Chapter 73



73: Zhu Yuanzhang: With these potatoes, we can leave our name in history!

In the next few dozen days, apart from dealing with state affairs, Zhu Yuanzhang basically spent the rest of his time wandering around rice and that bit of land.

It is already March, and after the rice seeds have been soaked and nursed, they have been transplanted and sown.

As for last year's potatoes, ten potatoes were harvested before the year.

These ten potato seedlings also represent Zhu Yuanzhang's hope.

Now these potatoes have been planted for almost a month, and green seedlings have grown.

Even Zhu Biao gradually became interested in rice and potatoes during this period!

Mainly because he didn't expect that the potato planted by his father would actually bear so many fruits, which could increase the yield nearly ten times!

He had never heard of such a high-yielding crop!

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang later produced rice that could be sown for two seasons, which also made him doubt whether everything his father said before was true?

"Biao'er is here? During this time, your body looks much stronger. Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Seeing the prince appearing next to him, Zhu Yuanzhang asked with concern.

He was still worried about the prince Zhu Biao.

After all, it was said in the dream that after Zhu Biao contracted the cold, he died on April 25, the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu. Wu died of illness!

It’s already March!

The time is getting closer, but there is no problem with Zhu Biao’s physical condition. While Zhu Yuanzhang breathed a sigh of relief, he also did not dare to take anything lightly! The decision he made was right.

He didn't let Zhu Biao go on a tour to the west and brought him back in time. He also kept him recuperating!

It seemed that he had saved Zhu Biao from death. He was successfully brought back!

When he looks back, he will deduce the life of Prince Zhu Biao after he was changed, so that he can rest assured!

"Thank you for your concern, father. I feel that my body and bones are completely fine and my old headache has not recurred recently!"

Zhu Biao sighed softly, knowing that his father would definitely not be able to overcome the threshold of that dream. He was frightened by the dream!

In fact, as the date of April 25th got closer and closer, Zhu Biao's heart was I am also scared!

After all, I have definitely said that I may die on that day. Even if I don’t believe it, I will inevitably worry about gains and losses!

But this is early March, and I am like a normal person. It seems that my father’s dream is here. , it will not come true!

But he is not sure now!

After all, after more than half a year of conditioning, he does feel that his body and bones are much better than before, and he seems to be back to the spirit of his twenties..

But what would happen if he insisted on going to Xi'an and came back? Now he couldn't tell!

Could he still doubt that his father's words were unfounded?

And the potatoes and the plump rice were also eaten by his father ? The emperor took it out, and after looking at it, he concluded that it was definitely not a mortal thing! So even if he didn't believe everything Zhu Yuanzhang said before, he believed most of it now! It's all related to the well-being of the people of the Ming Dynasty. He is naturally very concerned about the things that can make the people of the Ming Dynasty eat well!

So during this period, in addition to Zhu Yuanzhang, he will also come here from time to time, just like a potato seedling! And the growth of rice!

Nowadays, a special area has been opened in this imperial garden, and no one else can get close to it.

In fact, this kind of thing happened to Zhu Yuanzhang when Queen Ma was still there. , this old couple just wanted to farm and raise some chickens, ducks and geese in the palace!

After all, they had done this kind of thing in Zhu Yuanzhang's palace when he was still King of Wu! , even after becoming an emperor and empress, some habits still cannot be changed!

"Ah That's good. There is also news from the third child, and his body and bones are much better than before."

"We are not too worried about the second child. We have already changed his fiefdom, and what happened in the dream will probably not happen!"

"We are old, and we really can’t bear the matter of white-haired people giving away black-haired people!"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but let out a long sigh. What he was most troubled about before was the future fate of these three sons.

Now everything is developing in the best direction, which makes him feel at ease a lot.

"Father, these rice and potatoes can be widely sown in a few years, and they will definitely solve the food problem of the people of Ming Dynasty."

"But you said before that Laojiu also has such a system. Is it possible that he will also have rice and potatoes?"

Zhu Biao suddenly changed the subject and reminded.

In fact, after believing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he also began to guess whether Lao Jiu really had a system as Zhu Yuanzhang said?

And this salt-making technology and textile technology, Was it all caused by this system?

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was also shocked.

Yes!

There is a system there, and there are two of them! What about

Lao Jiu?

Here, Zhu Yuanzhang is not feeling well!

He had previously thought about redeeming the salt-making technique, but before he could save enough national luck points to redeem it, Lao Jiu had already figured out the salt-making technique!

He originally expected to rely on this salt-making technique to leave a mark on his political achievements and spread it throughout history!

But he didn't expect that he would be cut off by Lao Jiu halfway through!

Then he put his hope in potatoes. Relying on this potato, he, Zhu Yuanzhang, can also make outstanding political achievements and pass them down into history!

This time... after being reminded by Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang lost his mind!

"Biao'er, if Lao Jiu really has a system, what do you think?"

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked curiously.

Zhu Biao had been protecting his younger brother Lao Jiu before, but now he knows that Lao Jiu also has such a thing as a system, what will he think?

He would like to see, Will Zhu Biao's view of Lao Jiu change?

"Father, frankly speaking, I have really thought about this issue!"

"In fact, I felt relieved when I thought that my father also had such a system!"

Zhu Biao suddenly laughed.

He naturally knew what his father meant by asking this.

If his father thought that because Lao Jiu had a system, his father thought that he would change his view of Lao Jiu, then his father underestimated himself too much!

"Um? How did you say this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this.

"Whether it is Lao Jiu or Father, you are all using this system to do good things that benefit the country and the people. As long as it's a good thing, doesn't this system apply to everyone the same?"

"What's more, whether it's you, father, or the ninth brother, you are all members of our Zhu family. Why is there so much suspicion?"

"As the eldest brother, don’t we have this little tolerance for others?"

Zhu Biao explained with a serious face.

"Confused!

Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened when he heard this, and he immediately cursed:"I think you have been fooled by all the benevolence, righteousness and morality in your head!""

"Are you just a big brother?"

"You need me to teach you such a simple truth as the Lord of Heaven and Earth, the Lord of Heaven and Earth, and the Master of Heaven and Earth?"

"All the books that have been read for so many years have ended up in the dog’s belly?"

The more Zhu Yuanzhang talked, the more excited he became, and he almost pointed at Zhu Biao's nose and cursed!

"Father, please calm down!"

Zhu Biao didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would have such a big reaction, and he quickly apologized with some panic.

"You are the Crown Prince first and the Crown Prince of our Ming Dynasty!"

"Secondly, you are the eldest brother!"

"It is indeed a good thing for us to have a system, and it would be even better if you have a system!"

"But the problem is that the person in charge of the system now is your brother!"

"Why are you so careless now?"

Zhu Yuanzhang reprimanded with an angry look.

Zhu Biao could only lower his head and endure the scolding, and did not dare to speak out to refute.

Anyway, he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. Even though he was the prince, he was also a member of the public. The eldest brother of a brother, whether it is a court relationship or a personal relationship, as the eldest brother who is the prince, he will naturally trust these brothers who are the vassal kings!

If they are always in intrigues and jealous of each other, even if these brothers have no intention of rebellion. , have to be forced to rebel!

Of course, he can only think about it in his heart and never dare to say it directly at this time!

"Go back and think about it! Just looking at you makes me angry!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was really a little angry this time. Seeing Zhu Biao lowering his head and not saying anything, he waved his hands in disinterest.

This prince is good at everything, but he is too lenient and doesn't even have a sense of crisis. None!

No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang is so angry!

"My son, please retire!"

Zhu Biao did not dare to touch Zhu Yuanzhang's brows anymore and quickly ran away.

Looking at Zhu Biao's leaving back, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed helplessly.���To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network! )

He didn’t know whether to be grateful or helpless.

Teach a good son by yourself!

But it also broke his heart!

Hanzhong, the Palace of the Prince of Han.

Zhou Shuyi is seven months pregnant. Recently, she has difficulty moving due to her big belly. She feels tired even if she takes a few steps.

Fortunately, as the Princess of Han, she didn't need to do anything. She basically had clothes to wear, food to eat and mouth to open.

During this time, in addition to buying things for Zhu Li every now and then, she was also buying things for the little one who was about to be born!

Such as milk powder, bottles, diapers, baby cradle and other things.

Anyway, she has almost everything a child needs from birth to two or three years old, including clothes and shoes!

Zhu Yue didn't have much to say about this, after all, she was doing it for their children.

Moreover, these baby products of later generations are indeed convenient to use and good for children.

Anyway, as long as it doesn't delay his business, he can leave it to Zhou Shuyi!

Every time he wanted Zhou Shuyi to buy something, he had to say hello in advance. Otherwise, by the time he wanted to buy something that day, all three purchasing opportunities would have been used up!

At the end of April, the batch of potatoes planted in early February is ready to be harvested.

Zhu Yue sat in the carriage, raised the curtain on one side, and took a look at the harvest scene in the fields.

The baskets of potatoes were lifted out of the fields by the servants, weighed, and then registered in the warehouse!

Seeing such a scene, Zhu Li's mood suddenly improved!

Fortunately, the temperature was not too low this year. In early February, the weather in Hanzhong Mansion had already turned warm, so he immediately asked people to plant potatoes........

It is exactly three months at the end of April. After the harvest is completed, farming will start again in May, and the last crop can be planted in September.

In this way, you can plant three seasons a year!

As for the coldest time in winter, there is still no way to plant this thing.

After all, no matter how hard the potatoes are cooked, they will still freeze to death if the temperature drops below zero!

The advantage is that as long as the temperature is above zero, you can plant it anytime you want.

In this regard, potatoes have much better cold resistance and adaptability than corn and rice!

At night, Zhu Li was still recording some agricultural books he got from Zhou Shuyi in the study.

It was impossible to copy the entire agricultural books of later modern societies and show them directly to people in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yue could only select some of the best ones, compile them a second time based on the actual conditions of the Ming Dynasty, and then have them read. It is printed and then distributed to the government yamen, which sends people to explain it to the people.

After all, most farmers are almost illiterate. Even if you give him a farming book, he won’t be able to understand it!

Zhu Yue just finished writing here, and Qin and Han finally came back from their busy work.

"Have you harvested all the potatoes? How many are there in total?"

Zhu Li stared at Qin Han expectantly and asked.

"Returning to Your Highness, the total is thirty-eight thousand eight hundred and sixty-one catties!"

Qin and Han reported the numbers they had just finished directly to Zhu Li.

"More than ten acres of land and thirty-eight thousand kilograms are not too small!"

Zhu Yue nodded with satisfaction.

Qin Han couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he heard this!

Good guy, thirty-eight thousand kilograms of land for more than ten acres, isn't it just a small amount?

Isn't this too much?

Three thousand kilograms of one mu of land

What kind of grain can be so high-yield?

Now he has seen it! The batch of corn harvested before the Chinese New Year last year was not bad. Although it only took two acres of land, it still yielded two thousand kilograms. It weighs 1,000 kilograms, although the outer afterbirth and the corn stalks inside need to be removed, but even if it is cut in half, the corn kernels would still weigh 500 kilograms per acre.

However, this thing can only be grown twice a year, not as good as potatoes in one year! The incense can be grown for three seasons, and the yield is even less impressive!

He is now completely convinced by King Han.

He doesn’t know where the King of Han got these high-yielding crops.

Of course, Zhu Yue didn’t say it! He will never take the initiative to ask

"By the way, I will donate five hundred catties to the court, and keep all the other corn for planting next month!"

"This time you directly contact all the yamen in Hanzhong Prefecture and Xi'an Prefecture and ask them to put some thought into promoting potatoes as soon as possible!"

Zhu Yue immediately thought of something and ordered Qin Han in a tone that left no room for doubt.

"The general will obey!"

Qin Han was even more energetic after hearing this!

He knew that with these potatoes, they no longer have to worry about food shortages!

In the next few days, Zhu Yue also began to be busy.

These fertile fields around Hanzhong Mansion , he personally identified them.

After all, most of the fertile land belongs to the common people. They don’t understand things like potatoes, so they have to patiently explain to them to get them to plant them willingly.

But in fact, Zhu Yue is in Hanzhong! The prestige of the government is quite high, and the people are willing to listen to him, so although these tasks are tedious, everything goes smoothly!

Over ten days have passed, and hundreds of acres of potatoes have been planted!

Bian was also thinking about the five hundred kilograms of potatoes. Has Zhu Yuanzhang already received them?

He also knew that potatoes would spread out sooner or later.

It would be better to tell the emperor about it without telling the court. What kind of expression would you have after receiving something like potatoes? At the same time, a cargo ship had docked at Yingtianfu

Terminal , and the officials at the water transport terminal immediately sent someone to notify them.

Prince Zhu Biao!

Zhu Biao had previously ordered that he be notified to receive any goods sent by the King of Han as soon as possible!

In the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was also guarding his potato field, with an excited look on his face. It 's time to harvest. After waiting for so long, the sweetness is finally here!

In a year or two, this potato will be popularized quickly, and the people of Ming Dynasty will no longer have to endure hunger!

On the other hand, the growth of rice is also very gratifying.

Although the quantity is not large, it is the same as potatoes. After several seasons, it can grow exponentially!

At this moment, Prince Zhu Biao suddenly appeared in the imperial garden.

Behind him were several guards carrying bamboo baskets.

Zhu Yuanzhang was originally very happy when he saw the prince coming, but he immediately noticed that Zhu Biao's expression was a little strange, as if he was hesitant to speak. He saw the bamboo baskets that the guards had picked up! When he saw that the bamboo baskets were full of fist-sized potatoes , he felt bad and rubbed his eyes hard! What is it? ps! Please vote!!
