The matter of the Streamer Pavilion, Ran Fang had no intention of hiding it, but now that it was exposed by Yingzheng, there was not the slightest embarrassment on his face.

Instead, he smiled faintly on his face, he knew that Ying Zheng was quite concerned about the graceful thing in his heart, and since he said that he didn't care, then he would treat it as if nothing had happened.

It's just that he didn't expect that this dignified emperor would have some things that would also hinder his face.

"Your Majesty, this matter is ...... Speechless. ”

"Your Majesty wants the minister to solve the supply of the army, so you can't let the minister make money out of thin air, right?"

"Then this money naturally has to be paid by someone, but the minister has just become an official, and even the money for those soldiers has to be paid by the minister's private treasury, so the minister has to make this decision."

"First, it is to fill the treasury, and secondly, the ministers are also to let those rich merchants and armor can contribute to Great Qin."

"Now that Great Qin is heavy on agriculture and suppresses business, those rich businessmen are already carrying their tails between their legs, this time give them a chance to spend money, or something that His Majesty has personally used, I think they will be very grateful in their hearts."

"It's a win-win, so why not?"

This remark is completely from the perspective of Great Qin, everything Ran Fang has done is also for the development of Great Qin, and he has no selfish intentions.

But what the facts are, Ying Zheng knows it.

However, only Ran Fang could do this, and he didn't intend to blame Ran Fang.

"It is very gratifying that there is such a heart."

But Ran Fang, who was standing behind Ying Zheng, had some doubts in his eyes.

He couldn't help but ask, "What Mr. said is a little too biased?" ”

"Now that there is a shortage of food in Daqin, it is not a good thing that more people need to invest in the production of food?"

"This emphasis on agriculture and suppression of business is just for the better development of Daqin."

Ran Fang knew that this idea was not only Fusu alone, but that everyone in the court felt so.

Since the beginning of the Shang Dynasty reform, Daqin has embarked on the road of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing business, and Yingzheng has no intention of changing in a short period of time.

"Food is the foundation of the country, and there is no problem if you want to put it into food production."

"There are so many Qianshou who can cultivate land, and the land of Daqin will not change, if you want to increase grain production, the most important thing is not to increase the number of people who grow grain, but to fundamentally change the status quo of planting, which requires the development of planting agriculture."

"Presumably Your Majesty also knows that the farmer has already obtained the short curved plow, which has greatly improved the planting technology."

"Increasing grain production can facilitate the development of other industries, so that Daqin's economy can steadily improve."

"So heavy agriculture can, and at the same time, it is necessary to promote the development of other aspects, such as commerce."

"Only commerce can fill the treasury, otherwise it is impossible to improve Daqin's economy by relying only on agricultural development."

Nowadays, the level of technology is limited, and it is good that people can be fed and clothed.

Even Ying Zheng knows that although this matter is said to be like Ran Fang, if it is done, how can it be such a simple thing?

I couldn't help but feel that although Ran Fang's words were reasonable, he had never understood the real suffering of the people in this world.

"Why don't you want to be widowed, but now that the people are not clothed, how many people can be fed and clothed?"

"Although this is easy, it is difficult to do."

Ying Zheng has the people in his heart, and he has seen it with his own eyes every time he goes on patrol, so when he says this, there is still a sense of powerlessness in his eyes.

This kind of look is something Fusu has never seen.

He always thought that his father was thinking about immortality all day long, thinking about how to dominate the world.

But he never thought that in his father's heart, he was still deeply concerned about the people.

"That's true, Mr. also said that although my father ordered the land to be handed over to the head of Qian, who would be willing to give it to the local officials and merchants?"

"If you want to do what my husband thinks, I'm afraid it's a little difficult."

Seeing the look of embarrassment in Fusu's eyes, Ran Fang knew what they were worried about.

He also knew that even in later generations, there would be food problems, and some countries would need to import food.

However, the land of Daqin is vast, many of which have not yet been utilized, and the technical level is also limited, which will lead to this problem.

"In fact, there is a way to change the current food problem."

"It's just that Your Majesty's approval is required."

After speaking, Ran Fang's eyes looked at Ying Zheng, waiting for his answer.

Seeing his cunning expression, Ying Zheng did not agree immediately, but asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Ran Fang's eyes were firm, and he slowly said a word from his mouth: "Iron." ”

"If iron can be used for Qianshou, then it will be easier for them to cultivate and more wasteland will be cultivated."

"Moreover, it is definitely a good thing that the use of iron can also improve the technology of farming and improve the efficiency and effectiveness of farming."

From the moment he said an iron word, Ying Zheng's face was a little ugly.

Fusu couldn't understand it, Ran Fang spoke very conservatively when he was in prison, how could he be so bold after he became an official in the court?

"Sir, now that the remnants of the old country are eyeing each other, if iron is used for Qianshou and they make sharp weapons, how should they deal with Great Qin?"

"At that time, Mr. also said that he wanted salt and iron to be owned by the imperial court, and now he says so, which is a bit contradictory."

Needless to say, Ran Fang also knew their worries.

It's just that in his opinion, this is not a problem at all.

"That's right."

"But if iron is made into agricultural tools, how can it fall into the hands of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms?"

"Making farm tools is just to increase yields, and it is also for the convenience of Qianshou farming, so I will give them when they plant the land, and take it back when they don't use it."

"Every place has an official yamen, just let them supervise it."

"This not only solves the problem of theft, but also increases food production, why not?"

"Not only iron tools, but even ploughing cattle can also be trained by special personnel, and the output of ploughing cattle can be increased for the use of Qianshou, so that it can be more efficient?"

"In this way, if it is inconvenient for the people who cultivate the land, the area of that land will definitely expand!"

This method is somewhat new, and no one has ever thought that this place could be managed centrally.

The expression on Ying Zheng's face was also much better than just now, and the eyes that looked at Ran Fang also returned to his previous attitude

"Qing is really smart."

"Then this matter will be handed over to you and Zheng Guo to be responsible, and as for the iron weapon, let Zhang Han discuss it with you."

"As for the matter of the Streamer Pavilion, the widow will no longer ask about it."

"But if the supply in the army is delayed, the widow will punish you!"

"Okay, there is still something in the widow's palace, so I will go back first."

With that, he got up to leave.

With so many things pressing on Ran Fang, he didn't have the slightest nervousness on his face, but still looked calm.

"Whoa."

"Obey."

"Congratulations to Your Majesty."

After Ying Zheng left, Ran Fang looked at Fusu, who had not left.

He sat casually on the couch next to him, thinking that it would be too inconvenient to sit down and stand up, so he would make some chairs in a few days, and he would still sit hard.

Thinking about it, his gaze turned to Fusu and asked, "Is there anything else to do with Fusu?" ”

Fusu nodded, and also learned to sit down with Ran Fang.

Then he whispered: "The people of the four major salt merchants have all entered Xianyang, but they have not reported to the imperial court, nor have they identified themselves. ”

"If it weren't for my people's careful observation, I'm afraid they would have been deceived by them."

"Have you ever wondered, sir, why do they behave like this? Isn't there some ulterior secret? ”
