Fang Yun calmly said, "Nothing much. From today onwards, the Agriculture Hall will be responsible for the food and drink of most of the people in Ning An County. However, what they eat and how much they eat will be decided by the Agriculture Hall. From there, we can observe what the entire population eats to make them stronger, smarter, and grow faster. "
Many of the officials' expressions changed. This was a drastic measure. This meant that most of the people in Ning An County did not need to buy any food! The so-called food price was no longer a problem in Ning An County. The Minister of the Left and his party were hitting empty air.
Fang Yun had completely bypassed the food price problem and directly let the people eat their fill. Furthermore, he was not giving it away for free. He was conducting agricultural research. Not only would he not be demoted, but he would also easily solve the food price problem. The people's livelihood and agriculture would both increase!
Shen Ming suppressed his anger and asked, "May I ask how long this research will last?"
Without waiting for Fang Yun to answer, the great scholar Xu Shi said, "It has not been confirmed yet. At least ten years, at most thirty years."
When Xu Shi said the first half of the sentence, Shen Ming and some of the officials let out a sigh of relief. However, when he said "ten years," they were all dumbfounded.
"Ten years?" Shen Ming exclaimed.
"You can do that?" Ao Huang was also stunned. He had thought of many countermeasures, but he never thought that Fang Yun would come up with such a plan!
This kind of research was bound to involve 70% or even 90% of the people in Ning An County. Now, it would take at least ten years. This meant that in the future, most of the people in Ning An County would not buy food. Ninety percent of the grain stores would close down!
Fang Yun's drastic measure not only solved the food price problem, but it also turned the tables and caused the Gyeongo clan's Qingyuan Grain Company to lose all of their capital!
In order to set up a trap for Fang Yun, the Qingyuan Grain Company used a lot of manpower and resources. More than half of the grain stores were purchased at a premium. The total investment was definitely in the tens of millions of taels of silver.
The Minister of the Left and the Zong family worked hard for two to three months. In the end, Fang Yun only spent a few hours to write a book.
Some of the officials even had a slight look of fear on their faces. He didn't understand how Fang Yun could come up with such a strange method, but it sounded very reasonable.
Only now did they understand why Fang Yun didn't care about anything these days. He didn't even answer Geng Ge's questions.
Fang Yun smiled and explained, "This research is not something that can be done overnight. We will start with pregnant women, babies, children, teenagers, young adults, middle-aged people, and all the way to old people, regardless of gender. Regardless of whether you have a writing slot or not, regardless of your occupation, you have to carefully collect data to determine which foods are more suitable for the human race, so it takes a long time. "
Shen Ren argued, "This method is like finding a needle in a haystack. What if there were no results? Wasting so much energy, you have let down the Saints of Heaven and Earth, and you have let down the billions of people of the human race! "
Transport Commissioner Geng Ge couldn't help but say, "Registrar Shen is right! If they were to carry out such a large-scale research based on a so-called preliminary study, it would be a waste of money and manpower! I will definitely report this to the Notre-Dame to thoroughly investigate this matter and find out who is guilty! "
Xu Shi suddenly snorted coldly, and the temperature of the entire meeting hall suddenly dropped by twenty degrees. The tea froze, and the breath turned into mist. Almost everyone's body trembled.
Geng Ge was in charge of the most important transportation in the north of Jingguo. Even in front of a Grand Scholar, he didn't change his expression, but he was frightened by Xu Shi's snort.
As a great scholar, Xu Shi was indeed very cultured, so he wouldn't argue with an ordinary Hanlin. However, Xu Shi had another identity. He was a descendant of the Half-saint family!
The Half-saint family placed great importance on etiquette, so their every word and action was incomparably well-behaved. However, once they became playboys, their methods were ruthless, and ordinary scholars wouldn't even think of it.
Geng Ge bent his back and said in a low voice, "I am also afraid that County Magistrate Fang's article is wrong."
Xu Shi sneered, "If there is a mistake in his article, is Old Man blind enough to not see it?"
"I didn't mean that …" Fine sweat appeared on Geng Ge's forehead. The great scholars of the School of Agriculture weren't bloodthirsty, but once they made a move, they would use all the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning. Their efficiency in slaughtering demons and barbarians was higher than many great scholars of the Military School.
On the other side, a Grand Scholar of the Agriculture Hall said, "Yesterday, I read Fang Xusheng's book and found that although it was called 'Preliminary Exploration', it actually vaguely revealed a new branch of the Agriculture Hall. In the words of his book, it is' Nutrition '. He used detailed and accurate examples to list the changes that occurred after the barbarians became humans because of the change in their diet. More importantly, although the domesticated barbarians and barbarians had some … um, 'degeneration' in some aspects, there was an obvious increase in intelligence. He also compared the children of herdsmen, farmers, and merchants, and found many examples related to diet. "
Another Hanlin from the Agriculture Hall said, "Fang Xusheng's actions are of great significance to the Agriculture Hall."
Most of the officials present didn't realize anything, but Geng Ge and a few other officials were even more flustered. They finally understood why the Agriculture Hall placed so much importance on this!
This so-called 'Nutrition' was obviously the Agriculture Hall snatching food from the mouth of the Medicine Hall!
Although there wasn't much conflict between the Agriculture Hall and the Medicine Hall, because of the complexity of food and medicine, there would always be some friction. But now that the Agriculture Hall had taken the lead and designated 'Nutrition' as a branch of the Agriculture Hall, the Agriculture Hall's Sacred Path would be stronger, and the Agriculture Hall's status in the human race would also increase accordingly. If that great scholar made a breakthrough, he would become the new Half-saint of the Agriculture Hall!
The Agriculture Hall was also considered powerful, but it was also very difficult. In addition, one had to become a Grand Scholar to defeat an enemy of the same level, so it was very difficult for them to grow. Therefore, there weren't many outstanding people. Moreover, other than Xu Xing, there wasn't a second person in the Agriculture Hall who could become a Half-saint.
Although Fang Yun's article was only a 'Preliminary Exploration', it increased the possibility of the Agriculture Hall's Grand Scholar becoming a Half-saint by a little!
Geng Ge suddenly understood why the Agriculture Hall sent out the Cloud Tower Projection.
Geng Ge was silent for a moment, then said, "Fang Xusheng is an outstanding talent of the Agriculture Hall. His contributions to the country and benefits the human race, this official admires him."
The officials of the Left Minister's party quickly turned to look at Geng Ge, puzzled. This sentence was Geng Ge's conclusion on behalf of the Left Minister. The matter of the grain disaster would end here, and they would no longer make things difficult for Fang Yun in the Agriculture Hall!
Shen Ming couldn't understand, but the Grand Scholar constable Lu Hong and the county magistrate had long understood.
Making things difficult for Fang Yun was obstructing the Agriculture Hall's Sacred Path! Obstructing the Agriculture Hall's Sacred Path was forcing the entire Agriculture Hall to become enemies with the Zongsheng Clan!
Therefore, Geng Ge had to decisively end all dangerous factors and prevent the fire of the Agriculture Hall from spreading to the Zongsheng Clan. Otherwise, Mount Liu would be the first to kill him as an apology.
Geng Ge felt a chill run down his spine. He glanced at Fang Yun from the corner of his eyes, thinking that it was fortunate that he followed along. If that idiot Shen Ren was in charge, he would have already offended the Agriculture Hall. Fang Yun's use of a borrowed knife to kill people was too ruthless. Solving the problem of the grain price was one, attacking the Qingyuan Grain Exchange was another, and driving a wedge between the Agriculture Hall and the Zongsheng Clan was the third.
The Left Minister's party wanted to kill three birds with one stone in the Agriculture Hall, the People's Livelihood Hall, and the Medical Hall. However, Fang Yun's counterattack was even more ruthless, killing three birds with one stone!
Fang Yun had a faint smile on his face. He picked up the teacup, poured the ice into his mouth and crushed it, making a crunching sound.
The officials of the Left Minister's party felt their bodies ache, as if Fang Yun was chewing on their bones.
