Chapter 223: Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes
And inside the old farm at this time.
Li Yi was already wearing armor, and in the garden of the north courtyard, he was carrying a bucket of water, watering the soil in front of him.
He muttered, "Brother Potato, Brother Sweet Potato, grow up quickly, I'm really hungry for your taste." ”
Originally.
Li Yi removed all the flowers in the garden of the north courtyard for potatoes and sweet potatoes.
I also understood that the mysterious things that Li Yi got in Bian Han City (Big Food Spel City) turned out to be these two things.
No wonder Li Yi is so mysterious that he never lets people approach this garden.
Of course, except for the old farmer that Dian Wei found for Li Yi.
When Li Yi was busy, an old farmer was taking care of potatoes and sweet potatoes.
When the watering was almost over, Li Yi put down the wooden bucket and the gourd, and said softly to the trembling old farmer next to him, "Uncle Sang, these two pieces of land will be handed over to you, be sure to take care of them for me." ”
"General, His Royal Highness the King of Tang, the little old man will definitely take care of them."
Uncle Sang was incoherent, and Yanran was frightened.
When Li Yi entered the garden, Uncle Sang was just in awe of Li Yi, after all, he was the owner of the old farm.
I didn't think much about the armor on his body.
But later, the big man in armor came to Li Yi and called the word "general".
Uncle Sang was shocked.
Rubbing his cloudy eyes, he saw that Li Yi's usual black hair had become silver white, and the green fetal marks on his face had also dissipated, revealing a lovely face.
Plus a stomach armor.
It's like, like General Li Yi in the Datang newspaper.
Come to mind.
Uncle Sang's mind exploded, and he fell to the ground violently, looking at Li Yi in horror, this is what it seems.
Obviously, the owner of the village in front of him is General Li Yida.
In an instant, Uncle Sang also understood that General Li Yi was cheating to death.
At this moment, Uncle Sang was terrified.
Seeing Uncle Sang's helpless appearance, Li Yi smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, Uncle Sang, I'm still a child, what are you afraid of me doing, could it be that I'm the devil who eats people?" ”
Hearing this, Uncle Sang hurriedly shook his head, "No, His Royal Highness King Tang is not an evil ghost, His Royal Highness King Tang is a general who protects the people." ”
And Li Yi's kind tone also made Uncle Sang slowly relax his nerves and began to look at Li Yi secretly.
"But I'll also bring blood, aren't you afraid?"
Li Yi touched his silver-white hair.
It was so natural to sit on the barrel.
"What are you afraid of?"
Uncle Sang blew his beard, and then said, "The general never kills good people, only those enemies who invade my Tang territory, even if it brings blood?" ”
"I don't have a bad seed in Datang, and my son is also a soldier in the side, and there are things I understand better than others."
"Oh, Uncle Sang's son is also a Tang Dynasty soldier."
Li Yi's eyes lit up and he praised, "Then he must be very heroic, after all, Uncle Sang is not old." ”
But as soon as Li Yi's words came out.
Uncle Sang's eyes dimmed a little, and he said sadly, "I haven't seen him for several years, and I don't know if he is still alive." ”
Then he waved his old hand again, "Look at what I'm talking about." ”
"His Royal Highness the King of Tang, can the potatoes and sweet potatoes you grow really feed all the people of the Tang Dynasty?"
Li Yi knew that Uncle Sang had changed the topic, so he didn't mention it, but said with a smile, "Absolutely." ”
"If this potato grows and is used for breeding, under normal circumstances, there can be about 25 Hu (3,000 catties) to 40 Hu (5,000 catties) per acre of land."
"And this sweet potato, without seeds as feed, can be transplanted by pressing seedlings, and an acre of land can have about 32 dendrobs (4,000 catties) to 40 dendrobs (5,000 catties)."
"Goo-to-goo...
Hearing the figures reported by Li Yi, Uncle Sang swallowed his saliva.
It was the first time he had seen such a high-yield food, and it should not be unheard of on his forehead from ancient times to the present.
His tone trembled and said, "His Royal Highness King Tang, what you said is true?" ”
"Of course."
Li Yi nodded, took out a thin book from his stomach, and handed it to Uncle Sang, "This is the planting method of potatoes and sweet potatoes, and precautions, Uncle Sang can wait for the two things to mature and transplant them to the foot of the old farm, where I have already ordered someone to reclaim the land." ”
"When I leave, I don't know when I will be able to return to the old farm, so this thing that can live the people will be handed over to Uncle Sang."
"Smack."
However, Uncle Sang suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Yi and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Tang, the little old man kowtows to His Royal Highness the King of Tang on behalf of the hungry people in the world... ”
"I can't do it."
Li Yi turned sideways and held Uncle Sang down, "I just did what I could, if I hadn't gotten them by chance, I wouldn't have been able to stop the people from starving." ”
"Take this planting cheats, take good care of potatoes and sweet potatoes."
Li Yi put the book in Uncle Sang's hand, got up and walked out of the garden.
He was not afraid that Uncle Sang would not know how to read, because his old farm would leave guards, and he would have his own guards to help him when the time came.
"His Royal Highness the King of Tang, the little old man will welcome your triumphant return with a bumper harvest."
Looking at Li Yi's departing figure, Uncle Sang hugged the book in his hand tightly, and his cloudy eyes were full of determination.
He is old, but he is always there!
"Meet the General."
Li Yi walked out of the north courtyard, and Dian Wei and Xu Zhu hurriedly greeted him.
"It seems to be quite lively outside the village."
Li Yi looked at the firelight in the distance, and couldn't help asking, "Is it Zhao Yun and the others who are here?" ”
"Yes, the Great General."
Xu Zhu nodded and said, "Not only that, but even the people in Chang'an City, the court officials have come a lot. ”
"When the court officials come here, most of them are scared."
Li Yi chuckled, and then said, "There is still an hour before Tianshu, so let them wait, and also use this to test the endurance of the twelve guards to see if they have been controlled by Zhao Yun and them." ”
Then.
Dian Wei grinned, "I don't know, what kind of expression they will have when they see the general." ”
"It must be exciting."
Xu Zhu replied with a smile.
"It's wonderful."
Li Yi glared at Xu Zhu and Dian Wei, he didn't know these two goods, it meant something, not just the reaction of the officials and the people.
It's more about their reactions.
Thinking about Li Yi makes me feel a headache.
At this time, he didn't know that the person who distressed him had already come to the Tang Palace, where he was standing quietly.
The red clothes are fluttering, and the pretty face is haggard.
She is the Qingwu who arrived in Chang'an City.
Looking at the solemn white cloth of Tang Wangfu, Qing Wu's tears kept slipping, and his steps were extremely heavy.
So that she couldn't step into the Tang Palace.
Just standing there. Await...
At this time, outside the old farm, An Fatzi and Yang Guozhong met with several people, including King Qing Li Cong and Prince Li Heng.
"Elder Li Ge, I don't know if you know, why are the twelve guards here? Who is the owner of this old farm? ”
