"The issue of food, after many discussions between the lord and me, believes that we should start from several aspects!"

Xu Shu stepped forward, looked at Liu Xie and a few others, talked eloquently, and said, "First of all, the first thing is to increase the types of food and increase the amount of edible food. Mobile"

"Heh, isn't this grain still able to conjure up new tricks?"

Dong Cheng chuckled and said with a slight mockery. However, when Yuan Chang's eyes flashed with cold light, Dong Cheng was shocked, and suddenly remembered where he was, and immediately shut up. Even Liu Xie looked at Dong Cheng with some dissatisfaction, this guy doesn't look at the occasion when he plays with his temper, besides, there is no doubt about the ability of everyone on the Youzhou side, now he should absorb the advantages of the other party and improve his ability, instead of relying on his mouth to compare and contrast here.

"Minister Dong laughed, this naturally can't be changed!"

Xu Shu responded lightly and said: "Of course, if you can't change, it doesn't mean that you can't increase the variety of food." The world is so big, there are countless edible grains between the mountains and forests, but no one has ever found it. Therefore, the lord sent hunters and other mountain and forest experts to search for edible food, fruits and vegetables in the dense forest, and as long as there was a possibility of eating, they would find out. So far, more than 10 kinds of fruits and more than 20 kinds of vegetables have been searched, which has greatly enriched the diversity of people's catering. ”

Yang Biao sighed with emotion and said: "If it weren't for Chairman Yuan's move, we wouldn't have known that there are so many edible fruits and vegetables in the world, which is really a blind eye, and Chairman Yuan's move should go down in history and be remembered for centuries!"

"Commissioner Yang has an overreputation!"

Yuan Chang chuckled lightly and said calmly: "There are many things in this world that are unknown, and if we don't try, we won't know the usefulness of these things." Therefore, in the face of the unknown, we must have the courage to explore the spirit, not resting on our laurels, only after trying can we know whether it is right or wrong, if we don't try, we can only stand still. ”

"What Chairman Yuan said is reasonable, listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years, this word is honest and does not deceive me!"

Seeing the two of them blowing each other in the business, everyone was a little overwhelmed, Xu Shu seemed to be a little unbearable, and hurriedly stood up and continued: "In addition, just the people of the Central Plains, the diet of the people in the south and the north are different, not to mention the Western Regions, and even the rest of the west, Guishan and other places, so the lord also sent people to search for food outside the Central Plains, so as to increase the variety of food for the people of my Central Plains." Moreover, when the lord served as the Taishou of Bohai County, he sent a group of men and horses to set off from the sea to explore unknown places, search for food, and when they returned, they thought that they could bring the gospel to the people of our Central Plains. ”

Yuan Chang added in due course, saying: "On the opposite side of the land where we live, there is a kind of grain in the country there, which has a very high yield, and one mu of land can produce at least three thousand catties, and if the cultivation is good, it is not a problem to produce five thousand catties per mu." ”

"Chairman Yuan, is this true? There is such food in the world?"

Because of the output of 5,000 catties, Yang Biao had no time to take into account what Yuan Chang had just said, this grain was on the opposite side of the land where they lived, so wouldn't it mean that the people of that country were living upside down? Of course, everyone's focus now is on the high-yield grain, not whether the other party lives upside down.

"That's right!"

Yuan Chang replied with a serious face, he naturally wouldn't joke about this question. Moreover, he did not tell a lie, the potatoes produced on the land of the Americas can indeed reach this level, in addition, the nature of potatoes is also very wild, unlike wheat, rice and other grains are more squeamish, in the event of some droughts, floods, there will be no harvest. Potatoes don't have to worry about this problem, as long as the land is fertile enough, just throw it there, and they can grow well. So, with potatoes, famine could have been largely avoided.

"In addition to the high yield, this grain also has the advantage of being easy to grow, no matter how difficult the environment, it can be grown without a grain harvest. Therefore, if this kind of grain can be brought back to the Central Plains, the people of the Central Plains will no longer have to suffer from famine!"

After Yuan Chang explained the characteristics of potatoes, he sighed: "It's just that the fleet I sent to search for this kind of grain has been going on for several years, but now it has not returned, so I don't know what happened to them." The turbulent waves on the sea are thousands of times more dangerous than those on land, and if you are not careful, your life may be difficult to protect, let alone whether you can bring back food. ”

"Alas!"

Yang Biao and the others also sighed, whether they were close to Yuan Chang or not, they all hoped in their hearts that the fleet sent by Yuan Chang would return safely. If the food in Yuan Chang's mouth can really reach the level that Yuan Chang said, then, for them, there is nothing more worthy of expectation than this, relatively speaking, what can be counted as dissatisfied with Yuan Chang.

"My lord and all of you, I believe that those warriors have done such a feat for the people of the Central Plains, and the gods and Buddhas of the heavens will definitely bless them. ”

Xu Shu comforted him, and everyone could only hope for so. Xu Shu saw that everyone's expressions were a little calmer, so he continued: "Although the variety of edible foods has increased, it may not be able to completely solve the food problem. The warriors who went to sea have not yet returned, so the Chinese Academy of Sciences has also conducted research on wheat, rice and other grains in the Central Plains. First, to increase the yield of these grains, and secondly, to use technical means to speed up the production of grains, so that these grains can be grown multiple times a year. Today, they have all been fruitful, with some progress in terms of production and time. I dare not say that the people of the world can be saved from hunger, and at least the people of the three states will not be afraid of the problem of food shortage. ”

"Really?"

Liu Xie couldn't help but ask excitedly, the problem of food is the most fundamental problem. Food, clothing, housing, and transportation, food is naturally in the first place, and the problem of clothing is at most a bit shabby, and it is not a lie to sew and mend for another three years; the problem of housing is also not big, and it is not illegal to cut down mountains and forests these years, as long as you are diligent, it is not a problem to build a house that can shelter from the wind and rain; there is no problem with traveling, as long as you have two legs, whether you have cars and horses, and other means of transportation, the common people today are not so squeamish.

Therefore, food is the most important thing, and if a person is hungry for three or two days, he may be able to endure it. However, if it takes a little longer, I am afraid that some unpredictable behaviors will be made. And if the food problem can be solved, it will inevitably be supported by the people, and there is no doubt about this.

"Don't dare to deceive the Führer, indeed!"

Xu Shu's tone was humble but flat, and he said slowly: "When the lord was the Taishou of Bohai County, he had already established the Chinese Academy of Sciences to study this way. Since then, there has been a success, the people of Youzhou have planted more improved grains, the harvest has risen sharply, and every household has stored grain, so there is no need to worry about the lack of food. The Führer and all of you went to the city and asked any household, and you could find out whether the matter was true or false. The government also had a surplus of grain to store in storehouses, which would be enough to feed millions of people in the event of a famine. ”

"If so, it will be a blessing to the people of the world!"

At this moment, Liu Xie and several others were all emotional. After all, Liu Xie is an ideal son of heaven, and he wants to revive the Han Dynasty, and after he was forced to abdicate in history, he became a doctor, which shows that he is sincerely serving the people. Therefore, when I heard that the Chinese Academy of Sciences had improved grain production, I was overjoyed, and Yang Biao and a few others were the same, although there were many people in the family who were rich and unkind, but after all, Yang Biao and the others were scholars, and although they would fight for power and profit, they still had a benevolent heart in treating the people.

This is still satisfactory to Yuan Chang, if he is like the kind of person who wants to hoard food and make a fortune in times of famine, Yuan Chang will naturally not be polite.

After Liu Xie finished praising them, Xu Shu said again: "In addition, there is a grain in Nanyue and other places, which can be planted three or four times a year, and the lord also sent people and horses to Nanyue to get this grain seed. Many people in Jiangdong and other places have planted this kind of food, but there is no imperial court to promote it, and the people cannot be allowed to plant it on a large scale. In addition, the people of the new grain varieties were also worried that the grain would not be harvested, so the grain seeds of South Vietnam could not be disseminated. These grains need to be grown in the warm climate of the south to play their role, and if they are planted in the north, they may not be able to play their advantages. Now, in order to spread the cultivation of such food, it is necessary to send an edict to the presidents of the southern states by decree of the Führer. ”

Hearing that the grain in Nanyue can be grown three or four times a year, Liu Xie was overjoyed, and with such grain, the people of the world will no longer worry about the problem of grain. However, who knew that Xu Shu later said that this kind of grain could not be promoted, and that it was a new kind of grain that would dare to be planted with confidence, and if there was no harvest, what would happen to the family? However, Xu Shu said that he would send an edict to the special chairmen of the southern states in his name, and Liu Xie did not have a bottom in his heart. After all, what restraint can he, a powerless puppet, have on those bigwigs?

sighed lightly, but no matter whether those bigwigs would listen to his orders or not, it wouldn't take much effort to give an order anyway, so he said: "In this case, I will make a decree... Circulars to plant new grains in the states. ”

Liu Xie is also not sure how many people can obey orders in each state. However, it is just a matter of doing everything to the fate of heaven.

In fact, Liu Xie didn't know that it was Yuan Chang and Guo Jia who negotiated to give him an order. They also knew that Liu Xie's orders were of little use, and perhaps no one would follow them at all. However, this is exactly what they need. Sooner or later, we will be enemies of these forces, but if we send troops to attack others for no reason, we will lose our righteousness in the eyes of the people. If there is a name to attack the other party, then, the local people will not have much resistance, if there is no reason, it will not cause the people to hate the enemy, and resist the soldiers and horses of Youzhou together. Although we don't take the people's combat power into account, it is not a good thing to hurt innocent people after all.

Therefore, digging a pit now will have a good reason to become a teacher in the future.

"The Chinese Academy of Sciences, I wonder if the head of state and you are satisfied?" Yuan Chang looked at Liu Xie, Yang Biao and others with a smile, and chatted casually.

"Chairman Yuan has a heart, and I am very satisfied!"

What the Chinese Academy of Sciences saw and heard opened Liu Xie's eyes, and it also made Liu Xie change a little. He decided to temporarily extinguish the desire to compete for power and profit with Yuan Chang, work hard to improve himself, and when he felt that his literacy was enough, he would compete with Yuan Chang. Perhaps, when the time comes, there will be no need to fight, Yuan Chang will be impressed by him. Of course, this is a beautiful fantasy in Liu Xie's heart, and it is unknown whether it can be realized. Besides, Yuan Chang gave him a set of excellent armor and ten sets of ordinary armor, so it was reasonable, Liu Xie couldn't say he was dissatisfied with his conscience.

Yang Biao stroked his beard and nodded again and again: "What the old man saw and heard at the Chinese Academy of Sciences today surpasses what the old man saw and heard in the past, and it is in vain." If you say you're not satisfied, I'm afraid it's intolerable, haha!"

"As Committee member Yang said, there is no reason to be dissatisfied!"

Not to mention Zhao Wen's devotion to Yuan Chang, none of Zhang Xi, Fu Wan and others said they were dissatisfied. Even Dong Cheng, who had the intention of picking thorns, couldn't say one, two, or three, so he could only praise it with a dark face.

"Huh!"

Xu Shu chuckled lightly and said, "Since the Führer and you are satisfied, then it's fine." For the time being, the Chinese Academy of Sciences will visit these representative inventions, and the rest of the research inventions will not hurt to visit them again in the future at leisure. Next, we move on to our last destination for the day. The previous library and the Chinese Academy of Sciences were related to the well-being of all the people in the world, but the next destination is closely related to you. ”

"Oh!"

Yang Biao was shocked and asked, "Dare to ask Commissioner Xu, I don't know what it means to be closely related to us, can you explain a little bit?"

"Commissioner Yang doesn't need to be in a hurry, we'll find out later!"

Seeing Xu Shu selling Guanzi, Yang Biao could only suppress his thoughts depressedly, of course, not only Yang Biao was curious, Liu Xie and others were like this, what kind of place would be closely related to them, and I would not have to observe it carefully later.

Then, the group got into the carriage and set off again.

After about half an hour, I finally arrived at my destination. This made Liu Xie and them a little puzzled, this place seems to be a little remote, but the surrounding environment is extremely elegant and quiet, as soon as they arrived here, they felt that the turbidity in their chest was reduced a little, and their mood was a little more relaxed.

"Stop coming!"

Before the carriage approached, a guard stepped forward to stop it, and saw that the guards looked solemn and vigilant, and if they made the slightest move, they would have to do it.

Seeing this situation, Liu Xie and Yang Biao were even more puzzled, Yuan Chang was a big man in Youzhou, and it was naturally impossible for these guards not to know each other, but why did they still react like this? Looking at the nameplate of Baisui Mountain hanging on the pillars carved from white marble, they were very curious in their hearts, what kind of place was this.
