Chapter 122 New Discoveries Every Time
First they dismissed the slaves, then packed up their belongings. As for the rest, they took what could be taken away, and gave away what could not be taken away.
In less than three days, the entire Wei family was clean.
Standing at the gate of the capital, Wei Pengchun inexplicably thought of Lord Li next door. It seemed that he was also called away on such a night, and all the things in the house were packed up.
But Lord Li was much luckier than him, he just moved to a new house and still lived in the capital, while he was going to take his whole family to another place.
Could it be that the person living next door really is Wei Qichen?
This thought flashed through Wei Pengchun's mind, but he quickly retreated. He watched Wei Qichen grow up and knew his character. If he really had such ability, the Wei family would not have ended up in this situation.
The towering city gate is like a natural moat. Inside the city are people living in luxury, splendor and wealth, while outside the city is just dirt and ordinary people.
Once we get out of the city, it will be difficult to get back in.

Now that the Wei family is gone, it’s time to reward that little girl!
Hua Xiaoxian was touching the two pots of tender green onions in the imperial study. The one on the left was obviously much larger than the one on the right. This was all thanks to the fertilizer.
After thinking for a moment, Hua Xiaoxian picked up a pen and wrote several titles on paper. He then crossed out a few, deleted and reduced a few, and finally kept a few. He asked his subordinates to pack them up and send them to Yaoguang.
Ask her which one she likes and give her that one.
The emperor had a very good impression of Yaoguang, mainly because she was very useful. Since he could not allow Yaoguang to attend the court, nor could he allow her to be appointed as a marquis or a prime minister, he could only give her the greatest freedom in these areas to show the emperor's favor.
Yaoguang knew the news that the Wei family was on the journey, but Wei Qichen didn't know. He was still in his room reading the farming book given by Yaoguang, preparing to teach it to his students in the future.
Seeing the people from the palace, Yaoguang thought for a moment and asked, "Can I not do it?"
Ah? No reward?
The eunuchs and ministers sent by the emperor were all incredulous when they heard this. There had never been anyone in this world who dared to refuse a reward from His Majesty. This was tantamount to disobeying the Emperor's order!
Although this reward was an imperial decree, no one could refuse the imperial award.
So the minister next to her advised, "Young lady, you'd better accept it. This is a reward from His Majesty."
"What's so good about this reward? Isn't it just a meal? Didn't you just take some things?" Yaoguang was puzzled.
Although she knew that the emperor was the most powerful person here, in Yaoguang's opinion, the rewards he gave her were useless.
Some people can help with the work, but it's just the most basic stuff that she can do on her own.
Some land and gold, silver and jade. The outside is all land, but it still has no owner. Although gold, silver and jade have the function of purchasing, they are still minerals in essence.
She is no longer short of money.
In Yaoguang's opinion, the things she made were really not something particularly valuable or amazing.
Farming is not fully automated and still requires manual labor. Even fertilizers and pesticides are very basic and have not been improved.
She couldn't even make a smart greenhouse suitable for growing crops. Unlike the high-quality crop varieties described in the main brain's information, they could grow on their own wherever they were thrown. Even a stone could survive as long as there was water, and it was not afraid of pests and had extremely high yields.
So in Yaoguang's opinion, these rewards are completely unnecessary, and she will not be happy about it.
Perhaps because he saw Yaoguang's serious look, the minister knew Yaoguang's achievements and said tactfully, "Miss, why don't you go and tell His Majesty in person?"
Now the reward has not been given yet, as long as she can persuade His Majesty to take back the reward. No, can he really be so narrow-minded?
The little girl in front of me has contributed so much to the country and the people, how can I not want a penny?
"Miss, have you ever thought about asking for something else? If you don't want this title, you can ask His Majesty for other things, or if your family needs anything else?" the official tried his best to suggest.
The only thing he did was to tell Yaoguang directly, ask for an imperial edict from the elders in his family, and then ask for a posthumous title from all his ancestors.
With such achievements, it is easy to bring honor to the family!
Your Majesty will be happier after hearing this.
Yaoguang immediately said: "Can you give the reward to my uncle? He really needs it. He has learned how to farm now, so just give him the land."
Yaoguang spoke casually, but to the official's ears it sounded something else.
"Is there anyone in your family who is good at farming?"
"My uncle." Yaoguang pushed Wei Qichen out again.
So Wei Qichen was pulled out and stood among the group of people.
When Wei Qichen saw the adult in official uniform and the eunuch from the palace, he first greeted them and then set his eyes on Yaoguang.
It seemed as if he was asking her with his eyes, what's going on? Why did such a person come to the house?
"He's my younger uncle. He has read agricultural books and is learning how to farm. He has many students from farming families outside the city. In order for those students to have enough food to eat, he plans to teach them how to farm after he finishes his studies..." Yaoguang briefly explained Wei Qichen's ideal at the moment.
Teaching students requires money, and the money in the reward is very suitable for Wei Qichen. Farming requires a large piece of farmland, and the fields in the reward are also suitable for Wei Qichen.
There is no one more suitable than him in this yard!
The official already looked at Yaoguang with admiration, and he was even more pleased when he looked at Wei Qichen.
Before Wei Qichen understood the current situation, the adult asked him a few questions. Have you ever been to school? Have you ever taken the imperial examination? Why did you resign? What are you doing now?
Wei Qichen spoke in a proper manner, and it was exactly as Yaoguang said.
The adult then asked Wei Qichen where he had read the agricultural book.
"I've been studying the techniques of harvesting this kind of wheat recently, but it's just theory talk. I haven't even gone to the fields yet, let alone taught students." Wei Qi Chen said ashamedly, having a bad feeling in his heart.
Why did this adult ask him what he had learned about farming? What did Yaoguang do?
The minister's eyes lit up immediately, "I will report this matter to His Majesty, and it will be left to His Majesty to decide." He heard the first half of the sentence and chose to ignore the rest. After all, the girl also said that she knew nothing.
Hua Changrui brought a lot of agricultural books from Yaoguang. All of the books were about growing vegetables, fruits and melons, and there was no mention of growing grains.
So the people in the palace read it and felt that although the agricultural book was exquisite, it was not that useful.
After all, most people nowadays live on wild vegetables. Working in the fields to grow rice and wheat seedlings is hard enough, and few people would grow vegetables specifically for eating.
So although agricultural books are important, they are nothing compared to pesticides and fertilizers.
Wei Qichen was reading a special version given by Yaoguang, a textbook written based on the main crops, to ensure a good harvest.
But if Yaoguang said that Wei Qichen could grow wheat, that would be different! That was the staple food in the land and the foundation of the world. If his ability was like that of the little girl in front of him...
The minister's face lit up as he thought about these things!
This house is a treasure trove, there are new surprises every time I come here!
