Watching the back of the man leaving, Duanmu Rong tightened the cloak on her shoulders, and wrapped herself and Lin'er together.

"Lin'er, you have a good father."

"Hmm~"

Chapter 452 996?No, here is a 24-hour continuous rotation, no repeats seven days a week

After leaving Changle Palace, Cao Chao asked Li Si to be found.

"I have seen the king."

It's been a long time since I saw Li Si, and Li Si is more energetic and calm than before.

"Li Shilang, the widow asked you to try growing cassava before, is there any progress now?"

"Report to Your Majesty, the first batch of cassava has been planted, please take a look at it."

As soon as the words fell, a guard brought up a basket covered with sackcloth.

Li Si stepped forward and lifted the sackcloth, took out a thick and yellow thing from inside, and handed it to Cao Chao.

Cao Chao weighed it in his hand, and it weighed almost two catties.

Knocked a few times on the table, it was quite hard.

"Not bad!"

Cao Chao pretended to understand and nodded.

In fact, he has never seen real cassava, and he only read about it in books in his previous life.

Seeing that the king's face remained unchanged, Li Si couldn't guess the other party's attitude for a while.

Feeling a little drummed in his heart, he simply took out a box from his arms.

"My lord, here are the dried cassava after drying."

After finishing speaking, he handed the box to Cao Chao.

Taking advantage of Cao Chao's opportunity to pick up the dried cassava and examine it carefully, Li Si continued:

"Weichen used to grind cassava into powder according to the method that the king said, and then soaked it in water and gave it to some condemned prisoners."

"After a week, the death row inmates didn't feel any discomfort."

Cao Chao's eyes lit up when he heard the words, it seems that this method can indeed cure the poison.

"You did well."

"Tell me about your next plan."

Li Si breathed a sigh of relief after finally being praised by the king.

"Weichen intends to select two military bases to plant first.

"If there are no major problems, it can be widely planted in all military bases next year."

Speaking of this, Li Si thought for a while, then made up his mind, and continued,

"However, Weichen suggested that we only need to plant cassava in those lower fields."

"The upper field is still used to grow rice."

Cao Chao nodded slightly when he heard the words, and immediately heard the other party's intentions.

It seemed that Li Si had really put a lot of thought into this matter.

Cassava is resistant to drought and barrenness. There is not much difference in yield when planted in the upper field and in the lower field.

That's why Li Si proposed to grow grains in the field and cassava in the field to optimize resources.

"That's right, Li Shilang is very thoughtful and will do as you say."

"Your Majesty Yingming!"

Seeing that Cao Chao understood his intention so quickly, Li Si was also a little surprised.

He also came to this conclusion after several months of practice and repeated groping in the fields every day.

Unexpectedly, the king saw through it at a glance.

Your Majesty is not only good at fighting and strategizing, but also knows so much about farming. He is really a god-man!

Just as Li Si was thinking, Cao Chao's voice came from beside his ear.

"Okay, I will leave this matter to you.

"The widow hopes to see a bumper harvest of cassava in the two places this autumn, and to spread cassava to military bases across the country next year."

After all, Cao Chao began to make cakes for the other party.

"Li Shilang, as long as you can handle this matter well, it will be a great achievement!"

"In the future, the widow will never treat you badly."

However, this is exactly what Li Si did.

Being promised by Cao Chao for a while, my heart immediately blossomed.

"This humble minister will definitely go all out to live up to the great king's trust!"

"Okay, Aiqing is indeed the pillar of the country!"

Cao Chao's face was full of joy, and then he pretended to think of something, and said hesitantly:

"The widow has another important matter here, and I wanted to hand it over to Ai Qing.

"And I'm afraid that Ai Qing is too tired to be busy, or I'll give it to Zhang Cang..."

However, Cao Chao was interrupted by Li Si before he finished speaking.

"Your Majesty, as a minister, you must devote yourself to yourselves, and die, how can you complain about suffering and tiredness?"

"Besides, I'm in the prime of life, and I'm in the prime of life, so I can handle it!"

Hearing that the king wanted to find Zhang Cang, Li Si was in a hurry.

Although the two are from the same family and are good friends, they are also in a competitive relationship.

"That's right, Aiqing is indeed a capable minister, I have not misunderstood you."

After finishing speaking, Cao Chao took out a cowhide from his arms.

This is the recipe for papermaking and ink that he just obtained from the system mall.

For these two things, Cao Chao did not hesitate to spend all the gold he got from Qi State, a total of 1000 million catties of gold.

It hurts to think about it now

Handing over the cowhide to Li Si with great care, Cao Chao said solemnly,

"This object is a priceless treasure that I got in an ancient tomb by chance."

"It is said that according to this method, something called "xuan paper" and "oil smoke ink" can be produced.

"Using these two things to record words will not break for a hundred years, and will last forever, and it is a hundred times lighter than bamboo."

"There is such a thing!"

Li Si was shocked when he heard this.

Looking at Cao Chao's eyes became complicated.

Of course, Li Si is not a mediocre person who can leave his name in the history. He can immediately think of the importance of these two things.

Not to mention anything else, with these two things, countless classic works can be spread more easily.

However, for such an important thing, the other party was able to bear it until now.

What is the purpose behind it is self-explanatory.

The king obviously had to wait for the big man to be full-fledged before taking out these two things.

With these two things, the big man can easily win over the Confucianists. From then on, the big man will no longer lack talents.

More importantly, the King of Union has recently asked Gongsun Teng to be responsible for building a school for doctors. Will he also build a school for scholars in the future?

Xuegong plus rice paper and ink...

God!

Li Si took a breath.

With these three sharp weapons, how many people in the family of scholars can resist this temptation?

I am afraid that in less than ten years, the Great Han Dynasty will become a gathering place for scholars, literati, and virtuous people.

Thinking of this, Li Si couldn't help looking at Cao Chao with a trace of fear.

In terms of profound layout and forbearing character, I am afraid that no one in the world can compare with the great king in front of him.

"Weichen will definitely do his best to get these two things out as soon as possible."

Li Si bowed respectfully upwards.

"very good."

With a big wave of his hand, Cao Chao dumped the burden directly on Li Si, a wage earner.

"This matter is no small matter, the widow will set up a publishing bureau, presided over by Ai Qing, who will take full responsibility for this matter.

"I don't need to go through the prime ministers for matters in the publishing bureau, they are directly reported to me or the three wives for decision.

"In addition, the widow will dispatch a thousand forbidden troops to guard the publishing office day and night to ensure that the contents inside will not be leaked.

Speaking of this, Cao Chao skillfully threw out a sweet date.

"This matter is a feat of benefiting the country and the people, as long as Aiqing can get these two things out, it will definitely be famous in history in the future.

"The widow will never be stingy with rewards."
