Even Li Chen was a little dumbfounded in this scene.

In the surprised gazes of people around, Zheng Baorong also noticed his loss of composure.

A fat, greasy face was full of embarrassment. He hurriedly knelt down and said, "Please forgive me, I am excited for a moment and lose my composure in front of the palace."

"Forget it."

Of course, Li Chen would not be petty because of such trivial matters of sesame and mung beans. He said seriously: "You are different from those high-ranking and uninhabited Jingguaners. You have struggled hard at the grassroots level. You know that the closer you get to the people, the harder it is to be a official."

"But you have seen this thing too. To be honest, once it is successfully promoted, it will be a thing that will be famous throughout the ages. But the problem is that you have to find a way to make the people in your jurisdiction accept it."

After looking at Zheng Baorong who was thinking, Li Chen said: "Inland and coastal areas are different, but the people's obsession with land and agriculture is the same. It has been thousands of years, and no one has ever tried to let them grow sweet potatoes, and they don't recognize this thing. It is not easy to let them change it easily."

"In recent years, natural disasters have been repeated, and the harvest cost in the land has been poor. Even in the capital city under the emperor's feet, many people are completely counting on the little harvest in the land to survive."

"So how to get this done well, this is your business."

"I don't care about the process. As long as the result is good, you will get promoted and get rich, but the result is not good. If the head falls to the ground, do you understand?"

These words are not heart-to-heart, but they are definitely from Li Chen's heart.

Sweet potato promotion, a good start is related to the overall layout. If the first promotion fails, then there will be many obstacles to continue to be implemented in the future.

If the Qin Empire was still the empire that had just been established more than two hundred years ago, with good weather and strong country, then Li Chen could have forced it with administrative orders, and the people could accept it if the people had some losses, and the court could accept it.

But now the entire empire is full of loopholes, and the imperial court's control over the entire world is the weakest trough period in more than 300 years. After leaving the capital and Zhili Prefecture, crossing the south of the Yellow River and going to the south, Li Chen was really not sure how much prestige the court had and how many people were willing to listen.

So it is crucial to get off to a good start.

Originally, the best candidate in Li Chen's mind was Zhou Ping'an, but Li Chen always had some concerns about him.

In comparison, Zheng Baorong's ability is 100% inferior to Zhou Ping'an, but he is better at mastering than Zhou Ping'an.

For such a big thing, the person you choose is safest.

By all kinds of coincidences, Zheng Baorong's opportunity came like this.

"Weichen, I understand."

Zheng Baorong didn't know many of the joints inside, but he also knew that if this matter was done well, his own benefits would definitely be indispensable. Although the price was his own head, wealth and honor were in danger. Some people could fight for something yellow and white, let alone the authority to reach the sky at this step?

Zheng Baorong, who was breathing rapidly, felt a floodgate called ambition in his heart being pushed open. His fat face was full of determination and ruthlessness, and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I only hope to get cooperation from the East Factory, and there is nothing else!"

Everyone in the world knows that the East Factory is a dog in the East Palace, so Zheng Baorong naturally wanted to try the sharpness of this mad dog, so he said boldly.
