Chapter 39 The Princess Goes to Disaster Relief



Nobles: Actually, we rarely eat white rice. We only eat coarse rice.

Who is so rich that they can eat white rice every meal?

Before the common people, ministers, and concubines could digest these things, Gu Sang's next few words shocked the ancients so much that they stopped breathing again!

She said: "It is not difficult to study here. Since every child is born, they have enjoyed free vaccinations from the state, allowing them to thrive and grow healthily."

"Then there's nine years of compulsory education. There's no tuition or fees. Regardless of wealth, as long as you're a Chinese citizen, you can attend public school."

"Oh, it's still the same for both men and women! Women get the same treatment!"

"After nine years of compulsory education, if you're admitted to high school and are truly struggling, the government will provide poverty subsidies. Furthermore, students who excel in their studies can receive scholarships to offset tuition fees, including the government-funded Yu Lu Program."

"In a word, as long as the child wants to go to school, there is no need to worry about tuition fees!"

boom!

Gu Sang's words were like a stone dropped into the water, causing waves a foot high and a loud splash.

They are already numb from just envy!

How can there be a country that is so beautiful?

All children, regardless of their birth, whether rich or poor, can have access to education.

"Oh my God! Is there such a wonderful place in this world?"

"How can I get to the world you're in? My son has always wanted to study. He's very smart. If he can study, he'll definitely be able to get the top score in the exam."

"Yes, that's right. My son is the same. Everyone in the neighborhood praises him for his intelligence. It's a pity that my family doesn't have the money to support his education."

The people shouted and hoped to hear Gu Sang tell them the way to their place.

The food there is good and they can go to school. Even if they are thousands of miles away, they will go there with hope.

Can--

However, under their envious gazes, Gu Sang slowly shook his head.

"We belong to a different world, you can't come here."

"But if you can remember everything the teacher just said, it will be enough for you to have enough food and clothing. If the court works harder, all the children in your country can also go to school!"

The people lowered their heads in disappointment.

It was not until they heard the following words that hope was rekindled in their hearts.

Yes, they cannot go to that powerful country, but they can use their hard-working hands to make this country better.

Maybe one day, they will be able to eat white rice and meat every meal!

The people knelt on the ground and shouted sincerely: "Thank you for your guidance, Immortal. We will definitely not let you down."

"Yes, we will go back and make compost right away."

Seeing that people were willing to try new things, Gu Sang smiled with satisfaction and then turned off the live broadcast.

Today’s live broadcast ends here!

Seeing the screen disappear, Pei Changying's eyes were filled with sinister intent.

Damn it!

It seems that the people outside the city have also seen Gu Sang’s live broadcast. The method of sowing is known to everyone, so how can he suppress it!

If he opposes sowing again, the people will definitely object!

Pei Changying asked calmly, "How's your copying going? Are those methods really feasible?"

The ministers lowered their heads and whispered to each other for a moment.

The Minister of Works stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, according to our discussion, what Concubine Gu taught us is very feasible."

"Maybe we can find a good piece of farmland to experiment with. We can also give the tea oil we mentioned a try."

Pei Changying had a blank expression on his face, and he was so angry that his teeth were almost broken.

He could only bite the bullet and say, "Sure."

The Minister of Works' face lit up with joy, and he continued, "Your Majesty, regarding the sweet potato crop, do we need to send people to Fujian and other regions to look for it?"

The ministers in the court who had always been skeptical changed their expressions slightly.

But when they thought about the food diversity two thousand years later, and all the people having rosy faces and eating well, the ministers couldn't help but be moved.

Perhaps, some conservative ideas should be discarded!

There was a rare silence in the court, and no one stood up to oppose.

An unhappy look flashed across Pei Changying's face. He was already very unhappy that he was forced to acquiesce to the rice planting method today!

Now these ministers actually dare to mention sweet potatoes and potatoes?

Pei Changying snorted coldly and said in a cold voice, "Do you really trust Gu Sang so much?"

"The southeastern plague hasn't been resolved yet, and the national treasury has been empty year after year. You haven't even started experimenting with crop improvement methods, and you're already looking for sweet potatoes!"

"Do you think the treasury is sufficient to support your extravagance?"

"You're just too eager for quick success. You're so obedient to a woman's words! If we fail, will you take responsibility?!"

The ministers were silent and dared not mention anything about sweet potatoes.

But Pei Changying would never have thought of this!

It is because of his selfishness;

It was because he was unwilling to listen to Gu Sang's method;

So he will never have the chance to eat sweet potatoes in this life!

And it was precisely because of his arrogance that the eldest princess rose to prominence!

A few days later.

Plague city.

The eldest princess took several imperial doctors on a long journey to the villages where the plague was most severe.

After drinking some water at the post station, the princess didn't even take a break, but hurriedly took the imperial physician into the epidemic prevention area.

When the city gates opened, all that came into view were pale and skinny villagers sitting in every corner of the city, and the breath of death and despair emanated from them.

The whole city was filled with the smell of rotten meat and iron, a smell that was both foul and sour.

Vomit was everywhere on the roadside, and there were corpses lying motionless.

Soldiers wearing homemade cotton masks carried the motionless people on the ground to prevent the plague from spreading again.

The eldest princess walked past the people.

Pairs of eyes longing for survival stared straight at the group of people who had just entered the city, like a pack of wolves trapped in despair, waiting for an opportunity to snatch food.

Just as the people were staring at the eldest princess and her entourage with green eyes.

A loud voice echoed from the end of the street to the main street.

"Your Highness, how could you condescend to come to this epidemic area? It's too dangerous!"

As the sound came, a pair of soldiers came running over.

When the people in the epidemic area saw this, they were all shocked.

They opened their mouths and murmured, "Princess...how could such a noble person come to our place?"

"Did the Emperor send the eldest princess to rescue us?"

"Are we saved? Wuuwuwu... Long live the emperor! The emperor will not abandon us, the people!"

The eldest princess looked very heavy when she witnessed the displacement of the people.

She was welcomed to a relatively clean government office.

The imperial physician immediately handed over the medicines brought from the palace to the local doctors and distributed them.

The eldest princess, who had just helped distribute the medicine, suddenly heard a sound in her head.

"Ding! Please get ready! The connection will open in ten minutes."
