Outside Xianyang City, on the shore of the Wei River, there was a young man named Ying Zhao, guarding several acres of thin fields and reading yellowed bamboo slips.
Others laughed at him for being pedantic - in an era of wars, could farming and studying be enough to make a living? Can you stop the tiger and wolf army?
He didn't argue, he just got a glimpse of people's hearts in the classics when he was enlightened on the field.
Until one day, the war came to the doorstep of the house, the neighbors were displaced, and the bones were exposed.
Only then did he put down the grass and pick up the long sword.
No one knew that this seemingly dull boy who studied farming had a world-wide ambition hidden in his mind, and his eyes reflected the ambition to conquer all parts of the world.
He was used to the cowardice of the Six Kingdoms, and he also saw through the decay of the old system. So he stepped on the bones of the troubled times, using agriculture as his foundation and law as his blade, and walked step by step before the King of Qin.
"Your Majesty, if you want to stabilize the world, you must first stabilize the people's livelihood; if you want to stabilize the people's livelihood, you must first rectify the law."
From then on, Guanzhong had a name that frightened the six countries.
He persuaded the farmers to make Qin's warehouses full; he prepared the army to make the Qin army unstoppable; he planned long-term strategies and pointed his sword directly at the capitals of the six kingdoms.
In the end, look at how the fire heirloomed by farming and reading can start a prairie fire and turn into a raging flame that sweeps the world, helping the Qin cavalry to crush other countries and create the glorious hegemony of "I am the First Emperor"!
