The Emperor of Qin gave six handsome men

Chapter 5 Meeting the First Emperor

Xianyang Palace

The food prepared according to Qin Xingfu's method was served to the First Emperor's table. The First Emperor's appetite was whetted, especially the chili peppers. The spicy feeling was very comfortable, addictive and delicious.

The next day, the First Emperor began to entertain several ministers. Everyone looked at each other, bewilderedly, as they saw food they had never eaten before. They looked at Li Si, and Li Si looked at Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao shook his head. He didn't even get to drink the soup last night. The eunuch who tasted the soup said it was as good as delicacies from land and sea, and he also wanted to eat it.

"Don't worry about eating them, they are not poisonous, and these two crops are extremely high-yielding. The first dish is called potatoes, also known as potatoes. We harvested nearly 5,000 kilograms from more than half an acre. The second one is sweet potatoes, which yielded nearly 40,000 kilograms from two and a half acres. Haha..."

Li Si quickly complied.

"This is truly God's blessing on the Great Qin. Where did Your Majesty get this divine object? This is truly a great feat that benefits the country and the people!"

"Hahaha... This was sent by Fusu. I decided to go and see quietly whether it is real or not. I also want to see who is the person who can bring such a sacred object."

"God bless the Great Qin, and may our emperor live forever. This must be an immortal sent by heaven to bring such a divine object."

"Yes, yes! We have never seen such a divine object before. It is thanks to Your Majesty's great blessing that we can enjoy it."

Several ministers began to agree, and others who wanted to persuade him also wanted to see for themselves that this person had made such a contribution, and promotion would be a piece of cake! Such a person must be won over.

In Shangjun, the people sent by Meng Tian found what Qin Xingfu mentioned in Luliang and sent it back at full speed.

"Found it, happiness, look, is this what you said?"

Meng Tian took Qin Xingfu to see the things he had sent people to find. Qin Xingfu was extremely surprised. He thought that the ancient people were really amazing. She told him the general situation, and unexpectedly, they really found it. She drew a blueprint for him to prepare to build a kiln.

It was completed in two days, and Qin Xingfu began to prepare to burn cement. He had already crushed the materials in advance during these two days, which consumed a lot of manpower. There were still some parts that were not completed. Qin Xingfu took a look and decided to harvest corn and peanuts.

"Sir, you don't keep an eye on these every day, do you? You probably won't get much here, and this needs to be dried to get the actual weight, but this pole can be used to feed horses and cows."

Qin Xingfu walked closer and saw that in addition to Fusu, there were several other people there. One of them was a dignified and serious person. Fusu looked nervous. Qin Xingfu guessed who it was.

She was stunned for a moment, her mind was screaming, Oh my God! This is what the First Emperor looks like, he is really tall, almost two meters tall, she is only 1.7 meters tall and still has to look up at him, but his face is not good, is it because he took too many drugs?

When she was a child, Grandpa Wang next door taught her some Chinese medicine, and she only learned the basics.

Hey, that's not right, why is he here? Oh, will he kill me? Am I exposed? Fuck, Fusu is not a good person, why didn't anyone tell her? Will he sell her out? What should I do? I don't want to be noticed so early.

"How dare you not show respect to His Majesty?"

Zhao Gao scolded her, so Qin Xingfu bowed 90 degrees to the First Emperor very seriously. Zhao Gao was furious when he saw her inappropriate salute, and Fusu hurried to explain.

"Father, I have neglected the etiquette of this girl. I hope you will not blame me."

Qin Xingfu quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"

When the First Emperor heard him say "Long live the emperor", he was happy.

"Forget it, what is this?"

Qin Xingfu was so excited that her body was shaking. Oh, heaven! Oh, earth! She really wanted to take out her cell phone and take a picture of the First Emperor. She suspected that the historical records were all wrong. The First Emperor was tall and mighty. Even with simple clothes, he looked so handsome. His eyebrows and nose were so handsome. She was almost exhausted.

If her grandparents were there, they would probably die of excitement on the spot.

"You bold and unruly man, His Majesty is asking you a question?"

Zhao Gao was very displeased to see that she was staring at the emperor. It was too presumptuous. Fusu was very nervous. He was really worried that his father would look at her head. Meng Tian felt that she was like a dog seeing a bone, "Pah pah pah..." with an expression as if she had seen gold.

Qin Xingfu was called back to his senses and kowtowed a few more times.

"Your Majesty, these are peanuts, growing in the ground. We are going to harvest them today. I will dig them up and show them to you."

Great Emperor Shi Huang, it's okay to kowtow, she wants to kowtow a few more times, to show how to dig peanuts, she has to get her hands dirty, her delicate hands have been worn out in the past few months. Qin Xingfu dug out a nest, checked it out, it was not bad, so she showed how to eat it, eat it raw.

Zhao Gao was full of disgust. This woman was so disgusting, so unruly, and with so much dirt on her, how dare she give it to His Majesty to eat!

He quickly wiped it clean with his clothes, then peeled one and gave it to the First Emperor.

Qin Xingfu admired his lackey-like behavior. He then asked everyone to dig and then to pick corn, and picked a few more for everyone present to see.

Qin Xingfu

"This is already very old and can't be eaten. You can cook it when it's tender. For example, you can dry it and grind it into porridge. You can also feed it to horses and pigs. Then everyone will be able to eat meat."

Qin Xingfu looked at the way they looked at her and felt like they were looking at a mentally retarded person. She felt insulted. Since she was a child, everyone admired and adored her. She was furious and started to make empty promises.

"Your Majesty, all the lords, within two years, every place in the Great Qin can grow these crops. If people can't finish them, they can feed them to pigs and chickens. Every household will have surplus food, and everyone will be grateful to Your Majesty. The whole Great Qin will surely be united. But at that time, the land that the sun and the moon shine on is the territory of our Qin, and everyone is our Qin citizen. When we have strong soldiers and horses, what is there for the little Xiongnu to fear?"

"Hahaha... You are so arrogant. You are just a woman, but you have such an idea. But governing a country is not that simple."

The First Emperor felt comfortable, while Zhao Gao thought that this man was better at flattering than he was. Li Si and others looked at her with scrutiny, but Qin Xingfu held her head high and chest puffed out, not feeling guilty at all.

"I don't understand statecraft, but I do know that in life, apart from life and death, most people hope to have enough food to eat when they are hungry and enough clothes to wear when they are cold. This world is so big, and there is a place to live. Only when people are full and warm will they do other things, such as obeying the law or observing etiquette. The prerequisite is that they must be full and have hope to survive before they can listen to what others say. Am I right?"

The First Emperor saw that she spoke simply and straightforwardly, but her ideas were indeed profound. He had been hungry when he was a child. Indeed, how could he talk about governing a country when he couldn't even get enough food?

Fusu was shocked. He thought she was just someone who could make strange inventions, but he didn't expect her to think so much and so far. He also thought of all the things she had said to him before. Although he convinced her verbally, he just didn't want to argue with her in his heart. It seemed that he had to ask her for advice now.

"Yes, what reward do you want?"

The First Emperor spoke loudly.

Qin Xingfu thought for a while and said.

"Your Majesty, please don't fine me taxes. I'm 20 and don't want to get married. Can I ask for a pardon from death?"

Here, those who are unmarried at her age will be fined.

The First Emperor shook his head.

"The country has its own laws. If you do something evil after getting it, you can't be sentenced to death."

"This is simple. It can only be used once. Besides, I will not be a traitor to my country, nor will I kill innocent people. I just want to save my life. If a little girl like me is framed one day, I won't know how I died."

Qin Xingfu saw that the First Emperor was not so cold-blooded, so she spoke in a coquettish tone.

Fusu was stunned. From childhood to adulthood, no one had dared to speak to his father like this. Even his younger brothers and sisters rarely acted coquettishly towards his father.

The First Emperor felt a little uncomfortable. He felt that this young woman was strange, but he was also a little happy. He had so many children, and most of them were scared to death when they saw him.

"Yes! Zhao Gao intends to summon you. What is your name?"

"Your Majesty, my name is Qin Xingfu, Qin for Great Qin, Xing for lucky, and Fu for blessed."

"How dare you! Answer your Majesty's words properly!"

Zhao Gao quickly rebuked her, saying that this person might be here to snatch his position, and he couldn't let her take the position of his favorite.

"It's okay. I've approved it, Qin Xingfu, right? Considering your contribution to growing grain, I'll reward you with a hundred gold coins and grant you a pardon from death, but you can't be exempted from taxes. You should get married at your age, and I'll allow you to decide your own marriage."

Qin Xingfu touched her nose and said, she didn't want it. These people were her ancestors. She couldn't accept it in her heart, so she had to kneel down to accept the order and thank the emperor.

At this time, the corn had been harvested. Looking at the pile of golden corn, Fusu asked someone to weigh it quickly. It was about two thousand kilograms, and each corn cob was very plump.

"Your Majesty, one seed like this can grow into one like this. If we dry all of these, we should be able to plant hundreds of acres of land. If nothing goes wrong, the granary will be full. This crop is drought-resistant and high-yielding like the previous ones. It can be planted in most areas, but to be on the safe side, let's observe it next year."

Qin Xingfu roughly estimated that if all these seeds were planted, they would soon bloom everywhere, but he was a little unsure whether these corn seeds were stable.

The First Emperor held the corn in his hand without saying a word. He counted the grains on one cob, and then discovered that the whole pile probably came from one or two such cobs. He looked at the pile in front of him and felt it was a bit shocking.

"I see it's so high. Is there only one stick like this?"

"There are a few, but only one is bigger. This full one is pretty good too."

Fusu didn't know what to say. He felt that within two years, the entire Qin Dynasty would be just as Xingfu said. People would no longer starve to death, and it would be easier to educate the people.

Li Si's eyes rolled and he spoke quickly.

"Your Majesty, this is truly a blessing for the Great Qin! I hope this woman can be sent to the outskirts of Xianyang to be responsible for this matter full-time and contribute to the Great Qin."

Qin Xingfu wanted to curse when he heard this. This Li Si is really annoying.

~( ′?︵?` )~, who would be willing to go to that place of conflict? She was afraid of death, so she quickly looked at Fusu for help.

"Happiness, we have finished grinding, come and fire the kiln!"

Meng Tian's voice came from far away, and Qin Xingfu suddenly felt that he was not so annoying anymore, he was like a savior!

"Your Majesty, I, Meng Tian, ​​come to see you! When did your Majesty arrive? Why didn't anyone let me know? I am being rude."

Meng Tian now looked like he had been pulled out of ashes, his entire body was covered in dust.

"It's okay. What did you just say?"

"Oh, that's right. She said there's something that can speed up the construction of the city wall. I asked someone to find the material she mentioned and grind it into fine powder. I'm waiting for her to burn it for us to see. Your Majesty, would you like to go and take a look?"

The First Emperor glanced at Qin Xingfu and nodded.

When Meng Tian saw the corn on the ground, he was no longer concerned. He just wanted to quickly repair the Great Wall so that he could better defend himself when the Huns invaded in winter.

"Sir, have someone collect these and dry them while the weather is good so that you can plant them next year. I'm going to go and make cement."

Qin Xingfu started to burn cement after he finished speaking. He secretly checked his phone last night. He mixed the raw powder according to the proportion, put it into the kiln, started to light the fire, and after the firewood was burned, threw the coal in.

"What is this?"

Li Si was drinking tea with the First Emperor and saw her throwing lumps of coal into the tea, so he asked curiously.

"This is a lump of coal. It is durable and can reach very high temperatures. If you use it to forge weapons, you can get..."

Qin Xingfu suddenly stopped. This is Li Si. Why should he say so much to him?

"Hmm? Keep going."

The First Emperor suddenly came behind him and stopped talking halfway through. Qin Xingfu glared at Li Si and continued. Li Si looked puzzled. This man was very hostile to him.

"If you use this to make weapons, the resulting weapons will be lighter, with good strength and hardness. In addition, it can be used to make more tools and machinery, and it can also be used for heating. But remember to ventilate, otherwise people will die. It has many uses and I can't explain it in a short time. Even if I tell you, you won't understand. You'll see later!"

"I didn't know there was such a magical thing."

Qin Xingfu thought to himself, he is a person living two or three thousand years later, he knows a lot, so Mr. Qin Shi Huang, just wait for your worldview to be constantly refreshed!

After dinner, Qin Xingfu thought it was about time, so she stopped firing the kiln and went back to the tent to wash up and get ready for bed. Zhao Gao woke her up and said that the emperor was calling her. Qin Xingfu quickly put on her clothes, tied her hair, picked up her phone and tablet, and went to see the First Emperor.

Along the way, her mind was spinning like crazy. Great, great, she could talk to the First Emperor. What was she going to say? Should she just tell the truth?

"No courtesy, sit down!"

The First Emperor had just finished talking with Fusu. He was skeptical about Qin Xingfu's background and simply exempted her from the gift.

"I heard from Fusu that you came from more than 2,000 years ago. Come and tell me which unfilial descendant even changed the name of my country?"

Although Qin Xingfu had made preparations, he did not expect that the first question he asked was not about immortality, but who changed the name of his country?

It seems that he doesn't really want to live forever, but he feels that he is sick and wants to find medicine to cure the disease, so he is desperate and tries all kinds of medical treatments!

She blinked, then looked around.

"Your Majesty, please call Prince Fusu, dismiss the attendants, and have them stay fifty steps, no, a hundred steps away from the tent."

Zhao Gao was not happy. This little girl was so outrageous! The First Emperor gave him a look, and he had no choice but to do as he was told.

After Fusu came, Qin Xingfu took out his mobile phone and tablet.

"Your Majesty, Young Master, this is a product of more than 2,000 years from now. This is a mobile phone and a tablet. It can transmit sound thousands of miles away, and even see scenes and people thousands of miles away. This is a product of our future. Do you believe that I am from the future?"

Fusu and the First Emperor held two objects in their hands, thinking that what she said was too fake. Qin Shihuang thought that she was sent down from heaven by an immortal. This was an artifact of the immortals, otherwise how could it transmit sound over a thousand miles? But now, whatever she said was true.

Qin Xingfu was not in a hurry to give in, but wanted to show them some functions, such as the flashlight, music, some photos and videos. She did not dare to show the voice function, for fear that the First Emperor would misunderstand that there really were immortals.

"Okay, I believe you are from the future. Tell me who changed the name of the country for me?"

Fusu was also very curious. The two of them stared at her. Qin Xingfu took a deep breath and then knelt down directly.
