Chapter 153 Such a good thing, of course I have to try it
Listen to Qin Wenyao's words.
Zhongshu ordered Tao Xing, Monk Shu and Zuopu to shoot Ouyang Zong, and they all had big heads.
They really convinced Qin Wenyao.
Stealing the position of Shangshu’s right servant?
Is this something that can be brought up in this situation?
But Qin Wenyao doesn't care what he can say or what he can't say. Anyway, he is righteous and not afraid of anything. He is not even afraid of beheading, so what else can he be afraid of?
Bai Jiangheng and Qin Wenyao are still arguing.
Emperor Wei roared angrily, "Okay! Stop arguing, you two! What's the point of arguing every day over this nonsense!? If you are really capable, you can solve the salt issue for me before the end of the year!"
Hear this.
Qin Wenyao and Bai Jiangheng both snorted coldly and said nothing.
Emperor Wei was too lazy to pay attention to them and turned towards the East Palace. If the land had not been cultivated much, he would have to hang Xiao Nan up and beat him.
Is it okay if you don’t take my words seriously?
Qin Wenyao and others hurriedly followed the footsteps of Emperor Wei.
Not long after.
Emperor Wei and others then came to the cultivated land next to the Yinghua Hall in the East Palace.
The soil on the stone slabs next to the farmland has been swept away.
A dilapidated long straight plow was thrown aside, and an old ox was grazing not far away.
The other end was pulling a new plow and standing in the field eating grass.
About 40% of the farmland aside has been plowed.
Although the plowed one is still not that pretty, it is much better than the dog-gnawed one.
"Hiss~"
Emperor Wei smoothed his beard and frowned slightly, "When I came yesterday, the land was plowed and less than 10% of it was plowed. How much has been plowed today? This method is not like the prince's plowing...
....”
Emperor Wei's first thought was that Xiao Nan would find someone to plow the land for him.
But Xiao Nan usually didn't dare to lie to him.
Over the years, Xiao Nan has indeed made many mistakes, but he still doesn't dare to fool him like this.
Qin Wenyao, Tao Xing and others also looked at this land.
They had heard about the fact that Emperor Wei punished Xiao Nan for farming.
They felt that this was a good thing and they should temper the prince's temperament.
"Someone is coming!"
Emperor Wei shouted at the top of his lungs.
Immediately afterwards.
Deng Bao, the eunuch who was serving in the East Palace, ran over in a hurry, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I am here."
Emperor Wei pointed at the cultivated land and said in a deep voice: "Let me ask you, is this land cultivated by the prince alone today? Is there anyone who can help him?"
Deng Bao hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is indeed the one who plowed the land this afternoon."
Emperor Wei's eyes darkened and he said in a deep voice: "What you did this afternoon? That's nonsense! If you lie to me, I will chop off your head!"
Deng Bao was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He knelt down on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, what I said is true. How dare I deceive Your Majesty? This afternoon, the young prince sent His Majesty a new plow."
.”
"This new plow is very easy to use, and it is also a plow pulled by an ox. Your Highness used this new plow to plow the land, so it is so fast."
Emperor Wei's frown deepened, and he lowered his eyes and said, "Nonsense! How can a plow pulled by one ox be more efficient than a plow pulled by two oxen? Aren't you talking nonsense?"
Deng Bao hurriedly pointed to the plow not far away and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the plow is right there. You can tell by looking at it. The young prince said that it is called the Quyuan plow and that he personally built it for His Royal Highness."
After hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Quyuanli?
Made by Qin Yu?
this......
What's going on?
Is the young prince Goulan also a good farmer?
"Wen Yao, what's going on? When will Qin Yu start farming again? Did he make this plow himself?"
Emperor Wei turned to look at Qin Wenyao with a puzzled look on his face.
"Hiss~"
Qin Wenyao was also puzzled, "This... this shouldn't be the case. We have never heard of when this bastard learned farm work or built a curved shaft plow. He is probably talking nonsense."
Emperor Wei frowned and said nothing, but walked straight towards Quyuli.
The old scalper lowered his head to eat the grass and ignored them.
Emperor Wei studied Qu Yuan Li carefully.
Although he is not very knowledgeable about plowing, he is not unfamiliar with it either.
There is indeed a big difference between a curved shaft plow and a long straight plow.
He looked at the plow and then at the land that was 40% plowed.
If this matter was done by others, Emperor Wei would not care.
But this matter was related to Qin Yu, so Emperor Wei had to think more about it.
During this period, Qin Yu gave him quite a surprise.
He felt that this might not be true.
If Quyuanli is really as good as Deng Bao says, I will make a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Emperor Wei began to sit on the ground and take off his boots.
Seeing this scene, Bai Jiangheng and Tao Xing all looked confused.
"Your Majesty, you don't want to try Qu Yuanli yourself, do you?"
Qin Wenyao looked at Emperor Wei and frowned slightly.
Emperor Wei nodded, with a serious face, "Yes, such a good thing, of course I have to give it a try."
As he spoke, he turned to look at a few people and said seriously: "It only takes one cow to plow. Do you know what this means? This means an agricultural revolution."
"Those who can afford cattle for farming are rich farmers. Most people cannot afford cattle at home. All they can use are their own shoulders."
"Even a long straight plow requires two oxen. You can imagine how hard it is for the people to cultivate the land. If the curved plow is as good as Deng Bao said, it means that with the same labor force, the people can cultivate more cultivated land.
, that means increased food production!”
The more Emperor Wei talked, the more excited he became.
Food is always an inescapable topic in this era.
Qin Wenyao frowned slightly, "Your Majesty, if it were anything else, I wouldn't say anything about it, but Wei Chen still feels a little unreliable about Qin Yu's construction of the plow."
Bai Jiangheng snorted coldly and echoed: "Master Qin, you are self-aware. Can Qin Yu create such a magical plow? He is just a little prince with a hook, ha~"
"Hiss~"
Qin Wenyao glared at Bai Jiangheng and said in a deep voice: "Are you sick? What does a certain family's discussion with Your Majesty about my son Qin Yu have to do with you!? There is no need for you to be sarcastic here!?
"
"What if the plow is really made by Qin Yu? What if this plow is indeed better than a long straight plow? Wouldn't you be slapped in the face? Are you embarrassed?"
"You..." Bai Jiangheng looked gloomy, but he didn't refute.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Qin Yu was indeed talented despite his debauchery.
If this was true, he would be really embarrassed.
Therefore, Bai Jiangheng said no more.
Emperor Wei ignored them, directly supported the Qu Yuan Li, and drove up the old cow that was eating fodder.
He was the emperor on horseback. When he led his troops to farm, he also took the lead in doing farm work, so it was not difficult for him to cultivate the land.
Immediately afterwards.
The old oxen pulled the plow, and the Emperor of Wei was holding the curved shaft plow behind to drive the oxen.
After plowing for a while.
Emperor Wei raised his eyebrows with joy, grinned widely, turned to look at the people, and said excitedly: "Hahaha! I really found a treasure for me! This kid Qin Yu is really amazing!!!"
"This curved shaft plow is actually lighter and more flexible than the long straight plow, and it can plow the ground more efficiently!"
