Chapter 37 Corn

Please recommend!

The yard of Ma Fujun Zhao She was very big in the past. The square in the front yard alone was like a small football field, which allowed a large number of soldiers to train various martial arts, and even cavalry traveled and crossed.

Just looking at this square, you can know what the mansion was at its peak in the past. I guess thousands of servants in this mansion could tolerate it. After the war in Changping, King Zhao ordered people to plunder. In this mansion, most of the people who were asked about the crime were scattered.

Without the master in the mansion, everything was returned to King Zhao, and no more slaves and troops were raised inside. At this time, more than 500 slaves in the entire courtyard seemed empty.

At this time, Wang Li invited King Zhao to take breakfast and led him to the backyard. The front yard was a square for training, the back yard was a large area of ​​land surrounded by the yard wall, a well pond, and a small bamboo forest.

The ancients said that it is better to eat without fish than to live without bamboo. If there are bamboos to use to make bamboo slips, the bamboo forest is indispensable for any aristocratic courtyard.

Wang Li didn't have time to look at it late at night last night, but now he found it in the inner courtyard of the backyard, where there was a pool surrounded by the walls in the yard.

The pool itself is nearly two meters lower than the surrounding ground, with well water overflowing and drainage channels on the edge. I don’t know where to discharge it. Once the pool water overflows, it can flow out, and it is actually living water.

The pool is rectangular, about ten meters long and about five meters wide. Steps are built in the middle of four directions. The surrounding area is full of stones. The depth of the pool is divided into two pieces. The shallow water area is about lower than the chest, but the deep water area is two meters, and the clear bottom is full of large pebbles.

Wang Li could see the function of such a pool at a glance. It turned out to be a bath pool. When the bath pool was just looking at this bath pool, Wang Li thought about how refreshing it was to soak his whole body in this hot summer. And if he was accompanied by many beauties, it was so free and freehand, it was a great enjoyment.

It turns out that the technology at this time may not be as good as that of later generations, but for nobles and nobles, their enjoyment in some places may not be inferior to modern times. In this era, it takes no amount of labor to build such a pool.

At this time, I thought that he had made an appointment with Wu Tingfang to visit this afternoon, and thought to myself that this is a good place to visit. It can not only relieve the hot summer heat in the water, but also see Wu Tingfang's infinitely beautiful and charming body.

Thinking of this, Wang Li was also in a state of turmoil.

Walking all the way through the inner yard and reaching the back yard, Wang Li had already ordered dozens of slaves to clear out a neat open space as soon as possible. The slaves were busy at this time, but the farm tools in their hands were simple and extremely inefficient.

Their agricultural tools are actually good, all made of wood, and the key areas are made of bronze, which is no longer affordable for ordinary people. Mei Cannibal said that fifty copper coins are enough for them to live in a year, but there are more than fifty copper coins in key positions on so many agricultural tools. How can ordinary people afford it?

The efficiency of such agricultural tools is still so low. At this time, Wang Li thought about the previous year that he went to the Dongting area of ​​Yunmeng to work as a construction worker and manage construction sites. The local rural residents planted a large amount of cotton.

The farm tools in their hands were hand-pulled plows, and the plowshares were extremely sharp. When one person held them in his hands, he could plow out a line. Acre of land was easily opened without plowing oxen.

Other large and small shovels are extremely labor-saving, light and durable. If they are given to these farmers here, I am afraid they should be used as magical tools? The metal smelting and manufacturing technology of a country is really related to a country's lifeline, not only in weapons, but also in agriculture.

At this time, Wang Li truly saw the inefficiency of agriculture in this era. Such a laborious farming yielded very little in a year. Compared with modern agriculture, the gap is so great that it only makes people who hear that in modern times, those who often produce a million kilograms per mu, and those who harvest a few thousand kilograms per mu, and those who harvest a few thousand kilograms per mu, have truly realized it.

In this way, Wang Li also had a deeper understanding of what effect would a huge killer weapon like corn have in this era.

Wang Li went back to his room and took a pack of high-quality corn seeds from his backpack that he had recently returned to the earth. He waited with King Zhao to wait for the land to be moved out.

A handful of golden corn seeds with white roots were grabbed by King Zhao. He carefully looked at the seeds one by one, as if he was checking the most moving beauty in the world. For the country of this era, what other treasure is more important than this kind of treasure that is related to the lifeline of agriculture?

"The whole body is golden, the roots are white, and flawless. This kind of seed has gold and white jade, no wonder it is so extraordinary." King Zhao murmured, his eyes fascinated: "Sir, I don't know what this god is called?"

"King, this god species is called corn." Wang Li also grabbed a grain of corn and answered with a grasp.

"Corn is really an image. Mr. said yesterday that jade is the essence of the earth. This corn must have carried the essence of the earth before it can have such a harvest. What a corn, what a corn."

"Sir, this corn is golden all over, but I don't know if it has the gold nature and can have the effect of being immortal. Will long-term consumption be helpful to the body?"

Wang Li never expected that yesterday, influenced by his thoughts on the charlatan, King Zhao learned to apply it today, and put it into consideration for the explanation of corn. However, what King Zhao said was right. Eating corn is indeed beneficial to the body in some aspects.

"What the king said is not bad. This corn is full of treasures. Let's talk about the corn seeds in the king's hand, which are the fruits of the corn."

"The easiest way to make corn fruits is to be eaten after they are cooked. Not only can it be used with other grains, but it tastes extremely sweet and delicious. Eating corn has various functions for the body."

"First, eating corn is indeed as the king said, and it has anti-aging effects, but it must be eaten for a long time before it can be reflected, but its effects are not visible in one day."

King Zhao nodded repeatedly, looking at the corn, and was very excited. He was afraid that he wanted to wait until the corn came out and directly use corn as the main food. "That's true. How much gold can a corn bear? The fruit needs long-term. First, it can live long. Besides longevity, what is the second?"

"Secondly, taking corn can clean up impurities and filth in the human blood, can also promote diuresis, stomach and intestines, and eliminate toxins that are harmful to health in the human body. Taking it for a long time can also protect the skin and nourish the skin, and can also be used to make wine."

"Removing the filth in the blood can also promote diuresis, intestines, detoxify, nourish the skin, make wine, and corn has so many effects. It is really a magical object." King Zhao couldn't help but sigh as he heard Wang Li's words.

"In the future, a kind of corn comes out, and I will definitely use corn as the main food."

"This is the preciousness of corn fruits, but I don't know how precious other places of corn are?"

Wang Li pointed to the place far away and said, "My king, after this corn grows, the branches of the corn can be used for papermaking, the ears of the corn can also be used as fuel to burn fire, and the stems and leaves can also be used as feed for livestock."

"It's really a divine object, it's really a divine object." King Zhao sighed repeatedly, his eyes full of fascination.

While talking with King Zhao, the servants cleared the ground according to Wang Li's instructions and dug a seed pit. Wang Li then sowed the seeds with King Zhao and participated in the farming. This was the first time in King Zhao's life, and he planted a "sperm seed" again, and he was even more excited.

He was originally weak and weak, so he insisted on sowing all the seeds with Wang Li before giving up.

At this time, although he was excited, his body was already extremely tired. Later, he rested with Wang Li for a while and discussed the detailed operation of the treasure appraisal conference with Wang Li. After hearing what Wang Li said, he applauded again and said that if he went to engage in business, he would probably be better than Mr. Tao Zhu in the past.

He originally asked him to preside over the presidency, but he used his power to widely publicize and invite nobles and merchants.

At this time, Wang Li said that all those who want to participate in the treasure appraisal conference and come to appraise and get treasures must pay a considerable entrance fee to him, the owner, to show that he has enough wealth to bid for the treasure so that he can enter the market. As for Wang Li's proceeds of the treasure sale, King Zhao can also receive eleven.

In this way, he could gain a lot of money by just this entry fee. Although he was rich in a country, the wealth of nobles and merchants in the entire country accounted for most of the land, and the country's wealth also paid more for state affairs. The property he could use was taken from the land of the royal family and the royal family.

This is the first time that he has earned money by himself. When King Zhao heard about the novelty, he was extremely interested. What made him even happier was that Wang Li's treasure was not prepared to be taken out at one time, but it had to be divided into three times.

The first time, I just took out some ordinary treasures and invited the nobles and merchants from Handan three days later. At this time, I think the entrance fee can be rewarded a lot.

The second time, when we promoted this grand event, we could all let the nobles and merchants from all countries around us know that by then, there would be more participants. As for the third time, we were afraid that all the merchants in the world would send people to compete for the treasure. By then, we were afraid that the entrance fee would be lenient. As for the commission of the eleventh country, it might be smaller in the future.

At this time, Wang Li suggested that the king could use this treasure appraisal conference to gain a reputation, and in the future, he could open a bidding place with the authority and guarantee of the king, and explain the many operations of how to bid for the auction venue and how to collect fees, which only heard King Zhao applauding.

As the king of a country, he is very authoritative in a country and dominates a country. However, money cannot be taken away by tricks, nor should he directly deprive his ministers of the financial and property, nor should he misappropriate the entire country's property. He must act in moderation and pay attention to methods.

In the era of prosperity of aristocrats, aristocrats and kings always share the world with each other. The king controls the world through the entire aristocrats. Although the king has a high status, it is far inferior to the entire aristocrat class. He just controls the country by sharing the rules and interests.

If the king violates the rules and crosses the line, he will be wise and powerful, and he will do everything to plan for the country. As long as it arouses the anger of the aristocratic class, he will become "incompetent". At the very least, he will be kicked off the throne and let other heirs ascend the throne. In serious cases, he will be in danger of destroying the country.

At this time, Wang Li proposed the auction, which undoubtedly allowed him to add a lot of money out of thin air, and it might even be endless. King Zhao was happy to do such a good thing.

He was about to take a break before leaving, but when he heard such good things, he couldn't help but sit down and listen to all things clearly with Wang Li. After this, it was almost noon that King Zhao left under the support of the guards.

However, Zhao Ding was left behind, but nearly half of the imperial guards brought were stationed in the mansion. The soldiers under his jurisdiction were all supported by the large defense areas guarded by the relevant cities outside the mansion.

Wang Li's mansion was originally big enough. The less than 600 guards were stationed in, but they didn't seem crowded, but they seemed a little angry, but inside and outside the manor were like iron buckets, solemn and solemn as if they were as palaces.
