Emperor Qin

The turmoil at the top did not affect the lives of the grassroots, and the people in Guanzhong were still busy with the autumn wheat planting.

Some of the dry and barren subfields had beans, most of which had been harvested, leaving only a few children wandering in the bean fields, trying to find pods that had been left in the ground - they could take them home and put them in the ground. Grilled on the side of the stove and served as a snack.

Some people took the sun-dried beans to the newly built oil mill. In Shaofu's new oil mill, a catty of beans can be exchanged for a tael of oil, and the remaining soybean meal can be sold to Shaofu oil mill for tax credit.

Soybean oil, a novelty, quickly occupied the dining tables of the upper class in Xianyang, making the low-priced soybeans soaring all the way. The scheming commoners tried to use soybeans to soak in water to change more oil, but they were sent to repair canals.

Although modern society avoids oil, it is a necessity for life. The value of this new soybean oil is not only to adjust the diet structure, but also to make ordinary people have an extra income, mobilize the surplus food of the rich, and optimize society Resources make this ordinary bean have a powerful ability to promote the economy and make ordinary people live better.

"The sowing area of ​​wheat and beans has increased dramatically this year. If beans don't take up the field, it just adds a lot of trouble to the internal history of Yesu." Xiang Liyun took Yan Jiang to walk in the large wheat field on the bank of the Weibei River, " In the past, we all planted corn, and we lost only one kind, but now we have beans and wheat, so it is very annoying to harvest."

"They will get used to it," Yan Jiang smiled slightly, "Have you made all the soy milk and tofu?"

Beans do not have high requirements for water and fertilizer. The only trouble is that they are not easy to digest, and it is too wasteful to cook them thoroughly—even in modern society, the voltage cooker has set the highest independent gear for "bean tendons" , one can imagine its power.

If he ate a bowl of undercooked beans and rice, he would be useless for at least half a day.

"It's done," Xiang Liyun smiled proudly, "It's not a difficult thing, but these are the food of the rich."

How can ordinary people eat these.

Yan Jiang smiled and said, "How many mills have you opened in Shaofu?"

In recent years, Shaofu has become very interested in running mills and selling agricultural tools, especially the mills by the water, which have low input and high output, and have increased a lot of income for the country. The mill is going to be opened in the land of Zhao Yan, Han Wei, but the wheat planting there has not yet spread, but this can't stop them, especially the county guards from all over the country, who are already preparing to introduce winter wheat planting in their jurisdiction.

Xiangliyun reported a four-figure number, which was praised by Yan Jiang, and the two walked through a composting land. As the Sanpu land in Xianyang, Guanzhong promoted composting technology the most. With the help of Zheng Guoqu, the food outbreak in Guanzhong strongly supported Qiang Qin to open up the territory.

"The army is about to be recruited. Is there enough livestock here?" Yan Jiang asked with a frown as he looked at the woman who was plowing cattle not far away.

"At least Guanzhong is enough," Xiang Liyun hissed lightly when he said this, "You don't even know that Zhang Liang..."

"What about Zhang Liang?" Yan Jiang asked curiously.

"You recommend him to open up business routes, he really has vision," Xiang Liyun praised the young man with some taste, "He is also eloquent, not only has he pulled up a team, but also has a large number of people in South County and Northland. Half of the cattle and horses in Guanzhong are provided by him, and the tea production of the Yue people in Nanjun is increasing day by day, supplying Guanzhong, because of this matter, the Wu brothers are asking me to make a fuss."

Money touches people's hearts. The opening of the north-south trade route is not only watched by many upper-class nobles, but also hindered by the alien races of the Six Kingdoms and the north and south. Under such a huge pressure, the young man named Zhang Liang is able to handle it with ease. The time has opened up the situation on both sides, and now more and more aristocratic and wealthy households have participated in it, such as the Ba widow in Sichuan, the Zhuo family of Wei, and the Bai family of Han.

Yan Jiang laughed softly, of course it’s no problem, this is Zhang Liang, he traveled around the old places of the six countries when he was young, he could go to South Korea for a round trip, even Zhang Liang who almost killed the King of Qin and escaped smoothly, the Xiongnu For him, a little trouble with the Yue people in Nanjun is just a temper on the road to growth.

"How did he take down Yueren?" Yan Jiang asked again.

"Nanjun County and Qianzhong County have many mountains and less fields, and the dampness and heat are prevalent, but they are natural places for tea production," Xiang Liyun said contemptuously, "the Yue people lack millet and salt, and obviously a bag of millet can be exchanged for a bag of tea. He just raised the price by three bags, making many tea merchants lose money, if it wasn't for you as a backer, they would have been torn to pieces."

Although Yan Zi did not enter the court as an official, his position in King Qin's heart was tacitly understood by everyone.

This is the reason, Yan Jiang thought about the era when one or two teas were exchanged for at least ten catties of rice in later generations, and smiled: "Then there is a north-south trade route?"

"Of course there is. The South County is called the Tea Road, and the North is called the Horse Road. It can be used by mules and horses. There are also many small villages gathered along the way." , at least you can be promoted to a servant to rule over mules and horses and officials."

Yan Jiang smiled slightly: "His merit is not on the tea-horse road."

Xiang Liyun was taken aback, confused.

Yan Jiang chuckled and said, "His heart is more than that."

As long as Zhang Liang still has great ambitions in his heart, he will not just do business in the north and the south, and the false and true information on both sides is what he should know the most, and he wants to make a contribution. The Daqin ship has come aboard, but it will not be so easy to get off.

Thinking of this, he was in a great mood, and continued to look for the painter in Chuli with Huahua.

He has learned a lot from these painters these days. Chu Di likes all beautiful things, so he is very skilled in the development of mineral pigments, not only mineral pigments such as azurite, stone green, cinnabar, and realgar, but also loess, chalk, ocher The earthy pigments such as shells and shells are enough for him to paint.

Xiang Liyun didn't go there. The paint is poisonous, and most of the painters have paint sores, which is very scary. Yan Jiang went to give them some soap and herbs for clearing away heat and detoxification, discussed the importance of ventilation for painting, and left.

Although lacquer is poisonous, it is too important, and if there is no substitute, it cannot prevent trading and harm.

He also observed the people's livelihood around Xianyang, and found that the wheelbarrow has almost become a regular vehicle, the number of two-wheeled vehicles has also increased, and the number of fallow fields has decreased a lot. Although wars have been fought for many years, the most important thing is that the number of children has increased a lot. ——The number of children directly reflects whether a place is rich or not.

If this kind of change can be extended to the entire country...it would be beautiful to think about it.

Qin Wang's execution ability is also amazing.

He happily returned to Linjiang Palace, pushed King Qin, who was about to question him why he came back so late, onto the couch, and praised and consoled him.

Qin Wang preemptively refused, not wanting to be perfunctory by A Jiang, but he said he didn't want to, but his body was honest and tight, and he had to ask after the sage's time if he wanted to run away again after taking the initiative.

Yan Jiang wanted to say yes, but his desire to survive made him resolutely change his words to comfort him: "The wedding is at the right time, how could I leave, my lord, you are too worried."

In fact, in the past few days, fighting seems to be more meaningful to life than death, and to experience the integrity of living. Yan Jiang is still a little bit reluctant to leave like this.

The King of Qin saw through his insincere words, and his expression was displeased: "There are still mausoleums in the mountains, and the rivers are endless. A Jiang's oath is just a casual statement."

Yan Jiang blushed, so he promised: "At least until General Wang Jian sends troops, I will not leave you."

It was still at least half a year, King Qin was a little satisfied, and after kissing A Jiang for a while, he got up energetically to correct the unfinished memorial.

Yan Jiang hugged Huahua when he was suddenly burped by something hard. He picked it up and saw that it was the scarlet phoenix-shaped accessory on King Qin's clothes.

He turned his head to look at King Qin's smooth and fit back sitting in front of the desk, licked his lips slightly, and touched the warm accessories that looked like jade but not jade. feel.

A little tired, he took a rest with his accessories, and the battle was very exhausting.

Inexplicably, I had a dream, my own blood mixed with the blood stains on the stone carvings at the bottom of the cliff before I died, and there was a clear and high-pitched phoenix cry in the confusion, the sound moved the world, and there was a raging fire on my body... The picture suddenly Turning around again, he hung the accessories and walked into the raging fire indifferently. The pain and anxiety filled the flesh and blood, but there was no desire to escape the pain in his soul.

Waking up suddenly, he saw King Qin hugging him and sleeping soundly, his brows and eyes full of contentment, Yan Jiang just wanted to have a happy aftertaste when he saw——His Majesty, who had changed his number, was still playing books at night.

Yan Jiang put his head on Qin Wang's chest, and suddenly wanted to go to Zhihu to ask "What is it like to have a workaholic boyfriend" and was amused by himself.

In fact, after two hundred years in 2000, it was very good to meet him.

Chu Guo can't run away, so it's better to accompany Ah Zheng first.

Three days later, in the dust flying from Xianyang's official road, Li Xin rode a horse and returned to the capital in a dejected manner.

Behind him was Lieutenant General Meng Tian, ​​and a dozen captains. The whole army was like a lost eggplant, lifeless.

Didaohou Li Yao, who was rushing back to Xianyang to report on his duties, looked at his son. The middle-aged man waited for him for a day, but he did not criticize his son as usual. Don't be discouraged, the two nobles of the Li family in Longxi can practice for you, it's not a big deal.

Li Xin raised his head, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty and his subordinates are so talented, they won't give me another chance."

He has followed the king for many years, and he is not familiar with his temperament. If he fails, he will replace him, let alone a failure with such a huge loss.

Li Yao shook her head slightly: "Although you have done it before, but this time, it's not your fault. Although it is impossible to destroy Chu with 20 yuan, it is still possible to win a few games, but I didn't expect it for my father. It will involve you, a general who leads the army, into it."

Li Xin was taken aback.

Li Yao dismissed the left and right, and told him the recent events one by one, making Li Xin dumbfounded for a moment, but if this was true, then as the blamed man, he would have no room to turn around.

Is this a miserable word?

Li Yao was annoyed by that appearance, and kicked her son away: "Be more energetic, otherwise how can you plead for mercy?"

Li Xin said listlessly, "Your Majesty won't listen to pleadings."

That's the King of Qin, if he decides, he won't change it.He was so desperate when he thought that he could only farm in his hometown in the future.

"You idiot!" Li Yao was furious, "Who said he won't listen anymore, don't you have a good connection, can you blow pillow wind?"

"Huh?" Li Xin was bewildered.
