Chapter 139 Crossing Classes
  As soon as Ying Zheng's reward came out, all the people of Da Qin were in an uproar.

What they heard was that His Majesty promised in public that the person who turned in the blind box of potatoes and sweet potatoes would be given the title of Shao Shangzao and a thousand taels of gold.

As citizens of Da Qin, everyone naturally knows everything about military merit and titles.

There are a total of 20 levels of military merit titles in Da Qin, the highest being the 20th level title of Chehou.

You can imagine how high the title of the fifteenth-level young master is. He is a truly high-ranking and powerful person.

If promotion is based on military merit, it would be unimaginably difficult for an ordinary person to be promoted to the rank of junior high.

But now, as long as you hand in sweet potatoes or potatoes, you can reach the sky in one step and become a young master.

Countless people of Great Qin could only envy and hate at this moment, wondering why the one who grabbed the potatoes and sweet potatoes was not him, otherwise he could soar into the sky and transform from an ordinary person to a great noble.

After giving both kindness and power, Ying Zheng confidently waited for a response.

After a set of punch combinations, he didn't believe that everyone would not turn in the blind box.

Under the threat of the Three Tribes, no Daqin people dared to hide the blind box privately, so they could only hand it over obediently.

It is impossible to hide something like crop seeds privately.

After all, as soon as you plant it, you will have a bumper harvest, and the neighbors will notice it immediately.

And even if someone wants to hide it privately, they must consider whether they will be reported by their neighbors. No one will be tempted by the temptation of ten thousand taels of silver, especially ordinary people.

Besides, he didn't ask for it for nothing. As long as he turned it in, he would get all the rewards including titles and silver.

The fifteenth-level title of Shaoshangzao and one thousand taels of gold may seem like a lot of rewards, but considering the value of sweet potatoes and potatoes, no matter how generous the reward is, it is still worth it.

Because once potatoes and sweet potatoes can be promoted across the country, the value generated will be more than enough to rebuild the Qin Dynasty.

If you don't turn it in, the three clans will be killed.

If you turn it in, you will receive a title, a silver medal, glory, wealth, and everything.

In the end, he believed that the people of Great Qin would give the correct answer.

Daqin, Danyang County, Xujia Village.

Xu Erniu's mood swings were like a roller coaster, thrilling.

When he first heard His Majesty threatening everyone to hand over the blind box, he was so frightened that he almost peed his pants.

He is just an ordinary citizen who does his duty. If he doesn't hand over the blind box, his clan will be killed.

He had never seen such a world before, and he immediately chose to hand in the blind box.

After all, he had no other choice but to surrender.

All the villagers in Xujia Village knew that he had snatched the blind box of potatoes, so how dare he hide it privately.

Just when he was unwilling to miss out on glory and wealth, His Majesty's gift came.

As long as he turns in the potato blind box, he can obtain the rank of fifteenth-level nobleman and a thousand taels of gold.

The moment he heard the gift, he was so excited that his whole face turned red.

I was extremely excited the moment I grabbed the blind box, and I am even more excited now than before.

He was immersed in great joy and could not extricate himself, as if he had seen the scenery of being a noble master.

He didn't hesitate at this moment and handed over the potato very neatly.

After all, the huge difference between handing it over and hiding it privately is obvious. Any normal person would choose to hand over the potato and become a great nobleman.

The moment he grabbed the potatoes, he thought that his family of five would live a prosperous life.

No one would have imagined that his layout is still too small.

Now as long as he turns in the potatoes, he will get more than he imagined.

The fifteenth-level knighthood can be said to be the noblest among the nobles, and it is beyond words. Not to mention the dignity brought by his status as a junior, the benefits of being a junior made him crazy.

According to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, if a young master achieves the title of nobility, he will receive eighty-four acres of land and eighty-four houses, and he will also receive a salary of seven hundred and fifty dan of grain every year.

And if you choose to turn it in now, you can still get a reward of one thousand taels of gold from His Majesty.

When he thought of these benefits, he was so excited that he almost fainted.

Xu Erniu's family members were even more excited and overwhelmed with excitement. The expressions on their faces were extremely exaggerated and they laughed wildly.

They were ordinary people, and now they were about to become noble lords.

Anyone who encounters such a great change in life will be so ecstatic.

The surrounding villagers all had complicated expressions and felt very unhappy.

They grew up watching Xu Erniu, and they were extremely familiar with him. He used to be an ordinary person like everyone else, but now he has transformed and is about to become a young master.

This huge identity change was difficult for everyone to adapt to.

But there were also some clever villagers who hurried forward to congratulate him. Their attitude was extremely flattering, and they wished they could kneel on the ground on the spot.

But at this moment Xu Erniu has no time to pay attention to everyone, he still has to send a barrage and reply to His Majesty quickly!

He watched the live broadcast for several days and already had enough points to send a barrage.

Xu Erniu: @嬴正, Your Majesty, the common man is Xu Erniu from Xujia Village, Danyang County. The common man grabbed the blind potato box and now wants to offer it to His Majesty.

Ying Zheng waited for a while and finally got the potato he had longed for.

In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, someone must be sent to bring the potatoes back to Xianyang as soon as possible.

He thought about it seriously and found out that there were troops stationed ten kilometers away from Danyang County. If he hurried on, he could arrive there in less than a quarter of an hour.

Ying Zheng: Wang Yi listens, I now order you to rush to Xujiacun and bring the potatoes to me.

Wang Yi: Wei Chen takes the edict.

After giving orders to the garrison generals near Danyang County, Ying Zheng remembered Xu Erniu.

Ying Zheng: @ Xu Erniu, you are very good. When I see Tudou, I will immediately issue an order to reward you with the fifteenth-level title of Shaoshangzao and one thousand taels of gold.

Xu Erniu: The common people thank your Majesty for the reward.

Xu Erniu was also unambiguous. Even though His Majesty was not in front of him, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to express gratitude.

When the people of Da Qin saw this scene, they were all envious and jealous. From now on, Xu Erniu's deeds will be widely praised in Da Qin.

The other people in Da Qin who grabbed the blind box saw Xu Erniu taking the lead, and they also followed closely behind.

Wei Ya: @崴正, Your Majesty, I am the governor of Su County. I have grabbed the rice blind box and want to present it to Your Majesty.

Chen Boya: @崴正, Your Majesty, I am the magistrate of Sanyang County. I grabbed the sweet potato blind box and presented it to Your Majesty.

……

Surprised: @贴正, Your Majesty, the villagers of Dawu Village in Cao County are shocked. The common people have grabbed cotton.

……

Numerous names floated across the barrage, all of which were people who had grabbed the blind boxes and wanted to hand them in. Ying Zheng was very happy to see them.

He looked at Li Si, who was quickly recording information next to him, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then, according to the locations on the list, an order was issued directly in the live broadcast room, instructing the nearby garrison generals to immediately bring the blind box to Xianyang.

Ying Zheng: I will keep records of everyone who turns in the blind box. After verification, I will immediately issue a decree to reward everyone.

Hearing His Majesty's promise in public, the people of Daqin who handed over the blind box were all overjoyed.
