Chapter 716: Queue up to plough the land
The place of farming this time is outside the city, very close to Zhao Yin's original pit chief Sun Wuji's office.
"My son has been dark again lately!"
After coming to the destination, Li Er saw Li Ke, who was already waiting here.
The current prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Tai is obsessed with scientific research, while Li Ke is obsessed with agriculture!
Of course, all this is thanks to Zhao Yin, who guided the two in this direction.
Lest you nest in the palace all day long, thinking only about who can be the crown prince!
"Recently, Erchen is studying grafting technology to see if he can cultivate new varieties, so his complexion is slightly darker!"
Li Ke smiled.
Although studying agriculture requires spending all day in the wind and sun, he lived a very fulfilling life!
"Horse, you're just in time, I'm looking for you!"
When Li Ke saw Zhao Yin, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Looking for a pony?"
Zhao Yin was stunned for a moment, and then asked.
He doesn't know much about agriculture, but at most he can help him search for everything!
"I heard that you and the royal brother are married, so when this king gives birth to a daughter, he will also marry into your family!"
Li Ke said not to be outdone.
"Okay......!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yin couldn't help but hold his forehead.
But he couldn't refute him in public, so he had to nod.
I'm afraid my son will be busy in the future!
"Hey ......! I said, you boy, why is it always your son who marries our royal daughter, can't you let your daughter marry into the royal family? ”
Hearing this, Li Er was not happy at that time.
It's as if his grandchildren are so bad!
"My daughter is very precious, not just anyone can take it away, if anyone wants to marry my daughter, first of all, my daughter must nod!"
In fact, he is not against marrying into the royal family, but wants his daughter to marry someone he likes like in later generations.
"Haha, okay, I believe that my grandson will not be bad, and he will definitely marry your boy's daughter!"
Li Er nodded, obviously very confident in his genes.
"Your Majesty, the matter of farming is ready!"
At this moment, an official came to report.
"Okay, let's get started!"
Li Er nodded, slightly excited.
Because this year's pro-ploughing is very different from previous years, this time it is not an ordinary plough, but a tractor.
"Your Majesty, the concubine has been here for a long time, why haven't you seen the ploughing ox?"
Hearing that everything was ready, Empress Eldest Sun looked around the cultivated land.
But I didn't find any shadow of the ploughing cow at all, so I couldn't help asking.
"Because I'm going to drive a tractor to plow the land today!"
Li Er rubbed his hands excitedly, looking eager to try.
"Your Majesty, this tractor needs to be professionally trained!"
Zhao Yin hurriedly stopped.
Although the tractor is not fast, if it is not driven properly, let alone ploughing the land, it is good not to cause any accidents!
"You kid really don't look down on me, I've been practicing for a long time for today!"
Li Er glared fiercely.
"Okay!"
Zhao Yin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Tractors are actually not difficult to drive, as long as they are professionally trained, they will definitely be fine.
Some of the imperial historians who were originally about to dissuade also hurriedly swallowed their words back, after all, Li Er had practiced, and if he jumped out to oppose it again, he would definitely be reprimanded!
At the same time, some ministers sighed, the current era is really different, even His Majesty has learned driving skills, if they don't know, they won't even be worthy of farming in the future!
In order to be more down-to-earth, Li Er deliberately wore coarse linen clothes, rolled up his sleeves at the moment, and walked onto the tractor on the edge of the field.
Lin Wu helped him light the fire and add charcoal, and after a while, the tractor began to smoke with a clattering sound.
"Yin'er, is this tractor safe?"
Although a series of operations were completed in one go, Empress Changsun was a little worried.
"The queen mother can rest assured, as long as it is operated properly, this tractor is much safer than ploughing cattle!"
Ploughing cattle are thoughtful, and once they are unhappy, they may even rebel.
But the machine is different, as long as it is trained, it is completely fine to operate.
Even if there is an accident, Li Er can still choose to jump out of the car!
"That's good!"
With the guarantee of his son-in-law, the eldest grandson queen is relieved.
As soon as the words fell, Li Er had already started to operate the tractor.
Put the plough down, then press the accelerator lightly, and the tractor will drive slowly, and the cold ground behind it will be easily cut through by the improved plow!
"If this land is ploughed by oxen, I am afraid it will take a lot of effort!"
Dai Xuan stepped on the uncultivated land around him and said with emotion.
"Yes, the ground is hard after a winter!"
The other ministers nodded their heads.
Datang attaches great importance to agriculture, and each of the officials has a job to farm, even if they don't cultivate it themselves, they also know some common sense!
"Father is so good!"
Li Zhi and Jin Yang watched their father drive a tractor, they were very envious, and they both applauded.
In the past, when they were ploughing, all the ministers had to go up to help, but this time it was changed to mechanization, and they could only stand on the ground and watch.
No way, who said they couldn't drive!
None of them expected that His Majesty would secretly learn driving skills!
In addition to Li Er, there is also a group of people who are busy with this matter.
That is the reporter of the newspaper, and Yan Liben.
The reporter needs to record Li Er's words and deeds, and Yan Liben has to take pictures of all this and illustrate it for the newspaper.
The usual pro-farming is just a formality, and it's okay to plow some casually.
But this time, Li Er has been immersed in the joy of driving a tractor, and before he knew it, an hour had passed, and then he drove back unsatisfied.
"This tractor is really a ploughing artifact, and it must be manufactured in large quantities!"
Li Er got off the tractor and said with a smile.
"A lot has been made now, and it must be helpful for spring ploughing!"
Zhao Yin opened his mouth leisurely.
Although he didn't bother to ask about these things, from time to time Lin Wu would go to his house to report, even if he didn't want to hear it, he had to listen.
"Virtuous nephew, can you help my family plow the land first?"
Wei Chigong hurriedly squeezed to Zhao Yin's side and asked.
"Virtuous nephew, don't listen to him, I have a lot of land, you should help me first!"
Cheng Yanjin also came over and said not to be outdone.
Although I have made a lot of money by investing in the business now, I still have a plot about the land, and I always think that there is a sense of security only with land!
"Who dictates that more arable land should be given priority? Can't we plow first if we have less? ”
"As far as your family's cultivated land is concerned, just find a ploughing cow, and you can't use a tractor!"
The two of them were still arguing, and they both wanted to use the tractor first.
"Don't make any noise, let's start lining up now, and use it in order of priority!"
Zhao Yin was really shocked by their quarrel, and said impatiently.
"I'll speak first, I'll use it first!"
Of course, Wei Chigong didn't let it, and he was bound to compete for the first.
"Then I'm the second!"
Although Cheng Yanjin was unwilling, he had no choice but to admit it.
"I'm third!"
"I'm fourth!"
……
All the old goods have opened their mouths to sign up.
"You have the ability to quarrel, and the land is all planted!"
Li Er's eyes stood and he opened his mouth to reprimand.
According to convention, no matter how much land is cultivated, it must be planted.
But Li Er was patronizing and enjoying himself just now, completely forgetting about this stubble, and he was dumbfounded when it was time to sow seeds!
How long will these acres of land be planted?
