Chapter 118 What is Electricity?
"28 stones!!!" Li Shangshu couldn't sit still anymore, his legs trembled uncontrollably when he stood up: "King Qin, forgive me for saying this, there are no crops that can reach this output, you must have been cheated."

These words were like a scoop of cold water, directly extinguishing the emperor's excitement. He was stunned, and after thinking about it carefully, he had never heard of any crops that could achieve such an output.

Looking at Yan Qingyao's eyes, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes: "Old Nine, do you know the weight of what you said?"

"My son naturally knows." Yan Qingyao nodded: "Everything my son said is true, and the crops were transported to Beijing three days ago, and a little has been handed over to the imperial dining room at this moment, and you can taste them after a while." arrive.

Father and emperor don't have to worry, I have tasted the crops myself, and I can eat them, but one is enough to fill my stomach. "

Hearing this, the emperor's eyes gradually widened, and the suppressed excitement suddenly surfaced. He kept pacing back and forth, and his voice trembled uncontrollably with excitement: "Okay, okay... don't wait for lunch, now Just present it."

Hearing the words, the eunuch immediately bowed out of the imperial study and went to deliver the meals.

Li Shangshu couldn't help feeling a little dizzy seeing the progress gradually getting out of his control. He wanted to suppress King Qin, so why did it become an invitation for credit?
"Then how is the construction of Dujiangyan?" The emperor looked at Yan Qingyao and asked.

Yan Qingyao answered in an orderly manner: "My father, Dujiangyan has been completed by one-third, and the rest is difficult to implement. It is estimated that it will take two to three years to complete.

Suddenly, the southern half of the plain in the central part of the Central Plains will no longer be plagued by floods, while the northern half will be free from drought.

Jialin River here turns harm into benefit, benefits agriculture and mulberry, and turns the central plain into a "land of fish and rice" where "floods and droughts follow people, don't know hunger, and there is no shortage of time". "

"Hahahaha, yes, not bad." The emperor nodded with a big smile, affirming his achievements, "Speaking of which, your friend is pretty good. If I remember correctly, his surname is Lu?"

Seeing Yan Qingyao nodding his head, he said: "Since you have done such a thing to benefit the people's livelihood, it can be said that the merits are beyond the heavens, then give her Licheng as you mentioned."

The emperor's eyelids were slightly closed, and he also knew that Licheng was an abandoned city, and it could be said to be an innocuous place in the Great Xia Kingdom, and there was no difference between giving it or not.

Of course, it was Licheng, a dead city. If it was another place, let alone a city, he wouldn't give it to a town.

"However, since ancient times, women are not allowed to engage in politics. This is an iron law that has been passed down from generation to generation." The emperor glanced at Yan Qingyao, and saw that his face did not change at all, but the topic changed:
"But I think she has made great contributions, so I bestowed the Sima of Zhongzhou, the sixth rank, and gave the official uniform and official seal. I can open a mansion and build teeth, and recruit three thousand soldiers. Sincerely."

"Thank you, Father." Yan Qingyao folded his hands and bowed in salute. At the end, he said: "Father, I have something to ask."

The emperor frowned, and a glint of darkness flashed in his eyes: "Say."

"Father also knows how dilapidated Licheng is, and there is no way to pay taxes. I also hope that Father will exempt Licheng from taxes."

"Yes." The emperor waved his hand and approved it immediately.

Heh, it's just an abandoned city, how much tax can it get?

One hundred Wen, or two hundred Wen?

He didn't care at all, as long as Licheng didn't ask the court for money.

"Your Majesty, I think that..." Li Shangshu stepped forward, he still wanted to rescue him: "This Licheng..."

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, and a wave of wia that belonged exclusively to the emperor suddenly radiated out. Li Shangshu trembled and didn't dare to continue talking.

Emperor Yantian withdrew his gaze, "I just gave Licheng to the Lu family, and didn't say that I would give it to the King of Qin as a fiefdom. Li Shangshu, if you have any objections, how about I give Licheng to you?"

"No, no, I have no objection." Li Shangshu quickly refused.

Just kidding, the ghostly place in Licheng can't be built for him with a hundred thousand taels of silver, let alone barbarians and Tartars who attack from time to time, ghosts want to go there.

The one who danced the most didn't dare to dance, and the others didn't speak from the beginning to the end, as if it had nothing to do with them.

"Your Majesty, the meal is ready." At this moment, the eunuch came in and said.

Yan Tian nodded, and the eunuch went out and said, "Chuan Shan."

"Yes."

The maids were ordered to file in with food boxes and began to serve dishes.

With the opening of the food box, a strong fragrance immediately filled the air, and the ministers' eyes widened immediately. What kind of fragrance is this, and I have never smelled it before! ! !
In the corner, Yan Qingyao twitched her fingers slightly, and the corners of her mouth raised a slight arc, which was a little thought-provoking.

"What does she think of our dwarves?" When Bian Wenrong heard Bian Chongquan's question, he immediately thought of the current situation of the dwarves.

The situation of the dwarves is actually very bad. Their ancestors were actually very normal people, but their short stature was caused by a genetic mutation.

And because of his short stature, he caused too many stares and insults. Being beaten is a common occurrence, and it is inevitable that he will not be able to eat or find a job.

Even if someone gives them work, they will suffer a lot of unfair treatment, and even more they will not be paid, so they have to leave, or they can only starve to death.

There are even many dwarves who were kicked out by their families or thrown away when they were babies. When they met, they would pick them up and raise them. Over time, more and more dwarves gathered together and formed a tribe.

In order to make a living, they had to learn skills by stealing from their teachers, and then redoubled their efforts to improve themselves. Only then did they gradually acquire more and more skills, especially forging!
But it's a pity that people only value their skills, and they still treat them the same as before——completely despise them.

Thinking of this, Bian Wenrong couldn't help sighing: "The young master also took a fancy to our skills. But don't worry,"

Seeing his face change slightly, he quickly explained: "Although she is interested in our skills, she treats us very well. And..."

After a pause, he said with a wry smile: "Her skills are no worse than ours. If you don't believe me, just ask Bian Sheng and Bian Ya."

"Really?" Bian Zhongquan frowned and turned to look at Bian Ya.

Bian Ya nodded hurriedly: "Helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon, sodium, magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus, sulfur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium, vanadium, titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, copper, cobalt, nickel..."

"..." Bian Zhongquan listened to her recite the periodic table of elements with a dazed expression, feeling... Isn't this girl stupid?
"Father, what kind of eyes do you have?" Bian Ya rolled her eyes angrily: "The one I memorized is called the Periodic Table of Elements, and the young master said it was going to teach me how to make some batteries. Understand.

That’s right, that’s right, that’s right... Oh, anyway, two wires are used to connect a fruit, and then a small windmill is connected, and the windmill turns. The little master said it’s called chemical power generation.Dad, what is electricity? ? ? "

Bian Chongquan, "..." What the hell knows what electricity is.
