I bring the system to tease Shihuang to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 14 Stifling
Although Ying Zheng didn't show any particular anger at that time, the candles in his bedroom remained on overnight.

The next day, Zhao Jun exchanged red silk for a bag of sweet potato seeds, and she began to go back and forth between the palace and the western suburbs every day.

It was the scorching sun at noon, and the soldiers had already planted all the sweet potato seeds. At this time, they had just finished lunch and were resting under the shed.

Zhao Jun and Wang Taicang are also sitting under one of the sheds. Now that the planting has been completed, the next step is to think about composting.

"Wang Taicang, although this kind of seed has been planted, it is not enough if the soil is too fertile, and the seedlings that grow may turn yellow." She said looking at the land that was completely different from a few days ago.

A few days ago, this place was a wasteland, but now the ridges and ridges have been reclaimed, and the ridges have been drawn, and each piece looks very beautiful.

"Returning to Nushi, what does the fertility of the land refer to? I have never heard of it before?" Wang Deng looked at her suspiciously with his back bent.

"Probably there is not enough nutrition in the land to allow these seeds to grow vigorously. Now we have to find a way to add some nutrition to the land."

Wang Deng suddenly realized and nodded happily.

"So I understand, right, why didn't I think of it before, if it is really possible to artificially increase the nutrition of the land, then wouldn't the yield of food planted in the future be able to increase."

"Yes, you are right to think so." Zhao Jun pondered for a moment, in fact, she had been thinking about how to make soil fertilizer, and most of the way was to make straw.

"In this way, I thought of a method of retting straw. You need to find a way to get some straw, and the quantity should be large. It should be chopped to cover all the fields, and then about one-seventh of the straw is horse manure and human manure. return."

Without so many conditions, only the most traditional raw materials can be used.

"What? Zhao Nvshi, what do you want these things for?" Wang Deng was quite puzzled. He has been engaged in farming for 30 years, but he has never said that he wants to do this.

"Leave it alone for the time being, you get things in proportion, and I'll teach you how to stack rot."

Zhao Jun made up his mind not to worry about Wang Deng's questions, and let him see the result when the time comes.

"Leader Xuan—"

She waved again to Xuan Yang who was sitting with the soldiers resting there.

"Ms. Zhao, what's the matter?"

In the past few days, Xuanyang has seen that this female history is serious and considerate, and his attitude towards her is much gentler.

"Leader Xuan, in the afternoon, take someone to find an open space to dig a big hole, nine feet long, wide and twelve feet deep. The best place is downwind." Zhao Jun added after thinking about it.

If I don't choose the downwind place, I'm afraid that there will be smells everywhere.

"Yes, I will take someone to do it."

Zhao Jun carefully explained the materials needed for the pile of rot, and went to look at the hole Xuanyang dug. Everything is going well, and the construction will officially start tomorrow.

Zhao Jun was in a good mood, and she dismissed everyone early that afternoon and returned to the palace.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she came back, she heard something.

The eighteenth son of the king, Hu Hai, fell into the well and accidentally drowned!
This incident did not cause any sensation. After all, the king had many sons, and he already had an heir, Fusu. Soon the news disappeared in the palace.

But Zhao Jun knew in his heart that this was probably Ying Zheng's handwriting.

She was rarely silent, how should she feel?
Should I feel sorry for Hu Hai, or should I scold Ying Zheng for his cruelty?
But in fact, although she felt sorry for this child, she was also a little bit fortunate that nothing in history would happen.

In fact, Ying Zheng's actions could be foreseen when she said those words, and he couldn't tolerate Hu Hai growing into such a person.

Even if there is only a slight chance of this possibility.

Only when he completely wiped out this person in the bud can he stop that nightmare from happening.

Yingzheng will definitely make this choice, because he is the first emperor of Qin Dynasty.

And she became the butterfly flapping its wings.

Zhao Jun silently kept this matter to the bottom of his heart. The past cannot be undone, but the future can be changed. I'd better do the present thing well first.

The next day she came to the western suburbs as usual. Wang Taicang’s stuff was ready. She directed Xuanyang and the others to pour the straw and manure into the pit in proportion. The hot weather would take about half a month to retting. about there.

"Ouch, Zhao Nushi, can this really be composted? It smells so good." Wang Taicang, who has been dealing with food all the year round, couldn't bear the smell, and retched subconsciously.

Xuan Yang and those soldiers didn't show that they had received professional training, but they all had bad faces.

At this moment, Xuan Yang finally understood why the pit was dug in the downwind direction. If it was dug in the upwind direction, the wind would blow every day, and it would make people unable to live.

On the other hand, Zhao Jun is much more witty. When she went out in the morning, she specially brought a piece of cloth with her. She was covering her mouth with the cloth at this time, which finally blocked the smell a little.

"It shouldn't be a problem. After half a month, the fertilizer is almost retting, just use a ladle to scoop the things on the seedlings."

Zhao Jun was relieved to see that the land was no longer yellow. The seeds of corn, tomato and sweet potato began to emerge in about a week, and the large area of ​​land had already turned light green.

"Ms. Zhao has never asked what kind of plant the seeds are. Judging by the emergence speed, it must be a good seed."

Wang Taicang still knows a lot about plants. For so many days, he watched the seeds break out of the ground little by little, and he couldn't hide his excitement.

"Didn't I tell you, these are the seeds of corn, tomatoes and sweet potatoes. You will be even more surprised when these seeds actually grow."

Zhao Jun walked down the ground and turned around, then said, "At present, the rate of seedlings is not bad. Wang Taicang, you will bring someone to replant the places that have not yet emerged."

"Yes, sir, I will bring someone to do it."

"And leader Xuan, I will trouble your people with watering. Now that the weather is hot, we still need to water more." Zhao Jun said to him.

Time passed day by day, and the seedlings of corn and tomatoes grew well.

It was another rest day, and Zhao Jun came to Yingzheng to report on the work during this period, and happened to meet him discussing matters with ministers again.

He is really a workaholic, just when Zhao Jun was ready to wait in the side hall again, Sun Cheng came over.

"Ms. Zhao, your Majesty can just let you go directly to the front hall." Sun Cheng smiled as usual.

Now enter the front hall, why not listen to the corner of the side hall.

Zhao Jun didn't pay much attention to these things, she heard Li Si's voice just as she walked to the door.

"General Wang Jian defeated the country of Yan, and King Xi of Yan offered the head of Prince Dan and retreated to Liaodong."

Hearing this, Zhao Jun understood that the King of Qin swept Liuhe, and now the Yan Kingdom is almost destroyed.
