"Is it expensive?" An old minister asked.

Du Jinning thought for a while: "The price should be twice that of ordinary rice seeds. ”

Everyone nodded. As long as the seeds that produce seven stones per mu are not ridiculously expensive, no one is willing to buy them for planting. You must know that except for seeds, the cost of labor, fertilizer, and time is the same. With an extremely high yield, the little money to buy seeds is nothing.

Before everyone could figure out how much money Du Jinning could make in a year in this matter, they heard Du Jinning say: "I don't take a penny of the money I earn on rice seeds, and all of it is used to reward people who have contributed to agriculture and water conservancy, or to fund the construction of water conservancy in poor areas." The reason why this money was not directly handed over to the court was mainly because it was hoped that the funds would be earmarked. The court could send an official from the household department to supervise the accounts and the movement of funds. ”

As soon as they heard this, the little discomfort that had just arisen in everyone's hearts disappeared.

Although the high-yield rice was researched by Du Jinning alone, at the time of research, Du Jinning was still an official of the court, holding the court's money, and relying on other officials to share the chores during her tenure, so that it could be developed in such a short period of time. Now she is named the eldest princess because of this credit.

If Du Jinning just took possession of high-yield rice and used it for his own profit, and did not let the court occupy a little side, the old ministers would never allow it.

But everyone also knows that Du Jinning has researched high-yield rice, which belongs to the state, but it is unreasonable to want people to cultivate rice seeds for the whole country for free year after year.

According to their ideas, Du Jin would rather get part of the profits from the sale of rice seeds, and the other part should be collected by the state treasury, so that it is more reasonable.

Now Du Jinning said that she has cultivated rice seeds for the country for a long time free of charge, and asked to only use the money she earns for agricultural water conservancy, which is for the sake of the whole country.

The entire south of the Yangtze River in the Great Song Dynasty is planted with rice in two seasons a year, and it is conceivable how many rice seeds are needed in a year, and how much profit is from this transaction. Du Jinning didn't think about it, he opened his mouth and gave up the profits, this courage, even if they are big men, they are ashamed of themselves.

In addition to admiration, everyone's eyes unconsciously looked at Qi Bokun.

In their cognition, if a woman marries into her husband's family, then everything about her belongs to her husband's family.

Du Jinning doesn't ask now, and directly gives away such a large amount of benefits, and I don't know if Qi Bokun will feel guilty.

Qi Bokun knows everyone's thoughts.

He stood up happily and said to Zhao Yu: "Jinning has always been a child who is compassionate to the world, and it can be seen from her writing "Farming" and selflessly spreading her years of planting experience. For her selfless mind, the old minister can only admire and admire. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone remembered that Du Jinning really taught all the planting experience in "Farming" without reservation. This is extremely rare in ancient times when any technology was hidden like a family heirloom and treasured by itself. It can be seen that Du Jinning has a selfless character and a broad mind.

In the past, everyone didn't have much contact with Du Jinning, but they only listened to Zhao Yu and Qi Bokun's praise, and their impression of her was only that she had studied high-yield rice and that she was the champion of the previous session.

Now that we have such a contact, everyone really agrees with her from the bottom of their hearts and accepts her.

There is more than one official here who is a loyal reader of "The Story of Farming". One couldn't help but say: "Since the princess is back, then it's time to continue writing "Farming", right?" I wonder when the next volume will come out? ”

Everyone looked at Du Jinning with burning eyes.

Du Jinning said: "I will hand over the manuscript to the printing workshop for printing as soon as possible, and a volume will be published in about ten days, and another volume will be published on the first day of next month." ”

"I'm looking forward to it." Another officer stroked his beard and said.

Everyone laughed.

Du Jinning said with a smile: "Adults can ask the family to buy some mountains to plant fruit trees. In this new volume of "Farming", I will introduce you to the method of grafting fruit trees. The fruit trees planted by this method have few pests and diseases, can bear fruit quickly, and the fruit tastes good and has a large yield. ”

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Those who have studied "Farming" will find that the planting methods introduced by Du Jinning in the book are all very mature and reliable, as long as they do what they say, they can always get something.

This is also the reason why "Farming" is extremely valuable and sought after by so many people.

So as soon as the volume of "Farming" mentioned by Du Jinning comes out, there will definitely be many people who buy the mountains and plant fruit trees. Du Jinning greeted them in advance, that is, to sell them a favor and show that he was willing to befriend them.

If Du Jinning said this as soon as she came up, maybe everyone would still disdain her favor, and even think that Du Jinning was currying favor with them. It can solve the previous anti-counterfeiting and crime problems, and Du Jinning's ability has been recognized by everyone; Later, the rice planting incident made everyone affirm and admire her character, and now she sells favors to everyone and shows favor to everyone, and the feelings of the ministers are very different.

"Thank you princess for reminding me, this is a lot of money." An old minister laughed happily.

"Not really. A certain princess is in love. Others chimed in.

Hong Huazhong has mixed feelings in his heart.

He finally understood why Qi Bokun would rather let the Qi family and Qi Muyuan be chewed upon, and he would be desperate to marry Du Jinning into the door.

Such a talent, such a mind, such a good way to behave in the world, not to mention those hairy boys who have just entered the career, even the old foxes who have been officials for decades are not as good as themselves, not to mention the granddaughter of his family who only knows how to play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, the two are completely Haoyue and fireflies, not the same.

A strange woman like Du Jinning is fortunate to be friends with her, let alone marry and become a family.

With a wife like Du Jinning, it is completely conceivable how far Qi Muyuan can go. And with such a mother, it is really unimaginable how the next generation of the Qi family will be.

He sighed deeply.

Qi Bokun didn't even look at him, only stroked his beard and was secretly proud, and he was extremely satisfied with Du Jinning's face in front of his old friends.

Zhao Yu sat at the top, looking at Du Jinning's eyes shining, and the regret in his heart was only known to him, and at the same time, he also strengthened his determination to let Du Jinning participate in the government.

There is a wise mother who is not averse to women's participation in politics. As long as he has no dissenting intentions, as long as he can help him govern the country well, he hopes that Du Jinning will become a big help for him in politics.
