I am a child of Daqin Xiong, who supervises the country at the age of eight

Chapter 212
After hearing Ying Zheng's voice.

Ying Changsheng, who was beside Yingzheng, couldn't help being stunned.

He was struck by the idea of ​​winning politics.

Well, even he didn't think of this.

Or never thought about it at all.

Well, how does this coal thing ever run out?

Later generations are always clamoring about the energy crisis.

In fact, all his meow is bullshit.

How can energy be used up?
To know.

Geography textbooks always say how many years it will take for various types of coal to be used up.

But in fact it is.

Don't you still use it?

Get to the bottom of it.

It's not that these resources are not used up, but that new minerals will be discovered when they are used.

Then it ran out again.

And coal has the largest reserves in the world.

But quite huge.

An existence that will not be used up even if it is used for hundreds of years.
In this case, consider what happens after the coal is used up.

Total bullshit.

And most importantly.

Don't worry about running out of coal.

the reason is simple.

Human technology is developing, not stagnant.

Sooner or later, human beings will be able to produce new technologies.

Able to use new energy sources in such cases.

Where else do you need to worry about energy consumption?

All I heard was that Ying Changsheng turned aside, with a serious face, and said with a smile that Ying Zheng was worried that the coal would run out.

"Father's worries are superfluous. The world is so big. Father, do you know how much coal there is in the ground? It can be said that it is inexhaustible and inexhaustible. Instead of worrying about the underground coal, it is better to worry about it." The trees on the surface, after these things are used up, the land will be desertified, and it will not grow out in ten or twenty years..."

"Is it really inexhaustible, inexhaustible?"

Ying Zheng looked at Ying Changsheng with some suspicion.

"Of course it is inexhaustible!"

Ying Changsheng nodded.

Take Daqin's current consumption.

It is really inexhaustible and inexhaustible.

Then he said to Ying Zheng with a smile.

"And how vast is the world? I have run out of coal in Daqin, so why can't I go to other places to mine?"

"Father, your worry, in my son's eyes, seems a bit unfounded?"

"Just imagine, when our ancestors discovered that bronze, they never thought that the bronze would one day run out?"

"Father, it is completely unnecessary for you to think about this!"

"It is!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng was slightly startled and then reacted, he laughed and said.

"It's true that I thought too much!"

immediately.

After Ying Zheng glanced at it, the shelling machine that had been running for a short period of time had already shelled dozens of bags of millet, exposing the white rice.

Can't help but let out a sigh of emotion.

"The effect of this thing is really good, and it must be promoted in Daqin in the future!"

"Do it slowly!"

After Ying Changsheng heard what Ying Zheng said, he said with a smile.

The promotion of steam engines is indeed very necessary, but there is a premise that the promotion must be qualified technology.

At this time, I only heard Ying Changsheng say to Ying Zheng.

"Father, I don't know. This steam engine has just been made. Is this the one now? It should be left here to run day and night, and then handed over to the craftsmen for inspection to see if there are any problems. If there are any, Find a way to solve it, improve it by the way, increase its power, save some coal, and allow it to run for a long time, so that it can be promoted when the technology matures..."

"There is some truth to this!"

After listening to what Ying Changsheng said, Ying Zheng couldn't help but nodded, and then said.

"Then do as you say!"

Just when Yingzheng quit the practice of the steam engine, and was about to go back to continue handling government affairs.

Suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps.

Only one guard was seen, with a panic look on his face, and he reported to Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty, something big has happened. There is a plague of locusts in Guanzhong!"

Locust plague.

In ancient history, locust plagues were still very common, that is, locusts ravaged and caused disasters.

Many people have never seen locusts before, after all, they are very rare in later generations.

But there is another species in the yellow species that you may have seen, and that is the grasshopper.

In the eyes of later generations, locusts are a common delicacy on skewers.

The crunchy taste that can be eaten.

Some people even breed locusts specifically for the purpose of selling them.

But the problem is.

In the current era, locusts are an out-and-out natural disaster, enough to scare everyone.

Now go directly to Yingzheng, after the rumored locust plague.

His face suddenly changed in an instant.

You must know that once locusts are swept into a disaster, they will leave nothing behind.

All the green plants will be eaten by him, the crops in the fields, the leaves in the woods, and the weeds in the ground.

They will be eaten up by these things.

And after they ate it all.

There is nothing left.

just means.

The harvest of the year was completely gone.

Under such circumstances, in the agricultural era, it was a matter of killing people. Only seeing Ying Zheng's solemn face, he said to the guards on the side.

"Where are the ministers now?"

"Your Majesty, the ministers have arrived near Zhangtai Palace and are waiting!"

The guard on the side replied immediately.

Yingzheng walked out in a hurry, intending to discuss with the ministers how to deal with the locust plague.

Of course, it is to discuss how to deal with the locust plague.

In fact, Yingzheng intends to discuss with the ministers how to alleviate the disaster after the locust plague.

How to provide relief to the victims.

Well, any locust plague that broke out before the Qin Empire from ancient times to the present.

Human beings are a helpless group of people.

They are unable to fight against these locusts. Under such circumstances, Yingzheng does not feel that he has any way to deal with the locusts.

He only planned to rush to the main hall to discuss how to rescue the disaster.

After all, after the locusts passed, it was bound to be a catastrophe.

At that time, the Qin court will still need to find ways to relieve the victims.

Just when Yingzheng was thinking about going to disaster relief.

Ying Changsheng on the side laughed out loud.

"Father, aren't we just locusts? What's there to be afraid of? Why don't we just eat them all?"

Yes, locusts are so delicious.

After deep frying, they are crunchy and crispy, one for each leg.

Moreover, the protein content of this thing is very high, several times that of beef.

Eating this thing is better than eating beef.

At this moment, Ying Zheng looked constipated looking at Ying Changsheng who said he was eating locusts with a smile on his face.

"What did you just say? Eating locusts?"

"Yes, eat locusts!"

Ying Changsheng nodded, and he said to Ying Zheng.

"Of course locusts are edible, and besides eating locusts, I have many ways to deal with them!"

"Is it a mere locust plague? In my opinion, it's not a problem at all!"
