"I'm very curious, why the military parade is not held in Xianyang City!"

Yan Yan was a little curious.

Xianyang was large enough, and its central street was extremely broad, capable of accommodating all the troops being reviewed.

There is absolutely no need for the people to run from Xianyang to the foot of Mount Li to watch.

"Maybe it's because I have no experience this is my first time!" Dao Zhi thought about it and gave the most reasonable explanation.

"Weapons are weapons of destruction, so we can't let a large army enter the city!"

As the person responsible for protecting Yan Yan's safety, Zhang Han naturally gave the best explanation.

It's not that the Qin State had not thought about having its army enter the city for inspection, but Xianyang had experienced several wars and the Qin people were afraid.

First there was the Qinian Palace Rebellion caused by Lao Ai, and then there was the Cheng Jiao Rebellion. For the Qinian Palace, the army entering the city was an ominous sign.

Therefore, even Ying Zheng did not dare to let the army into the city easily, especially since those who were being reviewed were the elite among the elite from all over the place.

Of course, the most crucial thing is that Qin was learning from Bingzhou. Bingzhou’s military parade was not held in Beiyewangcheng, so Qin followed suit.

But Zhang Han was naturally too embarrassed to say these things out loud.

"Is there no title of lord this time?" Yan Yan was a little curious.

"No!" Zhang Han shook his head.

The military merits required to become a feudal lord were too great, and even Wang Jian and Wang Ben were unable to accumulate enough of them.

"Sure enough, Wu Anjun's views are getting higher and higher!" Yan Yan sighed.

I originally thought that Wang Jian could be compared with Bai Qi in terms of military achievements in conquering the six kingdoms, but now looking closely, I see that he is still far behind.

After all, when Shang Yang established the military merit titles, he never intended that anyone could achieve the status of a lord based on military merit.

Who would have thought that Bai Qi spent his entire life in military service, and was almost always given orders in times of crisis, and he fought battles where the few defeated the many and the weak defeated the strong.

If the Qin State was the remnant of six generations of power, then the most critical figure among them was Bai Qi.

Because of Bai Qi, all the elite troops of Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu, Yan and Qi were defeated.

There were nearly 500 wars of varying sizes during the Warring States Period, with a direct death toll of about 2 million. Bai Qi single-handedly killed one million people, directly annihilated the fresh troops of the six countries, and defeated the elite troops of each country.

He fought in more than seventy battles of varying sizes in his life and never lost a single one. This is the most terrifying thing about him.

It really comes true that if you don't join the army, you see me like a frog in a well seeing the bright moon. If you join the army, you see me like a floating particle seeing the blue sky.

The more you look at Bai Qi, the scarier he becomes, and the taller he becomes.

Wang Jian's victory was based on the suppression of military force, while Bai Qi's reputation was truly earned through killing with his sword and spear, and was therefore called a human butcher by the six kingdoms. Even though he was sentenced to death at Duyou by the King of Qin, the Qin people still spontaneously built a shrine to worship him.

The innocent crimes and the great achievements that frightened the lord were all caused by Bai Qi.

The cowardice of Wang Jian and the Wang family was largely influenced by Bai Qi.

"I heard that Wang Jian once complained that it was difficult to be granted a title of nobility. This time he finally got his wish!" Yan Yan said casually.

"I dare not hear that!" Zhang Han broke out in a cold sweat.

This kind of words are just for listening, I really don’t dare to spread them.

If Ying Zheng took it seriously, Wang Jian would be in big trouble.

"Marquis Wucheng's status is not low!" Yan Yan continued.

Although the title of Marquis Wucheng is not as high as that of Marquis Wu'an, it is hereditary.

As for the last person to be given the title of "Wucheng", it was King Wucheng Jiang Shang! The full name of the Wu Temple is also called Wucheng King Temple, and the chief priest is King Wucheng Jiang Shang.

Therefore, even if Wang Jian was not granted the title of a lord, in fact this title was no less powerful than that of a lord.

"I heard that Bingzhou will also reward meritorious officials and build the Xuanwu Terrace during the annual court session?" Zhang Han asked inquiringly.

"I have this plan!" Yan Yan nodded with a smile.

All dynasties liked to establish pavilions for rewarding meritorious officials, such as the Qilin Pavilion of Emperor Xuan of Han, the Twenty-Eight Generals of the Yuntai Pavilion of Emperor Guangwu of Han, and the Lingyan Pavilion of Emperor Taizong of Tang.

Therefore, Yan Yan was also planning to build a pavilion for meritorious officials in the Beiye Royal City, named Xuanwu Pavilion.

"There are quite a few feudal lords, right?" Zhang Han continued to ask.

"You'll understand when the time comes!" Yan Yan smiled without saying anything.

There is a difference between the rewards for founding a country and the rewards for later periods. It is easy to get the title for founding a country, but it becomes difficult to get it later.

The outskirts of Mount Li were also crowded with enthusiastic people. Looking around, the whole mountain was filled with people. Many people even climbed up trees to wait for the best view.

"You can make a lot of money by setting up a stall selling hot water or fried rice!" Yan Yan said with emotion.

"???"

Zhang Han was stunned. How could the emperor be so appreciative of this?
However, Mo Ya, Bai Feng, Dao Zhi and others were suddenly surprised. How many people are needed and how much money can be made!

They do it as soon as they think of it. When it comes to execution, they are still max!

"You guys?" Zhang Han was even more shocked when he saw Mo Ya and others who had taken people to rent a bucket cart, loaded up with pots and pans and really went out to sell water and fried rice.

"Opportunities only come to those who are prepared. Even if I give you the opportunity, you are useless!" Yan Yan rolled his eyes at Zhang Han.

"How much money can this be worth?" Zhang Han shook his head.

"A pot of water sells for one big dollar, and a portion of fried rice sells for two dollars. There are at least 70,000 to 80,000 people here. Even if only ordinary people buy it, it will be 100,000 dollars." Yan Yan said casually.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Han disappeared immediately.

He thought that just a few tens or hundreds of coins would last him, but you told me that it was more than 100,000 coins, which was his salary for many years.

What's more, the Shadow Secret Guards were not part of the Qin State's organization. They were Ying Zheng's personal guards, supported by Ying Zheng's treasury. More than 100,000 were enough for their food and clothing expenses for several months.

"Is there really so much money?" Yan Lingji asked curiously.

"Just more, no less!" Yan Yan said with a smile.

This is like the traffic jams on highways in later generations. Many people know that they can make money, but very few are really willing to do it. However, making money is real money.

Yan Yan remembered that there was once a report that someone could earn tens of thousands of yuan a day just by selling instant noodles on the highway. There was no technical content involved, and he was just a porter.

No one looks down on this little money, and no one is willing to lower their status to do it.

When they see others earning what they would have earned in several months in one day, they start to drool with envy. However, if they have such an opportunity again, they are still unwilling to do it. They just laugh and complain about what will happen if they do it.

For example, Zhang Han didn't value this little money at first. Even if he mobilized the Shadow Secret Guards to do it, I'm afraid they wouldn't be willing to lower their status to do it.

"But... Li Yao!" Yan Yan looked towards the direction of Qinian Palace. With Li Yao's money-obsessed personality, she would not miss this opportunity to make money.

Even the Qin State held its grand military parade in the Lishan camp, and it was probably Li Yao who was pushing it behind the scenes.

After all, Li Yao made money from the rich families in this ceremony, but he did not make money from ordinary people.

According to the character of these businessmen, if they fail to make a profit, it is considered a loss.

Therefore, Li Yao will definitely not miss this opportunity.

It may not be easy for Mo Ya, Dao Zhi, Bai Feng and others to earn this money!
