After becoming an animal, I also have to farm

This was Zhenniang's first time to meet the emperor. Facing the golden palace and the civil and military officials, she was so nervous that she wanted to shrink into the carpet.

Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor was very understanding. After comforting Zhenniang, he asked Zhenniang to tell him about her discovery and cultivation process of the two dragon treasures.

Three years ago, everyone knew about the dragon falling case in Dongguan.

The local county magistrate even transported the dragon's skeleton to the palace for them to admire and play with.

But no one expected that the most important treasure would be obtained by a little girl first.

After listening to Zhenniang's description, the ministers in the palace finally understood.

Not only was this little woman very lucky, she even got to listen to the dragon's true words in person!

For a time, all women who had come into contact with the dragon god had this impression of Zhenniang.

Many ministers who were not interested listened patiently to Zhenniang who was describing her farming process with great enthusiasm.

In the end, the emperor made the final decision and appointed Zhenniang as an eighth-rank official, and specially ordered her to take care of the treasure at the royal estate near the capital.

Even when she bowed and left, and took the carriage to go to the manor to farm, Zhenniang felt as if she was still in a dream.

She didn't expect that she would become an official!

And she is an eighth-rank female official, Si Nong, appointed by His Majesty the Emperor himself!

Compared with the female officials in the harem, they can only stay in the palace for their entire lives to serve the empress and others.

Not only did Zhenniang have her freedom, but she also had a huge imperial estate to manage herself. It was truly a blessing from heaven, and her ancestral graves were filled with joy.

To express her gratitude to the Holy Lord, Zhenniang worked even harder.

She slowly orally narrated her three years of planting experience at home and asked the manager of the estate to record it in a book.

Zhenniang also tried to grow sweet potatoes and potatoes using the methods she had figured out.

Zhenniang discovered that sweet potatoes can be grown by planting sweet potato vines directly into the ground, which can reduce the use of seeds and increase their growth rate.

After all, if you bury a whole sweet potato directly in the ground and let the branches slowly grow out, it will take at least one and a half months.

In this half month, she can cultivate a large number of sweet potato branches and plant them directly into the ground.

In this way, in just half a month, you can catch up with the growth rate of the previous one or two months.

In addition, Zhenniang also figured out a method of cutting sprouted potatoes into pieces, wrapping them in wood ash, and planting them in the ground.

This not only maximizes seed utilization, but also accelerates the growth rate of potatoes.

During this period, Zhenniang had some experience in pest management and fertilization.

It’s just that when I’m at home, I don’t have that many things to verify my ideas.

After arriving at the royal manor, with the order of His Majesty, everyone treated her as the living Shennong and did their best to support her ideas.

For a whole year, Zhenniang planted the small pile of sweet potato and potato seeds she brought with her all over hundreds of acres of land in the royal estate.

At the first year's harvest banquet, Zhenniang was specially allowed by the emperor to be brought to the palace to attend the banquet.

Tasting the various ways of eating potatoes and sweet potatoes and the delicacies developed by the imperial kitchen, and looking at the grand scene before her, Zhenniang couldn't help but have tears covering her entire face.

Zhenniang knelt on the ground, hearing the emperor's reward to her. Listening to the congratulations of the officials, she knew that she could finally fulfill Lord Shenlong's last wish.

In order to spread these crops across the country and to see this scene with her own eyes, Zhenniang did it herself in the spring of the following year.

Zhenniang always went to the fields to observe and record the growth of crops before dawn, and did not return to the study until dark.

While learning to read, I record what I see and do today.

Spring goes and autumn comes, cold and heat disappear.

At the celebration banquet in the second year, Zhenniang became famous again, and this time the Emperor appointed her as a sixth-rank official!

Such a fast promotion speed caused many people to discuss and look at him with great caution, and even the Emperor said that he would grant him a marriage.

Zhenniang thought about it and realized that she had not yet fulfilled Lord Shenlong's last wish, so she knelt down to thank him and refused.

But in the days that followed, no matter how hard Zhenniang tried or how many times she hinted, these crops could not fill the stomachs of the people of the world and prevent more people from going hungry!

But there was no response...

Zhenniang's planting range seemed to be limited to the vicinity of the capital, and the thousand acres of the royal estate seemed to be a wall that she would never be able to walk out of in her lifetime.

Zhenniang, who realized something was wrong, accidentally met He Zhen in the fields and told him her doubts.

The two of them sat on the high city wall, looking at the endless green waves below, both speechless.

He Zhen stroked his goatee and said something extremely treasonous and head-loose to Zhen Niang.

“Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it.

Zhenniang, this treasure of heaven and earth can fill one’s stomach, but it cannot satisfy one’s heart…”

Zhenniang chewed over these words over and over again, and suddenly burst into tears.

Isn't this the same situation she faced when she first left home? Isn't this the same situation she experienced personally and is now repeating itself?

At that time, she begged her father and brother to hand the treasure over to the village head so that the aunts and sisters in the village could have enough food to eat and live a good life.

But what did my father and brother say?

They said that everyone would not be grateful to them after having a full meal.

Especially after women have enough to eat, how can they still listen to men? How can they work hard to farm and manage the housework?

So, does this mean that all those in power think this way?

It is not the priority to consider whether the people of the world can live well and have enough food.

Instead, he prioritized himself and wondered if the little power he held would be taken away by others...

Zhenniang was so disappointed. She didn't expect that even though she was just a girl, she would give priority to her family and people around her.

She would consider whether everyone would have enough to eat and no longer go hungry because of her efforts.

Can her father, brother and new mother live a good life from now on?

However, everyone now told her that her idea was impossible to achieve.

Because when people are full, they can no longer control themselves...

From then on, Zhenniang would never make any proposals in front of the Emperor and the court officials who were all men.

It was as if he had forgotten his idea of scattering the treasures all over the world.

A year later, Zhenniang resigned, saying that she had exhausted all her abilities and could no longer serve the emperor.

The emperor was deeply moved and ordered Zhenniang to be sent back home in glory and bestowed upon her numerous rewards.

In the grand farewell procession, when Zhenniang turned back to bid farewell to the emperor again, she took several more glances at the inconspicuous box in the motorcade.

The county magistrate accepted Zhenniang's favor, happily left behind a merchant's badge, and left.

Zhenniang thought of the story about the merchant she had heard and slowly curled the corners of her lips.

All men in this world are selfish, and they don't want women to escape from their control.

Now she is determined to follow the will of Lord Shenlong and ensure that all women can have enough food to eat and leave home.

By then, Zhenniang believed that there would no longer be only men in the court.

Women in every household no longer have no say and are no longer left alone to be manipulated like commodities.

This may be difficult, but Zhenniang firmly believes that she will devote her life to fulfilling the Dragon God's entrustment...
