Chapter 1 Agricultural and Commercial System
In a superior room of Tongfu Inn in Changzhou Prefecture, Mobei, the candles were extinguished at some point, and the room was dark, with only a small figure vaguely visible.

With a thunderous sound, the little man struggled for a moment and murmured: "Mother Concubine."

Half asleep and half awake, he finally remembered where he was now.

According to the ancestral teachings of the Sang royal family, the new emperor will succeed, and the remaining adult princes must go to the fief immediately after attending the enthronement ceremony.

He had not been favored since he was a child and was used to being looked down upon in the palace. He originally thought that since the emperor's brother succeeded him, he would be the only underage prince in the palace. A little care from the emperor's brother would make his life easier, but who could You know, after the enthronement ceremony, the imperial edict came down that he was going to his fiefdom, Mobei.

In addition to the nanny and the two maids, the accompanying chief minister, guards, and doctors were all gifts from the imperial brother. He got on the carriage to Mobei in a daze, taking with him a few rewards...

After a flash of lightning, a strange sizzling sound suddenly sounded in his ears, which made his head split. After a while, a very strange voice sounded: "The agricultural and commercial system is being connected..."

He said silently: "Who is speaking?"

"The connection is successful, I wish you a happy use."

The strange sound disappeared along with the sizzling sound, and then two vague figures suddenly appeared in front of him. He was so shocked that he hugged the quilt tightly and shouted: "Xie Changshi, Xie Changshi!"

Naturally, Xie Changshi did not appear, and the figures of the two people became increasingly clear.

One person was wearing a purple robe, and as he moved, gold threads could be seen faintly flashing through the robe. He was holding a folding fan in his hand, and he was looking at himself with a smile. His chubby appearance made him look like the steward of the imperial kitchen.

When he thought of the imperial dining room, Gu Yuzhi subconsciously glanced at his flat belly, feeling a little aggrieved. He could no longer secretly eat the delicacies from the imperial dining room...

Just when Gu Yuzhi was silent, the woman beside him waved her hand in front of him in surprise: "The young prince is awake?" She clicked her tongue twice, and leaned forward to look at him carefully, "This is the first time I have seen him. To the living prince!"

Seeing the dull look on the young prince's face, the woman covered her mouth and smiled: "Do you still want to ask me, is it possible that I have seen the dead prince?" Her index finger kept wagging, "Of course I have not!"

As she said this, she was about to step forward and pinch his face, but the young prince ducked back and reprimanded her in a sweet voice: "Be presumptuous!"

The young prince Gu Yuzhi was a little scared in his heart. He didn't understand why these two people appeared in the room, and he didn't understand why there was no one guarding outside his room.

The woman took a step forward, and he noticed that she was wearing strange clothes, her hair was only on her shoulders, and there were two rings hanging on her face...

He had never heard his mother-in-law mention any customs that made women dress up like this.

Gu Yuzhi's hands hiding under the quilt squeezed each other tightly, and he said seriously with a small face: "Who are you and why are you here?"

Although he seemed to be in exile, the guards accompanying him were very skilled in martial arts, so they shouldn't have failed to notice that these two were talented.

The man holding the folding fan bowed to Gu Yuzhi in a decent manner: "Your Highness, the villain's name is Wen Xiuzhu. He was a famous imperial merchant in the previous dynasty during his lifetime. Therefore, he belongs to the business system in the agricultural and commercial system. Your Highness can call me Xiao." Shopkeeper of Humanities.”

Before death...

before death?

Gu Yuzhi's pupils dilated slightly. Was he a ghost?

Gu Yuzhi swallowed nervously, pretending to be calm and looked at the female ghost next to him: "What about you? What is your identity?" The woman took two steps back and bowed to Gu Yuzhi: "My name is Shu Xiaohan. In the agricultural system of the agricultural and commercial system, I was a doctor of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences during my lifetime. The young prince can just call me Teacher Shu." While Gu Yuzhi was dazed, she reached forward and wanted to pinch Gu Yuzhi's face, but she didn't want to go through Gu Yuzhi's body with her hands. Pass.

She suddenly remembered that she was now an ideological person and took back her hand with regret.

Gu Yuzhi breathed a sigh of relief because of Shu Xiaohan's actions.

These two ghosts can't touch themselves, does that mean they can't really hurt themselves?
His clenched hands relaxed slightly: "Why are you here? Where are my guards?"

Shu Xiaohan had been paying attention to Gu Yuzhi and naturally did not miss the change in his expression. She smiled and explained: "Young prince, don't be afraid. Wen Xiuzhu and I are conscious now..." She paused, "We are in the form of souls. We exist in your brain... …”

She pointed at the brain: "It is also the head, so this scene is illusory and not really in the inn."

head?

Gu Yuzhi subconsciously touched his head.

He wanted to ask more details, but then he heard Wen Xiuzhu sarcastically say: "Miss Shu..., even if the prince is young, when facing the prince, you should call yourself a slave, and the prince's face is not something you and I can do as we please. Touching.”

Shu Xiaohan curled her lips and rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, these ancients are so pedantic, they are already dead, but they are still slaves and villains...

When Gu Yuzhi heard this, he turned his attention to Wen Xiuzhu and said, "I heard you talking about the agricultural and commercial system before. What is that?"

"Your Highness, as the name suggests, the agricultural and commercial system is that Xiaohe and Miss Shu will assist you in building your fiefdom through agriculture and commerce." Speaking of what he was good at, Wen Xiuzhu couldn't help but straighten his back, "Vigorously developing commerce will give Your fief brings a steady stream of wealth. Although merchants have the lowest status among scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, the development of all dynasties cannot be separated from the support of merchants."

Gu Yuzhi's little head was spinning little by little as he listened, and he forgot about fear for a moment.

Although he is young, he also knows that the previous emperor was cruel. Taizu's uprising was supported by local wealthy businessmen. As well as last year's floods in Jiangnan, businessmen took the lead in donating money, which quickly stabilized the situation in Jiangnan...

"The same goes for agricultural development." Shu Xiaohan spoke up at the right time. "Although agriculture does not pay as much tax as commerce, agriculture is the foundation of national development. No matter what happens, as long as you have food in your hands, you will not panic."

She smiled and said: "I don't say that I understand every agricultural product [-]%, but I will do my best to help you increase the food production in the fiefdom, dig out as many agricultural products as possible, and produce more agricultural and sideline products."

Wen Xiuzhu smiled contemptuously: "You can buy food with money, but you can't do business with money!"

Shu Xiaohan calmly retorted: "To focus on commerce and not agriculture is to put the cart before the horse..."

The two actually got into an argument.

Gu Yuzhi didn't stop, and silently repeated what the two said in his mind. He was half-convinced that the two were here to help him, and said suspiciously: "Then will you always stay in my head like this?"

Wen Xiuzhu put away his ferocious face and said respectfully: "When you need us, just call our names. When you don't need us, just ask us to step aside."

Gu Yuzhi nodded silently, said quickly and left. Seeing that Wen and Shu disappeared in an instant, he breathed a small sigh of relief.

Only then did Gu Yuzhi realize that something was wrong before him. He cautiously opened his eyes and saw that it was dawn...
