Chapter 292 Chapter 292
Xu Ji sneered and said, "How good is his appetite when he thinks he's himself? I'm really not afraid of breaking my teeth!"

Song Qingzhai also looked cold, "Of course he is not afraid, although the new county magistrate still has a conscience, he is not as strong as Chen Jian and others.

"Knowing that you are back, Chen Jian and others have come here to ask you for advice."

"What idea can I have?" Xu Ji rolled his eyes, "Brother, don't play charades with me, it stands to reason that I went to the north, and what Zhou Qi wants to get from my fief in name is not like a bag?
"The reason why he only dared to send people to buy food by force, but didn't dare to take it back, must be something you did?"

Song Qingzhai couldn't hold back his smile and said, "You can't hide this from you! I did make an arrangement, but it can only be delayed for a while.

"Fortunately, Zhou Qi's happy days are only a few days away."

Xu Ji thought for a while, "Then, it's up to you to appease Chen Jian and others, your words carry more weight than mine."

Song Qingzhai was overjoyed.

On the second day, Cheng Pei came to visit as scheduled.

He also brought two boys, some farm tools, and a few small bags of grain.

The purpose of this trip is to learn from Xu Ji how to use new farm tools, and how to grow and eat new varieties of grain.

Xu Ji explained everything in detail, and even gave him the blueprints for making new farm tools.

Cheng Pei was deeply surprised.

Xu Ji smiled and said: "Because the prince told me yesterday that Mr. Cheng has always worried about the country and the people, I think you came to ask me about farming, and what you think is probably how to promote it.

"If the imperial court doesn't act, you want to use your reputation to promote it, right?
"You are not for the imperial court or some people who are high above you, but for the general public who are suffering, aren't you?"

Cheng Pei nodded slowly, his eyes were slightly red.In fact, he and Song Qingzhai are on the same road, but due to the situation, he can't do anything.

Song Qingzhai added: "As Mr. Cheng's uncle, things will go much smoother. After all, no matter your Majesty makes things difficult for anyone, he will not make things difficult for you."

Cheng Pei smiled wryly: "I was determined not to be an official in the court, but I asked His Majesty for a favor. I thought he would keep his promise, but..."

He was extremely disappointed, "On the second day after I came back, I went to the palace and asked him to issue a decree to promote new grains to relieve the people's disasters.

"But he... he said that I refused to be an official back then, and I am still a commoner now. If I want to write a book and say that he absolutely supports it, if I want to interfere in the government, he will definitely not allow it."

He couldn't believe that the person that his excellent sister was looking for was such a person who didn't care about the world and only knew how to play tricks!
Song Qingzhai had some sympathy for him, "Young Master Cheng, it's not too late to see his true colors. You don't have to be angry with books.

"Of course, it's good that you want to do your part.

"Xu Xu will impart all that he knows and can, and if he can use your ability to spread it, it will be a supreme merit.

"It's just that the reality is often far from the ideal. Knowing that it is a good thing that benefits the country and the people, it is difficult to implement it under the pressure of those in power."

Cheng Pei closed his eyes, "I know. My strength alone is comparable to that of an ant, but if I don't do anything, he doesn't do anything, and everyone doesn't do anything, the world is in danger.

"If everyone is like me... Who said that a gnat can shake a tree beyond its control? One day we will be able to make people dare not underestimate them!"

Xu Ji and Song Qingzhai exchanged glances, and they both praised Cheng Pei.

It's just that the matter of another day is too important to share with him yet, but just to comfort him with kind words, and Xu Ji also promised to provide him with enough grain seeds.
