"Okay, come with me. Let's take a car to the outside of the city and deliver that thing there."
Jia Shangshu is really curious and really hopes that their Ministry of Industry can develop fertilizers to increase grain production. If they can really develop high-yielding crops, then the harvest of the fields under their jurisdiction can be doubled.
Although Zhitian has increased its output and has to distribute part of it to various officials, the part that is handed over to the national treasury has also increased, and that is also the revenue created by their Ministry of Industry.
The more Jia Shangshu thought about it, the more beautiful it became. They managed a large part of the farmland. After the New Year, spring would begin soon. This new fertilizer must be used at the beginning of spring.
Well, we can’t use them all. We still have to find some land for experiments, so let’s use his job field!
Who asked him to be the Minister of the Ministry of Industry? For such a risky thing, let's use his fields for experiments.
Mr. Jia thought selflessly.
So Tang Zhiling followed Jia Shangshu and hurried out the door.
All the officials in the Ministry of Works stared at the two men leaving together.
The minister, Li Tai, changed his eyes. He was Jia Shangshu's confidant and hurriedly chased him out.
Guan Qinghai stood among the officials and watched Tang Zhiling leave with the two big shots from the Ministry of Industry. He was extremely glad that he did not stumble Tang Zhiling and get rid of him.
Otherwise, he might really hit the iron plate. Maybe Mr. Xiao Tang would finish playing with himself before he left.
After the three people left, Gan Wei, the minister of Sinong Temple, narrowed his eyes and wondered what the old man Jia was doing.
The Yu Dynasty still inherited some laws from the Tang Dynasty. Correspondingly, the emperor paid more attention to the three provinces and six ministries, and the rights of the nine temples were dispersed.
Sinong Temple is in charge of more royal affairs. For example, it used to be the Forestry Department, but now it is only responsible for the management of the royal gardens, planting fruits and vegetables to supply sacrifices to the court, and responsible for storing ice in winter. These are just a few responsibilities.
Sinong Temple was divided into many responsibilities by the Ministry of Works, and now the Yubu Department and the Shanglin Department are somewhat similar.
However, the Ministry of Industry has more power under its jurisdiction. Although the royal family also controls a lot, it is all the emperor's own private treasury. How can it be compared with the entire country.
Therefore, Lord Gan of Sinong Temple still attaches great importance to the actions of the Ministry of Industry.
The following people listened to what the emperor said at the great meeting. There were also many departments that took action to find a solution to the dilemma, or wanted to claim credit.
"Send someone to inquire about Jia Shangshu's movements."
"Yes, sir!"
Tang Zhiling sat awkwardly in the carriage, with Jia Shangshu and Li Shilang sitting opposite. Li Shilang also read the article Tang Zhiling sent.
He was also confused and didn't understand anything, but he didn't ask because he was afraid that he would appear uneducated.
Tang Zhiling was also struggling a little in his heart, thinking about whether to invite Shen Fei over, mainly because he didn't understand those things.
The carriage moved very quickly and soon arrived at the research institute of the Ministry of Industry. This place not only belongs to the Ministry of Industry, but also has people from Taichang Temple, Taipu Temple, Sinong Temple, and Taifu Temple.
After all, those who can work in the imperial city must be of a higher grade.
Craftsmen and petty officials in some departments are here, and they are mainly responsible for research and development and experiments.
Therefore, when Jia Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry came here, he still attracted the attention of many people.
After all, it is still rare for high-ranking officials to come here.
Tang Zhiling would come here usually and was no stranger to this place. He was a seventh-grade official and came here often.
It's just that when he came here in the past, he only dealt with Shulingshi and Zhanggu under his command, and he really rarely interacted with those powerful craftsmen from the Ministry of Works.
The arrival of Jia Shangshu naturally attracted attention, so some officials came out one after another to see Jia Shangshu.
At this time, Jia Shangshu was a little embarrassed, who should he invite to see these strange raw materials.
In the end, there was no choice but to call all the workers from all departments.
Zhu Bowen of Baigongfang, who is very prestigious in the Ministry of Industry, also came. He stood at the front and said, "I have seen the Lord Shangshu."
Jia Shangshu sat directly at the top and said: "I came here today just to show you something. You can study it and see if anyone can study it."
Everyone, look at me and I look at you. I don’t know what it is that can make Master Shangshu pay so much attention to it.
At this time, there was no such thing as chemistry, and no one in the Yu Dynasty had heard of it. They couldn't understand the information provided by Shen Fei.
Seeing that no one knew him, Jia Shangshu was a little embarrassed, so he looked at the old gentlemen and asked, "Can you understand it?"
Old man Zhu was still very meticulous and carefully studied the raw materials that Shen Fei brought over.
The old men really looked at it carefully, "I know this limestone, as well as hydrated lime, alum, quartz stone, etc. Our Ministry of Industry also has them. I have seen all of them, but I don't know the rest."
The old men are fairly well-informed and know a lot of things.
Jia Shangshu looked at the old men eagerly, "Boss, are you worthy of producing this fertilizer?"
The old men shook their heads, "There are many people who can't understand it, and it's difficult to develop it. I wonder, Sir, if you can bring over the person who provided the recipe."
Jia Shangshu looked directly at Tang Zhiling, "Tang Yuanwailang, I don't know if it is convenient."
Everyone in the room looked at Tang Zhiling.
Tang Zhiling: "......"
Tang Zhiling was not sure, but considering Shen Fei's temperament that loves to join in the fun, she should be willing!
