A bold son-in-law doting on his concubine and destroying his wife?The ashes are scattered!

Looking at Emperor Jianliang's hesitant face, King Qin glanced at Leng Lan not far away and felt proud.

He just said, women should go home and do embroidery. Why come here to argue with men when they have nothing to do?

Isn't it true that he and his men only used a few words to put their father's mind to rest?
"Father."

Leng Lan took a step forward: "What King Qin said makes sense."

"The common people have never grown sweet potatoes. It is really not suitable to rashly set the tax share without knowing the specific harvest."

King Qin became more and more disdainful.

Look, before he even exerted any force, she gave up.

Da Sinong's expression changed.

It was understandable that King Qin objected to him, but why did the princess also follow suit?

If they don't continue to promote it, what's the point of their hard work for the past six months?
Of course, wasting half a year was nothing. What made him feel uncomfortable was that although continuing to promote it was obviously beneficial to people's livelihood, the princess gave up because of other people's words!

This makes him unacceptable!
Just when Da Sinong was frustrated and wanted to stand up and say something in person, he heard Leng Lanzhi change his subject: "When every new thing first enters the market, it must be beneficial to the people. Only then can such things be known." Can you afford the test?"

"And the third brother is right. It only took half a year to do the sweet potato experiment. It was indeed too short. We might as well let the people directly participate in the second phase of the experiment in the next six months.

The imperial court paid for sweet potato seeds or seedlings to be distributed to the people, and the people voluntarily chose to plant or not plant.

Those who choose to plant are considered to be cooperating with the court to conduct experiments. When the harvest comes, the court only needs to send people to check the status of the goods, while the people can keep all the fruits. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone? "

"What nonsense!"

King Qin sneered: "In this case, wouldn't the imperial court suffer a big loss?"

Leng Lanzhi raised his eyebrows: "Where did the imperial court suffer?"

Immediately, courtiers from the prince's party stood up to speak for Leng Lanzhi: "The seeds and seedlings were purchased by the common people from the imperial court, using their own land. In a few months, no matter whether they can plant successfully or not, it will be a bumper harvest or The compensation was a complete mess, the court even received the money used to purchase the seedlings, so it was obvious that we only made a profit, not a loss, right?"

King Qin's party choked for a moment, but he quickly responded: "If they use their own land to grow sweet potatoes, they will occupy the living space of other crops and affect the tax revenue of other crops!"

The prince party sneered: "Mr. Yang, have you never planted land? Generally speaking, farmers will have a piece of private land in front of and behind the house, and they will choose to grow vegetables on it. The private land is quite large, and it can fully meet the needs of growing sweet potatoes. need."

"Besides, even if there is no need for private land, there are so many barren mountains and wastelands in the village. Since sweet potatoes can adapt to various harsh living environments, let the people open up wasteland and plant sweet potatoes in the developed wasteland. In this way, we can not only provide Our Shengguo has opened up more usable land for cultivation, and it can also solve the problem of sweet potato planting, and most importantly, it can solve the problem of food shortage. It kills three birds with one stone, so what if they are exempted from the sweet potato tax this year?"

The two parties were quarreling fiercely.

Emperor Jianliang's head was about to explode from their noise, but he was not in a bad mood, because the minister who spoke just now spoke to his heart: "What Han Qing said is absolutely true, so we will do it."

However, he did not let the people spend their own money to buy sweet potato seeds and seedlings. After all, as an emperor, he was more tolerant than everyone in the field.

He waved his hand and made the decision immediately.

The imperial court distributed free seeds or seedlings, and people could choose to plant sweet potatoes in their own plots or open up wasteland.

The reclaimed land was given free use to the pioneers for three years. After three years, the fertile land was returned to the court.

As for the tax on sweet potatoes, it is completely exempt in the first year.In the second year, the tax share will be determined based on the harvest of the first year...

Emperor Jianliang made the decision, and although King Qin was unwilling, he could only accept it.

He squinted his eyes and suddenly said: "Father, the wheat yield in Northern Xinjiang this year is very good, five points higher than the normal wheat yield. Erchen believes that there is no need to conduct experiments and can be used directly. "

At the beginning, he proposed to experimentally promote seeds from Northern Xinjiang and secured the opportunity to do the experiment, but it was too late. Although the experimental fields were planted later, and the seedlings are growing well, there was not enough time, and the wheat has not yet matured. , cannot be calculated as output.

It stands to reason that since the results will be available in just a few months, he should be calm and patient.

But when he saw Leng Lanzhi being praised and affirmed by his father, he couldn't calm down.

Leng Lanzhi looked at him expressionlessly: "King Qin, this sweet potato has been studied hard by me and Da Sinong for two seasons, and it was confirmed that it can be widely promoted in Shengguo before it was discussed in the court. .

Is the wheat in your experimental fields not ripe yet?

If you do an experiment and make a hasty decision without waiting for the results to come out, then what is the point of the experiment?
I and Da Sinong have been busy for more than half a year, what is the meaning? "

The King of Qin snorted coldly: "What do you know? The reason why sweet potatoes are tested is because they are low-level things introduced from foreign countries. If they are not tested, if they are promoted rashly, the hard work of the people for a year will become a phantom. If you are hungry in winter, can you bear the blame?"

"As for the wheat seeds in Northern Xinjiang, they are the best wheat seeds produced in our prosperous country. They can survive in the harsh environment of Northern Xinjiang, and there will be no problems in other places!"

He did not look at Leng Lanzhi, and raised his fist towards Emperor Jianliang: "Father, the sooner we promote the wheat seeds in northern Xinjiang, the sooner the people of our Sheng Kingdom will realize a peaceful and prosperous age with no worries about food and clothing! Please, Father Make a decision early!”

Immediately some courtiers followed suit.

Emperor Jianliang frowned: "Let's discuss this later."

He was actually very moved.

After all, the phrase "a peaceful and prosperous age with no worries about food and clothing" is too lethal.

However, Jialuo and Da Sinong were still there, and they had been busy for half a year before they got him to let go. If he agreed to promote wheat seeds in Northern Xinjiang because of a few words from King Qin, the two of them would definitely get into trouble.

Being an emperor is difficult.

It was difficult for Emperor Jianliang to compromise in the end.

Because in the next few days, the mother clan behind King Qin took action.

There is no other way. Once sweet potatoes are successfully promoted and the food problem is successfully solved, it will be a huge achievement!

Although Leng Lanzhi has always been in charge of promotion matters, who doesn't know that she and the prince are siblings?

Aren't her achievements the same as those of the prince?

When the time comes when this unprecedented wealth falls on the crown prince's head, the crown prince's position will be more secure, which they don't want to see.

"How could your Majesty do this?!"

Liusha almost died of anger when she learned that King Qin still got the right to promote wheat seeds in northern Xinjiang. (End of chapter)
