Feng Sanjie is a very typical beauty, with her eyebrows, eyes, facial features, figure and face. But she came here as a messenger of King De, and she often had a cold face and rarely showed such a charming side.

Zhou Xian smiled faintly, "We have only known each other for two days, and love is really not up to date, so let's talk about profit! The wind girl said! What do you want to get from me? Silver, house, or something else?"

Sister Feng shook her head and said, "I am alone and don't need much money, so the house is the same. Now I don't know what I want, so the Supervisor owes me a promise! One day in the future, the little woman will ask the Supervisor again!"

Zhou Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is not good, the promised things are always the hardest to fulfill."

Sister Feng San smiled and said, "Then will the commander respond or not!"

Zhou Xian thought for a while and said, "Yes, but I can only say that I will do my best then and cannot make a complete guarantee."

Sister Feng San smiled and said, "Then I will think about this matter for a few more days?"

Zhou Xian shook his head helplessly, raised his glass and touched her again, and then drank it all. He smiled and said, "Okay! Then wait until I break through Jinan City, Miss Feng will tell me the decision."

Sister Feng also picked up the wine glass and drank it all, and smiled and said, "One word is certain."

Zhou Xian picked up a piece of rabbit meat and said to Feng Sanjie: "Miss Feng, I will be very busy in the next few days, so I won't accompany Miss Feng. You can go around in Zibo and Yidu to see if this place is different from Jinan. I will ask Chen Feng to bring a few people with you."

Sister Feng San was stunned for a moment and said, "Master General, are you going to start a war with Liu Zeqing?"

Zhou Xianxiao said, "The war on the front line has never stopped, but it is almost time for a counterattack. I asked Miss Feng to go around, which is also intentional. Now there are countless people in Shandong. What I want to do first is to calm prices, especially the price of grain, which is best to reduce to seven taels of silver per stone. Only in this way can most common people barely survive the cold winter. Now, grain stores in Yidu, Zibo, Linqu, Guangrao and other places are controlled by me. Miss Feng has run the business of grain stores for King De in the past. If they can take over these grain stores, of course it is best. If they cannot, it is also good to give me some advice."

Feng Sanjie looked at Zhou Xian strangely, "Mr. Governor, now the canal is blocked, and the grain cannot be transported from the south to the north. It is natural for the price of grain to rise, unless you have a way to transport grain to Shandong. Moreover, six taels and one stone is the current price of grain in the south. In northern Zhili, rice is already more than twenty taels of silver. In Shandong, due to the war, the prices of grain in the East and the three states of the West are completely different. In Jinan, it is basically fifteen taels of silver per stone. But in Qingzhou, it is already as high as ten taels of silver per stone, and the prices of other grains such as wheat, barley, sorghum, etc. are also rising sharply. In other words, even if you have a way to transport rice from the south to Shandong, at the price of seven taels and one stone, you can only do not make any profit or lose at most."

Zhou Xian smiled and said, "Miss Feng is worthy of being a good shopkeeper. Speaking of these things is as clear as a matter of knowledge. But one thing you said was wrong. My subordinates have calculated that they will pay about two cents of silver for every stone sold."

Feng Sanjie was even more surprised, "Why did the Governor do this?"

Zhou Xian said: "Some things are more important than making money. They are now the people under my rule, and I cannot ignore them. Moreover, I need a solid rear to help me defeat Liu Zeqing as soon as possible."

Sister Feng San nodded and said, "I admire the love of the generals for the people. But if you think so, others may not be. So if someone buys these foods and transports them to other places for sale!"

Zhou Xian said: "I will implement grain control in the prefectures I occupy. Except for designated grain stores, other people are prohibited from selling grain. Every person who buys grain needs to register and limit the amount each person purchases each month."

Sister Feng San continued to ask: "If someone buys it in a variety of ways, then gather it and transport it to other places for sale!"

Zhou Xian smiled, with a ruthless look in his eyes, "Then I can only kill you."

Zhou Xian rode a horse and followed more than a dozen guards around him. He stopped outside a ridge of a field and looked into the distance. In the wilderness not far away, countless people were busy and busy. Zhou Xian ordered the confiscation of the land of the vassal kings, and also cleared some of the land occupied by the powerful, gentry, and some uninhabited land. He instantly obtained a large amount of land.

Some of the people who were busy farming in the fields were newly settled prisoners, and some were refugees who were recruited. There were many, but at this moment they had a common name, which was ordinary people.

Han Chang came over with a young man wearing mahjong clothes with his legs covered in mud. Seeing Zhou Xian, the two of them hurriedly bowed: "I have met the commander-in-chief."

Zhou Xian looked at the tall and thin young man and asked with a smile: "Are you Shi Zunyi? The geek who studied agricultural books at the Six Arts Academy and cultivated new species?"

Shi Zunyi replied: "It's a little people who made the governor laugh. The villain has no other skills, he just likes this."

Zhou Xian waved his hand, "What can you laugh at me? In an environment like the Ming Dynasty, you can completely abandon the imperial examination road and do something that benefits the country and the people. What you do is enough to make most Hanlin Confucian scholars who can only read the books of sages ashamed. In this season, it is too late to plant wheat again. Fortunately, you proposed to plant potatoes and wait for the harvest to come next year, and I don't know how many lives of the people can save. In my opinion, this is the real big thing."

Shi Zunyi said: "In fact, it is a bit late to plant potatoes at this time. If you can plant them in August, you can harvest them by early November while the weather has not yet become cold. Now the weather is getting colder and the growth will slow down. The harvest time can only be postponed to February of the next year, and the yield will also decrease a lot."

Zhou Xian squatted down, picked up a branch from the side, gently pushed the soil and exposed the small potato pieces that had been planted. Some had not yet moved, but some had already started to spit out green buds. "This is also a matter of no way. Who told us to take Qingzhou recently! Dongchang and the two prefectures of Jinan are still in the hands of the rebels. Due to the war, countless fields are deserted and no one is farming. By the next year, I don't know how many people will starve to death!"

Shi Zunyi nodded slightly and said nothing.

Zhou Xian stood up, patted the dust in his hand, and asked Han Chang: "Who is usually responsible for the field farmer among the officials of the prefecture?"
