"Once the ships and the related money, grain, and goods are ready, set off immediately!"

"Understood!"

Zheng He bowed deeply to Ying Su and then turned to leave!

He needed to familiarize himself with Xianyang City and what the Great Qin currently had and did not have!

After arranging for Zheng He, Ying Su looked at Cai Lun again!

For him, this was a God of Wealth!

Yes, don't look at the fact that the national treasury still has some grain and money.

But how could he not know about the things that the Minister of Agriculture Yang Chun was worried about?

Yes, the operation of a country requires burning money!

In addition to what Yang Chun was worried about, there was also the construction of the Great Wall!

This first three months had passed, but what about the second?

The third?

There would be a fourth in the future!

In addition, there was the construction of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum and the Epang Palace; these were all places that burned money.

However, those were not urgent matters.

The urgent matter was that Zheng He's voyage overseas would cost money.

Yes, he could ignore Yu Yu Huatian's army, but where would he get the money for Zheng He?

Wouldn't it have to be by making paper and selling it?

Therefore, at this moment, his eyes were full of anticipation as he looked at Cai Lun:

"Within three days, I want to see 100,000 sheets of paper!"

"Three days..."

"100,000 sheets of paper?"

Cai Lun was startled, but soon nodded: "Understood!"

After all three of them went out, at that moment, a smile appeared on Ying Su's face!

As long as these three people took action, the Great Qin's national strength would improve.

And as the Great Qin's national strength improved, he could earn points and summon more characters!

And speaking of summoning characters, Ying Su's eyebrows suddenly knit together!

He recalled the three people: Cai Lun, Zheng He, and Yu Yu Huatian.

His head buzzed.

Wait, these three... are they all eunuchs?

Yes!

This was something he had just realized!

When he first obtained these three, Ying Su only felt confused that they were not divine generals; only now did he realize that these three were all eunuchs!

"No!"

"I must study the system immediately!"

If I don't study the system, I won't even understand the lottery mechanism in the future!

Ying Su shook his head and opened the system directly to start studying!

And after half an hour of study, Ying Su finally understood!

Although this system was called the Divine General System.

It encompassed all the powerful figures from ancient and modern times, including Wuxia, anime, and so on!

And these characters were divided into four levels!

The first level, A-level characters, such as Cai Lun, Zheng He, and others!

The second level, S-level characters, such as Fan Zhongyan, Li Bai, Yuan Yuan Chonghuan, and others!

The third level, SS-level characters, such as Bai Qi, Lian Po, Yue Fei, Fang Xuanling, Huo Qubing, Zuo Zuo Zongtang, and others!

The fourth level, SSS-level characters; these characters were quite monstrous, such as Li Li Yuanba, Saitama; in terms of governance, there were Zhang Zhang Juzheng, Lord Lord Xinling Wei Wei Wuji, and others!

Even, Ying Su saw some fierce figures in science at the SSS level, such as Einstein, Newton, Da Vinci, and Yuan Lao!

Seeing these characters, Ying Su's eyes shone!

If he could summon an Einstein, wouldn't that be a sure way to strengthen the country through technology?

If he could summon a Zhang Zhang Juzheng or Wei Wei Wuji, he could learn from the Wanli Emperor!

Never mind not holding court for fifteen years; he could even go fifty years without holding court!

However... no matter how much he wanted to, Ying Su had to look at the points!

A-level character summoning requires 100 points!

S-level character summoning requires 1,000 points!

SS-level character summoning requires 10,000 points!

SSS-level character summoning requires 100,000 points!

And an SSS-level character like Li Li Yuanba was the beginner's gift package given by the system!

In addition, the system had a default function.

Every time the points reached 100, the system would automatically summon a character!

If this default function was not turned off, the system would summon automatically!

Ying Su pondered for a moment and decided to turn off this function for the time being!

For now, he had Li Li Yuanba, Yu Yu Huatian, Cai Lun, and Zheng He, which was enough for the time being!

As for the points... save them!

When he saved up enough 100,000 points, he would summon another SSS-level character. By then, he would let Lord Lord Xinling, Zhang Zhang Juzheng, and others govern the country, and let Li Li Yuanba go out to expand!

Let this world belong to the Great Qin!

Cannot let future generations continue to learn foreign languages!

PS: Seeking flowers and evaluation tickets!!!!

018. The Great Qin flourished under the First Emperor and perished under the First Emperor!

These past few days, Ying Su had been quite busy.

Before, although he had thought about rebelling.

But... it was just a thought.

He really didn't expect that he would one day succeed!

Now that he had suddenly become emperor, he needed to cram some knowledge and understand the current situation of the country.

And after truly understanding the current situation of the country, Ying Su had to sigh that Ying Zheng's previous reminder was correct.

It's easy to be an emperor, as long as you have good luck!

It's not easy to be a good emperor; diligence in government is the most basic thing!

Handling all kinds of affairs properly without causing chaos is the passing line for a good emperor!

It's even harder to be a good emperor praised by everyone, because everyone's interests are different; how could everyone praise you?

And even if Ying Su didn't want to be a good emperor, and didn't want to be an emperor praised by everyone, he didn't feel it was easy!

Because the things inside were too complicated.

He found it hard to imagine how Ying Zheng could manage so many government affairs while touring the country.

Moreover, he could still insist on centralization while handling so many government affairs!

Yes!

Centralization!

It looks like more power!

But to be honest, it's also more tiring!

This is much more tiring than the enfeoffment system.

Yes, the enfeoffment system divides a country into many small pieces and lets them govern themselves; as the main country, you only need to collect taxes from the vassal states.

But... what about centralization? So many places, all under the jurisdiction of the emperor alone; how could it not be tiring?
