Daqin: I was heard by Zulong at the beginning

Chapter 211 Ying Zheng nodded meaningfully
When the ministers saw that His Majesty's expression was wrong, they looked back and forth.

Hope to get some information from other people's eyes.

It's a pity that no one knows exactly what offended His Majesty.

Seeing that His Majesty has remained silent, a bold courtier asked:

"Your Majesty, is there anything that upsets you?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyes and glanced at his subordinates, then inadvertently glanced at Su Chen and Fu Su.

His eyes suddenly lit up: Maybe Su Chen from later generations knows what to do!

In order to prevent unnecessary panic, he said cautiously:
"Yesterday the fortune teller came to me and said that next winter there will be a snowstorm."

He didn't say which places, but he believed that there were only so many courtiers, and the most he could think of was two cities.

Sure enough, they quickly discussed below.

"Snow disaster, if it's one city, it's okay, but if it's two cities, we can only give up one city."

"What's so bad? Maybe there's only one city."

"But His Majesty's face is so ugly, it must be the two cities."

"It's probably in the Yanshan area again."

"However, the land of Yan is bitterly cold, even if there is a snowstorm, it should be able to handle it."

Some courtiers couldn't help but feel a little optimistic when they thought about this.

Ying Zheng listened secretly, very good, he didn't say a word, and his subordinates finished analyzing the affected locations and several cities.

That's fine, even if the rumor spreads to Yandi, the people of Yandi will just listen to it and let it go.

Anyway, they already have snow in winter, so if there is a snow disaster, it will only snow a little more.

For them, it doesn't matter much.

The next day's snow is also falling, and the next two days' snow is also falling.

There is no difference at all.

Now that they had already decided on the location, Ying Zheng acquiesced without hesitation.

He leaned on the chair and saw that the courtiers had almost made up their minds before continuing:
"Since the ministers have already guessed about the same, I won't say much."

"It's just that snow disasters are no better than flood disasters. Who has a way to relieve disasters?"

Everyone was a little stunned, this Yandi, why do you want to save the snow disaster?

The locals in Yandi said they don't need it, okay?

Does Your Majesty really need disaster relief?

Could this be a test for us courtiers?
The more people thought about it, the more they felt that it was possible. They had nothing to say before, and they started thinking about it.

Maybe I can come up with an excellent solution in front of His Majesty!
A minister thought for a while, and immediately said:
"Your Majesty, if you have an idea, you can transfer the Yan people from the two places and return after the snow disaster."

Ying Zheng didn't speak.There are snow disasters all over the country, where should we move?

When the other ministers saw that His Majesty did not speak, they knew that this idea would not work, and they immediately stood up and said:
"I think this is not an option. People can be transferred. What about houses? What about crops?"

Ying Zheng nodded meaningfully, and the other ministers saw this and continued to use their brains.

"Your Majesty, why don't you bring food and clothing to the people of Yandi to help them survive the winter like you did when you rescued a flood."

Ying Zheng still didn't say anything. Who should bring the snow disasters all over the country?

Seeing that Ying Zheng still didn't speak, the ministers couldn't help but fell silent.

They are just lip servicers in court, without field experience, how can they come up with ideas?
Isn't this embarrassing?

The ministers expressed dissatisfaction, and it was just two cities?
Do I need to ask so seriously?

Could it be that they forgot that Yingzheng still attached great importance to the floods that only affected [-] or [-] villages?

What's more, they encountered the two cities they mentioned.

Ying Zheng knew that relying on these people was hopeless, but fortunately, he had always put his hope on Su Chen.

But he knew about Su Chen's stink.

If you can't speak in the hall, try not to speak.

So, he looked at Fusu who was lost in thought.

"Fusu, tell me, what do you think?"

Fusu didn't expect to be named.

Didn't he even show that he had an idea?

How did his father think of calling him?

After looking down on his IQ last time and asking him to reread the enlightenment book,

What does father look down on him again?

Fusu was very depressed, but facing his father's questioning, he could only stand up and bow and say:
"My son didn't think much about it. He just wanted to inform them in advance, reduce or exempt grain taxes, and let them store grain and strengthen their houses a year in advance."

Ying Zheng nodded, his son's face cannot be refuted.

Another one, what Fusu said is also good. Although these aspects are simple, they are very effective and easy to implement.

It can be done anywhere in the country.

But Ying Zheng didn't get Su Chen's answer, so he was not reconciled.

"Do you have any other ideas, or do you think anyone has?"

What Ying Zheng said in the last sentence was very obvious. He hoped that his son would think of Su Chen immediately.

In this way, Su Chen had no choice but to stand up and put forward any solution he could think of.

But now, Ying Zheng turned his head to take a look.

Sure enough, probably because I haven't gotten angry today?
Su Chen has been sleeping until now and has not woken up.

Fusu was very puzzled when he heard his father's words. He knew that his father wanted him to ask his husband to talk.

But not only did Ying Zheng know that Su Chen was unwilling to speak in the court, he himself knew it very well!
So why did the father say this sentence?

Or did the father actually want him to recommend someone else?

Fusu couldn't help but look over, as if no one was willing to say anything.

Fusu looked back regretfully, what he didn't see was that Ying Zheng also looked back regretfully.

He finally understood that it was impossible for Fusu to wake up Su Chen to speak.

Ying Zheng was convinced. He kept saying that Fusu turned his elbow outward, which was absolutely true.

Even a poor gentleman is reluctant to use it.

What use do I want this son for?

Fusu still owed Yingzheng an answer, so he thought for a long time, and finally said:

"For more than a year, the local people can also grow more potatoes."

"Master Su said that the potato production is large, which can ensure that the affected areas will not suffer losses in terms of food."

He couldn't find the right person to speak, but the husband's idea was often quite feasible.

So he can only use this subtle way to pull Mr. in.

I hope my father will seize the opportunity and my husband will not notice.

Ying Zheng initially focused on the "potatoes" mentioned by Fu Su.

He talked to a fortune teller and the potato grew well in the affected area.

He himself also received reports from the new local city guard that many of them planted a large amount of potatoes under Su Chen's guidance.

So far, many fields have been harvested, and most of the villagers have been relieved of hunger by relying on potatoes.

This news surprised Ying Zheng at the time.

You must know that in Daqin, or even when Dazhou was the most prosperous, there was no guarantee that the villagers would be free from hunger.

Even if we guard the fertile land, when the weather is good, the grain output is very limited.

So with Fusu's suggestion, he subconsciously felt that this method was very feasible!
In the snowstorm next winter, if potatoes are planted across the country, the winter will be able to survive no matter what!
