055 Wang Yi: Poof! Can you still let the old man have a good sip of tea!

Xianyang Royal City, in the middle of a wide field:

“General Wang, has there been any difficulty in planting this corn?”

Before Huan Ziye knew that a paper he had sent to his father, Emperor Huan Zheng, almost made the first emperor turn around and return to Xianyang.

At this moment, he was watching Wang Chui, who personally took off his shoes and went to the ground in front of him, wearing a bucket to shade the sun, and his skin was eroded by wind and frost, and asked kindly.

If he didn’t know Wang Yi, who could have guessed that such a man like a simple old peasant was an old general from a famous family, the highest ranking senior in the Great Qin Army, the contemporary war god of the empire, and the great hero of pacifying the Six Kingdoms.

Huan Ziye had nothing to do tonight, so he came to Wang Chu’s fief to check the progress of corn planting, accompanied by Gai Nie.

After all, in the current situation, corn that yields thousands of catties per acre will definitely become the most important crop in Daqin in the future, so Huan Ziye is still very attentive.

“Young Emperor, although you said that corn is very drought tolerant, cold tolerant, and barren tolerant, but after all, this is a fetish related to whether the tens of millions of people in Daqin can eat, Your Highness entrusted the cultivation and planting of corn to the old man, if there is the slightest mistake, the old man is not at ease with death!”

“So, I called on the most experienced farmer in the fiefdom and chose it as a high-quality field, and now, as long as the land is ploughed, it is time to start planting corn!”

Wang Yi pointed to the best piece of land in his royal family and some farmers who ploughed the fields, and grinned at Huan Ziye.

“It’s just that this land is a little difficult to plow, I’m afraid I have to plow another day or two, if His Highness feels that the progress is a little slow, the old man will find a way to transfer some cattle and farmers over!”

Wang Chong looked at the field that had been ploughed, and his expression was also a little anxious, in order for the corn to grow better, the land must be ploughed soft enough.

However, in Daqin, the number of cattle cultivated in the land was not only protected by Qin Law, but also in small numbers, although Wang Chong himself had let his subordinates eat beef openly when he was young, but it was for war.

Today, Wang Yi also deeply understands how important cattle are as the most important cultivation tool at present, in addition, it takes two cows and three people to plow a field, and the rate is naturally slower.

Huan Ziye’s eyes looked into the field, and sure enough, in the field, the farmer of the land was one man in front of the oxen, one sitting on the bar, stepping on the plow, pressing the ploughshare into the soil by weight, and supporting the plough behind him.

Not to mention the plough, you have to pull the weight of a few more people, the ploughing is not deep, so that the two cows in front are also tired and panting, and the farmer has obviously done something hard.

All this is because the current use is a straight plow, simply put, the ploughshare is in a straight line with a downward slope, which is perpendicular to the plough bed, which leads to the plough can not eat much soil, and it is easy to bump the plough bed out.

Therefore, it takes a person to put pressure on the plough above to prevent the plow from coming out of the ground, and the effort spent and wasted becomes much greater.

Huan Ziye looked at the scene in front of him, and a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes.

Even the Wang family and other fiefs ploughing the land is a difficult thing, let alone those ordinary people. It seems that the popularization of the Quyuan plow cannot be delayed!

“Gai Nie, take this drawing to find the public to lose revenge, let him quickly build a few out, and then bring it back here!”

Huan Ziye handed the detailed construction drawings of the Quyuan plow to Gai Nie, ordered Qi Nie, and then Gai Nie left the place like a phantom.

“Young Emperor, grandpa, you have worked hard, come and rest.”

A gentle voice sounded next to Huan Ziye, and Wang Yi and Huan Ziye looked back.

It is the gentle and beautiful Wang Yanxue.

“Frolic, brother, old General Wang!”

“See the young emperor, see the old general Wang!”

And what surprised Huan Ziye a little was that Li Linger, the daughter of Yin Yan and Li Si, also came here with Wang Yanxue, it seems that the three girlfriends must have been idle and knew that they and Wang Yi were here, so they looked for them.

Moreover, the three women are not wearing gorgeous palace skirts, but the curved style of the top and bottom that are common to agricultural women, not to mention, it really has a special flavor!

After receiving the thirst quenching tea brought by Wang Yanxue.

Huan Ziye gestured to Wang Yanxue and Li Linger, and Wang Yi also smiled a little tightly.

The third daughter, on the other hand, went down to the field and brought tea to the sweaty farmers who ploughed the fields.

Seeing Yin Yan and Li Linger Wang Yanxue like this, Huan Ziye took a sip of tea and said to Wang Yi, who was a little comfortable beside him, with a satisfied smile

“Old General, the efficiency of this plough is indeed too slow, but the reason is that the farmer uses a straight plow.”

“Ben Shaodi has developed a kind of curved plough here, and if it is used, it should be able to increase the efficiency of peasants’ ploughing by several times.”

“The operation is similar to ploughing, except that this kind of thing is more convenient, and the effect can reach 50 acres of land per day, and one person and one ox are enough.”

“Poof!”

I didn’t wait for Huan Ziye to finish.

Wang Chong was just like the last time he heard that corn acres yielded thousands of catties.

The tea in the mouth seemed to be very hot, and a sip of tea instantly spewed out!
