Chapter 6 Xia Ji, You Are So Smart
"System, how long does it take for sweet potatoes to mature?"

"About four or five months."

"Four or five months, it's not too long." But it's not too short either.

After all, Xia Hanyu was a little anxious. If she followed the rules of her previous life, the barbarians would attack the border city of Daxia in a maximum of three months. But now that Wang Hongde has returned to his post, I don't know if the barbarians will stop temporarily.

Today's Great Xia is riddled with holes, Xia Hanyu really wants to distribute these good breeds across the country as soon as possible. By then, with sufficient reserves, who will be afraid of those barbarians!

Xia Hanyu thought about a building, and an ugly sweet potato appeared in her hand.

"Is this also eaten like potatoes?"

System: "Sweet potatoes can be used as a staple food. They can be steamed, boiled, fried and roasted. Generally, some people will eat sweet potatoes as a dish."

"Now release the second-level task: raise 50 silver for the border soldiers, and the time limit is [-] days."

"Thirty days?"

This task was not easy, because Xia Hanyu knew very well that the national treasury had almost been withdrawn from the treasury in recent years, and now it was difficult to withdraw even 50 taels of silver.

It's not to say that there are none at all, but how can the whole country need to use Kuyin only in this one place.

"Fu Ling, go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

Xia Hanyu decided to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to find out first, to see how much her father could give, and then she was trying to find ways to raise others.

Before reaching the entrance of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he saw a man in a python robe and jade belt from a distance.

He met her sideways eyes, turned around and walked towards her, bowing slightly.

"See Your Royal Highness the Princess."

"Excuse me." Xia Hanyu looked at him, "Why did Lord Xia enter the palace?"

Xia Ji said respectfully: "It's just that there are still some things about General Wang's case that need to be reported to His Majesty."

Xia Hanyu nodded, but didn't ask any more questions.

"I happen to have something to do and I want to find my father, let's go together."

Xia Ji was flattered, but his face didn't show it, he cupped his hands, "Yes."

The two walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation together, with the palace people following far behind.

"Xia Ji, I have a question and would like to hear your opinion."

"I dare not, Your Highness, please ask."

Thinking of the national treasury, Xia Hanyu showed helplessness, "I want to raise military pay for General Wang, how else can I raise it besides the national treasury?"

Xia Ji never thought that Xia Hanyu would ask such a question, his eyes narrowed slightly, "If I am a minister, I will start with the businessman first."

"merchant?"

Xia Ji reminded: "Scholars, farmers, businessmen." The business ranks last.

Xia Hanyu's eyes lit up, and she suddenly grabbed Xia Ji's wrist, "I understand!"

"The imperial court has always valued scholars over merchants, and the status of merchants has been low. Even in our dynasty, those who have businessmen among their relatives within three generations are still not allowed to participate in scientific examinations, and are not allowed to become officials. Naturally, they couldn’t wait to hand over the money.”

Why didn't she think of it!

"Xia Ji, you are really smart."

After saying that, Xia Hanyu lifted her skirt and ran towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Xia Ji looked at his wrist, which still had a residual warmth that belonged to her, and his sharp eyebrows moved slightly.

Xia Hanyu ran to the front of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, straightened her skirt, and walked in.

"I have seen my father."

The emperor looked up at her like a butterfly, and couldn't help but smile.

"Why did Yu'er come to see me at this time?"

Xia Hanyu went to his desk and asked him, "I want to ask my father, now that General Wang has been reinstated, will he be returning to the border soon?"

The emperor nodded, "That's true."

"Did the father prepare the military salary for General Wang to take it there? Although General Wang was accused of embezzling the Mexican military salary, it is a fact that the embezzlement of the Mexican military salary exists. Has the father never thought about how to compensate the border soldiers? ?"
