Chapter 379 Celebrating the whole world

"Bang!Bang!Bang!"

The night sky all over the city, fireworks bloom everywhere, and the celebratory flow of people make the streets of Xianyang City extremely lively.

During this festival where all the worlds celebrate, hundreds of officials in the court also enjoyed the fireworks ceremony on the city of Xianyang Palace.

Not long ago, Li Yang set the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival as the legal festivals of the Qin Dynasty. In addition to the day off for the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival, the Spring Festival is also a half-month holiday.

Whether it is a private workshop or a national engineering project, it should comply with the statutory holidays of the national holiday.

Of course, if you really can't take a holiday, you will be able to pay three times the wages, which is overtime.

In addition, Li Yang also stipulates that the first and fifteenth days of each month are also rest days. It is also called the beginning of the month and the middle of the month.

On the surface, two days off a month will obviously affect the production of private workshops and the progress of national projects, but Li Yang understands that only by combining work and rest can the production efficiency be truly improved.

Especially in the Qin Dynasty, all labor was not replaced by machinery and was completed entirely by manpower. Especially national civil engineering projects like the construction of canals were extremely difficult.

Before this type of national projects implemented the bidding system, it was normal to reduce the number of employees by nearly half in a year under hard labor. However, even if this type of national projects now implement the bidding system and contract with merchants, the people have the autonomy and can choose to do the work period, one month, three months, or half a year, one year?

However, if the people want to do it for a year, it will almost be like having their lives to exchange for it.

Therefore, under such high-intensity hard work, it is basically difficult for anyone to last for too long, which greatly affects the progress of the project.

In this way, it is obviously necessary to give appropriate rest days every month.

Like later generations, working for five days a week is obviously not practical in the current Qin State. However, it is reasonable to take two days off every month.

First, it will not affect the construction period; second, it can improve work efficiency; third, it can also ensure the physical and mental health of migrant workers.

However, people at that time did not understand the benefits of this change. Only Li Yang himself knew that although this was only a small step forward, this small step was a big step in history and a big change.

To put it in a small way, this change has improved the productivity of the entire society, and to put it in a big way, it is the society's respect and protection of human rights, which is of far-reaching significance.

It is precisely because of this that the Qin Dynasty became the first country in human history to implement legal holidays. This innovation naturally became a must-take the exam for history classes for later students.

"Taifu, look at the current Great Qin Dynasty. The people are well-fed and well-dressed. The people are peaceful and peaceful. All these are lonely before. "Fusu looked at the gorgeous fireworks above Xianyang City and the subjects celebrating on the streets below the city, and shouted to Li Yang excitedly.

Li Yang smiled slightly, because he never expected that Daqin would undergo such a big change in just three years.

Of course, the civil and military officials present could not hide their excitement under this situation.

Who would have thought that in the early days of Qin, the old and weak farming were not enough to maintain warmth, and the military pay and taxes were even more serious. In just three years, the new policy completely reversed the situation.

Nowadays, not only does grain production increase and the national treasury fill, but also unify the northern grasslands. Who dares to think about all this?

At that moment, Fusu picked up the wine glass in his hand and said to Li Yang with respect: "If the Qin Dynasty can have today's scene, the Taifu has made great contributions. We should respect the Taifu with a glass!"

When everyone heard this, they picked up the wine glasses in their hands and said together: "Be respectful to the king!"

"Today's Great Qin is the result of the unity of everyone. I respect you all!"

Pretending to behave and taking credit and being proud are two different things. Li Yang knew this, so he quickly got up, picked up the wine glass in his hand, and drank it with everyone modestly.

"Bang!Bang!Bang!"

At this moment when everyone raised their glasses to celebrate the Qin Dynasty, the fireworks in Xianyang City seemed to be waiting for this moment, flying in the sky and blooming...

Under the echo of these gorgeous fireworks, Fusu felt a stream of passion rushing all over his body, and a passionate passion that had never been seen before came naturally.

As the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty who is in charge of the country, he deeply understood that only by allowing the Qin Dynasty to be rich and strong can he live up to the Qin Dynasty's country and the people of the world.

Thinking of this, Fusu drank all the wine in one go, and shouted with great excitement: "The Qin Dynasty has changed, the whole country is united! The country is rich and the people are strong, and will last forever!"

The ministers seemed to be moved by this atmosphere and couldn't help but shout together:

"The Qin Dynasty reforms, the whole country is united! The country is rich and the people are strong, and will last forever!"

"The Qin Dynasty reforms, the whole country is united! The country is rich and the people are strong, and will last forever!"

“…………”

More than 10,000 imperial guards in Xianyang Palace seemed to be infected by this passionate passion, and they also shouted together: "The Qin Dynasty has changed, the whole country is united! The country is rich and the people are strong, and will last forever!"

The sound of shouting is higher and higher.

From the Xianyang Palace, it has been spreading outside the palace, and then the thousands of people in the Xianyang City shouted together:

"The Qin Dynasty reforms, the whole country is united! The country is rich and the people are strong, and will last forever!"

"The Qin Dynasty reforms, the whole country is united! The country is rich and the people are strong, and will last forever!"

“…………”

The shouts shook the sky, rushed straight to the clouds and night, and resounded throughout Xianyang City.

At this exciting time, a captain of the Ministry of War hurried to Han Xin, the Minister of War, and reported: "Report, General Han, emergency military information is coming from the border!"

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Han Xin's face immediately faded, and hurriedly took the military information report. After seeing it, he quickly said to Fusu: "Report to Your Highness, the military information report is coming from the border. Yuezhi raised an army to Wusun and Qiang tribes a few days ago!"

"oh?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

Li Yang was also stunned for a moment because he remembered that the Yuezhi sent troops to Wusun. According to the original historical records, in the late Qin Dynasty, Wusun, led by Nandoumi, was a small nomadic tribe. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, both Wusun and Yue clans lived in the Hexi region, living at the east and west ends of the Hexi Corridor, with Wusun in the west and Yuezhi in the east, roughly bounded by Shandan County in Zhangye.

In 177 BC, the Dayuezhi launched an attack on Wusun, who was nomadic in the western part of the Hexi Corridor (now from Zhangye to Dunhuang in Gansu). In the end, Wusun was defeated and the king Nandoumi died in battle. The remaining Wusun tribes fled to the Huns, and the Dayuezhi controlled the Dunhuang area.

In other words, the year when the Yuezhi attacked Wusun should have been in 177 BC, and now it is 207 BC, which means that the Yuezhi attacked Wusun by thirty years earlier.

Why...this matter is ahead of schedule?

However, after thinking about it, Li Yang suddenly realized it. After all, because of his time travel, the situation around the Qin Dynasty had changed dramatically. Now all the Huns have been unified by the Qin Dynasty, which is obviously a danger for the Yuezhi. Therefore, it is reasonable that Yuezhi expands to the southwest in advance.
