backyard.
Zhu Wudao had already come out of the study room, looked outside the formation, and saw Ding Bo Hengkong, with his hands behind his back, the wind was light and the clouds were calm, and his face was solemn, the strong man who was secretly protecting Zhang Ronghua from the Fate Academy?Bitter in my heart, if they were the only ones, confidently relying on the magic dragon flame formation to kill them, but facing the person in front of them, the low-level heaven-level formation was not enough, and they did not give up. Bite off a piece of flesh and blood.
The printing method changed, controlling the large flame formation of the demon dragon, condensing the peak blow, the flame dragon raised its head to the sky and groaned, the dragon's mouth opened suddenly, and bit it violently and ferociously.
Wherever it passed, the flames rolled and blasted out layers of air waves.
Ding Bo was disdainful: "How dare a broken formation dare to behave wildly in front of this old man?"
Lifting the index finger, the cyan aura condensed.
He didn't use any martial skills or supernatural powers, just relying on his true energy, he just pointed at random.
call out!
A huge piercing sound sounded, surpassed the space, and hit the flaming dragon without even holding on for a breath. Dust to ashes, dust to dust, the flaming dragon dissipated from the air, as if it had never appeared before.
The blue light giant finger continued unabated, and hit the magic dragon flame array.
Zhu Wudao's complexion changed drastically, and his reaction was quick. He couldn't be caught by them no matter what, and hurriedly took out a low-grade thunder bead of the heaven rank, looking like crazy: "Even if the head of the family dies, it will not fall into your hands."
Squeeze the thunder beads fiercely!
boom…….
The formation broke open, and the thunder beads exploded, turning into a sea of thunder that swallowed him. Before he could rush out, Ding Bo shot again, and with a wave of his sleeve, a large piece of blue light fell down, and he saw these seas of thunder that contained destructive power. , Dissipated in an instant, and the sky and earth returned to clarity again.
As soon as he took a step, Ding Bo returned to his original place: "Okay."
Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Control everyone!"
Mo Qi'an and Lu Jian rushed in immediately.
For a while.
Everyone in the Zhu family was controlled and searched.
in the courtyard.
Mo Qi'an reported: "This subordinate has already brought people to search, and there is nothing of any value in the mansion, money, martial arts and exercises, etc., have also disappeared. According to the servant's account, in the afternoon, Zhu Wudao's daughter Zhu Linglong and her teacher Grandma Zun Jinyue is still in the mansion, but she is not seen at this moment, I suspect that she has escaped with something."
Zhang Ronghua ordered: "The whole city is wanted, and then, as an official, I will pass it on to the states, ordering them to issue a wanted order, and bring everyone in the Zhu family back for torture and interrogation, to see if they can get any useful information, and then seal up all the properties of the Zhu family. "
"Yes!" Mo Qi'an replied respectfully.
Let them go first.
outside the house.
Zhang Ronghua joked: "Ding Bo, you hide really deep."
"The existence of this old slave is only to protect the young master. You are the young master's elder brother, so naturally you are also under protection."
Zhang Ronghua said: "You go back first, I will go to the East Palace, His Highness is still waiting for news."
Ding Yi said: "Brother, how about we go with you?"
"No."
Waving his hands, Zhang Ronghua rushed towards the East Palace, leaving a back view.
Ding Yi greeted: "Go to Huo's house!"
East Palace.
The prince didn't rest, he was waiting for news.
Something happened.
An Yue came out from the shadows and took over all the food and beverages. No matter who, including Shuang'er, poured tea, served pastries, spiritual fruits, etc., they had to go through her inspection and hand them over after confirming their safety.
The sky is falling but not surprised.
Sitting on a chair and reading a book is a great way to cultivate one's energy.
Yea!
There was a sound of pushing the door, followed by steady and strong footsteps, the prince knew who was coming, put down the book, Zhang Ronghua came in from the outside, bowed and saluted: "I have seen Your Highness!"
"how?"
Zhang Ronghua explained the matter again.
The prince said: "It's hard for you to find Zhu's family in such a short period of time. From now on, the focus will be on the government office and Zhongtian camp. The rest of the matter will not be solved in a short time. I will ask my father to send Taichu Demon God investigation."
"Yes."
"It's late, go back and rest early."
"I retire!"
Wait for him to leave.
The prince said: "Serve Gu to change clothes!"
For a while.
He drove in a car and rushed towards the palace.
As long as she is in Daxia, even if Zhu Linglong escapes to the ends of the earth, she will never leave.
……
Back to the house.
Shi Bo came up to meet him: "This old servant will go to the kitchen to heat up the food."
"En." Zhang Ronghua nodded.
Entered the room, pulled out the chair and sat down.
Thinking about creating exercises, perfected them last night, sorted out what I have learned, and then continued, there is no rush, patience is needed, and the strength of the exercises is related.
soon.
Shi Bo came in with four dishes and a bowl of rice, and said it was to be warmed up. The dishes were bright and freshly cooked.
After dinner.
Shi Bo left with the bowl and chopsticks, and then closed the door.
Entering the bedroom, sitting on the bed and continuing to comb.
Time passed, and the night passed in a blink of an eye. Looking at the sky outside the window, it was time to go to court again.
Zhang Ronghua had a smile on his face, he finally sorted it out, he can create exercises at any time, not right now, there is one more important thing to do, wait for the next duty to come back and then do it, to create his own magical exercises.
Put on official clothes, wash up under the service of Ma Ning and Ma Jing.
A quarter of an hour later.
Ziji Hall.
The gazes of some ministers glanced at Zhang Ronghua from time to time. Regarding what happened yesterday, they had already heard that the government soldiers and yamen servants were dispatched to investigate the perfume shops in the city. , then got the inside story, secretly shocked, who is so courageous to poison the prince?
Then he looked at the queue of princes, and the murderer was definitely one of them!
A strong sense of crisis came, the situation has reached this level?Make up your mind and never get involved, lest you end up being punished by the three clans.
The oppressive and heavy atmosphere reached its limit with the appearance of Emperor Xia. He secretly glanced at the prince, seeing that his face was very cold, and he couldn't see what was going on in his heart. He was also curious, could it be that there was no result?
Wei Shang said: "If there is something to play, if there is nothing to retreat to the court!"
Pei Caihua was still the first one out: "Report to His Majesty, the Shang Dynasty replied, agreeing to hand over the Tai Zhoutian Star Sword Formation."
Emperor Xia guessed the result: "Send a message to Emperor Shang that one Zuo Xianliang is not enough, let him send a person with sufficient weight to negotiate."
"Yes!" Pei Caihua complied.
Wait for him to return to the queue.
Mr. Zhou Ge stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Yin Xu Guowen of Lanzhou Prefecture sent an urgent memorial yesterday afternoon. As the harvest was approaching, the territory suddenly became infested with insects. It was still useless to organize manpower and troops to kill them. According to rough statistics, at least [-]% of the rice has been lost. The people panicked, causing the price of food to skyrocket. I have killed a group of merchants who were driving up grain prices with an iron fist, but I still cannot suppress the development of the situation, I implore His Majesty to issue an order to transfer grain from the Jinzhou granary to temporarily overcome the crisis."
Jinzhou granary is one of the large granaries. It stores a lot of grain and keeps it strictly confidential. It is guarded by the army and martial arts experts.
There are rumors that the grain stored in the Jinzhou granary is enough for a dozen prefectures to share for a year.
Thanks to convenient transportation and abundant water transportation, if there is a war, the imperial court will first transfer grain from the Jinzhou granary for consumption by the army.
Cui Ge's face was dark, and he asked sharply: "What is Xu Guowen doing? Why is such a big pest problem so suppressed now? If it was reported earlier, and the strong soul palace was dispatched to take action, even if there were more, it would be able to extinguish it. Lost more than [-]% of the rice in Lanzhou?"
Elder Zhou Ge retorted: "Lanzhou's geographical environment is very poor. There are many deep mountains and old forests, and there are many huge mountain ranges. The insects hide in the deep mountains and cannot come out. Who knows the exact number? If you lie about the news, you are not deceiving the emperor?"
"Is this the reason? As a prefect of a state, the city is guarded by strong men from the Dragon Hall, so you won't ask them to come forward to investigate? No matter how deep the insect infestation is, with such a huge number, can you hide it from them?"
Old Zhou Ge sneered: "You know what Lanzhou is like! There are many monsters and ghosts in the territory, and there are also fierce beasts and real spirits hidden. The True Dragon Palace is indeed very strong, but its energy is all involved by them. There are not enough people. There is no conclusive evidence. Wouldn’t it be a waste of manpower to invite them to come forward?”
Jiu Xuanji cursed in his heart, Shang Qingxuan's matter has not been resolved yet, and you have made Lao Tzu blame me again, so you can't change it?Immediately stood up and retorted: "The office of Zhenlong Palace in the state capital has always been subject to the orders of the government. As long as the governor, the judge and the pusher jointly issue the document, no matter what they are doing, they will unconditionally put it down. Get the government affairs done as soon as possible."
Old Zhou Ge scolded: "Shut up! There is no place for you to speak here."
"Grass!" Jiu Xuanji swears fiercely in his heart.
I really want to punch him, but I can't!The other party is the old man, so I can't afford to mess with him.
Boss Cui Ge was furious: "This is the Ziji Hall, and Jiu Xuanji is the master of the True Dragon Hall, why can't he speak? Tell me, which law stipulates this?"
Seeing that the two of them are getting more and more noisy, their people will end.
Elder Zeng Ge stepped forward: "The matter of Xu Guowen will be discussed later. The top priority is to discuss ways to solve the food problem in Lanzhou."
call!
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the rage in his heart.
Elder Cui Ge said again: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible to transfer grain from the Jinzhou granary. The current situation on the border is very tense. The Wu, Jin, and Wuxing tribes are secretly integrating their forces and preparing to fight. If the war breaks out, the grain in the Jinzhou granary will be crucial." Importantly, the grain in the rest of the granaries can also be used for other purposes. I propose to transfer grain from nearby state capitals, kill a group of big households who drive up grain prices, and confiscate their grain. The crisis can be temporarily resolved.”
"Fart!" Old Zhou Ge scolded angrily.
"Although the crisis has been resolved, the contradictions are still there. The people don't have enough to eat. It's okay for a short time. Once it goes on for a long time, the accumulated negative emotions will become more and more. If someone instigates it, it will form a riot, and the consequences will only be more terrible than the border. .”
Old Cui Ge pointed at the past angrily: "It's a bunch of nonsense! The people have hands and feet, and they work when they are guaranteed basic food and clothing. Although life is a little bit harder, the money they earn is enough for the family. The state government will send people to appease them. Lead the cultivation, and the crisis will be resolved! If you dare to jump out and stir up the flames, find someone who kills the three clans, and use iron fists to deter them, who would dare to be presumptuous?"
People from the two factions ended up pointing at each other and spraying each other.
As time passed, the situation not only did not subside, but intensified, more people got involved, and the quarrel became more intense, with red faces and red ears, pointing at each other and cursing.
All kinds of ugly words came out one after another.
Seeing that someone rolled up their sleeves and was about to fight, the scene was about to get out of control.
Wei Shang stepped forward and scolded in a cold voice, "Quiet!"
A trace of true energy circulated, like rolling thunder and thunder, everyone stopped subconsciously, looked at Emperor Xia on the dragon chair, saw His Majesty's eyes were cold, sharp and terrifying, they all shuddered, shut their mouths, and dared not say any more .
Xia Huang's indifferent voice sounded: "Look at each of you, what have you become? You have read a lot of poetry and books, and you are rich in knowledge. People who don't know will think you are shrews in the vegetable market."
All the officials lowered their heads.
Looking at Zhang Ronghua in the Tianji Pavilion queue with majestic eyes, Xia Huang's heart was moved, and he secretly guessed that Qing Lin was so calm, could there be a good plan?
Then said: "Besides these two, is there any other way?"
I also watched the play, it was very exciting.
Zhang Ronghua knew he had to come forward, so he walked out of the queue, stopped in front, bowed and saluted: "I propose to open the Jinzhou granary, transport the grain to Lanzhou in large sumer bags, and sell it at the market price to appease the people."
Cui Ge frowned. It is impossible for him not to see things that he can see. Why do he still do this?Thinking of Zhang Ronghua's character, he would not shoot the target for no reason, so he decided to wait and see.
Chu Xuping is worthy of being a good dog raised by Mr. Wei Ge. Seeing the opportunity, he jumped out immediately: "Mr. Cui Ge just said the importance of the Jinzhou granary and he couldn't move it, but you proposed to open a granary to transport grain. What is your intention?"
Old Zhou Ge watched coldly, and instead of standing up to support Zhang Ronghua, he wished that he would make a fool of himself.
Zhang Ronghua said: "I haven't finished my official speech, so don't interrupt."
Chu Xuping suppressed his anger: "I'd like to see what your opinion is! Solve the thorny problem that the two elders can't handle."
Slapped the palm of Wulong Yuling's belt, and took out the seeds of Shangjing rice, not the ears of rice.
Zhang Ronghua presented it with both hands, Wei Shang came down and returned with the things.
He spoke again: "Although I have just taken office, as a parent official, I dare not slack off for a moment. Combined with the many books I read before, many of which recorded crops, carefully calculated, and after countless experiments, the hard work paid off. The existing rice improvement doubles the original production capacity, yielding [-] catties per mu of good fields, [-] catties of inferior fields, [-] catties of dry fields, and [-] catties of barren hills and deserts."
boom!
The civil and military officials were shocked, and everyone looked over, first at Zhang Ronghua, then at Shangjingdao on the imperial case, wondering in disbelief, is he crazy?Even dare to say such crazy words, if you can't do it, aren't you afraid of being guilty of deceiving the emperor?
If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Chu Xuping would have wanted to laugh out loud!
God-given opportunity, Zhang Ronghua took the initiative to send the knife over, if he doesn't do it now, when will he do it?As for what he said, it's a complete ass!
If the variety of rice is so easy to improve, the Ministry of Industry has already successfully developed it over the years. With so many people, why can't they compare to him alone?
Not to mention doubling the yield per mu, even if it increased by a hundred catties, it would be a great achievement!Furthermore, can rice be grown in harsh environments such as dry fields, barren mountains and deserts?If yes, he will eat shit on his head!
"This is the Ziji Hall. Your Majesty is still sitting on the dragon chair. What you say is like water being poured out. If the rice seeds you just handed in cannot double the yield per mu, you are deceiving the emperor!"
Familiar with Zhang Ronghua's personality, and thinking of what he did in the Lingyan Division before, could it be that he has really improved a new breed?
Zhang Ronghua said: "Don't bother Chu Yushi, if I dare to say this, I will naturally be responsible for every word."
Looking at Emperor Xia.
"Your Majesty, whether it is true or not, you can take rice seeds and plant them in flower pots, so that Eunuch Wei can find out through his cultivation."
Chu Xuping panicked, was it really successful?
Wei Shang ordered people to bring the things, came down from the imperial platform again, stopped in front of the officials, planted two kinds of rice, stretched out his palms, and used his true energy to give birth.
this moment.
Everyone stretched their heads to look around. Ding Yi and Chen Youcai knew the inside story and stood in the queue as firmly as Mount Tai. The others couldn't calm down and wanted to get the result as soon as possible.
Form a circle in front to block the line of sight, and the people behind cannot see it, so hurry up!
After a few minutes.
Wei Shang withdrew his hand and looked at the two rice plants. The one on the left was a new variety improved by Zhang Ronghua. The ears of rice were more than double the size of the one on the right. You can draw conclusions just by looking at the appearance, and you have to weigh them.
Picking off the ears of rice, he put them on the scale in front of all civil and military officials, seeing the result in front of him, it was indeed more than doubled in weight, his old face showed excitement, and he turned around: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Zhang Fuyin has researched a new rice seed that is twice as heavy as the old rice seed, so it is true that the production capacity has doubled."
Emperor Xia suppressed his excitement, and said in a deep voice, "Try again!"
This time it was changed to dry soil without any moisture, and I tried it again, and the result was still the same.
With Emperor Xia's city mansion, he couldn't bear it now.
The rice yield per mu doubled, and the national power of Daxia increased, which has many benefits. The simplest point is that the people are full, and the rebellion will not happen. Studying in the academy, for a long time, there will be more and more talents in Daxia.
If you join the army, you will eat enough to eat, your physique will become stronger, and after training, your combat effectiveness will be stronger, and the quality of the army will be improved in an all-round way. If a big battle breaks out, even if you can't win the opponent for a while, the energy consumption will kill the enemy!
With its help, many things can be done.
Just as he was about to speak, Chu Xuping jumped out again, and poured a basin of cold water on his face: "Even if the yield per mu is doubled, it can still adapt to various environments. Whether there are any side effects or toxins has to be inspected by the Ministry of Industry."
Chen Youcai came out and said loudly: "Officer Ding Tui took it to the Ministry of Industry for inspection yesterday. I personally tested it one by one. There is no side effect. You can eat it with confidence."
Chu Xuping lowered his head to pretend to be his grandson, but he didn't dare to dance anymore.
Emperor Xia just had a good time, and before he had a good time, he poured cold water on him, how could he let it go?Fierce aura: "Slap your mouth!"
Chu Xuping didn't dare to disobey, raised his palm, and slapped it on his face.
Snapped!
There was a sound of applause, and he used all his strength, not daring to bully the king.
Xia Huang said: "Not loud enough! Zhang Ronghua, you help him."
"The minister obeys the order!"
Zhang Ronghua smiled and walked over. Chu Xuping was terrified and wanted to back away but didn't dare. Before he could react, the stormy attack came down.
The first palm fell, the huge force of the palm knocked all the teeth in his mouth away, and the second palm fell knocked him out, do you think it's over?Net think of good things!
Zhang Ronghua grabbed the hem of his shirt, twitched his right hand, bowed left and right, no matter what he did, let's talk when he feels comfortable.
After dozens of strokes, he almost stopped before he could figure it out.
As soon as the palm was released, Chu Xuping fell to the ground. Looking at his face again, it was even scarier than a pig's head, especially the mouth. It would not be too much to say that it was a pig's large intestine.
A royal guard stepped forward and dragged him away without giving him any face, which shows how angry His Majesty is!
Emperor Xia asked, "What is the name of this rice?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "Return to Your Majesty, it is called Shangjingdao."
"Not bad!" Emperor Xia asked again.
"Did you develop it by yourself?"
The research and development of Shangjing rice is a great contribution, even if you eat all of it, and you are still a county lord, if you share some, the result will still be the same.
Zhang Ronghua is not a person who eats alone. Ding Yi called him a brother, and he worked hard behind his back to do things. He had to take care of both public and private: "In addition to Chen, there is also Ding Tuiguan. Big help."
Ding Yi was moved, brother never forgetting himself, he opened his mouth hard to say that this matter has nothing to do with him, but his words were swallowed back, if he told the truth, Zhang Ronghua is deceiving the emperor, and the officials will definitely not let this go Opportunity, I had no choice but to keep my kindness in my heart.
Xia Huang's momentum was once again, domineering and unparalleled: "Zhang Ronghua, Ding Yi Tingfeng!"
"The minister is here!" The two replied.
"You have made great contributions to Daxia and the common people in the research and development of Shangjing rice, and your contributions to the community have surpassed the ages. This is a great achievement."
Paused for a while, it seemed that he was trying to stimulate the appetite of all the officials. Seeing that the heat was about the same, Emperor Xia said.
"Finish Ding Yi as Marquis of the North City and add a sacred Heavenly Dragon Horse! Feng Zhang Rong as Marquis of the South City and add a sacred Heavenly Dragon Horse!"
Nanzun and Beici, with Nancheng County Government and Beicheng County Government as titles, although they are county marquises, they are the most honorable in Daxia!The gold content and honor are so high that ordinary princes can't compare.
But there is no fiefdom, and no food town!
Guessing that they would be sealed as marquises, they didn't expect to be sealed as Marquis of Nancheng and Marquis of Beicheng.
Elder Wei Ge was the first to jump out: "Your Majesty, absolutely not! The Marquis of Nancheng and Marquis of Beicheng are of great significance. Throughout the history of Daxia, they have never been sealed. This case cannot be opened. It is better to change to other county marquises. "
"Second minister!" Elder Zhou Ge agreed.
People from the two factions, as well as the princes and other political opponents, jumped out at the same time.
Zhang Ronghua's people, Pei Caihua and his manpower!
Unexpectedly, Elder Cui Ge actually supported it.
Seeing that more and more people were going down, Emperor Xia was determined to eat the weight this time, and shouted: "Shut up!"
Sharp eyes fell on Elder Wei Ge.
"If you develop Shangjing rice, I will make you the Marquis of Dongcheng!"
thump!
Wei Ge was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, with his head on the ground, not daring to refute.
"I'm talking here today, who can develop a new breed like Zhang Ronghua, Dongchenghou is his!"
All the officials dared not take a breath.
Emperor Xia said: "There is no precedent, I will set this example, and this matter is settled like this."
The two thanked each other: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Xu Guowen was unfavorable in his affairs and seriously dereliction of duty. He was dismissed from office and promoted Lu Junxiu to Lanzhou Governor. He will take office immediately."
Everyone knew that this was Zhang Ronghua's iron club, and this time he got the honor. Not long after sitting in the fourth rank, he stepped into the ranks of the third rank, and there was no way to stop it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Junxiu came out to thank you.
"Order Yin Zhou of Jinzhou to open the granary to transport grain. After you arrive in office, lower the price of grain and restore the original price to ensure the stability of Lanzhou."
"The minister obeys the order!"
"Before the appointment, Tianji Pavilion came up with a reasonable charter for planting rice in Shangjing."
Five elders took orders.
Emperor Xia stood up, Wei Shang understood what this meant: "Retire!"
Hundreds of officials left one after another.
After everyone left, Lu Junxiu waited in place. Zhang Ronghua stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "When you arrive in Lanzhou, work hard and don't let Your Majesty down!"
"Do your best and die with no regrets!"
A double entendre, said on the surface to the people around Huangwei, but in fact expressed his position, no matter where the subordinates go, as long as you say a word, they will be the first to charge.
Zhang Ronghua was pleased: "Go!"
Eunuch Xiao came in at this moment, bringing two eunuchs with him. They held a tray in each of their hands. There were unicorn robes, purple and gold, half of the two colors, inlaid with many gemstones, noble and luxurious, showing their status.
"Congratulations!"
"It's a matter of duty."
He took the unicorn robe, turned and left.
I didn't go back to Shangjing Mansion, but I had to go to the Ministry of Industry to tell them how to cultivate Shangjing rice.
It took a while.
After dealing with the affairs in the palace, he left Suzaku Gate. Two chariots were waiting here. The sacred dragon and horse had already been added. His chariot had six chariots, and Ding Yi's had five.
When the news of the title of Marquis spread, Ding Bo and Shi Bo smiled and congratulated, and they got on the Tianji chariot to drive them away.
Ding Yihou was in a hurry and couldn't wait: "Brother, hurry up and put on the unicorn robe."
Zhang Ronghua responded with a smile: "Okay."
He took it out and replaced it with a purple gold collar and a huge unicorn embroidered on his chest. His four hooves were burning with flames, and he was not angry and majestic, setting off his aura to the extreme.
Take a look.
Ding Yi gave a thumbs up and praised: "Handsome! So handsome!"
"Brother, what about me? Don't you look more handsome in the unicorn robe?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "The second most handsome man in the capital."
"Brother, you still know how to talk." Ding Yi curled his lips.
"Your Majesty is really stingy, why can't you give me another set? You can change it."
Zhang Ronghua joked: "You can ask His Majesty later, and by the way, ask for a set for me."
Ding Yi shrank his head and made a frightened expression.
Arrived at the government office.
Tie Changlin came back first, and waited in the courtyard with Liu An and others. When he saw the two of them coming, he hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua nodded: "Don't be in a hurry to leave when you're on duty, I'll treat you to guests, and we'll get together in the Platinum Academy."
"Master is wise!"
Wave your hand and let them go down.
Into the office room.
The three sat down.
Zhang Ronghua asked: "How much do you know about the wine shop?"
Tie Changlin was puzzled: "Why do you think of asking this?"
"There seems to be a lot of money on the accounts of the government office. Once it is used, it will be gone in an instant. The official took the time to research two kinds of wine, one is ordinary wine, called Shangjing wine; the other is called Shangjing Lingjiu. , to increase the income of the government, and only with money can we do things, whether it is construction or benefiting the people, we will get twice the result with half the effort."
"Your Excellency is dedicated to the public, and I admire you!" Tie Changlin said seriously, admiringly.
"In the past two days, I have had a general understanding of the government office industry. There are quite a lot of them. Aside from salt, tea, etc., there are not many who can make money. The same things are available in the market, with good quality and low prices, and we make them. The cost of things is too high. If the price is set low, you will lose money. If you set the price high, you will not be able to sell it. Due to helplessness, you have to stop temporarily and stop the loss in time. The winery is located on the street behind the government office. It occupies a large area and has complete craftsmanship. , can brew two thousand catties of wine a day."
Zhang Ronghua was surprised: "So big?"
"How about the specifics? I haven't been there yet, why don't I go and have a look now?"
"go!"
The three got up and walked outside.
At the gate of the government office.
A carriage stopped, four sacred dragon-drawn carriages, with a "Li" character engraved on each side of the carriage frame, with four guards, the curtain was lifted, and Li Daoran came out from inside, looking at Zhang Ronghua and the others who had stopped, He walked over quickly and joked, "Waiting for me on purpose?"
"I guess you're coming, so I'll wait here ahead of time."
"As expected of Qinglin..." At this point, Li Daoran stared at the Qilin robe, and said tentatively.
"You, you..."
Tie Changlin took the words appropriately: "This morning, your lord and Changqing have been conferred the titles of Marquis of Nancheng and Marquis of Beicheng."
Li Daoran reacted quickly, bowing and saluting: "I've seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua knew that his old friend was half serious and half teasing, so he punched him in the chest angrily: "Did you see someone else?"
Li Daoran smiled, curiously: "There has been no major incident recently, so why did you become a Marquis?"
Zhang Ronghua briefly explained the matter.
Li Daoran looked at the sky and rolled his eyes, cooperating with himself for such a long time down here for nothing, but he couldn't replicate it, it would be hard for someone like Quan Daxia to find another one.
"An evening treat!"
"Platinum Court."
"it is good!"
Zhang Ronghua asked: "Just came back?"
"Yes!" Li Daoran nodded.
"As soon as the affairs in Jinzhou were handed over, I rushed here non-stop. I wanted to surprise you. Who would have thought that you would surprise me."
Chatted for a while.
Li Daoran left and agreed to meet at night.
The three of them got into the car and rushed towards the wine shop, not far away by a street. When they arrived here, there was a pair of government soldiers guarding outside, and Duozheng rushed up to greet him: "I have seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Open it."
Align and take off the key at your waist to open the lock.
Into the winery.
One word "big", just like what Tie Changlin said, turned around and stopped in the backyard.
Zhang Ronghua lamented: "What a good wine shop is vacant like this, it's a complete waste."
Looking at Zhengzheng, he told the materials of Shangjing Liquor, said a few more, to prevent leaks, and then ordered him to get it.
Quickly align and return, and put down all the things.
Take them into the room.
It is mainly made of rice, supplemented by other materials, and there are three common medicinal materials. There are [-] pieces in total. Although there are many types, they are all common, and the price is not expensive. Take clear water and brew it with black and yellow internal energy to save precious medicinal materials. time.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
Shangjing wine came out of the oven, a whole catty, clear to the bottom, without any impurities, and the rich aroma of the wine came out, which tended to be thick, and it was filled with three cups.
Zhang Ronghua said: "Try it!"
Holding the wine glass, take a sip, strong!very strong!The wine entered the stomach, like burning with a knife, very tasty, even if you wanted to forget it, you drank the rest of the wine and put down the glass.
Pour the prepared nine catties of water into it and blend it, stir it evenly, the three of them taste it again, the "strong" has become a little weaker, but it is still a rare "good wine", much better than the low-grade wines on the market .
As expected, Tie Changlin was from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he was very allergic to silver. When he discovered the huge business opportunity contained in it, his eyes were hot, and he hurriedly asked, "How does Lord Hou set the price?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "Ten coins are a pot, and a pot is a catty."
"A pot on the market is only half a catty, and some are even less. Isn't that too much for us?"
"Making money is one aspect, and giving back to the people is another aspect. Ten cents is already a lot. If the amount is not enough, it will undoubtedly squeeze the hard-earned money of the people. A pot of wine weighs a catty. Drink it sparingly, and it will last for a while. Press Calculated in this way, after the blending, it is also more than ten times the profit."
Tie Changlin saluted solemnly: "Your Majesty loves the people like a son, I admire you!"
Zhang Ronghua took out a pen and ink from the Wulong Yuling belt, wrote down the recipes of the two wines, and handed them over: "I will leave the rest to you, keep it secret, and don't let the recipes be leaked."
"I understand!" Tie Changlin asked again.
"How is Shangjing Lingjiu priced?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "The price is based on the lowest spirit wine on the market."
"Yes!" Tie Changlin left with excitement.
Ding Yi asked, "Brother, are you going to the Zhongtian camp?"
The Zhongtian camp is about 120 miles away from the capital. In the Zhongtian Plain, the defense is deep and there is a large formation covering it. No one is allowed to approach. If one is found, it should be dealt with carefully.
Shake his head.
Zhang Ronghua said: "Not now, the matter on the side of Shangjing Mansion has not been dealt with properly, you and Meng Qing alone can't hold back, wait another two days."
Looking at the capital.
"Taking advantage of the time now, go out of the city and inspect the small towns and villages below."
After leaving the wine shop, he ordered Duozheng to go to the government office to inform Mo Qi'an, asking him to bring someone over.
Wait for them to arrive.
Zhang Ronghua got into Ding Yi's car, and a group of people left from Beicheng and headed for the territory of Shangjing Mansion. In the destroyed stone village, other villages and small towns are thriving and developing very well.
There are flat and wide country roads from the village to the town. The people have smiles on their faces and are satisfied from the bottom of their hearts. It seems that life is good.
Back to the capital.
Just about to go back to the government office, a group of people passed by on the street ahead, led by Ji Xueyan, riding a sacred Tianlong horse, wearing a bamboo hat to hide his face, behind him was a disciple of Jixiatang, carrying a nearly ten-foot-high Zhulong is already dead. Judging from the aura exuded, he should have been at the peak of the Heavenly Human Realm when he was alive. He was riddled with wounds, sword wounds everywhere, and the aura of the Five Elements Grand Sword Formation remained. He should have been besieged to death.
Zhang Ronghua guessed, did she bring someone to kill?
Going out during this time is just for this beast?
It happened that Ji Xueyan's eyes seemed to be unintentional, but she really wanted to see her lover and couldn't help looking over. His eyes seemed to penetrate the car and landed on him. After a few breaths, he retracted his gaze and rushed towards Jixia Academy. go.
The two people were going in different directions, so the car continued driving.
Zhang Ronghua was puzzled, where did she intercept and kill this candle dragon?Has the darkness acted again?Suppress the question and ask later in the evening.
Go back to the government office.
He stayed until the next duty, and took Tie Changlin and others to the Platinum Academy. Today, he was named Marquis. For such a big event, it would be a ghost if there was no celebration. Chen Youcai, Xu Xing, and Lu Zhantang had already been notified.
When everyone arrives, the banquet begins.
An hour later.
The crowd dispersed, Zhang Ronghua told them to pay attention to safety, and rushed towards the mansion.
Long time no see, miss her!
Got outside the room.
The purple cat's flattering voice came from inside, the spoken language was slurred, and it was acting like a baby while eating.
Push the door in and close the door.
Ji Xueyan smiled and said, "I'm back!"
Zhang Ronghua said: "Wait in a hurry?"
"Just arrived."
Ji Xueyan got up, walked over, blinked playfully, and saluted: "I've seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua stretched out his hand, pinched her white and smooth chin, and said cooperatively: "Give me a smile."
Ji Xueyan pretended to be very scared and pitiful, her deep and bright eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she was about to cry from fright, folded her hands on her chest, and retreated backwards: "Master Hou, please don't! I beg you to let the little girl go... . . . "
Zhang Ronghua couldn't bear it anymore, feeling angry, he held the face in front of him and kissed it directly.
After a long time, the two separated.
Ji Xueyan's cheeks were so charming that it made people want to take two more bites. Sitting across the table, she sighed, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it! Just like this, he is still the most honorable Marquis of Nancheng." .”
"I didn't expect His Majesty's reward to be so generous."
"This unicorn robe looks quite handsome on you."
"It's not as comfortable as the clothes you make."
Ji Xueyan cast a pair of blank eyes: "From our agreement, you have taken a big step forward, and I am not idle here. Jixiatang's combat power is beginning to show ferociousness. With the Five Elements Grand Sword Formation, it will be even more powerful. Like this time, the original target was just a python monster, but on the way back, I met Candle Dragon near the capital, and immediately attacked, and took it down without much effort."
Zhang Ronghua frowned: "Isn't it just for it?"
"It's not that you don't know that the traces of true spirits are hidden very deep, and it's very difficult to find them!"
Zhang Ronghua said seriously: "I got news from here that the Zhulong clan is a dark people."
Ji Xueyan's complexion changed, she was cold and chilling: "The news is reliable?"
"Ah."
"It's a pity! It's dead, if not, we can still interrogate one or two."
Zhang Ronghua said: "People in the dark have very tight mouths, even if they press them, they won't get any information."
"Forget it, don't mention it!"
With a slap on the purse with her jade hand, Ji Xueyan took out a dragon ball and handed it over: "It's specially reserved for you."
Zhang Ronghua didn't want it, and returned the item: "I'm useless, it's a waste to give it to me, use it yourself."
Ji Xueyan frowned: "Give up martial arts?"
"At the current position, official duties are becoming more and more important, and more energy is devoted. It is very difficult to be like before. The two must make a choice. If this is the case, it is better to go to the end in the officialdom."
Ji Xueyan held his hand, clasped his fingers tightly, and said firmly: "I will work hard to cultivate and strive to grow up as soon as possible."
Zhang Ronghua said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, everything is up to me."
"En." Ji Xueyan responded.
"I'll wait for you to take a bath!"
(End of this chapter)
Zhu Wudao had already come out of the study room, looked outside the formation, and saw Ding Bo Hengkong, with his hands behind his back, the wind was light and the clouds were calm, and his face was solemn, the strong man who was secretly protecting Zhang Ronghua from the Fate Academy?Bitter in my heart, if they were the only ones, confidently relying on the magic dragon flame formation to kill them, but facing the person in front of them, the low-level heaven-level formation was not enough, and they did not give up. Bite off a piece of flesh and blood.
The printing method changed, controlling the large flame formation of the demon dragon, condensing the peak blow, the flame dragon raised its head to the sky and groaned, the dragon's mouth opened suddenly, and bit it violently and ferociously.
Wherever it passed, the flames rolled and blasted out layers of air waves.
Ding Bo was disdainful: "How dare a broken formation dare to behave wildly in front of this old man?"
Lifting the index finger, the cyan aura condensed.
He didn't use any martial skills or supernatural powers, just relying on his true energy, he just pointed at random.
call out!
A huge piercing sound sounded, surpassed the space, and hit the flaming dragon without even holding on for a breath. Dust to ashes, dust to dust, the flaming dragon dissipated from the air, as if it had never appeared before.
The blue light giant finger continued unabated, and hit the magic dragon flame array.
Zhu Wudao's complexion changed drastically, and his reaction was quick. He couldn't be caught by them no matter what, and hurriedly took out a low-grade thunder bead of the heaven rank, looking like crazy: "Even if the head of the family dies, it will not fall into your hands."
Squeeze the thunder beads fiercely!
boom…….
The formation broke open, and the thunder beads exploded, turning into a sea of thunder that swallowed him. Before he could rush out, Ding Bo shot again, and with a wave of his sleeve, a large piece of blue light fell down, and he saw these seas of thunder that contained destructive power. , Dissipated in an instant, and the sky and earth returned to clarity again.
As soon as he took a step, Ding Bo returned to his original place: "Okay."
Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Control everyone!"
Mo Qi'an and Lu Jian rushed in immediately.
For a while.
Everyone in the Zhu family was controlled and searched.
in the courtyard.
Mo Qi'an reported: "This subordinate has already brought people to search, and there is nothing of any value in the mansion, money, martial arts and exercises, etc., have also disappeared. According to the servant's account, in the afternoon, Zhu Wudao's daughter Zhu Linglong and her teacher Grandma Zun Jinyue is still in the mansion, but she is not seen at this moment, I suspect that she has escaped with something."
Zhang Ronghua ordered: "The whole city is wanted, and then, as an official, I will pass it on to the states, ordering them to issue a wanted order, and bring everyone in the Zhu family back for torture and interrogation, to see if they can get any useful information, and then seal up all the properties of the Zhu family. "
"Yes!" Mo Qi'an replied respectfully.
Let them go first.
outside the house.
Zhang Ronghua joked: "Ding Bo, you hide really deep."
"The existence of this old slave is only to protect the young master. You are the young master's elder brother, so naturally you are also under protection."
Zhang Ronghua said: "You go back first, I will go to the East Palace, His Highness is still waiting for news."
Ding Yi said: "Brother, how about we go with you?"
"No."
Waving his hands, Zhang Ronghua rushed towards the East Palace, leaving a back view.
Ding Yi greeted: "Go to Huo's house!"
East Palace.
The prince didn't rest, he was waiting for news.
Something happened.
An Yue came out from the shadows and took over all the food and beverages. No matter who, including Shuang'er, poured tea, served pastries, spiritual fruits, etc., they had to go through her inspection and hand them over after confirming their safety.
The sky is falling but not surprised.
Sitting on a chair and reading a book is a great way to cultivate one's energy.
Yea!
There was a sound of pushing the door, followed by steady and strong footsteps, the prince knew who was coming, put down the book, Zhang Ronghua came in from the outside, bowed and saluted: "I have seen Your Highness!"
"how?"
Zhang Ronghua explained the matter again.
The prince said: "It's hard for you to find Zhu's family in such a short period of time. From now on, the focus will be on the government office and Zhongtian camp. The rest of the matter will not be solved in a short time. I will ask my father to send Taichu Demon God investigation."
"Yes."
"It's late, go back and rest early."
"I retire!"
Wait for him to leave.
The prince said: "Serve Gu to change clothes!"
For a while.
He drove in a car and rushed towards the palace.
As long as she is in Daxia, even if Zhu Linglong escapes to the ends of the earth, she will never leave.
……
Back to the house.
Shi Bo came up to meet him: "This old servant will go to the kitchen to heat up the food."
"En." Zhang Ronghua nodded.
Entered the room, pulled out the chair and sat down.
Thinking about creating exercises, perfected them last night, sorted out what I have learned, and then continued, there is no rush, patience is needed, and the strength of the exercises is related.
soon.
Shi Bo came in with four dishes and a bowl of rice, and said it was to be warmed up. The dishes were bright and freshly cooked.
After dinner.
Shi Bo left with the bowl and chopsticks, and then closed the door.
Entering the bedroom, sitting on the bed and continuing to comb.
Time passed, and the night passed in a blink of an eye. Looking at the sky outside the window, it was time to go to court again.
Zhang Ronghua had a smile on his face, he finally sorted it out, he can create exercises at any time, not right now, there is one more important thing to do, wait for the next duty to come back and then do it, to create his own magical exercises.
Put on official clothes, wash up under the service of Ma Ning and Ma Jing.
A quarter of an hour later.
Ziji Hall.
The gazes of some ministers glanced at Zhang Ronghua from time to time. Regarding what happened yesterday, they had already heard that the government soldiers and yamen servants were dispatched to investigate the perfume shops in the city. , then got the inside story, secretly shocked, who is so courageous to poison the prince?
Then he looked at the queue of princes, and the murderer was definitely one of them!
A strong sense of crisis came, the situation has reached this level?Make up your mind and never get involved, lest you end up being punished by the three clans.
The oppressive and heavy atmosphere reached its limit with the appearance of Emperor Xia. He secretly glanced at the prince, seeing that his face was very cold, and he couldn't see what was going on in his heart. He was also curious, could it be that there was no result?
Wei Shang said: "If there is something to play, if there is nothing to retreat to the court!"
Pei Caihua was still the first one out: "Report to His Majesty, the Shang Dynasty replied, agreeing to hand over the Tai Zhoutian Star Sword Formation."
Emperor Xia guessed the result: "Send a message to Emperor Shang that one Zuo Xianliang is not enough, let him send a person with sufficient weight to negotiate."
"Yes!" Pei Caihua complied.
Wait for him to return to the queue.
Mr. Zhou Ge stood up and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Yin Xu Guowen of Lanzhou Prefecture sent an urgent memorial yesterday afternoon. As the harvest was approaching, the territory suddenly became infested with insects. It was still useless to organize manpower and troops to kill them. According to rough statistics, at least [-]% of the rice has been lost. The people panicked, causing the price of food to skyrocket. I have killed a group of merchants who were driving up grain prices with an iron fist, but I still cannot suppress the development of the situation, I implore His Majesty to issue an order to transfer grain from the Jinzhou granary to temporarily overcome the crisis."
Jinzhou granary is one of the large granaries. It stores a lot of grain and keeps it strictly confidential. It is guarded by the army and martial arts experts.
There are rumors that the grain stored in the Jinzhou granary is enough for a dozen prefectures to share for a year.
Thanks to convenient transportation and abundant water transportation, if there is a war, the imperial court will first transfer grain from the Jinzhou granary for consumption by the army.
Cui Ge's face was dark, and he asked sharply: "What is Xu Guowen doing? Why is such a big pest problem so suppressed now? If it was reported earlier, and the strong soul palace was dispatched to take action, even if there were more, it would be able to extinguish it. Lost more than [-]% of the rice in Lanzhou?"
Elder Zhou Ge retorted: "Lanzhou's geographical environment is very poor. There are many deep mountains and old forests, and there are many huge mountain ranges. The insects hide in the deep mountains and cannot come out. Who knows the exact number? If you lie about the news, you are not deceiving the emperor?"
"Is this the reason? As a prefect of a state, the city is guarded by strong men from the Dragon Hall, so you won't ask them to come forward to investigate? No matter how deep the insect infestation is, with such a huge number, can you hide it from them?"
Old Zhou Ge sneered: "You know what Lanzhou is like! There are many monsters and ghosts in the territory, and there are also fierce beasts and real spirits hidden. The True Dragon Palace is indeed very strong, but its energy is all involved by them. There are not enough people. There is no conclusive evidence. Wouldn’t it be a waste of manpower to invite them to come forward?”
Jiu Xuanji cursed in his heart, Shang Qingxuan's matter has not been resolved yet, and you have made Lao Tzu blame me again, so you can't change it?Immediately stood up and retorted: "The office of Zhenlong Palace in the state capital has always been subject to the orders of the government. As long as the governor, the judge and the pusher jointly issue the document, no matter what they are doing, they will unconditionally put it down. Get the government affairs done as soon as possible."
Old Zhou Ge scolded: "Shut up! There is no place for you to speak here."
"Grass!" Jiu Xuanji swears fiercely in his heart.
I really want to punch him, but I can't!The other party is the old man, so I can't afford to mess with him.
Boss Cui Ge was furious: "This is the Ziji Hall, and Jiu Xuanji is the master of the True Dragon Hall, why can't he speak? Tell me, which law stipulates this?"
Seeing that the two of them are getting more and more noisy, their people will end.
Elder Zeng Ge stepped forward: "The matter of Xu Guowen will be discussed later. The top priority is to discuss ways to solve the food problem in Lanzhou."
call!
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the rage in his heart.
Elder Cui Ge said again: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible to transfer grain from the Jinzhou granary. The current situation on the border is very tense. The Wu, Jin, and Wuxing tribes are secretly integrating their forces and preparing to fight. If the war breaks out, the grain in the Jinzhou granary will be crucial." Importantly, the grain in the rest of the granaries can also be used for other purposes. I propose to transfer grain from nearby state capitals, kill a group of big households who drive up grain prices, and confiscate their grain. The crisis can be temporarily resolved.”
"Fart!" Old Zhou Ge scolded angrily.
"Although the crisis has been resolved, the contradictions are still there. The people don't have enough to eat. It's okay for a short time. Once it goes on for a long time, the accumulated negative emotions will become more and more. If someone instigates it, it will form a riot, and the consequences will only be more terrible than the border. .”
Old Cui Ge pointed at the past angrily: "It's a bunch of nonsense! The people have hands and feet, and they work when they are guaranteed basic food and clothing. Although life is a little bit harder, the money they earn is enough for the family. The state government will send people to appease them. Lead the cultivation, and the crisis will be resolved! If you dare to jump out and stir up the flames, find someone who kills the three clans, and use iron fists to deter them, who would dare to be presumptuous?"
People from the two factions ended up pointing at each other and spraying each other.
As time passed, the situation not only did not subside, but intensified, more people got involved, and the quarrel became more intense, with red faces and red ears, pointing at each other and cursing.
All kinds of ugly words came out one after another.
Seeing that someone rolled up their sleeves and was about to fight, the scene was about to get out of control.
Wei Shang stepped forward and scolded in a cold voice, "Quiet!"
A trace of true energy circulated, like rolling thunder and thunder, everyone stopped subconsciously, looked at Emperor Xia on the dragon chair, saw His Majesty's eyes were cold, sharp and terrifying, they all shuddered, shut their mouths, and dared not say any more .
Xia Huang's indifferent voice sounded: "Look at each of you, what have you become? You have read a lot of poetry and books, and you are rich in knowledge. People who don't know will think you are shrews in the vegetable market."
All the officials lowered their heads.
Looking at Zhang Ronghua in the Tianji Pavilion queue with majestic eyes, Xia Huang's heart was moved, and he secretly guessed that Qing Lin was so calm, could there be a good plan?
Then said: "Besides these two, is there any other way?"
I also watched the play, it was very exciting.
Zhang Ronghua knew he had to come forward, so he walked out of the queue, stopped in front, bowed and saluted: "I propose to open the Jinzhou granary, transport the grain to Lanzhou in large sumer bags, and sell it at the market price to appease the people."
Cui Ge frowned. It is impossible for him not to see things that he can see. Why do he still do this?Thinking of Zhang Ronghua's character, he would not shoot the target for no reason, so he decided to wait and see.
Chu Xuping is worthy of being a good dog raised by Mr. Wei Ge. Seeing the opportunity, he jumped out immediately: "Mr. Cui Ge just said the importance of the Jinzhou granary and he couldn't move it, but you proposed to open a granary to transport grain. What is your intention?"
Old Zhou Ge watched coldly, and instead of standing up to support Zhang Ronghua, he wished that he would make a fool of himself.
Zhang Ronghua said: "I haven't finished my official speech, so don't interrupt."
Chu Xuping suppressed his anger: "I'd like to see what your opinion is! Solve the thorny problem that the two elders can't handle."
Slapped the palm of Wulong Yuling's belt, and took out the seeds of Shangjing rice, not the ears of rice.
Zhang Ronghua presented it with both hands, Wei Shang came down and returned with the things.
He spoke again: "Although I have just taken office, as a parent official, I dare not slack off for a moment. Combined with the many books I read before, many of which recorded crops, carefully calculated, and after countless experiments, the hard work paid off. The existing rice improvement doubles the original production capacity, yielding [-] catties per mu of good fields, [-] catties of inferior fields, [-] catties of dry fields, and [-] catties of barren hills and deserts."
boom!
The civil and military officials were shocked, and everyone looked over, first at Zhang Ronghua, then at Shangjingdao on the imperial case, wondering in disbelief, is he crazy?Even dare to say such crazy words, if you can't do it, aren't you afraid of being guilty of deceiving the emperor?
If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, Chu Xuping would have wanted to laugh out loud!
God-given opportunity, Zhang Ronghua took the initiative to send the knife over, if he doesn't do it now, when will he do it?As for what he said, it's a complete ass!
If the variety of rice is so easy to improve, the Ministry of Industry has already successfully developed it over the years. With so many people, why can't they compare to him alone?
Not to mention doubling the yield per mu, even if it increased by a hundred catties, it would be a great achievement!Furthermore, can rice be grown in harsh environments such as dry fields, barren mountains and deserts?If yes, he will eat shit on his head!
"This is the Ziji Hall. Your Majesty is still sitting on the dragon chair. What you say is like water being poured out. If the rice seeds you just handed in cannot double the yield per mu, you are deceiving the emperor!"
Familiar with Zhang Ronghua's personality, and thinking of what he did in the Lingyan Division before, could it be that he has really improved a new breed?
Zhang Ronghua said: "Don't bother Chu Yushi, if I dare to say this, I will naturally be responsible for every word."
Looking at Emperor Xia.
"Your Majesty, whether it is true or not, you can take rice seeds and plant them in flower pots, so that Eunuch Wei can find out through his cultivation."
Chu Xuping panicked, was it really successful?
Wei Shang ordered people to bring the things, came down from the imperial platform again, stopped in front of the officials, planted two kinds of rice, stretched out his palms, and used his true energy to give birth.
this moment.
Everyone stretched their heads to look around. Ding Yi and Chen Youcai knew the inside story and stood in the queue as firmly as Mount Tai. The others couldn't calm down and wanted to get the result as soon as possible.
Form a circle in front to block the line of sight, and the people behind cannot see it, so hurry up!
After a few minutes.
Wei Shang withdrew his hand and looked at the two rice plants. The one on the left was a new variety improved by Zhang Ronghua. The ears of rice were more than double the size of the one on the right. You can draw conclusions just by looking at the appearance, and you have to weigh them.
Picking off the ears of rice, he put them on the scale in front of all civil and military officials, seeing the result in front of him, it was indeed more than doubled in weight, his old face showed excitement, and he turned around: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Zhang Fuyin has researched a new rice seed that is twice as heavy as the old rice seed, so it is true that the production capacity has doubled."
Emperor Xia suppressed his excitement, and said in a deep voice, "Try again!"
This time it was changed to dry soil without any moisture, and I tried it again, and the result was still the same.
With Emperor Xia's city mansion, he couldn't bear it now.
The rice yield per mu doubled, and the national power of Daxia increased, which has many benefits. The simplest point is that the people are full, and the rebellion will not happen. Studying in the academy, for a long time, there will be more and more talents in Daxia.
If you join the army, you will eat enough to eat, your physique will become stronger, and after training, your combat effectiveness will be stronger, and the quality of the army will be improved in an all-round way. If a big battle breaks out, even if you can't win the opponent for a while, the energy consumption will kill the enemy!
With its help, many things can be done.
Just as he was about to speak, Chu Xuping jumped out again, and poured a basin of cold water on his face: "Even if the yield per mu is doubled, it can still adapt to various environments. Whether there are any side effects or toxins has to be inspected by the Ministry of Industry."
Chen Youcai came out and said loudly: "Officer Ding Tui took it to the Ministry of Industry for inspection yesterday. I personally tested it one by one. There is no side effect. You can eat it with confidence."
Chu Xuping lowered his head to pretend to be his grandson, but he didn't dare to dance anymore.
Emperor Xia just had a good time, and before he had a good time, he poured cold water on him, how could he let it go?Fierce aura: "Slap your mouth!"
Chu Xuping didn't dare to disobey, raised his palm, and slapped it on his face.
Snapped!
There was a sound of applause, and he used all his strength, not daring to bully the king.
Xia Huang said: "Not loud enough! Zhang Ronghua, you help him."
"The minister obeys the order!"
Zhang Ronghua smiled and walked over. Chu Xuping was terrified and wanted to back away but didn't dare. Before he could react, the stormy attack came down.
The first palm fell, the huge force of the palm knocked all the teeth in his mouth away, and the second palm fell knocked him out, do you think it's over?Net think of good things!
Zhang Ronghua grabbed the hem of his shirt, twitched his right hand, bowed left and right, no matter what he did, let's talk when he feels comfortable.
After dozens of strokes, he almost stopped before he could figure it out.
As soon as the palm was released, Chu Xuping fell to the ground. Looking at his face again, it was even scarier than a pig's head, especially the mouth. It would not be too much to say that it was a pig's large intestine.
A royal guard stepped forward and dragged him away without giving him any face, which shows how angry His Majesty is!
Emperor Xia asked, "What is the name of this rice?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "Return to Your Majesty, it is called Shangjingdao."
"Not bad!" Emperor Xia asked again.
"Did you develop it by yourself?"
The research and development of Shangjing rice is a great contribution, even if you eat all of it, and you are still a county lord, if you share some, the result will still be the same.
Zhang Ronghua is not a person who eats alone. Ding Yi called him a brother, and he worked hard behind his back to do things. He had to take care of both public and private: "In addition to Chen, there is also Ding Tuiguan. Big help."
Ding Yi was moved, brother never forgetting himself, he opened his mouth hard to say that this matter has nothing to do with him, but his words were swallowed back, if he told the truth, Zhang Ronghua is deceiving the emperor, and the officials will definitely not let this go Opportunity, I had no choice but to keep my kindness in my heart.
Xia Huang's momentum was once again, domineering and unparalleled: "Zhang Ronghua, Ding Yi Tingfeng!"
"The minister is here!" The two replied.
"You have made great contributions to Daxia and the common people in the research and development of Shangjing rice, and your contributions to the community have surpassed the ages. This is a great achievement."
Paused for a while, it seemed that he was trying to stimulate the appetite of all the officials. Seeing that the heat was about the same, Emperor Xia said.
"Finish Ding Yi as Marquis of the North City and add a sacred Heavenly Dragon Horse! Feng Zhang Rong as Marquis of the South City and add a sacred Heavenly Dragon Horse!"
Nanzun and Beici, with Nancheng County Government and Beicheng County Government as titles, although they are county marquises, they are the most honorable in Daxia!The gold content and honor are so high that ordinary princes can't compare.
But there is no fiefdom, and no food town!
Guessing that they would be sealed as marquises, they didn't expect to be sealed as Marquis of Nancheng and Marquis of Beicheng.
Elder Wei Ge was the first to jump out: "Your Majesty, absolutely not! The Marquis of Nancheng and Marquis of Beicheng are of great significance. Throughout the history of Daxia, they have never been sealed. This case cannot be opened. It is better to change to other county marquises. "
"Second minister!" Elder Zhou Ge agreed.
People from the two factions, as well as the princes and other political opponents, jumped out at the same time.
Zhang Ronghua's people, Pei Caihua and his manpower!
Unexpectedly, Elder Cui Ge actually supported it.
Seeing that more and more people were going down, Emperor Xia was determined to eat the weight this time, and shouted: "Shut up!"
Sharp eyes fell on Elder Wei Ge.
"If you develop Shangjing rice, I will make you the Marquis of Dongcheng!"
thump!
Wei Ge was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, with his head on the ground, not daring to refute.
"I'm talking here today, who can develop a new breed like Zhang Ronghua, Dongchenghou is his!"
All the officials dared not take a breath.
Emperor Xia said: "There is no precedent, I will set this example, and this matter is settled like this."
The two thanked each other: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Xu Guowen was unfavorable in his affairs and seriously dereliction of duty. He was dismissed from office and promoted Lu Junxiu to Lanzhou Governor. He will take office immediately."
Everyone knew that this was Zhang Ronghua's iron club, and this time he got the honor. Not long after sitting in the fourth rank, he stepped into the ranks of the third rank, and there was no way to stop it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lu Junxiu came out to thank you.
"Order Yin Zhou of Jinzhou to open the granary to transport grain. After you arrive in office, lower the price of grain and restore the original price to ensure the stability of Lanzhou."
"The minister obeys the order!"
"Before the appointment, Tianji Pavilion came up with a reasonable charter for planting rice in Shangjing."
Five elders took orders.
Emperor Xia stood up, Wei Shang understood what this meant: "Retire!"
Hundreds of officials left one after another.
After everyone left, Lu Junxiu waited in place. Zhang Ronghua stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "When you arrive in Lanzhou, work hard and don't let Your Majesty down!"
"Do your best and die with no regrets!"
A double entendre, said on the surface to the people around Huangwei, but in fact expressed his position, no matter where the subordinates go, as long as you say a word, they will be the first to charge.
Zhang Ronghua was pleased: "Go!"
Eunuch Xiao came in at this moment, bringing two eunuchs with him. They held a tray in each of their hands. There were unicorn robes, purple and gold, half of the two colors, inlaid with many gemstones, noble and luxurious, showing their status.
"Congratulations!"
"It's a matter of duty."
He took the unicorn robe, turned and left.
I didn't go back to Shangjing Mansion, but I had to go to the Ministry of Industry to tell them how to cultivate Shangjing rice.
It took a while.
After dealing with the affairs in the palace, he left Suzaku Gate. Two chariots were waiting here. The sacred dragon and horse had already been added. His chariot had six chariots, and Ding Yi's had five.
When the news of the title of Marquis spread, Ding Bo and Shi Bo smiled and congratulated, and they got on the Tianji chariot to drive them away.
Ding Yihou was in a hurry and couldn't wait: "Brother, hurry up and put on the unicorn robe."
Zhang Ronghua responded with a smile: "Okay."
He took it out and replaced it with a purple gold collar and a huge unicorn embroidered on his chest. His four hooves were burning with flames, and he was not angry and majestic, setting off his aura to the extreme.
Take a look.
Ding Yi gave a thumbs up and praised: "Handsome! So handsome!"
"Brother, what about me? Don't you look more handsome in the unicorn robe?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "The second most handsome man in the capital."
"Brother, you still know how to talk." Ding Yi curled his lips.
"Your Majesty is really stingy, why can't you give me another set? You can change it."
Zhang Ronghua joked: "You can ask His Majesty later, and by the way, ask for a set for me."
Ding Yi shrank his head and made a frightened expression.
Arrived at the government office.
Tie Changlin came back first, and waited in the courtyard with Liu An and others. When he saw the two of them coming, he hurriedly saluted: "I've seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua nodded: "Don't be in a hurry to leave when you're on duty, I'll treat you to guests, and we'll get together in the Platinum Academy."
"Master is wise!"
Wave your hand and let them go down.
Into the office room.
The three sat down.
Zhang Ronghua asked: "How much do you know about the wine shop?"
Tie Changlin was puzzled: "Why do you think of asking this?"
"There seems to be a lot of money on the accounts of the government office. Once it is used, it will be gone in an instant. The official took the time to research two kinds of wine, one is ordinary wine, called Shangjing wine; the other is called Shangjing Lingjiu. , to increase the income of the government, and only with money can we do things, whether it is construction or benefiting the people, we will get twice the result with half the effort."
"Your Excellency is dedicated to the public, and I admire you!" Tie Changlin said seriously, admiringly.
"In the past two days, I have had a general understanding of the government office industry. There are quite a lot of them. Aside from salt, tea, etc., there are not many who can make money. The same things are available in the market, with good quality and low prices, and we make them. The cost of things is too high. If the price is set low, you will lose money. If you set the price high, you will not be able to sell it. Due to helplessness, you have to stop temporarily and stop the loss in time. The winery is located on the street behind the government office. It occupies a large area and has complete craftsmanship. , can brew two thousand catties of wine a day."
Zhang Ronghua was surprised: "So big?"
"How about the specifics? I haven't been there yet, why don't I go and have a look now?"
"go!"
The three got up and walked outside.
At the gate of the government office.
A carriage stopped, four sacred dragon-drawn carriages, with a "Li" character engraved on each side of the carriage frame, with four guards, the curtain was lifted, and Li Daoran came out from inside, looking at Zhang Ronghua and the others who had stopped, He walked over quickly and joked, "Waiting for me on purpose?"
"I guess you're coming, so I'll wait here ahead of time."
"As expected of Qinglin..." At this point, Li Daoran stared at the Qilin robe, and said tentatively.
"You, you..."
Tie Changlin took the words appropriately: "This morning, your lord and Changqing have been conferred the titles of Marquis of Nancheng and Marquis of Beicheng."
Li Daoran reacted quickly, bowing and saluting: "I've seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua knew that his old friend was half serious and half teasing, so he punched him in the chest angrily: "Did you see someone else?"
Li Daoran smiled, curiously: "There has been no major incident recently, so why did you become a Marquis?"
Zhang Ronghua briefly explained the matter.
Li Daoran looked at the sky and rolled his eyes, cooperating with himself for such a long time down here for nothing, but he couldn't replicate it, it would be hard for someone like Quan Daxia to find another one.
"An evening treat!"
"Platinum Court."
"it is good!"
Zhang Ronghua asked: "Just came back?"
"Yes!" Li Daoran nodded.
"As soon as the affairs in Jinzhou were handed over, I rushed here non-stop. I wanted to surprise you. Who would have thought that you would surprise me."
Chatted for a while.
Li Daoran left and agreed to meet at night.
The three of them got into the car and rushed towards the wine shop, not far away by a street. When they arrived here, there was a pair of government soldiers guarding outside, and Duozheng rushed up to greet him: "I have seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua ordered: "Open it."
Align and take off the key at your waist to open the lock.
Into the winery.
One word "big", just like what Tie Changlin said, turned around and stopped in the backyard.
Zhang Ronghua lamented: "What a good wine shop is vacant like this, it's a complete waste."
Looking at Zhengzheng, he told the materials of Shangjing Liquor, said a few more, to prevent leaks, and then ordered him to get it.
Quickly align and return, and put down all the things.
Take them into the room.
It is mainly made of rice, supplemented by other materials, and there are three common medicinal materials. There are [-] pieces in total. Although there are many types, they are all common, and the price is not expensive. Take clear water and brew it with black and yellow internal energy to save precious medicinal materials. time.
Less than a quarter of an hour.
Shangjing wine came out of the oven, a whole catty, clear to the bottom, without any impurities, and the rich aroma of the wine came out, which tended to be thick, and it was filled with three cups.
Zhang Ronghua said: "Try it!"
Holding the wine glass, take a sip, strong!very strong!The wine entered the stomach, like burning with a knife, very tasty, even if you wanted to forget it, you drank the rest of the wine and put down the glass.
Pour the prepared nine catties of water into it and blend it, stir it evenly, the three of them taste it again, the "strong" has become a little weaker, but it is still a rare "good wine", much better than the low-grade wines on the market .
As expected, Tie Changlin was from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he was very allergic to silver. When he discovered the huge business opportunity contained in it, his eyes were hot, and he hurriedly asked, "How does Lord Hou set the price?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "Ten coins are a pot, and a pot is a catty."
"A pot on the market is only half a catty, and some are even less. Isn't that too much for us?"
"Making money is one aspect, and giving back to the people is another aspect. Ten cents is already a lot. If the amount is not enough, it will undoubtedly squeeze the hard-earned money of the people. A pot of wine weighs a catty. Drink it sparingly, and it will last for a while. Press Calculated in this way, after the blending, it is also more than ten times the profit."
Tie Changlin saluted solemnly: "Your Majesty loves the people like a son, I admire you!"
Zhang Ronghua took out a pen and ink from the Wulong Yuling belt, wrote down the recipes of the two wines, and handed them over: "I will leave the rest to you, keep it secret, and don't let the recipes be leaked."
"I understand!" Tie Changlin asked again.
"How is Shangjing Lingjiu priced?"
Zhang Ronghua said: "The price is based on the lowest spirit wine on the market."
"Yes!" Tie Changlin left with excitement.
Ding Yi asked, "Brother, are you going to the Zhongtian camp?"
The Zhongtian camp is about 120 miles away from the capital. In the Zhongtian Plain, the defense is deep and there is a large formation covering it. No one is allowed to approach. If one is found, it should be dealt with carefully.
Shake his head.
Zhang Ronghua said: "Not now, the matter on the side of Shangjing Mansion has not been dealt with properly, you and Meng Qing alone can't hold back, wait another two days."
Looking at the capital.
"Taking advantage of the time now, go out of the city and inspect the small towns and villages below."
After leaving the wine shop, he ordered Duozheng to go to the government office to inform Mo Qi'an, asking him to bring someone over.
Wait for them to arrive.
Zhang Ronghua got into Ding Yi's car, and a group of people left from Beicheng and headed for the territory of Shangjing Mansion. In the destroyed stone village, other villages and small towns are thriving and developing very well.
There are flat and wide country roads from the village to the town. The people have smiles on their faces and are satisfied from the bottom of their hearts. It seems that life is good.
Back to the capital.
Just about to go back to the government office, a group of people passed by on the street ahead, led by Ji Xueyan, riding a sacred Tianlong horse, wearing a bamboo hat to hide his face, behind him was a disciple of Jixiatang, carrying a nearly ten-foot-high Zhulong is already dead. Judging from the aura exuded, he should have been at the peak of the Heavenly Human Realm when he was alive. He was riddled with wounds, sword wounds everywhere, and the aura of the Five Elements Grand Sword Formation remained. He should have been besieged to death.
Zhang Ronghua guessed, did she bring someone to kill?
Going out during this time is just for this beast?
It happened that Ji Xueyan's eyes seemed to be unintentional, but she really wanted to see her lover and couldn't help looking over. His eyes seemed to penetrate the car and landed on him. After a few breaths, he retracted his gaze and rushed towards Jixia Academy. go.
The two people were going in different directions, so the car continued driving.
Zhang Ronghua was puzzled, where did she intercept and kill this candle dragon?Has the darkness acted again?Suppress the question and ask later in the evening.
Go back to the government office.
He stayed until the next duty, and took Tie Changlin and others to the Platinum Academy. Today, he was named Marquis. For such a big event, it would be a ghost if there was no celebration. Chen Youcai, Xu Xing, and Lu Zhantang had already been notified.
When everyone arrives, the banquet begins.
An hour later.
The crowd dispersed, Zhang Ronghua told them to pay attention to safety, and rushed towards the mansion.
Long time no see, miss her!
Got outside the room.
The purple cat's flattering voice came from inside, the spoken language was slurred, and it was acting like a baby while eating.
Push the door in and close the door.
Ji Xueyan smiled and said, "I'm back!"
Zhang Ronghua said: "Wait in a hurry?"
"Just arrived."
Ji Xueyan got up, walked over, blinked playfully, and saluted: "I've seen Lord Hou!"
Zhang Ronghua stretched out his hand, pinched her white and smooth chin, and said cooperatively: "Give me a smile."
Ji Xueyan pretended to be very scared and pitiful, her deep and bright eyes were red and swollen, and she looked like she was about to cry from fright, folded her hands on her chest, and retreated backwards: "Master Hou, please don't! I beg you to let the little girl go... . . . "
Zhang Ronghua couldn't bear it anymore, feeling angry, he held the face in front of him and kissed it directly.
After a long time, the two separated.
Ji Xueyan's cheeks were so charming that it made people want to take two more bites. Sitting across the table, she sighed, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it! Just like this, he is still the most honorable Marquis of Nancheng." .”
"I didn't expect His Majesty's reward to be so generous."
"This unicorn robe looks quite handsome on you."
"It's not as comfortable as the clothes you make."
Ji Xueyan cast a pair of blank eyes: "From our agreement, you have taken a big step forward, and I am not idle here. Jixiatang's combat power is beginning to show ferociousness. With the Five Elements Grand Sword Formation, it will be even more powerful. Like this time, the original target was just a python monster, but on the way back, I met Candle Dragon near the capital, and immediately attacked, and took it down without much effort."
Zhang Ronghua frowned: "Isn't it just for it?"
"It's not that you don't know that the traces of true spirits are hidden very deep, and it's very difficult to find them!"
Zhang Ronghua said seriously: "I got news from here that the Zhulong clan is a dark people."
Ji Xueyan's complexion changed, she was cold and chilling: "The news is reliable?"
"Ah."
"It's a pity! It's dead, if not, we can still interrogate one or two."
Zhang Ronghua said: "People in the dark have very tight mouths, even if they press them, they won't get any information."
"Forget it, don't mention it!"
With a slap on the purse with her jade hand, Ji Xueyan took out a dragon ball and handed it over: "It's specially reserved for you."
Zhang Ronghua didn't want it, and returned the item: "I'm useless, it's a waste to give it to me, use it yourself."
Ji Xueyan frowned: "Give up martial arts?"
"At the current position, official duties are becoming more and more important, and more energy is devoted. It is very difficult to be like before. The two must make a choice. If this is the case, it is better to go to the end in the officialdom."
Ji Xueyan held his hand, clasped his fingers tightly, and said firmly: "I will work hard to cultivate and strive to grow up as soon as possible."
Zhang Ronghua said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, everything is up to me."
"En." Ji Xueyan responded.
"I'll wait for you to take a bath!"
