Your Majesty, Fan Yong and others are brought here, waiting outside the hall!"

Just as the civil and military officials were staring at each other and whispering to speculate about the memorial that had been hidden by the First Emperor, a guest came in outside the door to report, so the buzzing sound stopped.

Today's main topic is the matter of Qinghe Hou's report on the matter of the four major merchants including Fan's family giving the First Emperor a billion gift package. The Lord's bill was just discussed by the way and then passed.

Now is the main topic of today's discussion.

"Xuan!" Emperor Shi waved his sleeves and his expression restored his usual calmness and majesty.

"Xuanfan and others went to the palace to meet~"

Accompanied by the envoy's long shouts, a moment later, I saw the four white-bearded old men including Fan Yong, wearing flowers one by one... Well, they were neatly and neatly taken care of their hair and beards. Under the leadership of the envoy, they walked into the court excitedly and staggeredly. As soon as they entered the door, they were still thirty feet away, and the four old men knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the First Emperor: "Grassip, greet Your Majesty!"

"Haha, please get up quickly, please come up and talk!" The First Emperor stood up with a smile, obviously very satisfied with the performance of the four old men.

"Thank you Your Majesty!" Amid the slight restlessness of the civil and military ministers, the four old men got up with redness and trembling, and then walked slowly to the imperial steps about ten feet away from the First Emperor, standing still, kneeling on the ground and kowtowed to the great ceremony again.

"No gifts, I will give you a seat to the four elders!" The First Emperor nodded and sat down with a smile. The palace servant immediately brought four chairs to ask Fan Yong and others to sit down with the civil and military officials of the court. The four old men were so excited that they burst into tears. They sat on the big chairs for the court for kings, princes and ministers, and cried like children.

This is the highest courtesy I have ever received in my life.

When there were many princes in the past, great merchants also had status and were all in the seven countries. Business leaders such as Fan family, who were rich in family, were even guests at the mansion of the Seven Kings Sun's nobleman, but they would never have been able to get to the point of having seats in the court.

What's more, the Great Qin is far from the Qin State when the seven kingdoms were fighting, but the first unified dynasty in China, dominating the Central Plains, subduing the four barbarians, and submitting to all the eight desolates and six unions. The First Emperor, who sat on a dragon throne, was as unreachable as a god. He lived in the palace in his daily life and occasionally went on patrols, but the defense was strictly controlled by thousands of imperial guards. It was a luxury to see the shadow.

But today, they not only received the summons from the First Emperor, but also met Long Yan so closely, but also received the seat personally given by the First Emperor, which was as courtesy as the civil and military officials of the court. This honor and treatment could make merchants and people all over the world envious and jealous.

The four masters have unique vision, especially because of the business leader Fan Yong. When they met Chen Xu in Wancheng, they became confidant. Without even knowing Chen Xu, they boldly invested huge sums of money to establish a Chinese Money House. Under the leadership of Fan Yong, the Wen family, Zheng family, and Ximen family all joined, thus starting the process of group-breaking money-making. Chen Xu, who is a rare commodity, has lived up to the public and upgraded like a rocket. In just a few years, he took the second seat of the Great Qin Empire. The buff halos of the Marquis, Shangqing, Shaoshi, and Taishi flashed one by one. Now they sit on the eight-story imperial stairs and overlook the power of all beings to the court and the country. Their families holding Chen Xu's thighs all have risen. In just a few years, they monopolized many emerging industries in the Great Qin Empire and gathered wealth that could rival the country.

Although they have money at home, for merchants, opportunities, connections and backers are the security guarantees for them. Money cannot resist power. They decided to listen to the words of Hehou and use the money they have earned over the years to open a road to power for themselves.

Today, their efforts were finally rewarded. Just the actions of the First Emperor personally receiving and thanking in the court have already loaded a talisman for their family.

But they knew that this was just the beginning.

This investment will become the future of their family on another prosperous road to wealthy families, and from then on, they will get rid of the position of worrying about making money all day long, and truly unify power and wealth.

The four old men cried so hard that they kept wiping their tears with their sleeves. When the civil and military officials looked at each other, they rolled their eyes and expressed their disdain.

What's the point of crying when I sat in a chair in the past? I went to the court every day until my back hurts. I only had a little official salary every year. If anyone gives me one billion, I will exchange it with them.

Rich people envy powerful people, and powerful people envy rich people.

Although the civil and military officials in the court thought they were all the best, with wives and concubines in the family, and they were in and out of carriages and horses and slaves, living in and out of luxury, when faced with these four old men with tears in their noses, they had to admit that the gap was too big. If the four people just leaked a little into their fingers, they would have more money than their family.

"Fan Yang, this marquis has submitted the plan letter sent by you and four others to Your Majesty. Your Majesty is moved by the sincere hearts and patriotic actions of your four major families. Today I specially summoned them to thank you in the court. This is the court. Please control your emotions and don't cry and make noise!"

Seeing the four old men crying and seemingly dying, Chen Xu had to stand up and remind him, so that he would not be unlucky if he was extremely happy and sad.

After the four old men gathered their mood and wiped away their tears and their emotions slowly stabilized, the First Emperor smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, joy, anger, sorrow and happiness are human nature, and the Grand Tutor does not need to blame. The Wen family of the Fan family, Zheng family of the Zheng family of the Qin Dynasty are all famous merchant families in my great Qin Dynasty. They have made a lot of contributions to our great Qin Dynasty in recent years. Since the creation of horse-drawn equipment, they have been spared no effort to support the court. They have also made a lot of money in these years. This time, the four of them have invested huge sums of money to integrate coal, iron, and steel.

The iron and cement factory, and giving such a large sum of money to me, really makes me happy. You said it very well in the planning letter. Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. The Qin Dynasty can have today's prosperity and peace and tranquility. You and the merchants have made great contributions. Therefore, I specially met with four people in the court today to express my gratitude. Today, I will set up a banquet to entertain the four people in Ganquan Palace. I hope that all merchants in the world can take you as an example and make more contributions to the Qin Dynasty!”

"Wow" The civil and military officials in the court were slightly commotion, and many people showed extremely surprised expressions on their faces.

The emperor was not grateful for the reception at that time, and he was preparing to set up an imperial banquet in the palace to entertain him, which was obviously a bit too much.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Fan Yan and four old men immediately rolled from their seats excitedly to the ground and kowtowed.

"This is the courtesy you deserve. I also want to tell the people of the world through this matter that although I, Daqin, are proud of military merits, in the current peaceful and peaceful period, those who contribute to Daqin will also receive enough respect and compensation. You can leave first. I will declare the reward at the dinner!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, and others for your leave!" The four old men kowtowed again and trembled and staggered out of the court under the guidance of the envoy.

It was said that it was a summoning and thanking him, but it only took ten minutes.

But the imperial court's government affairs are numerous every day, and each item is a major decision that concerns the people's livelihood and the stability of the country. The First Emperor was able to take this little time to meet the four merchants and say a few words of thanks, which was definitely a sufficient face.

During the Chen hour, the morning court will scatter.

As all civil and military officials retired, the four major merchants offered 100 billion wealth to the First Emperor instantly spread in Xianyang. At the same time, the news that the First Emperor received four heads of the family and had to set up an imperial banquet in the palace to thank him. However, this news is far less sensitive than the one billion gift package, and it was almost automatically ignored by everyone.

As for the court, the new Lords Act and the Medal Act, two issues that have the greatest impact on the Qin Dynasty and the future of the world, they did not cause any waves among the people at all.

The Lords and medals are indeed very, very envious, but for ordinary people, it is completely meaningless to draw cakes to satisfy their hunger. It is too far away from ordinary people's lives. Ordinary people rest at sunrise and sunset, and peddlers and barons make their own lives. It is difficult to make meritorious service but to achieve success or achieve success.

Therefore, whether it is the Lords Act or the Medal Act, it is still targeted at the bureaucracy and elites of the entire Qin Dynasty. These two bills will greatly stimulate their strength and confidence to serve the court and the Qin Empire.

A huge fortune of one billion is astronomical, which strongly stimulates everyone's nerves. Therefore, the discussion among the people is the most intense. If you meet an acquaintance on the streets, alleys and fields, you will not be in the mood to work without a few words. Even if you hug the white little lady in the Quyuan Restaurant, you will feel happy and famous scholars and gentry. When you think of this huge wealth that looks like a mountain of gold, you will not have much sexual interest in an instant. You sigh and start to sigh that these four major families have been pinched by the door and kicked by the donkey. How could they do such a stupid thing?

And this news came to the ears of merchants, which was a different story. Everyone was surprised that their chin could not close their eyes and fell all over the ground, and they also thought about deeper reasons.

The four major families of the Fan family, Wen family, Zheng family, Ximen family, all have close ties with Qinghehou. From last year to this year, I have been hearing that they used huge sums of money to acquire a large number of coal, iron ore and steel and cement companies everywhere. I thought they would completely monopolize these industries and not give others soup, but I didn't expect that the final outcome was that no one guessed that the four major families actually handed over this astronomical wealth to the First Emperor.

This is an extremely weird and unexplainable move.

Although the people criticized the actions of the four major families and had more rumors about Qinghe Hou, according to Qinghe Hou’s current status, no one in the world can shake it. Therefore, in the eyes of many officials and gentry merchants, those rumors are just jokes.

So a large number of merchants gathered together to discuss this topic. Various chambers of commerce in Xianyang were naturally crowded and lively. There were even a large number of giant merchants who thought they were well-known in their family and went to the Nanyang Chamber of Commerce to visit Fan Yan and others, all trying to figure out the reason, but Fan Yan and others could only talk about him. Before the First Emperor's reward was received, they were actually excited and uneasy.

I don’t know if the billions will eventually get the desired result if I throw them out.

Because according to the Lord Act just passed today, they may be able to obtain a false title and become a real noble, but Chen Xu's plan to build a country overseas in the future may be ruined.

The people are bustling with people to pay attention to the billions of money donated by Fan and others, but for the princes, princes, ministers, and officials and gentry, besides drooling over the billions of money, the focus is on the Lords Act.

The passage of the Lord's Act will become the best way for all the aristocratic gentry who have no chance to go to the battlefield to gain military merits. Therefore, in the quarium where officials, doctors and celebrities gathered, countless people gathered together to drink and discuss this matter. Those with far-sighted vision can naturally see that these two bills will have a significant and far-reaching impact on the Qin Dynasty and the entire world in the future.
