Capital City, Imperial Palace.

Emperor Longxingsheng took the book recorded by Ji Song and carefully read it from beginning to end before closing the book with some unfinished content.

"well……"

"The world is getting worse, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be!"

"Thinking back to those days, when the Zhou Dynasty was founded, there were still many wise ministers in the court who were good at herdsmen and controlling the people, like Uncle Zhongyong."

"Now, in the civil and military dynasties, there is only one loyal and brave uncle!"

Fortunately for Emperor Longxingsheng, at least he still had Uncle Zhongyong available.

The world of the Zhou Dynasty was like a huge pasture, with many cattle and horses grazing. The emperor was the rancher, and the officials were like herders who specialized in grazing.

Ranchers and herdsmen all eat cattle and sheep, but they cannot eat them without restraint. They must at least fatten the cattle and sheep before killing them, and leave some seeds for the coming year.

Now the officials under him don't raise the cattle and sheep properly and don't let them eat grass. They have eaten all the cattle and sheep.

As a result, there were only a few cattle and sheep in the pasture, and he, the rancher, had no meat to eat.

Emperor Longxing Sheng sighed, recalling how fat the cattle and sheep in the pasture were in those prosperous times.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates have received another piece of news this time."

Seeing that the emperor had finished reading the booklet, Ji Song continued to report.

"My subordinates have received news that King Qi's Dantian Sea may have reached nine feet and nine inches."

"Nine feet nine inches?"

Emperor Longxingsheng was stunned for a long time before he could react.

"It's like this..."

Ji Song told the emperor what Er Gouzi said and expressed his speculation.

"Hahaha……"

"That must be the case. As we all know, Uncle Zhongyong only has a few friends in total. Who else can meet the requirements besides King Qi!"

Emperor Longxingsheng also agreed with Ji Song's speculation. There were few people close to Ergouzi, so it was easy to guess.

"This kid looks like me!"

"As calm as I am, I can keep such a big thing in my heart, even I don't know about it."

"He is a great achiever!"

Emperor Longxingsheng was in a good mood for a while, and a thousand years later, another unrivaled strong man emerged from the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The root of all problems is still lack of strength.

"Don't make this matter public, don't let anyone know."

"Yes, I understand."

Ji Song is also a child of the royal family, so he naturally understands the stakes here.

No one wants a peerless strong man to suppress them in the future, especially the imperial court, a place where power is intertwined.

There will also be some overt and covert fights among the 99 princes.

The best way is to nip the genius in the cradle before it matures.

"Jisong, please take two bottles of Jiuyang Guiyuan Cream from my warehouse and give them to King Qi."

"A nine-foot-nine-inch Dantian still requires a lot of resources."

"yes!"

Ji Song received the order from Emperor Longxing Sheng and bowed before resigning.

"Hahaha……"

It wasn't until Ji Song walked away that Emperor Longxingsheng couldn't stop laughing. He had never been so happy in so many years.

This kind of happiness is completely the kind of joy that comes from the heart of an old father when he sees that his son has become successful.

"Hahaha……"

"Sure enough, the tiger father has no dog sons..."

………………

In Sanyang County, Er Gouzi has been preparing food since Ji Song left.

At present, Sanyang County collects more than 3 million dan in land rent every year.

However, there are still many places in the county where food needs to be spent.

The civilian laborers he recruits every year will all be given food.

After excluding taxes to the court, troops under his command, and various expenses such as the nursery, there is probably about 1 million dan left every year.

After so many years, there are some leftovers every year, and they have accumulated more and more, so much that there is no place to store them.

Many warehouses have been built, but they still can’t fit.

The granary must be carefully guarded against insects, rats, ants, and fire and moisture.

Moreover, no matter how well you preserve it, food will still go bad if stored for a long time.

As for the out-of-town merchants who come to Sanyang County to buy grain, they can just buy it from the tenants.

Since Ergouzi only charges 20% of the land rent, many tenant farmers also have surplus grain at home and will sell some of it.

Ergouzi, who has suffered from hunger and cold, likes to accumulate food, money and cloth.

Now looking at the large amount of food saved every year, he feels pain and happiness.

He put all the grain that couldn't fit into the gourd.

You don’t have to worry about being eaten by bugs and mice when you put it in a gourd, and it won’t go bad. It doesn’t matter how long you keep it.

The only drawback is that when ordinary grain is collected and taken out, it has turned into spiritual grain.

The grain stored in the gourd now amounts to at least more than 10 million shi, and the marching pills also contain more than 100 shi.

Ergouzi also often took out part of the food from the gourd and distributed it to his soldiers and the nursery.

It's just that the speed of food consumption is far behind the speed of his accumulation.

Just as he waited for about a month, Sima Yi finally came with someone.

Er Gouzi took Zhu'er and went out of the city for more than ten miles to meet him.

After not seeing each other for many years, Sima Yi already had white hair reaching his waist, and with one black eye and one red eye, he looked more like an evil cultivator than Old Demon Hu.

"Yi Ge! You are finally here!"

Several years have passed since the last time the two of them said goodbye in Xiexiu City. They reunited after a long separation, and they couldn't hide their excitement.

Er Gouzi patted Sima Yi on the shoulder and glanced at the crowd, but didn't find the other figure he was expecting.

He was a little disappointed, but didn't say anything.

"Is this my brother's wife?"

Sima Yi looked at the girl with eight legs and sighed in his heart. Er Gouzi was indeed extraordinary. The wife he found was so special.

Zhu'er felt sweet when she heard this, and her face turned slightly red.

"My name is Zhu'er. I've heard Er Gou say that you are his family."

"Let's go. Let's go back and talk about it in detail."

Er Gouzi led Sima Yi and his party back to Sanyang County, killed a few blue-eyed spirit cows, and held a banquet to entertain them.
