Wei Jue knew this was certain. It was not easy for people to accept new things, especially ignorant people.
However, this does not mean that he will stop promoting it. He never thought that a one-time promotion would achieve his goal.
This was just a test of people's attitude towards new crops.
"It doesn't matter. You can continue tomorrow and publicize the areas that have been designated earlier one by one, and then select an area with strong willingness for trial planting.
As long as the first batch of results are achieved, we won’t have to do anything else, the people will spread it among themselves.”
Xue Jiu didn't expect that the adults thought so far. He thought that the adults were just trying to solve the current problem.
"Yes, I will continue tomorrow."
Wei Jue nodded, and then Xue Jiu hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "Sir, have you reconciled with Miss Ye?"
Wei Jue glanced at him. He was really talking about something that was irrelevant.
Xue Jiu saw the adult's expression and guessed that he had said something wrong, so he shut up.
After waiting for a long time and not hearing any instructions from the adults, I left, thinking that they still hadn't reconciled.
Wei Jue thought Xue Jiu asked about this matter because he had some good way to solve it, but this taciturn guy didn't say a word for a long time, which made his face even uglier.
When I heard him ask to leave, I could only let him go with a green face.
After Xue Jiu retreated, he thought about it and realized that sometimes it was not necessary to go out of his way to solve certain problems for the adults. He was in a high position and had great power, so there would always be some things that were not satisfactory, right?
After getting over this psychological hurdle, he went back to rest with peace of mind.
That night, Wei Jue was the only one who couldn't sleep, while everyone else slept soundly without any psychological burden.
Soon, the third and fourth batches of food arrived, and the relief scope gradually spread from Huzhou City to the surrounding small cities.
However, it was relatives arranged by Wei Jue to supervise the execution of the local officials, while he himself remained in Huzhou City to command.
Xue Jiu’s promotion of his new crop has been almost completed, and he has just designated an area specifically for its cultivation.
The planting was guided by the people brought by Ye Xi, and the water for irrigation was brought back by the soldiers and civilians.
Wei Jue's purpose was to solve the food crisis problem from the root. It was impossible for the imperial court to transport grain from other places day after day.
As long as the people are willing to share some of their water with the new crops, they can survive on their own.
On this day, the weather was nice and it actually rained in Huzhou City, and everyone was very happy.
The long-awaited sweet rain has finally arrived in Huzhou City!
Almost everyone who had a bucket used it to catch the rain, and some people also held pots, basins, and even bowls.
Some people were so excited that they danced in the rain, while others knelt on the ground to thank God.
It's a carnival for everyone.
Ye Xi happened to be on the street with Jin Ling and the others. When she saw this scene, her eyes were filled with tears.
In the face of natural disasters, human beings are really insignificant, and suffering is not worth commemorating, but people cannot help but be moved by the moment of escape.
Ye Xi hopes that starting from this rain, people in every corner of the Great Zhou Dynasty will no longer be trapped by natural disasters.
Wei Jue's disaster relief mission was coming to an end. All his plans were almost completed, and now he was only concerned with trial planting new crops.
He was afraid that Ye Xi would ignore him, so he asked Xue Jiu to come over and convey his thoughts, thinking that Ye Xi would not be too resistant if she didn't see him.
Just as he expected, after hearing what Xue Jiu said, Ye Xi agreed readily.
