In the ancient painting that Meng Jiaren gave me, there are two classical women.
Originally it was said to be the two sisters Meng An and Meng Jing, but later I left a message saying that it was not them, but Meng Jiaren herself and another woman.
And the woman in front of me right now is one of the women in the painting.
"What is your relationship with Meng Jiaren?"
I don't know what the situation is.
The two of them were in a painting.
One person gave the painting to me, while the other person threatened to take back the sandwich in the painting using despicable means. map inside.
"Meng Jiaren, hahaha, it's funny, how can she choose such a tacky name?
This is not her Huaiqing character."
Damin laughed.
"Huaiqing, who is she called Huaiqing?"
I frowned slightly, but I have to say, this name sounds much better than Meng Jiaren.
"You don't know Huaiqing?"
Damin looked at me with some confusion, then forced a smile and said, "It seems that you have learned a lot about history."
I feel sweat on my forehead.
Is this Huaiqing another historical celebrity?
"Stop talking nonsense and just tell me who Huaiqing is," I asked.
"The Widow Ba Huaiqing was also an extraordinary woman who was extremely wealthy at that time.
Before Qin Shihuang agreed to the Six Kingdoms, she was still the king of Qin.
At that time, Qin Shihuang even borrowed money from Huaiqing to use as military pay."
Damin's words were very plain, but his face There was a contemptuous smile on his face.
"Qin Shihuang asked a widow to borrow money."
I opened my mouth.
It was a strange news.
"Hey, what's so strange about this?
There are many rich people in today's society, including super rich people, but they are not as rich as the enemy.
What's more, there is no emperor now."
Damin's face was dull.
Said: "Huaiqing's family controlled a cinnabar mine.
According to today's terms, it was a monopoly.
At that time, her family was the only one who owned a cinnabar mine.
Yes, this cinnabar is the current cinnabar.
Cinnabar can be refined into mercury.
The mercury in Qin Shihuang’s tomb was provided by the Huaiqing family.
At that time, there were about 50,000 people in Bajun, 10,000 of whom were Huaiqing tribesmen, including the substitutes.
They work as part-time workers and have a private army of more than 3,000 people to protect the family’s minerals and wealth.”
I opened my mouth in surprise.
Now I have a complete idea in my mind.
Just like our township, the total of more than ten villages only has more than 10,000 people.
This means that the people in the entire township are members of their family.
In addition, there are Have a private army Diaosi Killer Puppet Drop God What is the concept of being able to have a private army?
"Then why did she give me this picture?"
I looked at Damin in confusion and said, "The two people in this picture are you and her.
When did you draw it?"
"In our time, there was no paper, but the technology of painted pottery has been very advanced.

Just look at the Terracotta Warriors and Horses over there.
This painting was painted by Yuan Tiangang against a painted pottery screen.
The women in the painting are indeed me and She, but it was Qin Shihuang's intention at that time, otherwise I would never have continued to draw pictures with her, a second-hand person," Damin said angrily.
I really didn’t know how to answer.
From what she meant, she and Huaiqing had never dealt with each other.
I said, "There is some grudge between you, right?"
"Grudges," Damin sneered and said, "Widow Ba, as the name suggests, is a dead man.
The First Emperor also built a chastity platform for her, called Huaiqing Terrace.
But in the end, oh my god, I actually competed with this girl for the First Emperor."
The favor is indeed a sign and a memorial."
My ears turned red.
Damin's scolding was really unpleasant, like a shrew.
Her image was completely different from the impression Meng Jiaren, oh no, Huaiqing gave me.
On the contrary, I think Huaiqing's character is better than hers.
But it seems that their fight for favor has nothing to do with me.
What I care about now is the life and death of Xiao Min and Luo Carpenter.
I said to her: "I'm not interested in your fight, but I want to ask you what Huaiqing wants to do with such a painting."
"Then you still need to ask.
She wants to use your help to dig up the tomb of the First Emperor, avenge her family, and collect debts from the First Emperor."
Damin said bitterly.
"That's not right.
Why do I feel something is wrong?
Didn't she get close to Qin Shihuang?
Why did she want to dig up Qin Shihuang's tomb again?"
I asked.
"In fact, the First Emperor didn't love her at all.
She was just a broken shoe.
The First Emperor just used her and her family.
Before he unified the six kingdoms, he needed her money.
After he unified the six kingdoms, he also recruited They sent many people from their families to build the Great Wall and the tombs, but none of these thousands of people came back alive.
And do you think they will get back the money they lent to Qin Shihuang in the end?"
Damin asked with a sneer.
When I think about it, this is a business with someone in power.
How can I get back the money I borrowed?
If I forcefully collect the debt, I'm afraid I'll die faster.
And that's what Qin Shihuang did.
You can't afford to hurt Xingxing, a dead man who got involved in a palace fight.
“When the First Emperor built the mausoleum, not only did he mobilize thousands of people from the Huaiqing family, but even the hundreds of tons of mercury in it were supplied by the Huaiqing family, and the cinnabar used by the First Emperor to make elixirs and medicines also came from the Huaiqing family.
It’s not like you’ll be buried with your whole family,” Damin continued to sneer.
"The grudge between you has nothing to do with me."
I said, "She gave me this picture.
If you want it, I can give it to you, but you must promise me not to hurt these people."
"Hey, don't worry, I won't hurt them.
They are all my brothers and sisters.
How could I hurt them?"

She pretended to be kind and said: "It was not easy to save Xiao Min and her father.
I How could it possibly hurt them?”
I frowned slightly, she was threatening me again, but according to her words, it seemed that she had saved Xiao Min and Luo Carpenter, meaning they were still in their original bodies.
At this moment, my phone beeped twice.
I gently picked up the phone, clicked on it, and saw it was from grandpa.
Content: Xiaofan, something bad happened, the bodies of the father and daughter were missing.
From this point of view, Xiao Min and her father are the two people I know, and it seems that they both still have their original memories.
Xiao Min had already questioned me just now.
"I'm curious as to how these two ancient beauties managed to live to this day across thousands of years."
I asked, "Is it possible that Qin Shihuang's elixir of immortality was refined?"
"This is not what you should ask.
What you have to do now is give me the map of Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum, and then get out of here.
Don't try to have any ideas about Qin Shihuang's Mausoleum."
Damin continued to warn.
I looked at Xiao Min, then at Carpenter Luo, and several other people.
At this moment, these people were all hostages in Damin's hands, and I didn't dare to take action at all.
I untied the backpack at the back, took out the scroll of ancient paintings from the backpack, and handed it to Damin.
Damin took it and opened the ancient painting in front of me, then stared angrily at Huaiqing in the ancient painting, gritted his teeth and cursed: "Bitch, damn bitch":
