Chapter 62 King Xuanyong is planning to take the position of right prime minister?
After returning to the capital, Ning Fan dived straight into his bedroom. The climate in the capital had already entered early winter. Whether it was potatoes or sweet potatoes, it was difficult to survive in large-scale planting.
And if you build a greenhouse, the cost will probably increase greatly!
However, thinking of the terrifying yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes, Ning Fan finally made up his mind!
“What should we replace the plastic film with?”
"It has to have thermal insulation effect, and its light transmittance must also meet the requirements. Is there such a material in this era?"
Ning Fan couldn't help but have a headache. He had read many time-travel novels in his previous life. The protagonist wanted to cultivate seeds and easily built a greenhouse, but the article never detailed the materials used to build it!
You know, Ning Fan was born in a farm family in his previous life, and his family also had a greenhouse. If he wanted to maintain the temperature of a greenhouse, he only needed to light a fire and connect a thick iron pipe to achieve the warmth-keeping effect!
But the plastic film needed to build a greenhouse cannot be manufactured in this era!
"Is it really possible that we have to wait until next spring?"
"That's all, let's build the Quyuanli first!"
Ning Fan pondered for a moment, took out the manufacturing drawings of the Quyuan plow from the system space, examined it carefully, and couldn't help but marvel at the ingenuity and exquisiteness of the ancient farming tools!
"This plow is made up of 11 parts, and the manufacturing process is not difficult!"
"However, it may take some time to promote it!"
After Ning Fan thought for a while, he heard from Lin Yong: "Uncle Lin, send a few craftsmen to build this plow for me before tomorrow morning!"
"yes!"
Lin Yong looked at the sketch in Ning Fan's hand with a look of surprise on his face: "Second Master, is this a plow?"
"good!"
"Are you preparing..."
"It's nothing. I found that the plow used by Dayu was a bit laborious, so I created this curved shaft plow!"
"Hey, Second Master, are you sure this fancy plow is better than our Dayu's plow?"
"nonsense!"
Ning Fan met Lin Yong's questioning gaze and said angrily: "What do you mean by bells and whistles? Haven't you noticed that this plow is much smaller than the plow passed down by our ancestors?"
"Yes Yes Yes!"
"What the second master said is true, I admire you!"
"I'm going to do it right away. I'll get this plow out before tonight!"
"etc!"
Seeing Lin Yong about to leave, Ning Fan said softly: "I asked you to transfer the guards of the house, have you ever transferred them?"
"Master, what are you doing?"
"Those evil spirits in the dark are just worried that they won't find a chance to attack you!"
"The guards in the house have been transferred. Who will protect your safety?"
"Follow the king's instructions!" Ning Fan said in a tone that was unquestionable: "Of course I won't make fun of my life. We must be dismissed before tonight!"
"yes!"
Lin Yong had a look of helplessness on his face and silently exited the lobby!
Ning Fan smelled a strong fishy smell on his body, ordered the maid to prepare hot water, and took a hot bath!
After putting on a neat set of clothes, he took Dian Wei and walked towards the palace!
Now that the farming system has been implemented, the matter of borrowing grain from the imperial court has not yet been discussed with the emperor!
Moreover, the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the candidate for the right minister must be discussed with the emperor first. Although Ning Fan is very sure about this matter, he does not dare to overstep it!
…
"My son, please see your father!"
"Haha, if you are not busy investigating the case, how come you still have time to see me?"
Emperor Yu didn't even raise his head, he kept waving his wolf hair, reviewing the memorial in his hand, and frowning from time to time!
Ning Fan had long been accustomed to Emperor Yu's attitude. He strode forward, took a lychee from the fruit plate on Emperor Yu's dragon case, put it into his mouth, chewed it and said: "Father, my son I came here to ask for something!”
"oh?"
Emperor Yu looked startled. He raised his head and saw Ning Fan sitting down unceremoniously on the side. He suddenly said angrily: "Is there anything in this world that you can't do?"
"Hey, Father, there are so many things that I can't do!"
"However, fortunately, I have the solid backing of my father as my son!"
"Stop talking nonsense and tell the truth!"
There was also a hint of curiosity in Emperor Yu's eyes. With this boy's current status and power, no matter what he did, he almost always had to open his mouth!
Even the ministers in the court did not dare to touch his troubles, but now he actually asked for help!
"Reporting to my father, I want to borrow money and food from you!"
"Um?"
Emperor Yu's brows suddenly frowned: "Why, your Prince Xuanyong's Mansion can't have enough food?"
"No!"
Ning Fan shook his head slightly and explained softly: "During this period, I have implemented military training methods in the military camp, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers has been greatly improved!"
"However, after repeated high-intensity training, the physical fitness of the soldiers cannot keep up, and now the farming system is about to be implemented again. Therefore, I want to change the food for the 100,000 new troops to three meals a day!"
"What!"
A look of shock appeared on Emperor Yu's face, and he said solemnly: "Do you know what it means for a hundred thousand troops to have one extra meal a day?"
"certainly!"
"I have already thought carefully about it!" Faced with Emperor Yu's question, Ning Fan was already prepared: "First, the farming system can be implemented in the border army of Dayu. The soldiers can reclaim wasteland and plant it themselves, and they can get 40% of the income. harvest!"
"Secondly, father, if you want to train an invincible iron army, physical fitness is the first factor. Moreover, if the soldiers can't even fill their stomachs, how can they achieve the desired training effect?"
"Third, this time I borrowed grain on behalf of the West City Camp from the court. After the spring plowing and autumn harvest next year, I will return the principal and interest in full!"
Listening to Ning Fan's words, Emperor Yu's face also fell into deep thought. After a long time, he looked at Ning Fan and said, "I agree, but I heard that there will be a big competition in your army in three months. I will go to see the training effect in person!"
"Thank you, father!"
Ning Fan bowed slightly, watching Emperor Yu focus on the memorial in his hand again, and couldn't help but step forward and take a glance.
Seeing Ning Fan was so bold, Emperor Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, but he was not angry.
"Father, are you going to establish a right prime minister?"
"Yes!"
Emperor Yu nodded slightly, seeming to be quite annoyed. He glanced at Ning Fan and said, "The position of right prime minister has been vacant for a long time. Now the court officials have submitted memorials every now and then, asking for the establishment of the right prime minister!"
"But looking at all the civil and military officials in the court, most of those who have the qualifications of prime minister are from aristocratic families!"
"I don't have a suitable candidate, and those beasts who are secretly disobeying the order actually brought out the ancestral system to pressure me!"
"Hmph, when the matter in the East Territory is settled, I will settle accounts with them!"
Looking at Emperor Yu's angry face, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes, Ning Fan whispered, "Father, I want to recommend a suitable candidate!"
"Yes?"
When Emperor Yu heard this, his face suddenly condensed, his eyes became extremely deep, looking at Ning Fan, making it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry!
"Could this kid also be aiming at the right prime minister?"
"Did I misjudge him?"
"It seems that no one in the court has had much interaction with him?"
Emperor Yu's face was as calm as water, his eyes were calm, but he was emitting an invisible imperial aura!
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became much heavier. Ning Fan had a faint smile on his face, and he seemed not to be frightened by Emperor Yu's aura at all, and he looked straight at him!
Wei Ying, who was standing aside, buried his head deeply, not daring to breathe, looking at the father and son in front of him!
