Siheyuan: I decide the fate of the world with my medical skills

After planting one acre of seeds for the village, Mr. Li gently shook off the dirt on his body and walked out of the field.

Fusu witnessed this scene and believed that what the village chief said was true.

The biggest difference between humans and animals is that the former can create and continuously improve tools.

Productivity increases little by little.

Thanks to his insistence, many areas south of the Yellow River are now planting winter wheat.

As for other regions, they are not within the scope of attention for the time being.

With the use of curved plows, wooden hoes and organic fertilizers, the land's current energy reserves are expected to increase production by 30% by next year's harvest season, which is conservative.

"One wheat and one bean", by this time next year, it will no longer be a burden to support a farmer's family of five!

Before leaving, Fusu looked at the man named Ji Bu, who was separated by the Iron Eagle Cavalry, and asked casually, "Old uncle, is he your youngest son?"

The village chief waved his hand and corrected him, "Sir, you must have made a mistake. I have two sons and five daughters. Ji Bu is my nephew from Yue's family. He is from Xiaxiang County, Si Shui County, and is currently a soldier selected to serve as a talent officer in Xianyang." He also emphasized that it was just a temporary boarding.

Hearing about Xiaxiang County and a man named Caishi, Fusu was sure that this was Ji Bu, who was known as "a promise is worth a thousand pounds". He twirled his beard slightly, and a profound insight emerged in his heart like Emperor Taizong of Tang: All the talented people in the world have become birds in my cage!

If these destabilizing factors can be eliminated locally, even if a rebellion similar to that of "Chen Sheng and Wu Guang" does occur, the entire situation should not get too out of control.

After a short while, Fusu joined a force of two thousand cavalrymen led by General Yang Xi of the Imperial Chariot Department near the Chidao Road, and headed for the Wen Tang Palace first.

...

In Panyu County, Nanhai County,

Li Shang led more than ten Yue warriors into the residence of Prince Ying. "Where did the young master go?" He looked at the Qin women who were cleaning the floor and asked. One of them stuck out her chin and responded clumsily in the Qin language: "The young master and several noble leaders went out to catch sea fish!" Catching sea fish... I work hard, but that boy is so relaxed! Li Shang's lips twitched slightly, turned around, and led the way out of this place. After a few days of hard work, he has recruited nearly a thousand warriors from multiple Yue ethnic groups in the surrounding area, and the next task is to make them master the Qin dialect as soon as possible. Otherwise, a simple order actually requires two or three people to fully translate it.

Intensify the training so that this group of people can quickly reach the level of a qualified Qin soldier.

Of course, the number of people is still far from the goal set by Li Si.

However, this is the maximum value that can be achieved under the current conditions. As it is said, "language barrier is the biggest challenge!"

Moreover, in private conversations, Ying Zheng told him that many of the soldiers who followed them out of Xianyang chose to establish their household registration in Nanyue County and no longer returned to Guanzhong.

The reason is that crops can be grown twice a year in Nanyue County, providing more food sources.

Secondly, with the help of the Qin people's status, even the most basic soldiers could enjoy rights such as "a hero can marry nine wives"!

When Li Shang walked out of the courtyard slowly, Li Si suddenly heard a familiar voice in his ears, full of concern:

"Where is Li Cheng going?"

In a blink of an eye, among a group of Baiyue chieftains dressed in animal furs and wearing traditional hats that symbolized the image of Qin officials, Li Si saw a figure walking with a bamboo basket in his hand. That was the leading character.

Etiquette is in order, so he respectfully replied, "Your Excellency, you are in such a good mood!"

Li Si took the bamboo basket from the waiter and asked the waiter the reason for his visit.

The answer was simple and clear: "Have you heard that Longchuan Governor Zhao Tuo has received an imperial edict to serve as the governor of Zhuang County?"

After receiving a positive answer, Li Si continued to ask: "A few days ago, I proposed to move 1,000 Qin residents from Longchuan to Panyu to teach the Yue people farming, but once Zhao Tuo left, this matter might be delayed because there was no one to take over."

Li Si was worried about this situation. Ying Zheng smiled and understood, saying humorously: "It turns out that while Li Si was intoxicated by the beauty of the south, he was still worried about the state affairs."

Before Li Si finished his defense, he immediately explained: "Please rest assured, I have arranged for someone to be in charge of the connection with the Yue warriors you requested to recruit from Zhao Tuo."

In response to the respectful expression of admiration, Li Si replied: "Sir, you have the quality of foresight, and Li Si sincerely respects this."

At this time, Li Si added: "By the way, my lord, the people sent by your majesty to Xiou to collect rice seeds have now returned."

Li Si's surprised reaction showed his thoughts, and then he seemed to understand: "Is that the Champa rice that your Majesty often mentioned? Then please take me to check it out immediately."

Not long after, the two arrived at Panyu Port and met Ren Xiong who was waiting there to greet them.

After looking around the port, Ziying asked directly: "Where did the newly harvested rice seeds go?"

"The cargo is being unloaded onto the shore." Ren Xiao replied and pointed to the cargo ship at the dock.

To be on the safe side, the people sent out not only reached an agreement with the people of Xiou and exchanged seeds, but also obtained additional quantities of various rice seeds while passing through the Luoyue area.

The total number reached thirteen and twelve kinds.

In addition to these, another batch of 5,000-year-old slaves from the Luoyue area prepared for Ziying are also on their way back and will soon return.

Ziying nodded and agreed: "Keep half of the rice seeds for the Qin farmers from Longchuan to test plant, and send the remaining half to Xianyang."

Ren Xiong was about to say something, but Ziying suddenly changed his mind: "Let's not transport the crops to Xianyang for now. Let's all start sowing in Panyu County!"

"The climate in the South China Sea is so hot that I almost forgot that it is already late autumn in Xianyang. Even if the rice seeds are delivered, the emperor will have to wait until the spring of the following year to plant them!"

Ren Xiong clapped his hands and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking. Although this is a climate with many poisonous insects and miasma, the cultivated land can produce two crops a year or even three crops in one or three years. We sow seeds here and it won't be too late to send them to Xianyang after the harvest."

He added: "The cotton mentioned above has also been found in a village on the southern border of the Southern Luoyue Land. The locals knew nothing about the use of this item, so the number of seeds was not large."

Ziying looked at the cotton seeds presented to him, with a questioning look in his eyes: "How should I sow these?"

Ren Xiong explained: "Don't worry. After consulting some officials, I learned that it is not only the Luoyue who grow cotton. Some people in Nanyue also grow it. They don't know the technology of weaving silk, so they know very little about this matter..."

Before he could finish his words, Ziying nodded and was about to speak when a loud roar was heard outside.

It turned out that a giant crocodile more than two meters long jumped out from the bottom of the river and attacked a Vietnamese girl who was drawing fresh water from the river.

Li Shang saw that the situation was critical and rushed forward with a spear to rescue. After a while, he succeeded in killing the crocodile. However, the girl from Yue might have one hand injured.

Ren Xiong sighed and said, "The South China Sea is full of miasma, and giant crocodiles also constitute a major obstacle to the development of the South China Sea land!"

Then, Ziying spoke with full energy: "In this case, give the order to kill a big crocodile and reward a thousand coins!"

After he finished speaking, Ren Xiong continued: "You should know that the meat of this crocodile is rich in nutrients, it can benefit the heart and throat, nourish the blood and strengthen the bones, nourish the liver and kidneys, and strengthen the bones..."

When talking about "tonifying the kidney and strengthening the sperm", the smile on Ren Xiao's face became even more intense, revealing an expression that said "everyone understands this principle".

Human joy and sorrow do not seem to be connected at this time.

A few days later, reports on measures to control crocodiles in the South China Sea arrived in Xianyang.

In the Hot Spring Palace, Fusu wrote "OK" on the memorial and then was in a daze for a while.

The Champa rice problem had been solved. In the next few years, people from the south along the Yangtze River would gradually begin a large-scale migration.

The memorial mentioned a saltwater crocodile about three meters long, a giant beast that harassed humans from under the water; it was not a Malayan crocodile or a Chinese alligator. Because they had narrow mouths, they mostly ate fish and small crabs, while the latter two types of crocodiles were too small in size. At that time, people were rough and children were strong in fighting. The Chinese alligator, which was about one meter long, harassed people purely to provide food...

To nourish the kidney and strengthen the essence, that is the end of it... Fusu closed the memorial, stretched his body, looked out the window, and found that the sky was full of stars.

This time is roughly equivalent to eight o'clock in the evening, and under the Qin time system, it is called "cattle and sheep entering the night."

The name is self-explanatory. As the sky begins to darken, the birds return to their nests, and the cattle and sheep roaming in the wild are about to return to their pens to rest.

Now, Zhao Gao's memorial is the last document of the day. Therefore, unless there are no unexpected events, today's work can be officially over...

Fusu was filled with emotion and was about to arrange for the waiter to serve the food when he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.

He took a deep breath and sensed that the breath came from Tian Ji who was close to him.

But this fragrance seems to be the scent of sandalwood, rather than the scent of ordinary women's cosmetics, right?

Could it be that someone is burning incense in my palace... or is the smell not coming from the incense burner...? He thought for a while, with a puzzled look on his face.

Perhaps because she noticed Fusu's gaze, Tian Ji temporarily put down the embroidery needle and thread in her hand. Her eyes were as clear as a spring, and she looked at Fusu with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like that?"

Her eyes and voice were full of the shyness of a young girl: "Your Majesty... I'm hungry, I really want to eat the meal below your Majesty..."

Fusu raised the corners of his lips, looked at Tian Ji's moist and tender red lips and said, "Well~ Let's satisfy our appetite first, then it's time for your meal..."

The sound of "Hmm~" was light and full of girlish liveliness, as if responding to this tenderness.

After spending a few days together, Tian Ji's personality gradually tended to be more modern and feminine. Fusu looked forward to the day in the future when he might see Tian Ji wearing slim jeans and posing in various styles.
