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

"Speak." Lin Anlan spat out a word coldly.

"It's him, it's him." The middle-aged man quickly pointed at a man hiding behind the crowd.

Lin Anlan waved his hand: "Bring it here."

Soon, the middle-aged man was brought to her.

Lin Anlan looked at the trembling man in front of him and asked coldly: "What's your name? Who is Xu Fu to you?"

The man replied tremblingly: "My name is Shi Ye, and Lord Xu Fu is our emperor."

Lin Anlan was not surprised and continued to ask: "How many people are there here?"

"We have more than 300 households here, with a total of more than 1,500 people."

"Where is Xu Fu now?"

Shi Ye answered honestly: "Xu Fubei... Your Excellency came here two years ago and proclaimed himself emperor. He only comes here once a year."

"How do you usually keep in touch?"

"We hold a court meeting every month, and all tribal leaders must attend."

"very good."

Lin Anlan nodded in satisfaction. Then, she took out a simple map, drew a few strokes on it, and told Ying Zheng and others the situation: "This is what happened during the interrogation just now."

"Asshole." Ying Zheng was furious, gritting his teeth, "Xu Fu is such a bastard, I must kill him with my own hands."

"Your Majesty, please calm down." Meng Yi and Zhang Han hurriedly advised.

Ying Zheng took a deep breath, then looked at Lin Anlan: "Girl, what are you going to do next?"

"Keep going and collect the debt from Xu Fu. As for these people..."

Before she could finish her words, Zhang Han volunteered: "Mr. Lin, these people deserve to die. Please allow me to kill them."

"No, these people are still useful. They can be used as slaves." Lin Anlan shook his head. "Kill the useless ones and keep the useful ones, such as the young and middle-aged people and the children."

"I see." Zhang Han suddenly realized.

"But you must remember not to kill innocent people," Lin Anlan warned.

"Don't worry, sir. I know what I'm doing," Zhang Han assured.

"Let's go." Lin Anlan looked ahead.

Afterwards, Ying Zheng and others continued to move forward.

"My Lord, please let me go."

"Woo, I don't want to die."

"My lord, I am willing to surrender."

Seeing Lin Anlan and others leave, the captured primitive tribal residents begged for mercy, but Zhang Han was merciless. He raised his sword and killed those who were of no use.

In the end, only about one hundred young and middle-aged men and more than two hundred women and children were left.

Time passed quickly, and night fell in the blink of an eye. The Qin army set up camp on the spot.

Ying Zheng, Lin Anlan, Zhang Han and Meng Yi sat around the campfire.

"Girl, how many enemies do you think we will encounter next?" Ying Zheng looked at Lin Anlan and asked.

"It's hard to say, but according to the information provided by Ishino, Xu Fu only brings 200 soldiers each time, and they have not been at peace internally in the past two years, attacking and annexing each other, so it is estimated that there are not many people left."

"So, this place will soon become the territory of our Great Qin."

Lin Anlan smiled and nodded: "Yes, as long as we get rid of Xu Fu, we can develop this place."

Ying Zheng then changed the subject: "Girl, what do you think is the most precious thing here?"

"Of course it's a gold mine." Lin Anlan blurted out.

"Do you have a way to mine the gold here?" Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.

"Of course." Lin Anlan looked proud.

"Tell me quickly." Ying Zheng couldn't wait.

Lin Anlan smiled slightly: "Let the merchants open it."

"Let merchants open it?" Ying Zheng, Meng Yi and Zhang Han looked at each other and noticed the doubts in each other's eyes.

"Yes, we can let merchants come to mine gold and make a profit from it, and they will come naturally."

Ying Zheng was puzzled: "But, they are businessmen, why would they be willing to open a mine in such a remote place?"

"Of course they don't want to, but if the profit from mining is high enough, they will come naturally. We can stipulate that whoever mines the gold will own it."

Ying Zheng shook his head repeatedly: "How can this be possible? Wouldn't it be a huge loss for my Great Qin treasury?"

"Your Majesty, let me tell you this. If the Qin Empire does not develop this place, then the gold mines here will be useless. But if we let merchants develop it, although most of the gold will fall into the hands of merchants, a small part will still belong to the Qin Empire. And these merchants will have to recruit people to open mines, right? The more people we recruit, the more taxes we will get. This will be another source of income for the Qin Empire's treasury."

"Not only that, in order to open mines, these merchants will definitely move all their family members here. In the long run, this place will become a city, a city of Daqin." Lin Anlan said slowly.

"Great, really great." After hearing Lin Anlan's words, Ying Zheng couldn't help but applaud and exclaimed, "Girl, sometimes I really think you shouldn't be a woman."

Lin Anlan smiled sweetly: "Then who does your majesty think I am?"

"I should also follow them and call you sir." Ying Zheng said seriously.

Lin Anlan shook his head: "I don't deserve the title, sir. I'm just doing what I should do."

Ying Zheng said seriously: "Girl, you are too modest."

Lin Anlan quickly changed the subject: "Your Majesty, let's discuss our next steps."

"Okay." Ying Zheng nodded, "Girl, how many troops do you think we need to guard this place?"

"Fifty soldiers are enough." Lin Anlan replied.

"What about the arsenal?" Ying Zheng continued to ask, "The arsenal is also being built here, so do we need to immigrate?"

Lin Anlan nodded: "Of course, I want to turn this place into another county of my Great Qin?"

Ying Zheng was very excited when he heard this: "Girl, I was right about you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lin Anlan bowed.

"Girl, since you have such a deep understanding of military tactics, are you willing to lead the troops in the next battle against the Huns?" Ying Zheng looked directly into Lin Anlan's eyes and asked.

"I couldn't ask for more." Lin Anlan answered without hesitation.

This time she really did not hesitate any more. She had repeatedly rejected the former because the other party's identity was Lao Zhao, but now the other party was speaking to her as the First Emperor of Qin. If she refused again, she would be afraid of losing her life!

Ying Zheng was overjoyed: "Okay, then it's settled."

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Lin Anlan suddenly changed the subject, and said in an extremely domineering tone: "But... it is not enough for us to just unify the Xiongnu. I want to swallow up the Donghu as well."

"Hiss." Ying Zheng, Meng Yi and Zhang Han all gasped.

"Girl, do you have confidence?" Ying Zheng asked nervously.

"Yes." Lin Anlan nodded heavily.

"Okay, I will find a way to let you lead the troops." Ying Zheng said solemnly.
