Li Yu nodded and said in a simple and understandable tone again: "So, as the leaders of the country, you must have an innovative consciousness and don't always talk about Zhihu. Look at the water truck we use now, which can water the ground. When the crops in the ground are high, will not the wealth increase?"

There is also the plough that used to be able to cultivate five acres of land every day and now it is ten acres. Can we increase the area of ​​arable land, and the grain will be planted, and will the harvest increase?"

After speaking in a row, Li Yu continued with meaningful words: "So science and technology are the primary productive forces and the fastest way to increase wealth."

"Another water wheel flows into the fields..." The craftsmen and farmers exclaimed, interrupting the discussion on wealth.

Li Yu understood that people's thoughts in this era were still relatively closed. Even if Li Xiuning knew what wealth was, she could not change the ideas of most people. Even if those in power understood this truth, they would not pay attention to it, and would not change the country's major policies. The main reason is that most of the wealth in the world is controlled by the aristocratic families. If business is relaxed, it will only make the aristocratic families stronger.

Li Yu did not want to participate too much in this era. He would take the initiative to help with people's livelihood issues, and he did not want to change the country's policies and guidelines. A nation's development naturally has its own rules. He did not have so much leisure to care about so many idle things.

"I won't talk about wealth issues anymore. We can't change anything for the time being. I'll go and see the water truck." Li Yu left on his own as he spoke.

Li Xiuning looked at Li Yu's back and thoughtful, and finally muttered to herself: "You must know how to make a country rich quickly, and there are ways to limit the aristocratic families, but you, a guy, don't want to do it!

As the water wheel rotates, the river water is taken to a high place, then poured into a specific sink and flows to the shore, and begins to flow into the fields through the crisscrossing ditches.

When Li Xiuning saw the cheering people, she did not consider the issue of wealth for the time being. Then Li Xiuning rewarded the craftsmen who participated in the water truck manufacturing on the spot. Li Yu also asked Uncle Zhang to buy wine and meat to reward the craftsmen and tenants, which also caused the tenants by the river to shout thanking Li Yu, the lord for his great kindness.

However, the parts of the water truck are relatively simple, and the processing speed of the wood workshop is very fast, but the base of the water truck is not easy to process. It is mainly because it is difficult to drill the stone parts. Li Yu asked Li Xiuning to find two professional stonemasons, and the installation speed increased.

In the past few days, farmers and tenants' enthusiasm for working can be described as crazy. As long as the water truck is manufactured, it will be quickly installed by the farmers and craftsmen. Within a few days, even the canals on the ground have been dug, and the water truck is installed almost the same, and it will be irrigated.

In the next few days, because the farmers did not understand the habits of new crops and did not know how much water they irrigated, only he understood that Li Yu had been staying on the ground with the farmers and personally participated in the watering of the new crops at the seed base.

In order to prevent the crops in the seed base from being affected by drought, they were irrigated day and night. At night, Li Yu asked the tenants to ignite bonfires on the ground, or held torches for lighting and watering operations.

People in this era have symptoms of night blindness and can't see anything at night. Even if the bonfire and torches are lit, the situation is just a little better. Perhaps they can only use the fire to see a few meters away, and no matter how far they are, they can't see it.

Fortunately, the entire irrigation work took five days and the crops at the seed base were finally watered.

Only then did Li Yu run home tiredly and lie on the bed, planning to have a good night's sleep and replenish the sleep that has been sleepless for five days.

Just after taking off my clothes and lying on the bed and getting confused.

"Sir Li! What should I do if the pepper seedlings in the greenhouse?" Uncle Zhang asked outside the gate.

"Damn, I am a monk, not your nanny." Li Yu, who was lying on the bed, was confused and shouted angrily when he heard Uncle Zhang's request.

Li Feier heard her brother's annoyed shout and hurriedly ran in, stood beside the bed and shouted, "Brother, get up quickly! Crops are important. When you finish the peppers, you can have a good sleep."

"Hey! I'm born to be tired. For the people of China to eat chili peppers early, please keep working hard!" Li Yu had no choice but to lift the quilt and planned to get up with clothes.

"ah!"

Li Yu suddenly heard Li Fei'er's scream. As for the reason, Li Yu's old face turned red. Damn, I forgot that I like to sleep naked. Now my whole body is still naked. That thing is also looking up at the beauty with malicious intentions...

It's really embarrassing to be naked and Li Fei'er is watching her naked. It seems wrong, Li Fei'er seems to be more embarrassing than her own.

"ah!……"

"You're so embarrassed," I said, "Girl, I'm so scared by you! It's not that you were me..." Li Yu hurriedly covered his naked body with a quilt, but just said halfway through the words and quickly shut up.

He doubted that if he dared to continue speaking, would the perpetrator become angry and took a brick and gave himself the victim a moment of his face?

"Ignore you." Li Fei'er finally stopped "ah", her face turned red, she threw a word and left in a panic.

"Miss, I heard you just now..."

"Li Chun, stop asking, you're so embarrassed, you don't know, my brother was naked just now..."

The sound is getting smaller and smaller...

After hearing this, Li Yu, the victim, stared at him, with his eyes wide open and speechless.

...

The next day!

As soon as Li Yu got up in the morning, he heard the movement of cavalry passing outside. When he opened the door, he saw a team of cavalry passing outside. The leading cavalry shouted, "Qianniuwei clears the road, all unrelated people stay at home, and it is strictly forbidden to go out!"

"Qianniuwei? Interesting, is it that the old guy Li Yuan came to inspect the water truck?" Li Yu said to himself.

Like the great guards in later generations, Qianniu Guards are personal guards who protect the emperor's safety and have always been around the emperor. Now they suddenly appear here. It seems that they are asking for a way for Li Yuan to avoid someone from colliding with Li Yuan's holy carriage.

As expected, after a while, Li Xueyi rushed over. Li Yuan and the court officials came over to inspect the water truck and asked him, the inventor, to go down quickly.

Li Yu didn't want to go, but he was a little helpless. Li Yuan might be his father-in-law in the future. He summoned him, but it would be impossible not to go. If Li Xiuning knew that he would dare not go, who would know what to look at him, so he had to pinch his nose and follow Li Xueyi to the riverside.

From a distance, I saw a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a golden dragon robe pointing at the ministers, and Li Xiuning was accompanying him and introduced him from time to time.

Since Qianniuwei had already cleaned up irrelevant people on the periphery, there were only ministers in the court nearby, and they also pointed at the water wheel around Li Yuan.

Li Xueyi immediately pulled Li Yu and walked forward quickly, then Li Xueyi stepped forward and said, "Stay Li Xueyi, the retainer, greeted Your Majesty!"

"Li Yu has met his uncle." Li Yu greeted him with a junior greeting. Li Yuan was his future father-in-law. Li Xiuning was staring at him again. He didn't dare to pretend to be a monk now. He did not dare to neglect him, otherwise this woman would not know how to deal with him in the future.

"Your Majesty, he is Li Yu. This time the two types of water wheels were designed and manufactured by him." Li Xueyi, who was standing on one side, was shocked when he heard Li Yu's name for the current emperor and quickly introduced.

After hearing Li Yu's name, Li Yuan was stunned. He had not been called by anyone for several years and felt quite friendly.

When everyone under Li Yuan heard Li Yu's name, they were shocked. This guy was very timid! They looked at him up and down with strange eyes. Judging from his age, Li Yu was only in his twenties at best. You are a little baron. When you see the emperor and so many ministers in the court, you must be timid or frightened. How could you be like him? Then you don't panic and ask the emperor and call him uncle?

When Li Yu saw the strange gaze of the ministers under Li Yuan, he sneered in his heart. He joked that he was a monk and a king of a powerful country. How could he wince and fear when he saw an ordinary emperor on earth?

Li Xiuning was also shocked when she heard Li Yu's name on the side. Thinking about Li Yu's previous arrogant personality, she knew his virtue, and gritted her teeth and wanted to go up and grabbed a few blood marks on his jealous pretty face. Seeing that you dare to pretend to be your 250,000 or 80,000, of course Li Xiuning definitely didn't know what 250,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 80,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 100,000 or 1

When Li Xiuning saw that his father had no intention of blame, she heard Li Yu call him uncle. When she saw that Li Yuan looked like he wanted to laugh, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Xiuning was really helpless to Li Yu. Although she was just a poor man, now she was a little lord, but she had no desires. She asked her to be an official, but she didn't want to do so. Although she was a princess, she had to look at her expression, otherwise she would dare to show off her face immediately.
