Mind reading, I used the concubine system to become the empress

Lin Shu blinked his big eyes and asked curiously: "How did you recognize me?"

The man in blue smiled slightly.

"The restaurant that Her Royal Highness opened in Yanjing is of a grand scale. It is obvious at a glance that it is not something that an ordinary person could do."

"and……"

The man paused and looked over the glassware displayed in the private room.

"Plus, there are so many colored glaze products in this room. I'm sure there must be royal craftsmanship behind them. In the whole of Dayan, apart from the imperial palace, who else can have such a handicraft?"

Lin Shu suddenly understood.

[It turned out that the unusual glassware betrayed her. This guy is quite smart. ]

"Since the princess's doubts have been answered by me."

"I wonder if the princess is willing to agree to my request."

Lin Shu rolled his eyes and smiled cutely.

"Then you have to first tell me why you want to reclaim the wild land?"

Lin Shu was a little puzzled. This guy didn't seem to be short of money. Why did he leave a good place to go and instead go to that wild place?

The man in blue was silent for a moment before he spoke slowly.

"Although that place is extremely desolate and unsuitable for human habitation, it is where our ancestors lived."

"The older generation in my family don't want to leave. I hope to develop that place so that they can enjoy their old age."

Lin Shu listened carefully and felt more favorable towards the man in blue.

[I didn't expect this person to be so friendly. ]

[But this is not enough for my father and I to spend a lot of effort to help him. ]

"The conditions you offer are not enough. You should know that the manpower and material resources required for land reclamation are an extremely exaggerated number."

"What you can give me is not enough to impress me. In my opinion, this is just a losing deal."

The man in green said, "I can provide a lot of money."

"Also, Your Highness, why not listen to what I have to say about that wild land before you make a decision."

Lin Shu was a little surprised. Why was this guy so confident? Could there be some treasure in that place?

But it won’t hurt to listen, just in case there really is a treasure.

Lin Shu listened to the man in blue clothes' story just to kill time.

The more Lin Shu listened, the more familiar it sounded.

[Overgrown with bushes, everywhere with swamps, raging snow and wind, and herds of wild beasts? ]

[Could it be that the soil is darker in color, loose in geology, and has suitable humidity? ]

[If the humidity and precipitation are also suitable, wow, isn't this a replica of the Great Northern Wilderness? ]

[If it really is the Great Northern Wilderness, that would be very interesting].

[Maybe it can be transformed into a second Beida Granary. If so, the people of Dayan will no longer have to worry about having no food to eat.]

Lin Shu was excited in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface.

"You can talk about it later."

Lin Shu interrupted the man in blue and said to the eunuch Deli beside him: "De Xiaoli, go and bring the heads of the farmers and the relevant personnel of the Ministry of Revenue to my father."

"Remember to inform my father first."

Lin Shu then looked at the man in blue and asked, "What's your name?"

"You won't have a chance to regret it now!"

"Come back to the palace with me now, and I'll tell the professionals about it then."

"Don't even think about making up stories. The Ministry of Revenue and the farmers are not pushovers."

The man in blue bowed and said, "I am Qiu Fan. Thank you, Princess, for introducing me to you."

Lin Shu waved his hand, "It's too early to thank you now. You can thank me after the matter is settled."

Qiu Fan's car followed Lin Shu's carriage and drove towards the palace.

Lin Shu tugged at Murong Xun's sleeve, his eyes full of excitement.

"Murong! Do you think what he said is true?"

"Have you ever heard of the place he's talking about?"

Murong Xun rubbed Lin Shu's head and said, "The world is vast, and I haven't been to every place."

"Once we meet the farmers and the Ministry of Revenue, everything will become clear."

When Lin Shu brought Qiu Fan to the imperial study, the farmers' leaders and relevant personnel from the Ministry of Households were already in place.

Even Mencius came in person.

As soon as Qiu Fan entered the room, he was stared at by these people.

Qiu Fan was not at all flustered. He bowed and started talking freely.

After he finished speaking, the farmer's leader's eyes flickered and his joy was evident in his words.

"I know the place you're talking about."

"It's a no-man's land, and bandits often roam there, so anyone can go there to rob them."

“That’s why we farmers don’t have many opportunities to practice there.”

"If it is really as you said, this is a blessing for us, Great Yan."

Meng Zidu pondered for a moment, "It is at the junction of three countries. Since it is a wild land, its ownership is not clear."

“If it is really suitable for planting, I’m afraid we need to completely take over that piece of land first.”

The emperor's eyes were full of excitement. "Send someone to investigate first. If it is really suitable, not only will we be able to take over this piece of land, but we will also be able to expand outwards without any problems."

"You have to know how many people and soldiers can be fed if that piece of land is really suitable for planting."

"Besides, this is a long-term benefit, so it's not a loss no matter how you calculate it."

The emperor looked at Qiu Fan and said, "Why didn't you report this good place earlier?"

Qiu Fan smiled bitterly, "I reported it, but unfortunately there was no news in the end."

"I can only wait until I grow stronger and have a certain say, then I will have the opportunity to stand beside the princess."

Lin Shu was a little puzzled. "Now that you have money, haven't you negotiated with the local officials?"

"They don't want to do it?"

Qiu Fan shook his head helplessly, "The more you do, the more mistakes you make. The less you do, the fewer mistakes you make."

"How could they be willing to spend so much effort to gamble on whether a piece of wild land will yield any rewards in the future?"

Lin Shu sighed softly, "But that's true. Even if they are willing, they don't have that much manpower and material resources."

"Go back and wait for news. Once the Ministry of Revenue and the farmers have checked, we can make plans."

After Qiu Fan left, the emperor looked at the people below him.

"The pace of trade must be accelerated if it is really suitable for planting."

“It’s going to take a lot of money.”

"We also need to make the people willing to go there and open up wasteland."

"Tax rate cuts in the first few years are inevitable. I'm afraid that in those years, there will only be investment but no gains."

Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't help but feel a little bald.

Meng Zidu also had a pale face. As the Minister of Revenue, he was under a lot of pressure.

He couldn't help but turn his head and look at Lin Shu, maybe Lin Shu could have some good idea.

Lin Shu had already consciously opened the system mall.

[Beauty Pill! It's decided to be you! ]

[This cosmetics money must be easy to make! 】

Lin Shu couldn't stay any longer at this moment, so he pulled Murong Xun and ran out.

He only had time to turn around and shout to the emperor.

"Dad, don't look for me these days. I want to stay with Shen Xi."

The emperor was speechless for a moment. This girl was so reckless that she would do whatever she thought of immediately.

There really was no delay at all.

I don’t know what she and Shen Xi are going to make the beauty pill look like.
