Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

“Fang Qing... are you willing to take responsibility for your words?” After the ecstasy, Emperor Jing's expression returned to seriousness.

Such an important matter cannot afford any mistakes. If he leads the officials to Taoyuan County and finds out that he has been tricked, it will be a slap in the face of the entire court.

Seeing Fang Zheng's confident appearance, he couldn't help but believe him.

However, common sense and reason constantly reminded him that it was impossible for crops in this world to yield eight hundred catties per mu. You must know that the average yield per mu of crops in the country is only about three hundred and fifty catties.

To more than double it at once, wouldn't this world change?

“Your subject! Is willing to guarantee with his head!!”

Fang Zheng's sonorous and forceful answer shocked everyone.

However, there was still a small group of people who looked down on him and sneered.

Such a flattering person, if he buries things in the ground in advance, there will be a good show to watch.

“Very good! Tomorrow, we will set off for Taoyuan County! Which of you, my beloved ministers, is willing to accompany me?”

The officials naturally agreed with joy.

Fang Zheng's words were shocking. No news is bigger than this. If what he said is true, then the future of the Great Jing is limitless.

If what he said is false, there will be a good show to watch. Who wouldn't go to such a good thing?

Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Inviting the emperor to Taoyuan was originally in the plan. The birth of sweet potatoes must shock everyone.

Shock after shock!

Only then can the news spread as widely as possible and vigorously depress the grain prices for the current and even the next few months!

In order to ensure the effect, he deliberately lowered the yield by several hundred catties.

Fortunately, Emperor Jing agreed. He wrote to Taoyuan County two days in advance to prepare early. He hoped that the people in the county could prepare better....

After leaving the court, Fang Zheng ignored Li Yuanzhao's shouts and ran straight to Mingluan Hall.

Recently, sanitary napkins have not been promoted in the palace. He heard Li Yuanzhao say that the princess was scolded several times.

Fang Zheng was also very embarrassed.

However, he has been too busy with work and has not had time to pay attention to this matter.

Now is a good opportunity... This time, he can also persuade the princess to go and let her see the women's medical center in Taoyuan County, and by the way, popularize some common sense for her.

Li Miaohan is young. If she retreats after being scolded a few times, can sanitary napkins still be sold?

He can't really rely on Li Yuanzhao to sell sanitary napkins in the palace, otherwise Emperor Jing would slap himself?

Fang Zheng ran in front, and Li Yuanzhao scolded and chased after him.

However, due to his recent hard work, his originally good physical fitness failed to catch up.

When he arrived at Mingluan Hall, he found that Fang Zheng was already sitting with Li Miaohan, and Li Yuanzhao sat aside helplessly and angrily.

Fang Zheng smiled and said: “Your Highness, Princess, long time no see, how is your health recently?”

Li Miaohan blushed and said shyly: “Thank you, Sir Fang, for your concern. This palace is in good health recently, but... the promotion of sanitary napkins... is really a bit difficult... I'm sorry.”

What an honest girl! She is simply the opposite of Li Yuanzhao!

Fang Zheng said: “Your Highness, Princess, you have already done a great job! After all, this is for the benefit of the people of the world. How can it be solved overnight? Don't worry! I, Fang Zheng, will always stand by Your Highness's side.”

“Your Highness doesn't need to be too anxious. Some things are counterproductive if you are too hasty. It just so happens that tomorrow His Majesty will set off for Taoyuan County. Sanitary napkins have already been promoted in Taoyuan County. Your Highness can go to the county to learn some advanced experience.”

“Moreover, the princess can also relax in Taoyuan County. You can live in my house. My house is quite big. If you are tired from shopping, you can go straight to sleep. No problem!”

After listening to Fang Zheng's words, Li Miaohan lowered her head shyly and nodded almost imperceptibly.

Yo ~ The princess is blushing, Fang Zheng secretly smiled.

Li Yuanzhao next to him was already going to eat people!

His eyes were shining red, and he said angrily: “Lao Fang! You can't be so shameless!”

“Brother! Why are you talking like that! Sir Fang cultivates crops for the people of the world, and he also makes sanitary napkins for the women of the world. How difficult must it be for him! It's too much for you to talk like that!”

Before Fang Zheng could speak, Li Miaohan raised her pretty face and looked at Li Yuanzhao with indignation.

Li Yuanzhao was immediately struck by lightning and stood there dumbfounded.

Fang Zheng quickly said: “It is really embarrassing for this subject to say that, Your Highness. This subject is just doing his duty as an official.”

“His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also been running around for the people these days, and this subject feels pain in his heart when he sees it.”

Li Miaohan looked at Fang Zheng admiringly, and then glanced at Li Yuanzhao with disdain.

Everyone is human? Why are you so bad?

Li Yuanzhao was initially unable to speak, but when he saw Li Miaohan's eyes, he became furious: “Then go sleep at his house!!”

“Brother! What nonsense are you talking about? You are too much!” Li Miaohan's eyes slowly turned red, and then she ran away crying.

Fang Zheng smiled awkwardly and shouted at her back: “Princess, don't forget to come tomorrow. This subject is waiting for you!”

Then he turned his head to look at Li Yuanzhao and said: “Your Highness... then I will go home and prepare first, and we will leave tomorrow.”

After saying that, he ran away as if flying, and Li Yuanzhao chased and scolded him behind him.........

Inside the Taoyuan County Yamen.

Ao Chen was holding a letter in his hand, with twenty-five people standing in front of him, and a group of clerks waiting around for orders.

“Everyone, the master has sent a letter with tasks assigned to you.”

“Everyone here is proficient in arithmetic, and the master trusts you deeply in the way of business. This task is of great importance and will last for one year.”

“The master said, let you choose for yourselves. Those who are willing to go can stay, and those who are unwilling can leave on their own.”

“Those who are sent out this time will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver each upon their return. From now on, the county government will be fully responsible for all expenses of their families in the medical center, and even the tuition fees for your children will be covered by the county.”

“These are the conditions, everyone, decide for yourselves!”

For a long time, none of the twenty-five people left.

Ao Chen continued: “Okay! Since everyone has defaulted to participate, then I will explain the master's instructions.”

“The twenty-five people present will take one hundred thousand taels of silver to the south for disaster relief, mainly in Jianjiang Prefecture. Take action when grain prices fluctuate and return after one year.”

“We don't seek profit, but we can't lose money either. One hundred thousand taels of silver are taken out, and this one hundred thousand taels of silver must be returned intact!”

“Do you all understand?”

One person suddenly raised his hand and said: “Did the master explain the specific progress to what extent? Do we need to suppress grain prices?”

“The master didn't say, but he asked you to bring a boatload of sweet potatoes. If necessary, spread the news in the market and take action when the opportunity arises. The rest is to do your best and leave the rest to fate.”

“Also, the master sent back a map of the south. Take it with you when you leave.”

After saying that, Ao Chen took out a map and handed it over: “Okay, that's all. Be sure to pay attention to safety. If you have any questions, write a letter at any time. Everyone, go back and prepare as soon as possible.”
