Chapter 171 Let Ying Zheng help with farm work When the eighteen princes of the First Emperor Ying Zheng left the main hall and walked down the steps,
Several curious young men chased Hu Hai and asked questions one after another.
"Eighteenth brother, tell me, what do sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn look like? Can you get two for me?"
"Eighteenth brother, have you ever tasted sweet potatoes? What do they taste like?"
"Eighteenth brother, tell me, how do you eat these sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn?"
"."
These brothers of Young Master Hu Hai were asking their doubts one after another.
Hu Hai enjoyed this feeling like "the moon is supported by stars". He pretended to understand and answered the questions of other young masters.
The second day, early morning.
In Zhao Che's house.
Early in the morning, Zhao Che summoned all the men in the mansion together.
However, there are currently only a few men in the mansion and some high officials.
The manpower is somewhat insufficient.
He was going to take his men to the fields to harvest ripe sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn.
"Brothers, please bring water and dry food. This farm work will probably last until dark."
Zhao Che looked at them and explained.
At this time,
Sisters Lu Pheasant and Lu Su also came over.
When he came to Zhao Che's side, Lu Pheasant said with concern: "Husband, when you go to do farm work, take my sister and me with you. We can help you."
"Pheasant, Susu, you don't have to go, just wait for me in the house."
Zhao Che said and touched her hair.
"But."
Lu Su wanted to say something else, but when she saw Zhao Che's persistence, she swallowed the words when they came to her lips.
"Susu, just prepare hot water for me to take a bath at home at home."
Zhao Che lay next to Lu Su's ear and whispered in an extremely intimate tone.
"Husband, I remember."
A simple sentence made Lu Su's fair face turn slightly red and she looked shy.
After another quarter of an hour,
Zhao Che was preparing to set off with the people in the mansion.
Unexpectedly,
A few more acquaintances came from the opposite direction.
One is a "car driver brother" who has the same interests as him. The other one is the driver's companion, an old man in his sixties who is in his 60s but energetic.
There is another child who came to be a disciple yesterday and was rejected by him.
The real identities of the three people are the First Emperor Ying Zheng, Wang Jian, and the young master Hu Hai.
When Emperor Ying Zheng saw Zhao Che, he immediately walked up quickly, ready to ask Zhao Che about "sweet potatoes, potatoes and corn."
Unexpectedly,
Zhao Che was the first to speak. When he spoke, he put his arm on Ying Zheng's shoulder and asked: "Brother Coachman, I am short of a few manpower here. If you have nothing to do today, how about helping me with the farm work? "
"I will pay you when you come back."
The voice fell.
Wang Jian and Young Master Hu Hai were both a little confused and looked at each other, and they couldn't believe their ears.
Later, they all admired Zhao Che's "courage". What did Zhao Che just say to ask First Emperor Ying Zheng to help him with farm work?
That was the First Emperor who swept across the world and frightened the six , when the First Emperor Ying Zheng heard Zhao Che's words, he was also stunned for a moment. This was the first time someone wanted to take him to do farm work, and he felt very fresh.
In addition, Zhao Che only told him this, which showed that Zhao Che had regarded him as a true friend and did not regard him as an outsider.
So, the First Emperor Ying Zheng said directly: "Okay, I just have nothing to do today, sir, let's go and do farm work now. As for the reward, there is no need for any reward. If you talk about reward, it is really out of context."
"Okay, Brother Coachman is a straightforward and honest man."
"Then, will your two companions come with us?"
Zhao Che said and patted Ying Zheng on the shoulder.
Before Wang Jian and Hu Hai could speak, the First Emperor Ying Zheng directly answered on their behalf: "The two of them are going to go, of course. If there are more people to do farm work, it will naturally end faster."
Wang Jian naturally agreed happily: "Okay, I will go too. Although I am old, I am very strong."
Young Master Hu Hai: "."
He stood there silently again, speechless, with an expression of despair.
He didn't dare to refuse his father, so he could only acquiesce.
Originally, when he came to Zhao Che's house today, he thought he could take the opportunity to taste the delicious sweet potatoes and corn that he had longed for.
Unexpectedly, after arriving, I didn’t even get a drink of water and was treated like a coolie.
Subsequently,
Zhao Che then distributed various farm tools and other tools needed for farm work to Ying Zheng and the other three.
After a while, Zhao Che walked in the front, followed by the First Emperor Ying Zheng who was carrying farm tools.
Behind him were Hu Hai, Wang Jian and others.
As for the few servants of Zhao Che's house, they were also following behind.
After the group arrived outside Xianyang City and walked several miles, they arrived at Zhao Che's fields. Thousands of acres of fields belong to Zhao Che.
Sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, etc. are grown.
After arriving at this field, the First Emperor Ying Zheng looked around with doubts in his expressions.
He seemed to see a tall green crop with thick round sticks on it. The round sticks were wrapped in green skin, and it was difficult to see what was inside.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng was very aware of all the crops that existed in the Qin Dynasty today.
However, he couldn't tell what this round rod was. He had never seen it before.
"Brother Coachman, let's harvest the corn first." Zhao Che patted the first emperor Ying Zheng on the back and said.
After the words fell, the First Emperor Ying Zheng fell into deep thought. corn?
Isn't corn one of the fresh ingredients that Young Master Hu Hai told him last night? Realizing that the farm work that needed to be done was to harvest these mature crops, Ying Zheng's whole body was filled with strength.
However, something embarrassing happened. There were several different types of crops in the field that he had never seen before. Therefore, Ying Zheng did not know which crop was corn.
He was a little embarrassed to ask, and seemed a little ignorant and short-sighted.
Fortunately, Wang Jian, who was accompanying him, asked his doubts on his behalf, "Sir, what kind of crop do you think corn is? I don't know it. I have never heard of corn."
"Look, have you seen those tall green crops? The round sticks on them are corn." Zhao Che patiently explained to them.
Zhao Che was actually not surprised by their reactions.
He knew that in the Qin Dynasty, there was no corn.
Naturally, the First Emperor Ying Zheng also heard Zhao Che's answer, and he looked like he suddenly understood.
He thought to himself, it turns out that the round stick he was curious about just now is called corn!
"You see, corn is harvested like this. After breaking off the round cob, it's ready."
Zhao Che looked at the three of them and taught them.
After hearing Zhao Che's explanation, Ying Zheng quickly came to the front of the corn, ready to start breaking it.
