Chapter 73 Gourd? No, it's a divine melon!(1/2)
As a result, Du Lifeng was even less courageous than Liu Mingqi imagined. After spanking, he actually cried again: "Wuwuwu...I'm sorry, Your Highness...I...I...I deserve to die...I don't want to..."
"Bor!"
As he spoke, the second fart came out again.
Now Liu Mingqi has experience and quickly goes aside.
After a while, he stepped forward and kicked Du Lifeng who couldn't stop crying, "Okay, okay, I won't kill you, nor will I drive you away... Get up and talk to me!"
Du Lifeng raised his head, his face covered with snot and tears, but he could not block his surprise: "Your Highness, are you... saying true?"
"nonsense!"
"Bor!"
The third one!
After the boy avoided it, he laughed, "I said Du Lifeng, why do you love fucking so much? Did you have a bad stomach?"
"No, I don't dare to eat too much." Du Lifeng was not so nervous when he saw Liu Mingqi laughing, and explained more: "But my habit of fucking can't stop... They ignored me because of this!"
Liu Mingqi suddenly had an idea: "You were crying here just now. Could it be that you couldn't help but spank at the banquet and were scolded?"
Du Lifeng nodded quickly: "Yes, Your Highness, I... an adult came over and scolded me, saying that I was rude and asked me to get out... But I didn't dare to go back first, so I had to follow a few people and arrived here unknowingly."
Liu Mingqi said: "Is your problem born with you?"
"No." Du Lifeng said a little embarrassedly, "Everyone in our place is like this."
"All this?"
The boy was so happy. I never heard of fucking that can be contagious.
Du Lifeng explained: "It was not before. But thirty years ago, after a huge disaster, we couldn't find anything to eat, but by chance we found that the field of a deserted island was covered with gourds. It was delicious to eat raw and roasted, and it could save hunger.
Moreover, the gourd is very easy to plant. After being buried in the ground, it can grow on its own. The yield is still very large, enough for all of us to eat. Therefore, we survived such a big famine.
From then on, Jingua, a divine object gifted by God, became our main food. But it has a small disadvantage, that is, if you eat too much, you will be fucked. You can't help but not even beat me."
Wait a minute!
The boy's face changed!
Because the more he listened, the more he felt that the gourd was like food that he was very familiar with.
He asked with a trembling voice: "What do you mean, are you fucking now? Is it because of the gourd? Can gourds be taken so far away and then still be eaten?"
"Yes!"
Du Lifeng nodded and said proudly: "We dried the gourd and it can be stored for a long time. I first wrapped the gourd tightly in a bag, then placed it in a box, and buried the bag with volcanic ash. In this way, I brought it to the capital and took it out and it was still dry.
Next, I only use it when the sun is strong, and I can dry the remaining gourds from time to time, and I can eat them for at least one year! The next year, my father will definitely send guards to me on a merchant ship to deliver the new gourds!"
My God!
Liu Mingqi felt his heart trembling, and he forced himself not to be excited: "Xiao Du, are you carrying golden gourds on you now?"
"Yes." Du Lifeng said embarrassedly: "Actually... I didn't eat anything for a long time before the banquet, so I just ate a few pieces, and I ended up being a spanked..."
"Take it out and let me see." The boy quickly stretched out his hand, "Hurry up!"
Du Lifeng did not notice that Liu Mingqi's voice had changed. He was still very happy, as if this highness was very interested in Jinguagan.
So he took out a cloth bag from his arms and just wanted to give it to Liu Mingqi, but Liu Mingqi snatched it away.
After Liu Mingqi opened it, she grabbed several yellow and red objects from it, shining at the moon, and threw them into her mouth without thinking.
"Your Highness..."
Du Lifeng was so scared that he reached out to stop him.
He didn't know if the nobles in Shangguo would be fine after eating it.
Since he learned that eating golden gourds will make people fuck him constantly, even if he brought dried golden gourds, he only dared to eat them at home with the guards, and rarely took them outside, let alone shared them with others.
Today was an accident. I was in a hurry to go out and forgot to take it out of this costume.
As a result, he couldn't help it when he got here, which led to this situation.
It doesn’t matter if he fucks himself. If a noble man has any other problems after eating it, it is a great sin. I’m afraid even Dakang Chao can’t stay there anymore!
Unexpectedly, Du Lifeng soon saw Liu Mingqi showing an intoxicated look.
“!?”
Du Lifeng thought he had read it wrong, but rubbed his eyes and saw that it was indeed true!
Moreover, there seemed to be tears flashing in the little prince's eyes!!!
Could it be that Jingua is really so charming that even the little prince of Shangguo was conquered?
For a moment, Du Lifeng's heart was filled with pride and pride.
He didn't know that although dried gourd was delicious, it was definitely not the best thing Liu Mingqi had ever eaten.
The reason why Liu Mingqi is so excited is not because of the taste.
But the dried gourd itself!
Where is this golden gourd?
It's just a divine melon!
It is a divine melon that saves the suffering and saves me and the people from the suffering of hunger!
In another world, it has a more resounding and well-known name - sweet potato!
Shunzhi and Kangxi relied on it to survive the Little Ice Age.
The stability of the Qing Dynasty was almost entirely due to the role of sweet potatoes and another magical substance, potatoes.
Someone once said that if sweet potatoes and potatoes could be widely planted and eaten fifty years in advance, the peasant uprising in the Ming Dynasty would not be so fierce. After no internal troubles, the Ming Dynasty would not be so anxious to resolve the Jurchens, thus making big mistakes again and again, and eventually leading to destruction.
There were not so many impulsive duels that all the elite soldiers and generals were wiped out. As long as the Ming Dynasty relied on hard consumption, it could kill the Qing Dynasty between the white mountains and black waters.
From the Kangxi period to the Qianlong period, my country's population expanded from 100 million to more than 400 million. The biggest contributors here were sweet potatoes and potatoes.
They can make the poor dare to have children, and they can support so many children. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are magical objects.
Even in the 21st century, sweet potatoes and potatoes are a good thing.
Even if the rice production is not sufficient, the imperial court is not too panicked. Part of the reason is that there is no way out. Sweet potatoes and potatoes can also be used, and large-scale famine is impossible.
So no matter which dynasty, what you eat is the most important thing.
And super high-yield grain crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes are the confidence of everyone.
Although the Great Kang Dynasty was prosperous, it was on the road to prosperity.
But among such a population of 150 million, at least 20 to 30 million people cannot afford to eat. If you only count the people who can get food and clothing every day, then at most only half of the population is.
If you encounter some natural disasters, there will be a lot of more people in poverty.
If there are magical objects like sweet potatoes, Liu Mingqi can guarantee that within twenty years, the number of people who can't afford to eat will be reduced to negligible. Within fifty years, the population of the Dakang Dynasty can double!
Grandpa Taizu said it well, population is everything. As long as there is a person, what kind of miracles on earth cannot be done?
It has been half a year since Liu Mingqi came to this world.
The Dakang Dynasty, a dynasty that I had never heard of before, had a system that looked a bit like the Song Dynasty, a bit like the Ming Dynasty, and some like the Qing Dynasty... But overall, it was better than these three dynasties.
At least as the prince of this dynasty, Liu Mingqi hopes that it will have a prosperous era that lasts for a hundred years.
The Kangxi and Qianlong periods lasted for more than 130 years, and there was no reason why the Great Kang Dynasty was worse than it.
As for what happened in the future, Liu Mingqi had already gone to the sky to see the fairy sister, so she couldn't care about that much.
If you want the Great Kang Dynasty to last for a long time, this sweet potato is very important. It can be said that it is very, very important, and it can even be ranked first in Liu Mingqi's heart.
It was also God's blessing that I actually saw the sweet potatoes here, which shows that God still has eyes.
Today, the Great Kang Dynasty has been established for more than 80 years.
Although Emperor Jinghe was a good emperor, there were too many disasters over the years and his sense of responsibility was too strong. He always tried his best to rescue the disaster, which made the national treasury very empty.
After the Yunmengze flood this spring, there was a locust plague that had not been encountered in 20 years, which made the emperor not only use the money and silk in the inner treasury again, but also had to rely on increasing the share of salt intake to the salt merchants in Jiangnan to overcome the difficulties.
If it is like this year's disaster, if it happens two or three times, it may be a big problem.
With sweet potatoes, the most basic eating problem is solved, and no problem is anymore urgent.
Chewing the dried sweet potatoes and feeling the sweetness of the starch inside, Liu Mingqi thought a lot.
It was not until Du Lifeng kept calling him quietly that the boy woke up.
Looking at the dark and thin prince of Cebu, Liu Mingqi's eyes were glowing.
"Your Highness..." Du Lifeng was a little scared, "You... are you nothing? Don't your stomach hurt?"
"No, no, no, where is it hurting? Very good, very good! I'm very good!"
Liu Mingqi reached out and patted his shoulder: "Little Du, your red...dry gourd, how many more is there in your home?"
"Your Highness likes it?" Du Lifeng was happy again, "My father will send three or five hundred kilograms every year. If you like it, I will ask him to send another thousand kilograms!"
