When the economy improved, the country would naturally become rich.

Since the entire country had become rich, how could there be a lack of soldiers and horses?

Lin Yuelan gave many suggestions regarding the business sector. One of them was to pay attention to the status of merchants. Secondly, merchants had to pay business taxes. Lastly, merchants could also take the imperial examination.

In the past, merchants would also pay taxes, but it was much lighter than the agricultural tax. It was like the difference between a thousand taels of silver and a tael of silver.

Therefore, although the status of merchants was lower than that of farmers, they were better off. Other than the fact that merchants could not pursue official careers, they could still enjoy glory and wealth.

On the contrary, the status of farmers was higher than that of merchants. However, due to the heavy taxes on agriculture, although they planted a lot of farmland, sometimes they could not even solve the issue of providing for food and clothing. Their lives were getting worse and worse.

Therefore, the only way for farmers to get rid of poverty and become rich was to enter the official career and enjoy glory and wealth.

However, for farmers, it was extremely difficult to produce a scholar. They might need the entire family or even the entire clan to nurture them. There might not be much hope. Of course, even if a village produced a scholar, it was still the honour of the entire village. This led to the poverty of many villages.

In response to such a situation, Lin Yuelan raised the drawbacks to the emperor and suggested improvements.

Fortunately, Emperor Yuwen Longyan fully trusted Lin Yuelan. As long as it was beneficial to the foundation of the country, he would fully support it!

Time was the best examiner.

In the past two years, the country had been improving day by day.

Yuwen Longyan, the old emperor, was very pleased.

However, even though the old emperor wanted to give Lin Yuelan more credit, Lin Yuelan rejected him.

She was already the most honourable princess of the country and did not need any more credit.

Otherwise, she would be suspected of being too powerful.

It would be fine if the emperor were still around, but what if the monarch was changed? Would he be able to tolerate a person who had made great contributions and threatened the emperor in terms of influence?

For the sake of unnecessary trouble in the future, Lin Yuelan decisively rejected these credits.

Only a few people knew that Lin Yuelan had contributed greatly to the rapid development of the Longyan Kingdom in two years.

Speaking of which, Little Green was very angry when it saw Little Black’s disdainful gaze and how it slid away leisurely.

Then, when he saw the big cat beside him, he immediately kicked its body as if he was venting his anger and scolded,

“Stinky big cat! You lazy worm, 1 told you to catch a big rat, but you didn’t do anything. Now, you’ve been looked down upon by Little Black!”

When Big Cat heard Little Green’s words, it rolled its green eyes and meowed a few times in dissatisfaction.

It seemed to be protesting.” You were the one who didn’t let me catch the big rat. Now you’re blaming me? Also, Little Black isn’t looking down on me, and he’s clearly looking down on you!’

However, no matter how big the cat’s opinion was, it did not dare to voice it.

One had to know that in Taoyuan Village, everyone, from the big people to the small insects and grass, regarded Little Green as their boss.

Other than the masters, no one in Taoyuan Village knew that Little Green could communicate with animals and plants.

Therefore, even if they were bullied by Boss Little Green, they could not seek justice.

This was because the only person who could understand them was the biggest bully. As a result, they were punished even more severely.

This was really unreasonable.

Jiang Zhennan couldn’t stand it anymore. He said disdainfully,” You only know how to bully these poor animals! ”

Little Green retorted fiercely,” Hmph. Do you want me to bully people then?” Lin Yuelan was speechless. Only Little Green could bully animals so openly and righteously.

Jiang Zhennan was speechless.

Lin Yuelan listened from the side and shook her head. She then smiled and said,” That’s enough, Little Green. Give me some face and let the poor big cat off this once, alright?”

The big cat was instantly extremely grateful to its owner. Its pair of cat eyes glowed with a green light, and the green light was even more dazzling.

Little Green looked at it and kicked it again. Then, ]he said fiercely,” Since Big Sister is pleading for you, I’ll let you off today. Get lost!”

The big cat meowed at the three of them and left gratefully.

Lin Yuelan looked at Little Green and said,” You child, did you forget something today? You made your sister and brother-in-law come look for you.”

Little Green was a little confused. He shook his head and said,” What exactly is it, Sister? I can’t remember!”

Lin Yuelan smiled and said,” Today is Brother Mingqings day of celebration for passing the Quren exam!”

Little Green exclaimed,” Oh, Sister, 1 forgot!’ “Alright, let’s go!” said Jiang Zhennan..
