After visiting the steam train, Lin Zhibai saw Long Xingdi looking at him with a hint of amusing.

It is not difficult to see that the other party is looking forward to what surprise he can bring out.

My father regarded himself as Doraemon, and he could take out anything from his magical pocket.

But obviously, this is a dream.

Although Lin Zhibai, in his previous life, had a good education, he worked in art after graduation.

Most of the knowledge about science and engineering and specific technologies are floating on the surface. This can be achieved by cement and steaming cars. It is also the result of Lin Zi's thoughts based on the direction he provided. His father's expectations for him are still too high.

Facing Emperor Longxing's disappointed look, Lin Zhibai simply spoke up: "Father, my son's thinking achievements over the past few years have all been here. If my father still has expectations for me, it will take a long time to wait."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Long Xing said with some regret: "Thank you for your hard work in the emperor. I have been overjoyed to have this steam train and cement. If possible, I still hope that the emperor can think more about grain production."

To be honest, what Emperor Long Xing was most looking forward to at this moment was that Lin Zhibai could find a way to solve the problem of insufficient food.

If there is enough food, plus the money he has accumulated over the years of selling snow salt, and with the cement and steam trains, there is no need to wait until the tax reform is completed, and you can just save money and grain to rectify the army and start.

pity.

Lin Zhibai glanced at Emperor Longxing. He also knew that food was extremely important and even the cornerstone of civilization development.

If there is enough food, it will not only prevent the people from drowning babies, but will not have the tragedy of people eating each other again, but will also encourage childbirth, develop more people, and even the whole people practice martial arts.

By then, the national strength of the Dahua Dynasty will expand to an unprecedented level.

Even if it truly sweeps the world and becomes the only overlord-level force in this world, it is no longer a delusion.

However, increasing grain output is not a simple thing to accomplish. It requires finding a suitable crop and spending a long time breeding and selection. It is also closely related to water conservancy projects, fertilizers, pesticides, etc.

All the things are added together, and it is not something he can easily solve by just putting forward some ideas.

Even if he really put all his attention on this, it would not be able to solve the problem without 20 or 30 years.

After looking at Lin Zi who stopped the steam train and walked back, a thought popped up in Lin Zhibai's mind and said with a smile: "My father also saw today, what great effect will be produced if the way of investigating things can be achieved.

"Since that's the case, why didn't my father set up a court of law to transfer officials and scholars from all over the world who are good at research and thinking but are not good at political affairs, and give them a certain amount of funds.

"Among the children of the royal family, many people usually have nothing to do outside of studying and eating, or they can also make them work hard in this regard."

"If they achieve something, they can reward them with a large sum of money, or they can reward them with high officials, high salaries and even titles. Under such stimulation, it may cause additional surprises. The food problem you mentioned by Father may also be solved."

This suggestion is to let Emperor Longxing encourage scientific development.

As science develops, natural productivity develops with it. When the material is greatly enriched, many problems will no longer be problems.

Perhaps this proposal will not be useful for many years at the beginning, but as time goes by, some results can always be produced in a hundred decades.

After thinking about it, Emperor Long Xing agreed to Lin Zhibai's suggestion.

Today's steam trains and cement have indeed made Long Xingdi taste the sweetness. Even if his investment has been losing money, he will make a lot of money as long as he produces some results.

So, Lin Zi, who had just walked back, was extremely surprised to hear the majestic voice of Emperor Longxing: "Lin Zi listened to the order, and you have made contributions to studying things. I am very pleased to give you the title of Count of the county. I hope you will not forget your original intention in the future and continue to work hard."

The body instinctively knelt down and listened to the order. Only then did I realize that I was hit by a huge pie.

This is an earl, with a fief and a noble status.

It should have nothing to do with him, an ordinary royal family member who has passed down for many generations, who is neither high nor low, but he did not expect that he would simply study the things he is interested in based on the ideas of His Royal Highness.

"I thank Your Majesty for the reward!" Lin Zi kowtowed and thanked loudly.

...

"The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and the imperial edict said: "The craftsman is the supervisor of Lin Zi..."

When Emperor Longxing's oral order was completely turned into an official document and issued the imperial edict, the entire craftsman was in full bloom.

They did not expect that a master craftsman could have such a generous reward based on the idea of ​​a noble man. Even this master craftsman was a disciple of the royal family, and the reward was a bit too ridiculous.

When they learned that Emperor Longxing established the Geju Academy, as long as they joined it and made results, they could get such a rich reward, everyone was excited.

These masters chose to join almost the first time. As the news spread, more and more scholars began to try to join.

I have to say that wealth is touching.

This imperial edict fully played the role of buying horse bones with a wealth of money, and immediately mobilized the subjective initiative of many people.

...

In the court, Emperor Long Xing steadily carried out tax reform actions according to his plan.

From promoting poor officials, to appease refugees, organizing land reclamation and production, building cement workshops, opening coal mines, and exploring railways, we are preparing step by step for the goal of releasing the horse grassland.

Because of this imperial edict, the Gewu Academy mobilized subjective initiative and began to quickly go from its initial establishment to its right track. Many scholars spoke freely here, hoping to find great achievements that could be useful to the country.

On the other hand, Lin Zhibai's Qianlong Pavilion has gained a lot recently.

After three months of his advice to Emperor Longxing, thanks to the living sample of Yu Dong, who bought horse bones with a daughter, he received the second treasure of heaven and earth.

This treasure of heaven and earth is called [Ningxinguo], which is a fruit that grows on a huge fruit tree and looks very much like a plum.

It is also a kind of useful, but not completely useful treasure.

According to Qin Zhen, a scattered man from the rivers and lakes who discovered this treasure, he found this fruit tree on an isolated island in the South China Sea. After taking it, it can nourish the mind and restore the mind, reduce the time of sleep without damaging the body.
