Chapter 1043: Uncle Ding Makes His Move (2)
Grand Secretary Zhou stepped forward with a different attitude. Since the Shang Dynasty has sent an envoy, it’s important for them to come over. They’ve captured Shang Qingxuan for so long, but she hasn’t spoken yet. Rather than killing her and obtaining a corpse, it’s better to exchange it for something important and make the Shang Dynasty bleed.”
Jiu Xuanji was once again put on fire. He braced himself and came out.” She’s very stubborn. She has used all the punishments in Nether Prison, but she still hasn’t opened her mouth.”
Other than some neutral parties, the officials were divided into two factions, one supporting and one opposing.
Emperor Xia’s authoritative voice rang out.” Tell the Shang Dynasty that they want to send an envoy over. Tell the Taiyi Academy to use the palace’s sacred art, the Taiyi Stellar Sword Formation. If they dare to refuse, they will have to wait to collect Shang Qingxuan’s corpse!”
Zhang Ronghua had guessed that Changqing Academy’s Righteous Bone-Setting and Righteous Qi had been stolen. The old teacher had ordered people to collect information about the Taiyi Heavenly Stars Sword Formation and was ready to fuse it with the Great Five Elements Heaven-Breaking Sword Formation to create an even more powerful supernatural power.
Why didn’t he use the Taiyi Divine Sword Technique as a prerequisite? He had already obtained it and combined it with the Haoran Myriad Sword Technique to form the Haoran Divine Sword Technique. Its power was comparable to that of the Dharma Idol. The old man must have leaked some information to the Emperor, which led to this scene.
Whether they were willing or not, the Xia Emperor had already spoken. Pei Caicai and the others could only withdraw.
” No matter what method you use,” the Xia Emperor ordered.” Before the Shang Dynasty arrives, I want Shang Qingxuan to speak.”
Jiu Xuanji wanted to curse. He had thought that this was a good job, but now it seemed like he was going to take the blame again. He wanted to shift the blame, but there was nothing he could do. He could only agree helplessly.
The court session ended.
Zhang Ronghua, Ding Yi, and Tie Changlin walked out of the palace.
After leaving the Vermillion Bird Sect, the three of them boarded the Changping carriage.
“What a pity!” Ding Yi sighed. We didn’t get rid of him.”
” There’s no direct evidence,” Tie Changlin said.” This is not enough.”
” It’s like playing chess.” Zhang Ronghua smiled.” The game hasn’t been set yet. It’s easier said than done to slay a dragon.”
Back at the government office.
He entered the office.
Zhang Ronghua ordered some rice seeds to be sent over. After the things were placed down, he left.
Looking at the seeds in front of him, they had existed for many years. As for who discovered them, even the history books did not record it. However, the current yield was very low. Without the development of the Ministry of Works, the yield of rice was about 200 catties per mu. After the development of the Ministry of Works and the improvement of the varieties, it reached 300 catties.
However, this was far from enough for the Grand Xia Empire.
According to his plan, rice was the main ingredient for brewing Shangjing wine. With the current conditions, using rice to brew wine would be a waste of food no matter how much money he earned. He would not be able to get through this. Even if the rice after brewing could be fed to horses, cattle, sheep, and other livestock, it would still not work!
Only by increasing the production capacity of rice and allowing the yield per mu to reach more than 500 catties, or even more, could the wine-making plan be implemented.
The most important thing was…
The increase in the production rate of rice would have a huge impact. Once it was promoted and matured, the tens of thousands of citizens of Grand Xia would benefit from it. Everyone would be able to eat their fill, and the dynasty would be stable. There would be no rebellions, and the country would be peaceful. Only when there was happiness and stability would they be able to seek a better life. Only then would they be able to prosper and develop towards a better future.
Even if there was sufficient money and food in the war, the soldiers would have enough to eat and drink, and they would have more strength to kill the enemy.
“Brother, you want to develop a new species?” Ding Yi was curious and guessed.
“Yes.” Zhang Ronghua did not hide anything.
“Since I’m sitting in this position, I have to do something for the people below!”
” However, it’s very difficult to improve the rice. The Ministry of Works has so many talents, but they’ve only managed to produce 300 catties of rice per mu.”
“How would we know if we don’t try?” Zhang Ronghua’s gaze was firm.
Ding Yi’s face was filled with anticipation. He could even develop the Flame Thunder Pearl and 197 items. No matter how difficult it was to develop rice, it might not be difficult for him.
Even if it was just a hundred catties of yield per mu, it was still a huge harvest for Great Xia!
“Brother, you can do it.”
“Go cultivate!” Zhang Ronghua said with a smile.
“No, I can’t! I want to accompany you and witness a miracle happen with my own eyes.”
Zhang Ronghua didn’t try to persuade him anymore. He took some rice seeds and wrapped them with his black yellow internal strength to analyze their composition. After a while, he put down the rice seeds and sat on the chair.
The heaven-defying talent circulation had already been analyzed. The vitality contained in the rice seeds was very little. Such rice seeds had very high requirements for the land. They had to be planted in good fields with plenty of water to survive. If the water was not enough, or if the fields were a little inferior, they would need irrigation channels to ensure that they could grow. If the water was not enough, or if there was a drought in the middle and later stages, the yield would be seriously affected.
It was difficult and simple.
This problem could be solved by solving the problem of the vitality of the rice seeds and making them stronger so that they could adapt to all fields. He thought of the cactus. This thing could survive in the desert. If he transplanted its tenacious vitality into the rice seeds, he could solve the problem of the survival of the rice seeds. By then, no matter what kind of field it was, it would be suitable for planting rice.
The problem of vitality had been solved, and the problem of production remained. The reproduction ability of weeds was not the strongest, but it was among the best. If they could transfer their reproduction ability into it, the problem could be solved.
With a clear goal, he built a model and a terrifying accumulation erupted.
