"Hahaha, these cows finally learned how to grind." Li Shui smiled happily at the No. 1 Stone Mill.
After the first cow learned to pull the mill, the other cows followed suit and started pulling. It can be seen that the power of role models is infinite.
Aangfu also smiled beside him and said: "Congratulations, sir, from now on, flour can be made continuously."
Thanks to the dividends from the First Stone Mill, these craftsmen have turned around and made a fortune in just a few days.
Not only can they eat meat, but they can also eat steamed buns and noodles. This was originally a treatment that only the royal family could enjoy.
The rich nutrition made their bodies stronger quickly. Even the old man's face was glowing and he was much stronger.
Therefore, the craftsmen were loyal to Li Shui and respected him as a god.
Li Shui thought for a while and said to Cang Fu: "These days, we need to purchase Sumai quietly. But don't make too much noise, so as not to be noticed. Also, don't let people visit the No. 1 Stone Mill." Especially don’t let anyone know that flour is ground from wheat.”
Cang Fu nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir, I understand."
Although the people of Qin also grew wheat, their planting area was very small. They prefer to eat corn. Mainly because stone mills did not appear, so wheat could only be boiled and eaten, and the taste was not very good.
If people knew that flour was ground from wheat, the price of wheat would definitely skyrocket.
Of course, Li Shui did not intend to monopolize the flour-making process forever. There were smart people among the ancients, and this kind of thing won't be a monopoly for long.
However, from guessing it was wheat to making a stone mill. It will take those people a year and a half to start from scratch.
A year and a half was enough time. By then, some of Li Shui's arrangements had been completed.
Thinking of this, Li Shui said to Cang Fu: "How much money have I made recently?"
Aang Fu counted on his fingers for a while and said, "It's already five million dollars."
Li Shui hummed: "Convert all this money into fertile farmland. After the autumn harvest, follow my farm method and plant it all into wheat."
When Cangfu heard Li Shui mention the fielding method, he suddenly felt a little panicked: "Sir, this fielding method only plants half of each acre of land. Is it really feasible?"
Li Shui smiled: "You will know when the time comes."
Ao Fu sighed: "In a few months, it will be time to harvest corn. If you are free, sir, please go to the farmland for a walk. If the farmers are unwilling to work hard and the harvest is not good, you will be in danger. .”
Li Shui thought for a while and felt that this made sense. So he took Cano to the farmland.
The Qin soldiers arranged by Wang Wan were still guarding the farmland. Everyone was getting darker due to the wind and sun every day. The farmers are also busy in the fields.
Li Shui looked around and saw that these people were quite obedient and were farming according to their own methods.
When the farmers saw Li Shui, they all saluted respectfully. When they saw Cang Fu behind Li Shui, they felt a little uncomfortable.
Now these craftsmen have turned around. It is said that everyone has a lot of money and eats meat every day at home.
The farmers lowered their heads, partly out of regret and partly out of jealousy.
Li Shui said calmly: "I once met an immortal in a dream, and he loved me so much that he taught me some immortal skills. If you follow me faithfully, you will naturally make meritorious deeds and make a fortune. Those craftsmen are the best examples. .”
"If you have second thoughts or are lazy, you can deceive the superiors and conceal the truth from the inferiors. The death-free gold medal in my arms is not a vegetarian."
The farmers were obedient and worked even harder.
Li Shui nodded with satisfaction when he saw that the sweet jujube plus stick had an effect.
At this time, the young eunuch Wujiao rushed over, saluted Li Shui, and said, "Sir, the Huns will bid farewell tomorrow, and your Majesty will host a banquet for the envoy in the afternoon."
Li Shui hummed and asked casually, "Should I go too?"
Wu Jiao said: "The civil and military ministers are going. The alchemists and the young masters can go or not. However, Mr. Fu Yao has told the servants to invite the master into the palace."
Li Shui asked in confusion: "Why is this?"
Wu Jiao laughed dryly and said, "According to Mr. Fu Yao, Princess Weiyang ate steamed buns last time and she was thinking about it day and night and couldn't sleep at night. So I hope you can enter the palace as soon as possible and bring some steamed buns with you."
Li Shui thought helplessly: "She didn't notice that I am such a charming person. Thinking about steamed buns all day long? What a foodie."
Li Shui no longer wanted to attend the so-called farewell party. The main reason is that Sha Tilie is too stupid, and Li Shui is afraid of being infected.
Since he was not attending the banquet, he had plenty of time. Li Shui planned to take a nap first and then prepare food for Princess Weiyang...
…………
Li Shui didn't want to attend the banquet, and Shatilie didn't want to attend it even more. In his opinion, this kind of banquet was just to humiliate himself.
But this was a farewell banquet, and as the official historian of the Huns, I had to attend. Not even if it’s an excuse to be sick. The Emperor of Qin has arrived, but you put on airs and refuse to come. What does this mean?
So Shatilik came, holding back his shame.
After entering the palace, they found that the emperor was not present at all. Not only did the emperor not attend, but more than half of the civil and military officials were missing. The entire banquet was deserted and was hosted by Fengchang of Fengchang Temple.
But the good news is that the vicious Li Xin and the scheming Huai Guzi didn't come either. Otherwise, Shatilie would not dare to stay here.
Montenegro sighed. He already understood what was going on. Shatilie's series of stupid behaviors made the emperor of Qin feel that this Huns envoy was not worthy of respect. Therefore, today's farewell banquet is just a formality. No need to waste time attending.
Whether it is a demonstration or a show of morality, there is no need. The emperor of Qin despised the Xiongnu.
"But that's okay. I've collected enough things anyway. After I go back and work hard, Shanyu will definitely gain something." Heishan thought proudly.
Unlike his apparent humility, Montenegro is actually a staunch fighter. He came to the Central Plains and took a close look at the military strength and defenses of the Qin Dynasty.
After returning, he will advise Shan Yu to send troops. At that time, he will follow the army, break through the Qin people's defenses, and fight all the way into this fertile land. At that time, he will let the people of Qin know that the so-called humility is just an illusion.
Heishan was planning to plunder the Qin people's rich women, and Shatilie was also keeping an eye on the women.
In the center of the hall, several graceful maidens were dancing gracefully. Shatilie looked drunk.
These days, he has neither drunk nor slept well. His whole body is full of weak fire, he is depressed, and he needs to vent.
That's all in the post house. When I arrived at the palace and was stimulated by the beautiful palace maid, I suddenly felt a little distracted.
Thinking of this, Shatilie called Zhu Xuer over and expressed his thoughts.
Zhu Xuer's soul was almost frightened: "Your Majesty, this is the Qin Palace."
Shatilie said nonchalantly: "So what? I just want a few palace ladies to attend my bed. I am King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu, a distinguished guest of the Qin Dynasty. And these palace ladies are just slaves. It is not what a slave should do to serve his master. Really? Speaking of which, the Emperor of Qin is really rude. We have been in the Central Plains for so long and yet we don’t have any palace maids to accompany him."
Zhu Xuer whispered: "Your Majesty, I think it's better to discuss this with Lord Montenegro."
Shatilie waved his hand irritably: "It's a waste of time to negotiate. What I hate most is Montenegro."
Ever since the last time he got drunk in a wine shop, Montenegro looked at him strangely. Shatilie felt that this guy was a bit discriminating against him, so he kept feeling angry in his heart.
Zhu Xuer looked embarrassed: "This...little man is a little afraid. Do you want to inform Fengchang Temple and Fengchang?"
Shatilie looked at Feng Chang, who was not far away, and said impatiently: "No need. If he refuses, it will be difficult for me to take action. It will not be too late to tell him after I have finished my work. I agree. Anyone who doesn't know more will not be punished, but will be fined three drinks."
Shatilie patted Zhu Xuer on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid. I am the master, the noble King Zuoxian. The Emperor of Qin will not do anything to me. When I return to the grassland tomorrow, I will not forget it. Your merits will be greatly rewarded."
Zhu Xuer gritted his teeth and nodded. Wealth and wealth are found in danger. I did it.
The emperor of the Central Plains would not punish King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu for a little palace maid, right? Maybe he will go with the flow and give the palace maid to King Zuoxian.
Zhu Xuer has heard such stories. People in the Central Plains often send maids back and forth as gifts.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xuer felt relieved. He pretended to go to the toilet and was led out of the hall by a young eunuch.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhu Xuer ran back excitedly and whispered to Shatilie: "Your Majesty, I saw two women in a room near the main hall."
"The two of them seemed to be avoiding people intentionally, so the room was very quiet and there was no one around. The villain lingered outside for a while and vaguely heard them talking about steamed buns."
When Shatilie heard the word "mantou", he became furious. But when I thought about the two palace maids with skin as good as snow, my heart suddenly surged.
He patted Zhu Xuer hard on the shoulder: "Take me quickly."
As soon as the two people stood up, a young eunuch ran over, bowed and asked, "May I ask the messenger, what can I do?"
When the Huns walked in the palace, the eunuchs would definitely follow them. But Shatilie had already planned it. After a while, Zhu Xuer would come up with something and pester the young eunuch.
So he nodded and said, "I want to go to the toilet."
The young eunuch immediately bowed and said, "Please follow me."
He took two steps and saw Zhu Xuer following him. He asked in confusion: "This messenger also needs to go to the toilet? Didn't he already..."
Zhu Xuer said: "I want to go again."
The young eunuch looked at him sympathetically and thought to himself: "You are so young and your kidneys are not good. How pitiful."
But then I thought about it, my kidneys were fine, but they were useless, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for myself again.
