Chapter 3 To solve the problem, we have to find another way
Xi Zhicai's body was already exhausted by the time he arrived at Chenliu.
It was Lu Yan who used a Peiyuan Pill, which slightly improved his physical condition and forcibly extended his life for two years.
It must have been more than a year since he last obtained the Peiyuan Pill, but Lu Yan never got the Peiyuan Pill from the system again, which shows how rare and precious it is.
Lu Yan's heart ached when he heard the Peiyuan Pill, "I don't even want to use it myself, so I gave the Peiyuan Pill to you, and you actually ruined your body like this?"
Lu Yan looked like he hated iron, which made Xi Zhicai's face full of guilt.
This shocked Xun Yu and Cheng Yu who were present.
"Is this still the same Xi Zhicai strategist who defeated the enemy thousands of miles away while talking and laughing?"
"I think he is like a student who has made a mistake and is being disciplined by his master." Xun Yu and Cheng Yu commented while watching.
After being scolded for a while, Xi Zhi finally raised his head and said sheepishly: "Sir, I have failed you..."
Lu Yan raised his hand to stop Xi Zhicai's apology and said: "I don't feel sorry for those things (that's weird), I'm just sad that you don't know how to cherish your own body."
"Compared to the great cause, Zhongququ's life is not worth mentioning!" Xi Zhicai said righteously.
"If your life is gone, what will you use to realize your ideals and your great cause?"
At this point, Lu Yan turned to Xun Yu and Cheng Yu and said, "Zhicai's body needs to be recuperated. If he is allowed to continue to ruin it like this, the consequences will be disastrous."
"I understand, I will take good care of Zhicai for my lord." Xun Yu replied.
Looking at Xi Zhicai's flickering eyes, Lu Yan took out his silver needle expressionlessly and said: "Fengxiao's health has suffered a lot in the past. But after my wonderful rejuvenation, he has returned to a normal person now.
level.”
"Um...sir, what is this?" Xi Zhicai saw Lu Yan pull out a long silver needle and suddenly remembered the "tragic experience" that Guo Jia once wrote to him in a letter.
"Changsheng, do you still know medical skills?" Xun Yu and Cheng Yu looked at Lu Yan's skillful movements in surprise.
"I understand..." Lu Yan answered without raising his head, then gestured to Xi Zhicai: "Lie down and take off your coat..."
Xi Zhicai was a little hesitant. It wouldn't be nice to take off his clothes in front of so many people, right?
Lu Yan saw Xi Zhicai's thoughts, and then he gestured to Xun Yu and Cheng Yu: "You two, I will write to you how to deal with the drought later. Now I have to write to Zhicai first.
Take care of yourself and go ahead."
Lu Yan had already issued an order to expel guests, so Xun Yu and Cheng Yu could only say goodbye and leave.
"Please close the door when you go out!"
"Crunch..."
The door was closed, and Lu Yan took out a silver needle and heated the tip on the fire to disinfect it.
"Take it off, why are you standing there?" Seeing Xi Zhicai still dressed neatly, Lu Yan said dissatisfiedly: "You're not afraid of that bastard Guo Jia, what are you afraid of?"
Xi Zhicai thought to himself: "It's just because I'm not as heartless as him that I'm afraid..."
However, seeing Lu Yan's extremely confident look, Xi Zhicai made up his mind to take off his coat, and finally closed his eyes tightly and lay on the bed.
"There will be some pain in some parts later, please bear with it..."
When Xi Zhicai heard this, he bit his lips tightly and did not dare to speak.
"tie!"
"Ah...wu..."
...
After giving Xi Zhicai acupuncture, Lu Yan took out his notebook.
[The fifth year of Chuping, the year of great disaster!]
[Historical records: Since there has been no rain in April, as of autumn and July, one dendrobium stalk is worth half a million, and everyone in Chang'an eats it!]
[Natural disasters continue, and even people in Chang'an have begun to eat each other. What kind of tragic situation will it be in other places? 】
[I have to recall the prevention and control methods in the past, hoping that at least I can ensure that there will not be a large number of hungry people under Yanzhou...]
[However...although there will be a famine this year, if Boss Cao copes well, it might be a good opportunity to break the deadlock around him!]
[Forget it, I am a clay Buddha crossing the river. Let’s deal with the disaster first and then talk about it...]
...
[Diary synchronization completed, congratulations to the host for successful sign-in!]
[Judgment of diary content: Yixia!]
[Your sincerity will always be rewarded. Your diary today is rated below B, and the reward will be lowered by one level.]
[Rewards are being generated, please wait...]
[Congratulations to the host, there is no reward.]
Looking at the word "Yixia" depressedly, Lu Yan rubbed his temples and said: "Damn... this is too stupid... I'll give you a B..."
This is the first time that Lu Yan has been evaluated with the word "Yixia".
There was no reward for subordinate B, which made Lu Yan more wary, "If the evaluation drops further, will it not even count the sign-in? Damn it, you still can't be careless..."
Having learned a lesson, Lu Yan put away the diary with a depressed and heavy heart.
After finishing today's diary, Lu Yan took out the slips and wrote down the prevention and treatment methods he knew.
【1. Improve the living environment of crops, build water conservancy projects, and develop farmland irrigation.】
[2. Build reservoirs and reservoirs. Build large, medium and small reservoirs, build ponds and dams, and configure drainage and irrigation channels. Dig wells and pools to store, retain, and use water rationally and formulate good water use plans to save water. 】
[3. Improve crop composition and breed drought-tolerant varieties]
[4. A variety of trees, increasing green area, can effectively increase rainfall]
There are really not many good ways to deal with drought.
Lu Yan looked at the third and best method, but crossed it out in desperation.
"Where can I find drought-tolerant grain? I can only hope for rewards from the system..."
In the Han Dynasty, people mainly ate the five grains of broomcorn millet, millet, wheat, bean sprouts, and rice, that is, yellow rice, millet, wheat, soybeans, and rice.
In the north of the Central Plains, broomcorn millet, millet, and wheat are the staple foods, while in the south, rice is the staple food.
Yellow rice and soybeans have now gradually withdrawn from the staple food sequence, and soybeans have even become a "lowly" crop eaten only by the poor.
Today there is no technology for flour fermentation, so today's wheat can only be used to make sesame seed cakes and steamed cakes, which taste very poor and are only the staple food of the lower class people.
Although Lu Yan knew the potential of soybeans and wheat in the past, he was already terminally ill with laziness and was really in no mood to mess with these things.
Now, facing the extremely possible drought, Lu Yan feels that he has put improving food on his agenda.
Thinking of modern crops that can even be cultivated on the beach, Lu Yan could only sigh deeply, "No one is more worthy of being remembered throughout the ages than him..."
"Sweet potatoes, potatoes... easy to feed and fertile, they are simply a must-have artifact for time travellers."
Lu Yan picked up the Tiandao Destiny Diary, then took a deep look at it, and suddenly swore,
"I, Lu Yan, am willing to trade Boss Cao's five years of single life in exchange for either sweet potatoes or potatoes!"
