Chapter 604: Stand Out

During this time, Guan Zhengxiang's affairs were known to the court, and the issue of scripts and regenerated rice was also the focus of discussion in the court.

Compared with other departments, those people in the Ministry of Industry are engaged in academic research, and it is impossible to casually hand over excerpts to the emperor without thoroughly studying the cultivation methods and results of new rice such as regenerative rice.

Chen's affairs are different, he relied on the support of his family and the drill camp to climb up, this time he had this opportunity, and he also learned from Guan Jiaxing that the book was actually written by Guan Lehe's disciple Du Jinning, he was excited.

I have always held a grudge against Guan Lehe for squeezing him out and climbing into the Tuntian Qing Servant Shilangzhong. Now that he can take this opportunity to get him down and let Guan Le be dismissed from office like his brother, Director Chen's heart is happy.

Moreover, as an official, what you are most afraid of is obscurity, and you don't know that there is such a person as you as an official emperor all your life. If you can make a splash and put forward refreshing opinions in front of the emperor, then you will not be far from promotion.

So although he is not qualified to go to court, he is not helpless.

He summoned some officials for tea when he was resting, and explained his theory of "grain cheapness hurting peasants".

When it came to the interests of the family, these people naturally paid attention to it, and after discussing it with each other, the elder brother of Chief Chen brought up the matter in the court, and put forward the view that "grain cheapness hurts farmers, and regenerative rice should be treated cautiously". However, he couldn't figure out the emperor's attitude, and Chen's brother did not mention Du Jinning, so as not to be robbed of the limelight by Guan Lehe.

The officials who drank tea together came out one after another to "second".

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu was so angry that he almost didn't scold his mother in court.

It was the first time that Zhao Yu had heard of such a thing as regenerative rice, so he was immediately interested and asked the Ministry of Industry Shangshu for details.

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu had no choice but to report some of the information he knew, and finally said: "Because there are not many people who believe in the words of the book and put it into action to plant regenerative rice, there are only seventeen companies sent by the ministers. However, these 17 families all use high-quality fields to grow, and the rice has increased a lot, and those who take good care of it have half of the yield of the previous season, and those who neglect to take care of it can also have two or three percent. It has been proven that regenerative rice is a good thing to increase production and income. As for whether it will really be 'cheap and hurt the peasants' after the general promotion, this has to be carefully calculated by the household department. ”

Everyone in the DPRK and China secretly scolded the "old fox" in their hearts.

This old fellow is very shrewd, and only puts the numbers on the table, and nothing else. Anyway, this regenerative rice was not researched by the people of the Ministry of Industry, and they did not have much credit. The Ministry of Industry simply stopped arguing, kicked the ball to the side of Tobe, and he just stood by and watched.

"Everyone Aiqing also thinks that this is a bad thing, isn't it a good thing?" The emperor's eyes slipped to the officials from the poor family, and some people immediately came out to oppose the statement that "the grain is cheap and hurts the peasants".

Each has its own position, each has its own reason, and the court immediately argued, until the time of the dispersal of the dynasty, they failed to fight for a reason.

The emperor finally said: "In this matter, the household department will conduct research and analysis to see if the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages." Retreat. ”

When the dynasty was dispersed, it was natural that the officials standing in the back would go first, and the officials standing in front would slowly move outward. Qi Bokun walked out slowly behind the other ministers, thinking in his heart who would write the "Farming Record".

As soon as he heard the word "script" and heard that it was about farming, he naturally thought of Du Jinning.

If it was another child, he wouldn't think about her, after all, she was a poor man, and it was only right to work hard and study at this time, even if he had an idea in his heart, he had to hold it back, and wait until he was admitted to the Jinshi before he came forward.

But Du Jinning is really not an ordinary child in Qi Bokun's eyes. With this little guy's ability, it is not surprising that Qi Bokun is not at all surprised to make waves in the capital now.

Qi Bokun originally wanted to ask Guan Lehe if he knew about this. But Guan Lehe probably remembered to go back to see Guan Zhengxiang, and walked very fast, and when Qi Bokun came out, he had already gotten into the carriage and left the front of the palace.

Qi Bokun thought about it, and simply sent the little servant to Taixue to call Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan back to Qi Mansion, and he himself went home first.

Du Jinning had just finished school, and after receiving the message, he hurried to Qi's house with Qi Muyuan, and Qi Bokun had already asked the kitchen to make a rich meal and wait.

Seeing the two of them coming in, he smiled and said, "Eat first, and then talk after eating." ”

Even if Taixue is the highest institution in the Great Song Dynasty, the students are either rich or expensive, and the food in the canteen is quite delicious, but in the end it is still not as good as the food carefully cooked by their own chefs.

Du Jinning was not polite to Qi Bokun, sat down happily, lifted the chopsticks and ate with the grandchildren.

After eating, Qi Bokun asked Du Jinning: "Is the book of "Farming" written by your boy?" ”

Du Jinning nodded embarrassedly: "Exactly." ”

"You kid." Qi Bokun tapped Du Jinning with his finger and scolded with a smile, "Silently making such a big move." Do you know that for the regenerative rice you proposed, the court almost didn't fight today? ”

In front of Qi Bokun, Du Jinning didn't need to hide his mind at all.

She nodded and said, "The positions are different, and the conflict of interests is not able to see it in person, but I can also guess it." ”

Qi Bokun gave her an appreciative look and a thumbs up.

He asked, "What do you want to do with such a book now?" ”

"Only when the vertebrae are placed in the sac can they show their edge, so that they can recommend themselves. I don't have any foundation, even if I pass the examination, if I want to stand out among the hundreds of jinshi who participated in the palace examination, I have to show my edge first. That's why I wrote this book. This is actually the same as those candidates who go around in Beijing to participate in poetry meetings and want to make a splash. ”

Although Qi Bokun could guess Du Jinning's intentions, he was still full of emotion after listening to her words.

If you want to stand out and attract the attention of the Beijing officials and the emperor, this is what many candidates want to do. But how many can succeed? The means by which everyone comes and goes is to write articles and poems, but Du Jinning caused controversy among the courtiers with a book of words and made the emperor pay attention, which is really unprecedented.

"How do you know about such a thing as regenerative rice?" Qi Bokun asked curiously.

He hadn't had time to read the book "Farming" yet, but he heard the Ministry of Industry Shangshu mention it in the court. He knew that Du Jinning mentioned in the script that double cropping rice could also be planted in this area of the capital.

Du Jinning proposed that double cropping rice is not unusual, after all, people in that area of Gui Province have been cultivating double cropping rice for two or three hundred years. Although the capital is northern, it is not impossible that the season is well arranged.

It's just that this regenerative rice, even he has never heard of it, how did Du Jinning know, and let the person who read the script plant it successfully in one fell swoop, which made Qi Bokun very curious.
