Chapter 110: Food Production Reduction
Chapter 110: Food Production Reduction
Planting trees requires manpower, and they agreed that someone would stay at home with her during the day and night.
After three whole days, her fever finally subsided and the pimples on her face disappeared. Looking at herself in the mirror, Qin Xingfu really doubted the existence of the saying "taking yang to replenish yin".
"My Lord, you are getting more and more beautiful. I can't let you go."
Mi Fu hugged her from behind and said that she was now incredibly charming.
"I think so too. Have the children been throwing tantrums these past few days?"
Qin Xingfu is very narcissistic.
"It's a fuss. I don't care about them. I'm worried that you'll go out and eat secretly."
Her skills are becoming more and more powerful. Every time they fight, they have to give their all in order to not lose.
"How is that possible? I just got irritated. I'll be back to normal in a few days."
Qin Xingfu was speechless. She was not the kind of person who would do anything reckless.
"I was just kidding. We are almost done planting the fruit trees you brought back!"
"Okay! Where's the good morning kiss?"
Mi Fu kissed her, and Qin Xingfu hugged him tightly, seeming a little unsatisfied.
"Sir, should... um..."
………………
Finally satisfied, Qin Xingfu felt refreshed, changed her clothes, and walked out of the room to take care of the child.
Mi Fu came out holding his waist. He felt both pain and enjoyment. He also wanted to eat a few more durians to see if it would cause him to get a sore throat.
Xianyang, Jianglu brought back rice seeds, gold, gems and fruits.
Seeing that she was content here, Qingque felt a little like home and went back with the boat.
The First Emperor frowned as he looked at the gold, gems, and fragrant fruits.
"Is this the good stuff you mentioned? It smells so strong?"
"Father, yes, you try it first. I didn't like it at first, but later I liked it. It's very sweet!"
Seeing how serious he was, the First Emperor was afraid that he might not believe it and take a big bite. He thought it tasted good, so he took a small sip and quickly rinsed his mouth.
"I can't eat it all, give it all away! The gold and gems are ordinary, but can this rice seed really produce three harvests a year?"
"Huiyuan said that this also requires hybridization and breeding. I remember there is a man named Shengjian who is quite good at this. Why don't we let him go to Xiangjun and give it a try?"
"Well, this time the contribution is huge. Let Qin Xingfu and Gongshu Yuan take charge of the base together."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
He knew that if his father waited for another opportunity, Huiyuan would be very happy. He, as a brother, was good to her!
"Go down! Let Ying Gu count them and put them into the national treasury."
The First Emperor pointed at the gold and gems and ordered Lu to accept the order.
"Here!"
When Ying Gu saw the gems, his eyes lit up. Qi Hua, who was following behind him, was also very happy. These things were so beautiful! There was also gold. In addition to the gold nuggets, there were also a lot of gold sand and gold ore.
I really admire Qin Xingfu more and more. As long as he uses a little trick, he can be surpassed by others.
When Li Si heard about her change of identity, he vomited blood. Why? Was she really an immortal? Could she find everything?
"Father, forget it! We have no worries about food and clothing now. Look at how other families have been ostracized."
"I know that, but I am afraid of her counterattack! I will not be willing to kill her."
"Father, when she was exiled, His Majesty secretly sent people to protect her along the way. That was His Majesty! How could we do that?"
Li You had wanted to say it a long time ago, but he had always insisted on having his own way, and as he got older he could no longer see clearly.
Li Si coughed a few times and said.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't care about this anymore. I'll leave this family to you. Remember, don't take her and her descendants lightly!"
"Okay! I got it, take the medicine as soon as possible! Keeping healthy is the most important thing."
After drinking the medicine, Li Si fell into a deep sleep. He always wanted to ask her why she always looked down on him. He, Li Si, had only done one wrong thing in his life, and he was instigated by others. Apart from that, he was worthy of His Majesty and the people of the world!
Qin Xingfu, who was often missed by others, was not very happy now. She had finally gotten used to the rest, and now that she was asked to take office, the First Emperor really treated her like a dog.
She didn't want to go, but Jianglu tried to persuade her every day at home. Even Fusu wrote to her, saying that the First Emperor had been suffering from major and minor illnesses in the past year or two, and his greatest wish was to achieve great unification. He knew that she was wronged and would compensate her in the future.
Her family members also took turns to persuade her, so she had to return to the base again.
Gongshu Yuan was very happy that she came back, and brought the Gongshu family's people and base to welcome her return.
"Okay, stop doing this and do what you need to do! I come for five days and rest for two days!"
Qin Xingfu waved her hand and everyone laughed. As the backbone, as long as she was there, everyone had strength and worked very actively.
The people of Gongshu's family were speechless when they saw them change their attitude so quickly, but Gongshu Yuan also warned them not to cause trouble, as they now needed to consolidate their base.
Qin Xingfu made a round of inspection as usual, reminding people to pay attention to safety, and there was nothing else to do.
When she had nothing to do, she started making more accurate weather measuring instruments and seismographs. Sheng Jian came to Xiangjun and hadn't seen her for several months. He heard that she was at the base most of the time, so he went to look for her.
"My humble servant Sheng Jian greets you, my Lord!"
"You! You are finally not a taciturn person after all these years. Tell me! What's wrong?"
"Sir, although the annual grain production of Daqin has been high in recent years, the actual growth rate has been gradually decreasing. On average, the yield per acre of land has been decreasing year by year. The traditional method of composting can no longer meet the needs of Daqin. I think you should have noticed this, and with the three-harvest rice per year, I don't know what to do!"
Qin Xingfu was surprised at how much this man had changed. This man was really observant.
"Sit down! It's tiring to stand. Have some tea."
Sheng Jian sat down. He had been doing what she said all these years. In the beginning, the annual output was okay, but now the output can't be increased anymore. He was getting anxious.
"I had anticipated what you said, but I was not sure whether to do it. After all, once the fertilizer plant is built, it will cause great pollution to the environment."
"Now that the Qin Empire is conquering all corners of the country, the people are constantly reclaiming wasteland every day. If the output doesn't increase, they will die of exhaustion."
"I understand. I will perfect each link and try to get it ready by the end of the year and put it into use next year!"
Agriculture and chemical industry are inseparable. If the land is cultivated continuously, even if it is rested for a year every few years, it still cannot meet the needs of Daqin. The fertility of the land is gradually declining, and chemical fertilizers are needed to supplement it.
"Thank you, sir!"
Sheng Jian talked a lot about official business and had no idea what else he was talking about.
"Thank you for your hard work over the years. Have you started a family? I never heard you tell me."
"I'm already married, with three daughters and two sons. My wife is doing very well! Thank you for your concern for these little things, sir!"
Sheng Jian took a sip of tea and didn't know what to say afterwards.
"Okay, you're still like this. I'll remember what you said. If you have nothing else to do, you can go ahead and do your work!"
Sheng Jian breathed a sigh of relief. He really didn't know what to say, so he stood up and saluted.
"Thank you for your help, sir! I'll take my leave now!"
After he left, Qin Xingfu picked up paper and pen and started drawing. A chemical plant would need a lot of things, and she had to report to the First Emperor after she finished.
She needed information, looked at the time, and found Gongshu Yuan to talk to him.
"Are you free? Take me back!"
Gongshu Yuan has gotten used to her treating him as a coachman, but this is good. The more trust he has in her, the better!
He led the horse and said.
"Let's go!"
Qin Xingfu got on her horse and locked herself up when she got home. Gongshu Yuan was simply ignored.
He didn't get angry. He rode back, walked to a valley, and went straight into the woods and disappeared.
Looking at the house in front of me, it is almost a one-to-one replica of Qin Xingfu's current residence, even the details are the same.
Gongshu Yuan licked his lips. He couldn't wait any longer! He was just one step away from making the medicine.
Qin Xingfu, who was concentrating on looking up information, suddenly felt a chill on his back. It was as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. It was a very bad feeling!
But she soon stopped thinking about it and concentrated on her work. At this moment, she was very glad that she had the habit of collecting books and materials, both ancient and modern, both Chinese and foreign. This to a certain extent avoided many things from happening.
She entered into a crazy work mode again, and the man and the child were forgotten, but they were used to it and felt that this was the right thing to do.
At night, Dan Yao found her out from a pile of drawings.
"My Lord, it's time to go to bed!"
"Ah! Is it so late? Is Qiqi asleep?"
"Well, you fell asleep. Are you hungry? I'll give you something to eat."
Qin Xingfu touched her belly.
"I'm not hungry. Let's go! Let's go to bed."
After washing up, Dan Yao was already waiting for her. Qin Xingfu wiped her hair and then lifted his chin.
"Girl, smile for me!"
Tan Yao gave her a shy smile, and Qin Xingfu's heart softened. He kissed her hard, and Tan Yao liked her like this, so he hugged her tightly.
........................
"Mom, you lazy bastard! Get up!"
Qin Wuji was so bored. Her brothers and sisters all had to go study, and she wanted her mother to accompany her.
Qin Xingfu narrowed his eyes and said while hugging her.
"Jiaojiao! It's so early today."
"Well, my brothers and sisters are either studying or practicing martial arts, and my dad only knows how to teach people how to cook. Jiaojiao is very bored."
"Where's Qiqi?"
"Dad took her away, saying he wanted to take her for more walks."
"Well, when your sister can walk, she can play with you. How about the most beautiful accessories that mommy will give you today?"
"That shiny stone?"
"Well, what color do you like?"
Qin Wuji took out a ruby from his small bag and said.
"Mom, I love this."
"Okay, but this one is too big. It would be a waste if it broke. I'll find you a few smaller ones. Wait a minute while mommy washes up."
"Good~"
He sat there waiting for her obediently. After washing up, she picked up the child and went to pick out small gems to make jewelry.
She never lacked gold, silver and treasures, and let the children choose for themselves. She would then start making necklaces and crowns for them, so that they could be happy little princesses.
Qin Wuji smiled happily as he saw that the gem became even more beautiful in his mother's hands.
“Mom is awesome!”
"Little clever devil."
She couldn't favor one over the other, so she made crowns and necklaces for her daughters and hair crowns for her sons, which would be useful when they grew up.
It was full of jewels, but luckily it wasn't too tacky. Qin Wuzhi finished making the necklace in just one morning and she wore it out for a stroll.
"Dad Xin, this is the necklace my mom made for me."
"Dad Bu, this is the necklace my mom made for me~"
The conceited look made them laugh, and the light reflected from the gems in the sun dazzled them.
"Jiaojiao is so beautiful! The things made by mom are very precious, don't let anyone take them away~"
Yue Xin felt that she was a bit of a spendthrift, as she gave such a precious thing to the children to play with. The children didn't know how valuable the things were, and they were really worried that they would disappear after taking a walk outside.
"Well, this is made by mom, I won't give it to anyone else!"
Qin Wuji covered her necklace and went to her room to find her skirt.
"Dad Bu, help me put on my skirt."
Ying Bu discovered that she was vain, so he went into the house to help her change clothes. Finally, she found a goose yellow dress and put on a necklace. She felt that she was the most beautiful person in the world.
"Dad Bu, am I beautiful?"
"Yeah, Jiaojiao is the most beautiful!"
This character is indeed just like adults, he likes to be praised.
Qin Wuji held her little face in her hands and looked at the mirror, laughing. When Queen Ying came back and saw her, she found it very dazzling.
"Jiaojiao, did you dress this up yourself?"
This outfit is too dazzling!
"Yeah, I think it looks good this way. Dad, please draw me."
Queen Ying couldn't bear to dampen her aesthetic taste and wanted to refuse, Yue Xin said.
"I'll make lunch, you just draw for her!"
Queen Ying listened to her and drew a picture for her. When Qin Xingfu came out, she thought it was a little golden man and secretly took a picture of her like this with her mobile phone. She will regret it later. She is a little smart girl who knows how to dress herself before she is three years old.
After spending two days doing her own things, she will have to concentrate on her work in the following time.
"Sir, we can do this."
Gongshu Yuan picked up the drawing on the ground and said.
"It can be done, but the safety demonstration has not yet passed. Once it is built, an explosion will hurt innocent people. There are also various sensors that will take time to produce."
"Can I see it?"
Qin Xingfu gave him a stack of drawings and materials. Gongshu Yuan looked at them carefully. It was a bit difficult, but he still managed to understand them.
In fact, there is another problem. She doesn't know what Lop Nur is like now. It will take a long time just to find it, and people will die. If the factory is built in Europe or America, it is too far away and unrealistic. The mine in Simao, Yunnan Province is the closest, but it is difficult to go there now. The transportation is too inconvenient. If you want to develop it, you have to build roads and bridges, which is another big project.
It was quite easy to achieve results in ancient times, but it was a bit troublesome as transportation was a big problem.
"My Lord, does this bother you?"
Gongshu Yuan saw her rubbing her head and sighing constantly, and thought it was difficult.
"No, I'm just wondering where to get the raw materials. You can take a look first to get an idea. If you have any questions, come to me."
I'm hungry and don't want to think, so I get up and go to the cafeteria to eat and then take a rest.
Gongshu Yuan looked at her back, thought for a while, then quickly lowered his head to look up. Qin Xingfu came back from dinner, thought about it and sent a telegram to the First Emperor, leaving it to him to decide how to arrange it.
The First Emperor looked at the letter in his hand. How long had it been since this girl cared about the affairs of the court? Now these places are all the territory of the Qin Dynasty, but many people reported that the place she mentioned was indeed difficult.
"Call that Lei Tai."
"Here!"
