Are you stupid?

Chapter 112 Opening the Sea Road [VIP]

"Otherwise, find some good crop growers, and study whether the production of grain seeds can be fixed?"

As soon as someone suggested it, another group of people immediately held up the golden signboard that Mu Huaiyuan returned to Beijing for two years to be sure of everything, and taunted the other party, "How do you think you compare with Mu Shilang? The solution that fools like you can think of, Could it be that Mu Shilang can't figure it out? Or, do you think Mu Shilang can't find a good person to grow grain? The new grain was discovered and improved by Mu Shilang. Even after spending seven years, he couldn't fix the output. You That's it?"

The person who opened the mouth wanted to refute, but the facts speak louder than words. What Mu Huaiyuan has done since he entered the court, he may not finish in his lifetime. Comparing himself with Mu Huaiyuan is really humiliating himself, so he has no choice but to He gritted his teeth and shut up, and never mentioned anything about recruiting people to study fixed production.

The officials who are eyeing the new crops of grain have made up their minds, and when they go back, they will go to the warehouse at home to find some elegant and valuable items as gifts and send them to Mu Huaiyuan's house, so that they can ask him for grain when the time comes , Mu Huaiyuan can give them a lot of convenience.

In contrast to the restless itineraries of the officials because of the benefits that new grains can bring, Mu Huaiyuan not only managed the household department to be honest in two years, but also completely fixed the output of new grains.

He and Shenlong sat together to read, taste tea, and play chess. The government affairs of the court had become the most common gossip when they were alone.

Shenlong didn't make a fuss when he heard that the production had stabilized, "Then next year, I'll draw a few counties near the capital to try new crops."

"Don't you choose a few more locations across the country to try planting?"

"Of course not. I'm not the kind of person who is overjoyed." Shenlong blinked reservedly, and smiles overflowed from his eyes.

Mu Huaiyuan didn't even take his eyes off the chessboard, and directly punctured Shenlong's words to fool outsiders, "If you haven't told me the truth, I think you want to be cleaned up again at night."

"Don't, don't, there will be a court meeting tomorrow." Shenlong immediately begged for mercy, "The dragon chair is very hard, and the court meeting will take a long time. I don't want to sit on it with my head up and chest out when my butt hurts, and make myself suffer. .”

Mu Huaiyuan looked up at Shenlong, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Mu Huaiyuan pointed to the chessboard, "It's your turn."

"You haven't heard from Fan Su for several years, right? He received my order and quietly went to the south." Shenlong put away his playfulness, and told Mu Huaiyuan the plan that had been laid several years ago.

Mu Huaiyuan and Shenlong had a good understanding. He knew ten things from hearing one thing, and instantly guessed all Shenlong's plans. Starting from the general situation of the world, "In the period of the first emperor, the north was mainly unstable, and the foreign tribes were about to move; while the south was inevitably invaded by some water bandits. , but overall it is still more stable and prosperous, so you don’t have to spend so much thought. But it’s different now, the Northland is already stable, besides..."

After Shenlong's drop, Mu Huaiyuan followed up with almost no thought, pressing on the key point, his eyes had become sharp and full of power.

"After a few years, new grains will be popularized, and the price of grain will definitely become lower and lower. The people will have no worries about food and clothing, but they still have no money to live on. The people have no money, and the court will naturally not become rich— — Your Majesty needs to find a way to make money. Have you seen China Shipping?"

"……Correct."

Shenlong's idea of ​​revitalizing the navy is actually immature, but if he talks more with Mu Huaiyuan, he doesn't have to worry about rumors about his incomplete plan, and he can continue to improve it in the communication with Mu Huaiyuan Plan, check for deficiencies and make up for omissions, and prevent possible problems.

"Fan Su is in Guangzhou." Shenlong confessed to Mu Huaiyuan, "It's been so many years, because the situation in the north has been changing constantly, plus Wei Qian and Zhou Rong are far more eye-catching than Fan Su, the courtiers will focus on For them, Fan Su was ignored. The Fan family is good at fighting wars, but they can't do it when it comes to playing tricks. It just so happens that the water bandits in the south have been caught incessantly over the years, making the officials and the people very angry and headache. Fan Su In the past, not only did they not receive any obstruction, but they all felt that they were throwing a hot potato."

"But Fan Su's work is still not going well." Shenlong's start was good, but Mu Huaiyuan still could tell from his furrowed brow that Shenlong was not rejoicing for a good start.

Shenlong really lowered his face, "Yes. It's not just because Fan Su was too unprepared for people. There have been constant wars in the north, so the army in the north has been pruned; but the south is too comfortable. He has not exercised for a long time, and even pretended to be someone else to join the army. In addition, Fan Su was not good at planning, and did not set aside enough military rations. They are all hungry."

The disobedient soldiers should be arrested first, and then they will be beaten and honest.

But to be honest, not only can they be obedient to train in the military camp, but it also means that they dare not go out casually. If they lack food, they will almost starve to death in the military camp.

... This is really something Fan Su can do.

Mu Huaiyuan rolled up the corners of his lips amusedly, and tried to comfort Shenlong, "At least it proves that Fan Su is really good at organizing the army."

"That's right. Fortunately, some businessmen who were spared when I was cleaning up the emperor's uncle still thought of my kindness. Did Fan Su really ask him to move the grain out of the grain depot first when he 'borrowed grain' everywhere? Otherwise, something big will happen.”

Mu Huaiyuan was concerned about Yu, Xi, Tuan, Team, Du and Jia.His opinion is more relaxed than that of Shenlong, "It was so difficult, and Fan Su didn't use his status as His Majesty's companion to embarrass the officials and force them to open the granary. Fan Su is really good."

"That's true."

Shenlong was comforted by Mu Huaiyuan, and his face looked much better, but it was still somewhat weird.

"After this incident, Fan Su didn't know what to do. He came up with the idea of ​​generals leading soldiers to garrison fields in the early years. It has been practiced in the army for the past few years. Perhaps it is Fan Su's ability to save food, and I will not be able to lead soldiers because of this. , The military rations that should be approved have been approved to Fan Su as usual. Fortunately, Gu Jian is in the household department, otherwise it would not have been so smooth. Perhaps because of eating, drinking, and training enough, Fan Su has brought soldiers to wipe out the There are many water bandits. Some of the people on the top of the mountain are of good character. I also accepted Fan Su's suggestion and asked him to break up and assign them to various military camps. However, as the number of bandit villages destroyed increased, Fan Su arrested It is no longer our people."

"Dare to come to my Great Zhou to rob, and I will make them dare not step into my Great Zhou's sea area in this life."

Shenlong is not as short-sighted as some courtiers, thinking that he has already occupied the largest territory, and the sea can be left alone.He is very clear that if he can't eliminate the hidden danger of pirates during his reign, then only God will know if the successor has the ability and timing to solve it when he grows up.

"Your Majesty intends to ship by sea, so a powerful fleet is needed to take care of it." Mu Huaiyuan nodded, and brought out the most important thing.
