Daqin: A buff of incredible comprehension

Chapter 62 "Why keep them? I don't lack maids."

Yan Fei was the first to see Zhao Chen and greeted him with a smile. Zhao Chen looked at her bright smile and felt a pang of anxiety in his heart, wondering what she was up to.

"Young Master!" "Ahem!"

Zhao Chen coughed lightly and slowly walked into the house. However, facing the gazes of ten pairs of eyes, he felt pressured.

"Seventh Young Master, we never imagined that the person Lord Zhao mentioned as someone who would change our fate would be you. So, Young Master, how do you plan to deal with us? Or, Young Master..."

Yan Lingji spoke first, her soft and sexy tone giving people goose bumps. However, her eyes made Zhao Chen very unhappy.

What do you mean?

Do you look down on me?

Yan Lingji, who appears gentle on the outside but is as hot as fire on the inside, I will never let you have an easy time. Zhao Chen thought viciously in his heart.

"Since you have arrived in Daqin, please settle down there. I have already told Zhao Gao that you will live in the separate courtyard. If you need anything, you can always ask Zhao Gao.

Today we have officially met, it’s settled! Zhao Gao…”

Zi Nu and the others looked puzzled:

What do you mean, is that the end? We still have questions to ask, why are you just sending us away like this?

"My subordinate is here!"

"Take them back!" "Yes, sir."

"Ladies please!"

Zi Nu and others had no choice but to follow Zhao Gao and leave.

Yan Fei, Yue Shen and other women still stared at Zhao Chen, full of confusion and surprise: What does this mean?

"Brother, what are you thinking? Don't you want to keep them?"

"Why keep them? I don't lack maids."

"Uh……"

I'm really speechless when you say that.

Indeed, why keep them?

Yan Fei was indeed worried that Zhao Chen would keep these women, and that their competition would bring pressure to herself.

They had already prepared themselves mentally, but Zhao Chen insisted on letting Zhao Gao take them away, which made them unable to react for a while. They felt like their fists were hitting cotton, weak and very uncomfortable.

"Brother, these people are famous prostitutes in Korea. Zi Nu and Nong Yu are famous far and wide, Princess Hong Lian is even more famous in the seven kingdoms, Madam Ming Zhu and Hu Yu are enchanting and charming, especially that Yan Ling Ji, who is even more radiant and charming, with a cold appearance but a fiery heart. Isn't it possible that you are not moved at all?"

What's more, hasn't the young master always wanted to see them?

Now that they are in front of you, how can you not be tempted? This is not common sense."

"Haha!" Zhao Chen looked at Yan Fei in surprise.

"Sister, what is common sense? Am I a pervert in your eyes?"

"Not really, sister, I'm just guessing based on the average man's standards. Faced with such charming women who come to you on their own initiative, I'm afraid few men can refuse them!"

"Sister, what do you mean? I'm not an ordinary person.

Besides, I said before that I just wanted to see Zi Nu and Nanyue, and I didn't have any other extravagant thoughts."

"Really? I don't believe it. Why don't you ask Yueshen, Xiaomeng, and Xiaoyi to see if they believe what you say."

Yan Fei looked at Zhao Chen with an expression that said, "It's okay if you don't believe me." Zhao Chen felt helpless again.

He looked at Yueshen, Xiaomeng and Xiaoyi, and found that they also had a hint of doubt on their faces, and suddenly felt despair in his heart.

Ok,

I admit that I did have such thoughts when I first traveled through time, but I am only three years old now, and I don’t have the ability to do so even if I wanted to!

I'm really hurt when you say that to me, you know?

However, facing the sharp gazes of the four girls, Zhao Chen gave in. "Okay, I admit I have some ideas. However, I will never force anything. Let everything go with fate."

"Aha! So this is what you think, brother." Zhao Chen: "..."

He finally understood that no matter what he said, nothing good would come of it. These jealous sisters were truly terrifying. Better to find an excuse and quickly retreat! "Well, I remember I still have to help Mother break through to the Xiantian realm today. I have to leave first." Without waiting for Yan Fei and the others to speak, he quickly left the hall.

"Heh!" Yan Fei laughed as she watched Zhao Chen flee once again. She was indeed jealous, but she also knew when to stop. It was precisely because they were so familiar with Zhao Chen's personality that they dared to tease him like this. If it were someone else, they really wouldn't have such a joking mindset. As soon as Zhao Chen left, the girls lost interest and dispersed to go about their own business. To be honest, with six more beauties around, they also felt the pressure and naturally needed to redouble their efforts to occupy a larger place in Zhao Chen's heart.

Zi Nu and the others in the carriage exchanged bewildered glances, but remained silent. The atmosphere was remarkably subdued. At this moment, they felt somewhat relieved, as this outcome wasn't so bad after all. Nong Yu, in particular, found the Seventh Young Master quite interesting. She'd met all sorts of people at Zi Lan Xuan, but the Seventh Young Master struck her as particularly different. He seemed to have great respect for women, evident in his treatment of Yan Fei and the others. Therefore, she felt that being with the Young Master would bring her a happy future.

Honglian was similarly impressed. Having heard numerous favorable comments about the Seventh Young Master from her Ninth Brother, Han Fei, she was naturally delighted to meet him. Madam Mingzhu was also interested in becoming Zhao Chen's wife. Although her opponent was formidable, she believed her beauty and figure were no less impressive than those of other women. The most intrigued was Yan Lingji, who had long harbored a desire to meet Zhao Chen, hoping to learn if he had the power to transform the Baiyue people. Her recent understanding of him had convinced her that perhaps only Zhao Chen could achieve this. Now that she was Zhao Chen's wife, she would have ample opportunities to question him.

Zhao Gao escorted Zi Nu and the others to the separate courtyard, telling them to live there peacefully and promising not to restrict their freedom. However, he specifically warned Lady Ming Zhu and Lady Hu not to reveal their identities. After arranging for guards, Zhao Gao left the separate courtyard.

Due to the unusually cold winter, temperatures in the seven kingdoms plummeted, particularly in Zhao and Yan, which set historic lows. Intelligence reports indicate that the number of people who froze to death is unreliable. Wei and Qi, though slightly better off, still saw record-breaking numbers of people frozen to death. The people of South Korea were more fortunate, as their nation had been conquered by Qin and had been under the protection of Emperor Qin Shi Huang before the temperature dropped. Although they lacked traditional kangs (stoves), they had stoves, and deaths from freezing were relatively rare. This winter brought unprecedented warmth to the Korean people, deeply rooting their approval of the Qin Empire. Many were proud to be its subjects. As for Qin, deaths from freezing were virtually nonexistent. Even Chu, normally experiencing a warm and humid climate, experienced unusually cold weather this year, with deaths exceeding those in Qin. This news, naturally, was widely publicized by Emperor Ying Zheng, who published it in newspapers and distributed it to the major cities of the five kingdoms.

Seeing this scene, the people of the five countries naturally developed admiration for the Qin Dynasty.

In particular, the people living on the borders of Zhao, Wei and Chu began to think about moving their families to Daqin.

Once this idea was formed, it was quickly transformed into actual action. After the cold winter, before the spring plowing season of the following year, they hoped to become part of the Qin Empire, perhaps so they could share in some of the amazing crops like potatoes and sweet potatoes.

If these foods could really be distributed, they would never suffer from hunger again.

As the saying goes: "People are tempered by work, and wood is broken by its material." Now the five countries are suffering from this headache.

Although they tried their best to prevent the circulation of newspapers and other information from Daqin, how could they possibly stop the spread of news in such a vast world?

With the invention of white paper, a sharp drop in book prices, and the popularization of pinyin and dictionaries, people gradually became literate.

This wasn't the most vexing problem. What truly irritated the rulers of the five kingdoms was that the dictionaries were filled with the Qin Dynasty's small seal script. The people, previously illiterate, had learned this unfamiliar script.

The fact that their own people knew nothing about the local writing system but were proficient in the small seal script of foreign countries made the kings of the five countries feel very uncomfortable.

Whose citizen are you from?

Despite their strict prohibition, people still secretly bought dictionaries and studied in secret to teach their children how to read. How could they monitor every household's every move at all times?

If such high-pressure tactics were really adopted, the people would be completely lost and the country would collapse in an instant.

In this case, it is really unknown whether these people can still be considered as Chinese citizens.

The people did not learn their own writing system, but were scrambling to learn the writing system of the Qin Dynasty. When this got out, people would inevitably laugh at them.

As for how the dictionary entered their country and who was secretly selling these **, these kings were also confused.

They could never have imagined that all this was done by Ba Qing. Of course, the one who directed everything behind the scenes was Zhao Chen.

Almost all of Ba Qing's property in Qin and Bashu was cleared out, but these were just superficial measures to allow her to infiltrate other countries smoothly.

Since the white paper was published, the nobles of the six kingdoms have suffered great losses, and Ba Qing is no exception. The kings of the six kingdoms all think so.

Therefore, Ba Qing revived her business career in other countries, and even used the power of several countries to attack the Qin Dynasty many times, which made the monarchs see hope for a time.

With the support of the Qin Dynasty, Ba Qing's influence has expanded to the point where she can influence the economy of an entire country. Naturally, she sells dictionaries, newspapers and other supplies through her business network in various places.

It can be foreseen that Ba Qing's Chamber of Commerce will play an immeasurable role in the next war between the Qin Dynasty and other countries. As for Zhao Chen, he hardly left the house throughout the winter.

Except for a few visits to Zi Nu and others, and meetings with Han Fei and Wei Zhuang, he was almost always in seclusion practicing.

He not only taught Zi Nu and the others new martial arts, but also greatly improved their martial arts through cultivation pills and breakthrough pills. At this time, Zi Nu and Yan Lingji had reached the late stage of Grandmaster, and Madam Mingzhu and Hu Mei's charm skills had further improved.
