They are going to eat at the same table with the emperor.
I can sit at the entrance of the village and brag about this for a whole year.
Lunch was quickly prepared and served. Looking at the whole table full of dishes, Erlaizi and Dafang were stunned. This was too much! The emperor could not eat so much in one meal.
They originally thought that there would be no more than a dozen dishes, but now looking at so many dishes, they don’t know what to do. Which one should they pick up first? Each dish seems so exquisite that picking up a piece of food with chopsticks will ruin its beauty.
The chief eunuch brought a few young eunuchs to serve them meals and pick up dishes for them. Erlaizi and Dafang just ate whatever they picked up.
Two bowls of rice were placed on the emperor's side. He tasted each one and found that one was soft and sticky, while the other was hard but fragrant.
"This hard one is delicious, much better than anything I've had before."
The emperor, who usually ate at most half a bowl of rice, ate a whole bowl this time. The eunuchs were very happy when they saw it and praised the rice in their hearts, saying that it was really good.
After dinner, they began to discuss planting. Jiang Tuantuan said, "We are still planting cotton, but there is not enough land. It would be great if we had more."
The emperor said, "Then we can use the land in the imperial farm."
Although this imperial farm belonged to the emperor's private land, its use was supervised by the ministers. However, he could grow some grain to sell and some of it could go into his own treasury.
"good."
The emperor added, "Keep planting this wheat and see if you can grow it to produce a higher yield. That way, there will be no more famine in the world."
Thinking about the bright future, the emperor felt his heart filled with fighting spirit.
He generously gave them two hundred acres of land for their own use.
"Erlaizi and Dafang should just go to the imperial farm and farm."
The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Just go straight to the Minister of Agriculture. That way you won't be criticized by the court officials. On the contrary, you'll get their support."
"When the time comes, I will send some people to follow your instructions and do the work. You must watch carefully. I will not treat you unfairly."
The two men looked at each other, not quite understanding what Si Nong was, but they worked for the group leader, so why did they go to the imperial farm?
So he looked at Jiang Tuantuan in confusion.
Jiang Tuantuan said with some regret, "Such a great opportunity, I should thank His Majesty right away."
After hearing this, the two men knelt down again and kowtowed to thank the emperor.
Looking at these two simple and honest people, the emperor also liked them very much.
Hope they can stay like this forever.
The emperor only remembered the seeds at the last moment and decided to ask Jiang Tuantuan for them. So he said, "Sister-in-law, I need you to provide some of these seeds."
Jiang Tuantuan said, "No problem. Your Majesty, this is for the sake of the nation. I will sell it to you at a lower price."
I didn't expect that she would still talk about money with me at this point. I immediately looked up at the ceiling.
"I agree."
Jiang Tuantuan was secretly happy. With two hundred acres, he could make a lot of money.
Although he had to spend money to buy it, the emperor thought this was the best way.
Thinking that Jiang Tuantuan must have been guiding these two people in farming, and in order to let Jiang Tuantuan work for the royal family in the future, he directly let her join the Ministry of Agriculture.
She couldn't refuse any of them.
He entered the palace for no apparent reason and even got an official position.
Others would be extremely happy, but she found it very troublesome. How could she leave happily from now on?
When the emperor issued this order, many court officials submitted memorials expressing their disagreement. The emperor directly and forcefully told all the ministers about the achievements made by Er Laizi and others, and now no one said anything.
I am completely convinced.
Even the people from the Ministry of Agriculture were unable to refute it.
The emperor used the back door to allow them to become officials.
On the way back, the three of them sat in the carriage, and Er Laizi asked curiously: "Boss, what is Sinong? What is Sinong?"
Dafang also tilted her head and looked at her with curiosity.
"It's the Ministry of Agriculture, which is in charge of the country's planting and harvesting. In short, you are officials, but the lowest officials, only ninth rank. I am eighth rank."
Erlaizi and Dafang didn't pay any attention to the word "ninth rank" at the end. After hearing the words "you have become officials", they were stunned. They didn't hear it wrong, they actually became officials, they actually became officials!
Oh my god, am I dreaming? Erlaizi pinched his thigh hard and screamed in pain.
"This is true. Don't get excited. When you go to the imperial farm, just do your job well. Don't think about other things. Don't get involved in official struggles. Just do your job well."
Dafang nodded immediately, "I understand."
The second beggar was still surprised.
Dafang said: "I will comfort her."
Jiang Tuantuan gave her a thumbs up and said, "Reliable!"
"What should we do after we leave the farm?"
"Don't worry, I'll hand it over to Mai Wu and let him take charge. You guys just focus on your work. I'll come over and take a look if everything is alright."
"good."
When they arrived at the door, Jiang Tuantuan got off the carriage first. After returning home, the first thing he said was, "Dad, Mom, my two naughty brothers, I'm an official now!"
Jiang An, who was drinking water, spit it out and ran out of the house quickly, "Sister, you don't have a fever, right?"
"Of course not, eighth-rank official!"
Jiang Dafeng exclaimed in admiration, "As expected of my daughter, she's amazing. You two little ones should learn from her and have a feast tonight!"
