Time Travel: The First Female Imperial Teacher of the Qin Dynasty

Ying Zheng also sighed: "Well, I am also troubled by this matter."

Lin Anlan was worried: "Daqin is now in its heyday. If we don't work harder, there will be trouble in the future."

"That's true." Ying Zheng agreed deeply.

"The most urgent task is to let the people of Daqin have as many children as possible."

Ying Zheng's eyes lit up: "Girl, do you have any good ideas?"

"Actually, it's not difficult, as long as His Majesty the First Emperor is willing to spend money." Lin Anlan smiled slightly.

"Spend money?" Ying Zheng was stunned.

Lin Anlan nodded: "That's right, only when there is a big reward, there will be brave men."

"I understand." Ying Zheng was thoughtful, and the next moment, he suddenly asked, "Girl, what reward do you want?"

"No need." Lin Anlan refused without hesitation.

"How can this be possible? You have helped me and His Majesty the First Emperor so much." Ying Zheng was a little unhappy. After thinking for a moment, he fixed his eyes on the ground around him and said, "How about this, I ask His Majesty to give you all the land next to it."

"Brother, this is absolutely not possible." Lin Anlan was shocked.

"Girl, please don't refuse." Ying Zheng shook his head. "Without you, the Qin Empire would never have achieved its current glory. Compared with your contribution to the Qin Empire, this is nothing."

Lin Anlan smiled bitterly: "Brother, that's not what I meant."

Ying Zheng was puzzled and asked, "What do you mean?"

"The manor I live in now is already big enough. I don't need any more land." Lin Anlan changed the subject and said, "But I do have a favor to ask of you."

Ying Zheng nodded: "You go ahead."

Lin Anlan was not polite and said directly: "I would like to ask my brother to help me find some workers to improve the river behind the manor."

Ying Zheng was stunned: "Improve the river?"

"Yes, the water flow in the river behind the manor is too little now, and it can't meet the needs of crops."

"I see." Ying Zheng suddenly realized, "How many workers do you need?"

"Hmm... maybe fifty or sixty."

Ying Zheng agreed very readily: "Okay, I'll ask Wang Li to bring people here tomorrow."

"Thank you, brother." Lin Anlan smiled happily.

"It's getting late, you should go and rest first." Ying Zheng smiled.

"Brother too." Lin Anlan nodded.

The next morning, Lin Anlan got up at daybreak. She was so excited that she didn't sleep well last night. Today she could finally implement her rice planting plan.

When she opened the gate, she found that Wang Li had already been waiting outside with a group of farmers.

"Mr. Wang, why are you here so early?" Lin Anlan asked in surprise.

"Uncle Zhao ordered me to come and help you." Wang Li explained with a smile.

"Who are these people?" Lin Anlan glanced at the farmers.

Wang Li explained: "These are all experienced farmers. With their help, Mr. Lin will be even more powerful."

"That's great." Lin Anlan was overjoyed. With the help of these farmers, her rice planting plan would surely go smoothly.

"Mr. Lin, what do we need to do now?"

Lin Anlan quickly greeted everyone to come in: "You probably haven't had breakfast yet, come in and eat something first."

Wang Li and the farmers ate sweet potato porridge without hesitation, and they were all very excited. In their opinion, the food here at Lin Anlan was more delicious than the food in the restaurant in Xianyang City.

After finishing breakfast, Wang Li couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Lin, what should we do now?"

His mind was now full of rice planting, so he ordered, "Come with me to deepen the river first."

"Okay." Wang Li and the farmers were full of energy.

Lin Anlan led them to the river behind the manor and began to direct everyone to dig the river.

To grow rice, you must have a deep enough water source. Fortunately, it is spring now and the river water is still abundant. With the help of Wang Li, Lin Anlan successfully dug the river deeper and diverted the river water to the potato and sweet potato fields.

Next, it’s time to plant rice.

Lin Anlan first sowed the rice seeds into nutrient soil, and then put them into the greenhouse for seedling cultivation.

Wang Li was amazed: "Mr. Lin, your idea is really brilliant."

"This will make the rice germinate faster." Lin Anlan said with a smile.

"So that's it." Wang Li suddenly realized.

Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing. As long as the rice seedlings grow, they can be transplanted to the paddy fields. Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was June. The weather gradually warmed up, and Lin Anlan's mood also became anxious.

Wang Li asked curiously, "Mr. Lin, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Anlan frowned: "I'm worried that the temperature will be too high and will affect the growth of crops."

Fortunately, she looked at the crops in the field and found that there was no problem. Instead, she became more and more annoyed because the weather was too hot.

In order to cool down, Lin Anlan plans to make his own ice cubes. This thing is actually very easy to make and only requires a little saltpeter.

She first got a large basin of water and then threw the saltpeter in. After the saltpeter entered the water, it reacted quickly, and white smoke rose above the basin. After a while, the water in the basin began to freeze.

"Haha, it worked." Lin Anlan was overjoyed.

Now that we have ice, we don’t have to worry about the heat anymore.

Lin Anlan did the same thing, and then got several basins of ice and placed them in various corners of the house. For a moment, the whole house became cool and pleasant.

Wang Li also really enjoyed it, and then he was filled with emotion: "Mr. Lin, your idea is really good."

"By the way, I have something to discuss with you." Lin Anlan suddenly remembered something.

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

"I'm going to buy some maids."

She is now busy with farming every day and has no time to spare, so she can only think of ways to make life more convenient.

Wang Li looked at her in surprise and asked, "Are you planning to buy a maid?"

"Yes, the manor's affairs are getting busier and busier now, and I can't handle it alone." Lin Anlan smiled bitterly, and then added, "But I plan to buy an older one."

"Why?" Wang Li was puzzled.

"Most young women have to get married and have children. If they are bought by me, wouldn't that ruin the joy of their lives?" Lin Anlan sighed.

Wang Li stood in awe: "I didn't expect Mr. Lin to have such thoughts."

"There's nothing I can do. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility." Lin Anlan shrugged. Although she also wanted to have a few young and beautiful maids, she thought about it and decided to give up. She didn't want to be a bad person like the madam.

"Then how do you tell whether the other party is willing?" Wang Li asked puzzledly.

"I will ask clearly in person. If the other party is unwilling, I will give certain compensation." Lin Anlan had already thought of a countermeasure.

Wang Li suddenly realized: "So that's it."

Lin Anlan requested: "I still need Mr. Xiao Wang to help me with this matter."

"No problem, leave it to me." Wang Li patted his chest and agreed. Now he was completely impressed by Lin Anlan's talent, and naturally would not refuse the other party's request.
