As soon as these words came out, all the courtiers were stunned.

That's the Gaozhuo Mountain Range, the territory of the demon clan!

When they think about this, their hearts chuckle.

Yes, he has never returned, isn't our worry just now unfounded?

When they were about to rejoice, a strange thought flashed in their hearts.

The little emperor knew that there was no return or sent Qi Xiao out, wouldn't this be more serious than the death penalty?

The joy on the brows quietly disappeared, and he lowered his head and said no more.

Lin Hao saw through their thoughts at a glance, and did not continue to ask, suddenly thought of something, and changed the conversation:

"After the disaster, what is the population of my country?"

"Your Majesty, since the end of the disaster, the population of our Great Qianhou State has plummeted to 10 million, of which no less than 20 million people have fled to Baishan Houguo and other countries. ”

A civil servant stepped forward and told the truth.

This is a word that poked Lin Hao's heart, he already knew that it would be like this, took a deep breath, and said:

"Expand the scope of enrollment of the imperial examination system, and all those who were born in the Great Qianhou State can come back to register even if they are far away from their hometowns, so as to bring back the people who left as much as possible. Also, what about agriculture?"

"Yes, back to Your Majesty, in terms of agriculture, the geographical location of our Daqianhou country is special, the four seasons are distinct, and the common crops today are wheat and rice, but last year's drought and flood went together, and the people did not harvest. ”

"After the disaster relief, the grain stocks in the imperial city have also bottomed out, and I just hope that this year will be smooth, but now the spring seeds are all a problem. ”

The civil servant continued.

"Yes, if there is no seed, how can this grow crops? ”

"That's not a repeat of the mistakes of the past. ”

"Your Majesty, this must not happen again. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, we have to figure out a way. ”

The courtiers were worried.

In the final analysis, the Great Qianhou State is just a small vassal state, and if it were not at the geographical boundary point between the north and the south, there would not be such a big climatic difference between the north and the south.

Originally, the people relied on rice and wheat to make a living, at most plus some climatic vegetables, and in winter, the people in the north had almost nothing to eat, and sometimes starved to death, while the south was slightly better, and could simply feed their stomachs.

But after all, there is a shortage of food, coupled with the wars in recent years, the merchants from the north and south have also scattered and fled to other places, so that the life of the people is even more difficult.

Lin Hao frowned.

If we don't manage it with policies, I'm afraid that last year's uprising will make a big comeback.

Just when he didn't know how to do it, a clear voice sounded in his head:

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the 'business' task in the 'internal affairs system', whether to receive it or not, the task will be completed and you will get a lucky reward, note: The lucky reward is a reward other than pills, exercises, and treasures. ”

"Yes. ”

Without hesitation, he chose that the originally dim card in his mind lit up, with two words written on it, "business", but this card seemed to be larger than the others.

Wouldn't it be nice if business could get the job done by issuing an edict like talent?

Thinking so, the corners of his mouth lifted into a meaningful smile.

When the courtiers saw their little emperor sitting on the throne and suddenly smiled at the air, their backs were cold, and they couldn't help but panic.

Could it be that the little emperor's ** illness has been committed again? Wouldn't it? We have only now seen the hope of the Great Qianhou State?

Qian Lao said nervously:

"Your Majesty?"

Lin Hao was suddenly pulled back to reality, his demeanor returned to normal, he realized that he had just lost a little bit of his temper, and pretended to be calm and coughed lightly: "What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty is alright?"

Qian Lao asked cautiously, staring at him deadly, for fear of missing any of his small details.

"I have nothing to do, but I just think that the number of merchants in the country of Daqianhou is decreasing, which is not a good thing for us, as far as I know, and our neighbor Qingshan Marquis is located inland and rich in resources. ”

"If we can open up the way of commerce with them, won't my Great Qianhou Kingdom be able to survive the crisis?"

"Didn't we have a quarrel with the Marquis of Qingshan? Now we want to trade again, but I'm afraid they won't agree. ”

"But Your Majesty doesn't seem to remember at all, yes, he was only six or seven years old that year, what can he remember?"

"Now we have to rashly open the way of merchants, I am afraid that the Marquis of Qingshan will not agree, and maybe they will sarcastically mock us. ”

As soon as these words came out, all the courtiers whispered one after another.

Ten years ago, Ao Guang controlled the government, in order to control the flow of the people, suppress the merchants, a total of 100,000 taels of goods from the Qingshan Marquis were detained in the Daqian Marquis, not only did they not pay, but also killed dozens of people from the Qingshan Marquis Merchant Brigade to shock the people.

If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't be distracted because of the riots in the Qingshan Marquis at that time, they would have asked them for an explanation, and it was also this incident that the Qingshan Marquis completely cut off trade and trade with the Daqian Marquis, and in the past ten years, the two countries have never crossed paths.

Now it is not easy for them to open the way of merchants again, and today's Qingshan Marquis is not the original Qingshan Marquis.

Now the merchants of the Qingshan Marquis are among the top five vassal states in dozens of princely countries, which shows what kind of realm the merchants have reached.

Lin Hao heard some useful news from their various words, and pondered for a moment and said:

"From now on, restore and improve the previous merchant system, and implement it nationwide, and the interests of good businessmen must be protected.

"Your Majesty is wise, and you are convinced. ”

The courtiers were overjoyed and bowed respectfully.

After the restoration of Shangjia, the people of my Daqianhou country finally have one more way to make a living.

But after imprisoning businessmen for so many years, can the people still believe in the imperial court?

Lin Hao continued to ask:

"Who is willing to send an envoy to the Marquis of Qingshan on behalf of me to express my intention for trade?"

When the courtiers heard this, they were still angry just now, and at this moment, they were silent like turtles with shrunken heads.

What is there in this Qingshan Marquis that actually scares them like this, could it be that there is a secret behind this matter?

This Ao Guang is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose, I thought he had solved the trouble, but I didn't expect another one!

Lin Hao was confused, this was a voice in his head:

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden quest of 'Restore Trade' in the 'Internal Affairs System' and 'Agriculture' missions!The host will receive a lucky reward: Potato*10000, do you want to receive it?"

This is the main hall, how can I get it? Not to mention the amount of it?

The system, your charcoal in the snow, it's too scary in time.

If this comes out of nowhere, these courtiers must not be scared to death?

He secretly whispered a few words, swept his gaze to the courtiers, evoked a smile, and pretended to say mysteriously:

"All the ministers turned around and exited the main hall, counted to fifty and then entered the hall, I want to surprise you, Xiaolinzi, you go out to supervise them. ”
