"Madam Barker, may I ask where the treasure is?”
After everyone left, Meng Yi, who was left alone, saw that only Ba Qing was left, so he cupped his fists and asked.
"What treasure?"
Ba Qing, who was looking at Ying Ziye's back in a daze, was confused by his question.
"His Highness the Crown Prince said that there are priceless treasures here that are related to the rise and fall of Great Qin?”
"Where are you now?"
Meng Yi looked around. Other than farmland, there was no sign of any treasure.
"Oh! Here!"
The smart Ba Qing immediately understood what was going on.
He picked up a black lump from the ground that he hadn't eaten yet and handed it to him." Try this first, and I'll tell you where the treasure is!”
"This is?"
Meng Yi was confused as he looked at the charred sweet potato.
However, since he could only know the whereabouts of the treasure after eating this, he could only do as he was told.
He braced himself and opened his mouth to bite down!
However, when he saw Ba Qing peel off the black shell and only eat the red heart inside, he quickly followed suit.
He peeled off the skin and took a big bite!
"Yes! It tastes good!"
"May I ask Madam, what is this?"
Meng Yi's eyes lit up as he asked curiously.
"This is called a sweet potato, the treasure that His Highness the Crown Prince mentioned!”
Ba Qing picked up a piece of raw sweet potato and weighed it in his hand. Finally, the mystery was revealed!
"This is…the so-called treasure?”
Meng Yi frowned.
Even though this thing was soft, sweet, and delicious, it was too much of a joke to say that it was a treasure related to Great Qin's prosperity!
"And this corn is also a treasure. Try it too…!”
Ba Qing picked up a piece of roasted corn from the ground and handed it to him.
"Corns?"
Meng Yi had never seen such a strange thing before. He peeled it open and took a bite. He could not help but nod repeatedly!
Although this thing was not as delicious as sweet potatoes, it still had a different flavor!
However, what did this have to do with treasures?
It was also related to the rise and fall of Great Qin. Wasn't this too much nonsense?
"General Meng, do you know the yield per mu of these two crops?”
Ba Qing continued, as if he had seen through the doubts in his heart.
"How much?"
Meng Yi had a sweet potato in his left hand and a corn in his right. He took two bites and asked in a muffled voice.
"The yield of sweet potatoes is four to five thousand catties per mu, and the yield of corn is two to three thousand catties per mu!”
Ba Qing smiled smugly.
"Pfft…"
"Cough, cough…"
"How much did you say…?"
Hearing her words, Meng Yi choked for a long time before he recovered.
He widened his eyes and asked in disbelief.
"The yield of sweet potatoes is four to five thousand catties per mu, and the yield of corn is two to three thousand catties per mu…!”
Ba Qing pointed at the 10,000-mu experimental field behind him." General, if you don't believe me, you can choose any mu and dig it out. You'll know when you weigh it!”
"Four…four to five thousand jin?"
"All of these?"
Looking at the endless experimental field, Meng Yi was surprised and happy!
"That's right!"
"According to the Crown Prince, these high-yield crops are all imported from overseas!”
"His Highness plans to spread these high-yield crops throughout Great Qin to solve Great Qin's food shortage!”
Ba Qing said with a sly smile.
She had already thought of how to sell these high-yield seeds at a high price.
"Treasure!"
"That's right! This is definitely a treasure!"
"With this divine item, it can indeed protect the Great Qin Empire forever!”
Meng Yi looked at the 10,000-mu experimental field and was extremely excited!
One had to know that the highest yield of grain was only 200 catties per mu!
And then, this sweet and delicious magical crop actually reached a yield of four to five thousand catties per mu!
It was twenty times more than ordinary grain!
If every household planted such a divine item, why would Great Qin worry about not having food?
Why worry about not being strong and prosperous?
"This general will mobilize another army to protect these treasures!”
Meng Yi was afraid that these treasures would be lost, so he decided to mobilize another army!
……
"Come on, surround this prince's residence!”
In Xianyang City, Ying Ziye was riding on a tall horse, leading the Black Armored Army towards Zhao Gao's mansion.
"This is Lord Zhao's mansion!"
"What do you want to do? Do you want to die?"
The guards at the door saw the soldiers charging over and shouted angrily.
Zhao Gao gained the Emperor's trust, and their status also rose!
Thus, even though they saw soldiers approaching, they didn't panic.
"Pfft…"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, his head was chopped off by Ying Ziye.
"Come on, wash this prince's Zhao Gao residence in blood!”
Ying Ziye sat on his horse and ordered loudly.
"Here!"
The soldiers received the order and rushed into the manor like a swarm of bees.
Not long after, dozens of Zhao Family members and hundreds of guards were all killed!
"Your Highness, we haven't found any trace of Zhao Gao!”
After a fruitless search in the manor, one of the soldiers ran over.
"Great Si Ming, Young Si Ming, I'll leave a portion of your men here to ransack your houses!”
"The rest of the soldiers, follow this prince to the headquarters of the network!”
Ying Ziye was a little disappointed that he couldn't find Zhao Gao.
After leaving behind a group of people, he went straight to the headquarters of the Network.
Today, no matter what, he had to exterminate the Network!
He wanted to kill Zhao Gao with his own hands!
If they dared to have designs on him, they had to die!
No matter who protected him, he could not!
……
"Why is there still no news?"
At the headquarters of the Network, Zhao Gao calmly took a sip of tea and asked with a frown.
However, although she looked calm on the surface, she was actually very nervous and uneasy.
From the time they found the trace of the silkpants Crown Prince to the time they sent the assassins, almost an hour had passed.
However, there was still no news.
"Milord, perhaps it's because the journey is far. After they succeeded, they didn't have time to rush back!”
Yan Le cupped his hands and stepped forward, analyzing the reason.
He didn't dare to show his face and only sent a trusted killer to command.
Therefore, there was no other way except to wait for the news.
"Send someone to investigate the situation!"
After a moment of silence, Zhao Gao waved his hand.
This operation was of great importance. If they couldn't kill Ying Ziye, they would alert the enemy!
Perhaps, if the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, investigated carefully, he might even find out who was behind this!
Therefore, he could only succeed this time!
He couldn't fail!
"Yes, sir!"
"This subordinate will send someone to investigate the situation!”
Yan Le cupped his hands and accepted the order. Then, he turned around and was about to leave.
"Crash…!"
"Surround the headquarters of the Network and don't let a single bird out!”
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.
