The Fruit of Surgery

"Thank you, Master Imperial Master. If the Imperial Master has any instructions in the future, the Gongshu Family will do their best." After roughly looking at the contents of the book, Gongshu Chou bowed respectfully to Shen Fei.

As a family of mechanical arts, Gongshu Chou knew too well how important the steelmaking method in the book was to the Gongshu Family. It was not only important to the Gongshu Family, but also to the Qin State.

It can be said that once the mass production of steel is completed, the military strength of the Qin Dynasty will increase by at least 30%. This is just a conservative figure. Take the Gongshu Family for example. The production of the so-called indestructible Po Tu San Lang in its domineering mechanical arts is limited because the production of fine steel is scarce.

Once fine steel can be mass-produced, believe it or not, the Gongshu Family can build a Po Tu San Lang mechanical beast team. At that time, it will be absolutely invincible in attacking cities and strongholds.

"Since Mr. Gongshu said so, I won't be polite. I hope Mr. Gongshu can send a group of people who are proficient in mechanical arts to help me. I have some things to do. By the way, I don't want those who are proficient in domineering mechanical arts." Shen Fei nodded gently to Gongshu Chou's words, and then stated his request.

"I will obey the order of the state master."

"This matter is not very urgent. At this stage, you should do the things in front of you. By the way, this formula is top secret. It's best not to leak it out. I don't care when the time comes, but it will be difficult to report to the king."

Shen Fei doesn't care about the technology of papermaking at all. Modern papermaking can be easily found as long as someone wants to check it. The reason why Shen Fei has papermaking is that he found it from the Red Queen.

Papermaking, cement manufacturing methods, steel smelting, are all in the Red Queen.

"Please rest assured, Master Guoshi, Meng Tian will swear to protect everything here.\

,""No need for this. Compared with papermaking, your value is much higher." Shen Fei stood up and said, "Okay, now you all know what to do. It's up to you to do it next. I won't interfere."

Papermaking and steelmaking, although Shen Fei's participation will make progress faster, but Shen Fei doesn't want to waste more time on it. With a complete formula, the Gongshu family will make it sooner or later. Although it will take some time, it is also a good thing for the current Qin State.

Anyway, because of Han Fei's Qin exhaustion plan, Qin State does not have much energy to attack the six countries for the time being. Zhengguo Canal has now begun to be built. Under the auspices of Zheng Guo, this is a time-consuming project.

However, although this project has now delayed most of Qin State's energy, once it is completed, it will be of great benefit to Qin State.

Han Fei's Qin exhaustion plan finally gave Qin State a great advantage. Because of this, Shen Fei did not expose the truth of Qin exhaustion plan.

The Zhengguo Canal was built by Lü Buwei. Although the opposition between Lü Buwei and Ying Zheng is very serious now, it must be said that Lü Buwei played a great role in Ying Zheng's ability to sit firmly on the position of King of Qin. If it were not for Lü Buwei's support, it would not be so easy for Ying Zheng to sit on the position of King of Qin as a hostage of Zhao State.

For so many years, Lü Buwei has been fighting against other people in the Ying family who covet the throne. This is Lü Buwei's contribution to Ying Zheng. Lü Buwei also made great contributions to the Qin State. He introduced a large number of talents from other countries. Although his original intention may be to strengthen his own power, it is also indispensable for the development of Qin State.

Let's take a look at the Zhengguo Canal this time. It is also the credit of Lü Buwei, and the Lüshi Chunqiu, which he asked to preside over the compilation, is also a work that has been passed down to later generations.

However, he has too many merits, and it cannot cover up one thing, that is, competing for power with Ying Zheng. Just based on this point, Lü Buwei is doomed to his end.

As for the rumor that Ying Zheng is the child of Lu Buwei, it is completely nonsense. This is a world with all kinds of magical arts and martial arts. It may be difficult for ordinary people to identify bloodlines, but it is not difficult for the royal family.

Do you really think that Yiren, who can become the King of Qin, is a fool?

In the era of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, all the kings who can ascend to the throne, no matter how unbearable they look, have their own unique features, just like the current King of Han An, who also snatched the throne from the hands of the prince.

Even the current King of Chu was the one who drove Changping Jun away. The situation of Changping Jun back then is somewhat similar to that of Han Fei now.

For the person at the top, no matter how much merit you have, if you hinder his rights, then I'm sorry, I can only get rid of you.

Now Ying Zheng has two major problems to deal with, one is Lü Buwei, the other is the Queen Mother, or more precisely, Lao Ai. It must be said that some people are simply self-centered. As a concubine, they dare to ask for a title of nobility. According to the system of the Qin Dynasty that only military merit can lead to a title of nobility, this is simply courting death.

As for the Queen Mother, Ying Zheng doesn't care at all about how many concubines she has, and even has an affair with Lü Buwei. After all, the previous King of Qin died, and the Queen Mother is lonely.

But this concubine dared to rely on the Queen Mother's favor and bared his teeth at Ying Zheng, that is courting death.

As for Lü Buwei and Lao Ai's affairs, Shen Fei doesn't want to get involved at all. This is Ying Zheng's own business. With Ying Zheng's potential power at this time, whether it is Lü Buwei or Lao Ai, it is just a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Lü Buwei seemed to have great power, but he had a fatal weakness, that is, he had no military power. Since Shang Yang's reform, Qin's control over the army was much stronger than that of the six states in Shandong. You can see this by just looking at the fact that there was no general.

The dragon and tiger cavalry that guarded the safety of Xianyang had always been firmly in the hands of the royal family. In a country like Han, all the troops of a country were in the hands of General Ji Wuye, even the imperial guards.

The imperial guards were in the hands of a foreign minister. It was a pity that the King of Han could sleep so peacefully every day.

This kind of thing would never happen in Qin.

"Greetings, Master Guoshi." Outside the city of Xianyang in Qin, on the edge of an endless field, a group of officials immediately bowed and saluted after seeing Shen Fei get off the carriage.

"Has Master Sinong arrived?"

"Greetings, Master Guoshi." As Shen Fei spoke, an old man with a white beard walked two steps forward from the front of the officials.

"It's just in time. I called everyone here today because there are some things that need to be done. Here are some crops I brought from the Four Extremes. Once cultivated, there will be no more starving people in the world." Shen Fei said, and brought a group of agricultural officials to the front of the crops he had taken out in advance.

In front of each crop, there is a large wooden board with the characteristics of the crop written on it.

In this era, agricultural officials are very important, but they have no real power. In this era, spring plowing is a big deal. Even after the Qin Empire unified the Central Plains, the Spring Festival Ceremony was held every year.

Once the crops were affected by disasters, even Han Wangan would order disaster relief, because agriculture is the foundation. Han Fei's Five Vermin also emphasized the importance of agriculture, not to mention Shang Yang's Reforms.

"Master State Master, are these records true?" The old Si Nong rushed directly to Shen Fei with two potatoes in his eyes, and scared the two guards on the side, almost drawing their weapons.

Because of Ying Zheng's statement in the court, everyone in Xianyang knows that Qin has a powerful national teacher. Compared with Yue Shen, the national teacher, the two are simply incomparable.

In fact, not only Qin, but also the six countries in Shandong also know about Shen Fei, the new national teacher, and many people have speculated about the origin of this national teacher.

"Whether it is true or not, it depends on your verification next."

Even if Ying Zheng believes in Shen Fei very much, even if Shen Fei himself is very confident, but it involves food, the foundation of the country, and it is not too much to pay attention to it. Without verification, it is impossible to promote it on a large scale.

"Everything is in these scrolls. The rest is your business. Don't come to me if you have nothing to do." Shen Fei said as he got on the carriage and left. This time he came to the land given to him by Ying Zheng, a manor that once belonged to the royal family, and now belongs to Shen Fei.

"I can't guarantee that your slavery can be lifted, but I can guarantee that once you have made contributions, your children will no longer be slaves."

Slavery, Shen Fei has no way to completely change it, because many of them are prisoners of war or enemy countries, and many people cannot be pardoned, but Shen Fei still got some privileges from Ying Zheng, and even Ying Zheng himself is implementing it.

Give the slaves some hope, even if these hopes are slim, as long as there is hope, their attitude will be completely different from before.

Si Nong is experimenting with crops that are very important to the entire Central Plains, and Shen Fei's manor has its own purpose, that is, vegetables, greenhouse technology, and even pig and sheep farming technology.

Meat in this era is really scarce, and ordinary civilians can only rely on luck to hunt some game.

"Qiwutang should reopen." After arranging people to handle some necessary matters, Shen Fei didn't care much, but opened Qiwutang again in Xianyang City. When he used alchemy to refine glass, Shen Fei also took out the formula of glass and shared it with Ying Zheng.

Money is necessary in any era.

If it was a small amount of money, Ying Zheng might not care, but this was not a small amount of money.

The shop opened by the national teacher, plus the exotic colored glaze and now glass, the shop was of course full of customers.

Late at night, outside the study of the manor given by Ying Zheng, which was now converted by Shen Fei into the Sun Moon Villa, a black shadow quietly passed through the moon gate, looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, he immediately jumped into the study from the open window on one side.

"What are you looking for?" Just as the man in black was flipping through the books on the bookshelf lightly, a voice suddenly sounded in the study. The sudden voice made the man in black startled, but the next thing, a powerful true qi burst out from his body and rushed straight to the direction of the door, because the direction of the sound came from the window.

However, just when the man in black was about to make a move, he suddenly found that his body was tightly entangled by chains at some point, and the true qi he burst out did not let him move a step.

"Who am I? It turns out to be Luo Wang." He pulled the man in black to his side and saw the black spider on the man's neck with the help of the moonlight.

"Hey, he committed suicide by taking poison. There really is a trick of hiding poison in the teeth." Shen Fei, who was about to interrogate the man in black, suddenly saw that his face was not right, and then immediately pulled off the black scarf on his face, and found a trace of black blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

"The throat is sealed when seeing blood, it is really worthy of Luowang." Since the person is dead, naturally he cannot be interrogated. As for using this corpse to cause trouble for Luowang, it is even more nonsense. A black spider tattoo does not mean anything, there are excuses.

"Lu Buwei, this guy, actually puts his energy on me at this time." Shaking his head gently, Shen Fei handed the corpse to the guards to deal with.

"When I walked by, hundreds of flowers bloomed." The back mountain of Sun and Moon Villa is a very secluded bamboo forest. It is very quiet and peaceful. It is also the place where Shen Fei practices Yin and Yang magic. With the progress of Wanye Feihualiu, Shen Fei can now do it. When he walks forward, beautiful flowers continue to bloom behind him.

"The technique of the Bloody Marquis can be used as a reference." Looking at the ice rose slowly emerging in front of him, Shen Fei showed a smile on his face. This is the Bai Lu Qi Shuang in the Yin-Yang technique.

With this, he no longer needs to use a Polaroid camera to drink frozen drinks. The ice system is for cooling, and the fire system is for heating. If the Yin-Yang family sees him using the Yin-Yang technique like this, they will probably be surprised.

"Master State Master."

"It's Master Li. You came to me today. I think it must have been completed."

"Thanks to Master State Master, it has been completed."

Li Si handed a document to Shen Fei respectfully. Although the paper was very rough, it was indeed paper. With all the processes, the Gongshu family quickly made a sample of the paper. Although it was very rough at the beginning and could only be used as straw paper, with continuous improvements, it can now be written.

One of the very important reasons why Shen Fei took out the papermaking technique was that going to the toilet in this era was a disaster for ordinary people. Stones, bamboo strips, etc. were used.

Only rich people, nobles, etc. could afford cloth, and the royal family used silk.

"Thank you for your hard work, Lord Li." Shen Fei said to Li Si while reading the documents. He still had some respect for Li Si. After all, although he had a bad ending in later life, he was also the first prime minister of the Qin Empire.

"You are too polite, Lord State Master. Everything is for Qin and for the king." Li Si said with his hands clasped and a respectful face.

"I am afraid that Lord Li will continue to work hard to establish this prototype first."

"This is what Li Si should do." Li Si said respectfully.

What Shen Fei asked Li Si to do was very simple, that is, to make a plan for the newly added police department of Qin. Shen Fei had already talked to Ying Zheng about the independence of the judiciary, and Ying Zheng also agreed to the police.

However, the establishment of a new department is not so easy. It involves many aspects and is very laborious, so in the end this task was handed over to Li Si.

For Li Si, this was a difficult task, but also an opportunity to show his abilities. After careful consideration and with some suggestions from Shen Fei, his plan, although not comparable to that of later police departments, was already quite decent.
