Chapter 294 Trouble in Zhuolu County
I thought about it for a moment.
Su Yang then spoke, "Around 1,200 steps, or more than 1,500 if conditions are ideal."
"A thousand steps?!"
Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened immediately. More than a thousand steps?
Are you kidding me? It's only a little over a thousand steps.
How can such a small thing have such a long range?
It should be noted that even the most skilled archers, like the fierce general Li Jing, could only reach a distance of about a hundred paces.
But this little gadget in the opponent's hand has a range of over a thousand paces?
Even Cheng Yaojin couldn't believe it when he heard it.
If that's the case, wouldn't it mean taking someone's head from a thousand miles away?
"More or less."
Su Yang nodded. In later generations, sniper rifles generally had a long range.
Especially anti-materiel sniper rifles.
Ideally, it can reach 4km.
However, such cases are extremely rare, and Su Yang only uses the average value.
"I want this. If you have anything you wish to exchange it for, feel free to say so."
Li Shimin waved his hand and said directly.
A range of a thousand paces.
This can no longer be considered a weapon; it is a divine weapon.
Let me ask you, the two armies are facing off.
They were shouting insults at each other from across the river, and then one of them pulled out this thing and shot your general dead.
Can you handle this?
The exchange of insults between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu was at least a feat achieved by Xiang Yu, who was unparalleled in history, by forcefully shooting out the insults.
But this thing.
He saw it very clearly at the beginning.
All you need to do is aim and press that little button.
It would be no exaggeration to describe it as a divine weapon.
"this?"
Although Su Yang had anticipated this outcome, he never expected that Li Shimin would say it so bluntly.
The main problem is that, for the Wu Tang world, there are no resources they want here.
Perhaps, but they haven't started developing it yet.
Therefore, when Li Shimin made this request.
Su Yang and the others couldn't help but start discussing it.
Li Shimin did not urge him, but waited quietly for the other party's reply.
"Can."
Han Bei nodded.
For them, although Wu Tang did not have the resources they needed.
But there are others.
Just like the Meteorite Technique, their exploration is still in its early stages.
They still had no idea whether there were other realms above martial arts.
But Li Shimin and his ilk were different.
Li Shimin and his people certainly knew more about these things than Han Bei and his group.
If problems arise during cultivation later.
You can also send someone here directly to inquire.
"Emperor Taizong, since you want this spear, why not form an alliance?"
Han Bei said with a smile.
"By becoming allies, if we encounter any problems in our cultivation or other situations, we can come to you for help."
"And on your side, we can provide the corresponding supplies, such as guns. Or, we can help you with infrastructure construction."
"An alliance?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin began to ponder.
What Han Bei said wasn't entirely unacceptable.
He had considered forming an alliance.
However, given the other party's unpredictable whereabouts, Li Shimin gradually gave up on the idea.
"Aren't you only allowed to come over every now and then?"
Li Shimin asked.
If that's the case, then communicating would be quite difficult.
"That might not happen again. We might not be able to come over every now and then like this anymore, but rather anytime, anywhere."
Han Bei smiled.
"Of course, we are quite aware of Your Majesty's situation."
Tell me about it.
Li Shimin nodded, signaling the other party to continue.
"In our region, there is a type of rice that is extremely high-yielding. It can produce over 2000 jin per mu. I wonder if Your Majesty would be interested?"
Han Bei spoke with a smile.
Throughout history, what emperors have wanted most have always been just a few things.
May the country be prosperous and the people at peace.
The prerequisite for people's well-being is that they have enough to eat.
Their hybrid rice naturally attracted Li Shimin's attention.
Is this really true?
Upon hearing this, Li Shimin was first taken aback, and then a look of shock appeared on his face.
That's not his fault.
After all, during their time, even the best paddy fields could only yield a few hundred catties per mu at most.
He had never heard of anything that could yield 2000 jin per mu.
I've never heard of this before.
"Of course, otherwise how would my 1.4 billion descendants feed themselves?"
Han Bei chuckled and nodded.
"I want it!"
Li Shimin's eyes were filled with fervor; with this rice, the common people would no longer go hungry.
I will definitely be recorded in history books in the future.
He had to get his hands on something so beneficial to the country and its people.
"The matter of the alliance?"
Han Bei chuckled softly.
"We must get married! We absolutely must!"
Li Shimin spoke loudly, his voice filled with barely concealed excitement.
"Uncle Bao, do you think there really is rice in this world that can yield two thousand catties per mu?"
Seeing Li Shimin so excited, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but look at Qin Qiong beside him with some doubt.
"Perhaps."
Qin Qiong didn't know whether it actually happened or not.
However, since the other party dared to say it so boldly, then it must be true.
Otherwise, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
"Your rice yields are incredibly high?"
Li Shimin spoke with surprise and a hint of anticipation.
Previously, we were only focused on discussing weapons and military matters with the other side, and we didn't think about civilian life at all.
"It all depends on human effort. A long time ago, we also faced food shortages. But then, another group of people stepped forward and continuously researched rice. After countless experiments, they finally achieved such a high yield."
Han Bei smiled, his tone full of pride.
All of this is thanks to Mr. Yuan.
If it weren't for his painstaking research, the hybrid rice technology in Daxia would never have achieved such high yields.
Even in today's Great Xia, with its 1.4 billion people, it's impossible to be well-fed and clothed.
"In that case, this person can be considered to have a lasting reputation."
Li Shimin nodded.
If such a person were on their side, they would definitely bestow upon him a high-ranking official position and generous salary.
Such achievements deserve these things.
"Your Majesty, something has happened in Zhuolu County."
Just then.
A loud shout came from above.
A figure was seen rushing towards them.
Upon arriving, he immediately knelt on one knee.
He presented what he had in his hands.
Li Shimin took a look, and his face immediately darkened. The joy he had shown earlier vanished.
Upon seeing this, Han Bei knew something was wrong.
Could it be those alien races again?
But that shouldn't be the case.
Zhuolu is not exactly close to here.
Even if they were from other races, why would they choose Zhuolu as the place to cause trouble?
"Zhuolu".
Han Bei murmured to himself.
If he remembered correctly, that place seemed to be Chi You's territory.
"Perhaps."
Qin Qiong didn't know whether it actually happened or not.
However, since the other party dared to say it so boldly, then it must be true.
Otherwise, it would be a crime of deceiving the emperor.
