The next day, morning, morning court.
"Your Majesty, the bitter battle at the border has been going on for a long time.”Wei Ge said.
Mu Yu also stepped forward and brought up the matter.
If the empress could pull it out, Mu Yu would be able to easily complete the mission and resolve the border issue.
When the empress heard Wei Ge's report, she was still calm. However, when she heard Mu Yu's words, she frowned.
If this matter wasn't handled well, it would be disastrous.
"The disaster in the northwest has not stabilized yet.”the empress said calmly.
"Your Majesty, there are still twenty million taels of silver left in the national treasury. This is not including the circulating funds in the private treasury. The autumn harvest is coming soon.”
The empress ignored Mu Yu.
She wanted to refine pills.
There was only a small amount of silver.
So what if he won at the border? It could not change the overall situation.
Ignoring him was one thing, but he had to give a reason.
At this moment, the empress's spokesperson, Minister Qin, stepped forward.""Lord Mu, the border has been like this for years. We can put it aside for now. The disaster in the northwest is the most important thing. If the national treasury doesn't have enough silver next year, how many people will starve to death? Sir, you should have some idea in your heart.”
It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it, but Mu Yu was angry.
Now he knew about the disaster in the Northwest?
Why didn't you show any concern when we didn't have any money?
Mu Yu raised his head in anger and looked at the empress. The empress, who had been fine just a moment ago, had turned extremely pale. She didn't even look at him. She covered her lower abdomen with one hand, looking weak and weak. The place she was pressing was the place where she had been injured by Zheng Xiong's huge sword a few days ago.
The anger in his heart instantly dissipated by half.
"If Your Majesty doesn't give it to me, I'll make up for it myself.”
"Just as I wish." The empress's eyes lit up. She was satisfied, but she didn't dare to say it out loud.
However, she was very happy in her heart. She finally did not get scolded today. She had saved her silver taels, her reputation, and the matter of funds for the war at the border was also resolved. The paleness on her face quickly disappeared and she became full of vitality. Then, she saw Mu Yu staring at her coldly. Her heart suddenly trembled. She quickly pretended to be weak and waved her hand."I have a cold and am tired. I have something to discuss the next day.”
"Your Majesty, please take care of your body."
"The dragon body is the most important."
"Your Majesty, please take care of your body." Mu Yu said word by word.
The empress pretended not to hear the extreme dissatisfaction in this minister's words and left the court.
Even a treacherous minister couldn't stop her from pursuing Dao!
……
"Your Majesty, have you not recovered from your injuries?" Mu Yu asked Wei Ge quietly as they left the court.
"I'm not sure." Wei Ge didn't talk about this treasonous topic and only glanced at Mu Yu.
His Majesty's injuries had long recovered. Since ancient times, he was the first person to force His Majesty to pretend that he had nothing to do.
Wei Ge also had a headache. His Majesty was really, he had used all kinds of methods, but he was still unwilling to put down cultivation.
Otherwise, how could it end up like this?
Even if Wei Ge didn't say it, Mu Yu had already guessed it. His face instantly darkened and he returned to his residence with an unhappy expression. Dog Emperor, scamming me is as easy as eating and drinking. I'm not your father. As a fourth-grade official, I'm in charge of the world. Your father wasn't this worried when he was alive, right?
Ding!
"As His Majesty is currently in a daze and does not care about the affairs of the world, the host has no choice but to save up silver on his own. You have to complete five million taels of silver within a month. The difficulty of the mission is extremely high.”
" Please choose: 1. Refine salt. 2. Glass research. 3. Development of rouge and cosmetic powder 4. Development of a new type of paper 6, Development of chicken essence seasoning…7:……8：……9：……”
"Host, please choose one of them. Please note that the further you go, the higher the success rate.”
Mu Yu gasped.
Sending a pillow when you're sleepy?
In fact, Mu Yu, who had read countless web novels, had a rough idea of how to refine salt and refine glass. If he was given some time to complete it, he would be able to earn five million taels a month. It would be difficult, as difficult as climbing up to the sky. He did not know anything about rouge and cosmetic powder, and he had only heard of penicillin. He also did not know much about the improved new paper, the natural coloring of clothes with different coloring agents, and the production of perfect perfume.
He had heard of making paper, but with his knowledge, the paper he made was probably similar to the ancient times...
There was nothing to choose.
Refining salt.
Salt was extremely important in any feudal era.
Da Luo was no exception.
It was an important source of tax revenue. In the eyes of the common people, salt was also an omnipotent divine item. There were many developments and uses of salt in this dynasty. For example, salt could cure diseases, improve eyesight, replenish qi, eye pain, strengthen muscles and bones, and eliminate poisonous insects. There were many other effects.
Yes, it was indeed a guess.
In the beginning, the people found that not eating salt would make them dizzy and swollen, so they regarded salt as a divine item. However, after observation, they guessed various specious effects.
But no matter what, salt was also an important part of a big country.
Up to the dignitaries, down to the common people, as far as the border soldiers, there is no lack of people, extremely important.
In this era, most of the salt was made from dried seawater. This was a precious salt that only high officials and nobles could afford. Ordinary people ate salt mines that were difficult to purify. It could meet their daily needs, but it was harmful to their bodies.
Eating too much unpurified and harmful salt was also the core reason why most people in ancient dynasties lived relatively short lives, other than the lack of food due to natural disasters.
"How is the refined salt purified?”Mu Yu had a vague impression of it, but he couldn't remember the details at all. It was mainly because the pace of life in the modern world was too fast. He had only read about it when he saw the relevant crafts in online novels.
"Yes, I remember. I have some impression of it, but I'm afraid it'll take me ten days to half a month, maybe two to three months, or even a year to remember.”Mu Yu shook his head and chose to accept the mission.
"Ding, you have accepted the auxiliary mission."
"Mission: Assist the border to refine refined salt.”
" Mission Requirement 1: Spit blood anywhere and study the method of refining refined salt for five days.。”
"Mission Requirement 2: Earn five million taels.”
" Mission 1 Reward: Refined Salt Refining Method.”
" Reward for Mission 2: Lifespan 10, Martial Arts Talent 10, Charm 1, Strength 3.”
" Additional Reward: Entry: Poem in the belly, Qi in the book, Rare Reward, Poem Effect: Every 10 books that you read will increase your temperament by 1 point. Reading more than 10,000 books will make you unparalleled in the world.。”
Seeing the reward, he was tempted.
In addition to the chaos of war, scholars, high officials, and nobles also played an important role in the Great Luo. With the reward of having a poem, wouldn't he be able to show his divinity in front of others in the future?
However, when he saw the mission requirements, he was speechless.
"Spitting blood again." He recalled the dark circles under his eyes not long ago, as well as the experience of falling asleep while standing up."It's only been five days.”
The next morning.
In the court.
Scholar Mu did not come to court again.
The empress pretended not to see it.
Many censors couldn't sit still anymore and started to arrest him.
"Your Majesty, I want to attend the court meeting. I'm proud of my achievements and ignore the rules of the court. Merits are merits and faults are faults. I didn't come to the morning court today and didn't ask anyone to tell me the reason. Please punish me and give this guy twenty strokes to show respect.”
A bunch of censors arrested one by one.
Minister Qin beamed.
He was the one who had been criticized the most during the court session. These dogs kept scolding him, but he couldn't defend himself. He had no choice but to complain. Now, with Scholar Mu sharing the firepower, although there weren't many people who criticized this guy, it couldn't stop the Emperor's hatred for this servant Mu…All his attention was attracted.
The morning court session passed noisily.
Finally.
"Your Majesty, I have a memorial."”
"Please speak, dear minister."
"The people are discussing the reward that Mu Shi mentioned. They are all discussing what it is. Your Majesty, please follow the hearts of the people and give the reward. Don't let the meritorious officials feel disappointed.”
