Chapter 908 Fang Yun's Three Thousand Questions

On the second day of March, memorials and letters from officials in Mizhou were transmitted to the capital like snowflakes.

From officials of Ning'an County to the governor of Mizhou, all criticized Fang Yun's behavior, believing that Fang Yun was going against the historical trend and denying the development of the human race. Fang Yun was on a dangerous path and must be corrected.

Minister Jiang Hechuan sneered in public in the cabinet: "Where is obedience and rebellion? It's nothing but party disputes!"

The left prime minister proposed to hold an emergency court meeting. In the court, officials argued and made a mess.

The four prime ministers did not speak, allowing other officials to argue.

As for Fang Yun, who caused the chaos in the court, he went to the household office every day as if nothing had happened.

The household office of the county government corresponds to the household department of a country, which is responsible for the fields, household registration, taxes, trade, animal husbandry, markets and other related matters of a county.

In a country, the Ministry of Personnel is the head of the six ministries. In a county, the Personnel Office is also the place with the most real power. However, in terms of the most lucrative, the Household Office is the first of the ten offices.

And the Household Office is precisely managed by the Chief Clerk, and all of them are Shen Ming's people, so no one can get in.

Even if Fang Yun has placed two staff members in it as temporary clerks, it is difficult to control the Household Office.

Although Fang Yun has been focusing on fortifications and prisons these days, his private soldiers have already infiltrated every corner of Ning'an County, and the ten offices of the county government are the top priority.

At present, Fang Yun has completely controlled the Lifang and the Xingfang, and has completely controlled the receiving and sending room for conveying documents by taking advantage of the matter of praying to heaven and offering articles.

As for the workshop, the general secretary of the workshop has delegated power. The chief clerk Shen Ming once went to ask for accountability. The other party said that as long as the people from the Gongdian left, he would immediately oppose Fang Yun.

The influence of the Holy Court on the human race is too great. Shen Ming thought about it for a long time and had no way, so he defaulted to the workshop being controlled by Fang Yun.

There are ten offices in the county government, and Fang Yun has taken charge of four of them.

As for the remaining six offices, Fang Yun can only infiltrate slowly. This is the helplessness of the county magistrate. Since he is among the bureaucrats, he must do things within the rules. Once he makes too extreme actions against officials, it will inevitably cause a backlash.

In fact, if Fang Yun did not have the ability to report to the Lidian and Xingdian, and did not have the endorsement of the Holy Court, he would have been denounced by all officials long ago.

Fang Yun went to the Household Department with two goals, one open and one hidden. The open goal was to let the Household Department clerk take him to the fields of Ning'an County to understand farming.

Because the Xu Xing family sent two farmers to help, Fang Yun's inspection of farming went very smoothly, but he sacrificed the time to go to the workshop. He now draws a set of machine drawings every three days and lets the people in the Work Hall study and manufacture them themselves.

The hidden goal is to thoroughly understand the Household Department and prepare for taking over the Household Department.

On the third day of March, three sets of plague series documents, "Law on Plague Prevention and Control", "Plague Classification" and "Encyclopedia of Plague Prevention", were published at the same time. Fang Yun submitted them directly to the Medical Hall, and at the same time handed over a copy of "Law on Plague Prevention and Control" to the Criminal Hall and the Ministry of Justice.

The new plague classification triggered disputes in the Medical Hall, because Fang Yun completely used the pestilence of the exogenous cause of disease in the "Five Causes Theory" of the ancient Chinese country as an explanation, and attributed the causes of all infectious diseases to pestilence, which was unimaginable before febrile diseases became popular.

Faced with overwhelming doubts and oppositions, Fang Yun remained unmoved. He had no time to argue. He not only had to revise the first half of "On Plague", but also finish the second half, and eliminate some omissions of the original author Wu Youke, and then take out the extremely important triple-burner dialectics to lay the foundation for the establishment of the febrile disease school in Shengyuan Continent!

On the seventh day of March, Fang Yun held a morning meeting with his staff. The staff strongly suggested that he take back the power of the household department from Shen Zhubu, but no matter how those staff persuaded him, Fang Yun never agreed, and even discouraged some people.

On March 10, the Criminal Palace issued a document, and the "Plague Prevention and Control Law" had been approved by the great scholars of the Criminal Palace. As long as it was approved by the Medical Palace, it would not only be promulgated in Ning'an County, but also promoted throughout the Shengyuan Continent as soon as possible.

Fang Yun's previous legal reforms have not been fully promoted so far, and have only been tried in one state. It can be seen that the Criminal Palace attaches great importance to the "Plague Prevention and Control Law".

The Medical Palace still has doubts about Fang Yun's plague classification and treatment methods. The "Plague Prevention and Control Law" has not been approved by the Medical Palace. Fang Yun is not in a hurry. After the full text of "Plague Theory" is published, it will be passed in less than a month.

In the morning of these days, Fang Yun went to the fields every day, not only to learn how to grow wheat or grains, but also to learn how to grow vegetables and animal husbandry.

In the process of field study, Fang Yun not only had the guidance of farmers, but also the help of farmers. At the same time, he also studied the classics of farmers in Shengyuan Continent and the agricultural and animal husbandry works of the ancient Chinese country in the world of strange books.

In the first five days, Fang Yun did not say a word and just studied, but starting from March 7, Fang Yun kept asking a lot of questions and suggestions to the two farmers.

At the beginning, the two farmers could barely answer, but later, they had to send books to the old scholars or old Hanlin of the Xu family, but this was not the end. In the end, even the university scholars in the Shengyuan Agricultural Hall got involved.

Whatever there is in the construction, it can be made directly, but farming is different. It takes a long period of time to be verified, so Fang Yun has long decided that in terms of farming, he has to do three things. The first is to improve agricultural tools, the second is to lay the foundation of hybrid theory and technology, and the last is to give the direction of farmers' development in the form of suggestions or questions!

"I think that just as humans and monsters have blood inheritance, plants must also have blood inheritance. To give the simplest example, if you plant melons you will get melons, if you plant beans you will get beans. Why can't you get beans if you plant melons? It's because the melon contains the blood inheritance of the melon."

"We don't have rice in Ning'an County, but we do in Jiangzhou and Ji County, and farmers have long had hybridization technology. I observed according to the records in the book that rice has tall and short stalks. When tall stalks are hybridized with tall stalks, they must be tall stalks, and when tall stalks are hybridized with short stalks, sometimes all of them are tall stalks, and sometimes there are tall stalks and short stalks, and when short stalks are hybridized with short stalks, they must be short stalks! I wonder if it is the power of rice blood that is affecting it? Can we find a pattern?"

"Rice that is too short has low yields, and tall stalks will fall to the ground once encountering strong winds, and have poor resistance to lodging. If we understand the power of rice blood, can we hybridize a Plant half-high poles? "

"Have you ever noticed that some animals and plants are fine, but their children or offspring suddenly show strange changes? Become different from the normal state? I call this a mutation. Can we use this mutated plant to hybridize and get a better next generation? Ordinary mutations are uncontrollable. What if they are placed in the former residence of the semi-saints and washed by the holy power? What if they are placed in the demon world? What will happen if they are placed in the literary world?"

Fang Yun is like a whimsical madman. He talks about various knowledge of genetics and breeding in later generations through conjectures one by one, but he can find solid evidence for all of these.

Every night, the great scholar of the Agricultural Palace will get a document that records all of Fang Yun's views on farming.
