Since the first drum was installed, onlookers have been watching.

In the next few days, word spread throughout Yizhou.

King Shu designed something called a barrel cart that could automatically irrigate.

Then came the craftsmen, and the farmers began to cut down the bamboo forest indiscriminately, leaving the bamboo forest bald.

In just ten days, countless barrel cars appeared by the river.

There are large and small sizes, and some fall apart after a day or two.

However, it still could not stop people’s enthusiasm, and the repair continued to be used.

After all, this is much less labor than manual watering.

With a certain irrigation technology, there is no need to rely purely on the sky to eat.

Although Li Kei knew that passing this technique directly to Chang’an Shangxiang must be a great achievement.

However, as a son-in-law, you still need to have the consciousness, so you can not invite merit without inviting merit.

There are too many eyes staring at yourself.

After getting familiar with the royal mansion, Li Kei faintly realized that his royal mansion had countless eyes staring at him.

But I don’t know who it is, and I don’t know who arranged it.

Therefore, if you want to farm and develop obscenely, you have to find out the people in the shadows.

Or directly fix what they can’t understand.

……

Chang’an City.

Li Shimin opened a secret letter.

I looked at the content casually, and suddenly my pupils shrank.

“What has Ji’er done in Yizhou for the past two months? Let’s talk about it carefully. ”

The spy who transmitted the message said: “Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Shu came to Yizhou to tell the story of a merchant’s daughter who had become a concubine, and then rode and hunted all day.

Suddenly, one day, I accidentally fell into the water, but fortunately it was not serious. But His Highness did not go hunting anymore. First, a method called distillation was developed, and the wine was brewed and sold.

After that, he wanted to buy land and farm, but Liu Qianfang said that he couldn’t buy it, so he turned over the back garden, did not plant flowers, and planted a bunch of seeds that he didn’t know what they were, saying that they were vegetables.

Then something called a water press was invented that could irrigate the backyard ground.

Then he invented the barrel car and loaded it on the river. It is possible to water yourself. The people of Yizhou followed suit and did a lot. ”

After speaking, the spy took out two drawings and handed them to Li Shimin.

“Your Majesty, this is the drawing, please look at it.”

Li Shimin smiled, then brushed his beard that was not long and asked, “Then how effective is his development of this car?” ”

The spy returned: “Your Majesty, the effect of the barrel car is excellent.” The flow of the river can cause the water to rise and then flow into the fields. There are also craftsmen who have installed pedals on the drum car, which can also be driven by manpower, which is very useful.

His Highness only let the craftsmen make one, and installed it at will by the river and left it alone. But the people saw the magic of the drum and followed suit.

Within a few days, Yizhou had many more drum trucks, and it was possible to irrigate them without rain. ”

Li Shimin was shocked: “Is this really the case? ”

“Back to Your Majesty, it is true!”

“Good!”

Li Shimin praised: “Ke’er has finally grown up and can get something useful.” Go back and tell Fu Bo to find a way to buy a hundred acres of land for Ke’er. Instead, let’s see what flowers he wants to grow. ”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

After the spies left, Empress Changsun walked to Li Shimin’s side.

I looked at his secret letter and looked at the drawings for a while.

Finally, he set his eyes on the drum car.

Quite the report of the scout just now, he looked at the tube car in amazement, his eyes were pensive.

“Your Majesty, this car is really so amazing, how about letting the Ministry of Works do more?”

Li Shimin smiled and said, “The Ministry of Works is crying poor every day, how much can they do?” ”

Empress Changsun was stunned for a moment and asked, “What does Your Majesty mean?” ”

“Instead, I think I can learn from Ke’er’s methods. Make a fight, and let the people see the effect.

Anyway, the material of this thing is simple, ten people work together, and you can make one in two or three days. Anyway, it doesn’t cost money to cut bamboo, let them do it themselves! ”

Empress Changsun was taken aback, and then sneered: “Although there are some children’s plays, it is a way to save money and effort.” ”

Li Shimin smiled, and then took out a porcelain bottle, which was the wine that Li Kei brewed in Yizhou.

He said to Empress Changsun: “Guanyinwu, you came just right, this is the wine made by Ke’er in Yizhou, it is said that it sells very well and the price is very expensive.”

I don’t know how it tastes. However, looking at this porcelain bottle is very high-end. Come and try it? ”

After a while, the two poured wine.

A smell of wine filled the air, and the two were intoxicated by the wine.

That night, the news of Li Ke’s brewing and building a drum car reached Changsun Wuji’s ears.

……

On this day, Li Kei looked at the dishes in the back garden all sprouted, grew very high, and was in a good mood.

I was sitting on a stone bench reading a book.

Suddenly Forber came over.

“Your Highness, Your Highness, good news. There is a piece of land to take out, dry land, the old slave take His Highness to see how? ”

Li Kei was stunned, it has only been ten days, has anyone sold land?

This is just after spring plowing, which is a bit of a coincidence.

However, although it was late to plant spring wheat, we also brought potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.

It’s just right to plant it later!

Then he shouted: “Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and prepare the carriage.” ”

It was simply an acute child, Fubo and Li Kei got into a carriage and rushed to the field at a gallop.

Still not far from the river, it is a dry field that is perfect for growing corn, sweet potatoes and potatoes.

But when I looked at it, I found out. Wheat has already been planted, and if you want to change the seeds, you have to turn it over.

Li Ke’s brows frowned and muttered, “Which fool sells the land that has just been planted with grain?” ”

“Your Highness, before I came here just now, I already spoke to Liu Qianfang. This land is about 100 acres, 20 yuan per acre, a total of 2,000 guan. Because we are in a hurry to sell, the asking price is 1900 yuan, and the money is enough for us. ”

Li Kei was stunned: “1900 through? ”

Such a simple calculation, consistent money is equal to 1,000 wen, five cents a bucket of rice.

1000 liter is 20 stone meters, multiplied by 1900, that is 3800 stone.

According to the output here, it will take more than 30 years to pay for itself.

Damn, say it’s farming yourself.

But the land to buy is too expensive.

If I could honestly farm and not fight, would I live to be 30 years from now?

Can’t you buy rice directly?

Besides, it’s time to change places for me in a year or two, it’s so far away that the transportation is inconvenient.

I can’t see it myself, isn’t that cheap for others?

Also, Li Ke, judging by the crops on the ground, that the sale of land was obviously intentional.

As long as you are not stupid, you can realize that there are a pair of big hands behind your back that are pushing all this.

After all, the art of war these days is not in vain.

will be inferential.

Of course, if you spend a lot of money to hoard rice, it is estimated that you will die faster.

Merchants can hoard food, but they can’t do it themselves.

Fortunately, he didn’t have enough knowledge reserves, didn’t do anything with great fanfare, and he was surrounded by undercover agents.

Li Kei thought about it, immediately shook his head, and said: “The price is too expensive, Benwang doesn’t want to buy it, or will it sink again?” ”
