Ye Luqi replied very happily, the prince looked at Zi Yao, "Don't be too tired, the second brother will go north tomorrow, will you send him?"

Zi Yao shook her head and looked at the water surface, "Don't send it away, I'll pick him up when he returns victorious!" The prince understood that she was just afraid that the parting would make her uncontrollable. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zi Yao thought about it and said to the prince: "Let's go to the flower hall and sit down! I have a business that is more suitable for discussing with the prince's brother, and I can expand the treasury!"

The prince was very happy to hear this, "Okay! Sister Yao is really my Jiade's lucky star!" Ye Luqi also came over, "That is, if my Dawan Kingdom does not have the strategy of the county lord of Xining, I can't tell how long I will fight with Jiade! Not to mention the loss of labor and money, it is the common people who suffer the most, and they have no fixed place to live, and after returning to China, I will crown the county lord as the holy daughter of the Dawan country, so that the world will worship and admire!"

Zi Yao blushed slightly, the two of them sang and harmonized, so people were not embarrassed, and entered the flower hall to stabilize their minds by asking someone to serve tea, and said with a straight face: "Brother Prince and Prince Yeluqi, you two can think about it, I want to plant several food crops in Dawan to Jiade, because of the geographical location of the cold climate, Dawan will not have a very good income from planting, and these kinds of food crops do not pick land, I once heard the master mention, it is very easy to plant, saline-alkali land, tidal flats, Gravel land can be grown, as long as the temperature is right and there is water, and with proper care, the yield is very huge, and we can plant it and sell it to other countries across the sea. ”

Ye Luqi searched and couldn't find the crop Zi Yao said, so she hurriedly asked: "What kind of plant is the Xining County Lord talking about! Why don't I seem to know that there is such a thing!"

The prince also looked at Zi Yao in confusion, "Hehe, the first is corn, with golden seeds on the outside of the long cob; the second is the potato, or it should be called the potato, its rhizome at the bottom is yellow, and the flesh can be used as vegetable stew after cooking, and it is an excellent food to satisfy hunger in times of famine; the third is called sweet potato, which is also a root buried at the bottom, with a purple skin, and the flesh is golden and yellow, if it is roasted and eaten, the sweet, soft and slippery are very delicious." ”

While talking about Zi Yao, she sketched its appearance on the bookcase, and Ye Luqi suddenly knew what it was, but she was a little skeptical: "There is a way for these kinds of things, I heard that they were found by the people when they went up the mountain to pick them in order to resist the famine, but is it really that good? I haven't eaten it!" Zi Yao shook her head, "Of course you are the prince who has not eaten it, but I have eaten it made by the master, and it is extremely delicious!"

Ye Luqi immediately wrote a letter on the paper on which Zi Yao had sketched the pattern, and asked the entourage to return to Dawan Country when to go back, if it is true, hurry up a large number of purchases and send it to Zi Yao, Zi Yao nodded with satisfaction.

The prince patted her head and said, "How do you want to cooperate with Lone?" Zi Yao smiled, looked at the prince and said: "Let's cooperate with the three parties, Prince Yeluqi will give 10% of the seeds, I will be responsible for planting and training personnel for 20%, and you will be responsible for the land and 70% of the sales?"

The prince and Yeluqi glanced at each other, how could they feel like they had been calculated by this little fox, Zi Yao slyly tugged at the corners of her mouth, waiting for the two to answer, on the contrary, she was not in a hurry, it was a big deal to stay for two more years to save enough money to be the richest man in Jiade, and these two are different, they are everywhere in ruins, what a stable thing it is to keep the people fed and clothed, the two nodded in unison, Zi Yao breathed a sigh of relief, " Recently, the autumn harvest is over, and it just so happens that the prince of Yeluqi is hurrying to buy the seeds of various crops, and the prince's brother wants to collect the land, and he will also issue an order to convey that we can hire local laborers in addition to the normal ** salary, and the only requirement is to take a period of time to learn new planting techniques before sowing after the year, but you have to find fifty people with good character to come over and I will teach them in advance, and then let them go to train the laborers, what do you think?"

The prince rubbed his nose and smiled, "You have thought about it so maturely, and we only have to cooperate." Zi Yao was very happy, went back to the inner room and took out a large volume of drawings, put them in front of the two, Ye Luqi looked at the prince with puzzled eyes, "You! I have little contact with her, she is the kind of person who sells you and you have to help her count the money, the little girl has already calculated it, just wait for how to drill into it!" Yeluqi came to her senses, but she was willing, because she still had that indescribable feeling for her, and she also loved her when she looked at the prince, since she didn't fight for it and just guarded it, then he could only watch the little girl happy and wanton or, he still had a place to be calculated by her.

Zi Yao opened the drawings, the first thing that caught her eye was a waterwheel, a big bamboo and wood structure, the design of each layer of bamboo tube was clear at a glance, which was refreshing, the prince put down the teacup and studied it seriously, "This is a waterwheel for irrigation!"

Zi Yao looked at the prince's lips and replied: "It's really smart, yes, it is a bucket type waterwheel for irrigation, as long as you build a ditch around the field, it can be used, it is made of bamboo or wood, first make a big vertical wheel, and then use a drum made of logs to erect it, install dozens of skeletons on the drum to support and connect, and the round wheel is also equipped with wooden impellers and many hollow, oblique large bamboo tubes." There is a wheel on the top and bottom, the lower wheel is half submerged in water, and there is a wheel belt between the two wheels, and the wheel belt is equipped with many bamboo tubes with a length of rulers. When the water hits the water wheel below, the bamboo tube is soaked with water, and the water from the river or canal is brought to a high place and poured out from the bottom up. ”

Turning another page, a small waterwheel appeared, "and this kind of 'overturned' whose body is made of wooden planks to make a long groove, and this groove is two feet long, seven inches wide, and about one foot high. There is a pavement slab in this long groove, and the width of this pavement slab is about the same as the width of the long groove, but the length is one foot shorter than the two ends of the long groove, and the place shorter than the long groove is used to place the large and small axles. The big shaft is placed on the shore, and the two sides of the big shaft are respectively connected with the crutch with four small wooden sticks in the form of handles, as long as the person leans on the shelf, stepping on the small stick, will step on the crutch, and stepping on the crutch will drive the keel plate at the same time, then the keel board will rotate around the pavement board, so as to scrape the water ashore. Two children can pedal!"

Zi Yao continued to turn the page, and at this time, the prince and Ye Luqi couldn't sit still, so they got up and carefully checked in front of the table, "This is the 'Quyuan plow', which has several major improvements compared to the plough currently used by Jiade. First of all, the straight wheel, the long wheel is changed to the curved wheel, the short wheel, and the plow disc that can rotate freely is installed at the head of the wheel, so that not only the plow frame becomes smaller and lighter, but also is convenient for turning and turning, the operation is flexible, and the manpower and animal power are saved. One person can do it with a bigger ox. ”

After saying this, Zi Yao took a sip of water from the teacup, and continued: "Actually, He Fanghua is right, my knowledge is not what should appear in this society now, I learned it from the master, he said that he came from us after a thousand years, so these technologies are very mature, I will tell them to you two highnesses now, I hope that the people can use these knowledge and technology to improve their lives, so that they can be more stable and peaceful, even if they are burned to death as a demon girl, I have no regrets!"

The prince's face sank, and he became even more determined to treat this He Fanghua well in the evening, and hurriedly comforted: "Don't worry that I have already arranged for someone to deal with the rumors just now, no matter who is involved, I will not tolerate it!" Zi Yao smiled, "I can't stop it." The prince twisted his eyebrows and pondered Zi Yao's deep meaning, could it be that He Fanghua told the palace, and the sudden realization made his heart tighten: "I know, don't worry about dealing with it now, don't go out, it doesn't matter if the second brother can't catch up, I'll let the guards block the capital first, I want to see who dares to disobey, even if it's the queen mother! In addition, Prince Qi will stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion for the time being to help me take care of Sister Yao! I will take these drawings away for use first, and then I will transcribe a few more points for Prince Qi to take away." ”

Bidding farewell to the two, the prince hurried to the palace, and before entering the palace, he arranged for his cronies to go to the capital government to inform that if there were people who spread rumors, once they caught the rumors and proved to be true, they would be beheaded directly, and then turned around and entered the palace. After arriving at the queen's Summer Palace, he found that the emperor was also there, and directly asked the two of them to say goodbye, and after being called, he explained his intention to the emperor, and asked the queen: "The queen mother He Fanghua has ever come to the palace to tell the queen mother some rumors? ”

The queen's face sank like water, and she smashed the teacup hard at the prince's feet: "Hmph! The prince's wings are stiff, and now he can control his mother, why are you still so protective of her after they divorce you, what are rumors! It is clearly a fact, if she is not a demon girl, how can she have such outstanding medical skills! How can she invent such a vicious weapon? How can you envelop the wives of officials of all sizes in a short period of time! How can you argue and question the queen mother charmingly? How can you make King Ning give up her title and ask herself to be demoted to a concubine in order to get her? Will you explain to Hongu then?"

The queen generously stated that she was angry with the prince, forgetting that the emperor who was still drinking tea on the side, and the emperor slammed the table: "The queen is so reasonable!" The queen realized that she had just overstepped, and hurriedly knelt down to ask for guilt: "The emperor atoned for his sins, and the concubine was just confused!

The emperor was happy: "Isn't the queen a good student who admonishes me just now! When does the queen need to manage things outside the harem? Hmm? He Yanran is the lord of Xining County, and when there is any behavior that is not conducive to the country or disobedience to others, I will deal with it, the queen has overstepped, and I have thought about it behind closed doors recently! An Liu passed on my will, the queen is unwell and needs to recuperate, and in the face of the palaces, she asked for the gift of peace, and ordered the virtuous concubine and the concubine to temporarily act on behalf of the harem. After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and called the prince to leave with him.
