The affairs of the Women's and Children's Hospital will naturally be taken care of by the Zhang family, and Merton is at home wholeheartedly accompanying the pregnant Princess Changle, even the most popular event in the Western Regions in Chang'an City, Merton has no interest in the slightest, and he has not taken half a step out of Mofu at all, which makes Hu Shang, who is waiting for Merton to spend a lot of money, can't help but be disappointed.

Fortunately, the acquisition of the Mo family has not been stopped, but where the books and seeds of the Western Regions are still purchased by the children of the Mo family at a large price, and some strange things are not purchased for Princess Changle to play, but all this is missing the arrogance of the Mo family, and it always feels exciting.

"Xianggong, please see, this is a medical book that records the countries of the Western Regions, and it is of great reference significance for my Tang Dynasty doctors." Although the two of them didn't go out, good things were sent to Mofu in a steady stream, and when they saw the medical book Princess Changle in front of them, they were like a treasure.

Merton's cheeks couldn't help twitching, it was just some outdated medical skills of the Tang Dynasty, but it cost Mojia Village five gold leaves, but Rao was like this, and the behavior of Mojia Village's daughters buying horse bones could not be stopped.

Fortunately, this event in the Western Regions was not without its harvest, as a Hu merchant presented Princess Changle with a small bag of apple seeds and a well-preserved apple, which is said to be the only one that saved a full box of apples from Persia.

Looking at the dehydrated red apples in front of him, he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, the apples in front of him were not as big as the apples of later generations, but the fruits that were transported by Hu Shang were already the best ones, and the quality was not bad.

"Young Master, that Hu Shang is still waiting."

Morton looked at the red apple in front of him, his heart moved, and he said loudly: "Let him wait for a while, let the Mo family disciple carve a pure gold apple and reward him, no, this is not a reward, but exchange the golden apple for his red apple." ”

Immediately, a child of the Mo family came in and glanced at the apple, nodded, bowed and retreated, the most important thing for the Mo family is the carving talent, which is almost the basic skill of the children of the Mo family.

"Swap golden apples for red apples!" Princess Changle couldn't help but roll her eyes, and immediately knew that the mistake of Morton's ruined family had been committed again.

Fu Bo was also dumbfounded, such a large amount of pure gold was bought, so how precious this apple should be.

"Why do you think it's not worth it?" Morton looked at everyone's surprised expressions and smiled slightly.

"But it's just a fruit, can it be as precious as Johor rice?" Princess Changle was puzzled, Merton's hand was as crazy as hearing about Johor rice.

"Naturally, it is not as good as Johor rice, but it is not far behind, if Johor rice doubles the yield south of the Yangtze River, and this fruit can benefit the north of the Yellow River, what do you say is its value?" Merton said mysteriously.

"Oh!"

Everyone was suddenly shocked, and they couldn't help but listen, if this fruit can really benefit the Yellow River immensely, then this bit of gold is naturally extremely worthwhile.

"Although this fruit has been dehydrated when sent here, but it is not properly stored, if it is through my hands, it will greatly extend the storage time of apples, and it will be as fresh as ever when stored for up to half a year, and half a year, the merchants of Datang are enough to sell this fruit to the entire Datang, the lady can imagine that the fruit can be used by the people of Datang for half a year, and most of the time is in the cold winter, what a treasure it will be, and how can it not be worth this bit of gold." Merton said with a smile.

Apples are said to be the easiest to store fruit in later generations, even if it is stored in the local method for a few months, it is not a problem, if it is directly put in cold storage, it is enough to eat all year round, you can imagine what a vast market once apples are popularized in Datang.

Moreover, there is no fruit in Datang in winter, apples ripen in October, and storage for half a year is enough to support them until March and April of the following year, when flowers and fruits are everywhere, it is simply a solution to the fruit problem of Datang in winter.

"Of course, the most important thing is that this apple is sweet and juicy, and it tastes very good, which is most suitable for pregnant women like Niangzi." With a knife in his hand, Merton slashed a thin layer of apple skin, revealing the white flesh inside.

Merton cut the flesh again, and the baby left the seeds, and then handed the apple pulp cut into small pieces to Princess Changle.

Princess Changle picked up a piece of pulp and put it in her mouth, and suddenly a sweet juice filled her taste buds, and she praised it again and again: "It's really delicious." ”

Such a fruit is extremely delicious, and can be stored for a long time, if it can be popularized on a large scale, not only the north of the Yellow River can benefit immensely, even the south of the Yangtze River can also enjoy this fruit, so that Merton exchanged an apple-sized gold for such a vast market, which can be said to be worth a thousand dollars.

"I'll just say, how can the prime minister do a loss-making business." Princess Changle had a great appetite and ate the flesh of an apple in three or two clicks.

"Young master, the golden apple has been carved." After a while, Fauber came to pay his respects, and the report in his hand was holding a pure gold apple, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The children of the Mo family are highly skilled, and the pure gold is very easy to carve, this apple can be said to be extremely similar to the carving.

"Then give it to that Hu Shang!" Merton waved his hand, a piece of pure gold is far less expensive than the small bag of apple seeds in his hand, which is the guarantee of the future Datang winter fruits.

"Yes!" Fu Bo bowed and left, and soon Hu Shang's surprised cheers came from outside the mansion.

Soon, the news that Mo Jiazi bought a red apple with a pure gold apple spread throughout Chang'an City as quickly as possible.

In the West Market, a group of Hu merchants couldn't help but be excited, Merton's promise was still valid, apples were not rare in the Western Regions, many people had heard of them, many people couldn't help but regret it, and sent apples, isn't this golden apple theirs.

And the citizens of Chang'an are even more discussed, even if there is a ruin of the Mo family's defeat every year, but they are still smacking their tongues for such a big deal by Merton.

"It's just an extraterritorial strange fruit, and the Mo family actually bought it with fist-sized gold, which is simply a ruin." A miser-like landlord was heartbroken, and all his belongings were probably not worth this piece of gold, and the Mo family used it to buy a fruit.

"I heard that this fruit bought for a lot of money was eaten by Her Royal Highness the Princess, this is probably the most expensive fruit ever!" A citizen smacked his tongue and said, "If a fruit is bought with the same amount of gold, I'm afraid that the emperors since ancient times will be reluctant."

"What do you know, when did the Mo family ever do a loss-making business, this fruit is a foreign strange fruit, the Mo family took its fruit and cultivated it by the Mo family, and everyone in the world can enjoy this fruit at that time, I'm afraid that you don't see Mojia Village making money." One merchant snorted.

Mo's spending a lot of money on exotic books and seeds is well known, and a spinach and the ongoing promotion of Johor rice have proven the correctness of Merton's approach.

Johor rice far away in Lingnan people may not know, but spinach is shining in Chang'an City, Mojia Village just bought spinach leaves has made a lot of money, not to mention that since Merton allocated half of the spinach to the Women's and Children's Hospital, the price of spinach has skyrocketed by three percent, and the money that Mojia Village is now making has already exceeded the amount of spinach seeds bought by Moton by a hundred times.
