Qin Shi Big Boss

Chapter 132 The Wonderful Story of the Grassland

"If the cow walks in the field, wouldn't it trample the entire field?" A minister said in confusion.

Situ Wanli couldn't help laughing, and said: "Those cattle are here to assist in planting, and they cooperate with Quyuanli to open up the soil in the field for planting."

"So it is." The minister felt a little ashamed, and continued to lower his head.

"Not bad!" King Qin Zhuangxiang praised, and picked off a leaf, "I've never seen this leaf before. Could this be the potato you mentioned?"

"Exactly, these are potatoes, and the yield is extremely high." Situ Wanli cupped his hands and said.

Several farmers came over, looking very angry.

"who are you?"

"Is it the agents sent by the six kingdoms of Shandong to steal our potatoes?"

"These potatoes are a gift from the heavens to us old Qin people, and you must not steal them away."

Without waiting for everyone's feedback, the farmer's cry attracted a group of soldiers, who surrounded King Qin Zhuangxiang to the brim.Because they were all dressed in civilian clothes, they did not recognize King Zhuangxiang of Qin.

"You guys who steal potatoes, don't even try to leave."

"Humph!! Agents of the Six Kingdoms of Shandong."

"Looking at the shiny faces of you people, you can tell that you are not a good person."

The minister couldn't bear it, so he immediately scolded: "Bold! Do you know who this is?"

"Who are you?" The soldier didn't care.

Just as he was about to draw his sword, he saw Situ Wanli and said in surprise, "Master of the farmhouse, why are you here?"

"I'm here to accompany the king to inspect the farm today." Situ Wanli said calmly.

Everyone was shocked and quickly knelt on the ground.

"Ping Shen!" King Qin Zhuangxiang was not angry.

"Your Majesty, we are guilty and dare not stand up." The soldiers said in unison, the evil deeds just now were enough to kill them ten thousand times.

However, who would have guessed that King Qin Zhuangxiang, a very powerful figure in the Seven Kingdoms, would come to a small farm.

"Get up as soon as I tell you to get up." Qin Zhuangxiang King said with a smile, these people are so competent, he is not happy enough, so how can he be surprised.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Everyone said in unison.

"I didn't expect that I would be able to meet the king's side. It's really luck. I met the prince's side during the imperial examination a while ago. I really have no regrets to die, no regrets to die." said the old man with a broken arm .

"Old man, what's the matter with the imperial examination?" King Qin Zhuangxiang asked curiously.

"At that time, I was busy working in the field, and someone said that he would take me to the Prince's Mansion and ask me some questions. I was bored at that time, and I didn't do anything..." the old man with a broken arm said eloquently.

"I've also heard a little bit about this matter. The Confucian descendants have bad intentions. They have been expelled from Confucianism, and they are not doing very well in other countries." Situ Wanli continued.

"It was a good thing, but it seems that Zheng'er is really under a lot of pressure, but I can't help him." King Qin Zhuangxiang felt very ashamed.

"Your Majesty, you don't know. At that time, His Highness the Crown Prince was arguing fiercely among the Confucian scholars. It was an impassioned scene. Those juniors from the school went to battle one after another, but they couldn't argue with the Crown Prince." The broken-armed old man said proudly.

When everyone heard the words, they all praised Ying Zheng non-stop, and they were even more in awe of Ying Zheng.

"The prince's eloquence is so good that even Xunzi can't compare with it."

"It is Qin's luck to have the prince here."

"It is God who cares about our Qin country and our old Qin people."

King Qin Zhuangxiang was very happy to see that Yingzheng's public opinion was so high, and he felt relieved a lot.

When they arrived near Quyuanli, a farm ox stood motionless on the spot.

"Niu Er, come and meet the king." The old man with the broken arm hurried forward.

Flood Niu remained motionless and looked at the old man with a broken arm coldly.

"Niu Er, if you don't salute, you will be disrespected and you will be killed." The broken-armed old man said anxiously.

The flood cow whistled and flicked its tail, and many flies flew out.

Everyone laughed, this old man really meant something.

"Don't embarrass him. The cattle are not human beings. How can they understand the truth?" King Qin Zhuangxiang quickly called the frugal old man back.

"Old man, come back!" Situ Wanli said loudly.

The old man with the broken arm returned quickly, and muttered in a low voice: "This guy is very sneaky, but today he is so sincere, it's really strange."

The crowd laughed again.

"Look at Quyuanli!" King Qin Zhuangxiang said loudly.

"Let me do it!" Situ Wanli said, took off his shoes and pantyhose, and then dismantled Qu Yuanli for a brief punishment.

Looking at Qu Yuanli, everyone began to study in low voices.

"It turns out that this is the thing, just a small piece of iron, which can probably double the yield of potatoes."

"The world is so big and has so many shapes and forms. Only today do I understand what Zhuangzi meant when he said that there is no limit."

"Zhuangzi, a peerless eccentric!"

Regardless of the dirty soil, King Zhuangxiang of Qin stroked it and said softly, "What a Quyuanli, it's really sharp!"

"Your Majesty, look at that side, it is the time for Quyuanli to cultivate." Situ Wanli pointed to the east.

Everyone turned around and looked, only to see a ox, equipped with a curved plow, turning up the soil while walking, at an extremely fast speed.

"Oh my god! It's so hot!"

"I saw farmers planting when I was a kid, but the speed was obviously several times faster than that."

"It's too sharp!"

"These are all carefully decided by the descendants of the Mohist family." Situ Wanli admired the Mohist people very much.

"They must be rewarded heavily, and they must not be chilling." King Qin Zhuangxiang said cautiously.

"If it wasn't for His Highness the Crown Prince, I would have only one arm. Things were very difficult. It was his Qu Yuanli and Niu Er who sponsored me." The broken-armed old man said sincerely.

"You are so old, why do you still have to work?" King Qin Zhuangxiang asked in surprise.

"My son and grandson have both died in the battlefield, so they have to work." The old man with a broken arm recalled the sad things.

"Since the introduction of sweet potatoes, can the elderly everywhere receive dried sweet potatoes for free?" Situ Wanli was surprised.

"Although I am old, I don't like to sit every day. Only in this environment can I find the meaning of existence." The old man with the broken arm said truthfully.

"I didn't expect that ordinary old people in the country understand justice so well. How can the Qin State not be strong?" Situ Wanli thought in his heart.

After they bid farewell to the old man, they knew that Ying Zheng was in the canteen of the farm, and they all came here.

In the farm, the spicy and sour potato shreds and potato braised beef were quickly wiped out by a few noodles, leaving only empty plates.Even the soup on the plate was very little.

"It's so delicious! Braised beef with potatoes and spicy and sour potato shreds. I only tasted it once, and it is unforgettable and will be remembered for life. Prince, can you make a little more? I'm not full yet." Dongjun Feiyan He touched his belly.

"That's right! The hot and sour potato shreds are specially prepared. They are really delicious. I'm so hungry now. Prince, please make a little more!" Ji Yanran said coquettishly, hugging Ying Zheng's arm, Clash on the chest.

"To tell you the truth! I'm also greedy right now. Prince, if you do a little more, those just now won't be enough for others to eat." Xuenv was even more straightforward, hugging Ying Zheng from behind, her fair hair The silk hangs down, and a faint fragrance can be smelled vaguely.

"You little greedy cat." Ying Zheng scratched Xue Nu's nose.

"It's not just me. Look at the greedy little cat on the right. It's drooling. It's obviously daydreaming." Xue Nu was not angry and whispered in Ying Zheng's ear, "If you don't do it for me, Eat, your bed will be cold tonight."

"..." Ying Zheng felt a chill on his back, as if someone had written the word "kill" with a human emperor pen.

"Take a look! Prince, please make some more. I like hot and sour potato shreds very much. Just give me a big plate." Ji Yanran simply pretended to meow. People are whimsical.

"To be honest, I'm not full yet. Prince, can you make some more beef stew with potatoes." The Zhu family touched the back of his head in embarrassment, but turned around trembling, and quickly knelt on the ground.

"Prince, you see that the Zhu family has said so, hurry up and make hot and sour potato shreds!" Xue Nu continued.

Just as Ying Zheng wanted to agree, he was startled when he saw a familiar figure at the gate. He quickly broke away from Xue Nu and stood up.

"What's the situation?" Ji Yanran asked in surprise, she got up reluctantly, but when she saw the person outside the door, she was startled and opened her mouth wide.

"Oh my God! Everything I did just now has been seen." Xue Nu was as shy as if seeing her parents-in-law, she lowered her head firmly, not daring to meet King Qin Zhuangxiang's eyes.

"East Lord Feiyan of the Yinyang family has met King Qin." After Dongjun Feiyan reported back, she quickly saluted King Qin Zhuangxiang.

"Prince Ying Zheng, I have met my father." Ying Zheng saluted immediately.

"Snow Girl has met the king." Snow Girl saluted, never looking up, her face getting redder and redder. This was the first time she saw King Qin Zhuangxiang.

"Onmyoji Ji Yanran has met the king." Ji Yanran quickly saluted, but Ying Zheng's father caught a glimpse of the scene just now.

King Zhuangxiang of Qin glanced at Ying Zheng, and said lightly, "Zheng'er, you really know how to enjoy it."

The meaning of the words is self-evident, that is to say, Ying Zheng is only 12 years old, and he is so obsessed with women.

It left a very bad impression not only on King Qin, but also on the officials who followed him.

In the minds of some ministers, Yingzheng's bright and upright image was broken. They felt that Yingzheng had been deified too much in the past. In fact, he was just a person whose intelligence far surpassed that of an adult.

"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Things are not what you think. It was because we wanted to beg the Crown Prince to cook some dishes for us, and that happened just now." Ji Yanran's expression changed drastically, and she felt that King Qin Zhuangxiang wanted to punish her. Ying Zheng.

"Actually, the relationship between us and the prince is not what the king thought." The snow girl was anxious and quickly explained.

Not only the ministers present, even Dongjun Feiyan and Ji Yanran looked at Xue Nu with disbelief.

They all slept on the same bed, it's not what you think, even if you say this, you don't believe it yourself!
Believe it or not, the explanation still needs to be explained. After all, this is related to Yingzheng, and it is related to the rise and fall of the entire Qin State.

"It's not what your majesty thinks, it's really a misunderstanding. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask the Zhu family." Dongjun Feiyan simply put the burden on the Zhu family and asked him to explain.

The Zhu family nodded, and began to "lie", with an unusually thick skin.

When the officials heard the words, they all nodded, obviously trusting the Zhu family's words.

"It turned out that we misunderstood His Highness the Crown Prince."

"I know that His Royal Highness is not that kind of person."

"It's all a misunderstanding, friends, stop thinking about it."

King Zhuangxiang of Qin nodded his head after listening to the Zhu family's explanation. He still had some disbelief, and said in a low voice, "The Zhu family is the hero of Tianshe. He has always been known for his chivalry. He is an honest person. He probably wouldn't deceive me."

"..." The Zhu family was temporarily at a loss for words, and their reputation for the rest of their lives was probably ruined here.

Ying Zheng hurried over, blinked his big bright eyes, and said softly, "Father, I'm only 12 years old now."

As soon as this remark came out, the ministers who were still a little skeptical chose to trust him one after another.

"The prince is only 12 years old, even if he wants to do something, he can't do anything."

"Well, it makes sense. At his age, I'm just a little bit hot, and I don't have any influence at all."

"Misunderstanding, everything is misunderstanding."

"It turns out that it was the father who blamed you by mistake." King Qin Zhuangxiang chuckled lightly.

Yingzheng was temporarily at a loss for words. Although they all chose to trust him, they always felt that they were at a big loss, and what they said seemed strange.

"My lord, it's because the hot and sour potato shreds and potato stewed beef are so delicious that we have such upside-down behavior." The snow girl chuckled, very pretty, like snowflakes falling in winter, when it melts, it emits an extraordinary fragrance color.

"It is indeed because of these two dishes that I discovered this misunderstanding." Dongjun Feiyan mentioned those two dishes and swallowed his saliva.

The ministers all became curious. They had eaten sweet potato porridge before. From their voices, it was clear that these two dishes were extremely delicious, and they were all moved to try them.

"Only His Royal Highness can cook those two dishes." Ji Yanran said it intentionally, and then pointed fingers at the other two women.

"My lord, if you have tasted those two dishes, you will definitely feel a lot of emotion." Xue Nu said in a low voice.

"If you haven't tasted those two dishes in this life, it would be in vain." Dongjun Feiyan said it intentionally.

"Oh? Then Zheng'er, go cook!" King Qin Zhuangxiang entrusted, then looked at the three girls, feeling that they were all the same in appearance, hesitated for a while, and said loudly: "Zheng'er, you are now 12 years old Now, it's time to think about marriage."

"It will only take a while, and my father will help you make the decision. At first, I was only a few years older than you, and then I got married and started a business." King Qin Zhuangxiang said cautiously, thinking of his illness, he felt that this wedding was necessary.

Soon, another batch of hot and sour potato shreds and potato beef stew was distributed before the eyes of the officials.

"Great! I can probably eat these two dishes again." Ji Yanran was very happy.

"It's lucky that Wuxie has a new dish to eat today." Xue Nu said softly.

"It's really good!" Dongjun Feiyan praised.

"It turns out that the yellow ones are potatoes." King Qin Zhuangxiang guessed, carefully picked up a small piece, and smelled it, "The smell looks very good, no wonder it can arouse so many people's greed."

"It's just potatoes." Ying Zheng said calmly.

"Let's not talk about this first, what is the output of this potato?" King Qin Zhuangxiang was more concerned about state affairs.

"It's almost the same as a sweet potato." Ying Zheng replied.

"Oh?" Qin Zhuangxiang Wang Mingming didn't want to hear only this answer.

Sure enough, what Ying Zheng said next made him happy.

Only Ying Zheng said softly: "The advantages of this potato, first, it is much more delicious than sweet potatoes when combined with other vegetables. Second, it is also very important, that potatoes can be grown on the grassland planting."

"Planting on the grassland?" King Zhuangxiang of Qin turned pale with shock.

All the officials were shocked, and they all began to study in a low voice.

"The environment on the grassland is harsh, and there are not many nutrients in the soil, so there have been no crops."

"The weather on the grassland is not very colorful, which is completely contrary to the weather here."

"This potato is even more peculiar than a sweet potato. It is indeed Daqin's luck."

"That's right, these potatoes can be grown on grasslands." Ying Zheng replied.

"We have done a lot of experiments, and there should be nothing wrong. Although the yield is a little less on the grassland, it can still be grown. In addition, it can also be used as a staple food and can be used as a long-term food supply." Zhujiahui reported .

"Oh my God! I thought this potato was just delicious, but I didn't expect it to have such a terrifying effect." Dongjun Feiyan said in surprise.

"If potatoes are combined with sweet potatoes, no one will be able to stop Daqin's rise." Ji Yanran was no longer mischievous, her face was full of caution.

"Potatoes, potatoes, today I just realized how much power there is in this little potato." Xue Nu was full of emotion.

"If this is the case, if the grassland of Shuofang is occupied by Daqin, it will be equivalent to a huge granary. Even the six kingdoms of Shandong cannot compare with us." King Zhuangxiang of Qin was shocked by this result.

"Shuofang's grassland is vast, and it has been occupied by the Huns for a long time." As a native of Zhao, Xuenv was very inquisitive about the situation in Shuofang.

"This time, the Xiongnu will not be so lucky." Dongjun Feiyan seemed to have a premonition.

"In the past, the only reason why we didn't attack the Xiongnu was because even if we occupied the vast grassland, it would be useless to us. This time it is different, the grassland can be our granary." Ji Yanran said.

"Although war is inevitable, the spread of potatoes will help the nomadic people in Shuofang get rid of their original predicament, which is a good thing." The Zhu family has always been charitable.

"That's right, just like everyone here said, these potatoes are very useful. As long as you have the grassland, not only the Shuofang, but also the east, you can also take care of it." Ying Zheng said with a chuckle.

"Zheng'er is right. With this granary and the endless supply of food, we are not afraid of the six kingdoms of Shandong at all." King Qin Zhuangxiang nodded and said.

"The previous battle of Changping was due to a lack of food, which made it difficult for Qin to survive. Otherwise, the consequences of the HD battle would have been different." When Dongjun Feiyan mentioned this matter, she felt a little regretful.

"Last time, I sold dried sweet potatoes to six countries in Shandong. Although I knew I was making a profit, I still felt a bit regretful. It turned out that the prince still had potatoes as a back-up." Ji Yanran chuckled.

"The grassland in the north is so vast that the area of ​​a grassland can only be roughly calculated by adding up several countries. It is said that in the west of the grassland, there is a vast land called the Western Region." Xuenv knows a lot of anecdotes about the grassland.

"The area is huge, which means that there are many lands and many customs. In the end, it will become the powerful national power of Qin." The Zhu family was very happy.

"Let's not talk about it, the food is getting cold, and the hot and sour potato shreds are fine, but if the beef stew is cold, it will be a waste." Ying Zheng said softly.

"Yes, yes, it's better to try the taste of the food first." King Qin Zhuangxiang spoke, and the officials began to eat first.

Xuenv, who was always extremely cold, now disregarded etiquette and began to eat in big mouthfuls, saying while eating, "It's delicious, it's really delicious, it's exactly the same as last time."

"I want it too. It's really great. I didn't expect to be able to eat such delicious food again so soon." Dongjun Feiyan was very excited.

"This time, I must thank the prince well. Without him, how could I be able to eat such good food." Ji Yanran thought in her heart.

"Girl, are you thinking about something again, are you feeling hot?" Dongjun Feiyan bit Ji Yanran's ear.

"No way!" Ji Yanran was embarrassed after being discovered.

"If you don't want to eat your food, I'll eat it for you." Dongjun Feiyan quickly picked up all the food in Ji Yanran's bowl and put it into her own bowl.

"You're bullying me again." Ji Yanran stomped her feet angrily, "Your Highness, look at Fei Yan, she's always bullying me."

"Forget it! I'll give you mine!" Ying Zheng gave Ji Yanran half of his food.

"Well, how can this be done?" Ji Yanran's expression turned red.

"Forget it." Ying Zheng was very surprised.

"I want it." Dongjun Feiyan rushed to say, bit Ji Yanran's ear again, and said in a low voice: "Does this count as an indirect kiss, I snatched it away."

"Don't snatch it! This is for me." Ji Yanran puffed her cheeks.

"Fei Yan, give it to Yanran! Look how angry she is." Ying Zheng smiled wryly.

King Qin Zhuangxiang looked at the few people, very excited, but also a little bit missing, he must urge these people as soon as possible.

He took a bite of the hot and sour potato shreds, and immediately felt that his taste buds were stimulated like never before. At that moment, he couldn't help shouting: "Wow! What is this? My tongue and throat were burned by the flames. It was uncomfortable. Get up, I won’t eat this anymore.”

"This dish is really fragrant and delicious." King Qin Zhuangxiang said loudly, and started to eat again.

"Your majesty, try the beef stew with potatoes. It tastes even better." Zhu Jia suggested.

Hearing this, King Zhuangxiang of Qin tried another stewed beef with potatoes. He was so impressed that he mumbled to himself, "That's right! This potato has absorbed a lot of the smell of beef, and it melts in his mouth with a light bite. It's all beef. Taste, I have eaten beef before, but I have never eaten such a delicious beef taste, it is really delicious!"

Immediately, King Zhuangxiang of Qin swallowed it, turned his head to look at Ying Zheng, and said loudly: "You really know how to enjoy it, there are such delicious things."

Soon after the meal, everyone was full of wine and food, and they all looked at the sky, vivid in the endless aftertaste.

"These two dishes are really good. Turn around, Zheng'er will teach me how to make them. I will let the cook in the palace learn how to cook these two dishes. In this way, I can eat these two dishes every day." King Qin Zhuangxiang touched them. Touch the bulging belly.

"Baby obey!" Ying Zheng said, clasping his hands.

"I have a merciless request." The Zhu family gave a embarrassed smile and patted the back of his head.

"I know, the Zhu family definitely wants the recipes for these two dishes." Ji Yanran smiled mischievously.

"Don't you want it?" Zhu Jia asked in surprise.

"Of course you don't need it, because I live in the Prince's Mansion." Ji Yanran smiled cunningly.

"That's right, we live in the Prince's Mansion, so there is no need to worry about two dishes, or even new dishes." Dongjun Feiyan smiled happily.

"The prince will definitely agree to our request." Although Xue Nu was smiling, her eyes were sharp.

Ying Zheng was taken aback, knowing that Xue Nu was threatening him with the matter of warming the bed again.
