Chapter 777

Chanyu Touman had never given up on the plan to ransom Prince Modu.

He had been thinking of various ways.

But he was completely unaware that Prince Modu had already been sent to Lishan.

Because the Great Qin and Xiongnu borders were blocked by the Great Wall,

spreading news was extremely difficult.

To obtain certain news, one had to send a large number of people to infiltrate Great Qin to find out.

But infiltrating Great Qin was not easy, and the two were far apart.

The time required was also very long.

While Chanyu Touman was still working hard to ransom Prince Modu,

a major event occurred in Great Qin, far away.

Outside Xianyang City.

In the Lantian Camp.

The top court officials of Great Qin were all gathered here.

It had been more than half a month since Ying Ying Zi Ye handed over the sickle and other technologies.

And in these more than half a month, the bicycle technology had finally been perfected.

This bicycle technology and cement technology had been handed over to Wu Shi Luo.

The rest of the matter depended on how he operated.

At the same time, the technology for manufacturing potato chips and the like was handed over to Lady Ba Qing.

Both of them were putting all their effort into wanting to do something big, busy beyond measure.

By the edge of the field.

Ying Zheng stood alone at the very front.

Behind him stood hundreds of civil and military officials quietly.

They were attracted by the scene before them.

At this moment, their minds were calm, and they all watched the scene ahead silently.

In front of them was a large rice field.

Boundless, and it was no exaggeration to say it was endless.

White clouds floated in the high blue sky; the weather today was quite good.

Under the blue sky was a rice field that couldn't be seen to the end.

The rice was ripe, golden yellow, like a layer of gold spread on the ground.

As the saying goes, to be mature is to be like rice; the more mature, the more one knows how to bow.

Ying Zheng began the sacrificial mode for a bumper harvest.

Today, not only could the rice be harvested,

but even sweet potatoes and potatoes could be harvested.

This was simply a triple joy; how could one not sacrifice to Heaven?

The civil and military officials stood silently.

After the complicated and obscure sacrifice to Heaven was completed,

the serious atmosphere at the scene eased somewhat.

The solemn expressions of the officials also relaxed.

This was their second time coming here.

The first time was to harvest sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Now it was to harvest rice.

Usually, they didn't have the qualifications to come here.

If it weren't for the harvest season today, they wouldn't have appeared here.

This was because His Majesty had graciously allowed them to come and watch the harvest.

Therefore, so many people were gathered here today.

The officials began to whisper one after another.

"Today is truly a good day."

"Truly a beautiful harvest season!"

"This rice field is really beautiful, a golden yellow expanse."

"Great Qin having such an auspicious sign is truly Great Qin's good fortune."

"I really want to participate in harvesting the rice myself."

"This rice is much more beautiful than Great Qin's."

"The most important thing is that this rice yield is astonishing."

"It is much stronger than Great Qin's rice."

"This boundless golden rice is truly dazzling."

The officials were eager to try, all wanting to personally take up knives and participate in harvesting the rice.

As long as His Majesty the First Emperor gave the order, they would unhesitatingly rush into the field to harvest the rice immediately.

After all, this was Great Qin's first harvest of super hybrid rice.

They also wanted to participate.

Participation is what matters.

Everyone present was excited and happy.

It was no exaggeration to say it was a rare sight.

At this moment.

Movement came from outside the crowd.

Turning their heads to look, they discovered it was Wang Li leading a convoy.

Slowly rushing here from the outside.

This convoy was not large, with about a hundred ox carts.

The ox carts were loaded with some things.

After Wang Li arrived here, he directed people to lift an object up.

Along with it was a strange 'weapon', looking like a curved blade but not quite.

Because there were many serrations on it, and blades weren't like that.

Many people couldn't recognize what this thing was.

The appearance of fresh things naturally attracted the attention of many people.

"Prince, the things have arrived."

"Hmm, put them on the ground first."

Li Xin, Wang Ben, and others had finally waited for the auspicious sign to mature.

Finally waited for the harvest season.

Before they were ready to start, they saw the things the Prince had people lift up.

They all gathered around curiously.

"Prince, what is this?"

A group of people surrounded the threshing machine, looking and touching it.

Some people even reached their hands into the threshing machine.

Because they felt it was very strange; this thing was just made of wood.

Inside was a large rotating shaft, and the surface was embedded with many small iron wires as long as fingers.

They were all seeing this thing for the first time, so it was normal not to recognize it.

"This is called a threshing machine."

"I can't explain it to you clearly."

"I'll experiment and show you in a moment."

Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled; things like threshing machines were simpler.

They were soon manufactured by Mo Jiu and others. ===== CHAPTER 779 =====
