Life of Being a Crown Prince in France

In France, just entered Versailles, with the identity of the Crown Prince. The only problem was that the reigning king was Louis XVI, and in two years, he'd be "snapped"... Since I couldn't rely on dear old dad and the ministers, I had to take matters into my own hands to reform France! First, make a bit of easy money to solve the financial crisis that had plagued the nation for hundreds of years. Then give a harsh lesson to those nobles harboring treacherous intentions and plotting to seize power. Next, confiscate the Church's abundant lands, acquired without lifting a finger. Industry, technology, agriculture, commerce—I will all advance side by side, I, the greatest Crown Prince in France! That year, when the little British struggled with the allied forces at his borders, I simply took over his little island. That year, my sword pointed at all of Europe, the magnificent feat Napoleon didn't accomplish, I will achieve!!!

Chapter 104: Medicine No Longer Exists

Lamark continued, "Indeed, in the northeastern regions, such as Metz, Lorraine to Belzons, I have seen people plant potatoes, and some villages there even use potatoes as their staple food. As for other places... the people of Toulouse wouldn't even use potatoes to feed pigs, claiming it would contaminate the pork."

Joseph felt somewhat disheartened. Just as he had found a way to alleviate the great famine, it seemed that French people would rather starve than eat this thing.

Moreover, considering what Lamark implied, the nobility had accepted potatoes quite early, so why hadn't they been able to influence the common people?

Using newspapers and pamphlets for widespread publicity, along with offering free tastings, might do some good.
