    Fang Jifan pulled his face and said righteously: "Uncle Shi, who do you think your nephew is? We, Fang Jifan, are moral! I don't even dare to think about such false reporting. A true man should act with dignity.  He is as bright as the sun and the moon! How is he any different from an animal when he commits fraud?"

    ""

    Zhang Mao paused and looked at Fang Jifan's righteous face. He immediately felt ashamed of himself due to the righteousness on his face.

    ¡°I am really nothing, I am not even as good as a child!¡±

    After taking a serious look at Fang Jifan, Zhang Mao suddenly felt like he was looking at him with admiration after three days apart.

    He never expected that Fang Jifan would be such an honest child. That Lao Fang was really good at raising his children. Compared with Lao Fang, he was really inferior to a dog.

    There was a sigh in my heart, and I couldn¡¯t care less about sighing at this time. His Majesty is still waiting for his return to life!

    So Zhang Mao said without further delay: "Thirty stones, just thirty stones. Let's go and get back to life."

    After saying that, Zhang Mao patted Fang Jifan's shoulder affectionately, showing a particularly warm tone.

    ¡­¡­¡­¡­

    At this time, in Jinshen Hall, a court discussion was still going on.

    It¡¯s just that Emperor Hongzhi was in a daze.

    Although I find it hard to believe the so-called thirty stone per mu.

    But Emperor Hongzhi had some vague expectations.

    Since the beginning of history, let alone thirty dan, this crop yields ten dan per mu, which has never been heard of.

    "In fact, if Fang Jifan offered ten stones, Emperor Hongzhi might not believe it, but the thirty stones was so absurd that once he heard it, he felt that it was too fake.

    He couldn¡¯t help but sigh in his heart, how great it would be if this could come true.

    But then, he shook his head again.

    The ministers were already quarreling with each other, but Emperor Hongzhi was distracted. When he came back to his senses, he only looked at the empty hall blankly.

    Liu Jian was presiding over this court meeting and looked at Emperor Hongzhi inadvertently. Emperor Hongzhi would always speak, but today, he could clearly feel His Majesty's anxiety.

    ¡°Actuallyhe can understand it.

    Aren¡¯t the so-called state affairs just a matter of money and food?

    "When a disaster occurs, money and food are needed, and a rebellion breaks out, even if the troops and horses are not moved, food and grass must go first. Everything in the world cannot escape these two words.

    The auspiciousness of thirty dan per mu sounds absurd, but it can¡¯t help but make your majesty think about it!  In fact, why is he not moved?

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    What a pity That boy Fang Jifan has aroused everyone's appetite, but his auspiciousness is really empty.

    But at this moment, a eunuch hurriedly came in and said: "Your Majesty, the British Duke is back"

    By this time, it was almost evening, and the nearly two-hour meeting had come to an end.

    After hearing this, Emperor Hongzhi did not rush to summon the British Duke. Instead, he said calmly: "Let him wait. I will tell him later."

    ??Here, there is actually the intention to protect that boy Fang Jifan.

    Now that the British Duke has been asked to conduct a thorough investigation, there is a high probability that the boy did not know what medicine he took today and was making a false report. However, the false report was found out. In front of the civil and military officials of the court, the British Duke said this  When the incident is reported, it will definitely cause an uproar. There are many censors here. Once everyone rushes to speak out, it is not bad, but it will make it impossible for him and Fang Jifan to step down.

    Therefore, it is better to spread the news privately. In this way, even if it is a false report, at least it will not attract attention. With so many things happening in the court every day, the censors are afraid that they are too lazy to mention the old things again.

    The eunuch nodded and withdrew.

    But not long after, there was a noise outside.

    When the British Duke Zhang Mao and Fang Jifan entered the palace, they waited outside the Jinshen Palace. However, the eunuch told them to wait.

    Zhang Mao is impatient and anxious. He cannot wait for such a big happy event for a moment.

    The rules in the palace are strict, and the British Duke is a veteran minister. If it were normal times, His Majesty would have asked him to wait for three days and three nights, and he would not have lost his temper.

    But nowhe said with a face: "No, we will meet you immediately. How can we delay such a big matter? Come with me. If anything happens, I will take care of you."

    After saying that, he gently pushed away the eunuch standing in front of him with a flick of his hand.?I fell into the ice cellar at the same time. It turned out that it was not rice or wheat.

    If this is the case, then even if the yield is one hundred stones per mu, what is the point?

    "Can it be eaten?" Liu Jian continued to question.

    Every question raised by Liu Jian was the object of attention of the monarchs and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

    Fang Jifan composed himself: "It's delicious."

    He did not answer the question of whether it was possible, but directly answered all the doubts by saying "it's delicious".

    Liu Jian raised his eyebrows, and now it became interesting.

    But he still had many questions and continued: "Can it relieve hunger?"

    "Yes!" Fang Jifan answered simply.

    Thinking about the prosperous days of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it was supported by these sweet potatoes, which increased the population nearly ten times and fed countless people.

    But¡­many people still don¡¯t believe it.

    This is not about whether they are smart or not. No one who can stand here is a fool.

    But sweet potatoes are something they have never seen before. Now that they hear something so 'miraculous', they really can't believe it.

    Liu Jian took a deep breath excitedly, and then said word by word: "How to prove it?"

    "It's easy to prove." Fang Jifan answered word for word in front of everyone: "I brought them all, you will know after you try them!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
