After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 70: Born with knowledge? Unrest in the southwest!

Chapter 70: Born with knowledge? Unrest in the southwest!

Looking at Chen Huaixin in the Mirror of Heaven.

Not to mention the officials related to the aristocratic families.

Even Ji Qingluo couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"This guy."

“It’s not something that is innately known, is it?”

"Isn't the knowledge he possesses a bit too vast?!"

Ji Qingluo narrowed his eyes.

but.

She didn't pursue the matter any further.

Instead, he turned his attention to .

On the body of the Minister of Agriculture who had resigned from her!
"I have failed your majesty's trust and I voluntarily resign from the post of Minister of Agriculture!"

The Minister of Agriculture looked at Ji Qingluo and said very seriously.

This is the first official who has voluntarily resigned after so long of predicting the future!

What happened in the Heavenly Mirror made him too embarrassed to continue serving as the Minister of Agriculture!
But Ji Qingluo didn't want to fire him, even though he had been refuting Chen Huaixin before. But when Chen Huaixin brought out the evidence, he was the first to give in.

"He is thinking about the people, but...his ability is a little weak!"

As soon as Ji Qingluo had this thought, he immediately shook his head.

Compared with Chen Huaixin, even Prime Minister Wang Qianhe cannot compare with him!
Isn't it natural that a mere Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture appears to be slightly weaker than Chen Huaixin?
"and."

"The most important thing is."

"He is not deeply involved with the aristocratic family!"

"Even if his abilities are a little weak, his heart is with the people, which is already pretty good!"

Ji Qingluo was about to say something.

The eldest daughter of the Emperor, Ji Changning, had already spoken: "Your Majesty, I think that I should not resign from the post of Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, because even Chen Huaixin only realized what he had missed after being reminded by his future fourth sister."

"Before this, because of the immortals, our country was concerned about the things in the fields and the yield of staple food per mu!"

"It is perfectly normal that you have not noticed other vegetables, crops that are inconvenient to store, or things with various defects!"

Ji Changning was very serious.

after all.

The immortal era of the past still has a huge impact on them even now!
Just like before Chen Huaixin invented the hot air balloon, no one would think that ordinary people could reach the sky, not even anyone had such an idea!

In the past, the magic spells used by immortals were all aimed at the crops in the fields. Vegetables like lotus roots and water chestnuts were not what the immortals cared about at all!

"so."

"Prince Sinong Temple."

"Rather than quitting your job."

"Why not find a way to get rid of the influence of the immortals, get rid of the neglect caused by the immortals, and then think about whether there are other crops that have not been noticed that can be used to benefit more people!"

Ji Changning persuaded.

And this was exactly what Ji Qingluo wanted.

She looked at the Minister of Agriculture, then glanced at the Heavenly Mirror, and followed her niece's words and said, "Regarding the matter of planting, my country is short of manpower now. Instead of resigning, why not think about how to better plant and store those local products!"

"After all, they have many flaws that need to be solved by you, the Minister of Agriculture!"

Listen to Ji Qingluo's words.

The Minister of Agriculture hesitated for a long time before slowly nodding his head.

"This time."

"I hope I will live up to your majesty's trust!"

【After recording the crops that come to mind. 】

【Chen Huaixin handed it over to the Prime Minister and asked him to arrange for someone to try it.】

[After knowing the reason, the Prime Minister also showed excitement on his face! ]

[“I didn’t expect that.”]

[“My Yu country actually has such a magical object!”]

【“If it can be promoted.”】

【"Then our people will no longer have to worry about going hungry!"】【The Prime Minister was filled with joy. 】

【But Chen Huaixin shook his head. 】

【In his opinion.】

[These things can only be considered treasures, but they cannot be called divine objects! ]

[Unless all its shortcomings are solved, such as the planting area of ​​lotus root, water chestnut and water chestnut is limited and needs to be as close to the water source as possible, and eating too much taro and yam will cause stomach problems, and even touch will make hands itchy, and the land requirements are high and must be improved, etc.! ]

[“But there is no such thing as perfection in this world!”]

[“And even though they have many shortcomings.”]

[“But all of these are nothing compared to being able to fill one’s stomach!”]

[The Prime Minister is already very satisfied. ]

[June, the seventh year of Jingping.]

【The Minister of Industry reported a piece of good news. 】

【After nearly four years of trying. 】

【The first batch of large-scale farmed pigs are finally ready to be marketed. 】

【After castration of boars. 】

[Not only do they no longer like to fight, they are easier to breed, and their meat no longer has the strange smell it once had.]

【“As for cooking.”】

【“Just boil it in water and add some salt.”】

[“It tastes really good!”]

[The Minister of Industry said happily.]

[This work, which lasted for nearly four years, has finally come to a successful conclusion. The burden on his shoulders has been lightened, and he is naturally happier.]

【Chen Huaixin looked at the boiled pork in front of him and didn't say anything about frying or stir-frying, because iron pans are still a relatively scarce commodity for ordinary people today, not to mention that if there isn't enough oil, the food won't be as fragrant when fried or stir-fried.】

[Being able to eat boiled meat is considered a rare delicacy even by some merchants! ]

[“How much does pork cost?”]

[“It is still slightly more expensive than beef and mutton at the moment, because it is only raised by the Ministry of Industry and can only be supplied to one city at most. It cannot be popularized throughout the country for the time being.”]

[“What if we make the technology public so that ordinary people or businessmen can also raise them freely?”]

[“Of course there is no problem with this, but the market price… I am overthinking it!”]

[The Minister of Industry almost forgot that the Commercial Law has been implemented throughout the country.]

[Even if it is allowed to be raised by merchants, the price will only drop slowly! ]

【“So.”】

[“Ordinary people will soon be able to eat cheap pork!”]

[“Your Majesty was determined to compile the Commercial Law... You really had foresight!”]

【Same month。】

[Chen Huaixin is discussing matters concerning sea salt with the salt official.]

[Although the technology he provided originally allowed the poisonous salt mine to become edible salt, the price could not be reduced much due to insufficient quantity.]

【so. 】

【Large-scale extraction of sea salt is crucial! 】

[“If it could become a commonly used salt.”]

[“Even the poorest people.”]

[“No need to rely on salt and cloth to live anymore!”]

[Yanguan was very happy.]

【but. 】

【Just then. 】

【The Prime Minister arrived in a hurry. 】

【"His Majesty."】

【“There is unrest in the southwest again!”】
