Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 385 The people decided to plant corn and potatoes! Mission completed, Lin Xuan gets rewarded!
When the old man heard what the businessman said, he looked at other people again.

At this time, there was a hint of hesitation on the faces of other pedestrians, and the old man knew it very well.

Because of what the merchant had just said, these passers-by thought that the cost of making a curved plow must be very expensive.

"Fellow villagers, the curved plow was presented to Your Majesty by Prince Fusu."

"The villagers know what kind of person Prince Fusu is. Prince Fusu has always cared about the people."

"Don't worry, folks. The price of making a curved plow is very cheap."

"The iron plowshare of a curved plow can be made in any blacksmith shop in the Great Qin."

"Fellow villagers can now use cheap curved plows to cultivate the land."

The old man looked at the people passing by and told them the price of making a curved plow.

After hearing the old man's words, the city gate became quiet again, and soon some passers-by reacted with excitement on their faces.

The merchant's words just now made them worried. The price of making a curved plow must be very high.

When they heard the old man say that the price of making a curved plow was very cheap, they felt relieved.

"Then I'm relieved. With the curved plow, I can plant corn and potatoes without any worries."

"I can't wait to plant corn and potatoes now so that I can see the ripe corn and potatoes as soon as possible."

Some pedestrians had smiles on their faces; now they had nothing to worry about.

The old man looked at the pedestrians around him with smiles on their faces, and his mission for the day was completely completed.

He also told these passers-by about the curved plow.

Other cities were told that soon the people of Daqin would be able to build a curved plow of their own.

Fusu Mansion in Xianyang City!
In the garden, Lin Xuan was reading the book in his hand.

"Ding!"

"The people of Daqin accepted two new kinds of food, corn and potatoes, and Daqin became stronger and more powerful."

"The reward has been distributed, please check the host!"

The voice of the system came into Lin Xuan's mind again. Hearing this voice, Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment.

He reacted quickly, with a smile on his face.

The system now gives him a reward, which means that the First Emperor has posted notices in every city in Daqin.

When it comes to corn, potatoes and curved plows, the people of Qin will certainly be very happy to know this news.

Choosing to grow corn and potatoes, no one would wish they had more food.

People planted corn and potatoes, and once they matured they would have more food.

This is a good thing for Daqin. If people have food in their homes, Daqin will become stronger.

The system also knew this and gave itself a reward.

When Lin Xuan thought of this, a smile appeared on his face, and his actions were not in vain.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Lin Xuan clicked on the reward given to him by the system in his mind.

A piece of white paper appeared in front of Lin Xuan, with a lot of words written on it.

"Ding!"

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the gunpowder refining process."

When Lin Xuan heard the voice of the system, a smile appeared on his face.

After waiting for so long, he finally got what he wanted most.

The Qin Dynasty unified the six kingdoms, and there were many undeveloped resources in the Qin Dynasty.

Lin Xuan had thought about refining gunpowder before. Once he could refine gunpowder, he could develop many powerful weapons.

With gunpowder weapons, the national strength of Qin will become stronger.

When encountering an enemy, it will inflict greater damage to the enemy.

It will also reduce our own casualties.

However, the system has not given him gunpowder rewards, so Lin Xuan can only give up this idea temporarily.

Today, I finally have the technology to refine gunpowder, and next I can make use of the resources within the territory of Daqin.

Refined gunpowder and then developed weapons that used it.

Lin Xuan picked up the white paper in front of him, on which was written the process required to refine gunpowder.

Soon Lin Xuan wrote down everything on the white paper. He folded the paper with the process of refining gunpowder and put it into his sleeve.

He was thinking about who to send to refine the gunpowder, as he couldn't do it alone.

Soon Lin Xuan's eyes lit up and he thought of the Mohist school.

After the Mohist School built the ship, they did not build anything else for the time being.

The Mohists were good at mechanical engineering, even though they did not know how to refine gunpowder.

I was able to understand it quickly, and I also learned the process of refining gunpowder myself.

Lin Xuan believed that the Mohists could do it and refine gunpowder.

With the Mohists refining gunpowder, Lin Xuan doesn't have to do it himself.

The Mohists were able to produce the gunpowder they needed.

"Tap Tap!"

Just as Lin Xuan was about to get up and go to the Mo family in person, he heard hurried footsteps.

Lin Xuan looked towards the entrance of the garden and Fusu walked in with a smile on his face.

Looking at Fusu with a smile on his face, Lin Xuan understood why Fusu came.

Fusu came to see him to tell him that the people of Qin had accepted corn and potatoes and were ready to plant them.

"teacher!"

Fusu walked into the garden, looked at Lin Xuan and bowed.

"Master!"

Lin Xuan stood up, looked at Fusu, and bowed in return.

"Good news, teacher. Notices have been posted in all the cities of Daqin."

"The people of Daqin already knew that the Xiongnu had been driven out of the plains, and they also knew about the two new grains, corn and potatoes."

"Now the people of Daqin are preparing to grow two new kinds of food, corn and potatoes."

"The people are all building the curved plow that the teacher drew."

"When the corn and potatoes planted by the people mature, every household in Daqin will have more food."

Fusu sat down and his face showed excitement after he finished speaking.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Fusu's words, and he was also very happy to hear Fusu's excited voice.

"This is indeed good news. With the planting of corn and potatoes, people no longer have to worry about having no food."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu and expressed his thoughts.

"This is all thanks to the teacher. The corn and potatoes were also provided by the teacher."

"There is also a curved plow for ploughing the land. If it weren't for the teacher's idea of ​​the curved plow,

"Even if people want to grow corn and potatoes, they are powerless because arable land is a big problem."

Fusu said this, looking at his teacher with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

His teacher played an indispensable role in the Qin Dynasty's present status.

The teacher solved many problems for him and his father, and did many good things for the people.

"You are too polite, sir. I just did what I thought."

Lin Xuan said this with a smile on his face.

Making the Qin Dynasty strong can not only gain rewards from the system but also allow the people to live a good life.

Lin Xuan was still very happy in his heart. This was two good things for him.

Fusu nodded slightly when he heard what his teacher Lin Xuan said, and didn't say anything else.

He knew his teacher well, and his teacher did not take these things too seriously. "The student came to see the teacher today, in addition to telling the teacher that the people are ready to plant corn and potatoes."

"I have another good news to tell you, teacher. Meng Tian has sent his soldiers back to Xianyang City."

"Father also asked me to go to his study, and I also saw the soldiers sent back by Meng Tian in his study."

"The soldier said the expedition was a complete success."

"General Meng Tian led tens of thousands of troops to conquer two kingdoms and a tribe, and also brought back resources."

"The ship we were on could no longer hold all the resources, and the army had been fighting for days."

"General Meng Tian and his army have started returning to Xianyang City by ship and will arrive there tomorrow."

Fusu said with excitement on his face.

When Lin Xuan heard Fusu's words, a smile appeared on his face.

Such a great victory in Meng Tian’s first expedition can truly be considered a triumphant return.

In this way, it would be impossible for these two kingdoms and one tribe to invade the Qin Dynasty.

The potential enemies of the Qin Dynasty must be suppressed first.

"General Meng Tian has returned triumphantly. This is indeed good news."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu and a smile appeared on his face.

Meng Tian supported Fusu, and the more military achievements Meng Tian made, the more beneficial it would be for Fusu.

Fusu smiled when he heard what his teacher Lin Xuan said, "Teacher, you don't know something."

"The soldier sent by General Meng Tian to tell Father the battle report mentioned that the key to this war was the ship we were on."

"There are tens of thousands of soldiers in this army, but many of them don't have any water skills."

"General Meng Tian was initially worried that these soldiers might have physical problems because they couldn't swim."

"Soon General Meng Tian no longer had this worry, thanks to the ship that the teacher drew."

"Walking on water is extremely fast and very stable. Many soldiers feel like they are walking on land."

"When the ship approached the enemy's kingdom and tribe, the enemy's soldiers also thought about destroying the ship."

"It's just that this plan failed, teacher, the ship you drew."

"The enemy's spears and weapons were incapable of damaging the outer layer of the ship."

"General Meng Tian led his army to defeat the enemy and continued on his way with the resources on the ship."

"My father was also very happy when he heard the soldiers mention the ship."

Fusu looked at Lin Xuan and told him about the excellent performance of the ship.

When Lin Xuan heard Fusu's words, his eyes lit up. He was happy but also thought of a question.

The enemies of the Qin Dynasty, the Huns, and the Baiyue people in the land of Baiyue have been driven away.

The remaining potential enemies need to be conquered by ship.

Since this is the case, the ship is very important for the subsequent expedition, and I have just obtained gunpowder.

If the Mohists were allowed to refine gunpowder, they could create cannons that could be installed on ships.

Use cannons to fire gunpowder, and any enemy who wants to get close to the ship will suffer damage from the gunpowder.

In this way, the ship will become safer and the enemy will not be able to get close at all.

Lin Xuan was very happy thinking of this, the gunpowder would take effect so soon.

"Teacher, what are you thinking about?"

Fusu looked at his teacher with a hint of doubt on his face.

As soon as he finished speaking, the teacher fell into deep thought.

Lin Xuan reacted to Fusu's words and a smile appeared on his face: "I didn't think anything!"

Lin Xuan felt that it would be better not to tell Fusu about the gunpowder for the time being. After all, it was still a question whether his idea could be realized.

If it was not achieved, Fusu would surely be very disappointed.

Fusu nodded slightly when he heard what his teacher Lin Xuan said, and said, "Tomorrow General Meng Tian will lead the army back to Xianyang City."

"Father has already told me to take the ministers with me to welcome General Meng Tian back in triumph tomorrow."

"What do you need, teacher, that students should pay attention to?"

Fusu looked at his teacher Lin Xuan and told him his problem.

Tomorrow he will go to welcome Meng Tian on behalf of his father, and other ministers will focus their attention on him.

Fusu was worried that he might have done something wrong and that other ministers would see him and report it to his father.

After all, there are still some ministers in the court who are dissatisfied with him.

Part of the reason why he came to see the teacher today was that he wanted the teacher to tell him what he needed to pay attention to.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly when he heard Fusu's words and said, "Your Majesty also asked Prince Fusu to welcome General Meng Tian and his army who returned triumphantly from the land of Baiyue last time."

"Your Majesty is very satisfied with your performance."

"This time, young master, just like last time, keep a normal mind."

"Don't be nervous and stay calm. When other ministers see you so calm, they will have no excuse to say anything."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu and expressed his thoughts.

"The teacher said it, and the students remembered it."

"Tomorrow the students will remain calm and will not be nervous at all."

Fusu looked at Lin Xuan and nodded slightly.

"There is another thing that needs your attention. This time, General Meng Tian has returned triumphantly."

"The ship carries a large amount of resources, and the soldiers who went out to fight must be very tired after several major battles."

"It would be very difficult for these soldiers to move the resources off the ship."

"If other ministers saw this, those who are dissatisfied with you might impeach you to Your Majesty."

"They say that you are not considerate of the soldiers and let the soldiers who have fought in several wars carry resources."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu and told him what he thought was the problem.

Fusu was stunned for a moment when he heard what his teacher Lin Xuan said, but he quickly reacted with a solemn look on his face.

"The teacher is right. This time the resources are loaded on a ship instead of a carriage."

"The students really didn't expect that soldiers would be needed to carry resources off the ship."

Fusu looked at his teacher Lin Xuan without any excuse.

If his teacher hadn't reminded him, Fusu would not have thought of this detail.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Fusu's words and said, "It's not too late for you to know now, young master."

"After all, General Meng Tian wants to return with his army by ship tomorrow."

"Sir, you can go to the army in Xianyang City and dispatch some soldiers."

"Let these soldiers go with you tomorrow to welcome General Meng Tian and his army."

"When we get the resources off the ship, have these soldiers move them there."

"This way, the army under Meng Tian will not need to move the resources on the ship, and those ministers who are dissatisfied with the prince will have no reason to impeach him."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu and told him a solution to the problem.

Fusu's eyes lit up when he heard Lin Xuan's words. He thought this method was very good.

It was very easy for him to dispatch soldiers from the Xianyang city army.

By letting these soldiers carry the resources on the ship, the problem that was unfavorable to them was solved.

"I will remember what the teacher said. I will go find Meng Fang in a moment."

"Have Meng Fang dispatch some soldiers and have them go with the students tomorrow to welcome General Meng Tian and his army back in triumph."

Fusu said this with a smile on his face.
