Chapter 222 What is your Zhao Kingdom going to do?

The next morning, Gao Yang followed General Liu Yu and hurried to the capital of Zhaoguo.

Along the way, they saw the bustling civilians on the official road, slightly closer to the city. They set up vegetable stalls on both sides of the road, with the purpose of allowing passers-by to buy some food on the road for their own consumption.

Seeing this scene, Gao Bing pointed to these vegetable stalls and asked Liu Yu: "General, what's the situation? Why did all the vegetable stalls go to the official road outside the city to sell vegetables?"

Liu Yu looked back at Gao Yang's surprised expression, looking like he had never seen the world before. He explained to Gao Yang with some ridicule: "This is a new policy ordered by my king. During the war, the vegetable stalls in the official road became a camp, and in the spare time, these vegetable stalls were still vegetable stalls."

After hearing what Liu Yu said, he still didn't quite understand. Maybe he didn't understand what he meant. Gao Bing wanted Liu Yu to explain what business and leisure time were.

"General, I don't understand this. Can you explain it again?"

"The vegetable merchants at these vegetable stalls are both farmers and soldiers."

This is actually a comparison with Qin State. Qin State implemented a farming and war system, serving as soldiers in war and farmers in leisure.

The difference between Zhao State and Qin State is that these ordinary people can choose their professions at will. As long as they can bring profits to themselves, they can do any profession, and there is no need to say farming land.

However, farming is still the top priority. In addition to the imperial court's special order to designate certain people to farm, these farmers can also find another way and find a side job to provide double profits for themselves.

This is the first time Gao Yang heard of this situation. In fact, Feng Hao was also improved based on the system of the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. The dishes on both sides of the official road were divided into two groups, basically every three days inside and outside the city.

Three days later, the vegetable stalls outside the city need to enter the city to operate, while the vegetable stalls inside the city need to push carts to go outside the city to operate, so that everyone can make a considerable profit.

"So that's it...it seems that your country's system is indeed very perfect." Gao Yong couldn't help but exclaim.

Liu Yu replied with a hearty smile: "Actually, there is nothing to be admired. This is the king's attention. In fact, we ministers, speculate that the holy will be beheaded, but the king is different. He actively wants us to speculate on his intentions and then implement it."

This was indeed beyond Gao Yang's expectations. Since ancient times, the saint's intentions cannot be understood. If you do this, you will be exiled to the frontier at the least, and if you are severely punished.

If you do it too much, it may affect the Nine Clans.

Soon, they came to the capital of Zhaoguo. Wang Yanzhang was in charge of the Ximen guard post today. Some days ago, in order to take care of his younger brother Wang Yantong, Wang Yanzhang specially proposed to the court to return to the capital and ask someone to come to the capital for him.

Wang Yantong's injuries have almost healed, at least he can move freely now.

"General Wang, the Sui Dynasty mission has arrived!" Liu Yu came to the west gate of the capital and shouted to Wang Yanzhang above.

Seeing Liu Yu personally bringing Gao Yang from the Sui Dynasty, Wang Yanzhang did not dare to be negligent at all and quickly opened the Ningshou Gate, which was specially prepared for other countries to come to the court.

Liu Yu led the Sui Dynasty and Zhaoguo delegation into Ningshou Gate, and Wang Yanzhang personally walked down the city tower to pay tribute to Liu Yu.

"Thank you for your hard work, great generals, sirs." Wang Yanzhang said to everyone in Zhaoguo's mission.

Liu Yu stepped forward and asked, "Is the king in the palace now?"

Wang Yanzhang nodded. Hearing that they had come back, Feng Hao quickly brought the civil and military officials to the palace to wait a while in advance.

Soon, Liu Yu led the missions of the two countries all the way east, and the people on both sides made way for the missions of the two countries. Moreover, the people loved the general of Zhao Kingdom very much. He walked in front, and many people sent this and that for the missions of Zhao Kingdom who returned.

All these Gaobing were seen. It seemed that the fruits he had gained this time were very fruitful, which is why Zhaoguo was able to rise in the world in such a short time.

The people support the monarch and the officials of Zhaoguo, which makes no one feel dissatisfied.

"Prime Minister Gao, all the officials of the Sui Dynasty mission, please dismount!" Liu Yu came to the gate of the royal city, and Zu Shi, who was responsible for greeting them, came to them with a thousand imperial guards.

After these people dismounted, Zu Ti waved his hand, and the imperial guards behind him placed their horses in the stable, while Liu Yu and the horses of the Zhao Kingdom mission were placed in the stables dedicated to their Zhao Kingdom.

Zu Ti stepped forward to Liu Yu and said, "General, the king has been waiting for a long time. Please take everyone in the mission to meet the king quickly."

"Okay, Prime Minister Gao, please follow me." Liu Yu turned his head to face the missions of the two countries and took them into the royal city.

Li Li, who was standing outside the palace, saw Liu Yu and a large number of people, who had never seen such a big scene before.

He calmed down his emotions, and soon, Liu Yu and others came to the front, and everyone bowed outside the palace.

"Long live the king Sheng'an!"

Li Li shouted in a voice outside the palace: "Gu'an, the king has an imperial edict, and ask the Sui Dynasty mission, the general and others to enter the palace together!"

Everyone kneeling outside said, "Thank you, King."

Immediately afterwards, everyone went up the steps together. Feng Hao sat in front of them and saw a large number of people walking in. Feng Hao calmed down his emotions. At this time, he must not be cowardly.

After they came to Feng Hao, Liu Yu, on behalf of the Zhao Kingdom mission, told Feng Hao about the results of his mission to Shu Kingdom, and returned to their position. The only one who stayed in the center of the hall was the Sui Dynasty mission.

"Long live the missions led by the foreign ministers!" Gao Feng and the members of the Sui Dynasty sent a bow to Feng Hao.

Feng Hao, who was sitting on it, looked calm, then nodded and replied, "Get up, Prime Minister Gao traveled thousands of miles to Zhaoguo, I am really in a position to welcome you."

Gao Yang and others stood up, nodded slightly to Feng Hao and said, "Foreign ministers have never met the king, nor have they met with the king. If they do not meet him, it will be harmless."

Everyone laughed, and Feng Hao said Gao Yang something was a bit meaningful.

But soon the two of them turned back to the topic. Gao Yong asked why the Zhaoguo army had to run around the circle in the early morning and even shouted slogans.

"This is a training method for our Zhao Kingdom to train troops. Only in this way can the army strengthen its body and kill a few more enemies during wars in the future." Feng Hao explained to Gao Yang solemnly.

Gao Bing said: "Have you ever thought that Sui and Zhao are brotherly countries? Did you do this a little disrupt the normal life of our Sui Dynasty?"

"Since the day when the world wanted to divide our country, Zhao Kingdom has no alliance with the countries below the world." Feng Hao told Gao Yang clearly that Zhao Kingdom has no allies.
