Chapter 385 Xiang Yu's March
Wild boar hunting registration office.
This is a place that Tang Yu named arbitrarily.
The main purpose is simply to make things simple and convenient.
As long as it's catchy, it's fine.
And this place did indeed play a huge role.
When Xiang Yu returned carrying the wild boar's carcass, the expressions of those around him changed repeatedly.
"Look! It's Liu Yu again! He's hunted another wild boar this big!"
"My goodness, she looks like she weighs more than 500 pounds!"
"Yes, just by looking at it, it weighs more than 500 pounds."
“Let me tell you, this wild boar definitely weighs more than 500 pounds. A wild boar this big, or even any bigger, could be called a monster.”
"I never expected that Liu Yu would kill seven or eight people in less than a week. He's the real monster!"
"My goodness, it seems like he's a shoo-in for first place this time!"
"It seems like it's a done deal. After all, how could a human be stronger than a wild boar?"
The surrounding chatter only intensified the smugness on Xiang Yu's face.
And this Liu Yu was the name Xiang Yu used in disguise.
After all, Tang Yu must have heard of Xiang Yu's name.
Even if his expression changes, he will still possess unparalleled martial prowess and his own name.
In any case, one can still make some connections.
Tang Yu was not a fool at all; on the contrary, he was an extremely intelligent person.
So, just to be on the safe side, Xiang Yu made a decision.
He decided to change his name.
Yes, that's why Liu Yu appeared.
For some reason, every time he heard his name called Liu Yu, he felt a surge of anger that made him grit his teeth.
However, he could not explain the source of his anger.
As Xiang Yu slammed the enormous wild boar onto the table, he looked up at the official in the registration office and spoke.
"I want to see the leaderboard."
The official shuddered at Xiang Yu's menacing aura.
He then pulled out a leaderboard from behind him.
Xiang Yu was extremely pleased to see Liu Yu at the top of the list.
Then look down.
He nodded in satisfaction when he discovered that the second-place finisher had only killed four wild boars.
He then looked at the Qin official in front of him and said earnestly.
"How long until the rankings set by the Grand Preceptor end?"
After a moment's thought, the man answered without hesitation.
"There are still about three weeks left before the end of the rankings as stipulated by the Grand Preceptor."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu nodded.
Three weeks?
To be honest, he was confident that he could bring the number of wild boars he had killed to close to one hundred in the past three weeks.
This is Xiang Yu's confidence.
Not to mention wild boars, Xiang Yu dared to fight even bears and tigers in the mountains.
After all, he is known as the "unique" super humanoid Gundam!
Now, his only goal is to gain Tang Yu's trust and infiltrate Tang Yu's inner circle.
After all, none of them, including their underlings, could restrain Tang Yu at present.
The only option left is to offer myself up to the tiger.
Thinking of this, Xiang Yu felt a chill run down his spine.
After all, he was terrified after being beaten by Tang Yu.
He was very worried that Tang Yu would discover their conspiracy.
So what should they do?
But thinking about this, he wasn't too worried.
Because only a few close confidants within the anti-Qin alliance knew about what he was planning.
It even included his good brother, Zhao Zilong.
I doubt any of these people will tell anyone.
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu nodded in satisfaction.
He turned and walked outside again, intending to hunt wild boars.
Everyone else sighed with emotion.
"It seems Liu Yu is destined to be number one this time!"
"Who says it's not?"
"We really can't compare to their efficiency and speed in killing wild boars, or their respect for the imperial advisor."
These people all took Xiang Yu's stunned and fearful reaction upon hearing Tang Yu's name as respect for Tang Yu.
Xiang Yu didn't know how to explain it either.
……
"Mr. Tang, may I ask what we should do with so much money left in the account?"
Looking at the money in the account, Ying Zheng truly felt that he had never fought such a wealthy battle in his life.
Although he, Ying Zheng, inherited the Mandate of Heaven and succeeded six wise rulers of the Qin state, he took over the Qin state's foundation.
It can be said that they were born with a head start.
But now, seeing such a prosperous treasury and the increasingly extravagant incomes of the people, he felt genuinely excited.
After all, he had been exempted from taxes this time.
Not only were these nobles exempted, but even the common people were exempted.
The people are able to ensure they won't go hungry for the next year simply by relying on potatoes and sweet potatoes.
This was practically a myth in ancient times.
In ancient times, simply not going hungry was considered a sure way to earn the title of Emperor Wen.
But this person is Qin Shi Huang, and the mere Emperor Wen is really being treated unfairly.
"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, there is a feeling that there will be more money to come."
"How about we spend it?"
Tang Yu's eyes revealed excitement this time.
He never imagined that a single argument could cost him so much money.
Can this kind of thing happen more often in the future?
Instead of stopping him, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with a hint of fervor.
“I think Mr. Tang is right, this kind of thing can indeed happen more often.”
"But where did this money go?"
After thinking about this, Tang Yu said.
"Your Majesty, the people of Qin have entered the harvest season."
"According to our statistics and observations, the harvest is excellent."
"So there are no major disasters at present."
"Why don't we use this money to repair the road?"
"Building roads?"
After repeating his words, Ying Zheng looked at Tang Yu with some confusion.
He really didn't understand why the road had to be built first.
Because whether it's used to invest in the people's infrastructure or to strengthen the military.
Or perhaps it's about building some magnificent structures; these are all things that should be conceivable.
But road construction was something I really couldn't have imagined.
Tang Yu nodded seriously.
“If you want to be rich, build roads first.”
"Your Majesty, trust me, building this road is absolutely the right thing to do."
As Tang Yu said this, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.
Then he spoke in a calm voice.
"Moreover, Your Majesty, the people of Qin are now of high morale and their hearts are with us."
"At a time when the whole country is united, if we want to build roads, it will definitely be a much more efficient activity."
Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded.
Although Ying Zheng knew nothing, it was alright.
He has Mr. Tang by his side.
All he needs to do is say, "Me too," when Mr. Tang is speaking.
