Father, I am back to fight!

Chapter 230

Chapter 230

Emperor Liang's face was extremely gloomy.

If we raise chickens at the foot of the mountain, we might be able to protect them from attacks by wild beasts. However, if we raise chickens halfway up the mountain, once they are attacked by wild beasts, there will be no chance of survival!

However, after Emperor Liang finished speaking, Qin Yu smiled and said, "Father, you are completely worrying too much. My chicken is very safe and has almost grown up. It will lay eggs in a while!"

After saying that, Qin Yu led everyone to find an iron fence and walked in.

Then, everyone heard the sound of chickens crowing.

Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, a group of chickens quickly ran over. Looking around, the whole area was filled with chickens, at least countless of them!

Not only that, the chickens that were raised by the Ministry of Households and survived also started laying eggs. The eggs hatched into chicks that ran very fast on the ground!

"This! How is this possible! The chickens raised by the Ministry of Revenue are all dead, but why are the chickens you raised still alive?"

"I know! The prince put in chicks, and chicks have less meat, so the wild beasts didn't attack. Once the chicks grow up, the wild beasts will definitely attack this place!"

"That's right! It's true. The chicks' calls are much quieter, so they won't attract wild animals!"

......

All officials don’t believe it!

Emperor Liang looked at Qin Yu and asked in a deep voice, "Yu'er! Tell me why the chickens raised by the Ministry of Revenue were attacked by wild beasts, while the chickens you raised were safe and sound!"

"Replying to Father, the answer is actually very simple! To put it simply, it's professionals doing professional things!"

"When the Ministry of Revenue was raising chickens, although soldiers were stationed there to defend, they had no idea how to prevent attacks from wild beasts, so the beasts got the better of them!"

"However, my chicken farming is different. I hired hunters from the surrounding area to live in the mountains. Not only did I build houses for them, I also paid them a monthly stipend."

"Their duty is to guard the chicken farm. At the same time, all the prey they hunt also belongs to them. This way, the hunters will naturally do their job well!"

"And with the traps set by the hunters around the chicken farm and their professional methods, wild animals naturally have no chance of attacking the chicken farm!"

Qin Yu explained.

This!

Qin Yu’s explanation made Li Wei stunned for a moment. Is raising chickens in Dongshan so simple?

In his opinion, let alone giving silver to the hunters, all he needs to do is build houses for them, let them live there to guard the chicken farm, and give them all the hunting proceeds, and there will be a large number of hunters willing to do so!

For the first time, he felt that he was so close to the silver, yet so far away!

"This! Your Majesty! His Royal Highness had such a brilliant idea, why didn't he tell us at the time? He just wanted to watch all the chickens raised by the Ministry of Revenue die, and then reap the benefits!"

"Your Majesty! We have lost all our money. It's all Your Highness' fault. Please, Your Majesty, help us!"

The officials said one after another.

Shangguan Xiong also said coldly, "Your Majesty! It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has long known that raising chickens in Dongshan will face attacks from wild beasts, and he has thought of a way to deal with it. The reason he said it publicly was to harm the civil and military officials!"

"This behavior is extremely bad. If it is not severely punished, it will be difficult to convince the public!"

Emperor Liang frowned, and there was a hint of blame in his eyes as he looked at Qin Yu. It was indeed inappropriate for him to have such a good idea but not to speak it out actively.

"Father! This is my wish! When I first proposed raising chickens in Dongshan, I didn't really think about it. It was only after the Ministry of Revenue failed that I realized the shortcomings and tried to find a way to make up for it!"

Qin Yu said in a deep voice.
