Qin Dynasty: Your Majesty, I really am a time traveler.
Chapter 37 Imperial Advisor, Don't Be Anxious
"Mr. Tang, I never expected these fries to be so delicious!"
Ying Zheng sat in front of Tang Yu's bed, his eyes shining as he looked at the plate of fries in front of him.
While talking to Tang Yu, he quietly began stuffing his hand into his mouth.
Heaven have mercy! He, Ying Zheng, had worked so hard for most of his life, yet he had never even tasted such a delicacy once!
So this is how immortals enjoy life?
"Your Majesty, once potatoes are introduced to the whole country, not only you, but all the other citizens and officials of Qin will be able to enjoy this delicacy. Moreover, no matter how potatoes are cooked, they taste extremely delicious, and the sweet potato is in no way inferior to them!!!"
After saying that, Tang Yu took a freshly baked sweet potato from a bowl next to him.
Ying Zheng savored the sweet taste in his mouth, his eyes filled with even more surprise.
"Mr. Tang, were these sweet potatoes simply roasted? Were no seasonings added at all?"
You know, Tang Yu's potatoes are delicious because he fried them in precious sesame oil before cooking.
But the fact that this sweet potato could be so delicious after being simply grilled today was something Ying Zheng never expected.
Only then did Ying Zheng realize just how precious the two things Tang Yu had given him truly were.
Previously, Tang Yu had only given him seeds generated within the system space, so Ying Zheng had not had the opportunity to taste them.
Only after tasting it did Ying Zheng realize how delicious it was!
"Your Majesty, you've eaten and drunk your fill, so what brings you here today?"
Tang Yu looked at Ying Zheng, who had been sticking to him like a leech all day, and said with a hint of helplessness.
I thought that after dealing with Ying Zheng's illness in the first half of the day, I would have another day of slacking off, but now it seems that I was really overthinking it.
That scoundrel Zheng is the epitome of a wealthy landlord; he would never let me slack off if he was allowed to work.
"Mr. Tang, I have already ordered people to plant these potatoes and sweet potatoes. I wonder when we will be able to harvest them?"
"One month will be enough."
"A month???"
"Yes."
Tang Yu nodded. The first batch of fruits was a top-grade growth fruit assigned to him by the system.
Not only does it produce a much larger quantity of fruit, but its growth rate is also much faster than that of normal fruit. However, this rapid reproductive characteristic can only last for four generations.
After the fourth generation, the crops become ordinary, high-yield potatoes and sweet potatoes.
What Tang Yu and Ying Zheng needed to do was to use these four generations to expand the planting scale of potatoes and sweet potatoes so that all the people of Qin could have seeds to grow.
However, after Tang Yu told Yun Zheng about Qin's situation, Ying Zheng nodded in agreement.
"Even if the harvest time is not so fast later, I am already satisfied compared to rice and wheat."
"In that case, Your Majesty, why don't you..."
Seeing Ying Zheng nod, Tang Yu was about to send him away when Ying Zheng spoke again.
"I have already had the ingredients for the cement manufacturing process provided by Mr. Tang collected according to the required materials."
"At the same time, the cement manufacturing plant has already started construction. In less than 10 days, everything will be ready. At that time, we will need Mr. Tang to go and provide guidance!"
Tang Yu: ? ? ?
Good grief, the thing I just gave you yesterday, and you're already working on it for me today?
And it's an absurd claim that it can be delivered within 10 days? This is truly just the legacy of China's traditional infrastructure!
Seeing Tang Yu's humiliated expression, Ying Zheng almost laughed.
However, he knew that if he smiled, Mr. Tang would probably feel uneasy, so he deliberately kept a straight face.
"I am aware of Mr. Tang's anxiety, but I would like to tell Mr. Tang not to worry about what will happen in 10 days."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu was overjoyed. Could it be that, according to Brother Zheng, he wouldn't need to take action in the future?
Just as he was thinking this, Ying Zheng uttered some devastating news that sent a chill down his spine.
"Because Mr. Tang will be very busy starting tomorrow, after all, the selection of branch secretaries that Mr. Tang promised to appoint to my posts across the country has not yet begun!"
"I've been watching this closely, and it's been bothering me for a long time!!"
Tang Yu: Huh? ? ?
So you really treat people like cattle and horses?
He originally thought that after he transmigrated to the Qin Kingdom, with his intelligence and the system's abilities, he would at least be able to live a life of luxury in this Qin Kingdom.
Now that I've realized it, it seems like I've time-traveled. I might as well not have time-traveled at all!
Before transmigrating, I worked 996, but after transmigrating, I was reduced to 007 under the command of Zheng Guo!
Is there really such bad luck in the world?
"No! Your Majesty, please spare me!!!"
As Tang Yu begged for mercy, Ying Zheng's smile deepened, but his eyes betrayed his weariness and helplessness.
"This Mr. Tang is not from the Qin state. As a person of immortality, it is already a great honor for him to come and help the Qin state."
"But why should I trouble the other party so much? If I could, Ying Zheng would not want to do this."
"Unfortunately, it seems that no one in the entire Qin Kingdom has the talent and ability to compare with Tang Yu, so Qin must have Tang Yu handle this matter personally!"
"Mr. Tang, thank you for your hard work these past few days!"
Ying Zheng spoke sincerely and firmly, while solemnly guaranteeing Tang Yu's behalf:
"After this period of time is over, I will absolutely not come looking for Mr. Tang unless there is something wrong with him. Mr. Tang can live the comfortable life he wants every day in my Qin Kingdom!"
"Brother Zheng, you've done this too..."
Fang Yun sighed halfway through his sentence and then agreed to the matter.
He already had a general idea about the matter in his mind.
……
"Have you heard? Ordinary people like us now have the opportunity to become officials?"
"How could that be? The world is now at peace, and there are no wars to fight. How can we become officials?"
"It's true, and they're not just ordinary officials; it seems even county magistrates are under our surveillance!"
A piece of news spread like wildfire throughout Xianyang.
That is, every loyal Qin citizen has the opportunity to participate in the selection of officials. If they are selected, their authority seems to be no less than that of high-ranking officials!
This left many people from Qin speechless and filled with joy.
At this time, the news also began to spread among the six kingdoms.
People from all six states also heard that people from their own states could participate in this selection, but the number of people selected would be much smaller than that from Qin!
Upon hearing this news, many people from the six kingdoms were outraged and immediately set out to demand an explanation.
We are all subjects of Qin now, so why should the people of Qin be able to select so many officials?
My other six kingdoms only have a handful of officials. Do you look down on my six kingdoms?
