Chapter 11: The Appearance of Potatoes (5000 chapters)

Taiyuan royal family.

The head of the family, Wang Siyi, received several letters of complaint about what the Wang family had done in Chang'an.

After the investigation, Wang Siyi knew everything and immediately sent his henchmen to Chang'an.

Wang Yuan has been forcibly locked in the house for the past few days, not allowed to go out for half a step, and the people who guard them are the people from Dali Temple.

The grain merchants in Chang'an all knew that the first grain prices to be lowered were Wang Yuan's grain stores. They came to their homes to ask for explanations and compensation.

But they were blocked out by the people of Dali Temple, and those who wanted to break in were all broken legs, and then let the people of Dali Temple arrest them.

This is also one of the reasons why the price of grain in Chang'an has dropped so quickly, but Li Feng didn't expect it.

Lin Jian, the former magistrate, was also taken into custody, just in case.

Ten days passed quickly, and the price of grain had always been six cents a bucket, and on a few occasions the price of grain rebounded to ten cents and a bucket, and it was immediately suppressed by the imperial court^.

Now the grain in the hands of the imperial court is more than the grain merchants in the entire Chang'an combined, so the current grain is decided by the imperial court.

After Lin Jian and Wang Yuan were free, they immediately inquired about what had happened in Chang'an in the past ten days. After ten days at home, he realized that a major incident had happened in Chang'an City, and it might have something to do with him.

When he learned from the steward that the price of grain was stable and a group of grain merchants looked for him but could not find him, he realized that he was in trouble.

Especially when I learned that the first to reduce the price of grain was my own grain store, the whole person felt that the world was spinning and he was planted on the ground.

When he woke up, the cronies of the head of the family sent by Taiyuan appeared in front of him, and without saying a word, he took him and Lin Jian to Taiyuan, and this matter must be explained to everyone.

He, Wang Yuan is the best candidate.

Temple of Manna.

Li Er sat on the dragon chair, looking at his courtiers in a very good mood, and showed a smile when his eyes saw Xiao Yu.

"Xiao Aiqing, what else do you have to say now?"

"Wechen has nothing to say, His Majesty's vision of people makes Wechen out of reach, since the people have such a genius, Wechen suggests recruiting him as an official and contributing to the people."

Li Er smiled and said: "I really had this intention for a long time, but he is too young, and now that he is an official in the court, will he pull out the seedlings to help him." ”

"Your Majesty, don't think about this matter for the time being, Li Feng has no intention of being an official." Fang Xuanling stood up and said.

For everything about Li Feng, he and Li Er had already investigated it clearly, even if his eighteenth generation ancestors had known about it.

Li Er frowned slightly, and said, "Since that's the case......"

"Wait, the old minister is willing to convince Li Feng." Xiao Yu said.

Du Ruhui stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Li Feng has made a lot of contributions, and the imperial court should reward him, even if he is not an official, he should reward him with some money." ”

"What Du Qing said is reasonable, Xuan Ling, you and I will go to the tavern tomorrow and ask Li Feng what he wants?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Fang Xuanling should arrive, and his face was full of pride.

"Your Majesty, can Wechen go with you?" Du Ruhui said.

"Wechen also wants to go along." The eldest grandson Wuji said.

Xiao Yu also spoke: "The old minister implores His Majesty for permission to go together." Lao Chen wants to see what kind of person this demonic genius is? ”

"No, I don't want to reveal my identity yet, after I finish asking, you and Tang Jian will go and send him the reward. As for the others, you can follow them as you wish, but you must not reveal your identity. ”

"Wechen understands."

Immediately, Li Er took Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and the eldest grandson Wuji to the Li tavern together.

Lee's Tavern.

Li Feng opened the achievement system and inquired about his achievement points.

"Two hundred and eighty-two points, two points are the leftovers of the last time, and these two hundred and eighty points are the achievement points earned by solving the drought this time. It's a little little, and I can't buy that "Heavenly Creation", otherwise with the skill book on the book, I can earn a lot of achievement points by inventing a few things. Li Feng looked at the achievement point and said to himself.

"Open the System Store."

As soon as Li Feng's words fell, a store page appeared in his mind, and then he began to check the products randomly.

"The power of the overlord, the power of Xiang Yu Chu and the power of the overlord, the price is fifteen hundred achievement points. It's too expensive. ”

"Chicken and Dog Theft, Tracking, Cabbage Seeds, Bicycle ......"

I looked at more than 40 products in a row, none of them were satisfactory to Li Feng, not to mention the price, but to talk about practicality, these goods could not bring Li Feng achievement points.

Suddenly he stopped at a commodity, he saw a potato, he patted his head, and said: "Yes, potatoes, you can grow potatoes, this is grain and vegetables, and the yield per mu is many times more than other grains."

As soon as the potatoes come out, they will benefit the Tang Dynasty, and there are not tens of thousands of achievement points, but there are always eight thousand. The worst, three thousand, is enough to buy "Heavenly Creation". ”

Li Feng thought about it while finding potato seeds, the price was not expensive, only one hundred and fifty achievement points.

Without saying a word, Li Feng bought potato seeds, that is, a sack of potato pieces, each potato piece has two or three sprouts, enough to plant an acre of land.

Potatoes are actually a bargain, but Datang does not have them to be precious, and now with potato pieces, within a few years, every household has potatoes, and they can't even eat them and rot.

Therefore, the price is not high, only a hundred

Seeing that there were still more than 100 achievement points in his hand, Li Feng spent another 100 points to buy a book of primary brewing technology.

Wine is the favorite thing of everyone in Datang, not only the people of Datang, but also the people of Turkic and other countries.

Therefore, winemaking is a way to make a fortune, Li Feng didn't even think about it, and directly bought the primary winemaking technology.

It's not that he doesn't want to buy high-end ones, it's just that he's too poor and doesn't have achievement points.

The primary brewing technique was directly learned by Li Feng and disappeared in his mind, and another sack of potato pieces also disappeared in his mind, and Li Feng's hand appeared in an instant.

Because it was too heavy and unprepared, Li Feng's whole person was pressed to the ground by potato pieces.

"Hey, this body is too weak, find a chance to buy an overlord power, just these potato pieces can be picked up with one hand."

"Ahh What's the matter, young master, are you alright? ”

After Fu Bo finished his work, he saw that Li Feng was pressed by the sack, so he hurriedly removed the sack, helped Li Feng up, and helped Li Feng pat the dust on his clothes together.

"It's okay, it's okay. Makes you worried. Li Feng said while patting the dust on his clothes.

After confirming that Li Feng was fine, Fu Bo breathed a sigh of relief, and then curiously looked at the contents of the sack: "What is the young master in here?" ”

Li Feng said: "Potatoes are a kind of grain, Fubo, we don't need too much land, as long as there is one acre." ”

"This ......," Fauber hesitated.

Li Feng remembered at this time that his predecessor had lost all the industry, and only this tavern remained. Of course, the land was also lost.

"Fubo, now that we have money, let's go to Wannian County and buy a Zhuangzi, I want to grow potatoes."

"You want to grow potatoes? What's that? Grain? Li Er walked into the tavern at this time, and just heard that Li Feng was going to plant potatoes.

He was followed by Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the eldest grandson Wuji.

Fang Xuanling, as a father-in-law, has been here many times, and the familiar one has long been the same as his own home, he came to Li Feng, opened the sack, and then took out a piece of potato wedge, and was curious.

"What is this, the old man has never seen it." Fang Xuanling turned to look at Du Ruhui and Eldest Sun Wuji, and said, "Old Du, Old Sun, have you ever seen this kind of grain?" ”

"I haven't seen it." Du Ruhui and the two shook their heads.

Who will ever see this black bump.

Li Feng was very happy to see Li Er, but when he saw the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling behind him, he asked, "Lao Li, are those two your friends?" ”

"Yes, let me introduce you to you, Lao Du, Lao Sun, my good friend, a good friend who has shared hardships for more than ten years." Li Er emphasized that the eldest grandson Wuji and Du Ruhui are his friends, and they can even be said to be brothers who share life and death.

Li Feng nodded and asked, "By the way, have you become an official?" ”

"Dang, dang, Lao Fang and I are both officials, but I am a little unhappy with you, in fact, you should be an official, everything is you in charge of the overall situation." Li Er said.

Li Feng shook his hand and said: "Come on, I'm not interested in being an official, I'm still more interested in farming and making money." ”

"You're talking about farming, that's all these lumps?"

"What lumps, this is called potatoes, which are both grain and vegetables, and now there is no land for me to grow them. Otherwise, the people of the world can solve the problem of food and clothing. ”

"Bragging, just relying on this little potato can solve a problem that no dynasty can solve for thousands of years, and I'm not afraid of losing my big teeth when I say it." The eldest grandson Wuji said disdainfully.

I thought what kind of genius Li Feng was, but I didn't expect to be a braggart king, which was really disappointing.

Li Er also felt that Li Feng was bragging, but it was not easy to speak, and now that the eldest grandson Wuji said it, he wanted to see how Li Feng explained.

Du Ruhui was also a little shocked by Li Feng's words, no one in the world dared to say that he would solve the problem of eating for people in the world.

Fang Xuanling frowned slightly, thinking that Li Feng was not untargeted, so the problem was the potato, he picked up a potato cube and looked at it curiously, but he couldn't see anything, he could only look at Li Feng.

"It's over, it's over, the young master is talking nonsense again." Fauber was secretly anxious in his heart.

Li Feng smiled slightly and said, "Old Sun, it's the first time I want to meet you, and it's normal for you not to believe me." Normally, I should explain to you, but I'm too lazy to explain, so why don't we make a bet? ”

The crowd was interested.

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned: "Dare to bet with the old man, I haven't seen such a person for a long time, okay, the old man bet with you." ”

Li Feng cracked his mouth: "Since that's the case, let's make a bet." ”

"Whatever you want to bet, I'm happy to accompany you."

"Okay, let's bet on a Zhuangzi, it doesn't need to be too big, sometimes 300 acres of fertile land, 50 households are enough." Li Feng smiled.

The eldest grandson Wuji frowned slightly: "I can take out Zhuangzi to bet with you, but you don't seem to have Zhuangzi to bet with me, right?" ”

"But I have money, 100,000 yuan should be enough to buy such a small village, right?"

"More than enough." Fang Xuanling said.

Du Ruhui also said: "Xiao Li, shopkeeper, if you gamble with Lao Sun for 100,000 yuan, you will suffer a loss." ”

"If you win, you don't lose."

Li Er's expression moved, and he said, "Okay, then I will be the notary." Li Feng, old grandson, are you willing? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said with some compliments: "I can't ask for it." ”

Li Feng nodded: "I also agree." ”

"Okay, then the bet is officially established."

With the establishment of the gambling contract, the atmosphere in the tavern began to liven up. The only person who worries is Fauber, who is afraid that Li Fengfeng will return to the past and lose all his hard-earned wealth again.

Li Feng saw the uneasiness in Fu Bo's eyes, smiled, and didn't explain much.

Li Er looked at the potato cubes in the sack curiously, and said with a smile: "Li Feng, can you give me a little bit of this thing?" ”

"Yes, I'll give you a copy later, you can take it home and plant it, and you will have a harvest in three months." Li Feng said generously.

"Thank you."

"I also want a few, I don't know if Xiao Li's shopkeeper is okay?" Du Ruhui asked.

Li Feng didn't think about it, and said: "Of course you can, you are a friend of Lao Li and Lao Fang, and of course you are also my friend." Not to mention the potato wedges, even if you ask for a few jars of good wine. ”

In his opinion, potatoes are as expensive as wine.

"Lao Li, Lao Sun, since the gambling contract has been made, in order to prevent others from saying that I cheated, we will now go to Lao Sun's Zhuangzi, plant all these potatoes in his field, let his farmer plant them, and see the results in three months. How is it? ”

"In such a hurry?" Li Er was a little surprised.

The eldest grandson Wuji chuckled: "Shopkeeper Xiao Li, are you so eager to give me 100,000 yuan?" ”

"Old Sun, it won't take three months to know if you win or lose, and it's too early to draw conclusions." Li Feng went back.

"It's really not to hit the south wall and not look back, the old man will fulfill you, just wait for three months to win or lose, and the old man will make you lose dumbfounded."

"Each other, each other." Li Feng said, "Now we will go to your Zhuangzi and plant these potatoes in the field." ”

"Okay, let's go now." Eldest Sun Wuji stood up and said.

"Wait." Fang Xuanling said, "What's the hurry, Lao Li, don't forget that we still have something to do." Li Feng, tomorrow, tomorrow we will come to you, and then we will drop potatoes and seeds. ”

Li Feng bowed his head and said: "I can do it, these potato pieces won't spoil so easily." ”

"Okay, Lao Li, let's go back."

Li Er remembered his purpose and nodded: "Yes, we still have important things, we will come back tomorrow." ”

Li Feng stood up and said, "Then don't delay your business, I'll send you." ”

……

Temple of Manna.

Li Er said: "Auxiliary, you are too impulsive, why did you agree to make a bet with Li Feng?" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji spread his hands and said, "Your Majesty, it's not your fault that Weichen is not to blame, they were all forced by Li Feng to drive ducks to the shelves." ”

"Forget it, I don't want to pursue you, but I'm afraid that you won't look good if you lose to Li Feng."

"Your Majesty, do you believe that the potatoes in Li Feng's hands can solve the problem of eating for the people?" Eldest Sun Wuji asked.

Li Er shook his head: "I believe that Li Feng will not be untargeted, forget it, it's useless to say anything now, you will prepare Zhuangzi after you go back, and we will see what kind of surprise this potato will bring us." ”

"Yes." The eldest grandson, Wuji, also stopped discussing this topic.

Li Er spoke again: "I already know that Li Feng wants a Zhuangzi and good land, and Shangshu Province intends to give him all the thousands of acres of fertile land in Wannian County, plus a mansion." ”

"Your Majesty, will there be too many acres of fertile land?" Fang Xuanling was a little surprised.

Such a big hand, even if the princess and some princes don't have such treatment, how can this Li Feng be able to do it, even if he helps the court solve the food problem, this is too much.

Li Er smiled and said: "It's not much, I believe that what I pay will be rewarded a thousandfold, ten thousand times." ”

"This ......"

"Old house, needless to say, what Your Majesty said makes sense, how can there be a return if you don't pay." Du Ruhui interrupted Fang Xuanling's words.

Li Er opened his mouth and said: "Du Qing also agrees with my proposal, then send it down, and give it to Li Feng tomorrow and let Tang Jian pass on the holy decree." ”

"Yes."

"Alright, let's all step down."

"The ministers are leaving."

Leaving the Ganlu Palace, Fang Xuanling grabbed Du Ruhui and asked, "Old Du, what do you mean?" ”

Du Ruhan said with a smile: "Of course it's good to sell Li Feng, now that Your Majesty takes such a fancy to Li Feng, this son will definitely enter the court in the future." With Li Feng's ability, do you think his achievements will be lower than you and me in the future?

Besides, although a thousand acres of fertile land seems to be a lot, in fact, it is not much at all, which of us does not have so much fertile land, auxiliary machinery, Xiao Shiwen, you, me, etc., in addition to fertile land, there are many industries, mines, restaurants, cloth villages, blacksmithing workshops, etc., who does not have?

Now that Your Majesty has taken a fancy to Li Feng, we will push the boat down the river and buy a favor for both Your Majesty and Li Feng, why not? ”

"You're cunning." Fang Xuanling also showed a sly smile.

"I don't believe you don't think so." Du Ruhan said with a smile.

Fang Xuanling smiled: "But I didn't actually take action, but you said it." ”

"Hehe......"

Flying incense hall.

After listening to Li Er's story, the eldest grandson smiled and said, "Second brother, this is the heart of love." ”

Li Er nodded: "I didn't expect that the young man I and Xuan Ling rescued casually that day would have such knowledge.

During the drought, there was no one in the court who could solve the disaster relief matter the fastest and most effectively, Li Feng did it, he not only helped the court, but also earned himself more than 200,000 yuan.

Guanyin, do you think this money is so easy to make? Why are the treasury and the treasury empty? ”

"The second brother wants Li Feng to help the second brother make money, right?" Empress Eldest Sun said.

Li Er smiled and said, "He has this ability, I don't mind the silver in the treasury and my inner treasury, and you have a little more fat powder money."

But what I care about most is what he said, if there is any trouble, you can go to him, I really want to know, I can't solve the trouble, how he is a Tian Shelang. ”

The eldest grandson said with a smile: "As soon as the second brother said this, the concubine also wanted to see what kind of genius this young man named Li Feng was." ”

"I want to see you, then let's go together tomorrow."
