Chapter 65 Whoever controls the grain controls the world

And Shangguan Hong and his entourage came to Li Quan's manor here, and after everyone sat down, Li Quan instructed Xiao Yan next to him: "Xiao Yan, serve tea to everyone, use good tea." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. Xiao Yan didn't know what Li Quan meant by good tea, so he went out to prepare.

After a while, Xiao Yan came back again, followed by two maids, a total of four cups of tea on the two saucers, Xiao Yan gently put one of the cups in front of Li Quan, and the two maids next to him also put four teacups in front of the table of Shangguan Hong and his party.

"Please, Mr. Shangguan and the ambassadors can taste our Nutang specialty, Yunmengxian tea, only we Nutang have it in this world, and it is absolutely impossible to drink it in other places. Li Quan said very proudly.

This is a good thing to redeem from the system, not only contains a variety of vitamins, but also is rich in rare elements, long-term and can enhance immunity, delay aging, prolong life, is his father Li Tang's favorite.

Although Nuvoton is also planting this kind of tea tree now, it will have to wait a year to drink the local Yunmengxian tea, and now the usual drinks are directly exchanged from the system, which is extremely precious.

Now the only people who can enjoy the unlimited supply of Yunmengxian tea are the palace, parents, father-in-law's family, and the general Liu Ming, and others can only have the opportunity to drink it occasionally.

For this reason, Zhang Xian and Liu Ming complained to themselves in private, but in fact, Li Quan knew that this was their intention, and he was afraid that he would suspect them of forming a party for personal gain, so he would clear his suspicion in this way.

If they knew that Li Quan could see their attributes and see their loyalty, they might sleep more peacefully at night and not have to worry so much.

"Oh, this is the Yunmeng Immortal Tea that only sees its name and does not see its shadow, then I really want to taste it." Shangguan Hong's eyes lit up, and he picked up the teacup and took a small sip.

Suddenly the tea is full of fragrance, which makes people have endless aftertaste, and even the spirit has become better, of course, this must be a psychological effect.

Yunmeng Immortal Tea, although it has a fairy word, is indeed not mysterious, just a good thing.

"Good tea, good tea, not only looks green and attractive, makes people feel refreshed, but also makes people have an endless aftertaste and invigorate their spirits, there are so many good things in your new Tang. Shangguan Hong gently put down the teacup, meaning something.

Li Quan happily accepted the other party's praise: "Of course, although our Xintang Dynasty is small and narrow, it is indeed rich in things and people, but the world doesn't know it." ”

Shangguan Hongshun led the topic to crescent rice. said: "Yes, Xintang used to be too low-key, by the way, Your Majesty the King, when we came here just now, we saw that the crops grown in the farm outside seemed to have never been seen before, I don't know what they were, so it is inconvenient for us to go and see, and we will gain knowledge." ”

The old fox, when I finally said it, thought you could hold it back and not say it.

Li Quan had long known their intentions and had his own considerations, so of course he would not stop them, so he generously agreed.

"No problem, I'll take you there, everyone can watch it casually. ”

Li Quan personally led everyone to the edge of the nearest farmland, and picked an ear of rice and handed it to Shangguan Hong, introducing:

"This is another treasure of our new Tang Dynasty, crescent rice, is our specialty here, I haven't heard of it in other places, a rice ear is about seventy or eighty crescent rice, but each of our crescent rice grains is very large, very full, you see it is the size of a thumb. ”

There are about seven or eight circles of crescent rice on a rice ear from top to bottom, and there are about ten crescent moons in each circle, so there are about seventy or eighty grains in total, which is still a one-star crescent rice, and if it is a three-star one, it can reach fifteen circles.

That is to say, the yield per mu of three-star crescent rice will reach a terrifying 5,000 kilograms, which is a bit exaggerated, he really doesn't dare to take it out, even the one-star one is enough to make people crazy.

Besides, the three-star crescent rice is worth 350 million prestige, and the one-star technology plus seeds is only 80 million, the difference is too big, even if he is very rich now, but he can't withstand too much consumption.

Because of the development of Nuvoton, there are too many aspects to spend, which can be saved a little, and there must be a certain prestige value left in hand to deal with some emergencies.

Safety always comes first, and once your life is gone, everything will be closed.

Shangguan Hong carefully took the crescent moon rice, as if he had received a holy relic, and then the other ambassadors who came with him all swooped around, all wanting to look more closely.

After all, hearing is false, seeing is believing.

Shangguan Hong and his entourage studied it carefully for a while, and it was already certain that this was indeed a new type of plant, not a scam of the New Tang Dynasty, and then he walked up to Li Quan very excitedly and asked:

"Your Majesty, can this crescent rice really reach a yield of 2,500 kilograms per mu?"

These words directly exposed the fact that they knew, but he couldn't control these anymore, and it was difficult to suppress his excitement.

Because if all this is true, then the significance to China is really too great, and it can be said that it is no less than the successful development of the nuclear bomb in that year.

Whoever controls the food controls the world.

The corners of Li Quan's mouth rose slightly: "To be precise, it should be 2,664 kilograms, we have planted a total of 30,000 acres, and now we have harvested almost 10,000 acres, and the remaining two days will be harvested, and 2,664 kilograms is the average value calculated from the first batch of 6,000 acres of land we harvested yesterday." ”

"Of course, having such a high yield is also related to the good land we use and the care we take care of, but in any case, its yield is here, even if it is planted elsewhere, as long as the environment is suitable, there should be no problem in maintaining the yield above 2,400 kilograms. ”

"Crescent rice is a very good thing, it is simply a gift from God to us human wealth, in addition to having the advantages of ultra-high yield and short cycle, it also has very strong insect pest, lodging resistance, drought resistance, cold resistance. ”

"It can be said that in addition to extreme environments such as deserts, Gobi, and cold zones, it can be cultivated in other places around the world. ”

"And the nutritional value of crescent rice is much higher than the rice and wheat we often eat, and it is definitely a rare good thing. ”

Shangguan Hong's ambassadors who came with him were meticulous and listened to Li Quan's speech carefully, just like students listening to a teacher's lecture.

Every time Li Quan said a word about the characteristics of crescent rice, they forced themselves to calm down, not daring to make a sound, except for the nervous inhalation of their own breath.

"How is that possible?"
