"Actually, it doesn't matter whether we are Huns or Daqin people. The most important thing is to be able to eat enough so that our families will no longer starve! There is a way to make money in exchange for food, and we can't just watch it without taking it...!

"

The old patriarch expressed his opinion with sincerity, "According to the garrison, great changes have taken place in Great Qin this year. There are many more work opportunities for the people, even farming has become easier and simpler, and the production of food has also increased.

Every family can fill their stomachs! Da Qin has set up many purchasing points among us Huns. As long as you exchange wool for money, you can buy Da Qin’s grain!"

"Yes, I support the old patriarch's opinion! I will go home and shear all the wool and send it to the collection point!"

"Me too! If you don't make money, you are a fool!"

"That wool is useless. Now that I can exchange it for money, I have to do it...!"

Several representatives sitting around the big tent expressed their opinions one after another, and their voices had completely drowned out the two who had objections.

The destruction of the Xiongnu has become an unchangeable fact, but they have seniors and juniors, so they have to find a way to survive!

After the discussion was over, the Xiongnu people went back to their homes and gathered the whole family together to shear the sheep!

Everyone has a smile on their face. To them, this is no different from going out to pick up money!

After the wool is sheared, it doesn't take long to grow back, so it doesn't delay the winter cold at all!

"I never expected that the sheep we have been eating for our entire lives has now become a cash cow!"

"No, as long as the sheep in our hands continue to breed, there will always be endless wool to shear, and we don't have to worry about starvation this winter!"

"Although the Qin Dynasty destroyed us Huns, it did not kill our people. It also allowed us to trade with the Qin people in exchange for food. In my opinion, our future life will be much easier than before!"

"Yes, it doesn't matter who leads the country. What matters is that our people have enough to eat...!"

During the sheep-shearing process, every household continued to discuss this matter, and they came to basically the same conclusion: whoever can keep them fed is a good leader.

…

"Mom, if you like this mustard-flavored leg of lamb, I will make it for you every day from now on!"

In the Yuxiu Palace, the young lady very obediently took a knife, cut off the roasted lamb leg piece by piece, and placed it on the plate in front of Lian'er.

"Okay! My son is interested!"

Lian'er smiled and nodded, gently stroking Ying Feiyu's little head with her white jade hands.

"Hey! You kid, I have so many favorite things to eat, how come you never listen to your advice to cook something for me?"

The mother and the son were filial, and Ying Zheng, who was being left alone, immediately gave up and dropped his chopsticks, pretending to be angry.

"Father, what you say is a bit heartless. Isn't that plate of potato chips on the table fried by my son specially for you?"

Little Shota rolled his eyes and pouted at the potato chips.

"Uh... the potato chips are delicious and crispy. Not only did I eat a lot, but you also ate less!"

Ying Zheng curled his lips and continued: "But then again, when you were still fighting against the Huns, the first batch of potatoes planted by the people were already mature. The average yield per mu in the Qin Dynasty was more than three thousand kilograms.

After plowing the ground again, the people planted another crop, and it will probably be mature in about a month, haha!"

Seeing potato chips, Ying Zheng couldn't help but think of the high-yielding potatoes.

In addition to growing grain, there is still a lot of surplus, so that it can appear on their tables!

If it were the beginning, even if he was the emperor, he would never be willing to eat it!

"Also, the high-yield rice has been harvested for one season, and the output is more than a thousand catties. The people are not willing to eat it, so they have expanded the planting area. When the next season matures, they will set aside the grain for planting, and then put the rest into the barn for storage.

Hide!"

In just one year, the food shortage problem in the Qin Dynasty has been solved. Every time he thinks of this, Ying Zheng smiles from ear to ear.

"Now that you have defeated the Huns for me, the price of mutton will gradually drop in the future, and the number of sheep skins will also increase, and the people will no longer have to use reeds to keep warm!"

Poor people cannot afford the expensive fox and white fox skins, so they can only simply process the sheepskin and sew it with linen cloth to make dough to keep out the cold in winter.

As a result, the people's food and clothing had been solved, and Ying Zheng smiled with great satisfaction.

"The sheepskin made by Xian Nulu is too thin. In the twelfth lunar month of winter, wouldn't it be so cold that people can't go out?"

However, the young lady curled her lips and looked down upon him very much.

"What? Do you have a better way?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked.

"That's natural. As long as my father is willing to give me a thousand acres of land, I will definitely let ordinary people live a warm winter!"

Xiao Zhengtai patted her chest and said confidently.

"What? Do you have any new seeds?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

This kid often tinkers with some weird things, and every time he brings great help to Da Qin!

"That's right, this kind of seed is the latest one cultivated by Erchen. It not only has excellent warmth-keeping effect, but also has a high yield. It is very suitable for planting in the Guanzhong area!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Plant it quickly!"

The more Xiao Zhengtai spoke, the brighter Ying Zheng's eyes became, and he even couldn't wait to see what the thing in his mouth that could keep out the cold looked like.

"I would like to farm, but where is the land?"

Little Shota pretended to be helpless and shrugged her shoulders.

"land……?"

Ying Zheng's mind raced rapidly, and after just a moment, he continued: "How about Li Si's land? If it's not enough, there's Feng Jie's. Their land has just been plowed and can be cultivated directly!"

"sure!"

Xiao Zhengtai nodded.

Li Si thought that as the prime minister back then, his position must have been the best.

Besides, cotton doesn’t care about the soil at all. It can grow well even on sandy and gravel soil!

But this is the first batch, and winter is coming, so we must ensure the production of the first batch, and fertile land is of course best!

"I wonder what your plant that can keep out the cold is called?"

Ying Zheng couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked enthusiastically.

"My son, I will keep it a secret for the time being. If I plant it later, my father will naturally know about it!"

Xiao Zhengtai winked mischievously and smiled mysteriously.

"Hey! Your kid is really familiar with me, and you didn't even tell me?"

Ying Zheng immediately stopped smiling, grimaced, and pretended to be angry.

"This kind of seed was carefully cultivated by my son. Before the planting is successful, I don't want it to be damaged, so the fewer people know about it, the better!"

"Not even me?"

"Absolutely not!"
