He was here.
This was the call of the system reward.
The moment he heard Ying Zheng's question, Chen Beixuan seemed to have heard the system's announcement.
Without a doubt.
As long as he told Ying Zheng about this method and then spread it to the whole country, it would definitely increase the fate of the Great Qin Empire.
"Your Majesty."
"The punctuations are just like this book. You can see it at a glance, instead of trying to find empty words from so many words to distinguish the meaning of the sentence.”
"Punctuation marks are divided into three categories: dots, labels, and other labels.”
"The dots are: (2) Question mark: 3. Exclamation mark: Fourteen commas: , Fifteen pauses: , Sixteen demi-colons: Colon: "
"The labels are: (1) quote marks: ()[]{} thirteenth dash: -fourteenth ellipsis: ..... Book Title:
……
……
In order to let Ying Zheng understand the usage of the punctuations and its advantages, Chen Beixuan spent a full two hours to finally let Ying Zheng understand the basic usage of the punctuations.
"Imperial Teacher."
"Do you think so?"
Immediately after.
After understanding the usage of the punctuations, Ying Zheng couldn't wait to edit a book and put it in Chen Beixuan's hands as if he was showing off. He looked at Chen Beixuan expectantly.
He looked exactly like himself when he was young, eager to be praised by his teachers and parents.
"Your Majesty is really smart. You actually mastered the use of this notation so quickly.”
Chen Beixuan also complimented him, which made Ying Zheng overjoyed.
"Where?"
"This is all because of the emperor teacher's knowledge and talents, creating this punctuation mark. Otherwise, zhen would not know that reading memorials could be so simple.”
Ying Zheng looked at the words written on the bamboo slips in his hand, a satisfied smile on his face.
After the book had been edited with the punctuations, it was indeed much easier to review. Moreover, it was cleaner and looked very comfortable.
"Imperial Teacher."
"If you don't mind, I will use your name to promote the use of punctuations to the world and let everyone use them.”
"Of course."
Chen Beixuan nodded with a smile and did not reject Ying Zheng's offer.
He naturally hoped that the world could use the items he had taken out to increase Great Qin's National Fate and obtain the system's rewards.
"Great."
Ying Zheng was quite pleased with himself as he admired the memorials that had been corrected with the use of punctuations, before he continued,"
"Imperial Teacher."
" It's already spring plowing season, but there's an extreme shortage of cattle. All the places have written to ask if they can increase the number of cattle, but the number of cattle is limited..."
Ying Zheng started complaining to Chen Beixuan.
Ever since he had pacified the six countries in Shandong, the Xiongnu had also quieted down quite a bit. The world had been stabilized for the first time, but the successive years of drought and floods had made Ying Zheng very distressed.
In order to save and settle the disaster victims everywhere, he had emptied the national treasury, but he was still called a tyrant by the world.
Regarding this.
Ying Zheng did not bother to explain. It was just a bunch of evil remnants of the six dynasties with ulterior motives, trying to bewitch those ignorant people.
However, the emptiness of the national treasury was a severe test!
It was the spring plowing season. If the cattle were not in place, the grain harvest this autumn would definitely decrease by a lot. The decrease in the total amount of grain meant that they would face a huge food problem in the coming year.
If there were droughts, floods, and other disasters, under such a vicious cycle, the people would definitely face a situation where they would not have enough to eat. At that time, many rebellions would probably be born.
Listening to Ying Zheng's rambling, Chen Beixuan knew that Ying Zheng wanted to ask him if he had solved the problem of the cattle.
However…
Ying Zheng was obviously overthinking.
He wasn't a real immortal, so how could he suddenly double the number of cattle? This was simply unrealistic.
Moreover…
In the 5,000 years of the Dragon Country's history, there had never been a divine technique that could double the production of cattle.
"Your Majesty!"
"It's impossible to increase the number of cattle, but I have a way to reduce the demand for cattle by one fold.”
When he heard that even Chen Beixuan had no solution, Ying Zheng could not help but feel a little disappointed. He felt that he had been too reliant on the Emperor's teacher.
However, when he heard that Chen Beixuan could reduce the demand for cattle by one fold, it was equivalent to doubling the number of cattle. That would be enough to meet the demand for farming this year.
"Please tell me, Imperial Teacher."
Ying Zheng was overjoyed. He quickly stood up and bowed to Chen Beixuan.
"This technique is very simple."
"We only need to change the current method of plowing with straight shaft to the method of plowing with curved shaft.”
"Changing the straight shaft plow to a curved shaft plow? What does that mean?"
Ying Zheng was very confused.
He knew very well that the straight shaft plow was a method of plowing the land that was used all over the world.
Straight shaft plowing, also known as two oxen carrying a pole.
It required two oxen to pull at the front, a horizontal pole in the middle, and at least three or four young men to control the depth of the plow and the position of the plow handle.
The reason for this was because…
It was because of the structure of the straight shaft plow that it did not dig deep into the soil. Moreover, as the cow moved forward and the angle was problematic, the plow would leave the ground.
Furthermore, the straight shaft plow was relatively cumbersome, difficult to turn, and had a small number of cattle.
Therefore, he had no choice.
Even with the support of three or four young men, the amount of land they could farm in a day was pitifully small.
However, Chen Beixuan's Quyuan plow was unheard of.
"It means to change the original straight shaft plow into a curved plow.”
"This way, the original method of plowing land that required two oxen and four people will be reduced to one person and one ox. This will double or even triple the original efficiency.”
"Imperial Teacher!"
"Is there really such a divine item? Are you lying to me?"
Ying Zheng was not an ignorant and incompetent person. He knew very well about the problem of farming. If the Crooked Plow that Chen Beixuan had mentioned was really useful, then it would change the entire Great Qin.
Jie Shi.
In the hearts of the people, Chen Beixuan would surpass the farmers of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy and become a saint of agriculture.
Great Qin would benefit from this and gain a large number of people's hearts.
However…
This method of plowing with a straight shaft had been around for a long time, but there had never been a curved shaft plowing.
Therefore…
Although Ying Zheng was very excited, he was also very uneasy.
He was afraid that everything was fake!
"The making of the curved shaft plow is not complicated. Your Majesty, please find the craftsmen in the palace to build a curved shaft plow and try it yourself. Then you will know if what I said is true or false.”
"Pass down the order!"
"Immediately get all the craftsmen in the palace to come over!”
