In this era, Wang Zhi is a rare pioneer in the Ming Dynasty who opened his eyes to see the world, at least he is very good at settling accounts, as long as the imperial court officially allows the opening of the sea and the prohibition of trade, no amount of silver can be returned!

However, Qian Yuan didn't appreciate it, and sneered: "Fifty thousand two hundred and twenty thousand two hundred and twenty thousand taels"

"This is a cornucopia, be careful of a eunuch, knock you millions of taels!"

"When that time comes, will you give or not give"

Wang Zhi was shocked, knowing that this was likely to become a fact...... Not only scholars and civil officials, but also ordinary people have no good impression of eunuchs.

Eunuchs, except for making money, there seems to be no other hope in life.

Millions of taels ...... Wang Zhi couldn't take that much, and at that time, he offended the eunuchs, and he had no choice but to return to the Japanese country, and maybe the Japanese rebellion would rise again, and the trade would come to naught.

Qian Yuan coughed twice, "Tan Qizhi took a long time to go south this time, and in addition to food, he also transported some other goods back...... It's all on Zhoushan."

"On Zhoushan, Wang personally saw it the day before yesterday." Wang Zhi turned his head and looked at Xu Bixi.

"Stacked in the warehouse, a greeting, can be delivered to Hangzhou within ten days." Xu Bixi nodded, "Lord Qian, those goods ......"

"This must not be leaked." Qian Yuan said in an accentuated tone: "Whether the trade can last depends on whether this batch of goods can please Your Majesty." ”

Wang Zhi immediately turned around and looked at Mao Haifeng warningly, Xu Bixi and Mr. Fang are both cautious people, so Mao Haifeng's mouth is relatively large.

"Father-in-law, rest assured......" Mao Haifeng's words of assurance came out eloquently, "What is that batch of goods?"

"Don't ask if you don't know!" Wang Zhi scolded, turned his head and said, "By the way, the good things that Mr. left on the island brought over this time...... Coincidentally, Longquan Gong was also there. ”

Sunflowers, tomatoes, corn, peppers, and green beans were brought in one after another, and the seeds of these crops were all available to Qian Yuan, which were sent by Qian Hong twice before and after, and are now being planted and cultivated in Pengxi Town.

Qian Yuan glanced at his father and asked casually: "How to plant"

Qian Rui didn't dare to say more, so he replied simply: "Bury it in the soil and water it." ”

Wang Zhi, who also went to the ground when he was young, couldn't help but laugh, "What Mr. Fang said about this...... Let's get back to that. ”

"The yard at the back is big, so plant a batch first."

"Qian also has a yard in the county seat, and I will ask Mr. for guidance or two when the time comes."

Qian Yuan still hoped that his father could find a reason to reunite with his mother as soon as possible, but Qian Rui had scruples, so he didn't speak, just tilted his head and looked at Wang Zhi.

"Okay, okay, but Mr. Fang is a scholar, and Master Qian wants to hire ...... But it costs money. Wang Zhi joked with a smile, pointing to the two boxes brought in, "Longquan Gong, this is a strange flower and fruit sent by Nanyang, come and see"

Qian Yuan became interested, squatted down and opened the box, and a foul smell came to his nose.

"Why does it stink so much!"

"It's all rotten!"

"Didn't people put ice cubes on the road?"

"It's been dragged on for more than ten days, and it's stuffy in the cabin, and the ice is not useful."

Wang Zhi lost his temper at Xu Bixi and the others, Qian Yuan covered his nose and stepped forward, picking and picking with a knife.

Uh, there's mango, and there's pineapple, it's all tropical fruit, no wonder it rots so fast.

Go back and let Wang Zhi look for it, I don't know if there is durian, Qian Yuan can't stand the smell, but Xiao Qi likes it.

Wang Zhi scolded Xu Bixi with a face, and asked someone to bring a box in, opened it himself and looked at it before lifting the lid, and said with a smile: "This is no problem...... Please also ask Longquan Gong to take a look, this is the kind of crop with a very high yield per mu mentioned last time."

Oops, the sweet potatoes are finally here, Qian Yuan's eyes lit up, and he can eat roasted sweet potatoes tonight!

But when he walked over and took a closer look, damn it, it wasn't sweet potatoes, but potatoes!

Qian Yuan was both happy and speechless, potatoes are good things, with high yield per mu, drought tolerance, can be used as staple food and vegetables, and are also buried in the soil, which is quite similar to sweet potatoes.

"The fleet that went to Luzon brought back is said to have a very high yield per mu, and it can be planted in the mountains." Wang Zhi said proudly: "Those Westerners didn't confiscate it after checking it, and they came back with three big boxes." ”

"It's not this thing." Qian Yuan picked up the potatoes and weighed them, which were much smaller than the potatoes in the vegetable market in the previous life, "Let people look for them again, if it's not Luzon, then look for it elsewhere in the South Seas, it must be brought by Westerners." ”

"It's not"

"Hmm." Qian Yuan beckoned to Liang Sheng, "Carry this box back...... The owner of Wufeng will not refuse to agree."

"Uh......" Wang Zhi whispered, "Longquan Gong knows what this is"

"Artichoke." Qian Yuan thought for a long time before coming up with another name for potatoes, "Eat it like taro, go back and study it." ”

Anyway, there were guards carrying boxes, Qian Yuan simply pointed in the courtyard of the hall, "Bring this too, and that...... Mr. Fang, how to eat this"

"Golden ...... I put it in the pot and boiled it with water."

"Mr. Fang has seeds left anyway, bring more, bring more."

Check it out, sour and spicy shredded potatoes, sautéed green beans, pine nut corn, and tomato egg soup...... It's simple, it will definitely satisfy Xiao Qi, and maybe you can unlock a few new cheeses!

Qian Yuan's eyes were shining, and he pulled Wang Zhi and said, "How long will it take to return from the Nanyang side?"

"It's hard to say, it depends on the direction of the wind, but also depends on what kind of ship it is, not to mention that the South China Sea is also big."

"Just those fruits, send them as soon as possible next time, and there are thorns growing on the outside...... Like a chestnut, so big...... Go and ask, bananas, lychees, ......."

"Longquan Gong is going to be sent to the palace" Wang Zhi was puzzled: "I'm afraid it's too late." ”

"Just kidding, this thing was sent to the palace, and His Majesty ate it...... Those eunuchs are not allowed to hang themselves! ”

"Yes, yes."

"When Qian studies and researches, I will invite you to the banquet when I turn around...... There are also Brother Mao, Brother Xu, by the way, and Lao Tan...... Well, I can't forget Mr. Fang, and I have to ask Mr. for help. ”

Qian Rui originally thought that his son was just acting, but look at the joy in this guy's eyes...... It's really speechless, the son who didn't help the soy sauce bottle when it was poured back then is now a killer and a foodie.

The guards had already carried a few boxes to the carriage, and Qian Yuan was about to rush back in a hurry, so he pulled Wang Zhi and explained: "Two things, one is that the batch of goods in Zhoushan has been hidden, which is the key to whether the dust can settle on the trade matter in the court. ”

"Longquan Gong rest assured." Wang Zhi whispered: "They are all carefully selected, and there is absolutely no problem." ”

"That's good, two, that thing...... Sweet potato, sweet potato...... Anyway, hurry up and get it, whether you buy it or steal it or rob it. ”

"This may have to wait ......"

"Qian doesn't care." Qian Yuan shrugged, "But if you can send it over as soon as possible, in the name of Wufeng, you will scatter it to the more than 10,000 people, and let them take it home to try ......"

"Longquan Gong rest assured, Wang will do his best!" Wang Zhi immediately made up his mind.

This is a very simple truth, although the sea trade is prosperous, but for those ordinary farmers who are digging in the field, the most important thing is how much grain is produced.

In this case, if Wang Zhi popularizes sweet potatoes, a crop with a high yield per mu, not to mention anything else, at least his reputation among the people will inevitably be substantially improved.

"If there is anything else, go to Tang Jingchuan...... Let's go, don't send it. ”

Looking at the back of Qian Yuan and the many guards escorting the box away, Wang Zhi put away the flattering smile on his face, turned his head and asked, "Sir, what did Qian Zhan do to you today?"
