After being busy in Dali Temple for a while, seeing that the early dynasty was about to retreat, he hurriedly went to the palace and reported Du Jinning's actions in Runzhou's farming.

"Rice and fish farming? Corn? Zhao Yu looked at the excerpt written by Du Jinning brought back by Qi Muyuan, raised his eyes, and asked Qi Muyuan with great interest, "How do you raise fish in the rice field?" "Farming" doesn't say anything about it. ”

Now, Zhao Yu's interest in "Farming" is no less than that of book lovers among the people outside.

The plot of "Farming" is twists and turns, fascinating, the writing is white, there is no reading disorder, and it can make people forget to sleep and eat. Through the step-by-step struggle of a small character in the script, it can give people a great sense of expectation and satisfaction, and resonate with readers. The most rare thing is the fresh agricultural awareness and knowledge that is revealed everywhere in the book, which is refreshing, and I can't help but try it, and get great gains from the trial.

In the suburbs of the capital, according to the time when only one crop of rice was planted in the past, it should still be bare and there is no green in sight. But now I drove out from the city gate, and all the way through, I either saw the early rice seedlings that had been planted with rice seeds from Champa, or the fields full of green manure.

This change allowed Zhao to discover new ways to influence and promote agricultural production.

In the past, if they wanted to promote or implement any agricultural orders, they always had to use all kinds of tough means to pressure the people to carry them out. The people did not know how effective this order was, and they were always resistant and unwilling to cooperate. Once it fails, the court and the Ministry of Industry will be subjected to all kinds of complaints, and the emperor will be repeatedly scolded for being unconscious.

But now, the people spontaneously and automatically cooperate, rushing to farm according to the method in the "Farming Record", because it is voluntary, they will be very careful in the implementation; Even if they failed, while they complained about the author of "Farming", they also complained more about themselves, but they did not have any resentment against the court and the Ministry of Industry.

Therefore, every time the issue of "Farming" comes out, Zhao Yu will get it as soon as possible, and then take the time to read it carefully.

Du Jinning said that there are many particulars about rice and fish farming, and if there is no experience and not strictly follow what she said, not only can not increase production, but will affect production. That's why she didn't write it in "Farming". Qi Muyuan explained.

Zhao Yu nodded, and asked again: "This corn is really as good as Du Jinning said in the excerpt?" ”

As a new grain, the officials of Gui Province will definitely mention it in the excerpt, but at that time, the old emperor was in power, and he lacked energy, so he could not pay attention to and promote this new grain. Zhao Yu was not a prince at that time, and it was reasonable that he did not understand this kind of food.

"It is true that the yield is very high, and the requirements for land are not high, if it is planted in a large area, it will definitely increase the grain production of the Great Song Dynasty. However, this kind of corn tastes good when it is young, but the tender corn is not resistant to storage, and it needs to be picked when it is old. The old corn pulls the throat and tastes very bad. ”

As a noble son, Qi Muyuan really hasn't eaten corn porridge a few times. However, once in a while, he was deeply impressed.

"It doesn't matter if it's good or not, it can increase production, so that people don't go hungry, especially in famine years, and it can save their lives, that's a good thing." Zhao Yu said, "Let Du Jinning plant in Runzhou first, if it can really adapt to the climate of Runzhou, then move north." If it can be planted on a large scale across the country, Du Jinning can be regarded as a meritorious person. ”

"It's the emperor's wisdom. The merit is immeasurable, and the emperor's merit is immeasurable. Qi Mu said from afar.

Zhao Yu laughed "hehe", pointed at Qi Muyuan and said, "You have also learned to pat on the back." ”

"Wechen doesn't dare, Wechen is telling the truth."

Seeing Qi Muyuan's tone of helping his family, Zhao Yu's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but finally shut up.

Although he is the emperor, he can control the heavens and the earth, but he can't control others to do the foundation. Qi Muyuan and Du Jinning are willing to do it, they don't hinder anyone, and they are conscientious in official affairs, so it's really hard for him to say anything as an emperor.

"Alright, you can go down." He simply came out of sight and out of mind, and drove Qi Mu away directly.

Qi Muyuan came out of the palace, saw that it was noon, and simply went to Zhuang Yue.

Zhuang Yue was not at home, but in the bookstore, and when he heard the report from his subordinates, he hurried back and asked, "Is my young master okay in Runzhou?" ”

"Okay, everything is fine." There is no need to suppress himself in front of Zhuang Yue, the corners of Qi Muyuan's mouth can't help but curl up again.

Zhuang Yue saw Qi Muyuan's expression, and his heart relaxed.

"How's the matter with the newspapers?" Qi Muyuan asked.

Speaking of this, Zhuang Yue was in a good mood: "The effect is unexpectedly good." Our young master is really talented. ”

He was about to find someone to talk about this, Qi Muyuan sent it to the door, and he immediately gushed endlessly: "Ah, Young Master Qi, haven't you seen that our "Shengshi Minbao" has sold tens of thousands of copies in just a few days. The students in several academies in the capital almost have one each. Not only in the capital, but also in bookstores all over the country, newspapers are selling well. ”

For ancient times, when the education popularization rate was not high and the number of literate people was relatively small, tens of thousands of copies were sold in a few days, which is really an incredible thing.

"How did it sell so well?" Qi Muyuan asked curiously.

"Naturally, it's because of the young master's "Farming Story"." Zhuang Yue said proudly, "The popularity of "Farming", the grand occasion of the first day of the new month, you also know if you want to come to Young Master Qi. However, "Farming" can only be published once a month, and our newspaper is published following the plot of the previous volume of "Farming", and it is in the most important and attractive section, those who are scratched by the situation of the previous volume of "Farming", naturally have to run to the bookstore to buy a newspaper to read. Our newspapers are not expensive, but they are much more cost-effective than buying scripts. ”

He smiled and said: "At the beginning of every month, there are thousands of people waiting for the "Farming Record" to come out, and each of these people has a newspaper, which sells thousands of copies; In addition, we also went to major colleges to promote it. The gentlemen and students in the academy are very interested in the 'study of mind' in the newspaper, and they have heard that they can still discuss it greatly, and whether they write an article for or against it, as long as it is well written, it can be published in the next issue of the newspaper. As a result, thousands of newspapers were sold. ”

Speaking of this, he sighed infinitely: "Our young master is really a genius in business." Whether it was the serialization of the script or the promotion in the academy, it was all proposed by the young master, and the effect was really beyond my expectations. ”

"Not really. Your young master's talent and learning, no one can compare. Qi Muyuan suddenly seemed to meet a bosom friend, and agreed with Zhuang Yue's words.

"How many people in this world can gather such wealth in just a few years? And it's not a business specialty, it's just an occasional idea in addition to studying. What's even more rare is that she has not only accumulated wealth, but also accumulated fame, and has also made certain achievements in Confucianism; In agronomy, it is ahead of everyone. Even if double-cropping rice could not be popularized in Jiangnan, the agricultural knowledge she disseminated in "Farming Records" could still leave a place in the history of agriculture in the Great Song Dynasty. Your young master is really a genius. Qi Muyuan sighed.

When he mentioned this, he felt completely different in his heart than before.

In the past, when Du Jinning was regarded as a man, he didn't feel anything except admiration. Because he knows that there are people outside of people, and there are heavens outside of heaven. There are always amazing people in the world, who are even better than him.

But now that he knows that Du Jinning is a woman, he is really emotional.

Although Du Jinning is a woman, she never takes a corner of peace, and guards the one-third of an acre of land at home like other women, and lives a small life of "husband and child hot kang".

She has the world in mind, carries the food and clothing of the people of the whole world on her weak shoulders, and works hard for "no hunger in the world". Her lofty ambitions and deeds have put all men in the world to shame.

Her business talent made the officials and imperial merchants of the household department ashamed of themselves; Her talents, her articles, and her achievements in Confucianism, how many people in the world can compare with her at her age?

She seems to have been born to stand at the top of the world, looking down on the common people and standing out from the crowd.

Thinking of this, Qi Muyuan suddenly had some kind of understanding in his heart.

He suddenly realized that he was wrong, he was completely wrong.

Since he knew that Du Jinning was a woman, he wanted to be with her. Thinking of the three-year period she said, he looked forward to the time flies, and three years have passed, and in the blink of an eye, Du Jinning is dressed in women's clothes, smiling and worshipping heaven and earth, entering the cave room, and living the life of a fairy couple with him.

Thinking about the life of my mother Su, the biggest thing in the day seems to be what to eat, what clothes to wear, what jewelry to wear, and then go to the garden to enjoy the flowers. Day after day, cycle after cycle. Look at other women, even if their lives are not as comfortable as their mothers, they all revolve around their husbands and children.

In the future, will he really confine Du Jinning to the back house and live such a boring life like other women?

Such a person who has traveled through the heavens and the earth, such a brilliant person, will let her be wiped out from everyone like this?

Think about it, after Du Jinning knew his heart for her, he once shirked and avoided it in every possible way, unwilling to accept his feelings.

At that time, he thought she was a man and had a normal sexual orientation, so he didn't want to fall into this intolerable male @& male love with him, so he rejected him.

Now that she thinks about it, she doesn't want to restore women's clothing, she doesn't want to trap herself in the back house, and bury her full economy and talent in pots and pans. It's just that in the end, she couldn't help it, she was moved by his affection and infatuation, so she was willing to make a sacrifice and said the "three-year" period, right?

"Three years, three years ......"

Saying these two words, he only felt that his eyes were astringent and his nose was sour.

He never knew that two simple words could be so heavy. These two words carried Du Jinning's affection for him, and they were so heavy that he couldn't breathe.

"Young Master Qi, Young Master Qi, what's wrong with you?" Zhuang Yue saw that Qi Muyuan suddenly closed his eyes, his brows were furrowed, and he seemed to be in pain, and hurriedly called out his name.

"I'm fine." Qi Muyuan took a deep breath and opened his eyes vigorously.

His eyes were clear and his gaze was determined. He made up his mind.

He doesn't want a three-year period. As long as Du Jinning can have a heart-to-heart relationship with him, she will dress up as a man for the rest of her life and do what she wants to do.

As for the family, children, getting along day and night, it is nothing before Du Jinning's wishes. I think that when he regarded Du Jinning as a man, didn't he think about having these?

As long as they love each other, as long as they love each other, it is enough.

"Are you alright?" Zhuang Yue asked.

"It's fine." Qi Muyuan shook his head, "By the way, where did we just go?" Now, he just wants to talk to people about Du Jinning, and he won't be annoyed by saying that he has been a day and a night.

Qi Muyuan has always been taciturn, although he is usually gentle to people, he always has a sense of distance, not as affinity as Du Jinning. Therefore, even if Zhuang Yue has known Qi Muyuan for many years, he has not dealt with each other a few times, and his speech is limited to greetings.

At this time, seeing that Qi Muyuan was willing to talk and was very interested in this topic, Zhuang Yue hid all his emotions despite his doubts, and continued to talk to Qi Muyuan about what Du Jinning had done, and also took out every major decision and money-making effect of Du Jinning.

The more the two talked, the happier they became, and the more they talked, the more speculative they became.

After chatting, Zhuang Yue's favor towards Qi Muyuan rose in a straight line, and he only sighed that Qi Muyuan was much stronger than his former young master Guan Jiaze.

is also from a wealthy family, Guan Jiaze is like a child who doesn't grow up, he doesn't know the hardships of people's livelihood, and he doesn't know how to make money.

Qi Muyuan is different, although he doesn't put too much energy into making money, but if he really wants to make money, it's not bad, at least he has this awareness. The business of the two partnership restaurants is very good. Qi Muyuan also invested all the money in his hand to buy tea in the mountains, and he can be regarded as a self-reliant person, not a gentleman who only knows how to reach out to his family.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Qi Muyuan got up and said goodbye: "In terms of newspapers, you have to pay more attention." If there's something you can't handle, come to me in time. ”

"Okay, Young Master Qi." Zhuang Yue said gratefully.

……

Lu Jiuyuan and the three of them have been really painful and happy these days.

Their articles were all published in the "Sheng Shi Min Bao", because the popularity of the "Sheng Shi Min Bao" has attracted a lot of attention, and the influence of their psychological theory is much greater than before, and there is an endless stream of literati and scholars who have come to visit them in the past few days.

Some of these people came to express their admiration; Others disagree with them and come to debate with them in order to refute them; Some want to make their reputation far and wide by stepping on a few of them; Others, purely for the sake of proximity.

Lu Jiuyuan and the three of them have been studying the study of mind all their lives, and now they have finally established the doctrine, and it has caused such a big repercussion, if it is refuted when the foundation is not stable, the theory will collapse, and the study of mind will be destroyed in one fell swoop, and their life's hard work will be in vain.

It is conceivable how much pressure the three of them have been under in the past few days.

After only a few days, the three of them couldn't support it, so they ran to Zhuang Yue and asked him to send someone to Runzhou to discuss an idea with Du Jinning.
