Time Travel: The First Female Imperial Teacher of the Qin Dynasty

When Lin Anlan heard this, the corners of her mouth curled up. This was exactly what she had been waiting for!

"That's right." Lin Anlan nodded and said solemnly, "I am the most outstanding disciple of Guiguzi in this era. My ancestors had a good relationship with Mr. Guiguzi and learned a lot of knowledge from him. And this is me."

As she spoke, she pointed at herself.

Ying Zheng and Meng Yi looked at each other and slowly began to digest the news. Although he had guessed Lin Anlan's identity from various details, now that it was confirmed, he couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

Guiguzi! He is a truly powerful and extraordinary person!

Ying Zheng shouted wildly in his heart, and even the mental illness that had been bothering him seemed to have dissipated a lot.

Lin Anlan observed the two of them silently, feeling somewhat amused. She didn't say it before because she had too much to say, and she couldn't reveal her identity right away, right? Besides, revealing her identity now would have the best effect.

This can also effectively conceal her identity as a time traveler with foresight.

Ying Zheng pondered for a long time before slowly saying, "In that case, it is I who was negligent."

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Anlan shook his head, not caring.

Meng Yi suddenly asked: "Since this island really exists, how do we cross the sea and climb the mountain?"

Yes, this is also a problem, Ying Zheng also reacted. Even if it is confirmed that there is a gold mine there, the question is how to get there? You can't risk capsizing for a gold mine, right?

"I have a way." Lin Anlan said softly, "I only need one thing to make my Great Qin's ships no longer lose their way."

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows: "What is it?"

Lin Anlan whispered two words: "Compass."

Ying Zheng was thoughtful. If this thing really existed, then the ships of the Qin Dynasty would never get lost. Apart from anything else, the opening of a sea route alone was as important to the Qin Dynasty as a gold mine!

His breathing became rapid, and he seemed to see countless glittering gold rushing towards him!

Lin Anlan glanced at him and smiled: "In fact, with Xu Fu's ability, it is not difficult to transport the gold back from there."

Ying Zheng sneered: "That liar..."

It would be fine if he didn't mention it, but once he did, he was furious. Xu Fu had vowed that he could find the elixir of immortality, but he never came back and instead stole a large amount of supplies.

Although those materials are nothing to Daqin, the nature of this matter is extremely bad!

Lin Anlan smiled slightly: "Old Zhao, there is no need to be so angry. From another perspective, this is also a good thing."

Ying Zheng was confused. He still didn't quite understand. This was obviously a bad thing, so how come it became a good thing in Lin Anlan's mouth?

Seeing him like this, Lin Anlan slowly explained: "In fact, this matter has been doomed from the beginning. The first time Xu Fu appeared, it gave the First Emperor hope of finding the elixir of immortality. But in fact, Xu Fu's second voyage was a scam. Since it was a scam, the result was already determined. Whether it succeeded or not, Xu Fu would not appear again. In this case, let him live on the island, what's wrong with that?"

"First, Xu Fu can continue to mine gold on that island. Second, Xu Fu can reproduce there and add labor to the Qin army. Third, Xu Fu can be used as a vanguard to attack the enemy in the future, helping the Qin army avoid many mistakes. Fourth, Xu Fu can be used as cannon fodder when the Qin army goes to war, reducing losses."

"And if Xu Fu had been in the Qin Empire the whole time, how could he have been exposed? From another perspective, this incident is a good opportunity for the Qin Empire to rectify its internal affairs."

After saying this, Lin Anlan picked up a cup of tea and moistened his throat, while Ying Zheng suddenly realized.

What Lin Anlan said makes sense. For example, during the third tour to the east, if it weren’t for Xu Fu, he would not have known that there was an island so far away, let alone that there was a gold mine there.

From this perspective, Xu Fu can be said to have made a great contribution.

Instead of killing him with one blow, it is better to keep him and let him continue to create value for the Qin Dynasty.

Seeing this, Lin Anlan struck while the iron was hot: "Besides, this gold mine cannot be mined for the time being. Why don't we do this while I have time to design a plan, and then we can lure Xu Fu back and make a big profit!"

Meng Yi on the side suddenly said: "Hearing what you said, Xu Fu looks like a mule."

Lin Anlan was stunned, then smiled and said, "Yes, he is a mule. His mission is to branch out and dig for Daqin in the future."

Ying Zheng also understood and laughed: "Yes, he is a mule!"

This was the first time he heard such an interesting metaphor. Now that he thought about it, wasn't that the case?

Lin Anlan said slowly: "In fact, even if Xu Fu is killed, it is useless. How much can his life be worth? It is better to keep him. Maybe he will be grateful and recruit a group of people to work for the Qin Dynasty."

Ying Zheng nodded in agreement.

Lin Anlan continued, "This is just the beginning. In the future, the Qin Dynasty can treat all defeated enemies in this way. Select a group of strong men and throw them into the mines or do heavy labor. The same goes for women and children. They can continuously obtain wealth for the Qin Dynasty without paying any compensation."

Ying Zheng was very excited when he heard this. This way, the wealth of the Qin Dynasty would continue to flow in. Moreover, this method would also allow the Qin army to reduce losses in foreign wars.

It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone!

Ying Zheng looked at Lin Anlan and said sternly: "If you can really do this, I think His Majesty the First Emperor will definitely reward you!"

This meant that she approved of Lin Anlan's plan. As for what reward she would receive, that was not something that Lin Anlan should consider. Although she was a commoner of the Qin Dynasty, she was also a time traveler after all.

What she pursues is actually very simple - nothing more than fame and fortune.

Now, these two things are within reach, how can she not be happy? Moreover, this is just a small step in the plan, she has a bigger plan in mind! She wants to go out to sea in person, to see the outside world: does the legendary ancient country of Loulan really exist?

Now it seems that the answer is yes.

But she can't leave Daqin now, she still has more things to do here.

Lin Anlan stood up and stretched. "Okay, I've said everything I need to say. Do you have anything else to ask?"

Ying Zheng and Meng Yi looked at each other and said in unison: "No more."

Lin Anlan nodded and suddenly said meaningfully: "By the way, Zhang Gan told me that you seem to like looking for excitement in the dark?"

Ying Zheng and Meng Yi blushed at the same time.

"This bastard!" Ying Zheng's expression suddenly changed:

Meng Yi also gritted his teeth and said, "See if I don't kill him next time!"
