Chapter 85

It was because the people only wanted to fill their stomachs; they dared not hope for the collection of taxes from nobles and the distribution of good farmland.

Because this thought was deeply rooted in the minds of the people, who believed it was an impossible task.

Therefore, there were not even many people who mentioned these two matters.

Now that there was such an auspicious omen, reform was no longer a dream; it could be realized!

They were the most excited of all.

The benefits of reform lay with the people and the soldiers.

And since they led troops to fight wars all year round, what they hoped for most was that the reform would succeed!

The group all sat down, feeling their whole bodies soft and powerless.

It was as if they had fought a hard battle.

The group looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with burning eyes.

The surprise tonight came too suddenly, catching them off guard.

"Ninth Prince, then you called us here, I wonder if it is..."

Meng Yi spoke first; he knew it certainly could not be as simple as just eating new food.

The others also listened quietly; this was what they wanted to know as well.

"I called you here because I want you to believe in this new type of food and to attach importance to it."

"In the future Great Qin, these foods will be the foundation; with grain, Great Qin can do whatever it wants!"

"Whatever remnants of the Six States, whatever Northern Xiongnu—let them all go to hell!"

"Tomorrow in the court, I will release this news. I have a series of plans that have not yet been implemented, and I need your cooperation!"

Fu Su and the others were all stirred to passion by Ying Ying Zi Ye's words.

The current situation of Great Qin was, on the surface, the unification of the world.

But internally, there were still many problems that had not been solved.

The reason Great Qin had internal troubles and external threats was, to put it bluntly, two main reasons.

The first was that the First Emperor's health was becoming increasingly weak, which was why the remnants of the Six States were eyeing them covetously.

The second was the lack of grain; they did not dare to make any major moves against the Northern Xiongnu.

If the problem of grain and fodder could be solved, then Great Qin's tiger and wolf army would have nothing to fear!

Whatever Northern Xiongnu, whatever remnants of the Six States—in the eyes of Great Qin, they were all trash!

"Ninth Prince, I wonder how we need to cooperate with you?"

Old General Wang Jian asked the key to the problem directly.

Ying Ying Zi Ye did not waste words and again had the steward bring up a tray.

Inside were seeds of sweet potatoes and potatoes, the size of melon seeds. ===== CHAPTER 87 =====
