The problem of the construction of the railway from Daqin to Rome was solved, and there were no urgent matters that required Ying Yu to deal with in the past two days.

So he fulfilled his promise and took Wang Ying, Xiao Mei, Yu Ji and other girls out to play.

For harem women such as Xiao Mei, Yu Ji, and Sophie, being able to go out and play is a very happy thing.

Although the Prince's Mansion is not a deep palace compound, Xiao Mei, Yu Ji and others can move around freely without being restricted.

But after all, they were the concubines of the Crown Prince of Da Qin and would not go out easily. Even if they did go out, they would only be around the Prince's Mansion.

Nowadays, it is rare to go out to play, so this is indeed a happy event for them.

At the same time, on the outskirts of Xianyang City.

There are several fishing boats parked on a river.

But at this moment, the fishermen on the boat were not fishing, but were gathering together, seemingly discussing something.

"Tell me, what is this thing? It looks so strange and scary."

"I don't know. I have never seen this thing before. It seems to have only appeared a few months ago. Now there are more and more of them in the river. I can catch a lot of these things every time I fish."

"This kind of thing is not big, and it has a pair of red claws on the front. It looks like a river shrimp, but it doesn't look like it."

“Anyway, every time I catch something like this, I take it home, crush it with stones, and use it to feed livestock.

"On the fishing boat, several fishermen left after a discussion and started fishing."

.......

A few days passed by in a blink of an eye, like a fleeting moment.

With the efforts of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering, the steam pile driver has been manufactured.

Moreover, in accordance with Ying Yu's request, the Engineering Academy built several factories on the outskirts of Xianyang City and began to manufacture steam excavators, steam pile drivers, and various industrial machines.

At the same time, with the permission of Ying Yu and Ying Zheng, several cities in Daqin and around Xianyang City also began to establish factories to produce steam excavators and steam pile drivers, as well as many machines that are beneficial to the development of Daqin.

.

After all, the territory of Da Qin is very vast, with countless cities and counties. Coupled with the vigorous fertility policy advocated by Ying Yu, the population of Da Qin is gradually increasing.

As the population increases, there will be more farmland, more houses, more everything needed for life, and more job opportunities.

No matter which aspect it is, it is inseparable from agriculture and industry, and steam excavators, steam pile drivers, and even all the things invented by Ying Yu have no disadvantages for the people of Da Qin.

At the same time, the construction of factories and the development of various industries provided more and more job opportunities, which also made the lives of the people of Daqin happier, and more and more people gradually became rich.

People's lives have been improved, and Daqin's agriculture and industry are developing smoothly, which has also made Daqin's economic strength steadily improve.

And the people of Da Qin all understand that everything that is happening in Da Qin today was brought to Da Qin by Ying Yu.

For a time, Ying Yu's status in the hearts of the people of Da Qin rose to a higher level, and Ying Yu's reputation in the territory of Da Qin also rose to a higher level.

And just then.

Something happened in Xianyang City that confused the people very much. The same thing happened not only in Xianyang City, but also in many cities and counties around Xianyang City.

Although this incident had no impact on the development of the Qin Dynasty or the lives of the people, the people would complain and complain from time to time because of this incident.

Soon, the matter was spread into the palace and reached Ying Zheng's ears.

This day, morning.

Ying Zheng sat in the high hall and looked at the many ministers below with a calm expression.

"Everyone, do you have anything to report?"

Ying Zheng asked.

"Your Majesty, a strange thing seems to have happened in Xianyang City recently, and the people are talking about it."

Xiao He took a step forward, cupped his fists and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, the cause of this strange incident seems to be the appearance of a species of unknown origin in the streams and rivers near Xianyang City."

"This kind of thing looks very strange, even a little scary. It has a pair of red turtles, some are all red, some are all gray, and have a harder shell."

"According to my investigation, this kind of thing seems to have appeared a few months ago. The number was not large before, and the people did not take it seriously."

"But now the number of these things is increasing, which makes the people very confused. There are traces of this kind of things not only in Xianyang City, but also in many surrounding cities, creeks and rivers in counties."

Chen Ping, who was beside Xiao He, also took a step forward, clasped his fists respectfully and said.

"Well, I have also heard about this matter."

"Although this sudden appearance of species is harmless, its increasing number has affected the development of Daqin's fishery."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded and said.

"Not big. There are a pair of red turtles. Some are all red, some are gray, and they have a hard shell?"

"Isn't this crayfish?"

Listening to everyone's discussion, Ying Yu, who was still a little sleepy at first, suddenly became energetic.

"crayfish?"

"Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince knows about this thing?"

Wang Jian, who was also dozing off, also became energetic and looked at Ying Yu in confusion.

The conversation between the two also attracted the attention of everyone in the Qilin Hall.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is well-informed and may actually know this species that suddenly appeared."

"I had some captured yesterday, why don't you bring them over and show them to His Majesty the Crown Prince?"

After learning that Ying Yu might know this alien species, Nei Shiteng immediately went to speak.

"That's fine!"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, but Ying Yu did not object.

When Nei Shiteng saw this, he didn't waste any time and turned around and left.

Not long after, he returned to the main hall and handed a wooden box to Ying Yu.
