Chương 439: Come In, Let's Talk About "Business"

In the third year of Su Ji's reign, there was a drought in the northwest, and the people were in dire straits.

She sent a few officials to manage it, but they all returned with no success.

 Su Ji had a terrible headache. She wrote letters to her best friend to rant about it.

 She gave her a suggestion.

 She said that the officials were not motivated because the rewards were not enough, so she asked Su Ji to increase the rewards.

 The next morning, Su Ji informed all the officials that whoever could solve this problem could ask for any reward from her. As long as it's in her power to do so, she would not go back on her word.

 The officials looked at each other. This reward was indeed good, but the drought in the northwest was so severe that they dared not take on the task rashly.
