Good Life in Qin Dynasty

After the scorching summer, the autumn air is refreshing, and everyone is finally relieved, and then comes the critical moment of autumn harvest!

After a year of hard work, this time is what everyone has been looking forward to for a long time!

But Li Si came looking for trouble again!

"I heard that Qin Anjun came up with the new farm tools. I don't know, what advice does Qin Anjun have for the autumn harvest tools?" Li Si openly provoked Li Jiyang in the morning.

"Yes!" Don't tell me, Li Jiyang really does!

Li Si choked, and looked at Lu Buwei, this was different from what they had agreed on!

Lu Buwei's eyes darkened, and he signaled Li Si to continue!

And Ying Zheng, who was sitting upright on top, glanced at him with sharp eyes: A few days ago, I thought he was pretty good, but what Li Jiyang said about him later made Ying Zheng feel no favors for Li Si, and now it is even more so. Hit bottom!

What does he mean?

"Oh? I don't know what it is?" Li Si could only bite the bullet and continue to ask, not caring about the way Ying Zheng looked at him.

At the same time, he sighed inwardly. Although Lu Buwei helped him a lot, Li Si was not optimistic about Lu Buwei's style of work. Li Si also knew that it was too early to bring up those matters, but Lu Buwei forced him to stand up, and Lu Buwei's disciples, Now they are all officials of a certain size, not committed to their duties but always want to cling to him, always want to compare with him, what's the use of it!

The troubled king doesn't like him now, and of course, he also understands that the king may find Lu Buwei even worse.

What about Qin Anjun?

He has a good background, an old Qin man!

Look at those people in the army, they love him so much!

"There is a thing called a fan car, do you know?" Li Jiyang began to bully others.

In terms of agricultural tools, Li Jiyang did not do much research. He only knows that harvesting tools include tools for harvesting, threshing, and cleaning.

The threshing tools are mainly rice barrels in the south, and the threshing tools are mainly used in the north. The threshing tools that appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period are commonly used in the north and the south.》

After all these appeared, it would be inappropriate for him to toss around again, it would be too easy to pass through, and Qin would not be able to use it!

Cleaning tools are mainly dustpans, wooden shovels, and fan carts. The use of fan carts is nearly a thousand years ahead of the West.

So Li Jiyang chose fan carts, which were still used until the Republic of China. Back then, a professor who specialized in these things went to an ancient mountain village and bought four fan carts at a large price. One of them was It was used by the professor of the history department as an exhibition for everyone.

Well, they secretly dismantled it later...

"...I don't know." Li Si lowered his head while biting his teeth.

"I'm working on it, and I'll bring the drawings tomorrow!" Li Jiyang opened his mouth and said, "Is there anything else?"

"No." Li Si bowed his head, thinking that today they are suddenly attacking, and Qin Anjun can give the blueprint tomorrow?

I don't know how long the new farm tools he studied were used.

Ying Zheng is about to breathe fire!

When everyone was resting, Li Jiyang took Li Jiyang to the Palace of Political Affairs. Before the ministers came, he jumped first: "What's going on? Why are you so stupid? What did you promise him? Didn't you see it? He was pissing you off!"

"I can see it." Li Jiyang tried to comfort him: "Ah Zheng, don't be angry, I really finished the drawing."

"Who are you lying to?" Ying Zheng didn't believe it: "You are with me almost every day, or you go to your factory in the mountains, where do you have time to think about things?"

"Really!" Li Jiyang patted his chest and promised: "I'll bring it to you tomorrow. I told the court today, and I definitely won't let everyone's pigeons go!"

"What's the matter with pigeons?" Ying Zheng didn't understand Li Jiyang's thinking.

"It's just a metaphor, it means to make everyone happy." Li Jiyang casually explained the meaning of releasing the pigeons: "Don't worry, this is not a momentary dispute. I really made a fan car. That's great." used!"

Then I told Ying Zheng that the main function of the fan cart is actually a tool for picking grain. Of course, the empty ones will be blown away by the fan cart, and the full ones will fall down.

After Yingzheng finished listening, he fixed his eyes on Li Jiyang. Li Jiyang was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"Don't worry, I will protect you!" Ying Zheng sighed.

Li Jiyang was even more confused. After returning from dinner in the evening, he quickly drew the blueprint of the fan chariot. The eunuch was the one who didn't follow him back then!

Li Jiyang knew the reason, so he was sent back home by Gan Lei, but Gan Lei didn't sleep much all night, thinking about how to arrange Li Jiyang, now Lu Buwei is not very kind to him, tit for tat is out of the question, but everything stops him It's blocked, but Li Si can use it...

What they could think of, Lu Buwei and Li Si could also think of.

Especially Lu Buwei, he has a lot of land in Qin State, and even has [-] households under his command. When paying grain every year, Lu Buwei arranges a [-]-[-] split, that is, half of the grain and half of the chaff.

Li Si originally obeyed his words and made trouble for Li Jiyang, who knew that the trouble was not found out, but Li Jiyang made trouble for him!

After the court, even Lord Changping and Lord Changwen sent people to ask Lu Buwei what he meant?

Someone asked what Li Si meant?

Li Si was so scared that he didn't dare to speak casually!

Who doesn't know that Li Si is from Lu Buwei?

It wasn't that the one who looked for Qin Anjun in the early court, but in the end Qin Anjun sacrificed the fan car. Just after the court ended, everyone was scratching their heads. If it was true what Qin Anjun said, how could everyone be messing around?

"Master Hou, someone is here again..." Before the butler finished speaking, Lu Buwei interrupted him.

"Go and tell them, it's still unclear!" Lu Buwei was angry: "Don't look around, Li Si didn't know that Qin Anjun had such a thing!"

Li Si was a little moved, but Lu Buwei defended him anyway.

But the next day when he went to court, Li Si didn't wait to mention it. Li Jiyang stood up first and presented the blueprint in front of everyone.

Ying Zheng was a little worried at first, but when he got up in the morning, he had a straight face. When he saw Li Jiyang, he found that this guy was still yawning!

Helpless at the same time, but also a little dumbfounding!

When Li Jiyang presented the blueprint, he really believed that Xiaoyang really thought of this thing from the very beginning!

It is a chronic disease to have deflated grains in the grain, because no one can guarantee that the grains are full, and the court can't help it!

Adulteration has become a matter of course!

The tax was paid from the grain produced in the worst land.

"Okay!" After reading the drawings and the introduction above, Ying Zheng clapped his hands and said, "Come on!"

"The minister is here!" Wang Wan was in charge of the loser's production for the time being, so he stepped forward.

"Take the blueprint, follow it, and test it when you're done. It's really easy to use. I'll prepare it for you all over the Qin Dynasty!" Ying Zheng said happily: "Especially in the place where taxes and food are paid. I hope to see you in the future." All the grains are full!"

"My lord, you haven't discussed with your subjects yet!" Before Wang Wan could speak, Lu Buwei stood up first.

Ying Zheng choked, and he happily forgot that he hadn't been in charge yet!

"What does Xiangguo think?" Ying Zheng had no choice but to ask Lu Buwei, who would let the generals in the army ignore this matter? If the grains are flat, should they be left for the people to eat?"

"I think that out of ten stones, two stones of grains are enough, and eight stones of full grain is enough!" Gan Lei said immediately, and his proposal was very reasonable.

These years, the grain produced by medium-sized fields is [-] to [-]. Of course, the high-quality fields are [-] to [-], that is, [-]% of the grain and [-]% of the grain. The grain of the medium-sized fields is enough to pay the tax standard. Needless to say, the quality of tax and food is also poor. It is possible to have a good Sanqi, and a bad one, even forty or sixty!

Otherwise, the newly reclaimed land would have to be designated as Susukida no matter how good it is!

There is no tax in Susukita!

I am afraid that the quality of the things they grow is not good!

After three to five years, depending on the situation, an example will be given for low-grade fields. The grain produced is logically not eligible for tax payment. At most, the family can keep it for food. There are taxes to follow, and the first-class land is full tax.

The most important thing is, how many wastelands are there to be reclaimed by the people?

There are the least number of high-grade fields, a little bit of middle-grade fields, and more low-grade fields and wasteland.

The upper-class fields have the most big nobles, the middle-class fields have the most small nobles, and the second is the lower-class fields, which are wastelands that are idle and boring to reclaim, in order to cope with the rules and regulations of the court.

Lu Buwei wanted to win over the great nobles, like Wang Wan, who came from a noble family and followed the Ying family for generations. Although the nobles of Qin State have a long history and noble blood compared to other countries.

Including the royal family of the Ying family, the whole Qin country is not very well-born. The ancestors of the Ying family still herded horses and sheep for the emperor of Zhou!

How many noble blood can there be?

Regardless of the great disparity in noble blood, there is also a lot of money.

What Lu Buwei meant just now was to let everyone imagine the tricks in the top-notch fields of their own family and the taxes and grains they paid in the past.
