"This time, I've given you a new prescription. The usage is the same as before.”
Zhao Yan quickly went in and removed the needles from Ying Zheng's body, then handed him a new prescription.
"I'll use the silver needles again, and then I'll be able to detoxify you.”
"By the way, Old Zhao, do you know High Official Meng Yi?”
Ying Zheng's eyes flickered." I know him, but I'm not too familiar with him."”
"His Majesty already knows about your paper-making technique. I believe he will summon you soon.”
When Zhao Yan heard what he said, he thought that it made sense.
Meng Yi also said yesterday that as long as they successfully used their own method to create paper, they would be able to do so.
When His Majesty arrives at Xianyang, he will definitely summon him.
"Moreover, if you offer this potato of yours.”
"You are the lucky star of Great Qin. It is not too much to make you a Marquis.”
These things were all great killing weapons. Qin Shi Huang naturally would not treat him badly.
Zhao Yan naturally wouldn't be stingy.
Looking at Zhao Yan who was deep in thought, Ying Zheng asked,""What's the difficulty?"
Difficulties?
There were no difficulties.
The potato was actually a reward that he had just received this year. There was also the sweet potato, which was a month earlier than it.
There weren't many seeds.
It was still planted in the ground and had not been collected yet.
The little stock in his clinic was almost finished today.
However…
The sweet potatoes could be harvested soon.
If the First Emperor came, he could show him one of the two divine weapons.
"It's not that there's any difficulty." Zhao Yan said to Old Zhao.”
"It's just that this thing is still planted in the ground. It will take another month before the harvest season arrives.”
Wang Jian, who was by the side, was slightly shocked after hearing that.
"They are still planted in the ground?"
"It has been twenty days since it rained in Liquan County.”
"The fields in the suburbs are all dry and cracked."
"If we don't accept it now, won't we be sunburned to death?”
Zhao Yan shook his head." Potato is a drought-resistant crop.”
"Now that it has basically grown, it doesn't need too much water.”
There were actually crops that didn't need much water?
"Is that true?" asked Ying Zheng incredulously.”
"Of course it's true."
Thinking about how Old Zhao had helped him settle the issue of paper making, Zhao Yan now treated him as a friend.
Moreover, Zhao Yan felt that Old Zhao was somehow trustworthy.
"By the way, I have a few acres of land in the suburbs and planted another high-yield crop that is drought-resistant.”
"If you are interested, I can bring you to take a look in the next two days.”
"There's another drought-resistant high-yield crop?”Ying Zheng could not help but exclaim.
Then, he felt that he had lost his composure and quickly coughed lightly.
"Yes, there are potatoes, so naturally, there are sweet potatoes.”
"But I've finished the ones I kept for the time being. I'll treat you to a meal in the suburbs.”
Zhao Yan said generously.
Ying Zheng recalled the previous investigation about Zhao Yan, which said that he had been running to the suburbs for the past two years.
It turned out that he had bought a field in the suburbs and went to farm.
Ying Zheng agreed immediately, and agreed to go to the suburbs to see the crops tomorrow.
At noon, just as they were about to eat, Meng Yi came over and ate.
He pretended to be unfamiliar with Ying Zheng and the others, greeting them one by one.
After eating, he praised Zhao Yan's cooking skills as usual.
Zhao Yan humbly waved his hand as he thought about the purpose of his visit today.
"I heard that Mister Zhao has discovered a new high-yield crop." Meng Yi asked.”
"I wonder how Mr. Zhao plans to deal with this?”
Zhao Yan did not hide anything and repeated what he had said to Old Zhao in the morning.
"Still in the fields?"
"Yes, the sweet potatoes can be harvested in the next two days.”
"We still have to wait a month for the potatoes."
"It's a pity that the seeds were planted late this year. Otherwise, with the current weather, I reckon we could have planted a second crop.”
In hot weather, the ripening period of sweet potatoes would be shortened by a lot.
It would only take about three months.
"Then tomorrow, can I follow you to the suburbs?”
"That's exactly what I want."
If Meng Yi wanted to go, that was for the best.
If he knew about this, it meant that the First Emperor knew about it.
He didn't even need to say it himself.
"With these two things, in less than two years, Your Majesty will have enough money to fight the Bai Yue!" Zhao Yan said to Meng Yi.”
Ying Zheng looked at him with surprise in his eyes.
"How did Mister Zhao know that His Majesty was going to attack the Bai Yue?" Meng Yi asked in surprise.”
Great Qin had just defeated the Xiongnu, so its treasury was quite poor.
Qin Shihuang only deployed in secret, and only a few of his trusted ministers knew about this.
Unexpectedly, this young man who had never left his birthplace knew about this.
"His Majesty has been taking quite a few actions recently, so it's not difficult to guess."”
"Not long ago, someone came to my clinic to ask for medicine.”
"He said he was going to the hot and humid forest to do business.”
Just from these words, he could guess what Great Qin would do in the next few years?
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man before him.
Could it be that this person was really sent by the heavens to assist him?
"Mister Zhao is right, but not many people know about this." Meng Yi praised.”
"Actually, His Majesty hasn't decided yet.”
"However, if we can really get Mister Zhao's help, it would be a blessing for Great Qin.”
Zhao Yan said a few humble words. After the few of them agreed on the time to set off tomorrow, they all took their leave.
