Xia Wuqiu didn't stay long in Zheng's country, after inquiring about the situation, he went back to pack his bags.

The next day, before dawn, Xia Wuqiu heard the servant's summons, took advantage of the darkness, and rushed to Jingshui under the leadership of Meng Yi.

Not long after, Ying Zheng also held a routine court meeting.

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty, Your Majesty will last forever, and Great Qin will last forever!"

"My dear dears, the spring plowing is about to start. Do you have anything to report to the widow recently?"

As soon as Yingzheng's voice fell, Qin Teng, the governor of the capital, stood up.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce!"

"speak!"

"Your Majesty, you have established so many factories some time ago. The factories are extremely efficient and have solved the survival problems of a large number of unemployed Qianshou. I will also follow suit because of this, if my Daqin and Guizhou capital stopped farming, wouldn’t it mean that the country will perish?”

Although what Qin Teng said was a bit exaggerated, some of it was indeed true, which was why ancient monarchs always looked down on merchants.

It is nothing more than four words, nothing to do with production!

"Do you have any questions about other lovers?"

Ying Zheng didn't answer Qin Teng directly, but motioned him to go back and sit down first, then turned to ask others.

"Your Majesty, the question raised by Mr. Neishi is exactly the most tense question when I am in the spring of the Qin Dynasty. I suggest that the factory be temporarily closed, and then consider whether to reopen it after the autumn harvest!"

Feng Quji and Wang Wan looked at each other, and both stood up to stand for Qin Teng.

The production is too big, even if the factory is shut down, they may all be affected to some extent, but spring plowing is the root, and naturally no one will object.

"Well, I will tell you my opinion."

Ying Zheng cleared his throat.

"Everyone who loves you has fallen into a misunderstanding. Who said that spring plowing must not be carried out at the same time as opening a factory? There are so many families in my Daqin, can each family only have one labor force? Even if there are relatively few young and middle-aged people, the family members Aren't the women, children, children, and old people still there? Could it be that spring plowing can't be entrusted to them?"

"Your Majesty, you are joking. Farming is complicated and heavy. It is an ordinary young man who is tired to death after a day's work. How can women, children, children and old people do it? I am afraid they can't even pull the plow for plowing the land." move."

As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, he was refuted by his courtiers.

"The widow has a method here, which can greatly reduce the burden of farming. Even a child in his teens can easily complete a day's farm work!"

"any solution?"

"Naturally, it is necessary to improve the farm tools, abandon the heavy and complicated farm tools in the past, and replace them all with the latest lightweight farm tools, and dig canals, install wind-powered water trucks, and realize fully automatic irrigation!"

Ying Zheng said in high spirits, but the courtiers in the audience were dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, I'm so stupid, what did you just say? Why haven't we heard of it?"

"Of course you haven't heard of it, because these are the latest farming methods. Not only is the efficiency increased several times compared to before, but it can even greatly liberate manpower. This year's spring farming, I will not only encourage production, but even expand the scale , Let my Daqin's grain production rise to another level!"

"is it possible?"

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, many people felt a little suspicious.

"Hmph, a bunch of ignorant bumpkins, you may have heard of Quyuanli? Do you know what automatic irrigation is? Do you know how to make natural fertilizer?"

Relying on a few new words he heard from Zhao Che, Ying Zheng showed off his sense of superiority in front of all his courtiers.

"The Quyuan plow is a new type of plow invented by Zhao Che. Compared with our traditional plow, it is very labor-saving. You don't even need to use oxen, and you can easily plow the land by manpower. It has been tested in Nanjun, and you can rest assured of the results."

"There is also this automatic irrigation, which is even more powerful. Relying on the effect of wind-powered waterwheels, as long as the canals are built in advance, there is no need for people to carry water for irrigation. Wherever the land needs irrigation, just release the sluice. Let the water flow to irrigate automatically, no effort at all from beginning to end!"

"Finally, it's farm fertilizer. Do you guys still remember the public toilet built by the widow in Xianyang? The filth excreted by people, after special treatment, is the best farm manure!"

After listening to Ying Zheng's explanation, all the courtiers were speechless. Besides being shocked, most of them didn't believe it.

"Your Majesty, what you said is too mysterious. Not to mention the Quyuanli, just talk about automatic irrigation, and the water will not listen to people's words. How could it be possible to automatically help the heads of Guizhou irrigate the fields?"

"Your Majesty, have you been deceived by someone!"

There was a lot of doubts in the audience, and no one wanted to believe Ying Zheng. After all, hearing is believing, seeing is believing, and they have never seen something with their own eyes. How could they change the cultivation that has been passed down for thousands of years just because of these few words? Way.
