After Li Longji asked his question, the officials looked at each other but didn't step forward.
They weren't stupid. They knew that there was a trap waiting for them. If their ideas didn't work, wouldn't it make them look incompetent?
"Ministry of War." Li Longji looked at Su Yi.
The military commanders were under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War. The soldiers under the military commanders usually worked in the fields and didn't pay rent. When there was a war, they went out to fight.
Since there was a new military commander position, the Ministry of War naturally had to take the lead.
Su Yi took a deep breath and gave the assistant minister a look.
The assistant minister wanted to cry, but he had to admit that he was the one doing the hard work. Su Yi had only been the Minister of War for a short period of time and was still the Prime Minister.
He gritted his teeth and stood up, "Your Majesty, I think we should look for a lake and start farming."
"What should we plant?" Li Longji nodded and asked again.
"Rice." The assistant minister replied.
"Plant rice there?" Li Longji lowered his voice.
"No, not the current rice. It's a new type of rice. The one that Li Yi planted." The assistant minister realized that the situation wasn't good and changed his words.
"Plant a new type of rice?" Li Longji's voice was still very soft.
"No, plant … plant wheat, wheat." The assistant minister's forehead was sweating.
"Plant wheat?" Li Longji smiled.
"Plant barley. Yes, barley. Where can barley grow? I know. Barley, barley is good." The assistant minister finally thought of a crop.
Li Longji waved his hand and gestured for him to step back. He then looked at the Ministry of War's doctor.
The Ministry of War's doctor looked up at Li Longji and stepped forward, "Raise sheep."
"Raise sheep now? And then? "Li Longji nodded.
"Raise sheep after we occupy it, then … then … then bring back the sheepskin to sell." The doctor closed his eyes as he finished speaking.
"Alright, what about the Ministry of Revenue? In the end, it's the people's livelihood. Tell the Ministry of Revenue. "Li Longji looked at Bi Goo.
There was no need for Bi Goo to take a look. The assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue came out on his own. "Plant greenhouses. Li Yi has a way to plant greenhouses locally. Ask him for the location of the coal mine."
"We are asking you." Li Longji was so angry that he laughed.
"That's exactly what I'm thinking. I'm looking for Li Yi." The assistant minister said confidently.
"Step down. Good, at least you don't speak nonsense." Li Longji was no longer angry. The other party wasn't wrong. He was looking for Li Yi.
The Ministry of Revenue's doctor also stepped forward himself. "To make dried fish, use a net to catch it. Li Yi's newly made fishing net is easy to use. If there's a lot, use a ship to transport a batch.
Disembark at the shore where there is less fish and take the official road to deliver it to the local people. As long as there is a profit, you can operate it. "
"Good!" Li Longji nodded.
"Your Majesty, did Doctor Li come up with a good plan?" Bi Goo didn't want to say anything. Your Majesty is eating and sleeping. How could Xiao Yi not come up with a good idea?
"Yes!" Li Longji replied. The officials perked up. Wait, where exactly are they lacking? What ideas does Li Yi have?
"Plant canola. You can eat the leaves and extract oil. Oil, no matter where it is, is a good thing.
Plant broad beans. Soybeans can be grown locally, but the yield is too low. Broad beans are better and can be used as a staple food.
Greenhouses are not suitable for local use. There is coal, gold, silver, and copper mines. "
Li Longji introduced Li Yi's ideas. With Li Yi around, he wasn't worried about not being able to eat.
He was just sad. Why didn't the officials have any ideas? The fish shouldn't have been made into dried fish and sold.
"There is a mine?" Several people asked at the same time.
"After that, the fish will be made into fish floss. The floss will consume a lot of fish meat. The local fish is very good.
At the same time, the Li Family Zhuangzi will send a rotating pressure cooker. It can be used to boil water and make braised meat.
Highland barley rice is not good, but highland barley noodles are still good. You should know how to beat, remove the husk, and grind the noodles.
Cows and sheep must be raised, especially sheep, goats, and yaks. Their wool can be used to make felt, sweaters, and cashmere clothes.
In addition, you can plant medicinal herbs and teach the locals how to concoct medicinal herbs. You can transport the finished products to various places or Chang 'an. "
Li Longji listed out a bunch of useful methods. The officials also knew how to knit sweaters.
Everyone understood. How to operate it? Yes, it was actually quite simple. There was indeed fish floss, and the price was not low.
As for the pressure cooker, what was that?
Song Jing suddenly said: "Your Majesty, it is not suitable for the current situation."
The officials were stunned. Yes, it was so good, but what about the early stages?
"Therefore, in the early stages, you will need to hunt, gather herbs, and check the terrain.
The fishing net was sent out on a fast horse last night. The soldiers will eat fish first.
Fat fish are best eaten by frying. Once the oil comes out, add a bit of salt, and it can be a staple food for a short time. "
Li Longji said that some people did not eat in the morning and were now hungry.
"You may go and do your work." Li Longji said and turned to leave.
Everyone looked at each other and returned to their offices. They were relieved. As long as they occupied it, they could make money.
The commoners would only be willing to go if there was money to be made. Otherwise, more than 100,000 people would not be able to afford to keep relying on things sent in from outside.
"Your Majesty has changed." Su Yi returned to the Political Affairs Hall and muttered gloomily.
You have a method, but you don't take it out and insist on testing us.
If we had the ability, would Li Yi still have a foothold?
Otherwise, why would you go to the Li Family Zhuangzi? The empress and the little fellow were also there.
Wasn't it because no matter what trouble they encountered, Li Yi could solve it for them?!
"It's because our position is too high and we can't sink down. We have never considered how the commoners live." Bi Goo found the problem from himself.
Song Jing was another consideration. "It's precisely because we don't understand that we don't give out ideas blindly. We only care about building roads and irrigation. The commoners will think about it themselves.
As for Li Yi, he … compared to him, he knows more, so he gives more ideas and thinks of more ways.
His actions have to be worthy of his position. Doesn't he know what his position is? Whoever he says to get rid of, he will get rid of. "
Song Jing had other considerations. What's wrong with Li Yi giving ideas? You can even mobilize the Winged Knights.
If we want to deal with the county magistrates of the capital, we need to find a reason first and then tell His Majesty or find someone to impeach.
What about you? If you want to deal with them, it's just a matter of a sentence.
Sometimes you even ask us to cooperate with you. What did we say?
What right do you have? Isn't it because you can give the best solution to any problem at any time and place?
"That makes sense." Bi Goo reacted. Yes, Xiao Yi, you should do it.
"Let's go to his house for lunch. Call more people." Su Yi decided.
"Okay!" Bi Goo and Song Jing said tacitly.
… …
"Go and sell the honey we received earlier and make a profit." Li Family Zhuangzi. Li Yi still didn't know that someone was forming a group to eat for free.
He thought that the envoys from the Japanese Empire wanted to give 20,000 cubes of honey as a gift. It just so happened that Zhuangzi had some. He could sell it to them.
If he sold it to them for a high price, he could return it later and make a profit.
"Dongzhu, I have already made arrangements. Find someone else to help. It has nothing to do with us, Zhuangzi."
Song De was laughing like a chicken that ate a fox. He was the kind of chicken that gave a new year greetings to a weasel.
