At this time, Liu Qingyi asked curiously: Your Majesty, the distance between the eastern and western regions of our Great Qin Empire is very long. Even if we transfer food, it will probably take many days. Is it really that easy to solve the problem?
Zhao Xin laughed: It took many days to transport the food, but that was in the past. But now in our Great Qin Empire, we have new means of transportation. It doesn’t take many days at all. It only takes half a day at most to transport the food.
Why be afraid of so many things?
But I also need to find out what's going on with that thing over there.
Why did thousands of acres of fertile land suddenly run out of food? I will not give up until this question is clarified.
Good, that's the only problem they need to solve today.
Zhao Xin was ready to take action almost immediately.
Zhao Xin also called over many ministers, and then they saw that Zhao Xin had indeed obtained some very magical treasures.
These things look a bit like flying birds, but they can transport cargo and humans, and the transport capacity is very large.
The most important thing is that these things can fly in the air. If they fly at this speed, they can indeed transport a lot of things to the western part of the Qin Empire in a short period of time.
Liu Qingyi widened his eyes: Why didn’t our Great Qin Empire have such a rare treasure before? How did it come about now?
Zhao Xin said with a smile: This is one of the treasures of the Mohist school. After the Mohist school joined our Qin Empire Mechanical College, the first invention they presented to us was something like this. It is very convenient.
As a person who has lived in two dimensions, Zhao Xin doesn't know how to describe such an aircraft.
Because this kind of aircraft is not exactly like the airplane he has in mind, but at the same time it is full of scientific flavor.
However, the fuel burning here is not ordinary oil or gasoline. The fuel burning here is actually the bones of ferocious beasts.
In their world, there are many powerful and ferocious beasts. Some of them have strong vitality, and the energy in their bodies is terrifyingly powerful.
But those things live in deep mountains and forests, and are generally difficult to catch!
And even if humans catch these things, it is not easy to defeat them.
These guys can destroy the world at will and even collapse a mountain!
But I have to say that these things are really useful!
Of course, the Mohists did not use the bones of the ferocious beasts they killed, but the bones of ferocious beasts that died naturally, and they were indeed very powerful.
This time, Zhao Xin and his team mobilized more than 100 such aircraft, which could transport more than 200,000 stones of grain, which was enough for many people to get through a difficult period.
Of course, after the grain was delivered, Zhao Xin did not just let it go.
Before anyone knew it, he had quietly run out of the palace again.
Arrived in the western region of the Qin Empire!
The western region of the Qin Empire was originally a very safe hinterland for them.
Because there are deserts all around here, and these deserts are basically impassable.
People from outside had no way to cross the desert, and people from within the Qin Empire had no way to leave from here.
This place is an absolutely safe place!
Moreover, this place is rich in resources and the people have no shortage of food and clothing.
Therefore, Zhao Xin paid less attention to this place, which has always been relatively quiet and peaceful.
But this time when he came here quietly, he found that this area, which was originally a real granary, was now full of people fleeing famine and begging.
People in the richest western continent have all fled to Zhong'an City. After Zhao Xin arrived in Zhong'an City, the mayor of this city is now feeling very troubled.
Because he was a very responsible official, he naturally wanted to appease these fleeing people, or at least let these fleeing people live safely.
However, as the number of people increased, he still felt it was very troublesome, because in order to accommodate so many people, he naturally needed a lot of manpower under his command.
But now he is just a small city lord, how could there be so many people to take care of these things?
Now he felt like he was almost doing the work of several people, but there was still no way out.
Just when this guy was busy running around, a man suddenly came into his mansion.
This is a young man who doesn’t look particularly old, but he has an extraordinary temperament and a faint royal aura.
When Zhao Xin walked in here, he scared the guy named Li Tianqi.
Li Tianqi quickly knelt down in front of Zhao Xin and said: I didn’t know that His Majesty the Emperor was coming and didn’t come to greet him. I ask His Majesty the Emperor to forgive me.
Zhao Xin waved his hand: Get up, don’t worry about the etiquette.
Now I want to ask one thing, that is, how are your arrangements for those people who have fled from the western region?
Li Tianqi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: In the past few days, the entire western region seems to be short of food.
Many people have fled to my side. A rough estimate shows that the number may have reached one million.
But I have too few people here, and I have only deployed half of them now. I am also trying my best to allocate food to the remaining people, so that at least they can barely survive.
However, in the western region, people are still fleeing here from far away.
Your Majesty, to be honest, I can’t hold on any longer!
Zhao Xin nodded: Such a thing happened in our Great Qin Empire, and I, as the emperor, did not notice it. This is my dereliction of duty as an emperor.
Now, leave this matter to me. I don’t believe that there is anything in this world that my Great Qin Empire cannot handle!
Don't worry, the supplies and manpower you need will be here soon, and you will never be left fighting alone!
After hearing these words, Li Tianqi was so excited that he burst into tears!
Because he is already too busy, if more manpower and supplies come now, he will be able to relax a lot.
After Zhao Xin stayed in this place for two days, several Jinyiwei came to his side, and the leader was No. 3.
No. 3 is also a very smart guy, and it seems that he has already investigated the problem clearly.
No. 3, exhausted, said to the emperor: Your Majesty, the sudden shortage of food in the western region is because someone is smuggling food through the desert!
Moreover, those guys have become so ruthless that they have caused a food shortage in the western region. Now the people don’t even have food to eat!
