Done! Your Majesty is going to prostitute me for free!

Chapter 64

Rong Shenghuang, although he is a member of the King of Hanjiang, has never seen the true face of this mysterious figure, but he has already been deeply involved in this game of power.

Lin Xiaofeng saw this, and couldn't help but feel a deep resonance and sympathy in his heart.

In this endless exploration, Lin Xiaofeng also began to re-examine his relationship with the King of Hanjiang.

He knew that if he wanted to gain a foothold in the prosperous place of Kyoto, he would inevitably have to interact with this powerful force, and he might even need to rely on the power of King Hanjiang to realize his ambitions.

However, he also knows that while dancing with wolves, he must always be vigilant to avoid getting stuck in the quagmire and unable to extricate himself.

Every long conversation with Rong Shenghuang made Lin Xiaofeng more deeply aware of Rong Shenghuang's inner contradictions and bitterness.

Although he is behind bars, he still cherishes the yearning for freedom, eager to find a way out, get rid of these constraints, and stay away from the place of right and wrong.

In this regard, Lin Xiaofeng was full of compassion and also felt deeply helpless, because he understood that he might not be able to stay out of the matter, and could only find his own way of survival in this whirlpool of power.

Finally, in a late-night conversation, Rong Shenghuang revealed to Lin Xiaofeng his future plans - to become a monk.

He hopes to take this opportunity to get rid of the troubles and entanglements of the past and find inner peace and tranquility.

After hearing this, Lin Xiaofeng was silent for a long time and then nodded slightly to express his understanding and support.

··················································

In the depths of that solemn court, a major debate related to the national economy and people's livelihood is burning, like a hot furnace, refining the wisdom and determination of the governors.

The topic focused on the Yangtze River, the granary that nourishes southern Xinjiang and carries thousands of lives. However, due to frequent floods, its rice worth thousands of dollars has sunk into mud. This year's grain output is about to be affected, and the entire empire is worried. A layer of haze.

Emperor Jingjiang sat on the dragon chair with his eyes lowered, staring at the quarreling and arguing ministers below, with endless worries surging in his heart.

Among all the noise, only Lin Xiaofeng was like a lonely boat breaking through the waves, his expression was calm and composed, his eyes were as deep as the stars in the night sky, exuding an otherworldly light of confidence.

Recently, Lin Xiaofeng's life seems to be going smoothly, he is in a happy mood, and he handles government affairs with ease. Every step is steady and powerful, and he has never encountered any bumps.

On the other side, Li Dexian's performance is also eye-catching.

As the leader of the environmental protection team, he leads thousands of elite soldiers under his command, walking through the streets and alleys, checking for omissions like a hound searching for missing bones and flesh. Even complicated and trivial matters such as scheduling and scheduling are done personally. A well-prepared meal.

It should be noted that the current environmental protection team has expanded to nearly 4,000 people, and its business reach has not only penetrated deep into the hinterland of North Langfang, but also extended to more than a dozen surrounding bustling cities. The weight of this responsibility and the arduous work are enough to overwhelm ordinary people.

However, with his excellent organizational skills and coordination skills, Li Dexian managed to organize this complex matter in an orderly manner, just like the notes on a musical score, each belonging to its place and coexisting harmoniously.

Earlier, Li Dexian had come up with the idea of ​​using the power of the Military and Horse Division to introduce professional talents to overcome difficulties, but unexpectedly, he was categorically rejected by Lin Xiaofeng.

In Lin Xiaofeng's philosophy, a true leader should have the ability to solve problems independently, should not rely too much on others, and should not easily show weakness and ask for help in the face of difficulties.

Facing Lin Xiaofeng's determined attitude, although Li Dexian felt a little bitter in his heart, he did not shrink back, but gritted his teeth and moved forward bravely.

Fortunately, adversity did not defeat him. On the contrary, he relied on his perseverance and excellent leadership skills to stabilize his position in the turbulent times and gradually turn things around.

At the same time, Lin Xiaofeng was also silently supporting Li Dexian behind the scenes, quietly helping the environmental protection team advance various tasks.

In the bustling Bonfire Square, the lottery activities that were originally held sparsely were adjusted to once a week. People's enthusiasm for participation was high, and the speed of learning and progress was gratifying.

Nowadays, most people are familiar with writing numbers from one to nine, and can even explain the rules of numbers from ten to one hundred.

After all, facing this game that costs nothing but brings the possibility of wealth, who can resist its temptation?

Lin Xiaofeng stood in front of the window lattice, his eyes as deep as the tunnel through time and space, extending towards the distant horizon.

Months of arduous efforts have quietly condensed into a force in his hands, which is the people's increasingly improving hygiene habits.

At this moment, he decided to put this battle aside for the time being and turn around to devote himself to the more important torrent.

At this moment, a letter from Yangqu County came into his eyes, like a wisp of breeze blowing through the quiet lake of his heart.

The letter carried the first batch of planted sweet potato samples. He carefully picked up one and examined it carefully.

Although this sweet potato was not huge in size, it was slightly different from the plump and round image in his memory. When he first tasted it, the taste seemed a little lacking.

"Perhaps the variety is too old." Lin Xiaofeng whispered in his heart. However, when the string of numbers - a thousand catties per mu - appeared on the paper, he couldn't help but slightly relax his brows, and his heart dropped to the ground.

The issue of sweet potato yield is like a heavy cornerstone, related to people's livelihood, and cannot be missed.

Although Lin Xiaofeng has set off a storm of business innovation in Yangqu County, those innovative business models can only benefit a few people.

He knows very well that real welfare should benefit all living beings, so that every citizen can have hope of food and clothing.

At this moment, sweet potatoes, with their abundant output, have brought a new dawn to the pig industry and even the entire rural economy.

He has repeatedly weighed whether Yangqu County's successful pig-raising experience should be extended to other areas, but the practical difficulties stopped him.

The people are already short of food. How can there be any extra rations to feed livestock? However, the arrival of sweet potatoes seems to have broken an invisible barrier, and industries such as pig and chicken raising are expected to gain new life.

Lin Xiaofeng deeply understands that food is the foundation of all prosperity.

Although the poor people at the bottom live in poverty, they still have fresh lives, full of passion and emotion.

They have devoted their whole life to the loess land. If they invest their limited manpower in industry and commerce, it will be tantamount to pushing them to the edge of the cliff of survival.

In Yangqu County, he was still able to maintain this delicate balance because the population was sparse and easy to manage.

However, the sweet potato harvest now makes it impossible for him to remain silent.

He couldn't bear to see the poor struggling in hunger, and that was the moral bottom line he adhered to.

Above the court, the debate became more and more intense, which provided Lin Xiaofeng with an excellent opportunity to promote sweet potatoes.

Although the food crisis in the South is imminent, sweet potatoes cannot save this year's famine, but they can undoubtedly sow the seeds of hope for the coming year.

Large-scale promotion will take time, but at least some people can benefit from this benefit in advance.

However, he also clearly realized that those landowners and businessmen with huge wealth would never give up their vested interests easily.

They may take this opportunity to hoard them and wait to sell them at a high price.

This is a cruel law of the real world, but he must do his best to find more support.

Lin Xiaofeng took a deep breath, his eyes shining with perseverance.

He knows that the road ahead is full of thorns, but he is willing to travel across thousands of rivers and mountains and make all efforts for the sake of the people at the bottom.

No matter what, he will never give up this opportunity to change the destiny of the world, even if it is just a small change brought about by a sweet potato.

In the atmosphere of heated debate in the court, Lin Xiaofeng was like a unique silhouette, breaking through the shackles of the crowd and striding forward.

His figure was like a towering mountain, solid and powerful, and his loud and resolute words were like the impact of a bell, trembling in the empty hall: "Your Majesty, I have an important matter that needs to be announced urgently."

Emperor Jingjiang's eyes were locked deeply on Lin Xiaofeng. On the surface, he was calm, but deep in his heart, he was filled with endless curiosity and expectation.

Lin Xiaofeng, this courtier who can always bring surprises, every time he appears, seems to be carrying a new force, injecting new vitality and hope into this ancient country.

"Your Majesty, a strange crop called Shengshi potato has been discovered in Yangqu County."

Lin Xiaofeng's tone was filled with incomparable conviction, "The yield of this product is amazing, and its growth rate is so fast that it is rare in the world. It can be harvested in just one to two months. What's even more rare is that both stems, leaves and fruits can be harvested. Edible. What is particularly worth mentioning is that the golden potato can withstand drought and barrenness, and can grow tenaciously no matter how bad the land is."

After his words settled, the entire court fell into a brief silence, and then, like ripples on the surface of a lake caused by pebbles, the voices of discussion started one after another.

Bai Yongyuan couldn't hold back his inner excitement. He stood up and his voice was slightly trembling: "Lin Xiaofeng, what you said is absolutely true? This matter is related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and we cannot take it lightly!"

A sharp light flashed in Emperor Jingjiang's eyes. His deep gaze was firmly locked on Lin Xiaofeng, and he spoke slowly: "Lin Aiqing, where is this crop now? Can you present it immediately so that I can join all the ministers?" Appreciation?"

Lin Xiaofeng smiled slightly, and there was a calmness hidden in that smile. He shook his head gently: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Shengshishu has not come with me at this moment."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the court instantly became tense. Emperor Jingjiang's eyes turned cold and he asked in a deep voice: "If it's not with you, then where is it?"

"Your Majesty, the prosperous potatoes are safely rooted in the soil of Yangqu County."

Lin Xiaofeng's voice was still as steady as before, "Although I failed to bring it, everything I said is true and there is no falsehood. His Royal Highness also visited Yangqu County to witness the splendor of Shengshishu, and was impressed by its growth speed and yield. The height is shocking.”

At this time, Li Dexian also recovered from the shock, and he quickly seconded: "Father, what Master Lin said is absolutely true. I have indeed witnessed the magic of Shengshishu in Yangqu County, and its rapid growth. The yield is so abundant that it’s truly jaw-dropping.”

In the center of attention, Lin Xiaofeng's figure was once again pushed to the center of the stage. His presence was like a tranquil lake, calm and calm, but what flowed between his brows and eyes was an emotional foundation as firm as iron and as confident as peaks.

He was not flustered by the attention of the crowd, but instead showed more calmness. It was as if time had stopped as he spoke slowly. Each word was like a hammer in the hands of a blacksmith, hitting the hard anvil hard, echoing throughout the hall. : "Your Majesty! I am brave enough to speak out. Tomorrow happens to be the time for me to take a rest. Can you personally lead the ministers to Yangqu to witness the birth of the miraculous thing that changes the world?"

After the momentary whirlpool of surprise, Emperor Jingjiang's expression quickly returned to solemnity, as if he stood as calm as a mountain after dark clouds covered the scorching sun.

He stared at Lin Xiaofeng and said sincerely: "Lin Qing, your proposal is not a child's play. This matter is of great importance. If I lead the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty to Yangqu, it will end up being an empty joy. At that time, not only our dynasty will be harmed." His face is the cornerstone of the dignity of the entire court."

Lin Xiaofeng's face was like a rock that had been tempered by wind and rain, revealing an unshakable tenacity. Emperor Jingjiang looked at him, and although he was filled with doubts, he was deeply moved by his magnanimous and fearless spirit.

However, the fortress of reason and experience was quietly built in his heart, constantly reminding him - how can there be a crop with a yield of up to 800 kilograms per mu in this world? You know, the average crop yield per mu across the country is only about 350 kilograms, which has suddenly doubled. Isn’t this challenging the natural laws of heaven and earth?

"I hereby swear an oath to guarantee the authenticity of this matter with my head!" Lin Xiaofeng's words were like the collision of gold and stone, sonorous and powerful, going straight into people's hearts, causing the entire hall to fall into shocked silence.

Even so, some people still sneered at this, and the handful of skeptical ministers had sarcastic sneers on their lips, viewing Lin Xiaofeng's move as flattery, and speculated that he might have secretly set up a trap to deceive the emperor and steal his name from the world.

After weighing the matter again and again, Emperor Jingjiang finally made a decision: "In this case, I will go to Yangqu in person tomorrow to find out what's going on. I wonder which member of the Qing family is willing to accompany me on this trip?"

After hearing this, the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty were eager to give it a try, and each had their own thoughts. Regardless of whether this matter was true or false, it would be an unprecedented historical moment.

If what Lin Xiaofeng said is true, the future of the Jingjiang Dynasty will be as vast as the stars and the sea; if it is a lie, this palace drama will be enough to become a topic they enjoy talking about in their spare time.

No matter what, no one wants to miss the opportunity to participate in such a grand event.

Lin Xiaofeng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief deep in his heart when he heard Emperor Jingjiang agreed.

Inviting Emperor Jingjiang to Yangqu in person was actually a key step in his planning. The mysterious sweet potato was about to appear in front of the world with its otherworldly appearance, which would surely cause shock after wave until it became famous all over the world.

In order to have the greatest influence or even shock on the grain price trend in the next few months, he even deliberately lowered the actual output by several hundred kilograms.

Fortunately, Emperor Jingjiang has promised to come in person.

As early as two days ago, Lin Xiaofeng had sent a letter to Yangqu County, ordering them to make adequate preparations in advance.

At this moment, he prayed silently in his heart, hoping that the officials of Yangqu County could live up to their trust and arrange all matters without leakage, just to welcome the upcoming historic moment and jointly perform a drama that could turn the world around.

······························································································ 

At dawn, Zhaohui quietly retreated to the towering peak of the Forbidden City. At this time, Lin Xiaofeng did not notice Li Dexian's anxious call. He was like an arrow ready to go, speeding straight towards the Qingyi Palace. And go.

Recently, deep inside the palace, a major innovation related to women's hygiene - sanitary napkins, was like a silent falling comet. Although it touched the ground, it failed to stir up any waves. Instead, it attracted waves of embarrassing criticism. It is said that This incident even caused Princess Li Hanmiao to suffer several cynicisms.

Although Lin Xiaofeng felt helpless about this, the heavy government affairs came like a tidal wave, leaving him no time to take care of such trivial matters.

At this moment, an excellent opportunity appeared. He intended to use this trend to persuade the princess to go to Yangqu County in person, visit the women's medical center there, and use vivid examples to educate and promote the popularization of new knowledge.

Princess Li Hanmiao is young and has an innocent personality. If she is held back by just a few rumors, how can this sanitary napkin, which is related to the health of thousands of women, be carried forward within the strict palace walls?

Is it really necessary to expect Li Dexian to bear the responsibility alone and promote sanitary napkins under the eyes of the emperor? I'm afraid that once this move touches Emperor Jingjiang's bottom line and Long Yan is furious, the consequences will be unpredictable.

Lin Xiaofeng's steps were like walking on a hot wheel, and he was walking as fast as flying. Behind him was Li Dexian, who was screaming as hard as he could, but he was exhausted from the hard work in the past few days. Even though he was once strong, he was unable to catch up at this moment.

By the time Lin Xiaofeng arrived in front of Qingyi Palace, he was already sitting side by side with Princess Li Hanmiao, while Li Dexian, who was out of breath, could only stop at the side, his face full of indignation and helplessness.

Lin Xiaofeng had a friendly smile on her face, and there was a hint of warmth in her words: "Your Highness, long time no see, are you in good health lately?"

When Li Hanmiao heard this, a peach blossom-like blush suddenly appeared on her cheeks, and her eyes shone with shyness: "Thanks to Mr. Lin's concern, I have been doing well recently, but it is quite difficult to advance the sanitary napkin matter. I’m sorry for everyone’s expectations.”

Lin Xiaofeng secretly admired the frankness and frankness of this princess in her words and deeds, which was in sharp contrast to Li Dexian's sleek and sophistication.

He said slowly: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has done a great job, how can the things that benefit all people be smooth sailing? I am willing to accompany you unswervingly and face the challenges together."

"Princess, there is no need to be overly anxious. Everything in this world has its time, and it is better to go too far than too late. Fortunately, tomorrow the holy driver will visit Yangqu County, where the popularization of sanitary napkins has been very effective. Your Highness can go with him to inspect the successful experience there."

Lin Xiaofeng further explained, "Furthermore, Your Highness can also take this opportunity to visit the scenery of Yangqu and relax. The mansion in Chen's family is spacious and empty. If the princess feels tired, she can rest there at any time, and everything will naturally be arranged properly. "Li Hanmiao couldn't help but bow her head shyly after listening to Lin Xiaofeng's words, and nodded softly, her voice so weak that it was almost hard to hear.

When Lin Xiaofeng saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel a smile in his heart - under the shy blush, the princess looked even more gentle, charming and pitiful.

Li Dexian, who was beside him, was feeling like the depression before a flash flood, approaching the critical point of collapse. His pupils burned with a blazing red light, as if stars were shattering and exploding in them, and an almost destructive aura emerged from his body. Spew out.

He raised his head suddenly, and a deafening shout burst out from his throat: "Old Lin! How can the bottom line of human beings sink to such a shameless level!"

Faced with this fierce accusation, Lin Xiaofeng stood up resolutely, his thick eyebrows twisted into a rope, showing a tough and tenacious temperament, and his words were full of determination: "Brother, your words are too fierce! Mr. Lin, that person who worked day and night to ensure that people all over the world could have food and worry-free food, and even developed sanitary products for women all over the world with originality, the heavy responsibilities he shouldered and the hardships he went through are beyond what you and I can easily guess. ? Your merciless accusation is really unfair!"

Before Lin Xiaofeng could finish her words, Li Hanmiao had already frowned, and her delicate face, as if carved out of wood, was full of reproach and dissatisfaction with her brother.

Her eyes were as cold as ice, like the North Star piercing Li Dexian, making the latter feel as if he had been struck by thunder from the sky. His whole body froze there instantly, and his face was as pale as a piece of rice paper that had never been inked.

Seeing this scene, Lin Xiaofeng not only did not panic at all, but responded in a humble and dignified manner: "The princess is so complimentary, I am just doing my best."

His voice contained deep compassion and reverence, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also been working day and night for the suffering of the people these days. Every time I see that kind of hardship, my heart feels like a knife."

After listening to Lin Xiaofeng's words, Li Hanmiao couldn't help but cast a look of deep admiration at him. When he looked at Li Dexian again, there was a trace of unconcealable disdain in his eyes.

She sighed secretly in her heart: "We are all mortals in this world, why are there such huge differences in behavior?"

After Li Dexian was speechless at first, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face. However, when he felt Li Hanmiao's sharp sword-like eyes, the shame and anger in his heart instantly turned into a violent storm, and he roared: "Then You might as well just move into his house!" These words were like a huge stone being thrown into the tranquil lake, causing ripples in layers and breaking the original calm.

When Li Hanmiao heard this, tears welled up in her eyes, and finally fell down her cheeks like broken pearls. She choked and left, filled with anger.

"Brother, how can you say such hurtful words? It's so heartbreaking!"

Lin Xiaofeng looked at her back, smiled awkwardly, and shouted loudly: "Princess, please remember to come back tomorrow. I am here to welcome you."

Afterwards, Lin Xiaofeng turned to face Li Dexian, and although his tone was calm, he was extremely firm: "Your Highness, then I will leave first and go back to make some preparations. We will set off together tomorrow."

Before he finished speaking, his figure cut through the night sky like a bolt of lightning and sped away, leaving only Li Dexian chasing anxiously on the spot, still cursing vaguely in his mouth, drowned in the night.

·············································

In the dark room deep in the Yangqu County Government Office, Wang Yingchao, the calm county magistrate, held a thin letter in his hand. The letter seemed to bear a thousand pounds in his rough hands.

His eyes were like lights on a winter night. Although they were weak, they revealed a firmness.

In front of him, twenty-five figures stood like sculptures, their eyes full of expectations and curiosity about the future.

Wang Yingchao took a deep breath, and his voice echoed in the empty room: "Everyone, there is a letter from the master. There is an important task that we need to complete." His eyes swept across everyone's face. , as if to see through their hearts.

"You are all the elites of Yangqu County. Some are proficient in arithmetic and some are good at business. You are all people trusted by the master. This mission is no small matter. It is not only related to the future of Yangqu County, but also to each of us. Destiny." He paused, letting the words settle in the air, letting everyone feel his determination.

"The master said that this mission is all voluntary. Those who are willing to go can stay; those who are unwilling to go can leave. However, I want to tell you that when you return from this mission, each person will have one hundred taels of silver. Rewards. Moreover, the county government will be responsible for all your family’s expenses at the medical clinic. Even your children’s school fees will be fully covered by the county.”

As his words fell, a cold wind seemed to blow through the room.

However, the twenty-five figures still stood upright, their eyes full of firmness and determination, and no one chose to leave.

A hint of appreciation flashed in Wang Yingchao's eyes, and he continued: "Okay! Since everyone is willing to participate, I will tell everyone the master's instructions."

His voice became more determined, "Twenty-five of you will go to the south with one hundred thousand taels of silver to provide disaster relief. The main target is the Yangtze River Prefecture. We will act flexibly according to the fluctuations in food prices. A year later, we will meet again here. "

His eyes were like a torch, sweeping over everyone: "This mission is not for profit, but it cannot be a loss. Take out one hundred thousand taels of silver, and one year later, the one hundred thousand taels of silver must be brought back intact!" Do you understand everything?"

Suddenly, a person raised his hand and asked: "Have you mentioned a specific action plan? Do we need to suppress food prices?"

Wang Yingchao shook his head slightly: "The master didn't say it clearly. However, he asked you to bring a boatload of sweet potatoes, spread the news in the market when necessary, and choose the right time to take action. The rest can only be explored by ourselves."

He paused again, then took out a map from his sleeve: "In addition, the master also sent back a map of the south. Take it with you when you set off. This will be a guide for our actions."

He handed the map to everyone, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the map, as if they saw hope for the future.

"Okay, that's it. Prepare as soon as possible after you go back, pay attention to safety, and write back if you have any questions. We will meet here again in a year."

As his words fell, the twenty-five figures nodded in agreement, with firm and decisive looks on their faces.

They know that this task is arduous and important, but they also firmly believe that they can live up to their trust and complete the task.

Wang Yingchao stood in the lobby of the county government office, his eyes burning as he scanned the small officials in shabby official uniforms in front of him.

His expression was solemn and mysterious, as if he was shouldering some important mission.

The departure of twenty-five people made the atmosphere here become more and more depressing, but he didn't care and just waited quietly for the next task.

"There is something I need you to do quickly." He spoke slowly, his voice low and powerful, as if every word contained infinite power.

The clerks raised their heads one after another, focusing on him.

They knew that whenever Wang Yingchao spoke in this tone, it meant something important had happened.

"I will personally accompany His Majesty to inspect Yangqu County." He continued, "What an honor this is. Our county government has not had such a good thing for many years."

The clerks looked at each other and marveled secretly.

They knew that this inspection was of great importance, not only related to the honor of the county government, but also related to their own future.

"So, we have to make good preparations." Wang Yingchao continued, "First team, you have to quickly find some good-looking children. When His Majesty arrives, come out of the city to greet him. The master has already personally explained the specific details. It’s all on this piece of paper.”

As he spoke, he took out a piece of letter paper from his sleeve and handed it to the captain of the first team.

The captain took the paper with trembling hands, an expression of disbelief on his face.

He knew that this important task was no joke, and if something went wrong, the consequences would be disastrous.

"The second team and everyone in the county government are not allowed to mention the existence of various departments in the county." Wang Yingchao continued, "We are a private department, and your Majesty must keep your eyes and ears tightly closed. If anyone leaks the news, Don’t blame me for being rude.”

The clerks nodded one after another to express their understanding. They know that this is the top secret of the county government and must not be leaked to anyone.

"The third team is also the most important point." Wang Yingchao's tone suddenly became serious, "From now on, all new glass products in Yangqu County must disappear from the market. Mirrors in inns, brothels and other places , all replaced by the old mottled glass mirrors.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the clerks exploded.

They knew that this was no joke. New glass products were selling like hotcakes on the market. How could they all disappear overnight?

"Also, glass products in people's homes must be properly stored and cannot be exposed to the outside."

Wang Yingchao continued, "Buildings with glass windows must be demolished immediately and replaced with window paper. If it cannot be demolished, smash it. Tell the people that this is the master's order, and there will be corresponding compensation and maybe even It can reduce taxes.”

The clerks were dumbfounded and groaned secretly in their hearts.

They knew that this task was arduous and cumbersome, and it was almost impossible to complete it in a short time.

But Wang Yingchao didn't care about this. He just glanced at them coldly, as if to say: "If you can't complete the task, you will be punished."

At this moment, someone spoke hesitantly: "Sir, I... I seem to have heard the master mention that the toothpaste... is the tooth powder used for brushing teeth?"

Wang Yingchao was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Well, that should be it. The master's words are always concise and to the point, but sometimes some words that we are not familiar with will pop up. Since this toothpaste is used on teeth, it has the same effect as tooth powder. It should be almost the same.”

He paused and continued: "Okay, from today on, all people must put away their tooth powder. You can also dry brush with salt, but in short, you are not allowed to use tooth powder anymore. The master has specifically told me that his toothpaste cannot be seen by others. .Do you understand everything?"

"Understood!!" The clerks replied in unison. Although their voices were loud, their hearts were filled with helplessness and confusion.

They know that this mission is not only difficult but also dangerous, and a little carelessness may lead to disaster.

But Wang Yingchao didn't care about this. He just glanced at them coldly, then turned and left the lobby.

As he left, the atmosphere in the lobby became more depressing and dull.

The minor officials looked at each other and complained secretly in their hearts.

They knew that this inspection was of great importance, not only related to the honor and future of the county government, but also related to their own wealth and lives.

As a result, they began to get busy and prepare to meet the upcoming challenges.

······························································································ ･･･

The next day, at dawn, the motorcade from Kyoto to Yangqu County was already winding down the official road like a long queue.

Emperor Jingjiang and Lin Xiaofeng sat side by side in the imperial chariot, followed by a series of officials' carriages and horses, flags fluttering, dust flying, and the momentum was like a rainbow swallowing thousands of miles, majestic and unstoppable.

Emperor Jingjiang smiled, his eyes full of expectation and reminiscence: "I haven't set foot in Yangqu County for a long time. I wonder if that land and the people are still safe now? Is there anything new in the county waiting for you? I read it?"

As he spoke, he tapped the armrest of the throne with his fingers, which was his habitual action when he was in a happy mood.

Lin Xiaofeng heard this and responded humbly: "Back to your majesty, Yangqu County officials often send letters. Although there are nothing new, there are quite a few new delicacies. When your majesty comes, you can taste them all."

As he spoke, a trace of pride flashed in his eyes, as if those newly created delicacies were his masterpieces.

Hearing this, Emperor Jingjiang nodded slightly, his eyes as deep as the sea: "That's very good. Lin Aiqing, what I'm looking forward to most when I go to Yangqu County this time is to witness the elegance of the prosperous potato with my own eyes. If this prosperous potato is really what you said , the output is amazing, you are the biggest contributor to my Jingjiang Kingdom."

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Xiaofeng with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.

Lin Xiaofeng nodded with a smile, but was extremely excited in his heart.

He seemed to have already seen the prosperity of the future: in the prosperous times, potatoes were spread all over the fields, an acre produced thousands of catties, the people had enough food and clothing, and the culture flourished... All of these will be his achievements, Lin Xiaofeng, and will be recorded in the annals of history and passed down through the ages.

The motorcade moved slowly, making a "squeaking" sound as the wheels rolled.

The sound was particularly harsh in the quiet morning.

The road was rugged and difficult, and many senior officials looked bitter during the bumps.

They frowned and clung to the edge of the carriage with both hands, fearing that they would be thrown out of the carriage accidentally.

In desperation, the team had to slow down to take care of these veterans.

Lin Xiaofeng was concerned about the safety of the princess and wanted to take the opportunity to visit the princess carriage to express her condolences.

However, Li Dexian's eyes were always staring at him, making him dare not act rashly.

He could only suppress the worry and anxiety in his heart and sit quietly in the carriage waiting for the arrival of his destination.

In this ancient march, even the lightest carriage could not move quickly; let alone the slower ox-carts.

The long bumps and treks made the day's journey extremely long.

Even under the most successful circumstances, the convoy can only travel more than forty kilometers a day; in comparison, those purely mobile troops are undoubtedly much faster.

I think back in the Three Kingdoms period, Xia Houyuan's cavalry shuttled across the battlefield like lightning; they could cover 500 miles in three days, and thousands of miles in six days.

Converted into kilometers, the distance traveled every day is still 70 kilometers; however, Emperor Jingjiang's motorcade obviously cannot be compared with it; starting from early morning until dusk, the carriage is still trudging on the gravel dirt road; most of them The veterans could no longer bear the torture; they lay beside the car window and vomited; their faces were as pale as paper; their eyes were full of pain and helplessness; it was as if this journey was an endless torture for them.

Fortunately, the asphalt pavement built by Yangqu County finally appeared on the second half of the journey.

The road was as flat as a mirror and as dark as ink, which formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding land.

The speed of the carriage gradually increased, and the horses seemed to feel the relaxed atmosphere and began to run happily with their hooves spread.

Although this asphalt road was undoubtedly a stunning existence in the eyes of ancient people, no one has the energy to pay attention to it at this moment. They just want to reach their destination as soon as possible, collapse in the carriage and take a good rest to recover their strength.

The veterans who were vomiting were screaming in agony; their faces were full of exhaustion and pain; it was as if this journey was a test of life and death for them.

The sun is like a drunk old man, hanging in the sky with a red face. Its broken golden disk is scattered all over the sky, dyeing the whole world golden.

The group of people walked in this golden world like this, their steps seemed a little heavy, but their mood was relaxed.

The afterglow of dusk is like a thin veil, gently covering the land of Yangqu County, making the place look more mysterious and ancient.
