After continuously recording and compiling various data, Kousaka Kyosuke went to the Michinaga residence.

I originally intended to hand over the items and leave, but this time I was invited over.

The Taoist priest's residence was built in a magnificent and imposing style.

Kyosuke Kosaka arrived at the spacious and cool Watari-dono, which was lit by several ornate lanterns.

From afar, he saw the two people bathed in the soft candlelight of the lanterns.

—Fujiwara no Michinaga, Fujiwara no Michitsuna.

Their identities are that of brothers, one legitimate and one illegitimate.

The two, whose social statuses were vastly different, naturally sat together and drank.

"Master Daoist."

Kyosuke Kosaka bowed to the Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest smiled and said, "Sit down first and have a drink."

The data that Kousaka Kyosuke had painstakingly recorded over half a day was placed next to the Taoist priest.

He could clearly detect signs that the book had been browsed.

"Yes."

Without standing on ceremony, Kyosuke Kosaka sat down at a table and then drank a glass of wine.

If your boss says to drink, then you drink.

In the modern world, bosses are always trying to find ways to manipulate people and test their obedience.

Not to mention in ancient times.

As long as the orders given are not excessive, Kyosuke Kousaka will do them without question.

He had only drunk one glass of wine when he heard the sound of pages being turned.

Kousaka Kyosuke looked over and saw that it was Fujiwara Michitsuna looking through the information he had recorded.

"It is truly admirable that Lord Yizhou's maternal cousins ​​are working so hard."

As he watched and talked, one could hear the admiration and respect in Kousaka Kyosuke's voice.

Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't tell whether it was true or false.

But one thing is certain.

High-ranking integrity would definitely not be happy to be praised like this.

"Aren't you supposed to be resting at home?" the Taoist priest asked casually after finishing his drink.

Kousaka Kyosuke replied:

"It wasn't all a rest period. The newly established manor needed some people, and we discovered this while looking for them."

Having grown accustomed to communicating with the Taoist priest, Kyosuke Kosaka answered whatever came to mind.

The Taoist priest chuckled twice.

He found this vassal to be truly interesting.

"Although the content is a bit vulgar, if it succeeds, it will make him just as powerful as me. Do you have any ideas?"

Kyosuke Kosaka immediately bowed his head in greeting.

"Master Dao is a strategist with unparalleled wisdom and ingenuity; how could I, a mere mediocre and reckless man, presume to offer any advice?"

Want to come up with an idea?

He's just not mentally sound.

This is not because he underestimates himself.

Instead, they already knew their own limitations!

“You,” the Taoist priest said leisurely, “are too boring. Does the Taoist Master have any suggestions?”

Fujiwara no Michitsuna gently put down the book in his hand and smiled.

"Although it is filthy, if it is true, then we must act with caution."

"Kyosuke, your agricultural book must contain more detailed knowledge than anyone else knows, right?"

Using filth and grime as fertilizer?

He had heard of it before, but he didn't pay much attention to it because he thought it was dirty.

What about now?

Many years have passed, and Fujiwara no Michitsuna has come to understand how precious the books in his hands are.

The premise is that it is true.

"This is probably much more detailed than anyone else knows."

"When I was secretly investigating just now, I found that many people only know some basic agricultural knowledge."

Kousaka Kyosuke said.

Of course he knew what was going on!

Since the time traveler is a time traveler...

How can we not change the world?

Anyone who has read a little bit of books knows the basics of fertilizers.

Regrettably.

These people are probably a million miles behind Shizuko, who is clearly a "veteran" expert.

Kyosuke Kousaka is certain.

Shizuko would definitely be considered a "farm girl" in modern times!

He even knows a lot about agricultural tools and machinery.

She's definitely a leading lady!

Naturally, it cannot be ruled out that there may be agricultural experts even more capable than Shizuko.

The problem is, we have to see what the current situation is.

Anyone with a basic understanding of history knows that going against the most famous "strongest male protagonist in palace intrigue" will never end well.

Even if there's a one in ten thousand chance that it actually happens.

Kyosuke Kosaka felt that he trusted the Taoist priest to handle the situation better.

“About,” Fujiwara Michitsuna sensed the uncertainty in Kousaka Kyosuke’s voice and pondered, “It’s quite surprising that some commoners know such unusual agricultural knowledge…”

As he spoke slowly, Fujiwara no Michitsuna was still quite astonished.

He never imagined that there could be such extraordinary people among the common people.

This reminded him of a few months ago when there were quite a few people behaving strangely and eccentrically.

It seems that we should occasionally look down.

"Gather intelligence first and keep an eye on their movements," the Taoist priest instructed with a smile.

Fujiwara nods in agreement.

Kyosuke Kousaka remained silent, serving as a backdrop.

Afterwards, Kyosuke Kosaka drank with the monk and Michinaga.

Answer honestly when asked questions.

After finishing his drink and leaving the Taoist priest's residence, Kyosuke Kosaka went straight to sleep.

It was late at night, and the other couples were all asleep.

He certainly wouldn't disturb someone's sweet dreams.

Day 173 of crossing

Two quarters past the hour of Mao (5-7 AM).

Just as Kousaka Kyosuke, who had just helped Fumino with poverty alleviation, was about to continue to Fuji Shikibu's room...

A maid came to report.

The visitor was Fujiwara no Michitsuna.

When they met at the ferry hall after leaving the sleeping quarters, Kousaka Kyosuke looked resentful.

Inequality between rich and poor, excessive wealth gap, lack of mutual support between the rich and poor...

These things can cause a lot of resentment.

Fujiwara Michitsuna seemed oblivious to Kousaka Kyosuke's displeasure, his face beaming with interest.

“Your agricultural book is excellent. Last night I had someone investigate again and found that the crops grown on land privately cultivated by many lowly people are indeed much better than those grown on ordinary fertile land.”

Kousaka Kyosuke nodded numbly.
