Chapter 9: The Immortal's Gift



Meng Yi also hurried forward and excitedly said to Qin Shi Huang, "Your Majesty, how much instant noodles and self-heating rice do you have? Can we have enough for the soldiers at the front?"

Ying Zheng raised his hand, signaling everyone to remain calm.

"It's a long story. I met an immortal tonight, and he bestowed these things upon my Great Qin, hoping that it would prosper."

"So, these things are naturally for the soldiers, but the current production is very small, and it is currently impossible to supply them all."

"However, I hope to hand these things over to each of you. You will research the method of making them. As long as you succeed, then the entire Qin Dynasty, whether it is the common people or the soldiers, will be able to eat well and live a good life!"

Everyone stood up, bowed to Qin Shi Huang, and responded loudly and excitedly: "Yes!"

Ying Zheng began to assign tasks to everyone.

"Meng Yi, you're responsible for the potatoes!"

"Wang Ben, lead the research on instant noodles."

"Zhao Gao, you will control the refined salt market."

"Li Si, I'll give you the rice and the self-heating rice. In a dream, an immortal told me that the highest yield per mu of rice in their area can reach 1,000 kilograms. I'm still not sure how it can achieve such a high output value, but I'll give you all this rice for now."

"Yes!" Li Si was very touched by Qin Shihuang's trust.

There was a burning fire in his eyes. He had to figure out as quickly as possible why the rice could heat up by itself. He wanted to be the first among them.

Zhao Gao had the same idea as him. He was already thinking about how to make refined salt visible to the public.

After giving instructions to the first four people, Qin Shihuang turned his attention to Fusu.

He spoke in a tangled voice: "Fusu...you..."

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and made a decision.

"Fusu, starting tomorrow you will stay with Li Si. You don't need to go to Chunyu Yue's place."

Fusu was puzzled. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Sir, Su..."

Before he could finish the rest of his words, Qin Shi Huang slapped the chopping board in front of him and spoke loudly.

"I have made my decision, just listen carefully."

Fusu: ....

Why do I feel that adults are becoming more arbitrary?

But he couldn't refute Qin Shihuang, so he planned to meet with Qin Shihuang alone and discuss the matter with him privately.

He and Li Si have completely different views on things.

How can we stay together for a long time?

Li Si was the representative of the Legalists, but Fusu received Confucian education since childhood.

The collision between these two people is simply a duel between two major schools.

After Qin Shihuang had planned everything for tonight, he let everyone go back.

Fusu did not leave. He followed Qin Shihuang to the outside of his bedroom and wanted to meet him.

Qin Shihuang did not give him this opportunity and directly ordered him to be driven away.

Fusu returned to his bedroom with a troubled heart...

...

After dawn, Li Si, Zhao Gao, Meng Yi, Wang Ben, and Fusu began to work against the clock in accordance with Qin Shihuang's instructions.

Meng Yi and his men found several pieces of land, each with different levels of fertility.

After finding a good place, Meng Yi asked his men to cut the potatoes into pieces and wait for them to germinate and be sown.

Wang Ben took his soldiers and found several chefs from restaurants, and locked them up in his mansion to study the principles of instant noodles all night.

Zhao Gao found a few trusted subordinates, gave them a few instructions, and asked them to summon salt merchants from all over the country to come to Xianyang.

As for Fusu and Li Si, they stared at each other and neither of them gave in.

There was basically no progress in the morning.

Daqin is carrying out research activities in full swing.

On the other side, Zhang Yuan was lying in the room and snoring.

A group of old men and women downstairs pointed at the sign at the door and whispered to each other.

"This Xiao Yuan opened a supermarket so quickly?"

"Who says it's not? When I passed by last night, I saw that his supermarket had everything."

"It's already ten o'clock, isn't Xiao Yuan opening the store yet? Kids these days... it's hard to say. I don't think his supermarket will be open for more than a few days. It's probably going to be closed down."

"Oh, stop talking. We're all neighbors. We should just take good care of him. This kid must have encountered something to get him back from the big city. It must have been a tough journey."

The neighbors chatted for a while outside Zhang Yuan’s supermarket and then left.

It was around three o'clock in the afternoon when Zhang Yuan lazily got up from the bed.

The feeling of sleeping until waking up naturally is really delicious.

Looking back on my previous life now, it seems like it was wasted.

As soon as Zhang Yuan woke up, the system started to complain to him.

[Host, host, your neighbor just said across the street that your supermarket is going to close down. I'm so angry!]

Zhang Yuan guessed what happened just by hearing this sentence.

I guess the neighbors are free again.

He stretched and reassured the system: "007, you are a mature system now. Don't worry about what others say. Our supermarket is just so awesome. When it gets bigger and bigger, won't they realize they are wrong?"

007 doesn't understand people's emotions, he just simply doesn't like people saying bad things about his host.

After hearing what Zhang Yuan said, 007 decided to urge the host to complete the transaction quickly and make the supermarket bigger and stronger.

Let those people never say nonsense again.

[007 Got it, Host, you better hurry up and get some more stock! The warehouse is out of stock!]

Zhang Yuan touched his nose and chuckled, "No hurry, no hurry. Let me eat first and clean up."

[Host! To grow bigger and stronger! Go out and stock up! !]
