MTL - After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister-Chapter 272 272nd
The emperor has a lot to say, but seeing Mu Wanqing's heartless appearance, she suddenly doesn't want to say anything.
She has done her best, and has done everything she should do, and she has not touched anything that should not be done.
This person is like a monkey, but what he does is frank and not annoying.
He believed that Mu Wanqing did not inquire about the affairs of the palace, the palace was sealed at night, and no news could get out.
She didn't have the time or opportunity to inquire, and it was really a coincidence that she took out an antidote at this point in time.
"What's new in the store?"
"Tender bamboo shoots and canned sea fish." Mu Wanqing picked up a fruit and gnawed, "The taste is alright, you can try it. Potatoes have already been promoted, and I have had them Various practices have been announced to the world, and there are official guidance on how to keep and plant seeds, and I believe it can greatly solve the problem of people's hunger."
"With potatoes and corn, you don't have to worry about preparing for famine, and storage granaries in various places are also being built in secret."
Governments all over the country have granaries. In case of emergency, the granaries are opened to put food. However, many human factors often cause the granaries to be half empty.
Even if there is, there will be various problems, what has been stolen, what has been replaced with old grain, what has become moldy, anyway, it is not helpful at the critical moment.
This needs to be strictly investigated by officials in various places, and the official system should be clear.
This is not the responsibility of Mu Wanqing.
What she can do is to secretly build a storage warehouse, which is full of fast food. Once a natural or man-made disaster occurs, she can quickly appease the hearts of the people and ensure that the people will not starve to death.
In recent years, there have been constant disasters, such as floods, locust plagues, earthquakes, etc.
This is equivalent to preparing a local material warehouse.
This system is handed over to Wuyiwei, who are responsible for intelligence investigation and must have a station, which is just in use.
Of course, no matter how good the policy is, there are still some mistakes in the implementation. After all, in the face of interests, selfishness will be infinitely magnified.
Strengthen supervision, multi-faceted management and control, carry out ideological education, and establish a strict punishment system.
The emperor discussed with her for a long time, this reserve is a must, he has prepared a copy in the outskirts of the capital and in the palace.
"Next, what are your plans?"
He asked casually, and Mu Wanqing answered casually, "I think so, I will sell the production methods of Mala Tang, Liangpi, Hot and Sour Powder, Potato Powder, Pancakes and Fruits. Go out, anyone can buy it for a hundred cents."
The emperor sat up straight, and came to the spirit, "What do you mean? This is your family's secret recipe. It is said that a thousand pieces of gold are not sold."
Mu Wanqing didn't really care, these recipes were not created by her, and now they are returned to the people to let them be self-reliant.
"These methods are very simple, most people can use them, the cost is low, the price is cheap and the quality is good, as long as they learn it, they can make a living. Don't cherish what is free."
She doesn't want to sell to the dignitaries who have their eyes open. Those people who have the secret recipe will definitely raise the price.
But it doesn't matter to the people. "And this income is regarded as a subsidy from local governments and is not included in the national treasury."
This is equivalent to losing oneself, but benefiting both the people and the government.
The emperor was in awe, "Aren't you afraid that it will impact the food industry under your name?"
Mu Wanqing smiled lightly, "Compared to the only big family, I want to see a hundred flowers blooming, so that people can use this to add more clothes and bowls of meat and vegetables to the family. It's my pursuit."
As for the damaged clansmen, she should make up another cumbersome formula, targeting middle-class consumers and not making money from ordinary people.
She said confidently, "As for making money, it's the easiest for me, I can do it wherever I want, there's no need to compete with the people for petty profits, what I do now It is to create an industry, start from nothing, and then guide people to follow suit and make money.”
She is not short of money for a long time, and her current wealth alone can make her food good for the next life.
Then go for it.
She is a modern thinker and doesn't think these recipes are important, but to the emperor, Mu Wanqing is a good minister with high moral character, patriotism and love for the people.
He was very moved, "I didn't see you wrong."
Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, terribly, "That is, there are not many loyal ministers like me who are capable and worry-free, so cherish them."
She amused the emperor with her vivid appearance, "Hahaha."
Mu Wanqing said with a smile, "Finally, you're smiling. You've kept your face straight these days. The atmosphere inside and outside the palace is extremely depressing. Everyone is so scared that they are shaking."
The emperor glanced at her, "I can't see it."
Mu Wanqing made a trembling motion, "I'm also very scared, but my character is stupid and bold, so I have to hold on."
Stupid? The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched, boldly saw it, stupid, if she is stupid, there is no smart person.
Mu Wanqing is a clear-headed person, very measured, and knows how to choose.
The emperor couldn't help but rejoice, "Fifty years? How dare you think about it."
He waved, "Go."
Mu Wanqing ran off with brisk steps, she was really not restrained at all.
The emperor ate and drank enough, a drowsiness welled up in his heart, rubbed his eyebrows, tried to cheer up, "Make a bowl of strong tea."
The chief servant came over and said softly, "Your Majesty, just listen to the Lord of Qingping, please rest first."
The emperor's health is not good, so how can he bear it?
The emperor is the most diligent, but thinking of Mu Wanqing's words, he changed his mind, "Then sleep."
He didn't dare to expect to live another fifty years. Twenty years would be good enough to hand over a thriving empire to the successor.
Mu Wanqing went to see the queen mother, the queen mother was drowsy, in low spirits, and could not open her eyes, Mu Wanqing asked for peace and then retired.
"Sister Wanqing, thank you."
She has heard all about it. If it wasn't for Mu Wanqing's detoxification pill, her father would probably have died.
Although he is in a coma, at least there is still a chance.
The imperial doctor said, give them a few more days, and try to copy the antidote as soon as possible.
Mu Wanqing looked at the extremely thin Du Shuai, feeling a little depressed, "I didn't help, it was the emperor's decision, I dare not take credit."
"Our Du family appreciates it." Mrs. Du Er doesn't blame the emperor for choosing the queen mother, this is human nature.
The biological mother and the uncle are naturally the former more close, and people are distant and close.
However, the detoxification pill of Mu Wanqing is very precious.
Mu Wanqing patted her arm, "It will be fine, take care of Du Shuai first, Du Du and the others don't have to worry about it in school."
"I see." Second Miss Du hesitated, "My mother..."
She has complicated feelings for her mother, love and hate.
She doesn't understand, how could her mother be so stupid? What's going on in your head?
Sometimes, she couldn't help but suspect that her mother did it on purpose.
But no matter what, this is her own mother, you can't just watch her die.
Mu Wanqing said lightly, "Let the emperor decide."
The queen mother wakes up, the Du family will not be affected, that's enough.
I have something to do with the emperor, it's that simple, she won't get involved in other people's housework.
"You just need to guard Du Shuai. If someone troubles you, you go to the queen mother, or the emperor. Don't make yourself wrong, you know?"
The water in the harem is too muddy for most people to play.
"Good."
Mu Wanqing was walking in the wind and rain corridor of the Imperial Garden, with clear river water on one side, and fishes playing in the river.
She glanced at random, her expression was calm, but she didn't know her mind was spinning so fast, the situation inside and outside the palace was in her mind.
Two figures approached from the corner, "Qingping County Lord."
It's Concubine Xi and her personal maid, they are smiling and in a good mood.
Mu Wanqing bowed her hands slightly, "I have seen Concubine Xi."
She will always be like this, always calm and graceful, as if everything is under control.
Concubine Xi particularly disliked this attitude, but she was an uneasy female official, and even the concubine dared to be disrespectful.
But, right now, she has the kindest smile on her face, "You have taken good care of my family in the past two years. This palace is very grateful and would like to invite you to a cup of tea."
There is no good banquet for the banquet, and there is no good tea for the tea, so Mu Wanqing refused directly, "No, I am busy with official business, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with, farewell."
She cupped her hands and passed by Concubine Xi.
Concubine Xi's smile froze, and the maid on one side poked her, she recovered and suppressed the tumbling anger. "Wait a minute, I have something to say."
Concubine Xi blushed, how could there be such a disgusting woman in the world?
She pulled up her dress and ran over, blocking Mu Wanqing's way, and said bluntly, "I want to cooperate with you."
Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows, her eyes full of incredulity, "Cooperation?"
Cooperation is based on what the other party wants, but what chips does Concubine Xi have?
Concubine Xi has the eldest son, this is her only bargaining chip, and it is also her confidence to show off her power.
"You help me ascend to the post, and I will keep you rich and prosperous forever."
She thought she had given Mu Wanqing a chance, and the other party would definitely agree to it excitedly.
The queen is just around the corner, she must seize this golden opportunity.
She had to admit that Mu Wanqing had more right to speak in front of the emperor than ordinary people.
Mu Wanqing was very speechless, she was stupid to be involved in the harem.
She just needs to hold the emperor's golden thigh tightly, why is she courting death?
The emperor looked cold and indifferent, very sick, but in fact he was very assertive and territorial.
Whoever dares to reach out to the harem must have his arm cut off.
She refused completely this time, don't bother her again!
Concubine Xi: ...I want to tear this **** up!
