"Your Majesty, we must quickly promote the planting of this immortal item!”
"This old minister has volunteered to take on this responsibility!”
Feng Quji took a step forward and volunteered, his voice full of determination.
Li Si was shocked!
According to his plan, the promotion of potatoes and sweet potatoes would definitely harm the interests of the nobles and would be opposed by the courtiers.
It was impossible for anyone to take the initiative to take on this difficult task. As long as the officials objected, Li Si would take the initiative to step forward and take on the job.
Everything went smoothly!
But who would have thought that Feng Quji, this old fellow, would actually take the initiative to take on this task!
This was different from what Li Si had imagined. Feng Quji did not care about martial arts!
With a flash of inspiration, Li Si suddenly realized that his plan seemed to have gone wrong.
Old nobles like Feng Quji controlled large areas of land. Once the potatoes and sweet potatoes were distributed, these people would be the biggest beneficiary.
Therefore, how could Feng Quji object?
If he wanted the nobles to object, he had to link the potatoes and sweet potatoes to the land in their hands.
Li Si immediately stepped forward and cupped his fists.
"Your Majesty, although the yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes per mu is heaven-defying and can be used as staple food, it is still difficult to save the people of the world. It is just some unimportant effects.”
Instantly, the officials were in an uproar!
How could such a heaven-defying immortal item not save Great Qin?
How was that possible? It was impossible.!
The people of the world ate as much as they could. They couldn't finish it!
Just as all the officials were puzzled, a light flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes. He understood what Li Si meant!
Therefore, at this time, he had to cooperate.
"Oh, what do you mean?"
"If such an immortal item can't save the people of the world, then what can save my ministers and the people?”
Seeing that Ying Zheng had handed him the words, Li Si naturally had to catch them.
"Your Majesty, I feel that the reason why the people of Great Qin are not full is not because of the low production of crops.”
"The real flaw is Great Qin's land distribution system!”
At this point, Li Si could clearly feel a few murderous gazes from many directions in the court.
However, Li Si did not budge and even raised his voice.
"Your Majesty, to all the ministers of the court, I would like to ask: even though Great Qin has a lot of land, how much of it is actually in the hands of the people?”
"And how much land do the nobles have?”
Li Si's words directly tore off all of Great Qin and the nobles 'loincloths!
The things that they had tacitly agreed to and could not be exposed were directly exposed by Li Si!
Not only did these nobles use their land to control the lives of the people, but they also started to think of seizing land to protect themselves. It could be said that they had gradually become a malignant tumor of Great Qin!
If the nobles were not eliminated, Great Qin would definitely perish!
And this land was just a reason and an excuse for Ying Zheng to deal with the nobles!
Among all the officials in the court, the one who was the most shocked and hurt was Feng Quji!
Everyone knew that in the entire Xianyang City, besides the Ying Clan and the Imperial Court, he had the most land!
Li Si's words would obviously hurt Feng Quji's interests.
But after all, he was old and shrewd. Feng Quji's will was not swallowed by anger.
Because he was not sure whether it was Li Si himself or Ying Zheng behind the scenes who started the topic of land with potatoes and sweet potatoes, and then attacked the nobles!
If it was really Li Si, then Feng Quji had nothing to fear.
As long as Ying Zheng did not target the nobles, Li Si's personal ability and ideas were nothing in Feng Quji's eyes!
And if Ying Zheng had secretly instructed Li Si to do this…
Then he, Feng Quji, was nothing!
At this moment, Ying Zheng glanced at the officials below him and asked.
"Everyone, Li Si just sent a message asking if anyone can answer who has more land.”
At this moment, Ying Zheng's words brought the morning court back to the main topic.
It was over!
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Feng Quji instantly understood.
He had even stamped a seal on himself in his heart. There were only two words on the seal: "We're doomed!"
First, they used potatoes and sweet potatoes to raise the land, and then they used the land to attract the fire to the nobles.
If they wanted to attack the nobles, he, Feng Quji, would definitely be the first to bear the brunt!
And all of this was clearly Ying Zheng's intention!
At this moment, Feng Quji's heart was really pounding.
Could it be that Ying Zheng wanted to use the matter of potatoes and sweet potatoes to attack the nobles and clans in the court?
From the looks of it, this possibility was extremely high. What should he do then?
Just as Feng Quji was lost in his thoughts, the court's field order directly dragged out all the land data in detail.
The Field Order was an official position that was in charge of the land in the world. Every word he said was like a knife, stabbing at Feng Quji!
Li Si added after Field Order finished speaking.
"You've seen His Majesty's situation as well. The vast majority of the land is controlled by the nobles, and the land in the hands of the commoners is pitifully small.”
"The ultimate goal of promoting the heaven-defying immortal items like potatoes and sweet potatoes is to benefit the people of the world, but who is the real beneficiary?”
At this point, Li Si looked at Feng Quji.
After all, he was Li Si, and his methods in politics were top-notch!
"As such, Your Majesty, what I said was right. The key to Great Qin is to solve the problem of land, not food production!”
Li Si's implication was too obvious. Wasn't solving the land problem the same as solving the aristocrats 'problem?
On the high platform, Ying Zheng was very good at delivering messages.
"Then Li Si, do you have any good ideas to solve the land problem?”
