Maybe Bao Zheng thought that he had scolded Gan Qi away, but where did he think that Gan Qi turned around and came back after a while, followed by a few guards carrying boxes.

Bao Zheng was also a little stunned, he scolded like this, can this Gan Qi come back?

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, the eyes of watching the play, they couldn't help it if they wanted to endure it, they all looked at Bao Zheng, ready to see Bao Zheng go crazy again.

Bao Zheng did not disappoint them, blocked in the middle of the civil and military forces, pointed at Gan Qi and scolded again: "Shaft, do you really want to be embarrassed?" ”

Gan Qi was also uncomfortable, and replied: "Sir, the student really has auspicious things to offer, not to be ashamed." ”

"You...... You, formless child, don't hurry up and get down! "Bao Zheng is ready to come hard. He was afraid that Gan Qi would really come up with something strange, and then say a crooked reasoning and heresy, and then the audience would laugh, and then he would really not be able to get off the stage.

In fact, there are too many routines in the past dynasties, and to put it mildly, that is, to make a thing, and then raise the meaning and boast about it, mainly to blow the emperor's great achievements and move the heavens.

Bao Zheng couldn't do this kind of thing, and he knew that the old emperor would definitely beat Gan Qi when he waited, and naturally there were still some people who would fall into the ground. Gan Qi can be miserable, so that everyone can happily let go of Gan Qi's red clothes.

But Gan Qi can't really lose his face in the court, and he can't really make people look at him as a laughing stock. After all, he is going to be an official, and this official face can't really be gone.

When things came to this, Han Qi understood Bao Zheng's routine this time, and knew that Bao Zheng wanted to protect Gan Qi, so how could he fulfill Bao Zheng's wish?

Han Qi immediately spoke: "Eh, Bao Xianggong, Gan Zhizhou is a sincere heart, how can he hold it down?" Your Majesty and I also want to see the auspicious Rui offered by Gan Zhizhou, how can we say that if we don't offer it, we won't offer it? Isn't this also a deception? ”

The old emperor also smiled: "Haha...... Come, Gan Daojian brought Xiangrui up, so that I can have a good experience. ”

Bao Zheng is still in the way.

Gan Qi looked embarrassed and whispered, "Mr. Bao, the student...... This is really auspicious...... You see......"

Bao Zheng's face was about to turn black: "Do you really want to throw a face in front of everyone?" ”

Gan Qi hurriedly said: "The students are not here to lose face. ”

"Bao Qing, what are you still doing? Let Gan Daojian come near. "The old emperor really wants to see if Gan Qi can blow out a flower if he offers something.

The emperor spoke repeatedly, but Bao Zheng couldn't, so he stepped aside, and said softly: "You just do stupid things, you ......"

This sentence, angry and unhappy, expresses Bao Zheng's last helplessness as an elder.

Gan Qi arrived at the top with a few boxes and saw them.

"What is Xiangrui?" The old emperor stood up on the high platform, crossed his hands on his hips, and looked down.

Gan Qi lifted his feet, turned around, and looked at the people on the left and right, this feeling of offering treasures, somewhat has a bit of the taste of street showmanship, just like the sentence "Take a look and take a look, you can't buy a loss, you can't be fooled".

"The first auspicious piece of the minister is taken from thousands of miles away from the Western Regions, which can protect the people from the cold." Speaking of which, Gan Qi looked around the crowd again.

That Bao Zheng lowered his head, shook his head, sighed, and probably thought in his heart: You just do it, do it to death, and after doing it this time, you will know the long memory in the future.

"What's the deal? Tell me, what the hell is it? "The old emperor is tired of waiting.

Gan Qi nodded, well, it is this kind of effect, it has been called for a long time, and the old emperor can't wait.

Ganchi slowly opened a box, revealing a mass of white velvet.

Han Qi glanced at it and laughed: "Isn't this just washed wool?" ”

Gan Qi raised his voice and suddenly shouted, "Definitely! ”

"Not wool?" Han Qi leaned over to take a look again, a little embarrassed, it was really not wool, at first glance, it looked a bit like wool, and when he looked closer, it was very different from wool. Han Qi smiled awkwardly and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, this is really not wool. ”

"What is this?" The old emperor's curiosity also rose.

Gan Qi picked up some cotton, shook it, spun it around and shook it again.

Then turn around in a reverse circle and continue to shake it......

"Gan Daojian, what is this?" The old emperor is so annoying.

"Your Majesty, this thing is cotton, from the Western Regions, which can be woven cloth, wrapped in the sandwich of clothes to keep out the cold, and can be made into bedding in sweaty and cold nights. This weaving cloth is far less comfortable and durable than linen, and it is cheaper than silk, and it can keep out the cold better than silk. If this thing is made into a jacket and thickened slightly, the snow will no longer freeze people. Therefore this thing can protect the people from the cold. Gan Qi raised his head and said as he watched the reaction of the crowd.

The usefulness of this thing, after looking at the appearance, and listening to Gan Qi's words, no one will doubt it. It's just that the old emperor asked again: "How many times have you brought back to Beijing this time?" How much fabric and jacket can you make? Is it enough for all the people to wear? ”

"Your Majesty, the cotton that the minister brought back this time is inexhaustible and inexhaustible." Ganchi was pretending.

"Bastard, didn't you bring back an immortal?" The old emperor's mouth was crooked.

Han Qi was also laughing, the thing was a good thing, but it was too big.

Bao Zheng turned his back and didn't want to look at it anymore.

Gan Qi raised his sleeves, shook them, wrapped them around his arms, and then opened a box, grabbed a handful of small round things, and said, "Your Majesty, look, this is an inexhaustible supply of cotton." ”

"What is this? The elixir of immortals? Can it be turned into cotton? "The old emperor is ready to be angry, others offer auspicious rui, so you have to say a so, bragging must also be able to blow, blow well, the emperor is in a good mood, give a three melons and two dates, everyone is happy, that's it. Gan Qi here has developed in the direction of pure flickering.

"Your Majesty doesn't know that this cotton, in fact, is a plant, it is grown in the ground, this is the seed of cotton, as long as it is planted on the ground, countless cotton can be harvested in the coming year, which is far cheaper than wool and silk." Ganchi explained.

The old emperor had already come down directly from the high platform, and he looked incredulous: "This is a plant? Can plants grow hair? Don't you want to plant a sheep to go down? ”

"Yes, plants can grow hair!" Gan Qi was adamant.

Han Qi didn't believe it either, and said, "Gan Daojian, do you know what the crime of bullying the king is?" ”

"How dare the lower officials bully the king? Plants can grow hair, think about it, dandelions, do dandelions grow hair? It's just that dandelions have less hair, so it's not enough. This thing has a lot of hair, can be woven and tailored, and is excellent for keeping out the cold. In addition to the hair of birds and beasts, there is nothing more than cotton to keep out the cold, and the cotton yield is also extremely high, for the land is barren and fertile or not, there is no great requirement, cotton is also easy to survive, the north and south of the river, can be planted. Cotton is a hundred times better than silk, and ten thousand times better than linen. ”

Gan Qi's words made the old emperor frown, and picked up the cotton with his own hands, which felt comfortable, soft, and warm, and pulled it with both hands, and the toughness was still full.

In fact, cotton can not only be used to make clothes and quilts, but also not only to make cotton nails. Cotton also has a great use, that is, it is used to make paper, the cost of paper made of cotton is relatively high, but cotton paper has a great use, that is, to issue currency, wear-resistant, dirty, water-resistant, can circulate better, the texture is completely different from other paper, can also play an anti-counterfeiting effect.

The old emperor looked at Gan Qi, picked up the cotton seed and looked at it, this time he believed it, if Gan Qi dared to tell such a huge lie to deceive the emperor for this little thing, no one in the audience would believe it. Because this lie will not be told in a few months before it will be broken.

The old emperor was a little excited, and shouted directly: "Come on, hurry up and take this cotton seed to the harem to plant a piece of land." ”

"Your Majesty...... Don't worry, the best season for planting cotton is April to May, and now it's June, and it's past the season, but it's not impossible to plant at this time. It also needs to be watered more, and it is also necessary to cover the scorching sun, and when it sprouts and grows, the harvest should still be okay in late autumn, but the yield will be reduced. Gan Qi said.

"Then hurry up and plant, call Li Xian here, and let him take care of it." The benevolence of the old emperor is manifested in all aspects, if there is really something like cotton, I don't know how many people in the cold night to shelter.

The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and this time he couldn't laugh anymore, and Han Qi also frowned aside, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.

In fact, most people in the Manchu Dynasty are not happy, this Gandaojian and this cotton are offered, isn't he going to be promoted again?

So Gan Daojian is so lucky? After going out to be a man for more than a year, he encountered such a good thing? Which of the people present has not been a local official? Many people have even been officials in the north and south of the country, why don't they have the luck to come across a good thing?

At this time, Bao Zheng had already stepped forward, took the cotton and looked at it, and looked at it with the cotton seeds, and suddenly turned his head with a smile: "Well, Dao Jian has done a good job, this thing is really a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and His Majesty has a sense of benevolence and virtue in the heavens!" ”

Gan Qi glanced at Bao Zheng and thought, Master Bao, why did you tell me my lines? You're not that kind of person, and you've learned to tout and praise it?

"Hey...... Sir, what a blessing, isn't it? These are the words that came from Ganch's mouth.

"Well, it's Xiangrui, it's really a good Xiangrui." Bao Zheng stroked his beard, very pleased with Gan Qi, very happy with the cold artifact cotton, and forgot all the scolding just now.

This Master Bao is a little interesting today, turning his face is faster than turning a book, and he still turns several pages, which makes Gan Qi confused.

The old emperor asked again, "How many seeds did you bring back?" ”

"That's enough to plant hundreds of acres of land. As long as these hundreds of acres of land are harvested, the cotton seeds are gathered together, and then they are planted, and then they can be spread all over several state capitals. Ganchi replied.

The old emperor held a ball of cotton in his hand and kept rubbing it, nodded, and slowly went up to the high platform again, this auspicious rui, he was too satisfied, so the old emperor stood on the high platform, kneaded the cotton, smelled it, and said: "Knowing Quanzhou affairs Ganqi, into the auspicious Rui that benefits the country and the people, should be rewarded!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ganchi thanked him.

The old emperor stood on the high platform and said, "What do you think you should reward Gan Daojian for such great achievements?" ”

Han Qi lowered his head and did not speak.

That's embarrassing.

"Wait...... Your Majesty, ......" Gan Qi suddenly spoke.

"What? What do you think? The old emperor was still a little surprised, at this time, it shouldn't be the time for Gan Qi to speak.

"Your Majesty, isn't it, there are two auspicious things for the ministers, and there is only one thing that is offered to protect the people from hunger, but it has not been offered yet?" This old emperor has a bad memory.

"Yes, yes, what about the other one? Hurry up and give it, what is it? The old emperor was a little impatient, this time he believed Ganqi, and he also forgot about beating Ganqi to the clouds.

Gan Qi raised his head again and looked around the audience, enjoying everyone's curious eyes.

Then Ganchi lifted his hands up again, twined them, and tucked the cuff over his arm.

Looking at Ganchi again, he lifted one leg first, slowly lowered it, and lifted another leg...... It's just a background music of Peking Opera.

"Don't grind, hurry up these ......," the old emperor urged again.

"Yes." Gan Qi replied, turned around and opened a box, and said, "Your Majesty, all the officials, please look! ”

The civil and military officials, one by one, leaned their heads and stood on tiptoe, and there were still a few people who could see it, and those who couldn't see it wanted to squeeze forward, and they were afraid of losing their dignity.

The old emperor could see it, a little disappointed, took a few steps down, looked again, and was not mistaken, he was really a little disappointed, and said, "Isn't it just a box of grain?" What is so strange about the things of rice? ”

Han Qi also saw it clearly, and said: "Your Majesty, the things of rice protect the people from hunger, but they are not lying. ”

Han Qi: What does this mean? is implying that the emperor is playing a routine.

The old emperor still felt that what Han Qi said made sense, and nodded with a smile: "Well, the implication is good, this is the meaning of a good harvest, a good omen." ”

"No, no, Your Majesty is here one by one." Gan Qi knew that the old emperor had misunderstood.

"Tell me." The old emperor is going to listen to Gan Qi's sublimation and see how Gan Qi is eloquent and whether he can blow it.

"Your Majesty, this thing is from Champa, although it is rice, it is not ordinary rice. This rice is extraordinary, the only treasure in the world! Ganchi blew up.

It's just that it is different from the old emperor's expectations, and the old emperor asked with a smile: "Isn't this rice the fairy rice in the sky?" Eat one to fill your stomach? ”

"That'...... That's not it, if you want to be full, you have to eat a big bowl. ”

"Oh? That is, this thing can cure all diseases and prolong life? "The old emperor is in a very good mood now, and after getting cotton, he will look at Gan Qi again, how to look at it, how pleasing to the eye.

"This is not enough, this thing is a thing that is full of stomach, and it should not cure the disease."

"And what the hell is this thing so otherworldly?" The old emperor is either stupid, or he is in a good mood, and he is in a good mood, so he can make a fuss with Ganqi.

"Your Majesty, the plants in the world, there are evergreen, there are those who are prosperous and withered, and the plants and trees that are prosperous and withered, one year old and one withered, once a year, once a year, and the same is true of cereals. Only this thing, in the hot place in the south, can be dry and prosperous two seasons a year, the minister first got it, shocked by the heavens, and knew that the importance of this thing is more than cotton. After Gan Qi said this, he looked at the old emperor again, and the old emperor's expression did not change at all.

"Oh, twice a year? Is it? The old emperor only cared about the happiness just now, and he didn't react for a while, but after saying this, he reacted, and hurriedly glared and asked: "What, you said that this rice can be ripened twice a year?" ”

"Exactly, in summer and autumn, the south is hot, the sun is scorching, the sunshine is long, the same field, late summer and early autumn, late autumn. This rice can be harvested twice a year. ”

"This ......" The old emperor was stunned, looked at Gan Qi, and then looked at the people on the left and right.

Bao Zheng was also excited, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab a handful of rice and asked, "Dao Jian, what you said is true?" ”

"It's true, this rice is planted everywhere in the city, and it is harvested twice a year."

"This ...... Dao Jian, you have made great contributions, great achievements for thousands of generations. Bao Zheng was so excited that his hands were shaking, for farming civilization, although Gan Qi's move was not as good as Shennong's tasting of herbs, he could also lean in the direction of Shennong.

"Even this thing has a flaw." Ganch is not a good person.

"Huh? And flaws? Alas...... What flaws? Bao Zheng's face was disappointed, disappointed, things in the world are always difficult to perfect.

The old emperor also looked at Gan Qi with some disappointed expression.

"Defects are ......"

"You hapless boy, you say." Bao Zheng directly raised his hand to push Gan Qi.

"Uh...... It's just that the texture and taste are a little worse. ”

"You, you...... What kind of flaw is this? Bao Zheng almost pumped out in anger.

The old emperor was also relieved, he thought that the defect that Gan Qi was going to say was a big problem, but he didn't expect it to be such a simple thing, what is the taste? As long as you can eat enough, do you care about this?

The old emperor immediately asked: "This thing is in the Great Song Dynasty, where is it suitable for farming?" ”

"To the south of Lianghuai, not in the shade, can be planted."

"How many rice seeds did you bring back?" The old emperor asked questions again and again.

"This thing is from Champong, it is relatively close, and it is easy to buy. The rice seeds brought by the minister this time, more than 10,000 acres of paddy fields, are not a problem. ”

"Come on, send it to Jiangnan for trial planting, and send a minister to plough on behalf ......of me," the old emperor looked at Gan Qi, who personally ploughed the field on behalf of the emperor, it was a beautiful difference, this time Gan Qi made such a meritorious service, and there were many rewards. Cultivating on behalf of the emperor is fully responsible for this matter.

The old emperor obviously wanted Gan Qi to do this.

Unexpectedly, Gan Qi immediately lowered his head, probably saying in his heart: I won't go, I won't go, don't call me, don't call me.
