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

Chapter 61 I think I can get those people moving

Lin Anlan said with a smile: "That's right, when you have stockpiled enough land, you will probably be struck by lightning."

"Hahaha."

Ying Zheng couldn't help laughing.

"By the way, I have something here that can help you solve the transportation problem." Lin Anlan suddenly thought of something and hurried to the warehouse to get paper and pen.

After Zhang Han and Meng Yi came back, Lin Anlan discussed with Zhang Han and finally decided to improve the tools for transporting grain and fodder.

Lin Anlan introduced it to Zhang Han again: "The wooden ox and horse can be moved by magnetic force, without any human intervention. Just place this special track on the road, and you can transport food and other items continuously."

"Sigh~"

After listening to Lin Anlan's explanation, Ying Zheng couldn't help but gasp. He knew very well how much manpower was consumed every time transporting food and fodder.

Lin Anlan added: "Not only that, if it is used to transport ore, the effect will be even better."

"How many people are needed to operate this thing?" Ying Zheng asked hurriedly.

"No need for help." Lin Anlan shook his head. "It will move on its own."

"This..." Ying Zheng's eyes widened suddenly.

Lin Anlan just smiled slightly at the former's shock, then looked at Zhang Han: "Mr. Zhang, how many people are there in the Shaofu now?"

"Thousands."

Lin Anlan sighed: "Besides, the status of craftsmen is low, and many skills are on the verge of being lost. Let me and my brother discuss the imperial examination system. But Mr. Zhang, you have to run a school."

"School?" Zhang Han was stunned.

"It's a place that specializes in teaching light industry." Lin Anlan explained, "We can select some outstanding craftsmen through the imperial examination to study in the school, so as to solve the problem of craftsmanship. During the study period, we can also give them some subsidies, and when they have achieved success in their studies, we can arrange official positions for them."

"As for the teachers in the school, you will need to recruit them yourself, Mr. Zhang."

"In addition, we also have to set up some rewards for those who want to learn light industry. For example, the top three in each industry can get a bonus or something. With the reward mechanism, I believe that many people will take the initiative to learn light industry. At that time, we can select the best craftsmen through the imperial examination and use them for our own benefit."

"In this way, our Daqin's light industry will form a virtuous circle, and within ten years, we will be able to have millions of light industry workers."

"Sigh~"

Ying Zheng and Zhang Han looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

Millions of light industrial workers, what does this mean? By then, Daqin will be able to crush other countries just by relying on light industry!

"But this way, the speed is still a bit slow." Lin Anlan thought for a while and continued, "In order to make our light industry faster, I think we can get those people moving."

"Move?"

Ying Zheng frowned slightly.

Lin Anlan nodded: "Yes, we can set up some more rewards. For example, as long as everyone has an apprentice, the master can also get a part of the reward the apprentice gets. In this way, everyone will rush to accept apprentices. Mr. Zhang can also increase the bonus a little to stimulate them. As for food, brother, you should ask the First Emperor to pay attention to agriculture, encourage the people to grow food, and give certain rewards."

"In addition, taxes should be levied on unmarried women over the age of fifteen to encourage them to marry and have children. With more people and more food, our Great Qin will become more powerful!"

"it is good!"

Ying Zheng slammed the table and said, "Just do as you say!"

"Mr. Zhang, remember to take good notes." Lin Anlan turned his head and looked at Zhang Han.

"Don't worry." Zhang Han nodded heavily, his eyes flashing with excitement.

What Lin Anlan proposed was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for Daqin. As long as it was handled properly, Daqin would definitely be able to achieve a major breakthrough in just a few years!

"It seems that it won't be long before the world's pattern will change." Ying Zheng's mouth corners slightly raised.

"Daqin, invincible!"

Ying Zheng looked at Lin Anlan with a serious face: "Girl, I rarely admire people, but you have made me bow down to you more than once. What you just said is enough to benefit future generations!"

“I don’t deserve it, I don’t deserve it.” Lin Anlan waved his hands repeatedly, “I am just standing on the shoulders of my predecessors. Otherwise, I would not have such ability.”

"Girl, you are too modest." Ying Zheng smiled and then changed the subject, "Girl, I wonder if you will put what you just said into action?"

Lin Anlan nodded: "Of course, since I said it, I will definitely do it."

"Would that girl be willing to join my Shaofu and become one of the Nine Ministers?"

Zhang Han looked at Lin Anlan eagerly. He believed that if Lin Anlan could join their Shaofu, it wouldn't be long before the light industry of Daqin would be the best in the world!

For this, he could give up his position as Shaofu!

"Jiuqing?" Lin Anlan was stunned.

"Yes." Ying Zheng also looked at Lin Anlan with burning eyes.

"Thank you for your concern, brother." Lin Anlan smiled faintly, "But I'm fine now, I'm quite free. If I really become an official, I'm afraid I won't have so much freedom. I don't like a life that is bound by constraints."

"This……"

Ying Zheng and Zhang Han looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

They originally thought that Lin Anlan would agree, but unexpectedly he refused.

"Okay." Ying Zheng sighed, "Since you don't want to, we won't force you. However, if Daqin is in trouble in the future, you must help, girl."

"Sure." Lin Anlan nodded heavily. "By the way, remember to implement what I just said. Light industry is beneficial to the country and the people."

"Don't worry, we will."

Ying Zheng smiled and was about to continue talking when Meng Yi suddenly spoke up: "Brother Zhao, we have finished our work at the Shaofu. Should we go eat seafood?"

As he spoke, Meng Yi glanced at Lin Anlan with a smile.

Lin Anlan was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry. This Meng Er really showed his true nature as a foodie!

"Mr. Meng, didn't you hear clearly just now?" Zhang Han frowned slightly, "Now the Qin Dynasty is in ruins and what we need is talent, not money. Even if we spend money to buy seafood now, those merchants won't sell it."

Meng Yi curled his lips: "Oh, I know, I was just joking."

Ying Zheng glared at him and said, "Meng Er, do you want to try all the delicacies in the world before you're satisfied?"
