"Is this inappropriate? If so, wouldn't this Baiyue land be... deserted?"

Zhao Tuo frowned and couldn't help but worry...

"General Zhao, you are worrying too much. The land of Baiyue is a precious place where crops can be harvested three times a year. General, if the land is reclaimed and the people have land and food, and can live and work in peace and contentment, how many people would abandon their wealth and return to the Qin?"

"Even if there is, once the news of the three harvests a year spreads throughout the world, are you still afraid that no one will come to this land of Baiyue?"

"The eldest master said it well, 'All the people in the world come for profit, and all the people in the world leave for profit. As long as the land of Baiyue has value, there is no need to worry that no one will be willing to come!"

Zhao Tuo was stunned on the spot...

The world is bustling with people all because of profit, and the world is bustling with people all because of profit?

Zhao Tuo muttered to himself...his eyes became brighter and brighter...

At this moment, he realized...

..........

In the land of Baiyue, Zhang Han sent a message to Zhao Tuo.

Outside Xianyang, 600,000 corvées started the large-scale planting campaign with great vigor...

And at the same time.

However, changes are quietly taking place in various parts of Daqin...

Sishui County, Pei County.

In a tavern.

Xiao He, Cao Shen, Liu Bang and Fan Kuai were drinking.

Xiao He was the magistrate of Pei County, Cao Shen was the warden, and Liu Bang was a minor official under Cao Shen who escorted prisoners. He appointed himself as a village head, which was basically equivalent to a jailer if converted according to the position.

As for Fan Kuai, he was just a dog meat seller.

The identities of the four people are quite different, but they have a good relationship.

Fan Kuai and Liu Bang had known each other since childhood.

Although Cao Shen was the warden, in Pei County, Liu Bang and Fan Kuai went deep into the lower class. Simply put, they were just gangsters. If you wanted to find out some information or get something done, you could always go to Liu Bang.

Xiao He thought that Liu Bang was an extraordinary person, with vision and ambition that were incomparable to ordinary people. In addition, the implementation of grassroots policies in Pei County was indeed much easier with Liu Bang. As a result, the relationship between the four of them became close, and they often drank and talked...

But drinking today is different from the past.

Today, we have something serious to do!

In the wine shop, Xiao He, Cao Shen, and Liu Bang looked serious, while Fan Kuai still looked heartless...

There were two bamboo slips on the table in front of the four people.

What was engraved on the bamboo slips were none other than the two magical objects that were now causing a sensation throughout the Qin Dynasty - the waterwheel and the curved plow!

"Have you seen these two things? They have now swept across Daqin, but everyone is still hesitant and doesn't know what to do."

Xiao He spoke first and looked at Liu Bang: "Old Liu, what do you think about this?"

Liu Bang smiled...

"What do I think? County Magistrate Xiao, when did you learn to keep people in suspense? This is not like you."

"Since you have called us all here, it means you have already made up your mind. Just give us the orders and we will do the job!"

Liu Bang said it very straightforwardly.

"Hahahahaha. Liu Ji, Liu Ji, I thought I had pretended well enough, but you could still see through this?"

Xiao He couldn't hold it anymore.

Yes, he did have an idea a long time ago, but he didn't want to say it directly. Instead, he wanted to hide it and keep it a secret. Unexpectedly, he was seen through before he could even keep it a secret.

Liu Bang curled his lips: "Pretending? I don't even bother to read your expression."

"Not looking at the expression? Then what are you looking at?"

Xiao He was stunned.

"Look at me! You are like this. You always make every possible effort. If you didn't have any ideas, you wouldn't have summoned us here. As long as I know you, you can't deceive me!"

Liu Bang laughed.

Xiao He suddenly understood and couldn't help but applaud.

"Wonderful! What a good person to watch!"

"Okay, Lao Xiao, stop keeping us in suspense. What are you going to do?"

Cao Shen spoke.

As everyone's eyes focused on Xiao He, his expression gradually became serious...

"I think, everyone! Our chance has come!"

"Great Qin has undergone earth-shaking changes. The sky above has changed!"

"As subjects of the Qin Dynasty, we naturally have to follow the pace of our superiors... Moreover, this waterwheel and curved plow are indeed of great benefit to the people!"

"Here's what I thought. While other places are still waiting and watching, we should act quickly. My county government will take the lead in building water wheels and curved plows, and then rent the curved plows out to the people. There is still some money in the government office. I can use it first to build curved plows, and then let the people borrow them on credit. When the harvest comes next year, the people will pay off the debts..."
