The tyrant of the Great Zhou Dynasty starts by summoning a fierce general!

When the sky was white, the battle stopped.

The two of them lay on the bed in near collapse.

Lu Yao gasped for breath, as if he had just been fished out of the water at this time.

Lu Yao said in a whisper.

"It's a hot day, so it would be nice to have a cold drink.

After a big battle, Lu Yao only felt as if she was about to become dehydrated.

Summer is hot, and in this era of no fans and no air conditioning, it is simply an ordeal.

Pei Ning lay on Lu Yao's pillow and said.

"This year's summer is indeed hotter than usual, and if it continues to be so hot, I am afraid that there will be a great drought in the world.

Pei Ning said something unintentionally, but Lu Yao frowned.

"There is a great drought in the world. "

When the Zhangjiao Uprising was chaotic before, the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty was a year of great disasters and droughts.

According to historical plausibility, the most likely excuse used for the Zhangjiao uprising was the great drought.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Yao got up suddenly.

Pei Ning asked with some confusion.

"What's wrong with Your Majesty?"

Lu Yao said solemnly.

"I sensed chaos was coming.

Pei Ning was also nervous when he heard this.

"The world is in chaos?" Lu

Yao nodded.

"At present, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there is no downward trend at all, and if it continues to develop, there will be a great drought, if there is a real drought and the world will be chaotic, we must plan early.

Pei Ning also admired Lu Yao a little in his heart when he heard this, and he could still think so far in this situation.

"Your Majesty really cares about the livelihood of the people in the world. As he

spoke, Pei Ning's body unconsciously approached Lu Yao.

Lu Yao's body trembled, and he said slightly.

"I really don't have a drop left.

Pei Ning's expression was a little depressed, and Lu Yao quickly closed her eyes when she saw this, and spoke.

"The weather is too hot and it will affect my performance very much, and tomorrow I will find a way to lower the temperature of Fengming Palace, so let's do it tonight.

Lu Yao also forcibly found a decent excuse for herself, because the weather was hot and dry, otherwise she would not have died of thirst tonight.

Early the next morning, Lu Yao left from Fengming Palace with his waist covered.

After returning to the side hall of the office, Lu Yao immediately summoned Wang Meng.

As Lu Yao's current think tank, Wang Meng's importance can be seen.

"Your Majesty. "

The scenery is slightly exempt from courtesy, and someone will be given a seat."

After Wang Meng sat down, Lu Yao spoke.

"Can Jing Luo feel that this summer's days are a little hotter than usual?" Wang

Meng frowned and pondered, and then spoke.

"Not only is it hot, but it's been longer.

Lu Yao nodded, and said with a straight face.

"If it gets so hot, I'm afraid something big will happen.

Wang Meng immediately understood what Lu Yao meant.

"Your Majesty is worried about a drought?"

"That's right, the drought has become inevitable if it goes on like this, and the water network in the division is dense, but it's okay, but the land of Guanzhong has always been short of water, so dry and hot world, I'm afraid it's already a drought." The

two looked at each other, and they both saw in each other's eyes that they were worried about the dawn of the world.

Wang Meng stood up and bowed his waist.

"Your Majesty must have summoned Meng to come for this reason.

Lu Yao nodded, and then slowly walked down from the dragon chair.

"It is for this reason that I want to use the financial resources of the three counties to buy a large amount of grain in case of emergency, and if there is a real drought in the world, I can also do my little bit.

Wang Meng sighed in his heart when he heard this, having such an emperor who cares about the people of the world is the blessing of the people and the blessing of the Great Zhou Society.

The minister also thinks that now that the disaster has not yet appeared, the price of grain is stable, and it is most appropriate to buy it now, and when the drought breaks out, I am afraid that the price of grain will soar.

Seeing that Wang Meng agreed with his idea, Lu Yao also made a decision in an instant.

"In this case, from today onwards, all the money in the treasury will be used to buy grain, except for daily needs, and you will buy as much grain as you can for Zhao An, Zhang Shuo, and Zhang Han. "

Your Excellency. Although

Lu Yao has never experienced drought, he has seen a lot of descriptions of drought in TV and books in his last life.

At present, Lu Yao has no ability to help the world, so he can only try his best to ensure the stability of the people under his rule first.

With Wang Meng's order, three instructions were immediately issued.

The three counties of Beijing, Hanoi, and Hoa Thanh immediately began the mode of large-scale procurement.

As for Lu Yao, she is naturally not idle, and now at this level of technology, fans and air conditioners naturally cannot be manufactured.

If you want to cool down, you either have to hide in the shade or rely on ice.

And at the current temperature, it is useless to hide in the shade.

So Lu Yao paid attention to ice making.

If you want to use ice in the normal summer, you have to save it for the winter last year, and it is not only small in quantity but also very expensive.

As a young man who has crossed over from the 21st century, it is obviously impossible to succumb to the current level of science and technology.

The easiest way to make ice is to bring the water temperature below freezing.

Lu Yao asked Yang Yanying to go to the pharmacy in the capital to buy some nitrate for ice making.

The so-called nitrate is also the official scientific name of saltpeter, potassium nitrate, which is a very common substance.

Not only can it be used to make ice, but it is also one of the key raw materials for making gunpowder.

And the biggest feature of this thing is that when it encounters water, it will absorb a lot of heat and cause the surrounding temperature to drop.

Lu Yao found a large basin and filled it with water.

Yang Yanying squatted aside and looked at Lu Yao's actions curiously, she asked with some confusion.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing here? Boiling medicine? Aren't you sick? The concubine asked the imperial doctor to show you."

Lu Yao smiled.

"I'm not sick, I'm not sick, I'm going to heal it. "

Ice making?"

Yang Yanying didn't understand at this time, how could ice be made at such a high temperature.

"Your Majesty's concubine sees that you are really sick, talking nonsense, how can there be ice in such a hot weather?"

Lu Yao looked up at Yang Yanying mysteriously and said.

"I never tell lies, I say that if I can make ice, I can make ice.

Yang Yanying squatted beside Lu Yao, holding her head with both hands, with a look of distrust.

The concubine didn't believe it.

Lu Yao stopped what she was doing and asked with a smile.

"Let's make a bet, if I make ice, how about you promise me something?"

Yang Yanying's eyes turned around in his sockets twice, and after pondering for a second, he spoke.

"Okay! as long as it's within the power of the concubine, but what if you can't make ice, Your Majesty?"

Lu Yao laughed in her heart,

this little girl was fooled.

Although she was happy in her heart, Lu Yao couldn't show it on her face, so as not to be discovered by this little girl.

Lu Yao coughed twice and said.

"If I can't make ice, I'll give you one of your requests. "
