"Huh?" Lees blinked.

Isn't it an improvement in farming techniques? Is it an increase in seed yield?

The yield per mu has doubled, and it is not that no one in Daqin can do it today.

Objectively evaluated, the farmer is a good hand at serving crops, and the yield of grain per mu can only reach as much as 400 catties.

However, this is an isolated case, which does not have the conditions for replication, and is even more difficult to promote.

Seeds are different, they can be directly spread to the local area like sweet potatoes and potatoes.

"Is that true?"

Needless to say, what does it mean to double the yield per mu, this can no longer be called a seed, but should be called auspicious.

"What did I do to coax Li Xiang?" Zhao Si smiled and looked at the First Emperor.

"How is it that when the seed comes to you, the yield per mu has changed?" Li Si muttered, halfway through his words, as if he realized something and stopped talking.

"How long does it take to harvest the millet?" The First Emperor glanced at Zhao Si deeply and asked.

"It's grown, but it still has to be sunned, and now it can ......be harvested," Zhao Si replied.

The First Emperor pondered for a moment and nodded.

"In that case, then wait until the time of the Great Patrol to pray for the mountains and rivers to announce the civil and military affairs, and harvest them together."

The first emperor's grand tour of the world is a major event, ancient times are not like modern times, long journeys are not an easy thing, a thousand miles, difficulties and dangers, so every time the first emperor patrols the world, he has to pray for mountains, rivers and rivers.

"You go and take someone to see the growth of millet and estimate the yield." The First Emperor looked at Li Si.

"Your Majesty, the minister has already ......" Zhao Si estimated the output by himself, and was just about to answer, but was stopped by the sharp gaze of the first emperor, Zhao Si felt something, and hurriedly stopped talking.

Hearing this, Li Si glanced at Zhao Si and bowed down to lead the order to leave.

In the palace, with Li Si's departure, only silence remained, and the First Emperor bowed his head to continue to read the folds.

Obviously, the output of millet does not need to be estimated, and Li Si was also deliberately taken away by the First Emperor.

And Zhao Si also knows very well why this happened, there are too many things on his body to explain.

I somehow found sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes, knew the gold and silver mines of Fusang, and was able to draw a map of the world, a route map, and a series of things such as the Quyuan plow on the sea......

When Zhao Si wants to change this era, he will inevitably expose himself.

Zhao Si would not be stupid to think that the First Emperor was a stupid white sweet, in fact, Zhao Si had a premonition in his heart that the things on his body could hide from many people, such as Wang Li and others.

But only the first emperor could not be hidden......

There is no way, Zhao Si's trajectory after crossing is too clear, he has never been alone, and it is very simple for the First Emperor to know his specific situation, he only needs to ask the crew to piece together the trajectory of his life.

Zhao Si didn't know when the First Emperor found out about it, but he was sure that the First Emperor would not have discovered it because he had brought up the high-yield grain varieties today.

Zhao Si didn't know how to speak for a while, and the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.

An embarrassing atmosphere appeared in the air, until a long time later, the First Emperor raised his head and looked at Zhao Si with a smile and said with a bit of playfulness in his tone: "Let's talk about it......"

Zhao Si, this kid, something is wrong, something is wrong!

The First Emperor has been discovering it since a long time ago.

The First Emperor is not a fool, he has been deceived by Xu Fu once, so after Zhao Si returned to Qin, the First Emperor has already sent Zhao Si to investigate the bottom of the day.

It was a talent that the first emperor used to divide the six countries, and it can be said that it was overkill to find a Zhao Si.

There was no need to make any effort at all, Zhao Si's life history was clearly investigated, and he even found relatives that Zhao Si didn't know by the way.

The Book of Calculations, Horseshoes, Fabrication, Curved Ploughs......

These suspicious points were already clear to the First Emperor, but the First Emperor did not investigate them before, Zhao Si did not speak, and the First Emperor did not mean to force Zhao Si.

But this time it's different......

The sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn that Zhao Si brought back before are, after all, overseas crops that are not available in Daqin.

It is not unacceptable that the high point of production is the high point.

But what is Zhao Si planting this time? Grain?

It is the existing five grains in the Central Plains, and Zhao Si has planted them, and the yield per mu is doubled!

It is a problem of seeds, not a problem of tricks, Zhao Si has made it very clear at this point, this kind of grain that is twice as large as the past can be popularized in the world of Great Qin.

"What ...... say," Zhao Si scratched his head and pretended to be confused.

"Grain seeds." The First Emperor asked questions straightforwardly, so it was not the style of the First Emperor to hide the mystery.

"How is it grown?"

"That's it...... Planted and planted, had nothing to do to walk around twice like this, and then it grew up. Zhao Si sneered.

He is indeed telling the truth, there is no high-end technique for the grains he cultivates, except for normal fertilization, watering, weeding and catching insects, he just has nothing to walk around.

The aura of the jade is the core factor......

However, it is clear that such nonsense reasons did not convince the First Emperor.

Is it okay to walk around and double crop yields? What is the auspicious destiny......

The First Emperor looked directly at Zhao Si, and it seemed that he could not refuse.

In fact, Zhao Si thought about this problem when he sent seeds.

This thing can't be hidden, Zhao Si will either honestly extinguish his mind of popularizing grain, or this matter will have to be exposed sooner or later.

You can't sell it secretly after planting, right?

In this way, the speed of popularizing grain is too slow, and secondly, it is impossible to hide it from the First Emperor, so it is better to give it to the First Emperor directly.

As for how to explain it...... Zhao Si's choice is to be open and honest.

"Your Majesty may not ......believe it if you say it," Zhao Si pondered for a moment.

"At a very young age, he found that the things he cultivated would grow well, whether it was grain or vegetables.

But I didn't care about it at the time.

The crew can attest to this, and although I haven't told anyone about it, the crew members will remember that what I grow is growing very well. At first, I thought I was taking good care of myself, until I came to Lantian and was ordered to cultivate three new grains. ”

"It's not just the grains that are cultivated in the fields, but also the sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn, the seeds of the three new grains are the ...... that I and the crew found together," Zhao Si pondered for a moment.

"When the minister landed, he said that the yield per mu was 500 catties, but in fact, he did not deceive His Majesty, although the yield of these three crops was high, but it was not as high as several thousand catties.

The crew knows this, but the yield of new grain per mu has skyrocketed, and everyone has been promoted to the third level, and no one has taken this matter out.

It was at that time that I found out about this, so after His Majesty sealed the field, I immediately thought of cultivating the grains myself for experiments.

After all, sweet potatoes and potatoes can't be used as staple food, and it may be possible to save lives and save famines, but compared to grains, they are still a little worse.

The minister thought that since the minister could grow sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn with high yields per mu, there was no reason why he couldn't grow grains with double the yield per mu.

During this time, the ministers had to patrol the fields and cultivate them themselves every day.

The seeds cultivated by the courtiers were also asked for by the king, and the ministers planned to cultivate new seeds when they were planting. ”

Zhao Si looked at the First Emperor seriously and explained the reason.

He was telling the truth, except for the deliberate concealment of the aura of the jade, everything was traceable.

These things can be verified.

The buff effect of the Puyu aura on food can't be hidden, as long as Zhao Si wants to promote new food, he can't hide it.

Zhao Si never doubted the gaze of the First Emperor, it was impossible for the First Emperor not to see the clues, and it was impossible to pretend to be confused or make up stories to fool the past.

Zhao Si didn't think about making up an immortal to teach the law or something...... But Zhao Si doesn't like to play tricks on ghosts and gods, and secondly, it takes countless lies to make up for a lie, which is not a wise move.

What's more, there is a background of the First Emperor going to the sea to seek immortals, in case one day the First Emperor suspects that he has swallowed his elixir privately, wouldn't he want g?

The most important thing is that Zhao Si does not think that he can deceive the First Emperor with lies, and he is not good at lying.

It's better to say it clearly and frankly now.

It's just that the effect of the Puyu aura on people is hidden, which is not lying, and Zhao Si doesn't have too much psychological burden.

……

Zhao Si directly explained the suspicions that the First Emperor had noticed.

The First Emperor didn't expect Zhao Si to be so direct.

Originally, the First Emperor was going to ask Zhao Si, he was ready, if Zhao Si pretended to be confused or prevaricated, he would attack on the spot.

Just kidding, how can anyone cultivate and directly plant all the grains and vegetables? The season of cultivation is not right, and Zhao Si is obviously rushing to keep the seeds when he is planting.

But Zhao Si admitted it......

The reason is as simple as that.

Just if he had nothing to do, he walked around twice, and his seed yield went up.

The First Emperor looked directly at Zhao Si and saw Zhao Si's face full of openness.

The first emperor knew very well that Zhao Si, this kid, had no political experience, and he couldn't be happy and angry, and he couldn't come as soon as he opened his mouth.

Obviously, Zhao Si was telling the truth.

Otherwise, this kid wouldn't be so open now.

And what Zhao Si said, it is not difficult to verify, you only need to ask the crew to make it clear.

Is the yield per mu of sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn because of Zhao Si? Zhao Si used to farm the land, was the yield different?

Even going back even further, Zhao Si didn't know, but the First Emperor knew that Zhao Si was not an orphan.

Ji Chang's family is not a rich family, it is the head of Qian, who has obtained the title of Weimo, Zhao Si, as a young child in the family, when farming, there must be no shortage of fields, and you can know it clearly by checking the taxes paid by Ji Chang's family before.

Although more than ten years have passed, the taxes have been recorded.

All...... It's all traceable.
