The Great Arcanist Who Traveled Through the World of American Variety Shows

Chapter 444: Mausoleum Town System, Recruiting Han Xin

After Richard finished explaining to the First Emperor, he began to look through the books collected by the Qin State. After the Qin State conquered the six kingdoms, it obtained a large number of treasures from the six kingdoms, including many books.

The largest number of them were books obtained from the Zhou royal family. The Zhou royal family lasted for 800 years. Although it began to weaken since the Spring and Autumn Period, the royal family has continued. A large number of books were collected in its storage room.

This included the books left by Laozi when he was the administrator of the storage room. There were not many books left by Laozi. Many of them were his insights from reading books. Only one book, "Tao Te Ching", was left in the storage room before he left.

This book of Tao Te Ching was written by Laozi after he read these books. But it is a pity that the book in his hand is not a complete book.

After all, hundreds of years have passed, and the Zhou emperor has been living a worse life for hundreds of years. He himself is not living well, so naturally he will not pay attention to the storage room, so many of the books in the storage room are damaged.

There are insects and rats, or they are damp and rotten. After all, it is very expensive to maintain bamboo slips.

Richard looked at the words on the Tao Te Ching. These words condensed a force of rules, which was Lao Tzu's Tao. He wrote this "Tao Te Ching" to understand the world and analyze the rules.

"Discover the power of rules. Analyzing."

"Current progress is 0.01%"

The words in front of Richard formed a strange rule, showing him the operation of the rules. This rule showed him the operation of the direct rules in a very strange way. It helped Richard understand the rules more simply.

This half volume of "Tao Te Ching" did not tell Richard new world laws, but it helped him analyze the world laws faster. I think Lao Tzu's understanding of the world rules should be in the second half.

"It's a pity that the Zhou emperor didn't keep these bamboo slips well." Richard sighed.

"Well, I am greedy. It is a great blessing to be able to see the original work of Daozu. I can't expect more. Nothing can be forced."

Richard looked at the half bamboo slip in his hand, while the other half was destroyed by insects.

Although this bamboo slip carries the rules in words, the bamboo slip itself is still an ordinary thing. I think Daozu should have done it on purpose. It is his good fortune that someone can see it, and it doesn't matter if someone can't see it. What's more, this kind of bamboo slip is envied by heaven as soon as it comes out. It is also because of Daozu that it can be preserved.

The Tao Te Ching on this bamboo slip is almost the same as the Tao Te Ching that Richard had read in his previous life. The so-called "Tao Te Ching" in his previous life was basically modified by later generations.

The classic "Tao Te Ching" has been tampered with too many times. The "Tao Te Ching" unearthed from Mawangdui is very different from the Tao Te Ching passed down to later generations.

In addition to the Tao Te Ching, there are many other books, and even some classics from the Shang Dynasty. There are very few classics in the Shang Dynasty, and most of them are incomplete, with extremely concise texts, and many of them are engraved on tortoise shells.

Richard took a brief look and found that most of these things were items for communicating with ghosts, gods, and ancestors.

In addition to these, Richard also found several books left by a large number of sages such as "Zhuangzi" and "Liezi". Richard scanned all of these books, and these books are also very different from those in later generations.

Almost all of the books circulated in later generations have been tampered with beyond recognition.

After Richard gave the first emperor the guiding technique, Ying Zheng would seriously exercise for an hour every day, and follow the advice to abstain from sex during this period. After all, he has been taking elixirs for many years and his body is seriously deficient.

Although Richard helped him remove the elixir poison, it takes time to recover.

Next, after stopping most of the national projects and no longer levying corvée labor, Ying Zheng began to take action against the nobles of the six countries.

Ying Zheng moved the rich people of the six countries into Guanzhong on the grounds that they were guarding the tombs of the previous kings, and officially opened the mausoleum town system.

The so-called rich households are also very simple. In this era, the rich are basically nobles. The common people have only a few dollars and may not even have a surname. And those who are rich are basically nobles of the six countries.

These nobles occupy a lot of land in various places, and there are many servants in their homes. Any family can pull out hundreds or thousands of people. Staying in the local area is completely an unstable factor.

In order to migrate these rich households, the first emperor directly sent a large army to garrison. 100,000 troops were stationed in the nearby prefectures and counties, and the nobles of the six countries around did not dare to resist at all.

The deterrent power of the 100,000 troops on the side silenced countless people, and the court's order to migrate the rich households in the world to Guanzhong was executed. A large number of nobles of the six countries who were originally domineering in the local area were forcibly moved to Guanzhong. These nobles were dejected, unwilling in their hearts and dared not object.

Going to the Hangu Pass in Guanzhong, the carriages and horses were like a long dragon for a while.

A large number of nobles of the six countries were moved to Guanzhong, and then the land they left behind was taken over by the court, part of which was distributed to the people, and the other part was distributed to the soldiers.

After the nobles of the six countries were forcibly relocated, the land was distributed, and the originally unstable places immediately settled down.

However, this does not mean that you can sit back and relax. You must also be careful that the nobles of the six countries will take risks and rebel on the spot. This is why Ying Zheng prepared 100,000 troops at the side when he migrated.

After the Qin State implemented the mausoleum system, many people were forced to migrate to Guanzhong. In addition to the nobles of the six countries, Richard also recommended some talents to Qin Shihuang. The first one was Han Xin.

At this time, Han Xin had just suffered the humiliation of being beaten under the crotch and was at the lowest point in his life. When Richard told the First Emperor, he told him to give him the greatest respect.

The First Emperor asked curiously why this was the case. Richard smiled and said, "Han Xin is a great military talent. If he can help, the world will be at peace."

"Is he really so talented?" The First Emperor was surprised.

"His talent is comparable to that of Wu'an Jun." Richard said with a smile.

Wu'an Jun Bai Qi, this military god who laid the foundation for Qin to unify the six countries, defeated Zhao in the Battle of Changping and completely cleared the way for Qin to go east.

If Han Xin could be comparable to Wu'an Jun, it can indeed be said that the world will be at peace.

Immediately, the First Emperor ordered the ministers to go to Huaiyin in person to invite Han Xin, and issued a death order to give him the gift of a duke.

So in Huaiyin County, this county that was not very prominent in the Qin Dynasty, the officials sent by the First Emperor found Han Xin, who was still unknown and even ridiculed at this time. Then, with an expression of disbelief on his face, he was invited to take up the position of Qin's doctor with the courtesy of a duke.

Han Xin stared blankly at the official who came to announce the decree. During this period, because he was forced by the butcher, he could only endure the humiliation of being kicked in the crotch, and was mocked and teased by the people around him. He could only hide at home to study the art of war, and he was determined to stand out and avenge his previous shame.

But just when he was studying the art of war, the court officials came to see him with the courtesy of a duke, and told him that His Majesty the First Emperor was recommended by the national teacher, knowing that he had great talent, and came to recruit him to serve as an official.

"Your Majesty knows that I have great talent, and came to recruit me as an official?" Han Xin said in disbelief.

"Yes." The official who came to announce the decree smiled and said, "Doctor Han, although His Majesty has never met you, the Imperial Master knows that you are talented, so he recommended you to His Majesty."

"That's why His Majesty ordered us to come. Do Doctor Han and the Imperial Master know each other?"

"I don't know him!" Han Xin was also confused.

"Haha, the Imperial Master has the ability to predict the future, so he must know that Doctor Han is talented. Doctor Han, let's go back to Guanzhong now!"

Although he had many questions in his mind, the desire to stand out prevailed in the end. Han Xin finally decided to agree to the official who came and follow him to Guanzhong.

"By the way, Doctor Han, the Immortal Master once said that we should ask Doctor Han whether to deal with the butcher who bullied you after we come here?"

Han Xin's facial expression changed when he heard this, and finally thought about it and said: "I have this status now because of the recommendation of the national teacher and the reward of His Majesty. I have not made any contribution to the country now, and I dare not use the majesty of the court to do private things."

"Doctor Han clearly distinguishes between public and private affairs, and is a role model for our generation. Then this matter is left to you to deal with."

Next, in the surprised eyes of the neighbors, Han Xin was recruited as an official by the court. The court envoys even welcomed him with the courtesy of dukes and marquises. The whole Huaiyin County was in an uproar, and the butcher naturally knew the news and was frightened all day long. After seeing that Han Xin did not pursue it, he was relieved.

At the same time, on the other side, Pei County.

There was also a team of court envoys coming here. When these people came here, they went directly to find Xiao He. When Richard recommended Han Xin, he also recommended Xiao He. Although Xiao He was a county official, Richard had talked with him and found him to be very talented. Later, he became the first prime minister of the Han Dynasty.

Now that Liu Bang has been captured by him, there will be no Emperor Gaozu of Han in the future, so Xiao He will naturally not be the prime minister. Now it is just right to bring him to Xianyang. Li Si will definitely not be the prime minister for long. The First Emperor has not killed him yet, so he is still useful. When the court's decrees are almost implemented, his mission will be completed.

During this period, let Xiao He learn with him, and when Li Si is finished, let Xiao He be the prime minister.

Not only Xiao He, but also several famous officials in the early Han Dynasty such as Chen Ping were recruited by the court. As for those military generals, they were basically captured by Richard when he captured Liu Bang.

These people are not talented now because they lack experience. They were able to grow to the heights in history because they were tempered and grew up again and again in the late Qin and early Han dynasties. Now there are no opportunities for them to grow, and these people just have some talents.

When Xiao He saw the court envoy coming to recruit him, he was stunned. He was even more surprised when he learned that the national teacher was Richard.

He couldn't understand why Richard became the national teacher of the Qin Dynasty in just one month, and even the First Emperor respected him so much.
