On the third day, when the sky was just dawning, the three acres of fields in the entire East Palace began to gather with ministers.

People were talking about Li Chengqian's land harvest today.

There is a humane: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince boasted that there is grain in Haikou today that can solve the problem of the great drought in Shandong, but I don't know whether it is true or not." ”

"I see that the prince is very busy all day long, how can he have time to manage any crops."

"What can you do with these three acres? I have never heard that three acres of land can solve the food problem of tens of millions of people! ”

"He's not a farmer, how can he know how to farm? It's nothing more than pleasing His Majesty. ”

……

Most people still choose not to believe that Li Chengqian can do this.

Cheng Yanjin was also on the spot, and he was not happy when he heard it.

"When has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ever let us down?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt that this seemed to be the case.

But there are still people who are skeptical, and just because they don't say it doesn't mean they will affirm.

The ministers had mixed opinions about everything Li Chengqian had done, and suddenly at this time, a small yellow door shouted, "Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Empress has arrived!" ”

Only then did the crowd stop talking.

"See Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen!"

And the ministers saluted.

"Let's go inside!"

Li Shimin said, so many ministers went to the three acres of fields, and Li Chengqian was already preparing the harvest inside.

As soon as he saw Li Shimin coming, he walked over.

"Meet Your Majesty and Her Royal Highness!"

The ministers waited

"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Huh? Gao Ming, I heard that you are going to harvest today, and what is this harvest? ”

Li Chengqian didn't hide it anymore at this time, and there was nothing to hide.

He said, "Your Majesty, what your son wants to harvest today is potatoes. ”

Potato?

A minister literally said, "But the beans that grow in the soil? ”

Uh, seems to explain it that way......

But it's not like that.

"Actually, it's just a scientific name. Just like Zhang San and Wang Si, it's just a name. ”

In this way, the minister felt a little embarrassed.

As the saying goes, if you say too much, you will lose, and that's what you say.

But Li Chengqian did not delve into it, but continued: "The crops we are going to produce today can solve half of the famine problem in my Tang Dynasty." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was puzzled, after all, these words made people feel very exaggerated and unrealistic.

But it was from the mouth of Li Chengqian, who was true to his word, that everyone was very contradictory, did they choose to believe or not believe?

Li Shimin was a little shocked and asked, "Oh?" Just this acre of land? ”

"Your Majesty, the seeds brought by this acre of land only need two seasons to spread potatoes all over the farmland near Chang'an, and in less than three years, the problem of famine will be solved."

He didn't say corn, if it was corn, then it would only take two seasons to plant thousands of acres of land, and that would be the real supplement! Since then, there has been no shortage of food in the Tang Dynasty, and everyone has enough to eat.

At this time, Zhang Liang came out and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, is this an exaggeration?" ”

Now there are not many people who dare to come out and fight against Li Chengqian, and the only one who can make him remember his name is Zhang Liang, who has been demoted two levels in a row.

No matter how you say it, Zhang Liang is also a generation of heroes.

Li Chengqian actually still needs this kind of person, and when it is special, he can also assist.

At the same time, someone said, "If I don't believe it, we have a famine problem for a long time, and to be honest, it is very big to solve it in a short period of time." ”

How do these turtles know the yield of potatoes? If they knew, they probably wouldn't have said it.

You know, potatoes have a lot of benefits, and they are easy to eat.

"I want to see what you're going to do!"

Empress Eldest Sun also said

"I'm also very curious about what kind of surprise Gao Ming can bring us today!"

As a mother, Empress Changsun still believes in Li Chengqian very much, so she has no doubts about what Li Chengqian said.

But the ministers are very suspicious, since this is the case, then the contrast will become larger, then, it will definitely be able to cause some huge shocks, and by the way, collect some points, and stabilize!

So Li Chengqian said, "Why don't we play a game like this?" ”

As soon as Li Chengqian's words came out, everyone was very puzzled.

Li Shimin asked with interest, "Oh? What a game, let's talk about it. ”

"To verify that what I'm saying is true, let's guess how much potatoes can be produced per acre?"

That's interesting.

"It's okay to dare to be affectionate, it's just a little fun."

"Yes, yes, I remember that the yield of wheat per mu in Datang is only about three stones."

In the Tang Dynasty, one stone was equal to one hundred and twenty catties, and the agricultural level at that time was very low, and the yield per mu was more than 300 catties.

"I guess, no more than five stone at most."

"Five stones? I'm afraid you've guessed too much, three stones are the most, after all, how much can these green things weigh? ”

Some people have seen the surface, if these potato plants are counted, it probably is not this number. I can't get a hundred pounds.

These people even began to guess low.

No one guessed more than ten stones, because no one saw the real thing, and no one believed.

Li Chengqian was thinking about guessing in his heart, the more outrageous the guess, the better, and it hurt to hit his face.

"It seems that everyone is very unhappy with my results, but it doesn't matter, you will know in a moment how wrong you are."

Li Chengqian said.

is so confident that Zhang Liang on the side can't stand it.

"How much does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince think?"

Li Chengqian made a gesture of three.

Zhang Liang took a look. "Three stones? Sure enough, I still didn't guess wrong, how to solve people's food and clothing problems with such a little output! ”

"Who said three stones? It's thirty stones! Nothing more, no less! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar, and some people thought that Li Chengqian must be crazy, thirty stones, which is equivalent to ten times the original output, and I am afraid that there is no grain in this world that can reach this number.

At least that's what these turtles think in their hearts.

At the same time, this also alarmed Li Shimin.

He did not doubt this number, but said, "If it is really ten times the existing generation, then there will be no more famine in my Datang!" The population of our Datang will continue to increase, and the frontier of our Datang will be protected to the maximum. ”

With these grains, which are produced in an unnatural manner, this nation may be able to get rid of the cycle of history, and without hunger, it will have the energy to look to the outside world.

At the same time, his mood was excited, but in the opinion of the ministers, it was also if.

"Since you don't believe it, then I can only prove it to you. Come on, start the harvest! ”

Li Chengqian gave an order, and everyone moved.
