Ying Zheng's heart skipped a beat. The next moment, he glanced at Li Zhao strangely and said to himself: You like to pretend, don't you? Just let you pretend to be terrified.
He asked casually: "Boy, do you have any good ideas to solve the problem of yield per acre?"
Li Zhao looked embarrassed and said quickly: "Young man doesn't understand anything and has no good ideas. But your Majesty, you can ask me, Brother Zhan, if he may have some good ideas?"
When asked about your head, Ying Zheng really wanted to curse out loud, asking you to make excuses and using that guy to disgust me.
Suddenly, his expression became terrifying, and he shouted sternly: "Someone, take this kid down and chop him."
When Li Zhao heard this, his face changed in shock, and he turned pale instantly. Sure enough, he is accompanying you like a tiger, and he will die if you are not careful.
He didn't say anything wrong, but he used such terrifying methods.
Cut? He is only seventeen years old!
"Father, you must not do it. Li Zhao is still young and immature. If you have any good ideas, please let him go." Fusu Mercy was shocked when he saw Ying Zheng giving such an order and quickly persuaded him.
Ying Zheng ignored it and tilted his head.
"Yes!" The two guards next to him came over immediately and were about to capture Li Zhao.
"Slow down, Your Majesty, there is a good plan for a humble position."
hehe! Ying Zheng smiled proudly and shouted away the guards, secretly saying: There is a special method to make this kid speak! This should have been the case a long time ago! Why should I use force?
"Actually, I have a special method to increase the grain yield per acre, and it can also produce two grains a year in the Guanzhong area." Li Zhao said quickly.
Don’t say no! If he keeps hiding it, his head will be moved. Banjun really can't joke around.
It’s not that he was talking nonsense. The rice seeds the system gave him were all special varieties. Let alone Champa rice and Huanghuazhan rice, just hybrid rice. But Grandpa Yuan had devoted his life to it. If his guess was right, the system would give him The hybrid rice is the most advanced and good product, and can be harvested twice a year in the Guanzhong area.
Moreover, according to the yield of hybrid rice in the previous life, the yield per mu could reach more than 1,000 kilograms. Compared to Da Qin, the yield per mu was only one or two stones, and at most no more than three stones. It was simply dwarfed by the amount. More than ten times.
If there were no natural or man-made disasters and if rice continued to become popularized, there would be no problem in providing food and clothing for the people within two years.
Of course, now that Qin Shihuang knew about rice, he would definitely contribute it. Fortunately, the system provided three kinds of seeds. It was impossible for him to hand over hybrid rice, and the yield per mu of Champa rice was too low and its maturity period was too long. It is long and unsuitable, and is only occupied by yellow flowers.
Huanghuazhan has two crops a year, with a yield of more than ten stones per mu, which is much better than the yield per mu of this era, just enough to cope with Qin Shihuang, and hybrid rice, hehe! Can be a money-making tool.
"Twice a year? Is this wheat?" Ying Zheng's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
Li Zhao shook his head and said, "No, it's rice, the main crop in Nanhai County."
"Rice? Two crops a year? If it were in Nanhai County, wouldn't it be four crops?"
nice one! Ying Zheng thought to himself, his eyes shining.
Although rice is not a staple food in the Guanzhong area, isn't it also a food? Faced with the people who are still unable to eat enough, food is undoubtedly a life-saving straw, regardless of whether it is a staple food.
And it’s still four crops. You know, the rice in the Guanzhong area is only one crop a year.
Li Zhao felt that Ying Zheng was too whimsical. Two crops a year was already very good, but he still wanted four crops? hehe! However, in Nanhai County, it should be possible to have three degrees of ripeness, and three degrees of ripeness is also a big concept.
"No, it should be possible to get three-cooked rice in Nanhai County."
"Oh!" Ying Zheng was slightly disappointed, but only for a moment.
"How's the yield per acre?"
This is his biggest concern.
Li Zhao paused. If he dared to lie at this moment, he just didn't want his head.
"It should be eight stones." He should try to be as small as possible. If calculated according to the average level in his previous life, Huang Hua's yield per mu should be ten stones, so he deliberately reduced it by two stones.
Because although he has been reborn for seventeen years, he has never farmed. If the quality of Da Qin's soil fails, or if it fails to meet the requirements due to other reasons, then his head will really fall to the ground.
This is deceiving you!
"What?" Ying Zheng was shocked, his eyes widened, and his pupils shrank rapidly.
Eight stones? What is that concept? We must know that the rice yield in the Guanzhong area is only about one or two shi per mu, and the most is only three shi. And eight shi is an increase of three or four times!
Four times the yield per mu means that over time, 20 million people can live. It means that the people do not have to go hungry and can live a worry-free life. It means that the country can have long-term peace and stability, and all problems can be solved!
This is great news! Even if he conquered the Six Kingdoms, he would not be as excited as he is now.
"Seriously?" Ying Zheng shook his head, still unable to believe it.
"really."
Li Zhao nodded affirmatively.
But I was wailing in my heart. Looking at the look in Qin Shihuang's eyes, his dream of getting rich was a bit uncertain. Will Zulong confiscate his seeds?
"Haha! Okay, okay! Haha!" Ying Zheng laughed like never before.
Fusu had been listening, and when he heard such news, he frowned, but still agreed.
"Congratulations to my father for finding a treasure. With an output of eight stones per mu, our Daqin general will be as stable as Mount Tai. I am very happy and congratulated!"
"Haha!" Ying Zheng rarely agreed with Fusu's words.
"Li Zhao listens to the title. I will make you a young lady. You will be responsible for the scheduled farming. I can go to court cheaply. I will grant you the title of first-class civil servant. I will give you a thousand acres of fertile land in the suburbs of Xianyang, a house, and five yi coins."
"From now on, work hard to cultivate the land with your special method, and be sure to grow rice with a yield of eight shi per mu."
Da Qin has an official who specializes in agricultural affairs, Shaonei, a medium-sized royal private position.
Da Qin also had a hierarchy of titles, which were originally designed for military merit. However, after unification, there were few wars, so few people received them. Later, they gradually evolved into rewards for those who made contributions.
There are twenty levels in total, and the first-level sergeant is the lowest level. However, even at the lowest level, it is a title after all. The status is not comparable to ordinary people, and there is also a salary to be paid. It is an existence that many people dream of.
Needless to say, there are thousands of acres of fertile land. If you are not a powerful person or a landowner, no one can have so much fertile land.
The top coin is gold, one yi is equivalent to twenty taels, and five yi is equivalent to one hundred taels of gold, which is not too small.
ah! Li Zhao was stunned for a moment and had not yet recovered from his shock.
The reward was a bit generous. Qin Shihuang was really generous. He rewarded so many things without any merit. The next moment, I thought: I just said the words because I was afraid of death. To receive such a reward is a bit childish. Qin Shihuang Aren't you afraid that I'll tell lies?
Ying Zheng heard his voice and smiled inwardly: I knew you were afraid, otherwise how would you discover your talents? It's just child's play! So what if I play a little game with you?
In fact, it was not a joke for Ying Zheng. He had thought a lot about the problem of increasing crop yields, but he couldn't think of any good way. After Li Zhao said this, he decided to give it a try. Of course, he only took this chance because he was sure. .
Judging from Li Zhao's various performances, he is not a mediocre person. If he can really grow eight shi per mu of food, it will be worth the effort.
He just has such courage.
"From today on, you don't have to wait around the eldest son. Just farm your land! I hope to see you grow eight shi of food per mu in half a year."
"Go!"
Although Ying Zheng said with a smile, his words revealed that he was serious. If Li Zhao dared to deceive, the consequences would be serious.
Li Zhao also realized this, and he didn't know whether he was happy or heavy. After bowing and thanking him, he left.
"Father, you..." Fusu realized it later and twitched the corners of his mouth.
I have already understood in my heart that my father did not intend to execute Li Zhao just now, but just threatened him. But, is it really okay to produce eight stones per mu?
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said in a slow tone, "I know what you are going to say. There are some things that you really have to give a try to have a chance. Otherwise, staying put will only lead to destruction. Do you understand?"
Of course Fusu understood, otherwise he wouldn't have faced his father's anger and reported the matter of suppressing Shang.
"It's just that he is just a teenager, can he really do it?" Fusu was puzzled.
Ying Zheng gave Fu Su a rare pat on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You underestimate him, or you don't understand him."
learn? Fusu was a little confused. He had only been in contact with Li Zhao for less than an hour, so how could he understand him? It seemed that his father had only been in contact with him for a short time, so how could he understand him?
"Fu Su, immediately send my secret order to Nanhai County, and order Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo to lead an army of 500,000 to fight in Nanhai and open up fertile land for me to use later."
Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo were the generals stationed in Yue.
"promise!"
Fusu was overjoyed and took the order and left.
This secret decree is very obvious. His father accepted his suggestion and opened up Nanhai County, which proves that his father still approves of him, but the manpower problem has not been solved yet!
Farming war? He immediately thought of this word, and suddenly his eyes lit up. It was indeed a good idea to farm and fight at the same time. Why didn't he think of it?
My father is worthy of being a father. He actually thought of this. He is not as good as him!
