Xu Chu cupped his hands in greeting, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment!"
At his command, a craftsman led an ox in.
Xu Chu personally tied the plow to the ox with a rope.
Li Si watched his movements and asked in confusion, "Is this for tilling the land?"
Soon, Xu Chu had everything ready, and then he cracked his whip, and the ox began to pull the plow forward.
As the oxen slowly moved forward, the soil was turned over by the plow.
Li Si looked slightly surprised. "One ox and one man are enough to plow the land?!"
In no time, one-fifth of the entire garden was turned over.
Xu Chu returned to Ying Zheng's side, his expression excited, and said, "This thing is a plow for tilling the land. An ordinary plow requires two oxen and three men, but this plow only requires one ox and one man to till the land!"
Ying Zheng was slightly surprised. "One ox and one man? Wouldn't that increase farming efficiency several times over?"
Feng Quji was also full of surprise. "The Great Qin already has a lot of wasteland that has not been cultivated. In this way, wouldn't a lot of manpower be able to be spared to cultivate that wasteland?"
Li Si was also utterly shocked. "If all those wastelands were planted with grain..."
Ying Zheng's voice was filled with excitement: "The grain production of Great Qin will surely increase many times over!"
Li Si exclaimed excitedly, "Amazing! This thing is truly amazing! I could tell at first glance that it was extraordinary!"
Xu Chu scoffed at this.
Hindsight is 20/20!
Xu Chu looked at Ying Zheng and asked, "Your Majesty, where did you obtain this item?"
Upon hearing this, Li Si was taken aback.
Such a divine object actually came from His Majesty?
His Majesty's methods are truly terrifying!
Ying Zheng frowned and looked at Xu Chu, "You want to do one too?"
Xu Chu shook his head, "No, no, how could this humble subject dare to harbor such wishful thinking!"
Ying Zheng's voice was rather cold, "Then what do you want to ask?"
Xu Chu lowered his head and remained silent.
But I felt a little wronged.
Can't I even ask out of curiosity?
······
Ying Zheng rushed into Consort Shu's palace, shouting, "Good news! Good news!"
Consort Shu is not in the palace.
He walked to the crib and saw the little one blinking his big eyes at him.
Ying Zheng smiled broadly, "Good news, Yu'er!"
The little guy gave him such a powerful treasure, so of course he had to tell him right away.
[Good news, Father! But don't get too complacent, the Qin Dynasty is about to face a great calamity!]
Ying Zheng's expression froze.
Disaster is imminent?!
What's going on?!
Just then, a eunuch came to report, "Your Majesty, Prince Gao has returned!"
Ying Zheng's expression brightened with joy. "Gao'er is back?"
Oh no, we arrived just as we were talking! This is terrible!
Ying Zheng's expression suddenly changed.
Will Gao'er bring disaster upon the Qin Dynasty?
impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
Gao'er is so sensible!
