In her previous life, Yu Bai was not only miserably killed by her boyfriend and his cheating partner, but her mother, younger brother, and four older brothers also suffered tragic fates, some dying...
As Yu Bai listened to the blueprint described by Fusu, the excitement in his heart caused by the First Emperor's thundering measures had not yet subsided, and he was even more excited by the upcoming agricultural reform.
The light in his eyes almost overflowed with uncontrollable excitement and anticipation.
Seeing her like this, Fusu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, but then changed the subject: "Although the emperor has made a decision, it is early autumn now, so there is no rush to plant crops."
He paused and continued, "The most urgent task is to prepare the farm tools and fertilizers needed for planting."
When Yu Bai heard this, an idea flashed in his mind.
In order to help Fusu better understand modern agriculture, she collected a large number of books on agricultural technology and water conservancy engineering and gave them all to him.
Sure enough, Fusu's next words confirmed her guess.
"The ancient books on agriculture and water conservancy projects that you sent me, my father has already ordered the Minister of Grain to work with the Ministry of the Imperial Household and other relevant government offices to organize personnel to study and translate them day and night. To this end, he has also recruited talented people from the public and selected many skilled craftsmen to supplement the work."
"Over the past period of time," Fusu said, a glint of admiration flashing in his eyes, "those books have been translated one after another. All the relevant technologies that can be applied in our Great Qin have been extracted and carefully taught to those skilled craftsmen."
Yu Bai's almond-shaped eyes lit up slightly as he asked, "How are those craftsmen doing?"
Fusu laughed out loud.
"They were all hungry for advanced knowledge they had never heard of before!"
"Whether it's the hybrid breeding techniques you mentioned, or the sophisticated water conservancy project concepts, or the creation of new agricultural tools, or the formulation of high-efficiency fertilizers, there are people who are dedicated to this work day and night."
"Fertilizer and farm tools are particularly progressing rapidly. They've already started trial production over the past two days. They've even created some relatively simple farm tools and are now in use in small-scale test plots. They're indeed much more practical than the original ones."
"farm tools?"
When Yu Bai heard this, he instantly became alert.
"If you're short on farm tools, I can buy more advanced, more labor-saving ones and send them over! I guarantee they'll be a hundred times better than what they make now!"
This was exactly what Fusu was waiting for, and a relieved smile finally appeared on his handsome face.
"That's why I came to you today."
"Those bicycles, electric bikes, and even some small farm tools you exchanged with me earlier, while sophisticated and practical, were ultimately too few in number. Compared to the vast territory of Great Qin, they were nothing more than a drop in the bucket. They were better than nothing."
His eyes became deep and his tone became heavier.
"The craftsmen of the Qin Dynasty can learn these techniques and gradually master them over time. But right now, what we lack most is not wisdom, but time—the speed that races against time!"
Yu Bai vaguely felt that there was something else behind Fusu's words.
Fusu continued to speak, his voice was not loud, but every word was of great significance.
"In my father's grand blueprint, we are promoting the optimized mutant grains, ensuring that all people in the world have enough to eat, see hope in life, and truly feel a sense of belonging and hope in the Great Qin—this is only the first step."
"Once the people's hearts are stable, the granaries are full, and the national strength is growing, it will be the crucial second step - the transformation of the land and the reform of the entire court structure!"
Land reform!
Political reform!
These eight words exploded in Yu Bai's mind like thunder, shocking her so much that she was a little dazed for a moment.
This is the real big deal!
This is the ambition that can truly change the world!
The next day, Yu Bai got up at dawn.
The First Emperor's determination to "take no time to waste" infected her and made her not want to delay for a moment.
She asked her third brother Yu Nian, borrowed his truck, briefly explained that she was going to the city to buy goods, and then rushed straight to the agricultural supplies market in the city.
When he arrived at the market, Yu Bai did not hesitate and specifically picked out those small handheld agricultural machinery and improved agricultural tools that were light, efficient and durable.
She bought everything she liked, including multifunctional hoes, labor-saving sickles, small rotary plows, and hand-operated seeders.
The vigor of the business was so great that several stall owners thought they had encountered a large purchase from an agricultural cooperative.
They filled a carriage with them, found a secluded and deserted place, and quietly moved these modern farm tools shining with brand new metallic luster into that mysterious space.
This happened three times before she found Fusu and asked him to take her away.
Almost a moment later, far away in the suburbs of Qinjing in the Qin time and space, a huge uproar suddenly broke out in the newly built agricultural experimental base.
When Prince Fusu personally appeared in front of the officials and craftsmen in charge of trial planting, carrying countless sophisticated agricultural tools, the scene was even more shocking than when he had conjured up food, fodder, and military equipment out of thin air at the border!
"My God! These are... such sharp weapons!" An old farmer with white hair and beard touched a modified hoe that was shining with a cold light with his trembling hands.
The angle of the hoe blade and the design of the handle were all full of ingenuity, a level of sophistication he had never seen in his life.
"Sir, could these also be...given by the immortals?" The official in charge of grain sounded a little dazed, for he had witnessed with his own eyes how those farm tools appeared out of thin air.
Fusu stood beside the carriage, his posture as straight as a pine tree. Facing the admiration and inquiry of the crowd, he just smiled faintly and did not comment, which added a bit of mystery to him.
You know, this was the first time that Fusu had so openly made the "immortal things" public, especially at the feet of the emperor and in the heart of the capital.
In the past, the exchange of materials between him and Yu Bai, even the military rations and equipment that were related to the life and death of soldiers at the border, were kept extremely secret and mostly transported secretly to Meng Tian.
Today's event is so grand, and among the onlookers there are many important officials from various departments and spies from aristocratic families. The intention is self-evident.
In fact, Fusu's actions were deliberately instructed by the First Emperor.
At the palace banquet that night, the magic and terror of the "power of the crystal core" had planted the seeds of deep shock and fear in the hearts of all officials.
And today, Fusu's almost "miraculous" method appeared again, which undoubtedly watered the catalyst on the seed, causing the sense of awe to grow wildly and soar into the sky.
What the First Emperor wanted was this ultimate awe!
He wanted everyone to understand that he not only held the thundering power of life and death, but also had help that ordinary people could hardly imagine.
This awe will turn into an invisible driving force, crushing the wait-and-see, hesitation and even evil intentions lurking in the dark.
It cleared the way for him and paved a smoother track for the next land reform and court reform that was destined to shake the foundation of the entire Qin Dynasty.
