If this news was reported by Zhang Fuyin himself, it would definitely be nonsense, and Wei Yong would definitely suggest that Li Zhuo execute all nine generations of his clan.
But if Lu Chen asked Zhang Fuyin to report this matter, the way it would be handled would be different.
Wei Yong changed his previous angry expression and asked anxiously, "Are you serious?!"
After saying this, he bowed to Li Zhuo and said, "Your Majesty, since this matter is related to the Imperial Preceptor, let's go and take a look."
Li Zhuo nodded frantically and said, "Yes, yes, you are all the pillars of our country, Da Qi. You should be more rigorous in your work!"
Liang Licang couldn't wait any longer. As soon as Li Zhuo gave the order, he immediately roared, "What are you all standing there for! Get ready! His Majesty is leaving the palace!"
The people of Gondor were dumbfounded. They had just been discussing the issue of mutual trade, and the discussion was very lively. Everyone was very enthusiastic about the mutual trade.
But why do I suddenly want to watch such unreliable things?
Fifty-nine dan per mu! Are you in Da Qi going crazy because of food shortage? How can you believe such nonsense?
If all the officials in the Great Qi had this kind of intelligence, Gondor would feel that he was good enough and could let their king quickly lead his troops south.
Seeing that the important ministers were about to leave, Gondor could only hold Ke Fuji back and said, "Master Ke, isn't this too frivolous? We were just discussing the affairs of the two countries."
Ke Fu Ji was a gentleman, so even though he was anxious to see if the auspicious sign was real, since Gondor had held him back, as the Minister of Rites he still had to explain and appease him.
"Master Gondor, don't you realize how big a deal this is? If Master Lu really can produce grain that can yield 59 dan per mu, it would be a great joy for our Great Qi."
"I admit that trade between our two countries is a big deal, but compared to the 59 dan per mu yield, everything else can be put on the back burner."
"No, Lord Ke, do you really believe this? I've been in contact with your Da Qi officials for some time, and I think you are one of the few smart people among the Da Qi officials."
"How can you believe something so obviously unreliable? Fifty-nine dan per mu! Have you ever farmed? Do you know what the highest-yielding crop yield per mu is these days? The number he reported is simply unbelievable and outrageous!"
After hearing these words, Kefuji didn't get angry. He smiled and nodded at Gangduo, saying, "I've certainly never farmed before, and I don't know much about things like crop yields. Because none of that matters. I just need to understand Master Lu. I know he's not the type to talk nonsense."
"I didn't think people could fly before, but didn't Master Lu demonstrate it a few days ago? From what I know about Master Lu, you don't need to doubt what he says. You just need to consider whether he's hiding something and whether the actual yield per mu is higher!"
Gondor opened his mouth to retort, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute.
Yes, he didn’t believe that people could fly to the sky before, but now, he has to believe it even if he doesn’t want to. This kind of thing happened right before his eyes just two days ago.
At this moment, a very terrible idea suddenly popped up in Gangduo's mind.
"If, what if, I mean what if, what if Daqi really produces 59 dan of grain per mu, what would that mean?!"
Gondor couldn't help but shudder. He didn't dare to think about it anymore because the scene was too terrible.
This will mean that the national strength of the entire Da Qi will flourish, and the relationship between Liao Jin and Da Qi may change from offensive to defensive one day!
"Impossible! This is absolutely fake. They must be trying to throw a smokescreen while I'm still here! Don't believe it, it's all an illusion! Stick to your heart!"
With such an uneasy mood, Gondor followed the officials of Da Qi to the site of the Jade Buddha Temple.
Master Jinghai was so happy that he almost went crazy because the emperor actually came to the Jade Buddha Temple in person!
Although the emperor only came to see the grain yield of 59 dan per mu, shouldn’t he also taste it after seeing it?
Since you are going to eat it, you can't be careless. After all, this is food cooked for the emperor.
What a coincidence, the vegetarian food at the Jade Buddha Temple is quite famous. His Majesty the Emperor can't just eat a bite of pumpkin, he should also try our vegetarian meat.
As long as His Majesty the Emperor can eat even a bite, Jinghai will dare to declare to the public that His Majesty likes the vegetarian food here, and the Jade Buddha Temple will be prosperous in the future!
Thinking of this, Jinghai felt extremely proud, and at the same time he also looked down upon the Taoist temple that had driven Lu Chen down the mountain.
You are so stupid! You are pushing away such a great god. You are so stupid!
You see, our Buddhist sect is different. We emphasize being kind to others. Although there were some misunderstandings with Master Lu at the beginning, after the misunderstanding was resolved, we became good friends.
It's just a piece of land. If Master Lu wants to use it, he can continue to use it. If it is not enough, he can also contribute all the land in the temple.
I heard some time ago that a certain major Buddhist sect is still resisting Master Lu’s orders. How foolish! When there is a chance in the future, Master Jinghai plans to personally criticize these people!
"Perhaps we can be even bolder. Since Immortal Master Lu was driven down the mountain by the Taoist sect, why can't our Buddhist sect accept him into the sect?"
"Letting Master Lu worship a great monk as his teacher is a completely bad idea. Besides, looking at the entire world, which great monk would dare to say that he can be Master Lu's teacher? Isn't that just asking for humiliation!"
"What I mean is, can we directly confer the status of a Bodhisattva on Master Lu in Buddhism? From now on, we will publicly announce that Master Lu is actually the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva! Don't worry about whether Master Lu admits it or not, we have already admitted it, and we fully accept it!"
"If Master Lu agrees, we'll publicize it. If Master Lu disagrees, we'll just tell the believers privately. Hehe, this method is simply perfect, unbeatable!"
Lu Chen had no idea that Jing Hai had already elevated him to the status of a Bodhisattva. At this moment, he stood before Li Zhuo with a smile on his face, and replied calmly, "Yes, Your Majesty, you heard correctly. The yield per mu of this thing is 59 dan."
"I know you might still be hesitant to believe this, but I happen to have a few acres of land left over from confiscation. Why don't you all weigh it yourselves? That way, there's no chance of me cheating."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhuo was almost overjoyed. He felt that there was no need to weigh it. Since Lu Chen dared to say so, it must be true.
Wei Yong was more cautious. He immediately ordered someone to weigh the grain. Two hours later, when it was already dark and torches were lit all around, the accountant from the Ministry of Revenue finally came running over, wailing, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Our weighing result is a yield of 63 dan per mu!"
What! There are still experts?
