Something from Bai Yu's right hand?
When Wei Liao and Li Si heard this, they quickly looked over.
In White Feather's right hand, there was a round object that seemed to be immature.
"Brother, is this also food?!”
Qin Shi Huang looked at Bai Yu's expression and said.
"Not bad."
"This is a potato!" Bai Yu said.
"Potato is different from sweet potato. Sweet potato can be eaten raw, cooked, or roasted.”
"One mu of potatoes can produce at least 30 catties, and when the yield is high, it can reach 40 catties!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Qin Shi Huang and the others were stunned.
At least 30 catties, maybe even 40 catties?
This was even higher than the yield of sweet potatoes. Moreover, the most important thing about sweet potatoes was that they could be eaten raw!
"Sweet potatoes can produce at least 20 catties, and potatoes can produce at least 30 catties!!”
The First Emperor's hands trembled slightly. Words could not describe his current throbbing emotions.
Once sweet potatoes and potatoes were planted on a large scale, the harvest would definitely be very large!
According to the law, the commoners only needed to pay 30% of the taxes!
With that, Great Qin's residents would no longer starve!
"Potato and sweet potato are the same. You don't have to take good care of them.”
"There are only a few seeds left in the mountains," Bai Yu said."I've already ordered people to bring them over.”
"Sweet potatoes, potatoes…"
Li Si's voice was trembling.!”
Perhaps only a divine item could harvest so much food!
"Brother, I thank you on behalf of the people of Great Qin!”
The First Emperor couldn't calm his excitement and bowed to White Feather.
"Big brother, you can't!"
Bai Yu was shocked and quickly stopped Qin Shi Huang.
"Your Majesty, although this subject admires the Grand Commander, Your Majesty is extremely noble. You must not do this.”
"If Your Majesty wishes to thank the Great Commander, you can also issue an edict to treat him with the courtesy of a statesman!" Li Si hurriedly advised.”
"I agree!"
Wei Liao said respectfully," Whether it's the Imperial Examinations, establishing the Embroidered Uniform Guards, changing the laws, or even taking out such a divine item to completely solve the problem of Great Qin's food supply, you should treat him with the courtesy of a Kingdom Scholar!”
To be honest, Bai Yu's current treatment could already be considered the courtesy of a Kingdom Knight!
Li Si and Wei Liao wanted to announce this to the entire Great Qin Empire!
When Li Si said that, Bai Yu looked at him in surprise.
Bai Yu did not expect Li Si to speak up for him.
After hearing Wei Liao and Li Si's words, Qin Shi Huang nodded slightly and said,""Zhao Gao."
"Your subject is here!"
Zhao Gao quickly said.
"Pass down my decree. The nine ministers and the commander of the Brocade Guard, Bai Yu, will treat you with the courtesy of a national scholar…This is my fortune, the people's fortune, and the fortune of Great Qin. From now on, Bai Yu will be ranked above the twentieth rank.”
"In the future, when Bai Yu gives birth to a son, he will be ranked as the Marquis and will never be abolished!”
In the middle, the First Emperor told him about White Feather's deeds and finally gave him some special privileges.
There was no need to kneel in court. Previously, Bai Yu had attended the ceremony, but he was interrupted by the First Emperor.
Especially the last sentence, Bai Yu was now the chief justice of the Nine Ministers Court and the commander of the Brocade Guard. He was even ranked above Marquis Che. If he had a son in the future, he would be Marquis Che!
Chehou was already the highest rank of a 20th Rank Noble!
Simply put, Bai Yu was conferred the title of Marquis!
Although he was a marquis, his rank was above marquis Che. Now, with his status…his status was probably higher than the prime minister!
However, Li Si's expression did not change at all when he heard that Emperor Shi had conferred the title, and his heart did not waver.
Although Li Si was initially worried that his status would drop, he understood now!
Although he had only been working with Bai Yu for half a month, Li Si already knew his personality.
It was also because of this that Li Si was not worried about his status dropping.
…………
"Zhao Gao, have you memorized it?"
Qin Shi Huang looked at Zhao Gao and said.
"I will remember it."
Zhao Gao's forehead broke out in cold sweat as he quickly replied.
Then, the First Emperor looked at Bai Yu and said,""Brother, what do you think of my decision?”
"I'll leave everything to Big Brother."
Although White Feather wanted to say something, he changed his words after seeing the First Emperor's expression.
He wondered if his current position was too high.
And…it was too fast?
It had only been a short while, but White Feather was already standing in this position.
In the beginning, he was only the sworn brother of the First Emperor, then the nine ministers of the Supreme Court, then the commander of the Brocade Guard, and now he was a marquis, whose rank was higher than that of Marquis Che!
Li Si had put in a lot of effort to become the Prime Minister. He had worked hard for a long time before he was finally made the Prime Minister.
Thankfully, Li Si did not think of that. If he did, Bai Yu reckoned that Li Si would have become autistic, and it would be the kind of deep autistic!
"Hahahaha! Good!"
Qin Shi Huang laughed loudly. He had never been so happy before.
First, he took back the land and shops, and then he solved the problem of food for Great Qin's people. Everything made the First Emperor incredibly happy!
"Your Majesty, I have a request!"
Wei Liao said.
"What's the matter?" asked the First Emperor.”
"I hope Your Majesty will let me be responsible for sowing the sweet potatoes and potatoes!" Wei Liao said respectfully.”
"Yes."
Qin Shi Huang nodded." State Lieutenant, I'll leave this matter to you. Remember, remember, you must be careful!"”
"This subject obeys the decree!"
Wei Liao said,"I swear with my life!"”
"The state lieutenant is too serious."
"Let nature take its course," the First Emperor said.”
"Big brother is right."
" Sweet potatoes and potatoes are very easy to survive," Bai Yu said." So, what the state officer said is too serious."”
As he spoke, White Feather passed the sweet potato and potatoes to Wei Liao, then said,""I'll send the remaining seeds to Lord Wei Liao's residence. I'll write down some steps to sow the seeds and send them to your residence.”
"Thank you, Grand Commander."
Wei Liao bowed.
