In fact, this method of using the law to promote new crops is not original by Liu Yu.

In the seventeenth century, it was created by Frederick II of Prussia.

At that time, Prussia was in full swing, and the original wheat yield was greatly reduced.

The high-yield potatoes introduced from South America were resisted by the vast majority of conservative farmers and landlords. No matter how good Frederick II was appointed to send people to promote it, few people would pay attention to it.

Faced with this situation, Frederick II issued a decree directly, known as the Germanic potato decree.

Mandatory promotion by laws.

"Your Majesty, if this happens, the output of one state here will be comparable to that of two states next year!" Xi Jian said happily.

"Yes, 30% are just required by the law, and you can also issue another decree. Anyone who increases farming can enjoy other benefits. You can think about the specific benefits!" Liu Yu said.

"As for your order, Your Majesty!" Xi Jian said.

However, Xi Jian thought about it and found another new problem.

"Your Majesty, even if the output has been increased, the tax has been reduced. Not only will the tax be increased next year, but it will also be reduced." Xi Jian was a little worried.

He is now working on finance and internal affairs, and many places to spend money are waiting to ask for money.

"Haha, I want to tell me, you have to change your mind. You can't just stare at those field taxes!" Liu Yu said with a smile.

"Your Majesty wants to accumulate grain and not focus on the land tax. How can you increase the grain?" Xi Jian said inexplicably.

"I have already thought of other ways. I can exchange a variety of grains for my own use without increasing the land tax." Liu Yu said.

"What is Your Majesty going to do?" Xi Jian asked.

"I have more than a dozen workshops around Luoyang, and all kinds of new items of food, clothing, housing and transportation are continuously produced. The price of these things is much higher than that of grain. It is not very simple to exchange these things for grain!" Liu Yu said.

Xi Jian was completely relieved.

Those workshops are busy all day long, with all kinds of novel things emerging one after another. By the beginning of next spring, we will definitely be able to increase production capacity by sequel.

After dealing with these things, Xi Jian and others withdrew.

There was a slight sound on the side door next to it.

Then, a ball of fragrance floated in.

Liu Yu, who was sitting on the Hu chair, smelled the fragrance and knew that it was Yuwen Zhao who came.

The fragrance of this little woman has long been deeply remembered.

"Your Majesty, I'm here." Yuwen Zhao said.

Liu Yu pulled her into his arms and said.

"I've been staying in the yard these days, and I'm really a bit bored. Your father has sent you a few peerless horses and will take you on a horse today!"

When Yuwen Zhao heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.

"Really, Your Majesty?"

She has been very fond of riding horses since she was a child and also likes horses.

During these days in Luoyang, I rarely have the opportunity to ride a horse.

Now I heard that Liu Yu wanted to take her on a horse in person, I was naturally very happy.

"Of course it's true. You go clean up and we'll go right away." Liu Yu said.

In fact, today is not just about riding a horse.

As the official horse farm of the Han Dynasty, the horse farm outside Luoyang City has never cultivated good breeds of horses.

Liu Yu heard that he had given many horses with excellent quality before, but each generation was worse than the other.

He really wanted to go and see where something went wrong.

Why did the original horse degenerate so severely?

As a person who has been in contact with horses since childhood, Yuwen Zhao was naturally taken to be a staff officer.
