The host is a slime [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 168 Egyptian Priests Day 5

Serafat originally thought that Governor Ohm called him here to talk about crafts with him or to make him surrender. Who knew that the young Governor would directly take Several rolls of snow-white paper came out.

Papyrus!

Serafat's eyes lit up instantly!

He originally planned to find a chance to see if he could get a piece of papyrus from the governor to look at and touch it... It would be even better if he could take one away.

Who knew that the other party would be so generous, he didn't even open his mouth, so he gave out several volumes!

However, this joy was quickly dispelled by Ohm's words, and he realized that the punishment was not for him, but for him to see the things drawn on the papyrus.

Feeling lost and curious, Serafat, who loves to read, still glanced at the papyrus, but he couldn't take his eyes away after seeing it: "This, what's on it..."

Ohm blinked at Elim, and he knew that he didn't need to be imaginary to deal with this kind of craftsman, as long as he was given a bait, he could be hooked.But he said it seriously: "These things were all drawn by His Highness Elim under the guidance of the gods, because Ahanmo said that you are very talented in this area, so I hope the Serafat family can Try to make these things. Of course, you can take this blueprint back and study it slowly. If you really make it, there will be rich rewards."

Serafat didn't notice the generous reward Ohm said later. When he heard that he could take the blueprint back, he was a little dizzy: "I, can I really take it?"

"Of course, but I hope it won't spread, understand?" Ohm said while rolling up the papyrus and handing it to Serafat—these papyrus were "processed" by Elim's spell , he is not worried about the information being leaked, but what needs to be tapped still needs to be tapped.

Serafat's beard was trembling with excitement, holding several rolls of papyrus fluttering in his hands, he didn't know whether it was the papyrus or something on the papyrus that made him feel ups and downs.

Agriculture was the first thing Ohm and Elim wanted to reform in Lower Egypt, so what Ohm gave Serafat were drawings of some agricultural tools—it was because the way Egyptian farmers farmed was too rudimentary.

It's different from digging, fertilizing, and sowing in another country in the ancient East. Because they live next to the Nile River, most of the farming matters are "represented" by their Nile River mother.

The Nile River floods every summer. Of course, after thousands of years, people will find a scientific explanation that it is because of tidal effects, but in this era when encountering unknown events is attributed to ghosts and gods, the Nile River The annual flooding of the river at a fixed time is their Nile mother's anger and blessing for them.

Because the flooding of the Nile is not a bad thing.

Every time there is a flood, the surging flood will wash away the excess salt in the downstream land, and at the same time bring the fertile silt from the upstream, so that the land along the Nile River will be in a fertile state every year without artificial fertilization.

Although Egyptian farmers did not understand the benefits of fertilization for crop growth, they discovered this stable natural phenomenon very early, and they called it the gift of Mother Nile.

Therefore, even if the Nile River floods every year with violent winds and showers, lightning and thunder, and huge waves, but the fear in their hearts is nothing but fear, they still look forward to this time of the year.

Because after the mother of the Nile River got angry, they didn't have to bother to cultivate the land at all. They only needed to wait for the natural irrigation of the river flood on a fixed day every year, wait for the water to recede, and then scatter the crop seeds on the ground, put them in and step on the mud. It's over.

Yes, this is the simple and crude way of farming in Egypt.

When Ohm first learned about it, he was stunned. No breeding, fertilization, and seedling protection existed in their cultivation process.

It can be said that the Nile River played a decisive role in enabling the Egyptian people to thrive and develop a brilliant civilization from generation to generation.No wonder they respect and deify the Nile River as their mother.

However, this does not mean that Ohm agrees with this farming method.

Indeed, with the fixed flooding period of the Nile River from July to October every year, the farmers don't have to worry about the problems of crops and land, but they just see the free fertilizer brought by the Nile River, so how come they don't care about it? Notice that as the Nile washes away, the land along the river is much narrower than it was in the beginning?

Moreover, when the Nile River flooded, it brought more disasters and casualties, not only human lives, but also livestock and crops, but in the eyes of the rulers, they never stopped eating and clothing. , did not attract much attention.

But it is the key point for Ohm and Elim to cut in.

To improve the method of farming, of course, it cannot be done in a few words, even with convenient farm tools, it cannot be achieved overnight, especially in this place in Lower Egypt. Although Ohm now has the official position of a governor on his head, in fact, he He is very clear about how much real power he has and how many people listen to him.

Therefore, at this time, it is Elim who will use his ability as a "good wife" - as I said before, because Lower Egypt was under the jurisdiction of Natadia before, so for her and Eli as a priestess Mu has a relatively strong worship phenomenon, so when they started their plan to completely control Lower Egypt, Elim was the first to contact those people.

They didn't stay in his private army all the time, but were scattered in various fields.

Some are administrative officials like Ahanmo, some are Nome nobles, and some are craftsmen... In short, there are people from all walks of life, seemingly chaotic, but Ohm knows that this is the penetration of power into all walks of life , Once the time comes, you can immediately find the corresponding subordinates.

So this time he asked Ahanmo to bring Serafat. In fact, before Serafat, they had already met several groups of people, and the things they got from Ohm were not the same.

It's just that it's not the time for them to get to know each other, so in the eyes of outsiders, it's just that people come to visit the Governor's Mansion every now and then, which can't make a difference.

Even in the reports submitted by those eyeliners to the Pharaoh, it was written that Elim and Ohm met those officials and Nome nobles, trying to win over each other, but when those people basically left the Governor's Palace, they were not very happy, with serious expressions rigid.

Of the [-] Nome regions, Ohm and Elim had contact with less than half of them. It seems that these young couples are also unpopular, and the local Lower Egyptian nobles did not buy their face-saving information.

The pharaoh and the eyeliners didn't know that these officials and nobles who looked unhappy on the surface were just excited to suppress their inner joy, so they forced a poker face, resulting in stiff and distorted expressions.After they returned, they issued the fastest order to start implementing the new farming plan that His Highness Elim had arranged for them.

And in order to increase the production of the company's agricultural products, Ohm and Elim also secretly arranged hundreds of slaves to go to the wasteland to organize reclamation. At the same time, they also formulated many new irrigation plans to cope with the dry season of the Nile River and I don't know when the drought year will come.

A subversive cultivation revolution is quietly spreading in eight of the Nome regions in Lower Egypt.

Feeling that the Pharaoh, who is a god, was very satisfied with the situation in Lower Egypt reported by his eyeliner, so he put down the information and had more time to play the scene of the domineering pharaoh and the runaway sweet concubine with Ariel—although Ariel Sad Ohm and Elim went to Lower Egypt to live after they got married, but because of fighting with Pharaoh and goblin every night, she was already pregnant.She is still a child at heart, and she can't accept that she wants to be a mother for a while, but the education she has received since she was a child does not allow her to have an abortion.

So the impression of her pregnancy made her mind more sensitive, coupled with the pharaoh's previous wives and concubines, Ariel and Pharaoh had conflicts and reconciliation for a while, quarreling and kissing and hugging.

There was even an absurd incident in which Ariel became jealous when she saw the Pharaoh and Queen Asidani getting intimate, and wanted to jump into the Nile with the child in her belly.

Although the pharaoh was in his prime, his daily government affairs were not easy, and he had to deal with the noisy Ariel in his free time. Also reduced a lot.

Of course, apart from Pharaoh, there are several other forces in Upper Egypt who are also paying attention to Ohm and Elim.

The first to bear the brunt is naturally what Natadia from Elim.

Natadia not only has a beautiful appearance, but also has extraordinary wisdom. Most importantly, although she is Princess Hitty, from the moment she learned that she was going to marry the Egyptian pharaoh, she did not have the extravagant expectations will have love.

Natadia is actually a very cold woman. She doesn't have much ambition, but she doesn't mind using some means to make herself comfortable.

Therefore, after marrying Pharaoh, she tried her best to win over Pharaoh and got his favor. After Pharaoh passed away unexpectedly, she calmly weighed the pros and cons and married the current Pharaoh with the child in her belly—of course, in terms of face Sadness still needs to be done, and her previous husband was indeed very good to her, and she also has two parts of affection.

She never thought about not wanting the child in her womb at the beginning, so after she felt that the child in her womb might be a boy, she arranged for her confidants to make enough plans to make the child a "princess"—she could see clearly Well, the current pharaoh's mind is not as good as his brother's, and the method of getting the throne here is not clean. She can only rely on her children who are related to her blood.

And Elim did not live up to Natadia's expectations, so Natadia spared no effort to pave the way for Elim.

Originally, she didn't want Elim to be with Ohm, and even had the idea of ​​assassinating Ohm—although Elim appeared to be a woman, she knew that Elim's heart and character were strong A man, she was quite guilty of letting her son pretend to be a daughter in order to survive, and she really didn't want Elim to be forced to marry a man like a woman.

But after Elim had a thorough discussion with her, she understood that he really only liked Ohm not because of the disguised identity of a man and a woman, so she let go of her murderous thoughts, and even expressed her love for Elim on many occasions. Love support.

It's funny to say, but this move of hers gained a wave of goodwill from Pharaoh. She felt that she was really Gao Jie who had no desires or desires. Much respect and love for Natadia.

But Pharaoh's love is not important to Natadia, she is not the kind of person Asidani.

Before Elim and Ohm went to Lower Egypt, Natadia completely handed over the secret line of her business in Lower Egypt for many years to the two of them, and she could just quietly be a good queen in the palace of the capital Baicheng—— By the way, you can also help keep an eye on the pharaoh's movements.

With the help of Queen Natadia, Ohm and Elim are like diving into the sea. In just three years, Lower Egypt has been completely controlled by the two of them, and it is governed like an iron bucket. What they can get over there is only the news they want to leak.

But at this time, Ohm and Elim set their sights on another area, which was not Upper Egypt, but their "neighborhood".
