Li Zhao thought of something and immediately told the housekeeper.

The housekeeper was stunned. He didn't know that the young master suddenly wanted to buy a jade statue. He knew the market. The jade market at the moment was a big problem.

I heard that the price of jade has dropped sharply, almost to the point where no one cares about it. Many dignitaries have even thrown jade items into the market. If the young master wants to buy in large quantities at this moment, he is seeking death!

What's more, the Li Mansion only has such a small amount of money, and it has been consumed, so what will it be used for in the future?

"Master, the jade statue is just a luxury item, why..." The housekeeper wanted to persuade, but was interrupted by Li Zhao.

"Listen to me and buy them all before someone buys them in large quantities."

Li Zhao's tone was unquestionable, and the housekeeper naturally did not dare to disobey him. As for the reason, he did not dare to ask.

...

Besides, Shang Xin, after returning to the palace, immediately reported back to Ying Zheng.

"Then the kid accepted it? How did he react?"

At this moment, Shang Xin did not dare to laugh, so he told Li Zhao's funny expression and unwilling words after receiving the reward.

Ying Zheng smiled. In fact, he also guessed that Li Zhao would have such an expression.

Shang Xin was very puzzled by Ying Zheng's grant, and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, increasing grain production is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, why should we give him barren fields?"

Ying Zheng glanced at Shang Xin, extremely serious, this was his majesty.

Shang Xin immediately shut up, knelt down and said, "You deserve to die!"

The emperor naturally has the emperor's thoughts and majesty. No one should say anything about what he doesn't want others to know.

After drinking away Shang Xin, Ying Zheng walked in the atrium and murmured:

"Boy, I don't mean to make things difficult for you. In fact, our Daqin has too many barren lands, so this move is of great significance. If you can really grow eight shi per mu of grain in the barren land, our Daqin's food industry will be prosperous and the country will be safe."

"I have more thoughts than anyone else. The current suppression of business has indeed caused the economy to wither. The people are complaining, and the remnants of the six countries are even more eyeing. The people must be fed and clothed, otherwise the country will not be able to survive. To solve all this, you are

The key, is it understandable?"

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

After the reunification of the six kingdoms, the Qin State was afraid that the remnants of the six kingdoms would cause trouble again, so they moved the powerful clans and wealthy businessmen to Xianyang City for easier supervision.

For Da Qin, this move was a last resort, but there were also disadvantages. No one could guarantee that these people had other ideas.

It is impossible to say that the remnants can restore the country by force, but it is difficult to say if they attack economically.

This is also one of the reasons why the Qin Dynasty suppressed Shang.

“It’s up to you whether you can ban the suppression of business.”

The fact that Ying Zheng bestowed the title on Li Zhao and Li Zhao's promise soon spread among the powerful. Everyone said that Li Zhao was deceiving the emperor. An eight-stone-per-mu yield? Two crops a year? Impossible. They had never

Have you ever heard of rice like this?

Not to mention the yield of eight shi per mu, even if it is three shi, they all doubt that there is no such high-quality grain in the world.

Moreover, if Li Zhao had no meritorious achievements, how could he be granted a title? Isn't this a waste of Qin's title system?

We must make the emperor take back his life and kill him quickly.

At the court meeting, Li Si was the first to come out and give important instructions to Li Zhao.

"Your Majesty, I know Li Zhao's situation best. He is a mediocre person in our Li family. He has never been to the fields. How can he know how to farm? This is clearly deceiving the emperor."

"I sincerely request your Majesty to immediately withdraw your order and capture Li Zhao."

As Li Zhao's uncle, he was also the prime minister, and he was also a representative of the powerful. His words were immediately supported by other officials.

This is a matter of righteousness and annihilation of relatives. It is rare for a prime minister to do this.

"I also think that Li Zhao is deceiving the emperor, and please your majesty to punish him immediately."

"..."

Ying Zheng had a straight face. Even though he said he was right and extremely powerful, it was difficult for him to get angry. The powerful people maintained the rule of the Qin Dynasty. If one of them was affected, it wouldn't be a big problem, but if everyone was affected, it would cause chaos in the Qin Dynasty.

On this point, he knows how to weigh it, and the powerful ministers also know how to handle it.

Feng Quji, the Prime Minister of the Left, saw that Ying Zheng's expression was wrong, and immediately stepped forward to smooth things over, "My ministers, the grant has been granted. Taking it back will only damage the credibility of our Great Qin, and is not advisable."

"Besides, why do you think Li Zhao can't grow eight shi per mu of grain?"

This was a pioneering and exaggerated move, and Feng Quji thought it was impossible, but he had to maintain the emperor's face.

As the Right Prime Minister, Li Si often disagreed with Feng Quji in terms of political views, so naturally he was not at odds with Feng Quji.

"What Mr. Feng said is wrong! The yield of eight stones per mu is too ridiculous. What is the difference between this and a pig on a tree? We don't believe it at all."

The ministers nodded in agreement, thinking that Feng Quji was just showing off.

Feng Quji glared sharply, became serious, and shouted: "Li Zhaonai was granted the title by His Majesty, is it possible that Prime Minister Li is questioning His Majesty?"

This sentence was quite fatal and immediately made Li Si speechless.

Finally, Ying Zheng said, "Don't criticize. Whether the yield per mu can be eight stones or not depends on half a year later. If Li Zhaozhen is deceiving the emperor, I will not spare him."

"Of course, if you think Li Zhao cannot be trusted, you can go to Chang'an Township to inspect."

“Whether you can or cannot, let the facts speak for you!”

These are words of relief! The purpose is to let the powerful know that he is not partial to Li Zhao.

Fusu was at the front. He immediately stepped out of the queue, held a scroll in his hand and bowed, saying: "Father, I am willing to go!"

This is preemptive strike.

Although he was pedantic, he also knew the seriousness of his father's move.

As far as the current situation is concerned, supervision is a bad job. You must know that these powerful people do not trust Li Zhao. Supervision will definitely be eager for success and will cause trouble. Let’s not say whether it will affect Li Zhao’s planting and Li Zhao’s harvest.

Sin is certain.

My father had great hopes for Li Zhaoke, so he should not let this dampen his interest.

Without waiting for the ministers to react, Ying Zheng immediately agreed, "It's OK."

After this happened, he quickly retreated from the court.

After leaving the palace, Li Si looked very unhappy, so he called his attendants, whispered in his ears, and the attendants took the order and headed towards Chang'an Township.

Ying Zheng didn't see anything on the surface, but he was very angry in his heart. These powerful people were so pampered and so comfortable that they dared to question his decision. This was not a good sign. In other words, if this situation continued to spread, the officials would be arrogant.

The direct result will be instability in the country.

Many people secretly call him a tyrant, but he doesn't know it. It's just that some things are not violent, and he knows the consequences better than anyone else.

Therefore, reforms must be made now to change this situation.

Whenever he was worried, he would walk in the courtyard and drift away.

In front of you is the back garden, planted with various flowers. Even in spring, some flowers are blooming dazzlingly, adding colorful colors to the gloomy sky.

At this moment, a woman in her prime was walking slowly beside the flower, moving her delicate hands to keep pruning. Next to it, pieces of unnecessary residual leaves fell.

She was dressed brightly but not extravagantly, and her slender and manageable waist showed her gracefulness in the restraints of the belt, especially the white gauze and silk, which looked like a flower fairy coming to the world when blown by the breeze.

She is none other than Ying Yinman, the youngest daughter of Ying Zheng, a girl who likes flowers and poetry.

The maids were all shouted back by Ying Yinman, fearing that they would destroy the tranquility of this place, or accidentally hurt the touch of red.

At this moment, the voice of the maid outside suddenly came, "See your Majesty!"

Yin Man raised her head slightly, her smile was like a flower, her skirt swayed lightly, and she walked out with lotus steps.

What an elegant girl.

"My daughter has met her father."

Seeing Ying Zheng approaching, the girl bent one knee and bowed gracefully.

As soon as Ying Zheng arrived here, all the worries in his head immediately disappeared, especially when his beloved daughter held her arms and pointed at the blossoming flowers and introduced them, which made him intoxicated.

"Yinman, your cultivation skills are getting better and better. Look at the daffodils, they are particularly beautiful."

Ying Yinman covered her mouth and smiled, feeling extremely beautiful. Her father rarely praised her brothers and sisters, but he did not hesitate to praise her.

"Father, I'm very grateful, but it's a pity that Yin Man is incompetent and can't make Cyclamen full."

Cyclamen was her father's favorite flower, so she, who loved flowers, planted them in large quantities. However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not grow satisfactory cyclamen. Either the leaves were withered or the stamens were wrinkled, which greatly affected the look and feel.

To this end, she has tried many methods, but the results are not good. The reason is still a problem of fertilization.

"No problem!" Ying Zheng waved his hand, not blaming him, but he still felt a little less elegant.

This flower is called cyclamen, but there are no cyclamen. Where is the immortality? Where is the cyclamen?

Ying Yinman saw her father's slight disappointment, and quickly knelt down and said, "Father, my daughter will definitely make this cyclamen full."

"Yes!" Ying Zheng nodded and smiled, seeming to be satisfied with her answer. However, his expression no longer had the elegance of appreciating flowers, and there was a faint hint of care.

Ying Yinman saw this care and was very stressed for a moment.

Her father hoped that the cyclamen would be full, but she couldn't do it. Although her father didn't say anything, she knew that he didn't like it.
