heartfelt voice, and he gave Fusu a hard look.

"As for who instigated it, it is not difficult to guess. Before the Qin Dynasty suppressed business, commercial activities were extremely hot. The merchants made a lot of money, so that their status soared. The dignitaries realized that their status was threatened. The policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business.”

"Of course, the merchants are unwilling to be deprived of their vested interests, or the pedantic Fusu is favored by them, it is the fuse!"

what?
Hearing the analysis of Li Zhao's heart, Ying Zheng's scalp was numb, his expression was extremely tense for a while, and his anger grew stronger.

It is unreasonable that the Venerable Master used his son to oppose the national policy. This is definitely a conspiracy, against it, against it.

Ying Zheng was very violent in his heart.

However, this is not the time to care about this issue. What he cares about is his internal money, which is already very empty, and he spends almost all of it to buy jade statues. If he sells it at a loss, it will kill the royal family.

This is not the main thing, the main thing is, now that the market is flooded, can his jade statues still be sold?
