nChen Deng: “Of Course My Lord! With the result that you said of any evidence that it worked in your hometown, we can immediately carry out the project but the yield we have will not be as much as only Xiapi and Huai’An your hometown is using the Crop Rotation System”

nJia Xu: “It’s okay as My Lord doesn’t want to immediately implement the Crop rotation system due to the lack of manpower and without enough supervision, it can be used only to plant commodity crops which only makes the common people suffer” .

nChen Deng: “What a great insight My Lord have! I will personally oversee the implementation of the Tuntian system in Xu Province so My life can rest assured that it will go the way it is supposed to!”

nWhen Chen Deng finished what he was saying, Chen Gui entered the main hall attracting the attention of everyone there, Chen Gui who entered immediately greeted both Lie Fan and Jia Xu as both of them are his superior

nChen Gui: “Inspector Lie sorry I’m late, I don’t know that Lord Inspector is coming back to Xiapi today”

nLie Fan: “It’s okay Master Chen Gui it’s also my fault that I came back without prior notice whatsoever, I just finished explaining a new system that we can use to boost the whole agricultural sector in Xu Province to Chen Deng that I hope can be implemented first here in Xiapi”

nChen Gui: “May I know what system Lord Inspector wanted to implement?”

nBefore Lie Fan can answer Chen Gui, Chen Deng at the side explains the system to Chen Gui cutting off Lie Fan even though it’s impolite, for Lie Fan who is from the future and values the historical talent that will join him doesn’t care about what happened

nChen Gui wanted to reprimand Chen Deng but listening to the explanation that Cehn Deng gave slowly Chen Gui’s attention was turned toward the Civilian Tuntian system and the improved military Tuntian system

nFascinated by the ingenious way of improving the Tuntian system and using it to tackle the refugee unemployment problem that plagues Xu Province as they become the first choice of refugees from Yan and Yu province

nChen Gui praises Lie Fan and Jia Xu who improved the old system that was introduced by Emperor Wu to send soldiers to the frontier of conquered lands to cultivate the land turning it into farmland into a new improved system like this

nChen Gui: “I’m sure that if we implemented this across all of Xu Province the people’s suffering will be reduced and their livelihood will improve!”

nLie Fan: “Yes that’s one of the reasons we make this system also to counter the unemployment of the refugees as if we don’t give them work they will turn to banditry supporting the yellow turbans remnant to provide for their family”

nChen Gui was happy that the Inspector he served was considerate and cared for the people who had suffered thanks to the famine and the Yellow Turban plunder which could have helped the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty even though Lie Fan only did this to build his foundation for the future

nAfter discussing the Tuntian system, Lie Fan asked for a report on how Xiapi’s condition in the past few months when he left for his expedition to cleanse Yellow Turbans in Xu Province, Chen Gui reported the overall development of Xiapi this past few months

nXiapi have an increase in their harvest thanks to the introduction of the Crop Rotation system that has been spread by Chen Deng and under his supervision the farmers have an increase in the harvest every season

nThanks to the increase in crops, Xiapi became the center of crop trading by the merchants and the Mi Clan worked together with the government thanks to Mi Yu as the proxy between them resulting in an industry alliance where the Mi Clan controlled the prices of the crops monopoly the market while Xiapi Government reduce their taxes but receive cuts from every trade they made

nChen Gui also tells them to lower the prices of crops that were sold to the common people Fortunately, the Mi Clan agrees to this trade-off as they receive fewer taxes and control Xiapi’s booming agriculture industry which has an oversupply of crops benefitting the merchants as everyone needs crops right now from the common people to the nobles

nWith the excess supply of grains, the city is slowly turning prosperous as merchants from all corners of the country come here to buy grain and with the addition of the Tuntian system later they will grow even more prosperous

nXiapi has an excess of military personnel thanks to the army that Lie Fan has brought and from the captured yellow turbans that joined the army, but thanks to the Tuntian system that will be adopted they will receive more supplies as they don’t need to layoff the soldiers as they still need them to counter the yellow turbans

nAs for commerce, it’s booming thanks to the agriculture industry where money is flowing into the city in large amounts and the treasury is filling up which has been used by Chen Gui to rebuild Xiapi

nFinishing the report, Lie Fan is satisfied with Xiapi’s progress under Chen Gui and after hearing the report he remembered the water wheel sketch that he bought from the system shop taking it out from the system storage from his sleeve and giving it to Chen Deng

nLue Fan explained the water wheel to him and how it works which can help irrigate the paddy field and farmers can use it to get water for their thirsty crops, The wheels pick up water and then distribute it through channels that run to fields which help them massively

nThis can also be used to smelt iron to get a furnace very hot as blacksmiths need to blow lots of air into the fire, The water wheel helped to pump in the air and keep the flames going strong in which The wheel could also be attached to a huge hammer which would crush rocks or grain.

nChen Deng, Chen Gui, and Jia Xu were amazed at this invention as this can help their production massively by making weapons and flour for bread which have other uses that can be tried with

nJia Xu: “My Lord this is a breakthrough of the century! How can you think of this?! Even though we still need to make it and see if it works but this is amazing!”

nChen Deng: “Lord Inspector is amazing! You can think of the crop rotation system, the newly improved Tuntian system, and this water wheel project which can massively help our farmers and blacksmiths in producing their products!”

nChen Gui: “If these water wheels work then Lord Inspector has just revolutionized agriculture and the smithing industry entering Lord Inspector’s name in history with this invention!”

nLie Fan: “Hahaha! All three of you are exaggerating, I’m fully assured that it will work if made exactly like what is in the sketch, and let’s make Xu Province a testing site for the water wheel for a couple of years to see if it’s durable and can last long”

nChen Deng hearing Lie Fan answer immediately green with him as this can become expensive if it can’t last long and needs to make new ones every time the old one breaks which will burden the farmers and blacksmiths as they will become the main user of the water wheel

nJia Xu: “My Lord I hope that we are the ones producing and controlling the water wheel so it became our weapon to monopoly the prices in the market for these water wheels so it will not become too expensive for the common people”

nChen Gui agrees with Jia Xu’s motion and praises him for his benevolence but Lie Fan who also agrees with it knew Jia Xu’s purpose is to control these so they will become the only ones who knew how to make it and control its distribution to their purposes even if it will be copied by other people they will have the advantage as they are ahead

nJia Xu at side smirk and receives Chen Gui’s compliment shamelessly as his true purposes were achieved and with his lord’s discerning mind he will agree as his lord have the same poisonous mind as him

nLie Fan dismissed the meeting with orders for Chen Deng to become the head of a special group that enforces and supervises these two projects that will be implemented in Xiapi and then all of Xu Province promoting him from agriculture officer to the head of a special group that only answers to him

nChen Deng receives the order and gives his gratitude to Lie Fan for his trust in him from the start until now promise to do his orders to the maximum receiving excellent results in both of these projects which can contribute to the revitalization of Xu Province

nLie Fan after giving the order take his leave alongside Jia Xu and his bodyguards who were waiting in front of the main hall to go back to his quarters, Chen Gui and Chen Deng stayed at the main hall discussing the 2 projects together

nOn the way to his quarters, Lie Fan and Jia Xu were discussing ways how to change the allegiance of the Chen Clan from the Han Dynasty to Lie Fan solely as their loyalty to the Han Dynasty is high especially Chen Gui who has dedicated his life in serving the Imperial Clan even becoming a chancellor for one of the Imperial Prince

nJia Xu feels that they already see the ugliness of the imperial court now and even how Chen Gui was treated by the Imperial Prince that he served before who only care for themselves and live lavishly so they need a new way

nLie Fan nows that the Chen Clan is very loyal to the Han Dynasty even betraying both Liu Bei and Lu Bu to serve Cao Cao who at the time controlled the Emperor even though they knew that the Emperor is a puppet of Cao Cao but still served him as they believe that Cao Cao is a just man

nChen Deng was a more pragmatic and forthright person than his Father so his loyalty to the Han is based on his Father’s loyalty and can be swayed by how the Han Imperial Family is treating Chen Gui before especially when Chen Gui become the Chancellor of Jibei

nLie Fan proposed to Jia Xu that they swayed Chen Deng first as he have a higher chance to turn his loyalty to him with the right words and suggested also using Chen Deng’s admiration and gratitude to him, if they can make Chen Deng loyal to him then they gave higher chances to make Chen Gui loyal
