Ministry of Industry and Agriculture.

A group of ministers were frowning.

"The nine-year compulsory course implemented by the Holy One is indeed a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people! In the future, he will be famous for eternity and become a saint who has never been seen in the ages! The price to be paid for doing so is a bit too great······ The imperial court can't support it! ”

"Nine-year compulsory education is actually nothing, it is nothing more than some investment in infrastructure, basic resources, etc., and the most important thing is the whole people's martial arts······ I can't eat! ”

This Lord Yang grabbed his few hairs, he was really worried, thinking that not long ago, he was still full of hair!

"Can't eat?"

There were ministers on the side who were shocked.

"It can't be, right? Didn't all the major families in the country voluntarily contribute all their food? And I remember that the first thing the Holy One did after he ascended the throne was to expand grain production, and I heard that this year's total grain production is at least three times that of previous years, how can this not be able to eat? ”

In the past, there was a food shortage crisis, and even a large number of civilians starved to death in many places, mainly due to the impact of the war and the hoarding of food by major forces.

On the whole, there is actually no shortage of food, and even if we can ensure that it is not wasted, the amount of food that the whole country has can fully supply the needs of 100 million people.

It's the kind where you can eat three meals a day, and you can eat every meal!

Of course, if you want to eat meat at every meal, you can't.

Because of the breeding conditions and breeding technology, the meat production in ancient times was relatively low, and it was impossible to supply so many people to eat meat.

Now, through the various pig, chicken, fish and other technologies provided by Xu Yi, meat production has begun to rise gradually, but after all, the time is still short, and there is no way to form a sufficient scale.

With the current national meat production, it is probably enough for the people of the whole country to eat one meal every other day.

But it's meat!

If it is just food and staple food, today's food should be enough to meet 300 million people!

It is only the second year of the Wu Dynasty, and even if there is a policy to encourage childbirth, in view of the time problem, the population of the whole country has not increased much, at most about 80 million.

Can feed 300 million people, but now you say that even 80 million people can't be satisfied?

Lord Yang sighed and said, "If it's just an ordinary person, these grains are naturally completely sufficient, but you don't know how much those martial artists can eat!" ”

"The grain that was originally prepared for two years has been consumed in just over half a year!"

"If this continues, it won't be a few months before there will be a nationwide food crisis!"

"Is it that serious?"

The other ministers had shocked expressions on their faces.

Although they knew that the Wu Dynasty was a little short of food, they didn't know that it was so short!

A nationwide food crisis?

In the past, this was not something that could not be understood, and it could even be said to be a normal thing.

Even if there are no natural and man-made disasters, because of the various exploitative behaviors of the family gate valve and the major grain merchants, you can still make a national food crisis out of it.

But now, with the nationalization of land across the country and the determination of grain prices throughout the country by the imperial court, theoretically there is no such food crisis as in the past.

It's not that Xu Yi's customized system is perfect, in fact, if someone wants to get in the way, no matter how perfect the system is, it is impossible not to have problems.

The reason why the ministers are not worried about the kind of things that happened in the past is mainly because of the absolute punishment system implemented by Xu Yi!

As long as you are found to have exploited the loopholes, you will be punished directly!

And it was an extremely harsh and cruel punishment!

Whether you are a family or a sect, once discovered, you will never tolerate it!

Under such a harsh penal system, no one dares to defy the condemnation of the world and do those things that violate the law and discipline.

With no one behind the scenes, and the country's grain production is so abundant, how can there be a nationwide food crisis?

According to the current grain storage conditions of the country, even if there are any natural and man-made disasters, as long as it is not the kind that directly affects the whole country, there should be no food problem.

But under such circumstances, only more than half a year later, the Ministry of Industry and Agriculture began to worry about the food problem.

After learning the specific data from Lord Yang, all the ministers also frowned.

The practice of martial arts by the whole people is a national policy set by Xu Yi, they can't and don't have the courage to refute it, and the only thing they can do now is to think about how to solve this problem!

"Why don't we continue to expand production? A doubling of food production should barely meet demand. ”

"It's easy to say, but where do people come from? Now the whole country is engaged in infrastructure! Engage in development! There is a shortage of people everywhere! It is said that now there are people who are ready to go to the grassland to arrest people! ”

"Huh? That's the way to go! If there are not enough people on the grassland, there are not many small countries in the south! We can't just go to them and arrest people! ”

"This kind of idea is good, anyway, the military strength of our Wu Dynasty is already invincible in the world, and the Vermilion Bird Legion can easily divide one or two hundred thousand people, which is enough to defeat the surrounding areas. At that time, won't the population problem be solved directly? ”

"You speak lightly! For our Wu Dynasty, there is indeed no problem in laying down these places, but what should be done about the follow-up management and governance issues? Although we are vigorously cultivating management personnel, after all, the time is still short, and there are not enough managers at present! ”

"It's okay if you don't have enough managers, you can use the method of razing first! When we have a manager in place, we can change it when the time comes. ”

This sounds like a good idea, but if you do, the follow-up guidance will become a difficult point! Even extending to issues such as late integration and education is a huge trouble! ”

"I think so······"

The ministers are here to discuss various solutions, but they are not ideal.

Either it will cause various problems in the later stage, or it will not be able to catch up with the time and cannot support their follow-up.

Some ministers couldn't help but sigh.

"If only there were those high-yielding crops that the Holy God said!"

"Potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn······ These ultra-high-yield grains can be used as both vegetables and staple food, and if these crops are available, even if they maintain their current scale, they can fully support the needs of the whole people to practice martial arts! ”

"It's a pity that these crops are all thousands of miles away in the Americas, not to mention the problem of whether it is difficult to find, even if you go back and forth, it will take at least several months, and far water will not quench your thirst!"

"According to the imperial court's plan, we won't be able to develop that piece of land until at least five years later!"

While the ministers were sighing.

Just listen to the boom.

"What sound?"

"Something seems to have fallen from the sky!"

"Let's go! Let's get out and have a look! ”

Everyone walked out of the main hall.

As far as the eye can see, it is a huge tin box, the size of a house.

Needless to say, everyone knew that most of the shaking just now was caused by this tin box.

"This ······"

Before they could figure out how the tin box could be here, the sharper ones had already spotted someone above the box in advance.

"Holy!"

The ministers bowed and saluted.

That's right.

The person above this iron box is the emperor of the Wu Dynasty, known as Xu Yi of Wuzu and Emperor Wu!

"Well, excuse me."

Xu Yi nodded, then stretched out his hand.

The iron door in front of the tin box opened with a bang.

Strange-looking, fruit-like things appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"This—These are ······"

Looking at this completely different product from the Central Plains, some people seemed to have thought of something, and their breathing began to become rapid.

"These are potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn, you can take them and grow them!"

Xu Yi said.

Before, he didn't collect these crops because he thought it was too much trouble.

But now, for him, who already has ten times the speed of sound, it doesn't take him two hours to make a trip back and forth to the Americas.

Coupled with the existence of super vision, it is not difficult to find a batch of potatoes and other crops at all!

When he was still on the North Coast, he had already found something after a glance.

Immediately, he used the power of the wind in the Bagua Dao to easily collect these crops, and the whole process added up to less than three minutes.

Even if you add the back and forth, it hasn't been until two hours.

The true element is broken, and in terms of the changes in the true element in the body alone, it is only doubled in all aspects.

But if it is combined with the physical body to break the limit, the changes brought to Xu Yi will be too big!

It is not an exaggeration to say that he was directly transformed from an immortal!

Not.

The current Xu Yi, for the people of this world, is actually completely deserving to be called a real immortal.

Imperity, invincibility, shattered void······

There are also all kinds of almost supernatural means that have evolved from the way of yin and yang, the five elements, and the eight trigrams, which are only beyond your imagination, and there are almost no things that Xu Yi can't do.

The current Xu Yi is much stronger than before before when he didn't have the True Yuan Breaking Limit, and even he can't confirm it.

Because the world simply can't withstand his power!

As long as he exerted a little force, the space of this world would be shattered, and he couldn't imagine how powerful he would be if he attacked with all his might.

The great grandmaster who could barely live with him in a few moves before, now Xu Yi can kill a large number of people with a single look.

In the pure realm, it is already difficult to describe Xu Yi's current combat power.

Don't look at Xu Yi on the surface, he is still a cultivation master, but the horror of his combat power is not at all what a normal cultivator can imagine!

Even those heavenly arrogant demons, in the face of today's Xu Yi, they have to bow their proud heads.

Maybe they can fight beyond the ranks, but it is only the Grandmaster Realm that rivals the Great Grandmaster Realm, and no matter how strong they are, they can only win the battle.

What about Xu Yi?

One look can kill a large number of great grandmasters!

It's all two dimensions!

But it makes sense to think about it.

After all, that's the four limits!

Legend has it that if you can achieve the four limits, you can reach half-step detachment in the future.

Detachment is to break the limit and break the shackles!

Break the limit of spiritual gas and break the shackles of time and space.

How many people have not been able to break a limit when they start their transcendental tribulation.

Xu Yi had just reached the second realm of cultivation, and he had already broken two limits, and they were the two limits of the physical body and the true yuan that most reflected the combat power.

To be able to have today's terrifying combat power is naturally not incomprehensible.

Below.

"It's really potatoes! I've seen the holy picture album, and it's exactly the same as the one drawn on it—it's all so ugly! ”

"It's ugly indeed! If it weren't for the Holy One, I really couldn't have imagined that such a thing could be used as food! ”

Modern potato varieties have been improved, and although they are not very good-looking, they can at least be seen.

The potatoes in this era are all pure wild, and they grow as you like!

If someone you don't know sees it in the wild, no one will believe you if you say it's poisonous.

Not only potatoes, but also other sweet potatoes, corn and other crops are also growing strangely, which makes people can't bear to look at them directly.

Of course, if it looks ugly, it will be ugly, as long as the yield is high.

Didn't I see these ministers who said that the potatoes were ugly, all holding these potatoes one by one, can't they be treasured?

With these high-yielding crops, the food shortages they had feared before disappeared all at once.

"Thank you, Holy Lord! They have brought such holy things to all the peoples! ”

······

Xu Yi didn't pay much attention to these ministers, and after leaving the relevant seeds and planting methods, he left directly.

The rest of the matter will naturally be solved by them.

Not only the seeds of potatoes and other crops, but also the seeds of peppers, tomatoes and other crops were also brought back to the Central Plains in the following time, wanting to enrich the taste buds of the Central Plains people.

Of course, the transplantation of rubber plants was also completed in the middle.

Even if you can't develop industry directly, it will be much easier to get more basic materials in advance and develop them in the future.

Because of the high-yield crop seeds brought back by Xu Yi, the last problem restricting the great development of the Wu Dynasty was also perfectly solved.

The nine-year compulsory course and the national martial arts practice are in full swing, and the comprehensive national strength of the entire Wu Dynasty is skyrocketing at an unimaginable speed!

Three years of the Wu Dynasty.

"The Suzaku Legion listens to orders!"

"Expedition!"

An army of 100,000 Vermilion Birds set out on the march, and wherever it passed, it swept invincible.

It took less than two months to quadruple the territory of the Wu Dynasty.

Then, immigration, management, education······

Five years of the Wu Dynasty.

The Suzaku Legion crossed the ocean and came to the American continent.

Needless to say, the Suzaku army completed the conquest of this land with absolutely invincible strength.

So far, the Wu Dynasty has completed an unprecedented feat and realized the unification of the Water Blue Star!
