Chapter 57 Maybe This Is the Truth

System? What does that mean?
Emperor Jingxuan frowned and looked at the ministers below.

Several people pondered the matter thoughtfully, then shook their heads after a while. "I don't understand its meaning. I guess this word was coined later, so I really don't know what it means now."

Emperor Jingxuan was a little annoyed. Why did they leave? He looked at the two little brats in the skylight who were already using tools to dismantle the car, and his teeth began to itch.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. He could only look away, rub his forehead with his hand, and said to everyone, "Let's go to the front hall."

After all the ministers had arrived, Emperor Jingxuan asked, "My dear ministers, what are your thoughts on what was just said on the celestial tent?"

"Your Majesty, since the people on the sky curtain are our descendants, the things they are using now must be manufacturable. I implore Your Majesty to summon talented people from all over the world to jointly discuss the manufacture of the tools on the sky curtain." These are the words of Yu Kangsheng, the Minister of Works.

He no longer hid and took two steps forward excitedly. "Some things are really useful. For example, if Daqi could have a flat road, it would be very convenient for traveling and transporting goods. Also, other things may be complicated, but the faucet from the other day has already been made by a craftsman from the Ministry of Industry."

The structure of a faucet is not as complicated as that of a car sweeper or washing machine. After everyone brainstormed and discussed for an hour, we came up with an idea. After some modifications, we now have a prototype.

At this moment, the two children on the screen were dismantling the car. He had just instructed his subordinates not to miss any details and to see how the car was made. If they knew how to do it, they would also have a magical device like this that could travel a thousand miles a day.

Just thinking about it, Yu Kangsheng's face flushed with excitement. There were so many good things on the sky.

"Your Majesty, think of the elevator that can take people up and down the stairs in an instant, think of the door lock that can be opened with just a finger without a key, think of the light that is as bright as day. These are all good things."

Emperor Jingxuan's heart was burning with excitement after hearing what he said, wasn't it? He was very envious of all these.

He nodded, but before he could approve, the Minister of Agriculture spoke first, "Your Majesty, these are external things, not urgent. The most urgent matter is the sweet potatoes that yield ten thousand catties per mu. If Daqi could have such a rich harvest of grain, it would be a blessing for Your Majesty, the people, and Daqi."

The Minister of Revenue quickly echoed, "I also think that finding those sweet potatoes is the top priority right now. Last year, a severe drought struck Jiangbei, leaving the people with nothing to harvest and homeless. Your Majesty, with compassion, provided disaster relief and exempted them from taxes for two years. But earlier this year, an earthquake struck southern Shanxi, and the court also exempted taxes and grain in the affected areas, dispatching emergency supplies. Even so, large numbers of people are still left without food and have become refugees. The treasury is now empty, and if we don't find ways to make money, the Ministry of Revenue will be unable to allocate funds. Now that we know of a grain crop that yields 10,000 kilograms per mu, it would be a blessing for us, the Great Qi, if we could find it."

Yu Kangsheng was somewhat displeased. "Building roads is also a major undertaking that benefits both the country and the people. If the roads are clear, it will be much easier to transport goods from the south to the north, which will also generate revenue for the national treasury. Besides, the poster says that sweet potatoes were introduced during the Ming Dynasty. We don't even have a single one here, and we can't just imagine them. The poster refuses to reveal any more clues, so the claim of a 10,000-jin yield per mu is just empty talk."

The Minister of Revenue said, "The national treasury is out of money, and Lord Yu still wants to build a road? Doesn't building a road require money? You also said that goods from the south can be transported to the north, but that requires all the roads from south to north to be built. Where will so much money come from? You can't cut the expenses of the soldiers in the Ministry of War."

Good man, with just one sentence, the Ministry of War and the generals who were originally indifferent and just watching the joke were dragged into the water.

"Your Majesty, I think finding sweet potatoes is the most important thing."

"Your Majesty, although the sky curtain hasn't revealed where the sweet potato is, I think it must be there now. As long as we send more people to search everywhere, we will definitely find it. Everyone in Daqi has seen the sky curtain and knows what the sweet potato looks like, so it will be much easier to find it."

"I second the proposal."

The ministers were clamoring, and Emperor Jingxuan was in a state of great headache. Today's sky curtain finally revealed a lot more information, but again, this clue was only half, which was very sad.

Jinfeng Villa.

Jian Yunsang and the other two waited until the two children had gone far away before they spoke of Ah Shan with serious expressions.

"Is what Chao Chao is talking about a system?"

In today's information-rich world, even someone like He Nanzhou, who rarely uses his phone, has become familiar with the concept of cyberpunk, artificial intelligence, and the promise of future technology after watching a few sci-fi movies. Furthermore, the He family happens to have talented individuals in this field. Even Song Zhen has some idea of ​​what a system is.

Therefore, after doubting the fact that Chao Chao traveled back to ancient times, it is not impossible for another system to come up.

However, the thought of this possibility made them even more uneasy.

"Chao Chao said that after Ah Shan sent her back, she never showed up again." Jian Yunsang said, "It needs to accumulate energy to send Chao Chao back, so after it sent her back, does that mean it ran out of energy and shut down?"

He Nanzhou nodded, "It's very likely. It said that it needs to do good deeds every day to accumulate energy. At least this shows that it doesn't have malicious intentions."

"When Chao Chao disappeared, was it also it that sent him away?" Song Zhen clenched her hands, her voice trembling. "Why did it send Chao Chao away instead of others? Will it send Chao Chao away again in the future?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them fell silent, their bodies became tense, and a low pressure emanated from their bodies.

This is exactly what He Nanzhou and Jian Yunsang are worried about.

Yes, this system comes and goes without any warning. Who knows what its purpose is and what it will do?

He Nanzhou took a deep breath. "Actually, if you think positively, it might have good intentions towards Chao Chao. Two years ago, if it hadn't suddenly sent Chao Chao away, Chao Chao's life would have been in great danger under those circumstances."

Song Zhen asked, "Then why did you send him back after two years? Chao Chao went to that Shangliu Village and suffered so much."

Jian Yunsang guessed, "Perhaps, the energy is exhausted?"

The three of them fell silent again. They actually felt that this might be the truth.

"What should we do now?" Song Zhen looked worriedly at Chao Chao who was dismantling a car enthusiastically not far away.
