After finishing all this, Li Junxian called Zhuang Zhou aside and asked in a low voice:
"Mr. Zhuang, His Majesty asked me to ask you if you have any other high-yield crops that could solve the food problem for the people of the Tang Dynasty?"
Um?
How did the emperor know this?
But now Zhuang Zhou roughly understood it.

Zhuang Zhou recalled that when the handsome young man approached him this morning to ask if he would become an official, he had said that if he could ensure that all the people of the Tang Dynasty had enough food to eat, they would no longer suffer from hunger.
