Now there are places where the harvest has begun.

These days, Li Daifu from the household department often runs towards the palace because of the good news he has received.

After hearing that these peanuts yield five or six hundred catties per mu, I was very happy.

This output is more than the previous grain output!

How does this make him unhappy?

Knowing the production of peanuts, he even ran directly outside Xinghan City, and led a group of people from the household department to watch the people harvest peanuts.

Such a scene made some painters in the city interested and began to paint directly.

Afterwards, there was a famous painting handed down to future generations, Xinghan Harvest Picture!

This painting is extremely long, stretching out to be about ten meters long.

The painter is a well-known painter.

In the painting, there are common people bending over to pull out peanuts. The painting is very detailed, so small that there are peanuts inside, and even small bugs in the field.

The painting records the harvest scene before the prosperity of the first emperor of Xinghan Dynasty.

Children come to help, and there are canals near the fields.

The willows on both sides of the canal are surrounded by boats, and there are officials in red uniforms next to the fields, looking excitedly at the harvest in the fields.

There were also officials arguing endlessly, their faces flushed.

In the length of more than ten meters, every place is extremely interesting, without any repetition.

This scroll of painting was bought by a merchant at a high price after it was painted.

But the painter didn't intend to make a move.

After Lin Yu heard about this painting, she also moved her mind, sent Xiao He out of the palace, and invited him to the palace.

After seeing this painting, Lin Yu, who liked it, paid 10 taels of silver to buy it.

After that, the painting was also collected in the palace.

"Li Aiqing, isn't the harvest already foreseeable before? Why are you still so excited at this time?"

Lu Chensheng put down the memorial in his hand, looked at the excited Li Daifu in front of him, and said helplessly.

As early as when the peanuts and seeds had just arrived here, the other party already knew about it.

At this time, seeing the harvest everywhere, isn't that expected?

However, the other party came here every few days just to report to him that there was a bumper harvest everywhere, how many catties of peanuts were produced, or how many catties of corn.

This made Lu Chensheng hear in the past few days that his head was a little big.

"My lord, this is food! Food! How can you not be happy with such a bumper harvest? If this trend continues and the harvest is completed this year, the per capita grain of our people will reach [-] catties!"

Li Daifu's face was flushed with excitement. Such data was completely unimaginable in the past.

Hearing these words, Lu Chensheng pondered for a while, "It's not enough!"

Lu Chensheng said with emotion.

"A little not enough?"

Li Daifu was stunned when he heard this.

The per capita grain is [-] catties, so much the Holy One actually said that it is not enough, what does this mean?

"There are [-] catties of grain per person on the body, which already represents every household, and there is no need to eat with leaves in the bowl as before, without enough to eat!"

Li Daifu felt that the Holy Majesty was a little unclear about such numbers, and that's why he said such words.

Lu Chensheng raised his head and looked at the minister in front of him.

"Why, Ai Qing thinks that such an achievement is enough? Today, it's just the sowing of these new varieties of grain, and it has reached the current level. What if we wait until next year? Why can't there be more?"

Li Daifu was taken aback for a while, and after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly came to his senses.

Yes, this year is only the first planting, and there are already such results, so what if it is the next year?

Especially with potassium salt, according to the Holy Master, this thing is extremely obvious for the increase of grain production.

With this thing next year, the grain output will definitely be even more exaggerated than this year!

Thinking of this, Li Daifu trembled with excitement, "If the grain production can increase by [-] to [-]% next year, it will be a prosperous age!"

After working so hard for this country for so long, are you finally looking forward to the arrival of the prosperous age?

Li Daifu was so excited that tears filled his eyes. There was excitement in his heart, but also pride and rejoicing.

His name will definitely be left in the history books in the future!

"Don't worry, the prosperous age is indeed coming."

Hearing this, Lu Chensheng couldn't help but nodded.

Prosperous times are based on various aspects, and the wealth of the people is the main factor.

Whether you can eat enough, whether you have clothes to wear, and how you live are all important assessments.

However, Lu Chensheng didn't want to take care of the assessment. Since the people are getting richer, it means that the national treasury is about to become richer.

In this way, the war has money again.

In order to cope with the upcoming war, Lu Chensheng specially allocated a large sum of money from the treasury to directly build several military factories for the production of weapons.

The armaments in various places began to be updated frequently.

"Bao, the ship sailing out of a foreign country is back!"

The ship that went out to sea is back?

When Lu Chensheng heard the news, he was overjoyed. The other party's return meant that he had returned with a large sum of money!

Sure enough, Shan Ziheng came to report the information.

All the weapons transported out have been sold out, and tens of millions of taels of silver have been brought back.

Li Daifu from the household department hadn't left yet, and he was elated when he heard such a large sum of money.

"Your Majesty, don't you spend this money indiscriminately! Your mausoleum hasn't been built yet. This time, Daoist Yunsong personally chose an auspicious time. If you miss this time, you don't know when the ground will be broken. What time is it!"

The last time the mausoleum was dismissed by the Holy Majesty, he hadn't talked about it for a long time.

Not to mention no money, even if you have money, but without this auspicious time, how can you break ground at will?

But this time it's different, with money and auspicious time, it is natural to agree on the budget.

Lu Chensheng felt helpless, why did he mention this again?

"That's all right, all you have to do is arrange this matter, write a memorandum and upload it, and I will approve it."

Lu Chensheng waved his hand, Dr. Li was overjoyed when he heard it, and wrote the memorial directly in front of the table beside him, and asked Lu Chensheng to approve it after he was ready to finish writing.

The corner of Lu Chensheng's mouth twitched, and he didn't care about the other party anymore.

"This time you went to sea, you are using a steam engine boat, why did you come back so late this time?"

Lu Chensheng asked.

Shan Ziheng was indeed a little strange this time, logically speaking, he should have come back early, and he came back this time as if he came back along the ocean current.

"Returning to the Holy One, I went to search for other continents, and I really found the other continents. There is countless gold on that continent! I have left some soldiers on it and ordered some people to dig!"

Shan Ziheng's face flushed with excitement this time.

Li Daifu shook his hand, and the ink made the white paper into a ball.

"What did you say? There's gold everywhere?"

Li Daifu's breathing became a little short of breath. If it was true, wouldn't it mean that the state treasury would not be short of money in the future?

He can spend whatever he wants in the future, is that all right?

When someone comes to ask for a budget, he can wave his hand and say yes?

Shan Ziheng was full of excitement, "That's right, at least there are several large gold mines connected together, and they seem to be open-pit gold mines, which are extremely huge, the Holy One doesn't know, and it looks like there is gold everywhere at a glance. "

Shan Ziheng thought of the scene he saw when he first came to that place.

At that time, the soldiers on the side all felt that they were dazzled, how could they all look like gold at a glance.

After confirming for a long time, everyone finally confirmed that they were not mistaken.

"Not bad, very good!" Lu Chensheng also had a smile on his face this time, "Tell me, what reward do you want."

Lu Chensheng's affirmation made Shan Ziheng extremely excited.

"I don't dare to bow, but I also want to continue to serve the Holy One, hoping to lead the battle and expand the territory for the Holy One!"

This is to command an army, but it has great ambitions.

Lu Chensheng didn't mind that the other party had such great ambitions, so after thinking about it, he nodded.

The other party had already brought tribute from hundreds of countries before, and now he has made such a great contribution. It is reasonable to ask for the position of commander-in-chief.

"So, let you command the Blue Wing Army, are you willing?"

Shan Ziheng naturally knew that the leader of the Blue Wing Army was Qing.

Now Xuanniao and Blue Wing have no one to command.

"Thank you, my lord, for your grace, and I wish you all the best!"

Shan Ziheng's face was full of ecstasy. He had finally waited for this day. What was he working so hard for? He was commanding an army.

Xinghan was established at the beginning, but anyone who has the ability can climb up, no matter whether you have a background or not, whether you have a family behind you or not.

For him, these are the best years. If he waits for a few years, it may not be so easy to climb.

Now, he finally did it and climbed to this position.

"After a while, I will ask someone to give you the general order and the official uniform. When you are going to take office, get acquainted with the soldiers. I am afraid that it will not be long before you will be used. Don't call me disappointment."

"Yes!"

Shan Ziheng understood that there must be a big battle waiting for him, so he dared to be negligent at this moment, he hurriedly responded later, seeing that the Holy Majesty had no other arrangements, he got up and left.

Chapter 8 to Eighteen

When the scorching summer passed and the autumn harvest gradually ushered in, good news came from the Grand Duchy of Kiev.

All the cities of the Grand Duchy of Kiev were breached, and by this time, one tenth of the people had been transported away.

This is great news.

After annexing the territory of the Grand Duchy of Kiev, the territory of the Xinghan Empire directly expanded to more than 300 million square kilometers.

But it also created a huge problem.

That is manpower.

With such a large territory, the population of Xinghan Empire is less than [-] million.

This allows such a huge place to be shared, and there is simply not enough manpower to manage it.

After Lu Chensheng looked at the roughly calculated map, he immediately frowned, with a look of helplessness on his face.

Such a large territory, but with so few people in the Xinghan Empire, they want to expand the map to be their own people, and then multiply and prosper, and in the future it will become their own territory and their own hometown.

That still takes a very long time to go.

Lu Chensheng rubbed his forehead and walked outside the palace for a walk.

The ginkgo leaves in the courtyard have turned yellow, which is really beautiful.

Out of liking for ginkgo leaves, Lin Yu specially ordered people not to sweep up the leaves.

It is said that everyone has cleaned up the place, and it is a little less human.

"Husband is so sad, why is that?"

Lin Yu was also looking at the ginkgo leaves at the moment, and when he saw Lu Chensheng coming out for a walk, he was overjoyed.

But then, seeing a little helplessness on Lu Chensheng's face, he suddenly asked a little strangely.
