Chapter 135: High-yielding like a sow(1/2)
Emperor Apocalypse seemed careless.
In fact, I was mainly afraid that Zhang Jing would mess up this matter and eventually become a laughing stock for the people of the world.
Although he has a bad reputation, Emperor Tianqi could allow others to curse him as stupid, and even say that he can tolerate being disgusted with women, but he can't be called a fool.
Because the former is a matter of attitude, that is, I just don’t want to govern the country. What can you do? If I have a moral deterioration, what can you do?
But if you say that I, Emperor Aoki, was born with an IQ, it would be a bit insulting.
So Emperor Tianqi deliberately emphasized his tone, and I was here to worship.
Zhang Jingyi didn't seem to have thought of this level. At this moment, he was obviously in a very good mood. He said with a face full of red light: "Your Majesty, please be humble."
As he said that, he said to the officials, "You guys, this place is simple. If there is any negligence, everyone should be more grateful."
All officials only regarded it as a joke. Someone among the crowd suddenly said: "Have you, forget you, Zhang Baihu, you can do whatever you want."
It’s still awesome for those who have read books. The difference in one word makes the meaning different.
All the ministers couldn't hold it in and they all laughed.
Doesn’t the word “she” mean to be a monkey?
As for who the monkey is, it depends on one's own opinion.
You can't tell the problem of what he said, but you just want to laugh.
Why can't Zhang Jingyi understand at this time? He couldn't help grinding his teeth, but at this time, he was very calm because he knew very well that when it comes to talking, one hundred of them was not their opponents.
You can't use your amateur to touch other people's majors.
So Zhang Jing kept silent and just led the way ahead.
Everyone followed behind.
Emperor Apocalypse looked at the scenery here with a good view. The terrain was high, with valleys on both sides, and along the Shinto. In this valley, a wide open place suddenly appeared.
This open place covers a considerable area and has been deserted.
Walking along the ridge of the field, the Zhang family's village at the end is the village.
Zhang Jingyi explained: "This is the land given to the sage Madam, which occupies a considerable area, mainly in the valley, very quiet. There is a river in the distance, which is the branch of the Lugou River. When you go down the water, you can reach the Lugou River and even the Yongding River. Your Majesty, what do you think here... look like?"
Emperor Tianqi said without hesitation: "It's like a valley of hidden soldiers."
Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Emperor Tianqi in his heart!
He is really a talent, and he has practiced it and can see the opportunity at a glance.
In fact... this is indeed a place that military strategists must fight for.
For example, the famous Badaling and Juyongguan are not far from here. It can be seen that this place is actually the throat of Beijing. This is even more square than Shanhaiguan. After all, it is closer to Beijing.
Take a few more steps and the place will be.
People stopped and Zhang Jingyi said, "Everyone should be careful, be careful not to step on my crops."
This is the crop...
People looked surprised and stood on the edge of the field, and the ministers were all wearing robes and skirts, and walking in such places, they looked very embarrassed.
They saw that there were dense foliage in the fields.
This is obviously... different from the crops they imagined.
These sweet potatoes were brought by people from the Chen family in Fujian in the first month of the first month.
Sweet potatoes are ready-made and have been nurtured for dozens of generations.
However, it is a bit unsure whether we can adapt to the geographical environment here. After all, the climate in Fujian is different from here.
So Zhang Jingyi asked Chen Jinglun and others to try it out here.
This kind of planted spring potatoes, but in order to ensure survival, Zhang Jingyi asked someone to choose this piece of land.
Because both sides of this place are surrounded by valleys, it can withstand some cold air, in terms of environment, it is like spring all year round.
Places like this can be found elsewhere in the capital.
The first batch of spring potatoes were planted in the first lunar month. As for various other experimental fields, they only started to plant seedlings after the weather became warmer.
The Chen family is experienced in growing sweet potatoes. After all, they have been taking care of them for decades with Chen Zhenlong.
Chen Jinglun is even more concerned about the promotion of sweet potatoes here. In his opinion, this is his father's will. As a son, he naturally has to find ways to complete it for him.
Who knew that he had gotten here? Zhang Jingyi directly opened a piece of land for him. It was quiet and could make him focus on it. In addition, most of the Chen family moved here, so it was easy to do the work.
They cultivate, fertilize and take good care of them.
I didn’t think that the first batch of spring potatoes actually matured in June.
This was something Chen Jinglun could not have imagined. Although he knew that the ripening period of spring potatoes was between four and six months, it was not slow in the capital.
At this moment, Zhang Jing winked at him.
Chen Jinglun seemed very careful.
He looked at Zhang Jingyi gratefully. He had dreamed countless times that his father's sweet potato could be promoted in Northland, but he never expected that all this would come so quickly.
First, Zhang Jingyi was soon valued and provided the most favorable conditions. Then... Zhang Baihu actually summoned the emperor and officials.
This is something I dare not even dream of.
At this moment, he raised his throat and said, "Go to the ground."
With a command.
Dozens of strong Chen family members got off the ground and began to dig in the ground.
Everything is very careful.
It was like an archaeological excavation, and I was afraid that I would use too much force to dig the sweet potatoes in the soil.
Emperor Tianqi held his hands behind his back with interest at this time, and he couldn't help but feel suspicious.
What is this? Can it be eaten?
The officials behind them have begun to whisper.
Huang Liji stared at the ground without saying a word.
Sun Chengzong's face became solemn at this time. He began to search for various books in his mind, thinking about which book had such food appeared.
In fact, everyone is searching for books in their minds.
The final conclusion is...
Unheard of.
Since it has never been heard of.
So……
Li Qiyuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, whispered to a Hanlin beside him and said, "The people are all hungry and chew on the bark. Now it's better, and now people are eating dirt."
His voice was very soft.
This made this Hanlin wonder whether Li Qiyuan must have had any grudges with Zhang Baihu, but... this Hanlin also agreed very much and kept nodding.
Wei Zhongxian's stomach is still unwell now. He is a little worried now. He won't let him eat it later... His Majesty even let him eat it...this lump of earth is the thing.
Thinking of this...
shudder.
Not long after, under the gaze of everyone, sweet potatoes were thrown out of the field and sent to the ridge of the field.
There were several older Chen family members on the ridge of the field and began to wipe away the soil from the sweet potatoes.
This is a square acre of land, but there are more and more sweet potatoes dug out from this land.
Under a rhizome, it is like a baby with five treasures, or a baby with ten treasures. When you pull it, you pull out a large string.
The Chen family seemed to feel that... the sweet potato was growing well here, and several old tribe members who were responsible for cleaning on the ridges of the fields were chattering and whispering.
Their words can be automatically ignored.
I can't understand anyway.
Soon, sweet potatoes piled up like mountains.
Zhang Jingyi ordered someone on the other side: "Go and get the scale quickly, how many pounds will be weighed by one."
"good."
In fact, someone has prepared the weight.
However... because there is no large scale, you can only use small scales to weigh them and then add them together.
Zhang Jingyi was very enthusiastic at this time, and he also wanted to know how many kilograms of these first carefully planted sweet potatoes can be planted.
Zhang Jing said to Emperor Tianqi: "Your Majesty, we have also planted wheat here. This is a mountainous land. The yield per mu is about one and a half stone, only one hundred and fifty dou, two hundred and three hundred kilograms of grain, but the grain is different... Your Majesty, just take a good look."
Emperor Aoki's eyes had never left the land where the sweet potatoes were dug. He was gradually becoming interested and more and more expectations. But he felt a little tired, so he simply squatted down.
To be continued...
