Daqin: Reign in the world

Qu Zheng and Tao Tong looked at each other, a little unsure of the emperor’s attitude.

Just now, when the emperor heard about the Spartan mercenaries, he showed a kind of surprise. At least it means that the emperor had heard of the Spartan mercenaries.

Being able to be heard by the Great Qin Emperor, and still have an impression, at least shows that this mercenary army is indeed not bad.

But why didn’t the emperor give any special instructions in the end? So let them go to Dongdu County to dig a river channel and do coolies?

What is the meaning of this?

Qu Zheng and Tao Tong couldn’t figure it out.

In the end, I had to think that these Spartan mercenaries were actually of no use to Daqin. It’s only suitable for coolies.

The emperor still had an instruction in the end, “Let them go to Dongdu County and dig the river.”

As long as it was instructed by the emperor himself, it was an important matter.

After Qu Zheng and Tao Tong left the palace, they still did not dare to slack, and immediately went to Li Jue, Shangshu of the Ministry of Work, to implement this matter first.

The river projects in Daliang County and Dongdu County are too large. As soon as it was determined, it was already known by countless sources.

In the past few days, people who have contracted various projects have entrusted them to visit Li Jue. It annoyed him.

For Li Jue, it doesn’t make much difference who entrusts the project to do. As long as you are willing to be serious and responsible, you can meet his requirements.

However, they were introduced by a lot of various acquaintances, and they were very worried. No matter who you choose, you will offend a large number of other people.

Knowing that Qu Zheng and Tao Tong came to visit in person, Li Jue really wanted to be ill.

But no, these two people are the heads of the Ministry of Commerce, and they are the red men in front of the emperor. Li Jue didn’t have the guts to throw his face at them.

No matter how irritable you are, you have to accompany the smiling face and go out to greet you.

“Li Shangshu, the family is prosperous!”

Qu Zheng teased Li Jue as soon as they met.

Li Jue smiled bitterly and sighed.

“I’d rather live in the mountains and no one asks, but these days are annoying me to death.” I plan to go to Daliang early tomorrow morning to survey the terrain and hide. ”

“Save, save. Hahaha…”

In fact, Li Jue’s irritability, how could Qu Zheng and Tao Tong not understand? The two of them also survived slowly like this.

At the beginning, he was in charge of the commercial department, and he had countless profitable businesses in his hands. Every day, all kinds of big businessmen revolve around them like a swarm of flies.

Fortunately, Qu Zheng and Tao Tong fought side by side. Unlike Li Jue, who is irritable, he doesn’t even have a person to speak.

“Don’t hide Li Shangshu, the two of us came to visit today, and what we did was also for the opening of the river channel by Daliang and Dongdu.”

“Huh…?”

Li Jue was unavoidable and forcibly led to this topic.

After listening to Qu Zheng’s detailed introduction, Li Jue was relieved.

This matter sounded like it had been assigned by the emperor.

This is a good thing, and there is no need to struggle anymore.

Externally, it can be said that the emperor appointed the Spartans to do it, which was able to gag everyone’s mouth.

“Qu Buzheng, where did this Spartan come from? Why did the emperor appoint them to do this big project? ”

Qu Zheng actually didn’t understand it very well in his heart, and he didn’t dare to speculate about the holy will.

He could only vaguely say to Li Jue: “The Spartans, I heard that they fled to the Ptolemaic dynasty. Now no one wants to take them in, so they want to come to our Daqin to find a job. The emperor probably also wanted to take them in. ”
