Chapter 26

"What a bunch of useless things. You clearly hold the world map in your hands, and the land of so many countries is right in front of you. You actually watched them being snatched away by other countries! How dare you still have the face to call your ancestors?! How embarrassing! The face of the old Qin family!"

"Trash! They are all rubbish! They don't talk about martial arts, just fight them, beat them until they are convinced! Don't beat them back after being bullied, and still cry to your ancestors here, what a rubbish!"

The First Emperor clenched his hands into fists and banged on the table anxiously. For the first time, he felt that iron could not become steel.

At the moment, he couldn't tell whether it was the unfilial son who destroyed his Great Qin who failed to live up to expectations, or whether these later generations failed to live up to expectations.

It seems that he has one more thing to do now.

After he has finished dealing with the problems left by the Qin Dynasty and caught out all the moths, he will pack up the army and wipe out a few small surrounding countries first!
I heard that Weiman of the Yan people took people to the northeast to establish some kind of Chen Kingdom, but he didn't take them seriously at that time.

I didn't expect that such a big-ass place could actually allow them to make trouble. Not only did they establish a country, but they also dared to cause trouble for future generations. It was really contrary to heaven!

When Qin was competing in the Central Plains, what powerful enemy did it not encounter?

He wouldn't even look down on a mere Chen country.

As for the other countries on the map, take your time one by one.

There are so many countries in the world, it is simply annoying.

Now that he has obtained the world map, in the future, there will only be one country in this world, Qin!
[During the Qin Dynasty, roads all over the country were made of stone or dirt.When the vehicle walks on it, the wheels rub and roll back and forth on the ground, forming two marks.With the increase of road use time, the wheels of passing vehicles rub against the ground repeatedly, forming two fixed shallow grooves, which are the rails of the same track.

With these two shallow ditches, when the vehicle drives back and forth, the wheels will be stuck in the two shallow ditches, so that the vehicle will drive faster.It is a labor-saving institution.However, once the size of the vehicle does not fit well with the shallow ditch, and the wheels cannot be fixed in the shallow ditch, there will be a great safety hazard.

For a vehicle traveling at high speed, once a wheel does not match the track, it is very likely to roll over, or a more serious traffic accident.This is still normal.

What if it rains?Dirt roads are mud when they meet water.

It was raining, stepping on the mud, and every time I walked, there were shoe marks.No one can walk, let alone a car.

This just embodies the importance of the car on the same track.In some places it will be called the same rut.The relationship between the two is actually a qualitative change and a quantitative change.

The initial traces changed after a period of time and became two shallow grooves, which are ruts.As time progresses further, the two shallow grooves continue to deepen and become grooves that can restrain the wheels, which are the rails. 】

(Barrage:) "I was scared to death, I thought I went to a fake school."

"Me too, I clearly remember that I used to learn Che Tongzhe."

"It's boring, I thought I was going to witness the Mandela Effect with my own eyes."

["Historical Records: The Chronicles of Qin Shihuang" records: "The carriage is six feet long, with six feet for steps and six horses for riding." The distance between wheels is stipulated to be six feet, which is less than 1.4 meters today, which sounds a bit narrow.

In addition, the First Emperor also ordered the demolition of the fortresses and fortresses between various countries. Starting from the 27th year of Qin Shihuang (220 BC), three galloping roads were built to the east, north and south with Xianyang Palace as the center, leading to Yanqi and Qi respectively. area, Wu Chu area and straight to Jiuyuan to resist the Xiongnu.

A transportation network extending in all directions was formed, connecting Qin State from south to north, and from east to west, which greatly facilitated transportation throughout the country and promoted economic exchanges between various places.

We all say "If you want to get rich, build roads first." Brother Zheng's approach can be said to be very groundbreaking. Not to mention the background of the times at that time, it is not outdated even today.

So, is spending so much effort building roads a waste of time and money?This is obviously benefiting the people! 】

The nobles of the six countries were a little stunned when they heard this, how did Tianmu know that they were going to say this?
The tent said everything they said, so what did they say? !

[The third major measure is to unify weights and measures.The First Emperor extended the weights and measures system and ease of measurement established during Shang Yang's reform period to the whole country, promoting the development of the commodity economy. 】

[The fourth point is homology, which stipulates that people in various places must be consistent in terms of food, clothing, housing, transportation, customs and habits.

"Book of Rites·Liyun" records: "At the beginning of the husband's ceremony, he started to eat and drink. The burning of millet and pork is as if it can show his respect to ghosts and gods."

We all know that the Zhou Dynasty attached great importance to ethics and morals, but by the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it became an era where etiquette collapsed and music collapsed.

Now that the country has just been unified, standardized behavioral habits and moral standards have become a top priority. Otherwise, how can society be stable and how can the country develop?
This can be seen in the inscriptions after the First Emperor's Taishan Conferment Ceremony.

"There is a distinction between high and low, men and women are courteous, and obey the duties carefully. The inside and outside are separated, and the impurity is imposed on the descendants. The transformation is endless, obeying the edict, and forever inheriting the heavy precepts."

These lines emphasize etiquette and hierarchy.Bureaucrats and common people should each perform their duties, and everyone should treat each other with courtesy. 】

[The above four points are the measures taken by Qin Shihuang to unify the general trend.Next, let's take an immersive look at the bureaucratic system of the Qin Dynasty. 】

[As a question writer in a small town, you are working hard to prepare for the public exam.When you wake up in the dark while reviewing, you find that you have traveled to the Qin Dynasty.

After thinking about it, you think that with the Sixiu Mayuan that you have memorized for so many years, and your sudden argumentation skills, you can definitely win Qin Shihuang's reward and become a high official easily.

But when you go to a small town to find a school to learn about the precautions for the civil servant examination in the Qin Dynasty, you find that there is not even a school in the whole town.You are very puzzled, so you grab a passing uncle and ask him what's going on.But instead of answering your question, the uncle dragged you towards the county government gate.

You hurriedly broke free from the uncle's hand, and only after running several miles did you realize that this is Qin Chao.The people do not allow anyone to set up private schools at all, and cultural education relies on "taking officials as teachers", and the main learning is the laws of the Qin Dynasty.You find that the things you prepared for the exam are useless.

Fortunately, you have a good history. I know that in the Qin Dynasty, if a noble or official recommended you, you could get an official position.

You don't have much money on you, and the things you can buy are limited. You can only visit high-ranking officials and nobles with some shabby gifts, but you visit several houses in a row and can't even get in. 】
