Chapter 323 Crazy Horse 2 more
Some officials reacted quickly and quickly sold the stored grain when new grain varieties came out, so the losses were not huge.
But some people are still waiting and watching. Over the years, grain prices have fluctuated from time to time. They think that even if it is a new grain type, it would be great if the harvest can be several dozen kilograms per acre.
It will have little impact on food prices. When this wave of enthusiasm passes, food prices will definitely return to normal.
After these people carefully analyzed the situation, they confidently waited for food prices to rise again.
As a result, they were caught off guard by the sweet potatoes and corn that followed.
That official was one of the people waiting and watching, and he lost a lot as a result.
But His Majesty personally ordered the implementation of these new grains and species, so how could they dare to show dissatisfaction?
Wouldn’t this just make Su Chen Ji hate him?
Otherwise, it stands to reason that Su Chen has been managing the Three Prefectures for more than a year. Now let him have a formal official position and stay in the Three Prefectures for another two or three years.
As long as the three states are settled, it will be a great achievement.
By that time, Su Chen will return to Beijing, and with this great achievement, he will be put into great use by His Majesty.
If he were recalled now, it would be equivalent to being recruited.
Although he has merit, his qualifications are insufficient.
In the end, the most that can be done is to create a marquis with little real power, and the main thing is to appease him.
If you want to become an official in the court, you have to start from the bottom...
Although the Zuo Prime Minister did not trust Su Chen, he did not allow anyone to smear the emperor, so he did not even raise an eyebrow at that ignorant official.

On the other side, after Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu finished shopping for the small shop, their last stop was to go to the bookstore to buy paper.
Nowadays, all school-age children in Shan'ao have learned Pinyin, and even some older ones have learned many words under the influence of the children.
Nowadays, village schools basically focus on elective courses.
Basically, there is only one cultural class a day, and the rest of the time is spent on self-study.
For this reason, the library of Cunxue has more and more books.
There are even many students' homework collections... not only Pinyin exercise collections, but also calligraphy practice books, composition collections, picture books, hand-collected collections, etc.
These were collected by Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu, who selected some neatly written homework and bound them into a volume.
The purpose is to use these booklets as a learning tool for future students.
In this way, the pressure of insufficient book storage in the library has been greatly relieved.
Today's village schools have fewer classes and more students. The gentlemen are more responsible for answering students' questions and assigning homework.
Yes, although there are fewer classes, the homework is not less at all.
Because of this, the biggest expense in the village now is paper...
Moreover, students learned that excellent homework will be bound into a book. Now they are not only motivated to do homework, but the quality is also higher than before, and the points collected are higher...
The bookstore owner enthusiastically helped Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu carry the bundles of paper to the car and tie them up.
"Let's go slowly, see you later!" The shopkeeper leaned against the door of the bookstore, grinning from ear to ear.
Since these two became regular customers of the bookstore, the bookstore's monthly paper sales have been much higher than before.
Sometimes he was also curious. These two people didn't look like rich people, so why did they spend so much money every time they bought paper and books?!
And I don’t just buy it once, I buy it almost every month.
How many scholars does this family have to support?!
However, he was curious, so he didn't pry around. After all, this was what General Zhao had specifically told...
Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu were pushing a cart when a convoy came towards them. They took a look at the distance in the alley and could only carefully step aside and wait for the convoy to pass before they left...
Seeing the motorcade getting closer and closer, Jiang Yu's ears twitched slightly and he turned to look behind him...
I saw a horse charging over on the other side of the street, followed by a group of guards.
In front of the guard is a young boy.
The street is not very long, and the distance between the two sides quickly shortens.
The motorcade stopped first not far from Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu, but now they were walking in the middle of the street. Such a large motorcade obviously had nowhere to retreat.
A moment of dilemma.
The young boy on the opposite side also noticed the existence of the convoy, waved his arms vigorously, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Get out of the way, get out of the way... No, help stop it! Stop it! Who can save the young master, the Jin family?"
Lots of rewards!!!”
The people around him were very excited when they heard that there was a reward.
But the horse was stimulated at first sight. They were mortals, so what could they do to stop it?
Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu stood on the roadside seemingly calm, but in fact they were ready for rescue.
Jiang Yu made slight adjustments to his right arm with his left hand. It seemed like he just scratched his arm.
As the spring of the arrow hidden in the sleeve changed, the arrow box soaked in poison was loaded.
This sleeve arrow was improved by Jiang Yu. Although it is small, it has great potential inside.
The original one arrow box was changed into two, so the previous arrows were no longer suitable for use, they were too thick and could not fit.
The stools were all changed into long and thin needles.
In the two needle boxes, one was filled with poison, and the other was filled with poison that can seal the throat when blood is seen.
"Brother, it takes a few seconds for a horse to become unconscious after being hit by a needle. It may be frightened before then, so I can only wait until the horse is very close to us to take action.
When the time comes, I will shoot out the needle, and you will be ready to save people... By the way, remember to help me pull the needle back quietly."
Because they were so focused on rescuing people, neither of them noticed that a woman in riding gear emerged from the carriage at the front of the convoy.
Seeing the horses getting closer and closer, Jiang Yu slowly raised his arms, counting down in his mind according to the speed of the horses...
At this moment, the woman in riding clothes who was standing on the shaft of the carriage sprinted directly on the shaft of the carriage, stepped on the back of the team's horse to gain strength, then jumped up, landed on the back of the Crazy Horse, and grabbed the rope with all her strength.
The horse that was moving quickly raised its front legs high due to the sudden pull...
The woman held the child on the horse firmly in her arms, and then dismounted neatly with the child in her arms.
But the moment she landed, Crazy Horse also collapsed.
The woman was a little stunned, but the child in her arms was crying so loudly that she had no time to care...
At this time, the guards and servants following behind also arrived and immediately surrounded the woman and child.
"Master, Master, are you okay?"
"It hurts...wuwuwu...it hurts..."
"Master, where does it hurt??" The boy coaxed the child and turned to the guard: "Quickly find a doctor."
Jiang Yao and Jiang Yu looked at each other, Jiang Yu nodded, then stepped forward and said: "Give way, give way, I am the doctor, I am the doctor."
While everyone's attention was focused on Jiang Yu, Jiang Yao quietly stepped forward and pulled out the needle Jiang Yu had injected into the horse's belly.
Because of the close distance, the needle penetrated very deeply, and most of the needle did not penetrate into the flesh. Because the needle was so thin, no one noticed it for a while.
Jiang Yao took out a handkerchief from her arms, lowered her arm as she walked, and brushed it against the horse's belly as if unintentionally, and then the needle was pulled out...
After Jiang Yu announced her identity, the guards quickly let her into the encirclement. Jiang Yao was a step too late, and the encirclement had been closed again.
Seeing that the guards stopped the people watching the excitement, Jiang Yao followed the crowd and retreated to her cart to wait for Jiang Yu to finish his work.
