A few days later, Fu Su's decree was spread throughout Great Qin, and all of China's Nine Provinces received it.
The remnants of the Six Nations were ecstatic. They did not need to go to the battlefield to obtain military merits and titles just by forging iron ores into ironmother?
This was a great thing. If the Qin army wanted to obtain the title of nobility, they would have to risk their lives to kill the enemy, but they did not!
This was a gift to them. At this moment, the remnants of the six dynasties in the nine provinces of China were scrambling for this decree.
They waved their hands and ordered the people to sell all the iron ore in their hands to them. One catty could be exchanged for a stone of corn!
All the citizens were shocked!
A piece of iron ore used to make farming tools could be exchanged for a stone of grain. During the Qin Dynasty, a stone was about 30 kilograms, which was 60 catties!
How many days of rations could 60 catties of corn be used?
In other words, during the Qin Dynasty, corn could be produced per mu at a rate of 200 catties. Although 200 catties might seem small, this was the best situation. If there was a drought or something like that, 100 catties per mu would be considered very good.
But now, a pound of iron ore could be exchanged for a stone of corn. The commoners were ecstatic when they heard that.
For a time, all the commoners who had iron mines in their homes pulled iron mines to exchange for food.
There was an endless stream of commoners from the Aristocratic Mansion who came to exchange for food. They lined up for a few miles.
"Eight catties of iron ore can be exchanged for eight stones of corn.”
When the noble son who was carrying the weight shouted, the commoner trembled with excitement. Eight piculs of corn, 480 catties!
This time, not only would he be able to survive the famine, but he would also be able to pay his taxes!
The nobles were also very happy. Eight catties of iron ore could be forged into two catties of mothermetal. The First Emperor ordered that only fifty catties of mothermetal could be considered a set.
If he could pay four or five sets of ironmother, then four or five people in his family could obtain a title of nobility!
It could be said that this decree not only made the remnants of the six countries ecstatic, but the people of the nine provinces were also deeply grateful.
......
The Eldest Young Master's Residence.
Fu Su was lying on the rocking chair that he had made himself, drinking beer and eating the dried pork that he had made himself. He was extremely happy.
At this moment, Qiu Yu walked over and reported,""Young Master, General Li requests an audience."
Fu Su frowned when he heard this. This shameless Li Xin only knew how to freeload. A few days ago, he came again with a skewer of pork.
Fu Su knew what he meant, but he pretended not to know. He didn't serve the wine or stir-fry the meat. In the end, Li Xin left after seeing that it was boring.
It's only been a few days, and he's here again? Was he shameless? He was the Great Qin General?
"Get him out of here." Fu Su waved his hand.”
Qiu Yu nodded and left.
Fu Su closed his eyes and rested. There was nothing much he could do now. All he had to do was wait for the remnants of the Six Nations to transport the Mothersteel to Xianyang.
To put it bluntly, this plan was a free ride.
Great Qin did not have to pay for the transportation costs; the remaining factions of the six countries had done everything of their own accord, and Great Qin had only promised them some military merits and Nobles.
Great Qin had many Nobles, and basically every Black Armored Guard had a Noble Rank. However, what was the use of that?
At most, he could only pretend to be pretentious in front of the commoners.
A few days ago, Wang Ben brought a few carts of corn to exchange for beer, and it was said that he was exchanging it for Wang Jian.
Li Xin wasn't the only one who was addicted to drinking beer; all of Great Qin's Generals drank beer together.
If you didn't drink beer, no one would talk to you. Everyone would think that you were LOW.
Fu Su did not expect that his beer would be able to set off a trend in Xianyang. However, this made him even more determined to open a beer factory.
Putting aside the fact that the commoners could not afford it, Great Qin's Generals could drink at least ten barrels a day.
Thinking of this, Fu Su sighed proudly.""These ancient people have never drunk anything good.”
Ever since Fu Su showed off his culinary skills in front of the servants a few days ago, the servants were shocked.
He directly treated Fu Su as the God of Cooking.
Previously, the few people who had threatened to kill themselves as long as Fu Su cooked for them didn't do so.
On the contrary, they pestered Fu Su all day long and asked him to teach them cooking skills.
Of course, Fu Su didn't have the leisure to be elegant. Moreover, he had said that he would teach them cooking skills, so what could Fu Su do to pretend?
At this moment, Qiu Yu walked over and said urgently,""Young Master, General Li Xin still refuses to leave.”
F * ck!
This guy was really shameless. He didn't want to leave without food?
Fu Su sighed helplessly. He had provoked a god of plague. If he had known earlier, he would not have cooked meat for him.
"What did he say?"
Qiu Yu pursed his lips and said," General Li Xin brought three sheep. He said it was a gift for you."”
Oh my god, Li Xin is really shameless.
In Great Qin, mutton was an extremely valuable item. In Great Qin's era, a lamb was hundreds of times more expensive than in the future.
This Li Xin brought three sheep just to eat Zhu Yu Stir-Fried Meat?
Fu Su couldn't wait until tomorrow. The eight barrels of beer that Li Xin drank and the two barrels that he took away were worth the three sheep.
"Alright, let him in." Fu Su waved his hand.”
After Qiu Yu left, Fu Su went to the vegetable garden. At this moment, the chili and cumin had already grown. Although they were not fully ripe, they were enough to make a roasted whole lamb.
Then, Fu Su waved his hand and summoned a few servants to go to Xianyang City to buy some honey.
Honey was recorded in the Book of Songs during the Spring and Autumn Period.
When Li Xin came in, Fu Su was building a simple barbecue rack in the courtyard.
"You're here?" Fu Su didn't stand on ceremony. The relationship between the two of them was extremely good.
"Young Master, I'm here today to deliver some mutton to you.”Li Xin was respectful.
Fu Su pursed his lips. Do you really think I don't know what you're here for?
"Alright, alright, go and kill a sheep for me.”
Killing sheep?
Li Xin's face was full of question marks. I'm the Great Qin General, and you're asking me to kill sheep? Don't you have servants in your residence?
I don't know how to kill sheep.
"Young Master, I don't know how to kill sheep.”
Fu Su didn't care about this. Wasn't he killing the sheep to make a roasted whole sheep for you? You still want the servants to go? If they didn't want to eat, why should they go?
"If you don't go, then don't eat what I'll make later.”
When the servants at the side heard this, they immediately burst into tears. This master was too good, right? He loved her, he loved her.
Hearing this, Li Xin swallowed his saliva. He knew Fu Su's cooking skills.
If he didn't eat it, he would kill himself in front of Fu Su. He didn't say anything else, picked up a sheep, and walked to the kitchen.
