Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“I can produce all kinds of high-yield seeds. Ask the national treasury to buy all the seed shops in Da Ling at a high price. In the future, we will be the main hub that distributes the seeds to the seed shops in all parts of the country for the people to buy.
“No matter where I am, as long as there is a shop selling seeds nearby, I will produce a large number of seeds and put them in that shop. Then, that shop will distribute them to other shops for people to buy. They can pretend that they have good seeds that you had someone specially buy from others.
“Then, after repeated selection, they would become these better seeds. Wasn’t that how the seeds in our seed shops came about? The national treasury was offering a high price to buy it. Those who have seeds to sell will be willing to sell them.
“However, in order to prevent the seeds from growing mold due to improper storage, I plan to take out as many seeds as Da Ling uses in a year. That way we can avoid all the trouble.”
“Yes, I’ll issue the decree tomorrow.” Xue Yan had no objections. This matter was extremely beneficial to the people and Da Ling, so it had to be done as soon as possible.Fôll0w current novÊls o/n n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(c/o/m)
Besides, she was telling him to settle this matter as soon as possible.
Now that he was the Emperor, it should be done quickly. He did not have to explain anything to anyone, so he could hide her strange behavior.
During morning court, Xue Yan issued an edict ordering the Ministry of Revenue to take charge of this matter.
It was a good thing for the country and the people to have the best seeds to plant. The prime example of their success was Pingan Town in Xinyuan County. The villages around Pingan Town paid nearly four times the tax grain last year. It was because there was a shop selling good seeds in Pingan Town. The owner of the shop was very kind. He bought seeds from people everywhere and carefully selected them several times before selling them to the outside world. Even those seeds that had been carefully selected could have a high yield in the wasteland. The civil and military officials naturally heard Xue Yan’s edict and agreed, calling out the Emperor’s wisdom.
After the morning court session ended, Xue Yan had the civil and military officials follow him to the side hall for breakfast. After breakfast, he went to the royal study.
He wanted to discuss with the civil and military officials about him not staying in the capital city.
All the officials shook their heads in disagreement. They said that he had to be stationed in the capital city. Firstly, it was not safe for the Emperor to be outside. Secondly, there were too many important matters in the country that needed his approval. It would be extremely inconvenient to deal with many things without his presence in the capital city. It would not be so convenient to ask for instructions.
Xue Yan said that some matters needed to be dealt with beforehand. He would either be in the Imperial Capital or in Locust Village, directly approving the matter. As for the rest, he believed in the ability of the civil and military officials, as well as their loyalty to him that they would not be led astray. He also firmly believed that he had not misjudged them.
In other words, many things did not have to be handled by him.
The officials did not expect the new Emperor to have such boldness. This was something that had never happened before. They were shocked and impressed, and they were moved to tears. The Emperor trusted them so much that they would be the ones leading the charge. They would sacrifice their brains and liver for the Emperor until they died.
On one hand, Xue Yan was busy discussing matters with the officials in the royal study. On the other hand, Xue Sifu and Princess Jin each held Jiang Yue’s hand and led her to the High Duke’s Public House to wander around.
Since Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin were going to hold a wedding in February, the people in charge of the Public House had been busy since the afternoon.
The reason why they were in such a hurry was that Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin planned to set off on the same day as Jiang Yue and the others to return to Locust Village.
