I tried my best to help Zulong, and finally got my wife

"If it doesn't work, it's another five-nation alliance attacking Qin!"

Zhang He smiled: "Your Majesty can invite the five countries to share the city of South Korea, and I, Da Qin, will send troops to attack, and the other five countries can sit back and enjoy the success."

"In the face of absolute interests, people always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."

"As for attacking Zhao, I have two sharp weapons to offer."

Chapter 13 Epoch-making Product - Quyuanli

In the face of absolute strength, people always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Ying Zheng took Zhang He's words seriously.

The ancestors of the Qin State adhered to the rule of law, because only the law can restrain people's characteristic of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

Moreover, the conferment of military merits by the Great Qin really took advantage of this characteristic of human beings.

Daqin attacked South Korea, and then the five countries shared the territory of South Korea. The nobles of the five countries may really agree with this approach, as the saying goes.

But what made Yingzheng even more concerned was that Zhang He actually said that he would offer two sharp weapons to attack Zhao Guo, which made Yingzheng very curious.

"Zhang Qing, what kind of sharp weapon can let the few people watch it?"

Zhang He took out a parchment scroll from his sleeve, which was the picture of Quyuanli rewarded by the system.

"That's natural, please see, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Gao, who was waiting next to him, hurriedly took small steps, and quickly came to Zhang He's side, took the sheepskin scroll, and bowed and handed it to Ying Zheng.

All the ministers looked at Ying Zheng curiously, what exactly did Zhang He offer?

Ying Zheng opened the parchment scroll, looked at the picture drawn on it, frowned first, and then immediately thought of the long shaft plow used by farmers to plow the land, which seemed to be very similar to the picture drawn on it.

However, the long curved plow is not the main tool. Those who can use cattle are rich families. Poor families can only use Leisi (leisi) issued by the government, which is the same as the shovel and shovel used today.

When Yingzheng was a child, he followed his parents as hostages in the State of Zhao. He also went to the land with his grandfather, and he often saw Chang Yuanli. Since the reform of Shangyang in Qin State, he emphasized agriculture and suppressed business, so Yingzheng paid great attention to farm tools.

"Is this a tool for plowing the land?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhang He and asked.

"My lord Huiyan, this thing is called Quyuanli. It only needs one man and one ox. It is easy to plow the land, saving time and effort. It no longer needs three oxen and two husbands. It is a waste of both oxen and people."

"Really?"

Yingzheng stood up excitedly. If this were the case, he could cultivate three acres of land instead of one acre before.

No matter what era, advanced production tools can promote the progress of productivity, let alone the period of victory in the farming era.

"I don't dare to bully the king. If the king doesn't believe it, he can ask the craftsmen of the Mohist family to come out and have a look. They can make one and test it on the spot."

"Where is Xianglijia, why don't you come up and see for the widow?"

Xianglijia is a representative of the Mohists who served Qin. His ancestor was Xiangliqin, who made great contributions to the renewal of Qin's weapons.

The large weapons used on the battlefield were all researched by the Mo family led by Xiang Lijia.

For mechanical tools, it is Daqin's experts.

Xianglijia was also very curious just now, what Zhang He, whom Ying Zheng had always favored, offered, but he didn't expect it to be a blueprint of tools for farming, so he lost interest immediately.

Their Mo family is the best expert in tools and equipment. You are a young boy, what tools and equipment do you know?

It's just grandstanding!

But Qin Wang Yingzheng asked him to watch it, so he had to watch it.

Xianglijia reluctantly went to Yingzheng, and Zhao Gao took it from Yingzheng to Xianglijia.

Xianglijia glanced at it, was about to look back, and then said to Ying Zheng, what the hell?

As a result, those eyes seemed to have magical powers, and they couldn't be taken back.

Xianglijia grabbed the parchment and immediately entered the state of a craftsman, studying it carefully.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

"Why didn't XX think of this, why didn't XX think of this? XX is ashamed of the ancestors of the Mohist family..."

Xianglijia was holding the parchment, and went crazy, crying and laughing, lamenting that he was ashamed of the ancestors of the Mohist family.

Ying Zheng frowned, and immediately reprimanded: "Xiang Lijia, why are you crazy? Tell me this is exactly what Zhang Qing said."

Only then did Xianglijia wake up, and quickly bowed to apologize.

Then he looked at Zhang He, cupped his fists and bowed deeply, expressing his disrespect just now.

"My lord, once this thing is spread, everyone in Daqin will have land to plant and everyone will have food to eat. Qinchuan, which is eight hundred miles away, will become a big granary, and Bashu will become a place of abundance..."

"This is an epoch-making invention in the history of farming. Zuo Shu's long-term achievements are in the present, and the benefits will be in the future. You should be included in the history books."

Ying Zheng was dumbfounded, is this thing really that powerful?

However, Xianglijia is an expert in this field. He is usually stable and doesn't praise others easily. He should be very powerful.

Yingzheng was overjoyed. With this thing, it is only a matter of time before our Great Qin dominates the country, and the widow will become No. 1 in the ages.

"Zhang Qing, reward!"

Zhang He stepped forward, bowed and said: "Thank you for the reward, but I still have a sharp weapon!"

Chapter 14 Potato shreds, Ying Zheng agrees to eat them

Ying Zheng was excited again, and walked directly from the throne, came to Zhang He's side, patted Zhang He's shoulder, and said with a smile: "You are indeed the lucky star of the widow."

"The second thing, it's called potatoes, and it's a crop with an yield of about [-] shi per mu. Once this crop is popularized in Daqin, everyone will have food to eat, and no one will starve to death again."

"The most important thing is that this thing can be stored for more than half a year..."

(one stone is equal to 120 catties)

Ying Zheng: "..."

Ministers: "..."

Everyone was dumbfounded, looking at Zhang He as if seeing a ghost, mainly because what Zhang He said was too mysterious, there is no crop that can produce fifty shi per mu, since ancient times, there has been no such thing!

Do you really fucking think everyone is a fool?

In the late Warring States period, the agricultural cultivation technology was already very mature, and the yield of five grains (millet, millet, wheat, bean, and rice) was only about 2 shi per mu.

Yao Jia was in a hurry, bowed quickly and said, "Your Majesty, for the sake of Zhang He's great achievements, please forgive his sins!"

Dunwei was also surprised, and hurriedly said: "Please forgive Zhang He's crimes, Zhang He is in a daze."

Because Zhang He rejected his invitation, Xiong Qi kicked him out of the Zhang residence. He was angry and exploded on the spot, scolding: "Zhang He, you are deceiving the emperor. You are doing everything for the sake of credit. Are you all fools?"

Wang Wan also narrowed her eyes, and said flatly, "Your Majesty, this is impossible. The best land near Xianyang has an yield of only 3 shi per mu. Fifty shi is too alarmist."

Ying Zheng didn't say a word, and he didn't believe what Zhang He said. Fifty stones is too exaggerated!

But since Zhang He came to the Qin Kingdom, he has turned the impossible into possible, and asked him to scold Han Wangan. As a result, he captured Nanyang City of his family, and he also donated [-] troops as a gift.

And that Qu Yuanli just now was really a miracle.

"Zhang Qing, where is this thing, so that everyone can watch it?"

Zhang He knew that this group of bumpkins had never seen the world, so he ignored them, and said with a smile: "At the servant's house, I will let someone bring it here."

Ying Zheng said: "Zhao Gao, you go!"

Zhao Gao immediately turned around and ran, his speed was like a gust of wind.

Zhang He stood out from the crowd, with an indifferent face, but he was a little scared by everyone's eyes.

After a while, Zhao Gao came back and brought back 100 potatoes that Zhang He had placed in the bedroom.

Ying Zheng watched the potatoes. They were round, smooth and tender, but could they really be eaten?

"Your Majesty, this is a potato. He can cook it in many ways. You can eat it roasted, boiled, or fried..."

"If your majesty wants to try something new, but your ministers are not talented, I would like to cook a dish for you."

Ying Zheng took a deep breath, picked up one, and looked at it for a long time before he made up his mind and said, "Okay, today I will eat one auspicious."

Zhang He immediately rolled up his sleeves, and was taken by Zhao Gao to the imperial kitchen, where he made a dish of vinegared potato shreds!

Originally, I wanted to do a few more things, but in the end, Yingzheng refused to let him live or die, and ordered Lang Zhongling to take care of him as a treasure. Anyone who dares to approach will be killed without mercy!

Everyone in Zhangtai Palace is waiting for this historic moment.

Zhang He came to the main hall with a bronze tripod, first tasted it himself, and personally tested the poison for the king.

The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs saw that Zhang He had already eaten, so he didn't say anything more.

Ying Zheng directly picked up the potato shreds and fed them into his mouth. He was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help closing his eyes, slowly savoring the taste of the potato shreds.

The entrance is smooth, no peculiar smell, and it has been processed, which is more appetizing than the current five grains.

"Delicious!"

"Everyone come and taste it too!"

Civil and military ministers look at me, I look at you, Yao Jia took the first step, grabbed the potato shreds and fed them into his mouth before Xiong Qi and Wang Wan.

"Delicious, sweet and sour, smooth in the mouth, this thing is really the auspiciousness of my Daqin."

So, everyone stepped forward, one person at a time, and they were full of praise immediately, while the people in the back immediately lost their blessings and became furious.

But Ying Zheng still couldn't believe it. How could such a good thing yield fifty shi per mu?

"Zhang Qing, tell me the truth, is this thing really worth fifty stones per mu?"

Zhang He was speechless, turned his head, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is a divine object. When I was about to starve to death in Korea, I met an old fairy with a white beard, and he gave it to me."

"At the beginning, the white-bearded old fairy said that the yield of this product was fifty shi per mu. Originally, the subordinates wanted to eat it all. But thinking that the people in the world were starving, how could the subordinates abandon the people and ignore them, so they hid it, stunned. I was starving myself, and I was not willing to eat one."

"I think, if you use it as a seed and multiply it, everyone will have something to eat."

Ying Zheng was very moved. In order to let this fetish survive, Zhang Qing almost starved herself to death. How many people are there in this world with such qualities?

"Zhang Qing, on behalf of the people of the world, thank you!"

Zhang He was taken aback, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to be like this. I also care about the world. It's a certain ideal to feed everyone in the world."

With the backing of Grandpa Immortal, including Ying Zheng, no one dared to doubt Zhang He anymore.

What's more, the facts are right in front of you, so there's nothing to doubt about it.

What's more, Zhang He doesn't need to lie. When it is planted next year, after the autumn queen, wouldn't Zhang He slap himself in the face?

Bullying the king is a serious crime of beheading, and if it is not done well, it may even be a barbarian.

Yingzheng got two sharp weapons, walked with the wind, came to the throne, sat down, and said with a smile: "Zhang Qing, you have made great contributions to the Great Qin State, and you have been promoted to five ranks. Reward fertile land, gold, silver and cloth..."

Ying Zheng was happy, and Zhang He was also happy. He didn't expect that his title had already reached the fifteenth level, and the Qin Dynasty had a total of twenty levels. If he made a few more things, wouldn't he be a marquis?

It's just that everyone present looked at Zhang He, and they were astonished. This guy was promoted too quickly. In just a few days, he went from a commoner to a Shangqing. The most enviable thing is that Zhang He actually He was worshiped as guest minister by Ying Zheng.

This is the only one since Qin Wang Yingzheng took office!

His status is comparable to that of a prime minister. Whenever Ying Zheng hesitates to make any decision, he can ask Zhang He for a decision.

"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty, I will continue to work hard..."

Everyone: Why, do you want to make persistent efforts?No matter how hard you try, you will be named Marquis.

Zhang He glanced at everyone, and then returned to the previous topic.

"Your Majesty, although the two items presented by you are extremely precious, they are important in the long run. I think it's too early to attack Zhao's strategic goal first. Instead of going head-to-head with Zhao, it's better to take South Korea first. Zhao Guo."

Ying Zheng looked at the ministers and asked, "What do you think?"

Yao Jia was the first to say: "This minister seconded Zhang Shangqing's proposal."

Dun Ruo also said: "The minister seconded the proposal."

Wang Wan glanced at Zhang He, bowed and said, "I think Zhang Shaoshang's words are justified."

Xiong Qi was very anxious, originally he wanted to sing against Zhang He, but now he saw that all the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty supported Zhang He.

Looking at Ying Zheng again, with his eager attitude, he probably wanted to take Han land first, and then Zhao country.

What's more, he is still the Prime Minister of Great Qin. This matter is only beneficial to Qin.

Taking a deep breath, he said, "Your Majesty, I agree!"
