The Great Qin Dynasty was not the only one who had any words from the First Emperor. In most cases, the First Emperor could still listen to his opinions.
But when the First Emperor made his decision, it was inevitable that things would begin.
This is a notice, not a discussion!
Naturally, there are many ministers who hold objections.
But it was of no use. In short, the First Emperor made it clear that he wanted to patrol the world and protect the country with his own body. In view of the power of the First Emperor, everyone just pinched their noses and recognized it.
"A grand tour of the world..."
After the court meeting was over, Zhao Si returned to the farmland.
Now the grains need some time to grow, and the time for the grand patrol has been set, ten days from now.
At present, of the five grains, only millet is about to grow. If the weather is good, it can be harvested before the First Emperor sets out. As for other grains, it will take nearly a month.
Except for wheat, which has a long growth cycle, other grains can be harvested at maturity within a month.
"It's okay, I can catch up with a happy event before I leave." Zhao Si stroked Xiaomi's ears with a smile on his face.
"Zhao Si! Minister Zhao!"
Zhao Si, who was stroking Xiaomi, heard a loud call in his ears.
Wang Li naturally participated in today's court meeting. Wang Li, who was trapped in the Lantian camp, went straight to Zhao Si's home after the court meeting.
"Why are you still looking after those acres of land of yours?" Wang Li ran over and leaned over to grab a piece of millet.
"Hey! Are you growing so well?"
Wang Li crushed the ears and dropped a lot of grain into his hands.
"Otherwise, why would I be so concerned? Do you really think I'm growing them to eat? These are all for breeding." Zhao Si rolled his eyes.
"That's not right..." Wang Li looked around and pulled out a few more millet ears.
I saw that all of them were covered with fruit, and they were heavy. It’s not that Wang Li had never seen millet before, he grew it at home. Zhao Si’s millet grew very well.
"Your millet is different from mine!"
Wang Li recalled it carefully. With the millet grown by Zhao Si, he might not be able to harvest a few grains from an acre of land at home. However, Zhao Si's fields were full of millet.
"Brother..." Wang Li squatted next to Zhao Si with a smile on his face and poked Zhao Si with his shoulder.
"How do you do it? Do you have any tips? Can you teach me a thing or two?"
Grain farming skills and tips for increasing yields are the foundation of a family. Although Wang Li is the third generation rich, he also knows how terrifying the millet growth in Zhaosi's fields is.
Just by looking at the ears, Wang Li could estimate that the millet yield in Zhao Si's fields was probably two or three times the normal millet yield.
It would be very taboo for others to ask about this kind of thing rashly, but the relationship between Wang Li and Zhao Si was extraordinary, and Wang Li was also Zhao Si's first friend of the same age after landing.
"There are tricks, but others can't learn them... But when the food comes out, in addition to the ones donated to Your Majesty, I can leave half an acre of seeds for you." Zhao Si spread his hands.
The trick... is of course the raw jade halo.
Zhao Si’s unknown farming skill is to walk around the fields twice every day.
It's not that Zhao Si planned to hide it, it's really something that others can't follow.
Fortunately, Wang Li is a straightforward person. When he heard Zhao Si say that others could not learn from him, he knew that Zhao Si was not a stingy person and he was not asking for details.
"Aren't you going to keep it for yourself?" Wang Li was satisfied when he heard that Zhao Si was willing to share the seeds with him.
"Isn't the situation too small?" Zhao Si pointed at Wang Li with a smile.
"I'm saving these seeds for local promotion and dissemination to the world. Otherwise, why do you think I'm so concerned about it? Besides, there are strange phenomena coming from the sky, and there are remnants of the Six Kingdoms who are secretly causing trouble. Rumors are everywhere and people are panicked. Although Prime Minister Li has already taken action to deal with it. , prohibiting the spread of rumors, but blocking is worse than spreading. The more so, the harder it will be to stabilize people's hearts. Therefore, Your Majesty decided to patrol the world to protect the country with his own body and destroy the rumors. Now, except for wheat, all the grains are almost ripe. Your Majesty will patrol the world. Before, it was possible to catch up with Xiaomi's maturity." Zhao Si patted Wang Li on the shoulder.
"That's true..." Wang Li turned to look at the growth of other grains.
Soybeans, millet, yellow rice, rice, and wheat are all growing very gratifyingly. Based on Wang Li's experience, the yield of the grains cultivated by Zhao Si can generally more than double.
"Okay, I'm afraid you're going to be promoted again..." Wang Li sat down on the ground after reading this.
"What do you mean?" Zhao Si smiled.
"Immediately, the Noble Phantasm, Salt Making Technique, and Three Immortal Seeds are spreading. Do you know what the concept of doubling the yield per acre is?" Wang Li sighed.
Um……
"I am still the concubine of the Zuo family... I'm afraid you will be granted the title of Marquis..." Wang Li suddenly sighed as he spoke.
Now Wang Li is confused. His title, his position, and even his favor, to be honest, all depend on the shadow of his family. Wang Li knows very well how much he weighs...
"Sooner or later you will be made a marquis..." Zhao Si spread his hands.
"Forget it, the world is at war now, where can I go to win the title of Marquis?" Wang Li rolled his eyes.
The Meng family was sitting on the Xiongnu side, and Zhao Tuo was sitting on the Baiyue side. Wang Li couldn't even reach out.
Qin destroyed six kingdoms, and the title of marquis was like wholesale. However, now that Da Qin only has two opponents, they are still in the turmoil, and their achievements are only so little. How can they give themselves the space to be granted the title of marquis for their military achievements?
"Is there a possibility that you can inherit Mr. Wang's title without doing anything?" Zhao Si spread his hands.
"Shang Jun has long since abolished Shiqing Shilu..." Wang Li sighed.
"My father is also a marquis due to his military exploits. How can there be any reason to inherit?"
Zhao Si smiled and did not continue to discuss this issue with Wang Li.
Obviously, Wang Li did not understand the transcendent status of his grandfather Wang Jian. Wang Jian was the only Chehou in the Qin Dynasty, and the only person who stood at the top of the twenty-level military merit pyramid.
Wang Li's confusion is a bit like Versailles to most people in the world.
Fortunately, Wang Li is a big-hearted person. Although he has a strong ambition in his heart, he feels at ease when he lies down. He just sighed indifferently and regained his liveliness for a moment.
"His Majesty is going on a grand tour of the world this time. If it catches up with the new grain harvest, it will be a powerful counterattack to the public opinion... By the way, you are Lang Guan. Who in the world will accompany your Majesty on this grand tour?" Wang Li asked with a smile. Come over.
"With or without me?"
Wang Li was bored out of his mind at Lantian Camp. The boss above his head was his own father. His balls ached from the frustration on weekdays. Wang Li had long wanted to give up his job.
"I will accompany His Majesty and go straight into the palace. The last time I went to Lang Zhongling's office was the last time. Where do you know who is accompanying His Majesty?" Zhao Si smiled and patted Wang Li on the shoulder.
"I don't even know if I can accompany you and patrol the world." Zhao Si spread his hands.
"Come on..." Wang Li rolled his eyes.
"Do you know how many people have asked me to entertain you?" Wang Li snorted.
"Is there still this matter?"
"Let's not mention the Mengxi Bai Sanshi for the moment. The Eighteenth Young Master, the Ninth Young Master, and the Fourth Young Master all came to see me. They wanted to invite you to a banquet, but my father asked me to entrust him to refuse. And you have grown up to take up a position in the palace. It is ordinary. People can’t see you at all. If they want to invite you privately, they must either come to me, Meng Shangqing, or Mr. Zuo. My eldest father asked me to shirk the blame. As for Meng Shangqing and Mr. Zuo, I guess the same is true... "Wang Li said.
"You came back from the sea, suddenly rose to a high position, and then accompanied His Majesty, walking freely in the palace confinement." Wang Li pondered for a moment.
"Zhao Gao, the commander of CRRC, you know."
Zhao Si nodded.
"Zhao Gao is an internal minister and is only responsible for certain things in the palace. Because he can move freely within the palace confinement, the three princes and nine ministers dare not despise him.
But you are different, you are a Langguan, serving His Majesty, walking freely within the palace confinement, Zhao Gao cannot interfere in foreign affairs, you can..." Wang Li said seriously.
"Even if I want to report to His Majesty, I have to go through Lang Zhongling, or go to Li Xiang's side. I can't get past Zhao Gao's side by walking inward."
"You are so popular now..."
Wang Li said seriously.
"Zhao Gao is an internal minister. If you bring up foreign affairs, it would be a breach of duty. But you are a Langguan. It is your job to discuss government affairs. Whoever does well and who doesn't do well...are His Majesty's sons. I may not be able to say a few words to His Majesty in one day."
Zhao Si was silent for a moment and nodded.
In fact, Zhao Si is no longer a political novice. He clearly understands the concept of the favor he has received.
It's just that Zhao Si's relationship is clean, and he has no intention of playing the game of thrones, so there's not that much nonsense.
And objectively speaking, is it possible that my current favor is caused by the fact that my circle is clean enough?
Zhao Si was not good at wielding power, but was his lack of power one of the reasons why the First Emperor was close to him?
"Everyone came to me and wanted to get acquainted with you. My eldest father was worried that you would be in trouble, so he asked me to shirk all the blame... Otherwise, how do you think you are so pure? It's a good thing that you came back from the sea and don't have so many friends and relatives on weekdays. Otherwise, The threshold of your Zhao family has been crossed long ago..."
"But you probably won't be clean for long..." Wang Li shook his head.
Now it's because Zhao Si's return was too short, and Zhao Si was not deeply involved in the world and didn't have much involvement in the court.
Waiting for Zhao Si to gradually take root in the court, Zhao Si will always be in vain and conciliatory.
"Compared to these... I still prefer farming." Zhao Si spread his hands.
In fact, he didn't have much thought about the court of Great Qin. His greatest ideal was to make the lives of thousands of Li concubines better and easier.
Rather than fighting for power with others, what Zhao Si wants more is to implement some policies that benefit the people, so that Da Qin's territory can be expanded a little, the grain output can be a little higher, and the people can live a better life. Some, the First Emperor lived so long.
