The next day.

"Damn Shuo Shu!!!"

"You actually stole my wine?"

Cao Xiu's angry roar echoed through the house.

The servants walked out one after another, all of them with curious faces. All they could say was that they belonged to Cao Xiu's house! Other people's Shuoshu stole food and oil to eat, but the Shuoshu in their house actually stole wine. After all, they were from a wealthy family.

Weng, even Shuo Shu knows how to eat well.

Cao Xiu held the clay pot in distress.

This is the millet wine he carefully brewed!

Buried in the ground for three full years!

I just dug it out a few days ago and he hasn't drunk much.

The result is good, only one is left today!

At this time, Qin Shihuang also came out, and his heart was filled with joy when he saw Cao Xiu like this. He naturally drank the wine. Wang Jian quietly brought it to him last night, and the two of them drank heartily.

This wine does taste better!

Qin Shihuang would drink some liqueur wine when he had nothing to do, but he had good self-control and usually only had two drinks. As an emperor, he had to be busy dealing with national affairs. Therefore, he never got drunk.

Passed.

Over the years, he has drunk fine wines from various countries, but he has never encountered one as clear and mellow as Cao Xiu. If he could go back, he must let Cao Xiu make him wine every day.

"What are you looking at?"

"It's just a jar of wine, what's the big deal?"

"This jar is worth a thousand gold, what do you think?" Cao Xiu picked up the empty jar and drank the rest. He turned around and said angrily: "Mother Xipi, I have always been the only one who cheats others, and I have never cheated others.

No one dares to trick me. Cao'er, go find me some more raccoons."

"Young Master, we already have two at home."

"One more, one for each person!!!"

"Only..."

Cao'er quickly bowed and left.

……

After eating the imperial food, Qin Shihuang burped. The food in his house was very delicious. A bowl of hot corn porridge with fried zu was quite comfortable in this hot summer.

"Go and wash the dishes."

Wang Jian slammed the bowls and chopsticks on the table.

Seeing how aggressive he was, Cao Xiu was stunned.

"What are you going to do?"

"Wash the dishes!"

"Damn, why are you making such a big fuss?"

"..."

"Azheng, come with me."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Good thing!"

"Huh?"

Cao Xiu walked in front, crossing the front yard.

The backyard is a bamboo forest as far as the eye can see, as well as an artificially dug pond with some river fish. Then there is a large vegetable garden, which is already green as far as the eye can see, and some even have lavender flowers.

At this time, every household basically had a vegetable plot, where they could grow onions, leek, pheasant, or spinach. The fertile land was used to grow food, and the wealthy nobles in Xianyang City would grow vegetables. Usually, the capital of Guizhou was planted in their own homes.

A small vegetable garden is cultivated at the door for food. The genes for growing vegetables are also passed down from generation to generation, even in the villages of later generations.

"Huh? What is this kind of thing?"

"Good stuff."

"???"

Qin Shihuang looked at the preserved vegetables curiously.

When they were held as hostages in the State of Zhao, their life as orphans and widowers was not easy. Although they did not have to do farm work, they could be seen by everyone. Not to mention being skilled in farming, at least they knew most of them.

The green seedlings are lush and green, and they are everywhere. They are about two or three inches high, and the leaves are oval or oblong, with white pubescence on both sides. Qin Shihuang looked at them carefully for several times, but he didn't recognize them.

Vegetables, or exotic flowers and plants for ornamental purposes?

"Hey, I'll leave this piece of preserved vegetable to you." Cao Xiu handed the bucket and ladle to Azheng, and said with emotion: "I tell you, you have to take good care of these young seedlings. These young seedlings are even bigger than

My life still matters."

"Then you still want me to take care of you?"

Qin Shi Huang replied angrily.

He has now recognized the reality and no longer calls himself "I". But he still speaks with a Guanzhong accent, which is the elegant language of Qin. There is nothing that can be done about it.

As for what Cao Xiu said, it was obvious that he was fooling him. If the head of Guizhou said it, it is not an exaggeration. After all, for the head of Guizhou, food is his life. But Cao Xiu's family has a big business, so how can he care about this?

"Ahem...I trust you!"

Cao Xiu touched his nose with a slight guilty conscience. The first crops grown here were potatoes, a type of grain that was not found in Qin or even in the world!

Of course, he must have left some seeds.

This is his habit.

The origin of this potato is really a long story.

In his previous life, Cao Xiu was a village official and was responsible for going to the countryside to help the poor, so he bought some piglets and seeds and returned to the village. On the way, he saw a child falling into the water, so he rushed into the water to save them, and then... he was washed away to Qin State.

There is no system or golden finger when he opens his eyes. Cao Xiu doesn't take it seriously. After all, time travel is actually the biggest golden finger. After all, he understands the future historical direction.

What Cao Xiu wanted to do was to sit tight in the early stage and secretly stockpile grain and train troops. After the death of the First Emperor and Hu Hai's succession to the throne, he raised troops from Peixian County. He was indeed not good at leading troops in battle, but he knew who could lead troops and fight well.

Of course, the uprising must have some reputation to fool the ignorant people into following it. For example, Liu Bang launched the White Snake-Slaying Uprising, and Chen Sheng came to hide books in the belly of a fish. These are all good methods.

Originally, Cao Xiu wanted to recreate it, but later he heard Xiao He mention that when the Jiuding entered the Qin Dynasty, one of the cauldrons fell into Surabaya. This incident directly inspired him. The Jiuding symbolizes the nine states in the world and is a national treasure.

Ah!

If he could pick up the cauldron, wouldn't it fly away?

So, he asked Zhou Bo to bring some dead men to fish it out. He remembered that the First Emperor had to go to Pengcheng to offer sacrifices this year, and arranged for thousands of people to pray for the tripod, but he failed to fish it out.

Fortunately, Zhou Bo is very lucky.

He really fished out the Yongzhou Ding!

Now this cauldron is hidden in a secret room in the tunnel by Cao Xiu.

As for this tunnel?

Ahem, what he is doing is to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan. If one day the matter is exposed, he can escape through this secret road. In two lifetimes, Cao Xiu is more precious than anyone else.

Fishing out the Yongzhou Cauldron was the next best thing. The key was that his backpack from his previous life was actually inside the cauldron. It had rotted away after being soaked in the river water, but the seeds he bought were wrapped in pockets and were almost intact.

God has eyes!

After sixteen years, his golden finger finally arrived!

Cao Xiu remembers that in order to save people in his previous life, he didn’t even have time to take off his backpack. Since he has traveled through time, does it make sense that his backpack has traveled through time?

For three years, he has been cultivating it secretly.

During this period, the yield was also reduced due to diseases, and it was considered stable last year. However, such high-yielding crops are destined to consume a lot of soil and fertilizer, and the yield will definitely not be comparable to that of modern cultivation in later generations.

Qin Shihuang stepped forward and stared at the young seedlings.

"Is this the case for you?"

"Hey, potato!"

"Potato... potato?"

Qin Shihuang looked at the young seedlings, confused again.
Chapter completed!
