254 Chapter 200, was there any trouble


    Jiang Beiran could not help but shake his head from time to time when he was discussing the recent decrees with the grand tutor.


    It was only after he became emperor that he noticed the strange weather conditions on thend of the ck Dragon. It was not that thend of the ck Dragon’s geography was strange. On the contrary, thend of the ck Dragon’s four seasons and various climatic zones were quite simr to Earth’s.


    But because of the existence of spiritual essence, thend of the ck dragon often has all kinds of abnormal weather conditions.


    For example, in the two neighboring counties, one side has been suffering from a severe drought for three years, while the other side is suffering from a cold wind that does not affect each other at all. Moreover, every other year, there will bepletely different weather conditions in some ces,


    even if Jiang Beiran’s knowledge of geography is not much, but also understand that this is absolutely not scientific, so can only use metaphysics to exin.


    After adding some metaphysical geographical knowledge to himself, Jiang Beiran once again discussed with Shi Xing ‘an how to deal with the drought.


    After being reprimanded by Jiang Beiranst time, Shi Xing ‘an drafted a new memorial for the drought. Compared to the previous south-to-north water diversion project, the content of this memorial could be said to be normal.


    However, being normal meant that it was normal.


    Regarding the drought, Shi Xing ‘an gave a total of three suggestions.


    First was to pay a small amount of taxes and umte arge amount of resources.


    This could reduce the production burden of the farmers and allow the people to leave behind enough food. With that, even if a drought happened, the farmers would have a certain amount of living resources.


    Second was to give the farmhouse, use what weapons, and weather the drought.


    Giving the farmhouse, use what weapons. Naturally, when a drought happened, the imperial court would help the people solve the problem of where to live.


    If the ce waspletely deste, they could only move people to eat. The imperial court would arrange for them to move to other prefectures and counties.


    Thirdly, they would send envoys to inspect and listen to the people.


    They would send envoys to the prefectures and counties to investigate. If they found that the drought was too frequent and was not suitable for the people, they would move them to other ces, they would not wait until themoners were about to starve to death before carrying out the n.


    These three suggestions were indeed useful strategies, but they were all ways to escape. In other words, if they could not beat you, couldn’t I run away?


    None of them was a real solution.


    After reading the memorial, Jiang Beiran agreed and asked Shi Xing ‘an to quickly carry out the n. However, in his heart, he was concerned about this matter. To be more precise, he was concerned about Shi Xing ‘an’s suggestion of digging a canal.


    From the beginning, Shi Xing ‘an had admitted that the memorial was indeed intended to probe, but it was notpletely impossible to carry out. As long as the emperor could mobilize the cultivators, this major project would definitely not be too taxing on the people and money. Once it waspleted.., it would be a matter that wouldst for a thousand years.


    Looking at the drought-stricken areas on the map one after another, Jiang Beiran leaned back on the dragon chair and closed his eyes in deep thought.


    ‘mobilize the cultivators…


    It was very, very difficult. It had to be known that whether it was righteous sect disciples or demonic cult disciples, helping themon people was a “Spur of the moment”or a “Piece of cake.”.


    It meant that they were willing to help with things that were easy or easy for them to aplish.


    However, for the canal opening, even if it was done by cultivators, it was still an extremely huge project. After all, digging a canal was not something that could bepleted by using mystic energy to bombard the people. It was a delicate job.


    In other words, arge number of cultivators would have to give up their cultivation time to help themon people dig a canal. One or two days, they might be able to do it with their passion, but what about a year? What about ten years?


    Of course, if they could pay the corresponding remuneration, it was not impossible to drive the cultivators.


    After all, Jiang Beiran had discovered from the beginning that in this fantasy world, there were not only strong and powerful duels and the number one in the world, there were even more ‘firewood, rice, oil, and salt’.


    Cultivators also needed to earn money.


    However, it was impossible for the weak imperial court to give a satisfactory reward to the cultivator.


    ‘as expected, if I want to achieve any goal, earning money is the first priority.’


    Thinking up to this point, Jiang Beiran’s train of thought suddenly became much more lively. After all, when he was in the sect of returning hearts, he already had the embryonic form of the Jiang Entertainment Empire in his mind. As long as he perfected it, when he waspletely familiar with the imperial court.., and after the ck and white sects had divided up the “Cake,”Jiang Beiran felt that this matter was definitely something to be done.


    Shaolin kung fu and football, how could it not be done?


    “Be loyal,”Jiang Beiran shouted with his eyes closed.


    “Your servant is here,”Gu Jinzhong, who was serving at the side, quickly replied.


    “Go and help me get the ‘collection of inquiries’and the ‘Outline of the waterway’.”


    “Yes, Your Majesty.”


    On the first day Jiang Beiran came, he gave Gu Jinzhong a question that could be described as simple or not simple, which was to ask him to make a list of all the books in the meditation hall.


    If Gu Jinzhong was good at his job, he could naturallyplete the list quickly based on the evidence or records left behind during the purchase. However, if he was not good at his job, it would be very difficult for him toplete the list in one day.


    However, in the end, it turned out that this internal official did a good job. Although it was a little over the time limit, he still managed topile the list of all the books in Jingxin Hall. He alsopleted the [ Note ] of the general contents of the books, if he was ced in the officialdom, he could be considered a capable official.


    However, this also made Jiang Beiran more interested in Deng Bo.


    As the saying goes, “One soldier bears a bear, and all bears bear a bear.”If the emperor was very good, then he would naturally be a ruler, a sage, and a virtuous minister. However, if the emperor was not good, then his subordinates would naturally be corrupt officials and despicable people who only knew how to curry favor.
