After Ziyou returned to his house, Li Si also followed. The two sat in the courtyard drinking tea. Li Si looked at Ziyou who was unusually uncharacteristic in today's discussion and asked curiously.
"Junior brother, aren't you always wary of Lord Changping? Why do you support Lord Changping to govern Nanjun this time? If he really has evil intentions, he will be out of control when he arrives in Nanjun."
"Changping Jun is indeed the best person to govern Nanjun. The Chu people are different from the people in the Central Plains. They have many customs. When the Qin State occupied Yingdu, it caused too many killings. If there is not a Chu person with enough reputation to govern them, they will He will neither be convinced nor obey, and as for Lord Changping's evil intentions, I wish he would be exposed now." Ziyou said while drinking tea.
The massacre caused by Bai Qi's capture of Yingdu was faster than that of the Battle of Changping. How could the people of Chu forget it? Especially since these people are all natives of Yingdu. As for Lord Changping's evil intentions, do we still need to be careful?
"I also feel that something is wrong with Mr. Changping recently. Junior brother, you'd better be careful. After all, Nanjun is our territory of Qin. In the future, Nanjun will be needed as a bridgehead to attack Chu." Li Si said.
"I know, don't worry, senior brother, I will remind Li Xin." Ziyou said.
Seeing Ziyou's confident look, Li Si stopped talking and changed the topic to Han Fei. These days, Han Fei and Jing Ke visited all the wine shops in Xianyang together every day.
At first, Jing Ke didn't dare to drink openly because Gongsun Liji was watching. But after all, Gongsun Liji was a waiter from Weiguo to Qin. After meeting Ying Zheng and getting Ying Zheng's guarantee, Gongsun Liji He returned to Weiguo, but Jing Ke did not go back because the Six-fingered Black Man was still here, so the two began to live in a state of intoxication every day.
"Speaking of the Mo family, why hasn't Qin Mo made a Quyuanli yet?" Ziyou asked puzzledly. According to Qin Mo's skills, a Quyuli should have been made a long time ago. Is there something wrong with Xiangliguan? ?
"What Quyuanli?" Li Si asked curiously.
Ziyou told the story of his acquaintance with Xiangli Guan, and when he heard that Qin Mo had such an important farm tool in his hand and still didn't get it out, Lisun couldn't sit still and said through gritted teeth.
"This bunch of rude and reckless men can't do this well. Don't they know how many important things they have delayed? I know that this group of people in the Mo family can't do anything except fight and kill. If they can't do it, let the public losers do it."
Quyuanli can conservatively increase Qin's food supply by 30%. With this 30%, Qin State still needs to recruit people to mobilize food everywhere. In Li Si's opinion, these disciples of the Mo family should be pulled out one by one to accept the criticism of the people of Qin.
"I'm not so excited, senior brother. Master Xiangli must have encountered some trouble. Let's go and have a look together." Ziyou said, Qin Mo's base camp is in Xianyang, in an independent square in the east of Xianyang City. , because the Mo family needed to tinker with various things, many of which were military supplies, so they were specially separated.
Li Si nodded, and the two of them left. Mo Ya drove Zi You and Li Si to Qin Mo's stronghold. When Xiang Liguan learned that Zi You came to visit him, he immediately dropped the things in his hands and took Qin Mo with him. A commander came to greet Ziyou. He saw that the Kanyu family had grown from a poor family to a popular sect in Qin.
The Kanyu family now has two marquises, and with the support of the Qin State, it has many disciples. Xiangli Guan knows why. Although Qin Mo is said to be from the Mo family, this does not prevent them from offering Zi You's thigh. This is all to revitalize Qin Mo. He believes that the spirit of Mo Zi in heaven will definitely understand.
"Why did Master Wang and Wei Ting come to my workshop? It's quite dirty here. Let's talk in the room." Xiangli Guan said with a smile on his face.
No matter how angry Li Si was, he didn't dare to say anything when he looked at Sosato Satori's white hair and smiling face. If he got angry at Sosato Satori now, he would be spit on by someone throwing eggs at him the next day.
"We are just talking here. Master Xiangli, do you still remember Quyuli?" Ziyou asked.
"Of course I remember, we are all waiting for your husband to announce this matter, so that I, Qin Mo, can launch this people's livelihood treasure." Xiang Liguan said. At the beginning, he said that Qin Mo would not monopolize this treasure that is of great benefit to people's livelihood. Then they will wait for Ziyou to announce Quyuanli before they take it out.
"Ah? Didn't I ask you to present it to King Qin on behalf of Qin Mojin?" Ziyou looked at Xiangli Guan in confusion and said.
"Am I, Qin Mo, the kind of person who monopolizes fame and wealth? This was invented by Mr. Ziyou. He must announce it to the world. How can we be allowed to come?" Guan did want to donate it to the King of Qin, but some commanders suggested that Quyuanli was simple to make. If it was taken away by people from other countries and developed, it would be equivalent to funding the enemy country. It would be better to wait for Mr. Ziyou to announce it and then take it out. .
Seeing Ziyou and Li Si confused, Xiangli Guan spoke out Qin Mo's thoughts in an awe-inspiring manner, which left Ziyou and Li Si speechless for a while. They didn't expect that these guys who focused on inventing would be so crooked. , no wonder Qin Mo was able to go from being a sect that monopolized the Qin Dynasty's court to gradually becoming so lonely that he was almost being ridden by outside public losers.
"Then what have you been doing lately?" Ziyou asked.
"We will further process and make the Quyuan plow, and strive to quickly meet the needs of the people of the entire Qin State when it is announced." Xiangli Guan said.
"Take us to see it." Ziyou said.
Xiangli Guan took Ziyou to the warehouse. Looking at the Quyuan plows piled up in ten warehouses, Ziyou didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a moment, so he could only pull Xiangli Guan and said
"Take two of your disciples and follow me to see the King of Qin."
"Okay." Xiang Liguan said with his eyes shining. After tidying up his clothes, he asked two disciples to follow him to Zhangtai Palace. At this time, Ying Zheng was reviewing memorials in Zhangtai Palace. He heard Zhao Gao saying "Zi You Li Si" After dragging Sosato Satuki over, he was also stunned and summoned them.
After the salute, Ziyou explained the function and benefits of Qu Yuan Li, Ying Zheng's eyes shone brightly, and he hurriedly asked Zhao Gao to arrange for him to leave the palace to do some experiments in the fields. Zhao Gao immediately went to arrange for King Qin to leave the palace. Six Swords Nuheluowang's elite killers immediately dispatched and monitored the three floors outside and on the third floor of where Ying Zheng was going.
They even searched through the ant nest and made sure there was no danger before letting Ying Zheng leave the palace. When Ying Zheng left the palace, he also specially summoned Jiu Qing and San Gong in the court. Everyone looked confused. Followed Ying Zheng to the farmland on the outskirts of the city.
Ying Zheng introduced the Quyuan plow to these ministers. Under the experiments of Xiang Liguan and his disciples, the farmland that originally took three days to plow now only takes half a day, especially after seeing that the Quyuan plow can adjust the iron plow. They were even more surprised when they were high and low. Compared with the surprise of the ministers, the people on the side were in tears. They knew the importance of Quyuanli better than these ministers. They immediately knelt down and shouted: King Qin will be king for ten thousand years, Qin will be for ten thousand years. .
Ying Zheng sat casually on the head of the field, his bare feet covered with mud. The ministers gathered around him and talked about the benefits of the Quyuan plow.
"Zhi Nei Shi Qi, let me tell you how much the Qin State's grain will increase after the use of the Quyuan Plow?" Ying Zheng asked.
"Now with the Zhengguo Canal irrigation and the Quyuan plow, some hard-to-cultivate land will also be reclaimed. With the saved people's manpower, the food supply can be increased by 30%, and the people's manpower savings are even greater. Plus the labor dispatch proposed by Mr. to build the city With policies such as policies on roads and roads, the construction that originally took decades may now be shortened by one-third," said Zhizunaishi.
"That's good." Ying Zheng was very happy. Although such an artifact cannot be said to solve the problem of people's hunger, it can also increase food production. Although the number of cattle is limited, generally speaking, there are only one or a few per mile. , shared by the villagers, but it is often unevenly distributed due to the size of the land. The Quyuan plow can also solve some of this problem.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Xiang Li has contributed a lot to the plow and should be rewarded." Lu Buwei said.
"I dare not ask for this reward. This was invented by Mr. Ziyou, and he just commissioned us to make it." Xiangli Guan immediately stepped forward and said, hugging the thigh should look like hugging the thigh, and what he said is also true.
Ying Zheng looked at Zi You. Zi You did not deny but nodded to admit. Ying Zheng said
"My teacher is a great talent, and he actually knows how to make machinery. The Quyuan Plow is beneficial to our country of Qin. As an inventor, my teacher will be rewarded with the title of Marquis of Che, and Confucius Xiangli will be granted the title of Marquis of Guan Nei for his merits in making it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiang Liguan bowed his head and said.
Although the Marquis of Guannei is not as good as the Marquis of Che of Ziyou, the reward is already very high, but no one says anything because they all know the importance of the Quyuan plow. In this era when people generally don't have enough to eat, you can make the grain yield high. You are a great hero. If you have ambition and an army, you can even be the monarch of a country. Sufficient food represents the surrender of the people and can make the people have enough to eat. You are the holy king in their hearts.
"As for the further discussion on the title, now we need to have enough Quyuanli to be distributed to various places, and the court must fully cooperate." Ying Zheng said.
"No." Others said, this is a major matter related to people's livelihood. If anyone dares to delay in this matter, don't think that the three Yi tribes will take it easy.
Xiang Liguan listened to Ying Zheng's order with his head lowered and his face full of embarrassment. The Mo family now had enough Qu Yuuli to feed half of the Qin State. After the Qu Yuuli matter was finalized, Ying Zheng left with his people. The remaining officials of Jiuqing looked at Xiangli Guan and came up to say hello with a smile. They were joking. As long as Qin Mo didn't seek death, Qu Yuuli's merits would be enough for them to gain a foothold in the court. Who knows if they have anything good left? , if there are them, they can also take some credit and improve their title.
There are three thousand left tomorrow morning
