Qin Zhao almost returned to Huangzhuang in a rage, and soon after, Lu Qingjin also rushed back with three cars of glass, and asked helplessly when he saw his sad face; "What's going on here, could it be that the victims are really that serious?"

Qin Zhao took a sip of water before speaking; "It's really serious, now that the treasury is empty and there is not enough money and food, these victims are afraid that they will all freeze to death this winter, and the corpses alone can cause a plague, and we have almost no way out."

Lu Qingjin gently patted him on the back; "Don't worry, didn't we just harvest potatoes, this thing grows fast, if I plant it myself before winter, I can harvest it twice more, and most of these victims will not starve to death after it is promoted, don't worry."

Qin Zhao put his head on her shoulder a little tiredly; "It's good to have you, just listen to you, I'll let people start promoting it tomorrow, and the victims outside the city will wait for the results of the general's investigation."

Lu Qingjin hummed softly and took him to dinner, after the meal, the spirits of the two of them have improved a lot, Lu Qingjin said proudly; "I just remembered that there are still a lot of fungus in the warehouse of this Huangzhuang, and I will take you to see it later." Qin Zhao rolled his eyes disappreciatively, but obediently followed.

When he entered the warehouse, Qin Zhao knew how wrong he was, perhaps because Lu Qingjin's Yan Emperor bloodline was too strong, and the fungus in this warehouse was about to overflow, and the palm-sized fungus abounded.

Lu Qingjin seemed to be not very satisfied and walked in; "This fungus looks pretty good, but it's a pity that the place is too small, and I originally thought that it would be promoted with potatoes, but it seems that it will not work now."

Qin Zhao watched the guards take off the basket of fungus and take it out, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Why not, isn't there a lot, I see that there are almost half of the potatoes so much." ”

Lu Qingjin turned his head and smiled; "This is not the same as potatoes, the cultivation of fungus is very rare, rather than letting them take it to plant it, it is better for them to eat, or promote potatoes first."

Qin Zhao had no opinion, the two of them entered the palace with a basket of black fungus, Si Nong's people had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw the two of them, they saluted and said excitedly: "Weichen deeply thanks Your Majesty and Niangniang for your great kindness, once this potato is promoted, I don't know how many people will no longer have to go hungry." ”

Lu Qingjin waved his hand: "You don't have to be happy too early, you should also understand this people, they are generally unwilling to accept novelty things, I'm afraid that some people would rather starve to death than grow potatoes." ”

Qin Zhao frowned and led the two of them to the imperial study: "This is indeed a problem, you should think about whether there is any other way, at least you can't let the people resist too much." ”

Si Nong stroked his beard and said: "This is really not a good way, but Weichen heard that there are a lot of victims outside the city, and they generally don't care much about these, so it is better for Your Majesty to let them eat first, and when the people see it, they will naturally believe it, saving us a lot of trouble." ”

Lu Qingjin took a sip of tea and shook his head: "This idea doesn't work, not to mention that we don't have so many potatoes at all, even if there are those refugees who only know how to eat and don't know how to plant." ”

Qin Zhao rubbed his forehead and said helplessly, "Then can you tell me if there is any better way?" ”

Lu Qingjin thought for a while and said cautiously: "Shengshi Pavilion has already sent Xiao Ling to teach the method, and the dishes made of potatoes will come out tomorrow, this must be a good way to make a reputation, I heard that Shengshi Pavilion has attracted a lot of people from the Western Regions, and people from the Western Regions are often more accepting of these things, and they will not be too repulsive if they think about it, and they can also let the people know subtly." ”

Si Nong stood up excitedly: "What Niangniang said is very reasonable, when the time comes, potatoes will be considered a more expensive dish, and the restaurants in the capital must want them, and the people will look for them even if they want to make money." ”

Qin Zhao nodded with satisfaction: "Now that there are many fish and dragons in the capital, it is not excluded that some people have crooked thoughts, Sinong still has to start first, I will give you a batch of potatoes, you will take people to publicize it first, and you must let the people understand that this is not a bad thing, and it will be good for restaurants to promote it when the time comes." ”

Si Nong agreed and left happily, Lu Qingjin made a thoughtful salute and went out, the corners of Qin Zhao's mouth moved and he didn't speak.

As soon as Lu Qingjin arrived at the gate of the Queen's Palace, he heard Concubine Li's voice coming out: "The Queen's mother is back, we have been waiting for you here for a while!" ”

Lu Qingjin came back to his senses and smiled helplessly: "Where are you waiting for me!" I think I've taken a fancy to these white fungus lotus seed soups in my palace, so let's talk about how things are going on with me first! ”

Hearing this, several people laughed, but Concubine Yun said: "We gave you a promotion, presumably the potatoes will be sold out of stock in a few days." ”

Lu Qingjin was worried about this matter, and his spirits were lifted when he heard this: "What did you do?" When the emperor was talented, he still had a headache and couldn't promote potatoes! ”

Concubine Shu answered: "It's not your sister Lu Youruo, she went to Shengshi Pavilion to make trouble today, Lord Chang Lin not only suppressed it but also made a ruthless accusation, we thought that you asked us to send someone to pick up the potatoes, thinking that they would be sold in a few days, so we sent someone to the following to spread some words, saying that potatoes can strengthen the body and beautify the skin, and now most of the capital knows about it." ”

Lu Qingjin shook his head amusedly: "This can be regarded as a crooked hit, and it is not difficult to promote potatoes, just watch it,"

Concubine Li nodded: "This matter is really nothing, but I just heard about the flood of victims outside the city, this is not easy to do, the victims can't eat all of them anyway, it is inevitable to die and be injured, and if such a large group of people get the plague, it will be even worse." ”

Concubine Xian thought for a while and said: "Since there are already a lot of potatoes, there are not enough places for fungus and white fungus to grow, we might as well hire this group of refugees to farm, most of them just ask for food and clothing, and they won't refuse if they think about it, the place outside the city is still big, why not do it!" ”

Lu Qingjin suddenly realized and nodded again and again: "What you said is so right, in this case, the potatoes don't have to be planted by the people first, the refugees can grow enough, I will go and discuss with the emperor tomorrow." ”

Several other people also breathed a sigh of relief, and Concubine Li smiled: "Everything else is over, and this dividend has been taken back, let's count it, except for half of the treasury, the rest is ours." ”
