Not only did Qin Yu bring a big black pot, but he also brought enough salted duck eggs.
When the first ray of dawn shone on the earth, Qin Yu and his group of six sat around a makeshift stove...
Drinking a mouthful of warm sticky porridge and a mouthful of salted duck eggs was extremely enjoyable!
"The yield per mu is actually two thousand jin!”
" It's amazing!!!"
"Sir, where did you find such a divine item?？”
Young Master Fusu did a rough calculation and realized that Qin Yu was right. The paddy field's yield was more than two thousand catties per mu!!
"So, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles.”
"Stop reading those so-called books of sages and go out for a walk when you have time.”
"That way…you won't have such prejudice against Old Zhao anymore.”
Qin Yu didn't answer. Instead, he lectured her.
"Yes! Zhao Fu will follow your teachings!"
Young Master Fu Su cupped his hands respectfully.
"Old Zhao, how does it taste?" Qin Yu looked at Ying Zheng with a smile.
"Fragrant! Although the production was not as good as potatoes, the taste was a hundred times better!!”Ying Zheng said happily.
With this hybrid rice, Great Qin no longer had to consider whether or not to cancel the rice production.
Not only could they not cancel it, but they also had to vigorously promote it!!
Especially in Old Chu, where the water system was developed and there were countless paddy fields!
In time, Old Chu will become Great Qin's largest granary!!
Oh, there were also many fertile paddy fields in the Baiyue Land!
It seemed that the conquest of the Yue should be put on the agenda…
While Ying Zheng was thinking, Qin Yu had already turned to look at Young Master Fusu.
"Is Great Qin's food sufficient now?”
"Is there any land to grow tea leaves?”
he asked.
"Enough! Too much!"
"It's really as you said, everyone in Great Qin can afford tea leaves!!”
Young Master Fu Su no longer had any doubts about Qin Yu…
"Hehehe, in the short term, it's better not to let them afford to drink!”
"I'll have to exchange it for warhorses with the Xiongnu and Hu!”
"The benefits of trading with the Xiongnu and Hu are endless!”
"We can also arrange for spies…to investigate the situation of the Xiongnu and Hu!!”
"In the future, if I sell this information to the Imperial Court and the First Emperor, I'll earn…more than tea leaves!”
Qin Yu spoke with assurance.
Ying Zheng, Meng Tian, and Young Master Fusu's eyes lit up.
Before Great Qin unified the six countries, the seven countries liked to use merchants as spies.
First of all, merchants had low status and were not eye-catching.
Secondly…even if the two countries were at war, it was not suitable to kill merchants.
This was because merchants would bring many goods that the country did not have before!!
In this day and age, everyone looked down on merchants, especially the Hundred Schools of Philosophy. None of them spoke up for merchants or cared about them.
However, it was undeniable that merchants were extremely important to the country and the daily lives of the people!
Ying Zheng thought,'There's no need to sell me…I am the First Emperor!'
However, he said,"Alright, it's settled then!"”
"Old Gao, get some people to collect all the food here first!”
"Then, according to the land we have…plan the planting of tea leaves!”
"As for the processing and production of the tea leaves, it will be handed over to Brother Qin Yu again!”
Ying Zheng said.
Hearing Ying Zheng call him, Zhao Gao raised his head with a confused look.
Getting someone to harvest rice…was possible!
Leave it to me, Zhao Gao!
Could he plan the planting of tea leaves according to the land he owned?
All of Great Qin belongs to you, Your Majesty…how can I plan this?
As for this matter…Ying Zheng really didn't count on Zhao Gao!
Wasn't he just acting? It wouldn't be fun if his identity was exposed…
Of course, the entire Great Qin belonged to the First Emperor, Ying Zheng!
Ying Zheng already had a preliminary idea in his mind... He planned to directly plan a few counties, which would be specially used to grow tea leaves!
However, before planting it, they had to bring it to the court for discussion!
In addition, they had to send people to inspect the area…to see if those places were suitable for planting tea leaves!
This was a series of extremely tedious work!!
Fortunately, the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, had unparalleled power, and the Great Qin Empire followed his example with great efficiency!
It shouldn't take long for it to be settled!!
After returning to Xianyang City…
Before the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, brought Li Si and the other ministers into Zhangtai Palace for a meeting, Li Si led his ministers to ask for an audience!!
"Your Majesty, last night, there was a traitor on the outskirts of Xianyang City!!”
"They destroyed the canal and flooded hundreds of acres of fertile farmland!!”
"Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly!!”
The moment he entered Zhangtai Palace, Li Si's words were fierce and his emotions were extremely impulsive!
The hundred acres of farmland that had been flooded and destroyed…belonged to Li Si!!
Li Si didn't have many fiefs, so he could only rely on the hundred acres of fertile land to grow food…
Fortunately, the hundred acres of fertile land was close to the canal, so it was easy to irrigate. The land was fertile and could produce a bumper harvest almost every year.
However, Li Si would never have thought that this hundred acres of good farmland would be destroyed by someone!!
When Li Si received the news, he stomped his feet in anger!!
It was fine if the wine-making business was snatched away by others, but they had the backing of His Majesty.
But those hundred acres of fertile land…
Did he really think that the Prime Minister of Great Qin was made of mud?!!
Did he think Li Si had no temper?
Li Si's first thought was to capture the culprit.
He would definitely tear the other party apart and exterminate the three clans!!
However, after pondering for a moment, Li Si suddenly gave up on that idea!
Compared to the hundred acres of fertile land, the brewing of wine and his position as Prime Minister were obviously more important!!
Although the harvest from a hundred acres of fertile land was not small, it was nothing compared to the oil and water from brewing wine…
The position of Prime Minister was the foundation of Li Si's life!!
There was no reason for him to give it up!
Soon, Li Si had a plan in mind…
That was why he led his ministers to Zhangtai Palace to pay his respects to His Majesty!
If it was just the destruction of a hundred acres of fertile land, Li Si would not have needed to make such a big fuss!!
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, knew that the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty had something up his sleeve when he saw his formation...
Glancing at Zhao Gao imperceptibly, Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slip in his hand and asked expressionlessly,""What happened? Tell me!”
"Here!"
" Yes!" Li Si replied and knelt on the ground.
"Li Si is guilty. I have to confess my crimes to Your Majesty first…"
Ying Zheng's eyes flashed.
Whoa, confess first?
It seems that the Prime Minister of the Great Qin Empire…has a big goal!!
Ying Zheng leaned forward and put on an interested expression...
