Ming Zhiyan’s words were like a stone that caused a thousand ripples. They were so shocked that they had forgotten that this was the county office. The county magistrate, who was the county’srgest official, was sitting on the stage. They were all discussing in the meeting hall. “What! How can there be such a high-yield crop!”
“It can’t be a lie!”
The person who said this did not realize how loud his voice was. Moreover, the county magistrate was still listening up there. However, no one noticed this. They were all immersed in the shock brought by Ming Zhiyan’s words.
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! I’ve lived for fifty years and I’ve never heard of such a crop!”
“What if it’s true? Won’t that be the fortune of our Shifeng County?”
Vige Chief Jian stood at the side and looked at their expressions with pride. Haha! This was really too good!
He had to take a good look. When he went back, he had to exin it to the vigers.
Someone who knew the vige chief hurriedly asked, “Old Jian, is this true?! Does your vige really have an acre of… thousand, thousand, thousand Jin of grain?!”
The person who spoke felt as if the word ‘thousand’ was burning his mouth. He repeated it a few times, and in the end, his voice was broken.
Vige Chief Jian pursed his lips tightly and nodded in a reserved manner.
At this moment, someone noticed this side.
“You are the vige chief of the Jian Family Vige?”
“Yes!” Vige Chief Jian pretended to be nonchnt as he acknowledged. However, the curve of his lips could not be lowered no matter how hard he tried. It was almost reaching his ears.
These words could be said to have attracted everyone’s attention to Vige
Chief Jian. He was quickly surrounded by more than a hundred vige chiefs.
“Vige Chief Jian, quickly tell me if the matter of the high yield of grain is true! Is there really such a high yield of grain per acre? ”
Vige Chief Jian shouted, “Of course it’s true! If you don’t believe me, Go and take a look tomorrow and you’ll know! I’m not lying!”
His tone was filled with unconceble pride. This was the first time he was being watched by so many people, and he could not help but cry. It was all thanks to Sister Qingqing! If it were not for her, their vige would still be starving! How could such good fortune be seen by so many people?
Everyone thought about it, and it made sense. Whether it was true or not, they would be able to see it tomorrow. For a moment, they were much quieter, but their hearts were still restless.
Ming Zhiyan saw that they were much calmer, so he coughed heavily and said,
“Silence! Everyone, return to your seats!”
When everyone was called out, their minds calmed down slightly, and their rationality returned.
A few vige chiefs who had been doubting just now finally realized what they had just said, and their faces instantly paled. Lord Ming would not want to settle scorester, right?
Ming Zhiyan ignored their expressions. He said, “The Jian Family Vige’s Jian Qingqing discovered the high yield of grain and has already nted all of it in the Jian Family Vige. After the summer harvest, inform each household that they cane to the county office to receive the grain seeds free of charge based on their household registration. After nting, in addition to paying taxes, they will also have to pay an additional 20 percent of the grain back to the county office. There are other things that I will tell you when the timees. For now, that’s all for now.”
Ming Zhiyan’s words contained too much information.
First of all, they were all too familiar with Jian Qingqing! That was the girl who was said to have invented fine salt a few months ago!
For a moment, everyone’s thoughts were exactly the same as those of the people from the Jian Family Vige.
That was that this Miss Jian must be the daughter of God!
Otherwise, how could she be so amazing?! She was the one who discovered that fine salt could be made and that high-yielding grain could be produced!
Only God was afraid that his daughter would starve on Earth, so he would give her such amazing grain!
