Chapter 85: The Meeting Room

Now, Ji Qiao is starting to work on the autumn harvest.

In fact, there is nothing to worry about, food is the root of life, and the people themselves will take the initiative to harvest it.

Ji Qiao just organized people to create some advanced production tools to provide convenience for the people to harvest rice.

In addition, we will focus on providing help and support to areas where war has occurred.

Ji Qiao is going to focus on the autumn harvest and let the people of Qi grow wheat in a large area to supplement the shortage of food.

As the saying goes, summer rice and winter wheat, wheat is a winter crop, which is planted just after the rice is harvested.

Therefore, while helping the people harvest rice, Ji Qiao has already begun to prepare for sowing wheat.

And after obtaining the consent of the king of Qi, he immediately sent people to notify the local agricultural officials to come to the capital to study.

......

A few days later, peasant officials from all over the country arrived in Linzi City.

Ji Qiao was afraid that these people would not listen to him, so he sent someone to invite the king of Qi to his mansion in the city to discuss things together, so as to increase his prestige!

King Qi was a little unhappy in his heart, discussing a matter, he actually wanted to go to Ji Qiao's Mansion alone, and his shelf was inevitably a little bigger! What would the ministers of the DPRK and China think if they found out?

But now that I have a request for Ji Qiao, I have to give this face.

But he brought the princess with him, and wanted to go to the situation of a party, and he didn't want to be so formal.

......

But when everyone arrived, they were stunned by what they saw!

Because Ji Qiao made a large conference room, which was built according to the style of the 21st century.

Oval desk with dozens of swivel chairs.

The table didn't have time to be painted, but it looked very magnificent! The chairs are wrapped in animal skins.

Ji Qiao hurriedly invited King Qi to sit on the throne.

But the king of Qi refused, thinking that this was too rude! Everyone sits together, there is no distinction between dignity and inferiority! And these tables and chairs are not nondescript.

Ji Qiao persuaded the conference, but King Qi still didn't sit still.

Since the king of Qi didn't dare to sit, those peasant officials didn't dare to sit even more.

Ji Qiao smiled: "Then you all stand in front of the chair, I will sit first, and there are important things waiting to be discussed." ”

After Ji Qiao sat down, Lin Shi and the princess immediately sat down, and they didn't care so much.

Suddenly, Lin Shi accidentally turned the chair and quickly stood up in fright!

Exclaimed: "What's the matter? This chair looks like it's going to collapse! ”

Ji Qiao ignored her, but kicked her feet, spun the chair around, and then returned to square one.

The princess was very interested after watching it! Immediately followed suit, and kept shouting: "Fun, fun, fun......"

Lin Shi immediately sat down again and followed the princess in a circle.

King Qi saw that his heart was on fire! What does this look like deliberating things? It's pure nonsense, especially these two women!

Lin Shi and the princess kept boasting: "It's really comfortable to sit and talk like this!" Legs and feet do not suffer. ”

Ji Qiao waved his hand, making the two Lin and the others quiet.

Then he carefully explained the sowing of wheat.

Then let people bring dozens of sets of bamboo slips and distribute them to everyone.

This is a set of agricultural production management plans that Ji Qiao asked people to copy.

After the peasant officials saw it, they were shocked! Hurriedly asked: "Young Master Qiao, how did you know this knowledge?" Much more advanced than our current technology! ”

Ji Qiao replied lightly: "Slowly figured it out." ”

King Qi didn't know much about agricultural production, but he was full of praise when he saw all the agricultural officials! I can't be wrong. So he said: "Let's do a good job, and then organize the people from all over the country to learn." ”

"Yes!" The crowd replied.

King Qi said to Ji Qiao again: "Before I came, I thought that Gongzi Qiao wanted to use his identity as a lonely person to elevate himself, but it seems wrong, you are really doing things for the people of Qi country!" ”

At this time, King Qi also sat down, touched the chair with his hand, and turned it slightly.

There was an expression of enjoyment on his face! And boasted: "This chair is so comfortable to sit on!" ”

When all the peasant officials saw King Qi sit down, they all sat down with him.

And then another shout of praise!

After a day of careful study.

Ji Qiao said: "If we continue to discuss tomorrow, the king will not have to come again." ”

......

After King Qi went back, he was a little unsatisfied! Then he called the princess: "You help your father do something, now take someone to Qiao Gongzi's conference room, and secretly bring back two chairs." ”

The princess looked down on her: "You refused to sit down at the time, but now you want to steal!" ”

King Qi replied: "Alas! After sitting down in that chair, my waist is very comfortable, and my legs are not guilty, which is a great pleasure in life! ”

The princess said with contempt: "Let Gongzi Qiao send you a few directly, why bother to secretly dismantle other people's conference rooms, how bad!" ”

King Qi sighed: "You don't know the suffering of your father! Lone must always maintain his image, not too casual, not too alternative, otherwise he will be admonished to death by the ministers of the DPRK and China! What's more, they will say that their father is a faint king!

That's why you are allowed to take it secretly, and if you are discovered by others, don't say that you are alone. ”

The princess was a little moved when she heard this, she didn't expect her father to be under so much pressure!

So he readily agreed: "Okay, I'll go and get four tomorrow, and I'll want two myself." ”

King Qi immediately shook his head and objected: "It's not good to take too much, everyone will know that the father wants it, and you will let Qiao Gongzi send it in the future." ”

The princess is right to think about it.

......

The next day, Ji Qiao came to the conference room and continued to discuss the matter of wheat sowing with everyone.

Unexpectedly, King Qi came again.

King Qi thinks this matter is very important! I must participate in it, so that the local agricultural officials can pay attention to it.

When everyone sat down, they found that there were six fewer chairs!

Ji Qiao thought to herself: The peasant officials will not dare to take it privately, Lin Shi asked people to bring four to the house yesterday, and the other two should be taken secretly by the princess?

So I didn't bother to say anything, so I just asked someone to go to the next room and bring six to make up for it.

Then he smiled: "This chair will fly." ”

"Dead Ji Qiao, it turns out that you have prepared so much! I don't even dare to ask for it, I'll take two more with me later. The princess felt that she had suffered a loss.

Lin Shi immediately asked, "Did you take it for the king?" ”

King Qi is a little embarrassed! But I still smiled at everyone.

Ji Qiao also understood that it was King Qi who asked her to take it, and if the princess wanted to, she would not hide it. smiled and said: "Princess, the king finally asked you to do something, but in less than a day, he was betrayed by you." ”

King Qi also smiled: "It's really unreliable to ask a woman to do things!" Let's get down to business. ”

......

After another day of intense study and discussion.

Ji Qiao said to everyone: "Tomorrow we will discuss it for another day, and you will rush back immediately, and you must do a good job of local rice harvesting and wheat sowing." ”

Everyone replied in unison: "Don't worry, Master Qiao, we will never dare to slack off!" ”

At this time, King Qi emphasized: "You must do your best to deal with this matter!" If anyone makes a mistake, Lone will not be spared! Qiao Gongzi's words are lonely, and you must obey absolutely! ”

The crowd replied in unison, "Your Excellency, don't worry! I will listen to Qiao Gongzi's instructions, and after I go back, I will immediately organize people to study. ”

King Qi waved his hand: "Gu and Gongzi Qiao discussed some things, and they all dispersed." ”

Everyone immediately got up and left, leaving only Ji Qiao and King Qi.

At this time, the King of Qi asked, "Gongzi Qiao, do you have a way to make the Qi Kingdom strong quickly?" ”

Ji Qiao stretched out two fingers and replied very vigorously: "Two words: change." ”

King Qi asked in surprise: "Change the law!" Do you study Li Kui or Wu Qi? ”

Ji Qiao was very disappreciative and said very angrily: "My transformation method is much stronger than these two!" ”

King Qi hurriedly shook his head: "No, the Qi Kingdom is now in the stage of connecting the previous and the next!" The old forces surnamed Jiang are unwilling, and they will resurrect at any time! The princes surnamed Tian are ready to move again, eyeing the throne! With such a drastic reform, there will be civil strife in the country of Qi! ”

Ji Qiao thinks it's right! It's because I didn't think from the perspective of King Qi, now that the Tian family has only been in Qi for more than ten years, the situation in Qi is quite unstable, and if there is a big fight, it will definitely bring shocks.

After thinking about the meeting, he said: "Then we will make a small change, and the fiefs of the princes will be managed by us in a unified manner to help them develop agriculture." Fiefdom taxes and slaves still belong to them, but the tax ratio is determined by us. After the reform, the income of the fiefdom only increased, and the income tax of the princes was much higher than before. ”

King Qi was still a little worried: "Although this is the case, I am afraid that the princes will not agree!" ”

Ji Qiao insisted: "How can we strengthen the country without reform? This will do so without harming their vital interests. If it really doesn't work, I will forcibly promote it, and in case of irreconcilable contradictions, the king can put all the blame on my head. ”

King Qi was a little embarrassed: "How can it be so!" ”

Ji Qiao was very open: "It's okay, the king can leave me alive then, and I don't care about anything else." ”

But the heart said: No matter how big the contradiction is, I will not obediently send it to death.

King Qi was very excited: "Okay! Qiao Gongzi let it go and save your life! ”

Ji Qiao immediately replied: "I'll come up with a specific plan tonight." ”

......

The next day, King Qi did not come again.

Ji Qiao directly read out the fiefdom agricultural reform plan designed last night, and asked everyone to copy a copy.

Then I gave a specific explanation to everyone.

The main contents were: the fields were distributed to each household, the slaves were also given land, the local peasant officials provided support and guidance for agricultural production, and the grain tax was collected by the state and then distributed to the princes in proportion.

In the end, Ji Qiao said to everyone: "The three-day study has ended, and after everyone goes back, we must intensify our propaganda and call on the people to take action to do a good job in harvesting rice and planting wheat, and at the same time implement the agricultural reform policy." ”

Everyone replied: "When I go back, I will do as Qiao Gongzi instructs." ”

Ji Qiao emphasized: "This is the king's will, and documents will be sent to various places." If any of the princes does not cooperate, you may report to the king or to me. ”

They replied, "We will do the king's will!" ”

......

Soon, the entire Qi country began to get busy.

Moreover, Ji Qiao also made a slogan and asked various places to brush up on big characters.

The content is: The spring breeze of reform is blowing all over the land, and the people of Qi must fight for energy!

After King Qi saw it, he also thought that this slogan was good! Practical and catchy!

But what I didn't expect was that the reform had only been carried out for a few days, and the peasant officials from all over the country came to report to the king of Qi: all the princes did not cooperate!
