"Men."
"Inform His Majesty that I have a treasure in my possession, and its value is no less than Qu Yuanli's.”
Chen Beixuan had already made up his mind to extort Ying Zheng. At least, he had to earn enough food in the early stages so that he could survive for the rest of his life.
"Here."
Eunuch Li Er was used to Chen Beixuan's impudent words.
Under the heavens.
Perhaps only the emperor's teacher could be so impudent, completely disregarding etiquette.
……
Qilin Palace.
In the royal study.
Ying Zheng was still working hard, with mountains of bamboo slips on both sides.
"Your Majesty."
"Chief Eunuch Li Er of Sky Bearing Hall requests an audience.”
"Li Er?"
Ying Zheng's busy body paused for a moment, then he slowly raised his head and said,""Let him in."
"Servant Li Er greets Your Majesty!"
"Tell me."
"Why are you looking for me?"
"Your Majesty."
"The Imperial Teacher asked this servant to tell Your Majesty that the Imperial Teacher has a treasure in his possession, and its value is no less than Qu Yuanli.”
Li Er did not dare to lie, so he repeated what Chen Beixuan said.
"What?"
"Did Imperial Teacher really say that?"
After hearing this piece of news, Ying Zheng immediately lost his composure.
The value of the Quyuan Plow had already been proven. This was an epoch-making sacred object, and anything that could be compared to it must be a sacred object.
"Hurry!"
"Immediately head to the Sky Bearing Palace!"
Ying Zheng also knew that Li Er was not that bold, so he immediately set off for the Sky Bearing Palace.
A moment later.
Ying Zheng walked up to Chen Beixuan and said impatiently,"
"Imperial Teacher."
"I wonder where the sacred object comparable to Qu Yuanli is?”
Seeing the anxious First Emperor, Chen Beixuan gestured for Ying Zheng to sit down and said,""This item is called a waterwheel. It can completely solve the irrigation problem and is more than ten times stronger than a canal.”
"Waterwheel?"
"This place can solve the irrigation problem?"
Ying Zheng felt that his knowledge was not enough. What was this waterwheel?
If what Chen Beixuan said was true, then this thing was not inferior to Qu Yuanli. In fact, it was even stronger than Qu Yuanli.
It had to be said that farming was incredibly difficult. Even though there were so many machines in the future, it was still incredibly difficult, much less Great Qin in the 2,000-year era.
In particular, water resources were very scarce in most places. They often had to go to distant places to fetch water, but how much water could a person carry?
How much water was needed to irrigate one mu of land?
Thus, canals were created to bring water from rivers to irrigate the fields.
However, digging a canal meant a lot of time, manpower, and money. Usually, the amount of fertile land that a canal could satisfy was very limited.
This caused the construction of the canal to encounter all kinds of obstacles!
However, Chen Beixuan said that the waterwheel could solve this problem completely. It was undoubtedly another sacred item for farmers.
In fact…
Chen Beixuan could become a Saint with the help of the Quyuan Plow and the Waterwheel!
However, Ying Zheng was not an ordinary person. He had long been used to Chen Beixuan's immortal methods, so he calmed down after being shocked.
Chen Beixuan had told him about the waterwheel and asked him to sit down, but he did not take it out. There must be something going on.
Soon after.
Looking at the smile on Chen Beixuan's face, Ying Zheng finally understood.
Chen Beixuan was probably here to settle the score with him because he had given him the burden of being a prisoner of Mount Li.
Thinking of this…
Ying Zheng couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.'This Imperial Teacher really can't take any losses.'
This was Chen Beixuan.
If it were anyone else, even Li Si, Wang Ben, and the others, Ying Zheng would have skinned them alive. But for Chen Beixuan, Ying Zheng could only feel pain and happiness.
He had to face the God he had sealed with a smile no matter how hard it was!
"Tell me."
"What request does Imperial Teacher have? As long as I have…cough cough, as long as it's not too much, I can agree.”
Ying Zheng originally wanted to take over the entire treasury, but when he thought of the empty treasury, he changed his words.
He had no choice.
A clever housewife can't cook without rice.
Who would have thought that he, the dignified First Emperor, would also be troubled by money?
"Don't worry, Your Majesty."
"I don't want much. I just need to fulfill a few small conditions.”
"First, I need a few shops with good locations on Xianyang Street, no less than five.”
"Second, I need to set up a caravan. The caravan can sell anything, including salt, iron, and other prohibited items.”
"Third, I need to draw some talents from the royal court and various places to help. Your Majesty cannot stop me.”
"Fourthly, this venerable self needs about three months 'worth of rations, which is 1.8 million dans of rations.”
Chen Beixuan had already thought of this and demanded an exorbitant price.
"Imperial Teacher."
"I can agree to the first three conditions, but this fourth condition is a little too much.”
"A normal Qin army would consume no more than seven to eight liters of rice per day, while ordinary people would consume four to six liters of rice. The food consumed by the prisoners of Mount Li last month was only 380,000 stone meters. How could they have used 1.8 million stone meters in these three months?”
Ying Zheng knew that Chen Beixuan would ask for an exorbitant price, but he did not expect him to ask for 1.8 million dans, which was nearly a million dans more than the usual amount.
"Cough cough…"
"If you want to make people dry, then you have to make people eat until they're full!”
"How about this? I don't want 180, and you don't care about 30 or 40. I'll just give you a million dans of grain.”
Chen Beixuan did not even bat an eyelid. When it came to bargaining, one party would raise the price and the other party would pay back the price. As for the final price, it was all up to his own ability.
"Sure."
Ying Zheng agreed without even blinking his eyes, but his heart was bursting with joy.
The emperor's teacher has never experienced mortal affairs and is actually so gullible. I only cried that I was poor, but the emperor's teacher lowered his own price by 800,000 dans of food.
This was a sacred object comparable to the Quyuan Li.
Not to mention a mere 1,800,000 dan of grain, Ying Zheng would not hesitate even if it was doubled.
The reason why Ying Zheng was crying about poverty was that he was worried that Chen Beixuan would ask for more if he agreed. After all, taking out so much food at once would be a heavy burden on the national treasury.
However, Ying Zheng did not expect that Chen Beixuan would lower the price to one million. It was like picking up a free item, so he quickly agreed.
"Too many? Then…"
Chen Beixuan was also stunned. His bottom line was about 500,000 dans, which was enough to last him for a month.
Chen Beixuan had thought that Ying Zheng would give him a price, but he did not expect him to agree to it immediately. This made Chen Beixuan dumbfounded.
Could it be that the ancient people didn't care about the price?
Wouldn't that be a lot less fun in life?
