After checking the paint and seal and confirming that there were no problems, Zhou Changmin opened the box and took out the express delivery.
After seeing the above content, I was immediately shocked, my face turned pale, my body swayed, and I almost fell!
Fortunately, Zhou Kui had quick eyesight and quick hands. He quickly stepped forward to support Zhou Changmin and asked worriedly: "Master, has something serious happened?"
Zhou Kui is not only the housekeeper of the family, but also Zhou Changmin's number one confidant. There is nothing he can't say to Zhou Kui.
"See for yourself!"
Zhou Changmin handed the urgent delivery directly to Zhou Kui.
Zhou Kui quickly took the delivery and browsed it quickly. He was also shocked!
"I thought the imperial court had suspended the policy of converting rice to mulberry, but unexpectedly it restarted it! Moreover, we were asked to do a pilot project in Jiangsu! Before the Spring Festival, one million pieces of silk should be woven and delivered to Nanyang merchants! How much raw silk would be needed?
!”
"We in Jiangsu have little arable land. Even if we convert 30% of the fields from rice to mulberry, we may not be able to raise the required raw silk! Furthermore, the people have already planted the rice seedlings, and we just suffered a disaster last winter.
At this time, if people are allowed to destroy rice and plant mulberry trees, they will inevitably face huge resistance!"
"If something unexpected happens, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will trigger a civil uprising!"
Zhou Changmin sat on the chair, his face ashen!
How could he not know the issues Zhou Kui mentioned?!
After a moment of silence, he sighed and said slowly: "The imperial court has issued a decree. If you comply with the decree, it will be difficult to implement the policy! If you do not comply with the decree, my career will end here!"
Just now, he was excited about the possibility of going to Beijing to take up a new position, but at this moment, he suddenly became despairing again!
No one can empathize with this huge psychological gap except himself!
Zhou Kui was also very anxious for his master. After thinking about it, he said: "Master, I think this matter may not be a dead end!"
"What do you think? Tell me!"
Zhou Changmin knew that although his butler had no fame, he was a very shrewd person, and he also knew the situation of the court very well, so he wanted to hear his opinion!
"May I ask, sir, did you hear any news related to this matter when you came to Beijing this time?"
"Although the imperial court has discussed the matter of converting rice to mulberry, it has not heard what was mentioned in the secret decree."
"In this case, it should be that the imperial court made a temporary move during the few days when the master returned to Suzhou from the capital, without careful consideration! The imperial court may not have a clear understanding of the actual situation in Jiangsu! In addition, although it is under the imperial court
Secret decree, but after all, the real head of the family is not Mr. Yan Ge. And Mr. Yan Ge is your master! In this case, I think you should go to Beijing again as soon as possible and explain the matter to Mr. Yan Ge face to face.
Difficulty! Mr. Yan Ge has always been very fond of you, I think, Mr. Yan Ge will not sit back and watch you fall into despair!"
After analysis, Zhou Kui gave preliminary countermeasures!
"Um......"
After hearing Zhou Kui's words, Zhou Changmin was not as panicked as before.
In fact, there is nothing mysterious about the countermeasures Zhou Kui mentioned, and he can naturally think of them.
However, when I saw this secret decree just now, I was so shocked that the authorities were so confused that they almost lost their sense of proportion!
Now, after careful analysis, he also realized that this was indeed not a dead end, and there was still a lot of room for maneuver! This chapter has been completed!
