Primary school students of all worlds

Wang Quan said without hesitation, "We have to prove that rice is indeed a universal commodity in the multiverse. Only then will I start excavating the warehouse in large quantities. So - Lord God, teleport us and the fifty-two bags of rice. This time, use random teleportation."

As soon as he finished speaking, the beam of light descended again, covering everyone and bringing the primary school students to a bustling modern metropolis.

Looking at the big screens everywhere, the new energy electric cars speeding by on the road, and the men and women coming and going on the road all dressed in fashionable clothes, Wang Quan secretly exclaimed that he had come to the wrong place -

No matter how you look at it, this place is a big city in a developed country. People here should have had enough food and clothing for a long time. I'm afraid I won't be able to sell the rice I brought.

As I was thinking, the sounds around me gradually quieted down, replaced by the sound of inexplicably rapid breathing...

Wang Quan looked ahead in confusion, only to see a group of men, women, young and old surrounding him and his companions.

"Rice... Is there rice here?"

Uncontrollable exclamations of surprise echoed one after another: "Why is there so much rice 'left over' here?! Is it all from Fukushima?"

"This isn't from Fukushima! My Geiger counter isn't going off!"

Upon hearing this, the crowd could no longer remain calm and rushed forward. In just a moment, the 52 bags of rice brought by Wang Quan fell into the hands of others. Illya and Lihua, who intended to maintain order, were squeezed out by the crowd.

"Oh no, classmate Wang Quan! There are too many people!"

Lihua stared in amazement as the two middle-aged women in front of her worked together to lift a bag of rice. However, this was not friendly cooperation, but a fierce struggle between the two sides, each holding one side of the rice bag, and there was also verbal abuse that made the elementary school student blush.

Such scenes are everywhere, as if people have been hungry for a long time and are fighting with others for the limited amount of rice without any regard for their dignity.

"Everyone calm down!"

Wang Quan quickly spoke up to persuade them, "This isn't just ordinary rice! It's very expensive, 500 yen per pound... or even 1000 yen per pound!"

Looking at Wang Quan's loud mouth, Illya said awkwardly, "I really don't feel any justice at all. I only feel immorality, Mr. Wang Quan."

"1000 yen per pound?!"

People looked at Wang Quan in disbelief, and then the scramble became even more intense. Who could have thought that rice could be so cheap these days!

A burly guy from the gym even picked up three bags of rice by himself. Not yet satisfied, he brought in three more, bringing the total to six bags. Facing criticism from neighbors, he sneered and struck a muscular pose, saying, "Come on, fight! If you win, I'll give you a bag of rice!"

This is too much...

Wang Quan stared in amazement at the big man showing off his muscles. From the fullness of his muscles, it was clear that the people here were not suffering from famine at all. But if that was the case, why would they value this ordinary rice so much?

What made the primary school students even more stunned was that, faced with the naked threat of the big man, the surrounding neighbors did not show any fear at all, and rushed forward directly. The strong man was soon knocked to the ground with his two fists, and the six bags of rice behind him were snatched away. The victors came to Wang Quan with red faces, threw a stack of money in front of him, said proudly that there was no need for change, and then left.

The five elementary school students were all holding a large stack of money in a daze. Meiyou, who was standing nearby, even murmured to Wang Quan, "I want to apologize to you, Wang Quan."

"Well, why are you apologizing?"

"Because I thought you were wasting the potential of the Lord God Space."

Miyu looked at the circular mark in Wang Quan's palm, which represented the main god's true form, with a complicated expression: "Observing countless existing parallel worlds and traveling between them at will—in my common sense, this is the magic that countless magicians dream of, a second magic that can observe and interfere with parallel worlds. You actually used it to resell food. The magicians will cry and beat the ground and cry!"

Miyu shook her head and said, "But I think as long as Wang Quan is happy, I'll just keep silent. But now..."

Looking at the muscular man pounding the ground in frustration over all the rice being snatched away, Miyu murmured, "Maybe you're using it right?"

Elementary School Students and the Final-Year Producers: Chapter 268: The Empress

The idea of ​​issuing its own currency, Justice Points, backed by rice, flour, grain, and oil was indeed feasible, but Wang Quan soon realized that doing so seemed...

Not very just?

Especially after seeing a fat and big-eared lord offering them a large amount of rice just to buy the "unique delicacy" Kangshuaibo beef noodles that the world had never seen before, the elementary school students realized even more deeply how evil justice points were... After all, the hungry peasants howling outside the lord's house were enough to explain everything.

After kicking the lord and sending him flying out of the castle, everyone quickly distributed the rice to the farmers who had been plundered by the lord, and then ran back to the main god space with a guilty conscience.

"This is like flying a super high-tech spaceship to another planet to steal farmers' food. It's too low in every sense of the word."

Listening to Wang Quan's sigh, Lihua blinked and said, "But even the Emperor of the Universe is willing to accompany us to wage war against higher-dimensional creatures just to grow five centimeters taller. Comparing the two, we're actually not that bad."

"Hmm...it seems so. I feel much better when I think about it this way."

Wang Quan scratched his head and said, "But the problem remains. Rice, flour, grain, and oil must no longer be used as resources to endorse Justice Points. Otherwise, those ancient feudal lords will definitely target the poor peasants to obtain our goods, just like what happened to Bretonnia we just encountered."

"How about giving up rice, flour, grain, and oil and using resources like oil as the base currency?"

Meiyou suggested to Wang Quan, "These can also be converted into energy resources, but oil can't be eaten. Using it as a backing for currency has some limitations, but this way we don't have to worry about those ancient lords and kings exploiting the people and confiscating their rice to trade with us."

"Is it backed by oil?"

Wang Quan said in a strange tone, "I feel like this makes Justice Points even more unethical—but what you said makes sense. Let's give it a try."

After that, Wang Quan raised his hand again: "Lord God, you can send us to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, after the sweet potatoes are ripe."

The Lord God did not say anything to refuse, but cast a beam of light as before, sending the elementary school students to their destination again.

"Uh... I have a bad feeling."

Li Xiaolang's mouth twitched as he looked at the exquisite pavilions and towers around him, as well as all kinds of exotic flowers and plants with fragrant flowers. There were koi in the ponds around the pavilions and lotus flowers floating on the water, which gave everyone a damn sense of déjà vu.

As expected, the next moment there were sudden exclamations. A group of women wearing exquisite clothes and precious jewelry exclaimed at the sudden appearance of the elementary school students and retreated in panic. Only a young girl who was only a few years older than Wang Quan and others was standing there, staring at Wang Quan and others intently.

"You are……"

Wang Quan looked at the girl in bewilderment, while the girl bowed respectfully to the elementary school students: "Talented lady Wu Zhao greets all the immortals."

After saying that, the girl raised her head, her eyes filled with excitement as she looked at the immortals who had presented immortal treasures to His Majesty a few months ago and then disappeared without a trace in public. In order to be able to meet these immortals again, His Majesty built an extremely luxurious immortal platform in the best location of the palace, hoping to see the immortals as soon as possible. But who would have thought that the immortals looked down on the immortal platform at all, and appeared in front of her again!

Well, this girl can indeed be considered the emperor of the Tang Dynasty...

Wang Quan scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Sorry, we were planning to go see the emperor, but we accidentally took the wrong path."

Wu Zhao, her eyes sparkling, stared intently at the five immortal children before her. "Can immortals... even make mistakes? Then why do immortals seeking the Emperor repeatedly make the mistake of meeting me?"

“We really took the wrong path.”

Wang Quan shook his head and said, "Because now is not the right time. Let's wait a few more years. After a few years, it will be the right time."

After saying that, he led the primary school students towards the sword-wielding guards, leaving the girl behind him covering her chest and staring blankly at the immortals in the distance.

What does it mean that I'll be on the right track in a few years? Did this mean the immortal accidentally revealed a secret?

The Qianniu Guards armed with swords did not make things difficult for the elementary school students and others as they did before. Instead, they received the immortal with the highest courtesy. A red carpet was laid on the ground, and gongs and drums cleared the way, leading Wang Quan and others to the presence of Emperor Li Shimin.

At the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin looked at the five children in front of him with excitement and said loudly, "My fellow immortals, it's been a long time since we last met."

"Your Majesty, how are my sweet potatoes doing lately?"

"Okay! Great!"

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Those immortal treasures were handed over to the most experienced farmers in the Tang Dynasty. They were carefully cared for according to the farming manual left by the immortals. After a few months, it turned out just as the immortals said, with an annual yield of over 4000 catties per mu!"

At this point, Li Shimin couldn't help but pat the dragon throne: "With this thing, the people of the Tang Dynasty will no longer have to worry about hunger!"

The ministers in the Taiji Palace all knelt on the ground and shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live the Tang Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, you think too much."

Wang Quan shook his head, pouring cold water on Li Shimin's high spirits. "Besides sweet potatoes, I have many more high-yield crops to offer to Your Majesty, including corn, potatoes, and hybrid rice. However, while these grains will satisfy the people, they will also cause a drastic increase in the population of the Tang Dynasty. At a certain stage, everyone will still be hungry."

"..."

"What the immortal said is absolutely true."

Li Shimin sighed and said, "I was so overjoyed to see over 4000 kilograms of sweet potatoes per acre that I forgot such a simple truth. If this single grain could end hunger and thirst in the world, then my throne would be somewhat redundant. Even so, the Tang Dynasty's reign will indeed be extended by a thousand years thanks to this treasure."

Hearing this, Wang Quan looked away, feeling rather guilty. Extending the Tang Dynasty by a thousand years was just a way for merchants to boast about their wares. Could the emperor really believe it? He himself had no idea how many more years he could extend the Tang Dynasty...

After saying this, Li Shimin waved his hand, looked at Wang Quan proudly and said, "The immortal must have come this time to ask for a reward. Please feel free to ask. As long as I can give it, the immortal will accept any amount he wants."

"Then I will not be polite, Your Majesty."

Wang Quan pondered for a moment and raised five fingers: "I don't want more than the sweet potato I'm offering you. Your Majesty, just give me ten tons of oil."

After saying this, he looked away guiltily: "Of course, if Your Majesty feels embarrassed, eight tons is not impossible."

Elementary School Students and Productive Persons: Chapter 269: Industrialization of the Tang Dynasty

After hearing the immortals' request, Li Shimin looked embarrassed.

He had already made preparations. No matter what the immortal wanted from him, he would agree to it. Gold, silver, treasures, beauties, and even land were not a problem, but oil?

"What is this? I have never heard of it."

"Petroleum is liquid fossil fuel—well, maybe it wasn't called petroleum at the time. Let me describe it to Your Majesty."

Wang Quan gestured and said, "What I need is a black liquid. This substance is less dense than water and can float on water. Moreover, this black liquid is very viscous. Your Majesty, have you thought of it?"

Li Shimin was speechless for a moment, then looked at the ministers in the Taiji Palace and asked, "My dear ministers, does anyone recognize this object?"

The ministers discussed this for a while. After a while, Wei Zheng took a few steps forward and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I remember there is an item in Gaonu County that should be what the immortals are looking for. It's called Lithium Water."

"Limewater?"

"Yes, this lithosphere water is greasy and floats on water. It is also like lacquer. If you use it to light a lamp, it will be extremely bright."

Wei Zheng looked at Wang Quan and the others intently and said, "Perhaps this is what the immortals are looking for?"

"That's the correct description."

Wang Quan nodded in understanding: "This petrified water is what we desire."

Li Shimin was stunned and said, "Since this item is favored by the immortal, it must be extraordinary. Why have I never heard of it?"

"Your Majesty, this petrified water is normally invisible."

Wang Quan said to Li Shimin, "This object is buried deep underground. We need some means and the right tools to dig it out."

Hearing this, Li Shimin said with great interest: "Then I must ask the immortal, what is the magical use of this stone fat water?"

"It's very useful."

Wang Quan gestured with his hands and said, "This thing can be used in industry to drive various machines—er, or should I say, drive various mechanical devices, which would be more understandable to Your Majesty? These mechanical devices are extremely mysterious. For example, if it were made into a mechanical carriage, it could carry people a thousand miles a day."

Li Shimin said thoughtfully: "But this thousand-mile horse is also OK."

"Then, Your Majesty, can this Thousand Mile Horse be mass-produced? My mechanical carriage can be mass-produced by craftsmen like a crossbow, and then used by ordinary people in large quantities. As long as there are enough materials, as many as you want can be produced."

"Mass-produced Maxima..."

After a brief moment of contemplation, Li Shimin's breathing quickened. "If that's the case, I will lead this swift and intelligent cavalry to personally conquer the Western Regions, seal the Wolf's Lair, and eliminate all worries on the grasslands!"

"Furthermore, this lithosphere water can also allow the mechanical bird to carry people high into the sky, even flying directly from the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty to Your Majesty's Chang'an."

"what!"

Li Shimin gasped, "Isn't this ability to ride on clouds and mist only wielded by immortals? Could it be that these immortals rely on this asphalt water to achieve this ability?"

"This is not..."

Wang Quan glanced at Li Xiaolang and said, "Immortals cultivate their elixir by drawing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into their dantian. This lithosphere water uses industrial methods to allow every mortal to soar through the clouds and even reach the bright moon."

"Above the bright moon..."

Li Shimin's face was extremely shaken. "This stone fat water can actually reach the moon and grasp the nine heavens? What is the use of my eyeballs? Why is such a fairy treasure placed in Gaonu County, and I don't know where it is?"

“It’s normal not to know.”

Wang Quan shook his head and said, "We're not in England, where oil and coal are piled on the surface and can be dug out with a hoe. Here, oil and coal are buried deep underground. Unless someone knew in advance that oil and coal could be used for industrial purposes, no one would go to such great lengths to dig them out."

After that, Wang Quan took out five books and said to Li Shimin again, "These basic books all involve the wonderful uses of industry, from the steam engine to the third industrial revolution. I present them to Your Majesty."

Li Shimin had never expected that the immortal would offer the book to him before he even asked for it. He immediately felt uneasy, his breathing rapid. "This industry is undoubtedly the teachings of a sage. Is the immortal planning to give it to me just like that?"

"Yes."

Wang Quan nodded and said, "After all, I intend to establish a long-term cooperation with Your Majesty. Improving the industrialization level of the Tang Dynasty will also be of great benefit to me. Of course, if Your Majesty feels that it is really a pity, I don't mind you giving me a little more reward."

Li Shimin suddenly burst into a hearty laugh: "It's a well-deserved reward! Of course it's a big reward! No matter what the immortals want, I will do my best to fulfill it!"

"Well, since Your Majesty is so generous, then I... uh..."

Wang Quan scratched his head, feeling troubled by the question of what kind of reward he should ask for. The oil he wanted wouldn't be available anytime soon. After all, even if he provided the map and the technology, it would take time to extract it. Was there anything in the Tang Dynasty that he needed? He couldn't just ask Li Shimin to give him rice.

"that……"

At this moment, a weak voice sounded.

"Can you help me solve the square root of one variable?"

"..."

Everyone cast surprised glances at Lihua who had spoken, while the girl lowered her head guiltily. "I've been accompanying Wang Quan for the entire time, and I've forgotten all about my homework. I haven't even started a single word yet. Since you're willing to do anything for me—then doing my math homework shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"No."

Illya looked at Lihua awkwardly: "Don't you think it's wrong to let the ancients do our homework?"
