Chapter 58 Chapter 58, Meet Lu Buwei again
"Your Majesty, this curved shaft plow should be pulled by oxen, but we were in a hurry to demonstrate it and did not prepare oxen for plowing."

King Zhuang Xiang nodded with satisfaction and coughed twice just as he was about to speak.After drinking the soup brought by the waiter next to him, he said: "Very good, very good, Yao Xing, you really did not disappoint me."

"Go and pull an ox, let me see how powerful this...quyu plow is!" King Zhuang Xiang turned to the attendant behind him and ordered.

"Your Majesty, please sit down and have a rest!" Zhao Ji looked at King Zhuang Xiang with a worried look on her face and wanted to help King Zhuang Xiang sit down.

Yao Xing felt complicated when she saw Zhao Ji's worried eyes.Over the past year or so, Queen Mother Huayang's Chu faction has been gradually suppressed, and Yingxi and Lu Buwei have emerged.Zhao Ji can be said to have controlled most of the court, but King Zhuang Xiang is only 34 years old now, and his illness is so strange that it is difficult not to worry.

According to historical records, King Zhuang Xiang was 35 years old when he died of illness. Looking at the current situation, he is afraid that his time is running out.

Yao Xing felt unhappy. The gentle and kind aunt a few years ago had finally turned into a scheming queen, and would soon even become a powerful queen mother.Even though she knew that this was the only way Zhao Ji could protect herself in the Qin regime struggle, and that only in this way she could help Zhao Zheng successfully succeed to the throne, Yaoxing still missed her gentle and kind aunt and felt the warm embrace.

King Zhuang Xiang swayed for a moment, and Yao Xing came to his senses and tried to persuade him: "Your Majesty, please have a rest first. It will take a while to get the cattle!"

King Zhuang Xiang was really weak, so he had to sit down and wait, but his eyes were full of light and he refused to move away from the plow for a moment.At this moment, it seemed that what he saw was not just a farm tool made of wood, but the good life of the people.

"Yao Xing, I would like to ask you, how much does this curved shaft plow cost?"

King Zhuang Xiang was really a good king. He considered whether the people of Qin could afford the Quyu plow, rather than using the Quyu plow to add much merit to himself.

Yao Xing replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, this curved shaft plow is made of ordinary wood, and the cost is only the carpenter's wages and the iron plowshare, so the cost is extremely low.

Moreover, Yao Xing planned to use [-]% of his share of cement and red bricks to pay for the carpenters' wages, so that the people of Da Qin could use the Quyuan plow as early as possible. "

Yao Xing knew that he would be happy if he said this.Then let him be happy. He is a dying person now. Use the things that have been decided long ago to make him have less regrets.

“But not every household can afford cows!”

King Zhuang Xiang coughed and sighed, and then said to the waiter behind him: "Write it down, this is what Zheng'er will do in the future."

When the cattle were brought in, Lu Buwei and Zhao Zheng also came over, saying they wanted to take a look at the agricultural tools that could improve people's livelihood.

It makes Yao Xing a little embarrassed, how can a more practical farm tool improve people's livelihood.

"Your Majesty, I have ordered people to breed cattle on a large scale. In just one year, Da Qin will be able to have an extra batch of cattle to distribute to the people." Lu Buwei heard what King Zhuang Xiang said and saluted directly.

Although it cannot be a one-time solution to the problem of people having no cattle for farming, it is still a solution. It is a step-by-step approach. I believe it will be available to every family in a few years.As expected, Lu Buwei was very thoughtful and able to seize every opportunity. He could order people to breed cows without ever seeing a plow.
