Chapter 583 Where have people gone?

Hu Hai was less than ten years old and didn't think much about it.

He raised his little head and said with a naive look on his face: "I heard from my elder brother that your Majesty is mighty, so I will learn it."

Last time, Fusu was forced to call him brother. After only a few contacts, Xiao Hu Hai was already confused by Qin's poisonous chicken soup, and he almost called him brother!

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and was speechless.

really!

Only that bastard will talk about such strange words.

But it seems to be pretty good to taste it carefully!

The rear car drove straight into the villa that had been prepared under the guard, and the emperor did not show up in front of the people from the end.

After all, it is inevitable that you will be assassinated when you appear in such an environment.

Being able to sit in the huge back car and pass by these ordinary people at the bottom of the country shows that the power of heaven is already showing!

That night, Ying Zheng met with civil and military officials from Hanoi County, giving them the opportunity to witness the majesty of Zulong.

Hanoi County is not too far from the capital, and has been under the rule of the Qin Dynasty for almost five years, so it seems that it is managed in an orderly manner.

At least, it is the case on the surface.

If the side that you can't see is like the surface, you can only send someone to patrol secretly in the future.

After all, the purpose of this inspection is Xuande and Yang Wei.

To put it in a sentence from later generations, it is: The world is so big, I want to go for a walk.

Ying Zheng’s purpose was to see the world that was unified by himself and to go away in person.

But there is no time to stay and examine carefully.

After simply meeting the senior Qin officials in the county town, they returned to the other courtyard to rest.

Although the rear car is large and spacious, it is also equipped with shock-absorbing springs.

But I stayed in the car and experienced shaking again, and couldn't help feeling a little tired.

After resting for a night, he continued to head towards the next county town without stopping.

After all, the world is so big, but it takes a lot of time for a huge team to walk through every place.

It is not easy for the First Emperor to go on a five tour in three years!

How can I have time to watch slowly?

That is not in line with the style of the eternal emperor!

When I walked eastward, everything was still normal when I started passing by Dongjun.

But when I arrived in Jibei County three months later, the scene in front of me was a little different.

When I first entered the city, it was a lively scene.

The streets were filled with people coming to greet the kneeling people.

But the next day, it was different.

Hu Hai's child was active. Accompanied by Fusu, he couldn't help but go out shopping under the protection of the guards at dawn.

However, although the entire county town cannot be said to be depressed, it seems to be sparsely populated.

There is no place where the lively scenes when I entered the city yesterday.

Especially when the people are busy with farm work in the fields, there are even fewer people in the city.

There are few people on the street, and there are even more doors in the open shops.

She looks deserted.

Compared with the few county towns I passed by before, it is a world of difference.

Hu Hai felt lonely and bored after walking around and no longer had any interest.

Back in the villa, he complained to the emperor.

Although the child said it was unintentional, the emperor listened to it.

After all, population is the foundation of the country.

If a county town is actually sparsely populated, what else can we talk about development?

If every city had a population of withered like Jibei County, who would plant the vacant fields?

Not to mention the transfer of servants to build the magnificent Afang Palace!

When Han was destroyed, the Qin Dynasty used a trick to make every household of the people smelify iron, resulting in the lack of fertile land and wasted.

After the coming year, I realized that although I made money, I could never buy food again.

For this reason, a large number of people fled.

In the end, Han died!

This is a plan from the Qin Dynasty. How could the First Emperor, as the planner, not knowing that population is important and step up farming!

But now there are not even a few people in the city and there is no business to do with vendors. This is a dangerous situation!

Thanks to the unification of the world now, no major war can threaten the Qin confidant.

If it were the seven kingdoms in a melee, this city would have been defeated long ago!

Ying Zheng frowned as he listened to his youngest son's story.

It seemed like ice slag was about to fall from the majestic face.

He said coldly: "Call the county magistrate!"

Zhao Gao hurriedly took the order and ran down to pass the order.

Qin Xuan stood aside and carefully looked at the old man's face that was almost covered with ice.

He moved back quietly and subconsciously took a step back.

Soon, under the emperor's edict, a middle-aged man in official uniform walked in quickly.

Sailing respectfully: "I bow to your Majesty!"

Ying Zheng sat on the chair and glanced coldly.

Just one glance made the county magistrate feel a lot of pressure, and his heart was instantly soaked in cold sweat.

I don’t know what was wrong, which made His Majesty the Emperor unhappy.

I could only lower my head and wait quietly for the emperor to give in.

"Hmph~!"

Ying Zheng snorted coldly and shouted in anger: "You did a good thing!"

A loud shout made the county magistrate tremble all over, his legs became weak, and he could no longer withstand the great pressure and knelt on the ground.

He looked up tremblingly and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what I have done to make you angry?"

Hu Hai stood aside, pouted and said, "There is no one in Jibei County, it's not fun!"

Ying Zheng glanced at his beloved son and did not scold him.

With a majestic gaze, he looked directly at the person kneeling on the ground and asked coldly: "Do you still need me to ask you?"

The county magistrate shook his head quickly: "Don't dare, don't dare~!"

Ying Zheng sneered: "In the report before the New Year, there are still tens of thousands of people in the smallest county towns!

Haha, do you think there are still 100,000 people in Jibei County?”

The county magistrate trembled and quickly raised his head to explain.

Just when I opened my mouth wide and was about to speak, I saw the handsome face hiding among the crowd, and swallowed the words I just reached my mouth.

Some things can be said, but they cannot be said here.

What you say now is no different from making a report.

Even if the emperor passes the imperial examination, he may not be alive for a long time!

Ying Zheng saw the county magistrate who was about to speak but wanted to speak but stopped.

He turned his head to look along his gaze and landed on the handsome young man behind him.

His brows couldn't help but frown.

He muttered in his heart: Is it related to this bastard again?

He said in a deep voice: "If you don't say it now, there is no need to say it in the future!"

The county magistrate's heart trembled and he could no longer care about anything else.

He hurriedly said, "Report to Your Majesty, all the people in the city have gone to Jiaodong County!"

In order to get rid of the crime, he simply admitted: "It is not only the people of Jibei County who went to Jiaodong County, but even the people from several county towns around him have gone!

I heard that the most miserable Langya County is almost impossible to find the people who cultivate. The county magistrate was so angry that the city was locked down, which prevented the people from moving!"

Ying Zheng took a look, turned to look at his son hiding behind, thinking in his heart.
