Chapter 119: Meng Tian: I also want to be in the newspaper

Shangjun, military camp.

Meng Tian sat in his commander's tent, looked at the military book, and a soldier walked in.

"How? Are those corvee labor services not right? Are the workers going home for the New Year's work done? "Meng Tian asked with the military book in his hand.

"General, the workers who built the Great Wall have left and gone home for the New Year!" the soldier replied.

"Well, that's good! Where is the wages?" Meng Tian nodded and asked again after hearing this!

"Wu Shifan has already withdrawn a sum of money from the Chamber of Commerce and paid all the wages of these workers!" The soldier replied again.

After hearing this, Meng Tian nodded!

These workers who built the Great Wall earn a full 300 yuan a month, and the construction site where the Great Wall is built also includes food and accommodation. I believe these workers can have a good New Year when they go home!

The imperial edict from Xianyang City, since these corvee laborers for building the Great Wall were already workers, naturally there was no need to force them to build them.

Therefore, after paying the wages, they were asked to go home for the New Year!

As for whether they will come back after the New Year?

Are you kidding? It’s 300 yuan a month for food and accommodation. Many people are rushing to do such a job?

"You don't have to envy you. Now, relying on the Chamber of Commerce, our economy is in great shape. Therefore, Your Majesty ordered us soldiers guarding the bitter and cold land to pay one month more military salaries!"

Seeing the soldier in front of him look envious, Meng Tian then told another good news.

"Really? It's great!" Hearing this, the soldier shouted happily!

Not only will the military pay not be deducted, but it will have to be added for an additional month? This is a great news.

"Now, the situation in Daqin has become better!" Seeing the happy look of the soldiers in front of him, Meng Tian was also secretly happy.

It only took half a year to make the economy of Daqin significantly improved.

Meng Tian still remembers that in the past, the soldiers in the military camp only had to eat three points full, in order to save food and grass, and it was not easy for the Qin Dynasty!

But now, not only can we eat enough, but we can even take out more military pay...

Oh, by the way, according to the prince, it is the year-end bonus!

This is something that has never been done before!

"General, this is the latest issue of the newspaper!" After the soldier left, another soldier came and delivered a newspaper!

"Oh? Come on, let's see what big things have happened recently!" Hearing this, Meng Tian's eyes lit up!

I have to say that the newspaper produced by the prince is indeed a good thing, even much more useful than His Majesty’s edict!

The major events in Xianyang City and even many major events in the country can be learned from the newspapers!

In the past, I always heard people say that they would not leave their homes, so I could tell the world's major events. This is a description of a knowledgeable person!

But now? It’s the same thing that you don’t leave your home, but the prince can also let you know the big things in the world. This method is amazing!

Especially this paper, as thin as a cicada's wing, can write so many words, which is many times better than a bamboo slip.

Nowadays, paper has long been spread throughout the Qin Dynasty, and even memorials are required to be written in paper!

After feeling a little emotion in his heart, Meng Tian picked up the newspaper and looked at it.

The front page headline is about the saying that the people in Yichun Palace are eating braised pork!

Let’s first tell you what happened to Wu Shifan traveled thousands of miles and sent ten pigs. The ten pigs after castration had long disappeared from the fishy smell and were fat!

Meng Tian knew very well that this was in response to what the young master said that every household raised pigs!

Then, he described the prince stewed a large pot of braised pork in Yichun Palace. The meat smelled so good, saying that everyone who passed by Yichun Palace couldn't help swallowing their saliva!

Also, while the meat was still stewing, His Majesty Qin Shihuang couldn't help but reach out to taste a piece. He wanted to continue to taste it, but the prince stopped him!

Then, the braised pork was distributed to other young masters and princesses, and everyone praised it. It was said that it was more delicious than beef and mutton...

This front page headline made Meng Tian swallow involuntarily!

What a good guy, Prince Fusu cooked in person?

Unfortunately, I don’t have this blessing anymore. Since the prince left, I have really lost my meal!

The prince has been away from Shangjun for several months and has lost weight himself!

In addition to this report, there is actually a picture in the newspaper, which shows His Majesty Qin Shihuang holding a pot lid in one hand and a piece of braised pork in the other.

"Well, in this picture, Your Majesty looks much more heroic!" Looking at Qin Shihuang in the picture, Meng Tian nodded secretly!

By the way, when can I also post a portrait of a newspaper?

I want to be published in the newspaper, and it is so heroic.

At that time, when going to places like the Goddess Pavilion, wouldn’t those women come to serve them?

Just thinking about it makes people feel excited!

...

At the same time, Shangjun County City and Wu family.

A big table was filled with various delicacies, and people were sitting next to it.

First, an old man with white hair and beard, holding a newspaper in his hand, and a pair of reading glasses on his nose. No one dared to move the dishes on the table.

After waiting for a long time, a young man ran over.

"Grandpa, I'm late. The workers in Shangjun have to pay their wages and go home for the New Year, so these things are handled until so late!"

After looking at everyone, they were not moving and waiting for themselves, Wu Shifan explained with emotion and guilt.

"Okay, men are determined to be busy, so it's time to be busy!" The old man Wu Shiwu put down the newspaper in his hand and said with a smile.

It was cold this day. After waiting for so long, the dishes were cold. Then I ordered the dishes to be served and heated.

"Fan'er, have you read this recently released newspaper?" Wu Shi'er looked at Wu Shi Fan kindly and asked.

"I haven't had time to see this yet. Is there anything important?" Wu Shifan asked.

"I have described you well on this front page!" Wu Shin-chan sent the newspaper with a smile.

Wu Shifan hurriedly took it with both hands. Sure enough, on the front page, he gave goose feathers thousands of miles away, and uh, Qianli gave ten pigs to the prince, and it was clearly written!

The prince killed the pig and made braised pork, which made His Majesty Qin Shihuang couldn't help but eat it first!

There was also a picture of His Majesty Qin Shihuang impatiently grab meat from the pot and eat it!

Seeing this, thinking about the current newspapers that spread to the 36 counties of the Qin Dynasty, Wu Shifan only felt happy from the sky. From this point of view, he became famous in one fell swoop?

After all, even His Majesty Qin Shihuang liked the pig he sent!

"Fan'er, since the prince attaches great importance to you, you must do your best to live up to the prince's cultivation!" Wu Shi said with relief.

"Grandpa, don't worry, Fan'er has recorded it!" Wu Shifan nodded and said.

"Third brother, it's cold outside. You can drink a glass of wine first to warm up your body!" The second brother Wu Shiping came over in person and poured wine for Wu Shifan.

"Thank you, second brother!" Wu Shifan thanked.

Judging from the second brother's appearance, he could not tell at all that he was as arrogant as he had in Lingxiao Pavilion!

When His Highness the Crown Prince hid his identity and had a conflict with the son of the county magistrate, the second brother did not give him any face, so he wanted to buy the crown prince's nectar and jade liquid at a low price. He looked at his attitude towards him at that time.

Even if I didn't come, the whole family was waiting at the dinner table for me to not start...
