Chapter 85 Obtaining iron ore mining rights

Ying Zheng was exhausted mentally and physically, and his whole body seemed to have aged ten years.

"Okay, please step back! I'm tired." He called Li Zhao back weakly, but in fact, he couldn't accept such a prediction for the moment.

Hu Hai, his beloved youngest son, rebelled to seize the throne and even killed his brothers and sisters; Li Si, his favored minister, rebelled against him; and Zhao Gao, who had been with him for many years, actually had such intentions.

He is diligent and pro-government in order to maintain all these things, but he does not know that all these things are betraying him.

Also, the eternal life that he longed for was actually false.

His heart is very tired.

But Li Zhao still stood and did not move, as if he wanted to say something.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

Li Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Yes!"

"Say it!"

Li Zhao hesitated for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, do you want some mining rights for iron ore?"

"Mining rights?" Ying Zheng frowned and looked at Li Zhao seriously, "Why do you want mining rights?"

During the Qin Dynasty, iron ore mining was concentrated in the hands of the imperial court, and private mining was not allowed unless special approval was obtained.

"I have become a thousand-man general and commanded two thousand city defense troops. I want to build some weapons."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and asked, "You want to build a big killer weapon?"

"Yes!" Li Zhao said without hesitation, but felt uneasy in his heart.

The imperial court has regulations that do not allow you to make weapons privately if they are not for military use. Otherwise, breaking the law will be a capital crime.

As far as he knew, the air guns and sand guns he built were civilian items and would not violate the ban. But now that he thought about it, he couldn't help but be afraid. With the current situation where even bows and crossbows were not allowed to be owned by the private sector, how could these two guns exist?

Li Zhao patted his chest and felt a cold sweat on his back.

Fortunately, Qin Shihuang did not hold him accountable, otherwise his head would probably fall to the ground.

Ying Zheng did not answer immediately. He took a deep look at Li Zhao and asked, "Can I believe you?"

Li Zhao was shocked when he saw that look in his eyes. These words sounded simple, but he felt that they contained murderous intent. It was a powerful weapon that could defeat the bandits in one blow. It was so sharp.

A cautious person like Qin Shihuang would not easily allow something that threatens him to exist unless the person is very reliable.

I thought to myself: The emperor is afraid that I will pose a threat to him! Hey! I am just thinking about how to make money, so how can I threaten him? The rumors are true, Qin Shihuang is a suspicious person by nature. Hey!

Forget it, it’s better not to build it, lest people lose their heads.

However, Qin Shihuang asked me to build a Tiger Master among the Tiger Masters. How can I become a Tiger Master without a big killing weapon? It’s a bit difficult! Moreover, the Eastern Patrol is coming soon, and the Dune Revolution is inevitable. After Qin Shihuang’s death, Li Si’s unyielding temperament

, I will definitely not let me go. If I don’t have a trump card, wouldn’t that mean I’m dead?

No, I have to fight for the rights to produce iron ore and manufacture weapons. Otherwise, I can only find an opportunity to escape.

Patrolling eastward is a dead end.

Um!

When Ying Zheng heard Li Zhao's thoughts, he frowned, but soon relaxed.

"Yes!" Li Zhao said decisively.

"Very good!" Ying Zheng forced a smile and patted Li Zhao on the shoulder, "I believe you too."

Li Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I believe you too" must have been said after careful consideration! Of course, this was also his trust in Li Zhao.

At this moment, Li Zhao was very touched. How much trust must be placed in him for a very suspicious person to believe in him!

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely not disappoint you." For this trust, Li Zhao made up his mind to create a tiger division among tiger divisions to serve His Majesty.

"Very good, I will give you a secret order to secretly mine iron ore and create a Tiger Division before the eastward patrol to intimidate all parties."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Zhao quickly knelt down to thank him.

Soon, Ying Zheng wrote a secret edict to Li Zhao. The next moment, he returned to his previous depressed state and said: "If you have nothing else to do, just step back! I am really tired."

This was full of frustration.

Li Zhao felt quite heavy after hearing this, but there was something really important. If he didn't say it now, he would have no chance in the future.

"I wonder how Your Majesty will deal with Yang Qing?"

Ying Zheng had no intention of thinking about why Li Zhao asked such a question. He waved his hand and said casually: "Such a quack doctor almost killed me. I want him to die."

The word 'death' shocked Li Zhao, but he still took a deep breath and said: "Your Majesty, Yang Qing is actually quite capable. Instead of letting him die, how about handing him over to my disposal?"

"Leave it to you?" Ying Zheng took a deep look at Li Zhao, and then sighed, "That's fine, just take it away! Just don't let it harm the people."

At this moment, he seemed quite talkative, but Li Zhao knew that this was due to the emperor's trust in him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Li Zhao was secretly happy and quickly thanked him.

"Step back! Step back too." Ying Zheng said to everyone, and then walked to the side hall alone. His steps were so slow, and his back was so lonely. Li Zhao saw the old age in it, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him, the lonely old man!

Yes, when a person's obsession becomes a bubble, this will often happen. Li Zhao believed that the reason why Qin Shihuang was like this must be because his belief in immortality was gone, and he became extremely desperate.

Li Zhaoyu couldn't bear it.

"Promise!" When the waiter heard this, he immediately bent down and retreated, but Li Zhao still did not move, looking at the emperor's back and calling softly: "Your Majesty, if you can trust me, I can help you find something to live forever."

You live longer."

"Really?" Ying Zheng looked back, his eyes a little brighter, but then slowly turned gloomy, "Let's talk about it again!" and left.

Obviously, he didn't believe it. Maybe after the shock, he felt very conflicted!

Li Zhao shook his head, extremely puzzled.

He really was looking for something that could help him live forever! No, he was wrong, it was something that kept him healthy, but why didn’t Qin Shihuang believe it? He could guarantee that as long as all the heavy metals in Qin Shihuang’s body were dissolved, with his knowledge of health preservation, even if he couldn’t

If you let it live for a year, you can make it live to seventy or eighty years old, instead of dying at the age of forty-nine.

Helpless, he had to retreat and follow his attendants to Xianyang Prison.

Xianyang Prison is a place where felons designated by the emperor are imprisoned. This shows the seriousness of Yang Qing's crime. If it hadn't been for him, he might not have survived more than three days.

With the guidance of his servants, Li Zhao easily saw Yang Qing and rescued him.

Yang Qing was surprised that Li Zhao rescued him, but he didn't ask why and just led him back to Chang'an Township before Li Zhao spoke.

"Yang Qing, do you know why I want to save you?"

Although the Yangqing people were eager for quick success, they were not stupid. They replied: "I know, you want me to work for you and become your slave."

Haha! Li Zhao didn't expect Yang Qing to be so direct and smarter than he thought. Exactly, he just wanted to take Yang Qing as a slave and work as a slave in medicine for him.

Others don't know Yang Qing's talent, but he knows it very well as he studied history in his previous life.

Yangqing, also known as Gongcheng Yangqing, Gongcheng is the name of a title, ranking among the 20th title in the Western Han Dynasty. A medical scientist in the Western Han Dynasty, he was the first generation of famous doctors documented in Linzi in the Western Han Dynasty. He was a man with superb medical skills!

Such a person will never lose money if he earns it.
