After Qin Shihuang Lived for A Long Time, All Human Beings Were Looking for Me Madly

Chapter 017 Teaching the law of enriching the country and strengthening the army!

It wasn't until a few people followed Su Tian into the restaurant and sat down that the Wang family's father and son's attention shifted from the two pieces of paper to the room.

They had no idea at all that it is possible to build a house without wood?

It is indeed the house where the immortals lived. Even if Qin Shihuang looked at it again, he felt that it was very novel.

"Your Majesty, the combination of the stool and the table seems to be very suitable?" Wang Ben sat down slowly with the support of his son.

"Yes, when I sit on this chair at noon, I feel much more comfortable than kneeling."

Qin Shihuang moved his body and leaned against the backrest.

The legs don't have that stiff and twitchy feeling after kneeling for a long time, but the body is more comfortable.

No need for Su Tian to say that when he goes back, he will have to be replaced with a chair according to this design.

If you can sit comfortably and eat, who wants to eat on your knees!

"Come on, try the yellow braised chicken rice I made."

Su Tian came out with a plate and gave each person a large bowl of meat and a large bowl of rice.

The fragrance is overflowing, making the father and son of the Wang family feel like they are dreaming just by smelling the smell.

And Qin Shihuang didn't know if it was his own illusion. He just felt that the aroma of this dinner seemed to be far more attractive than the fried noodles at noon!

In fact, Su Tian used a skill upgrade card to first upgrade his cooking skills to the master level.

After all, what you have to do, you can't treat your stomach badly, right?

"Hurry up and move your chopsticks while it's hot, don't look at it." Su Tian greeted the three of them to eat together.

As soon as a few people took a bite, they felt like they were in paradise, and the various flavors were beneficial.

Because Qin Shihuang had eaten the master-level fried sauce noodles at noon, he was a little more resistant to the temptation of food, and recovered a little sanity after eating half of it.

According to his understanding, yellow stew should be the unique practice of Xianjia here in Su Tian, ​​and chicken is chicken is also very common in Daqin.

As for the rice Su Tian said...

He picked up a chopstick and put it in front of him and looked at it carefully. He seemed to have a feeling of deja vu with such white, tender and sweet ingredients.

Unlike the father and son of the Wang family who simply thought it was something from the Xian family, the first emperor felt that this might be the same as the flour, and it was also the food that Daqin already had.

Su Tian seemed to see what Qin Shi Huang was thinking, and explained directly: "This rice is actually rice."

"Rice? This is impossible..." Qin Shihuang was startled and prepared to say it was impossible in an unbelievable tone.

But when he thought about the Immortal Master in front of him, how could he lie to him.

Su Tian said that this is rice, so this must be rice, so he forcibly held back the second half of the sentence.

Qin Shihuang asked very puzzled: "Xianshi, I have eaten rice several times, it seems..."

"It seems that the color is wrong, and the size of each grain is far less full than you have here. Is it because of the immortal magic?"

Su Tian was amused by what he said, and he was always immortal. Makes myself very tired.

"Where, it's just that the method of planting and cultivation is different. You have to deal with things in a hurry at noon, and many things are not fully explained."

Su Tian signaled that Wang Li was welcome to eat by himself, and then continued to explain to them:

"Now in Daqin, the output of planted grain is too small, the main reason is that millet is used as the main food."

Hearing this, even Wang Li, who was cooking, was stunned.

The three of them have a strange feeling, right? The immortal master actually said that Daqin's food production is low?

This... makes them wonder what to do.

You must know that before the reform of Qin, or in other words, there were other vassal states in the Warring States Period.

The yield per mu of grain is just over 100 catties.

However, after the reform of Shang Yang, the state encouraged the cultivation of mulberry.

The enthusiasm of farmers to cultivate the land is not small, and the yield per mu has basically doubled.

The highest recorded yield per mu has even reached 317 catties.

The Qin Dynasty was able to win the war to unify the six countries, and this solid rear food supply definitely played a key role.

How could it be said by the Immortal Master Su Tian that Daqin's grain output was low?

The Qin Dynasty usually used a square border of a hundred paces as an acre, as Su Tian had seen in academic research.

That is, three times the size of a modern acre, which is not bad under slash-and-burn cultivation.

Seeing the slightly embarrassed expressions of the three, Su Tian could also guess why.

I saw him shrugging his shoulders and said with a smile: "That's right, what I said is that the output inside Daqin is too low."

"If the water conservancy is pruned in the south, rice will be grown using the seedling method. In the north, it will be all planted with wheat."

"Don't say too much, if the tax is reduced to 20% of the original, the treasury will be much fuller than it is now!"

"As the people become rich, the country will naturally become prosperous and strong. When the time comes, why should the remnants of the Six Nations cause trouble?"

"The common people are content with the status quo, even if they have a mouthful of food. If they are not dying of starvation, who would do the thing that has a high probability of death?"

Hearing Su Tian enumerate these one by one, not to mention Qin Shi Huang, even the father and son of the Wang family who were gobbling down, stared at Su Tian in shock.

When Qin Shihuang heard this, his back molars were almost crushed.

Su Tian is not exaggerating. The seedling method of growing rice from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties did greatly improve the rice yield.

Daqin's current farming tax, the head tax of each household, plus some miscellaneous salt and iron and other small money.

Taxes have approached or exceeded one-third of the land.

By the time of Qin II, Hu Hai further raised the poll tax to two-thirds.

This is an important factor in the peasant uprising. If you can't survive and don't rebel, you can only wait for death.

According to historical records, since the end of Qin Shihuang, the battles against Baiyue and Hetao had already put a heavy burden on the empire.

The people's corvée and labor are heavy, and the state's conquests are frequent, which not only makes a large number of laborers out of production;

On the other hand, there is also a need for a large supply of military supplies, mainly collected from agricultural production.

After Qin Shihuang came back to his senses, he threw down the bowls and chopsticks, stood up and saluted.

"Please immortal master teach me!"

"Whether it's the stone-milled flour mentioned by the immortal master at noon, or the current method of raising rice seedlings, please let the immortal master hand it over to Da Qin together!"

Qin Shihuang felt that it was worth it, so he brought Wang Ben over to seek medical treatment today.

Otherwise, you will not hear so many ways to enrich the country and strengthen the soldiers.

Even Su Tian explained the hidden dangers of Da Qin in the future.

With preparations in advance, Ying Zheng had confidence in himself and would never repeat the same mistakes that Su Tian called the peasant uprising!
