Chapter 103: Really? Fake?
"Cochin? The rice planted over there? ”
Looking at the rice seeds spread out on the ground, Fang Fengzhu looked at it again and again excitedly, and said excitedly: "King, this is the kind of ...... you said Well, rice that can be double-harvested in a year? ”
"Haha, that's not necessarily!"
Haha, Li Yuanjia shook his head and said happily.
Cochin, Champong, or Linyi...... In Li Yuanjia's memory, there are many versions of the origin of double-cropping rice in one year, and it is not clear which one is true, the only thing that can be determined is that it should not be too far away from China, otherwise it would not have been transmitted in the Song Dynasty.
Anyway, it must be right for people to find rice that can be harvested twice a year.
But what Li Yuanjia didn't expect was that it would be so fast, how long had he given this order, and someone had sent rice seeds?
Merely......
was originally excited, but after listening to her husband's words at this time, the smile on Fang Fengzhu's face suddenly froze: "Huh? Why not necessarily? ”
"Hehe, because I haven't tried it."
Blinking at the princess who was a little puzzled, Li Yuanjia said with a smile: "You know, what I want is not so easy to find, otherwise...... Hehe, why has no one ever found rice that crops twice a year? But this time, it didn't take long for the results to come ......"
"Huh? You mean ......"
Hearing this, Fang Fengzhu couldn't help it, Fang Fengzhu's eyes widened and he whispered.
But after covering her mouth for a moment, she immediately shook her head and said, "No, it's unlikely, right?" Would anyone really have the audacity to deceive the king? ”
"Haha, what's not to dare to do?"
After listening to her words, Li Yuanjia was immediately happy: "Money can make ghosts grind, there are many people in this world who dare to kill people for one or two pieces of money, not to mention that the reward I give is at least 1,000 yuan...... Belch! ”
As he spoke, Li Yuanjia's voice broke off.
Because he found that he had said the wrong thing again - the phrase that money can make ghosts grind is not a "common saying" that should appear during the Zhenguan period. But it was too late to come back to his senses at this time, because Fang Fengzhu obviously noticed this sentence, and was blinking his eyes desperately, and said with an exclamation on his face: "Money can make ghosts grind...... This sentence is really good, and it points out the most important place at once! But...... Are they not afraid of your wrath? ”
"Hehe, what are you afraid of?"
Glancing at the rice seeds on the ground, Li Yuanjia's expression was a little intriguing: "This is not something else, you can tell the truth from the fake by looking at it." It's a rice seed, you have to plant it, and it will take a few months to know the results, and then you know where they will be? ”
"This ......"
When she heard this, she was slightly stunned, and Fang Fengzhu was speechless.
Well, she really didn't think about it.
However, after pouting, Fang Fengzhu's eyes when she looked at her husband lit up significantly - the king could think of the key point at once, and it was really powerful! You know, this is a rice seed that can be harvested twice a year, and Fang Fengzhu, who has been "popularized" with relevant knowledge before, is very clear about the importance of this thing, so if you hear the news that someone has sent rice seeds at first glance, you will definitely be excited and difficult to yourself, where will you think about the question of whether the rice seed is true or false?
Sure enough, it's still the king!
Li Yuanjia didn't know what the princess was thinking at this time, or even if she knew, she wouldn't care, because he had seen the same thing in his previous life and heard too much. Especially in the hospital, where almost all the contradictions in the whole society are concentrated, even more incredible things are commonplace, not to mention the kind of fraud and merit?
Just this legendary Champa rice, who knows what it looks like?
The only way to do this is to find a place to actually plant it, and then wait until it is confirmed before giving a reward...... Now the only question is, are those people willing to wait?
"Back to the king, they said they couldn't stay in Chang'an for a long time!"
After coming back in the afternoon, Han Lucheng immediately came to Li Yuanjia and said with a gloomy face: "I told them that if they stay in Chang'an, we will provide them with food and lodging, and the result is ...... I have always said that I have parents to take care of at home, and I must go back quickly! ”
"Huh."
Smiling lightly, Li Yuanjia didn't say much.
It would be false to say that there was not the slightest disappointment in his heart, after all, he was really ecstatic when he heard that someone had brought the rice seeds that were harvested twice a year, and he laughed in the yard. Later, I remembered the experience of my previous life, so I asked Han Lucheng to ask, and the result was ......
Anyway, when he looked at the rice seeds on the ground again, Li Yuanjia had no fluctuations in his heart.
Eat, drink, and live, just let them wait for the results of the trial planting in Jiangnan, and then they can get a large bounty, where can they find such a good thing? As a result, it is inferred that there are parents to take care of at home, and they are unwilling to stay, and the meaning is self-evident.
So after laughing, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but sigh softly.
To be honest, it's annoying!
Speaking seriously, he didn't expect to get the legendary Champa rice so early. After all, this thing is not in the Tang Dynasty, which means that it must be in a very remote place, or a place that the Tang people have not set foot in, otherwise if you know that there is this kind of rice, you will definitely have to take it back and give it a try!
But these people give themselves a false hope, and it makes people very irritated.
Seeing that the king was unhappy, a cold light flashed in Han Lucheng's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "King, I'll send someone to take them down......
"Take it down? What do you do to others? ”
Although he was very unhappy, after listening to the housekeeper's words, Li Yuanjia still frowned, and asked angrily.
"This ......"
was stunned for a moment, and before Han Lucheng could speak, Li Yuanjia continued: "People sent rice seeds thousands of miles away, but they didn't do anything else. And the jury is still out on whether this rice seed is true or not, you tell me, what reason do you have to take them? ”
"But ......"
After hesitating for a moment, Han Lucheng said dryly: "Since they refuse to stay and wait for us to try planting, isn't it a sign of weakness?" ”
"Hehe, so what?"
Glancing at his housekeeper, Li Yuanjia said angrily: "In any case, we have no evidence that they sent fakes, so there is no reason to take them, understand?" ”
“…… Be. ”
The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and Han Lucheng was speechless for a moment.
Although he didn't dare to continue to refute, this reason was really difficult for him to convince him, and it was ...... You are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, how many liars do you need evidence? That's too much face, isn't it?
This time, Li Yuanjia saw his housekeeper's thoughts, shook his head slightly, and said indifferently: "Han Lucheng, you have to remember that this king wants rice seeds that are harvested twice a year!" As long as you can get rice seeds, it doesn't matter if you spend some extra money, or even be cheated once or twice...... Especially in a situation like this one, I must not take people at will without evidence, otherwise who will dare to help me find rice seeds in the future? ”
“…… Be. ”
After thinking about it for a while, this time Han Lucheng nodded and at the same time understood a little.
Even if the other party is a bold liar, he can't take people at will, especially when the king attaches great importance to the rice seed. After all, people's words are terrifying, and the truth of the facts cannot be widely publicized, so many people are afraid that they will only hear the news that someone sacrificed rice seeds and was then taken by King Han, and if it is exaggerated, there may be rumors that people were directly beheaded!
In this way, it will be very unfavorable to the king's plan.
So after pondering for a while, Han Lucheng opened his mouth and asked, "King, what ...... What about these people? And what about these rice seeds? ”
"Hehe, didn't you say that the rice seeds were left in a part of Jiangnan?"
"Yes, I left a lot."
Nodding, Han Lucheng said in a low voice: "When I heard you say that it was impossible to plant in the north, I kept an eye on it and asked them to leave half of the rice seeds in the south of the Yangtze River. ”
"Yes, very good!"
Nodding with satisfaction, Li Yuanjia said with a smile: "Then pass the order, let them start planting, try a few more times!" As for these people, let them leave an address, and then give them a round-trip fare, and let them go as they please......"
