Chapter 48-The World of Empress

In the Yun Dynasty, only the royal family had this ability to gather the skilled craftsmen from all over the world.

Xun Feiming ran through this thought in his mind, and then turned back to the open space in front of him the next moment.

It is rare for people who are accustomed to sit upright, and in the eyes of others, they are also reliable young talents.

His current job is to select the craftsmen he wants for the empress. It is fortunate that he was entrusted with such a job after the palace examination, and it was more comfortable than sitting in the imperial court.

But the problem is that the empress did not give a specific standard, and the vague requirements made Xun Fei scratch his head sorrowfully.

Which technique and which items are considered novel and practical, is it worth engraving a picture on a walnut?

Is the tribute gauze as thin as a cicada's wings count?

The female emperor lives deep in the palace. If she is allowed to see those street performers, would it be a novelty to breathe fire and swallow a sword and need to pass?

Xun Feiming wrinkled his handsome face, but it was this errand that made him discover that there are so many weird things in the world.

For example, the craftsman in the open space put down a small wood-carved pony. The workmanship is very fine, the exterior is polished and smooth, and the pony is carved vividly. But this kind of carver seems a little inadequate in the face of the previous nuclear carving.

Xun Fei was short of interest, and craftsmen with a certain amount of experience could do this kind of work. However, this man was very confident in his work, and he did not know how to do it. The wooden horse actually moved around in the yard, although the pace was slow. , But still move forward steadily.

Xun Feiming stood up all of a sudden, couldn't restrain his excitement, and walked down to look at the wooden horse in the yard. At this time, in the hands of the workers, the little pony that stopped moving returned to a quiet appearance.

Xun Feiming observed carefully for a long time and didn't know how the other party did it. He pressed the mechanism under the guidance of the craftsman, and Ma Ju walked again.

There are no wonders in the world, Xun Feiming sighed, drew a circle on the opponent's name and let him enter the Treasures Museum.

There are such peculiarities, and there are inferior ones. The participants with mixed good and bad made Xun Feiming laugh or cry, but he is still satisfied. At least he is much happier than his friends in the field. You can drink tea under the shade of the eaves. Like a friend, he also needs to farm.

I don't know what my friends will be like when they are exposed to this poisonous sun every day. Don't be tanned by the appearance of the white-faced scholar.

Xun Feiming had gloating in his eyes.

And Ye Yuqi, who was worried about him, at this moment, a handsome face was flushed with heat, sweat dripped down, even wearing a straw hat, it could not stop the sun's invasion, but although a little embarrassed, his eyes It is full of light.

The tenant farmers in Biezhuang have a very good impression of this official. The other party is approachable and has no pretensions and is even willing to experience it in person. Although the other party's proposed methods sound novel, some can even be whimsical, but after trying them one by one, there are really a few. The way it works.

Experienced farmers can see the harvest from the growth of the grain, and improving the method according to the method proposed by Master Ye can actually increase the harvest.

Ye Yuqi didn't want to take credit. Many of his ideas originated from the manuals given by the Empress. Although I don't know where they got them, after verification, they found that many of them are indeed useful.

In addition to these, his other task is to find other food, which is also derived from the description in the manual: broad leaves, lumps, hidden in the soil, the roots are edible, if it were not for a picture, he would not know What the **** is this.

Ye Yuqi didn't have the confidence to find such a strange thing either. He asked the farmers who worked in the field, and the other party had never seen it. He also asked other people to help them find it.

It's a pity that there was nothing, but Xun Feiming was only able to recognize what it was when he found a farm tool and came to look for him.

It's also a coincidence that when a farmer brought his own farm tools to find him that day, the gatekeeper didn't want him to enter, but the empress gave an unrejected order, and they had to let the farmer bring him in. Walked in with unremarkable farm tools.

Xun Feiming didn't pay much attention at first, but when the person explained the beauty of this farm tool, if he used the new farm tool, he could save no effort and the speed of plowing the land would also increase.

He suddenly thought of his friends in Biezhuang. It happened that the empress was also in this Bieyuan to review their recent results. Xun Feiming, who was shyly asking for leave, aroused the curiosity of the empress. The other party thought about it. Go together.

In Biezhuang, Ye Yuqi was bending over to check the growth of the crops. Suddenly he was slapped on the back and almost planted on the ridge. He got up with a bit of irritation, and saw his friend's face with a bright smile. s face.

Now there is only surprise left: "Zhongqing, why are you here."

"I found a good thing, it's useful to you, don't just look at me..." Xun Feiming hadn't finished speaking, the other party had already crossed him and saw Ning Su behind him, and he quickly saluted: "See Your Majesty."

"Free gift."

Following Ye Yuqi's movements, the ground fell to his knees. Ning Su was still not used to it, and quickly cried out. She asked a few more about the current situation, and then nodded in satisfaction.

Speaking of progress, Ye Yuqi naturally also explained the difficulty of finding potatoes. He looked ashamed: "Your Majesty and the food written in my books, there is no news yet. I plan to wait for this. After the crops are harvested, they will search further afield."

Ning Su Wenyan comforted a few words and told him not to worry.

Xun Feiming didn't know what it was, but the farmer who came with them at this moment made a surprised voice, and succeeded in drawing the attention of the three of them to him.

This honest farmer had experienced this kind of battle, and immediately blushed, and he clumsily convicted him.

It was Xun Feiming who persuaded him to know why the other party was out of state.

Just listen to the commoner lowered his head and said tremblingly: "In response to your majesty, this crop, I have seen it with us, and heard the merchant say that it is a rare thing he bought from a remote seaside town."

It turned out that he had seen this crop, called "potato", which came from the Gentiles. Now it is planted in coastal areas. It's just because other people don't know how to cook it, but the staff in their town bought an early adopter.

[Host, it's really nowhere to find a place to break through the iron shoes, it's all effortless! ]020 raised her voice excitedly, because the heroine did not find potatoes in the plot, the system has always been worried that this world is different from other worlds, without this kind of food, fortunately the hard work pays off, and finally found it.

Ning Su also put on a little smile. Ye Yuqi wanted to go to the place mentioned by the farmer himself, but Ning Su stopped him and ordered others to do it.

020 feels that to be an emperor in ancient times, there is only this advantage. There is no need to do things personally, and you can let others do it with your mouth, and the other party is also grateful.

However, modern society is good, and the transportation is convenient. You can buy everything you need online or order takeaway. It won't take a week to arrive at a place far away. It may take a few months to get news.

Now that farming methods and new types of food have been found to increase yields, the next step is the most important step: clearing the land and unifying taxes.

This was the most difficult step, and it was also what Xiandi had been doing.

The princes and nobles have a lot of hidden fields, so reforms that touch their interests are naturally not supported. Even the firm royalists in the dynasty who do not have hidden fields in their homes are also a minority. They want to measure the land and return it to the people. It is moving their interests.

When the first emperor was reigning, they passively resisted such a policy. As soon as the new emperor took the throne, not to mention the continuation of the first emperor's national policy, but also intensified, secretly dissatisfaction continued to breed.

However, there are still supporters in the DPRK, including the prime minister and Tai Fu, Qingliu scholars, and those newly recruited officials and female officials who support this decree.

The remediation of the female emperor started from the royal family. Her other villages and the manor houses of the emperor's relatives were the first places to be reformed.

For this reason, there are also princes of the uncle’s generation who want to intercede with the empress. He who intends to overwhelm others by generations has not even seen the empress. She has only one attitude, not to meet anyone, not to listen to anyone’s advice, and to be extremely tough. The means to carry out reforms arbitrarily.

With ups and downs, the empress’s attitude was tough, and the changes quickly spread from the capital. The number of hidden fields cleared out was staggering. If you think about the reduction in taxes and silver from the treasury behind, the front harem all took a breath away, for fear of being seen by the empress in a bad mood. .

With vigorous rectification and reduction of taxes, there was finally good news at this time. The people sent out found potatoes and were taking them to the capital.

Ye Yuqi conducted an experiment and found that potatoes can be full and easy to plant. He couldn't help but make him more convinced of the empress. After all, he had the manual given by the other party to find a way so quickly.

After submitting the results, officials who were not optimistic about him also showed good views on his improvement. With this contribution, Ye Yuqi became a third-rank official, and his promotion speed was jealous.

There were also some rumors in private. After being impeached several times by the supervisors who were loyal to the female emperor and had the same exam with Ye Yuqi, they gradually receded.

New types of agricultural tools, potatoes, and other new crops and farming methods have been promoted with the strong support of those in power.

Ning Su also found that his time was not enough. For three years, he only solved the agricultural problem, and the promotion in remote areas has not even been completed.

As for the Treasure Museum, although it also produced some useful things, it was far from what Ning Su wanted.

She also tried to do it by herself, but it was a field she hadn't understood before, and there were only vague concepts in her brain and no specific production method.

Moreover, the current situation is a lack of theory, but even if we talk to them about physics and chemistry, starting from the most basic knowledge, it is difficult to understand.

Ning Su was not discouraged. He had to walk one step at a time. After all, the past three years had made a lot of results, and the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated.

In the current Yun Dynasty, at least the people have surplus food in their homes, and their control over the country has become stronger.

Although Ning Su was groping for experiments herself, her gaze was also placed on Shu Shulan, a girl who passed through, thinking of the cement, glass, soap, etc. that the other party could take out without thinking in the plot, and she was a little looking forward to the next life.

Rather than letting such a helper directly be used by Yan Xiuran, it is better to squeeze the value of the other party first. If at the end, Shu Shulan still chooses to be with Yan Xiuran and choose to write a female training, that is another matter. Up.

Ning Su thought coldly. Putting down the note in his hand, it was a message from the dark guard. It said: The daughter of the Shangshu family of Hubu was pushed into the pond, and the fever persisted.

At Shang Shufu, a pale and weak young girl lying on the bed opened her eyes, her face was full of wary expressions: "Where is this, me?"
