Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 101 Birth of the first butt wipe!

The First Emperor already had a choice in mind.

Although the situation was not optimistic, he still calmly chose to cooperate with Xia Wu and receive treatment.

As for decentralization?That is impossible.

This time, he gave up longevity, chose the present, chose, believed in Xia Wuqie, believed in Zhao Si.

Xia Wuqiu didn't say that there was no way to heal it, nor was he helpless.

Although Xia Wu could be felt and his confidence was not very high, the auspiciousness had already arrived. This time, Emperor Shi Huang believed that the destiny was his own.

On the other side, Zhao Si was on his way home by car.

"Hey... I wrote it for a whole day, more than 2000 words..." Inside the frame, Zhao Si sighed.

It took me a full day to delete, delete, and modify before I wrote a maritime plan that satisfied me, and put it in the Emperor Shihuang's place, but I finished reading it after a few glances.

Looking back, in my previous life, I only focused on urging updates when I read novels, but completely ignored the hardships of the authors. I only wrote [-] words. Thinking about the group of novel authors who are said to be short with [-] words a day, how distressing is it?

Hurrying back home, I got off work early today, and the sky is not yet completely dark, and the servants at home have already prepared meals.

After Zhao Si had eaten in a hurry, the maid at home prepared warm bath water for Zhao Si to bathe, washing away the tiredness and hard work of the day.

"Master, please take a bath!" The maid bowed and took off Zhao Si's clothes.

"Forget it, I'll do it myself!" Zhao Si looked down, he was a little angry recently, but after thinking about it carefully, after wandering at sea for so long, Zhao Si really didn't want to force someone to lock him up, so the good times could only be wasted.

Right now, it's hard to get ashore and land, so it seems that there's nothing wrong with enjoying yourself?
"Forget it, I won't be on duty tomorrow anyway!" Zhao Si comforted himself and stopped the maidservants who were about to leave, and threw himself into the gentle village with peace of mind.

The next day...

Zhao Si woke up early again, looked up and saw that the sky was still a bit dark, just about to get up, suddenly remembered that today is not worth it, the Emperor Shi Huang didn't roll his name, and he caught up with Lang Zhongling's monthly leave, so he didn't have any time in the past two days In class, there is no need to get up for work at all, and then lie in bed again.

After tossing and turning on the bed for quite a while, Zhao Si stretched his body and got up from the bed until it was daylight. The maid had already prepared Zhao Si's toiletries.

It was only halfway through washing when a maid knocked on the door and entered.

"Master, General Wang is visiting!"

"General Wang? Which General Wang?" Before Zhao Si remembered Wang Li, Wang Li's loud voice was already heard outside.

"Zhao Si, Zhao Shuzhang, Zhao Shilang, I'm here to look for you..."

As soon as Zhao Si heard that it was Wang Li, Zhao Si hurriedly opened the door and went out to the outer courtyard, only to see Wang Li standing in the outer courtyard in full-on clothes.

"You rest and take a bath today, do you have free time, you and I hunt in the wild, and we won't return if we don't get drunk!" Wang Li is a typical person who loves to play, and he likes to hunt if he can't catch a few prey...

"It's really loud, two courtyards away..." Zhao Si rolled his eyes and patted Wang Li's shoulder.

"I take a rest, you also rest today?"

"endlessly."

As soon as Zhao Si heard it, he knew that Wang Li had asked his father to approve the leave application again.

"Your father still allows you to leave the camp?" Zhao Si asked in surprise.

Wang Ben was very strict with Wang Li. Usually, except for Xiu Mu, Wang Li was not allowed to leave the camp. Now Wang Li is in Lantian, right under the eyes of his own father. It can be said that it is boring.

It wasn't until Zhao Si went to Lantian to plant land according to the order that Wang Li used Zhao Si's excuse to ask for leave before he could go out often.

"I told you to ask you for some things, so father will agree." Wang Li said with a smile.

"If you want to say that, I really have something to do..." Zhao Si smiled.

"Have you eaten yet? You didn't get up until you ate a single dish." Zhao Si pulled Wang Li to the pavilion in the courtyard, Li Chen hurriedly brought a few futons to the table, and the two sat down.

"What's the matter?" Wang Li asked.

"I have fifteen hectares of land. I plan to take care of it myself. You can get me some seeds. I want all grain seeds, and some mulberry trees. In addition, rice seeds, and now some vegetables and fruits. come over."

The maid had delivered the morning snacks and broth, Zhao Si said while eating.

Zhao Si's current [-] hectares of land, he intends to build an agricultural cultivation garden.

The high yield of sweet potato, potato and corn is obviously affected by the halo of uncut jade, Zhao Si has no reason not to develop and utilize it.

What kind of grains, vegetables, melons and fruits are all planted. You must know that the current grains, including vegetables, melons and fruits, have not been fully domesticated, and the yield and growth ability are far from those of later generations.

With the influence of the halo of uncut jade, it is completely possible to induce the transformation of these grains.

Wheat and rice, these two things are much more important than sweet potatoes. If they can be transformed, it will be of greater significance to Daqin.

Combined with the astonishing output of sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, Zhao Si felt that it would not be a big problem to double the current output of wheat and rice.

"You can send your servants and concubines to farm the land at home, or you can rent it to the head of the army. Why do you need to manage it yourself? If you really can't go back and plant it for you when my family is farming, there is no need to work so hard. Besides, it is not a good farmer at this moment. Time... it takes a lot of effort to grow rice here, just to irrigate the paddy fields requires a lot of effort, and hunting in the suburbs is more important." Wang Li answered seriously.

"You don't understand...I'm farming for Qin, for His Majesty!" Zhao Si shook his head.

Just kidding, Zhao Si himself is not short of food and clothing, let alone money, the reason why he is so concerned about this kind of thing is purely for the sake of his family, country and world.

Saying a thousand words and ten thousand will not change the fact that during the Qin Dynasty more than 2000 years ago, crops were not fully domesticated and agricultural production was barren.

The key is that Zhao Si's halo of uncut jade can just affect it. If sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corns raised the lower limit of the Great Qin Empire, then five grains and rice raised the upper limit of the Great Qin Empire.

The Qin Dynasty focused on agriculture and plowing, and the grain yield per mu was not removed. In addition to the fact that the world has not yet been fully developed, the key reason is that the grain species have not been fully domesticated. The most important thing is that the domestication of grain species in the feudal era took a hundred years as a unit, and it did not take a day.

"Hey!" Wang Li was taken aback. He wanted to say something weird, but after thinking about it carefully, Zhao Si didn't seem to have said anything empty, so he nodded.

"Sure, then I'll get the seeds for you. If you're short of manpower, just tell me. I just need to tell you that if you're farming in this season, and you have to plant some messy things, you probably won't be able to make ends meet."

"rest assured."

With the halo of uncut jade, even if you sprinkle the seeds on the ground, you will not be able to make ends meet. Besides, Zhao Si is not thinking about making money.

"Since that's the case, help me prepare after dinner. Originally, I planned to go to the market to buy them. But the seeds in the market are definitely not as complete as yours." Zhao Si said with a smile.

"That's it!" Wang Li was noncommittal.

This is the case with the great aristocrats of this era, and the products in the noble industrial park will even exceed the size of the market.

After saying this, the two ate with peace of mind.

After a while, after eating and wiping clean, the two of Zhao Siwangli got up and prepared to set off at the same time.

"By the way, you said you wanted to ask me for something, what is it? Could it be a reason to trick your father into allowing you to go out?" Zhao Si asked casually, wiping his mouth.

"How could I do this?" After speaking, Wang Li took out a stack of papers from his pocket.

"No, the paper you mentioned has been produced." Wang Li handed a stack of paper full of inferior fiber and rough texture to Zhao Si.

Zhao Si was overjoyed when he heard the sound, took the brown paper and stroked it lightly.

The texture was rough and the fibers were too large. Zhao Si shook it vigorously a few times, and several pieces of a piece of paper had been torn.

It's also brittle...extremely lacking in ductility and softness.

"wait for a second……"

Zhao Si ordered the maid to fetch brush and ink to write on it, and then quietly watched the smearing of the ink.

"Unexpected!" Zhao Si nodded as he looked at the handwriting that had already fainted into ink blobs.

I have already barely possessed the ability to bear the ink, at least carefully consider it so that it will not come out through the back, but the ink smear is relatively large... the writing has to be relatively large, and it is very easy to smudge, and the writing is blurry. Even if it looks good, it will be a mess.

In summary, it is not very good for writing, but if it is used for wiping buttocks, it should not be a big problem except that it may be a little rough.

Of course, several sheets have to be stacked together, otherwise the button will be broken accidentally.

It can be seen that the raw material is still hemp.

Moreover, it has only been more than a month since the last failure, and the production speed was too fast, which led to such poor quality.

"Go back and tell them, don't worry, try it with wood and bamboo, and extend the time to [-] or [-] days, don't wait a month or two." Zhao Si explained to Wang Li.

In ancient times, there was no rush in making paper, but if you want to make good paper, time is slow, and the soaking step alone does not know how long it will last.The more saturated you are, the looser and more rotten the fibers, and the better the quality of the paper you make.

It is idiotic to want to produce good paper on a large scale in a month.

"How about this..." Zhao Si thought for a while and said.

"Take twenty taels of gold from home!" Zhao Si ordered Li Chen, and after a while, Li Chen offered 20 taels of gold.

"When you go back, you just need to put this in the military craftsman's place, and tell them that you only need to make paper that satisfies me, and the 20 taels of gold are theirs. Let them look at the 20 taels of gold day and night, so that they can think about it, don't be in a hurry In addition, I will report to His Majesty Bing about making paper alone later, and try to get some titles for them. In the future, the few of them will specialize in paper making, and there is no need for other duties." Zhao Si said.

The main reason is that Zhao Si is no longer in Lantian, and making paper is not the job of the craftsmen, and even if it is made, the credit will fall on Zhao Si. It is inevitable that the craftsmen are eager and not caring enough.

It is also very simple to stimulate their enthusiasm and creativity, titles, money, and give them a space to create without distractions.

Although this batch of paper is inferior, it has clearly proved that the steps proposed by Zhao Si are correct. Next, you only need to follow these steps honestly and make trial and error to produce usable and qualified paper.

It is inevitable for paper to replace bamboo slips, and Zhao Si can be said to hate bamboo slips.

Zhao Si thinks that his handwriting is not good enough, at least more than half of the reason is due to the inconvenience of writing on the bamboo slips.

Now Zhao Si and Wang Li are already two departments, and if it is inconvenient to instruct those craftsmen, they must report to the higher authorities.

This group of craftsmen has production experience and has undergone trial and error, which can save a lot of time. As for whether this group of craftsmen will stay in Lantian or be transferred to Lang Zhongling, it depends on the negotiations between Meng Yi and Wang Ben.

After all, the credit for making the paper is really not small... Zhao Si doesn't care about this thing, Meng Yi and Wang Ben can make the decision, he just wants the white paper to come out as soon as possible, so as to save his bad calligraphy.
