Chapter 346: Letter from the capital
"Jiu'er, these two secret guards are for you." Gu Tianqing smiled and said, "Since you don't plan to go back with me, then they will protect you on my behalf first." ”
Gu Yao waved his hand, "Father, no need, besides, Xiao Xu is still here, I can have his protection." ”
Speaking of Xiao Xu, Gu Tianqing snorted coldly, "How can he protect you with his broken body." Because Xiao Xu didn't report it before, he was fined 30 lashes.
Gu Yao pleaded for mercy at first, but Gu Tianqing insisted on punishing Xiao Xu, but he also said that after the punishment, the dark one on Xiao Xu's body was gone.
In the future, Xiao Xu will be Xiao Xu.
Therefore, Xiao Xu received thirty lashes, so that he is now lying on the bed with that secret guard!
"But you don't need two!" Gu Yao said: "Also, the injury in Xiao Xu's room hasn't healed yet, do you want to take him back with you on the way?" ”
"That's it, it's for you, it's the dark five." Gu Tianqing then said to Dark Three and Dark Four: "In the future, the Ninth Princess will be your master, you must protect her well, you know?" ”
"Yes." Dark Three and Dark Four, "The subordinate Dark Three/Dark Four has seen the master." ”
Gu Tianqing was satisfied, but Gu Yao was not satisfied, and asked, "Then what about your own safety, father?" "It's far from here to the capital!
"It's okay, there's someone else with me!" Gu Tianqing smiled and said, "Besides, in fact, I also brought some people over, and they are in the county office." ”
When Gu Yao heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile: "Then I will be relieved." ”
Gu Tianqing looked at Gu Yao and said, "Jiu'er, I plan to leave tomorrow, do you have anything you want to say to your mother?" "After all, the other party misses her daughter too.
Speaking of Feng Yuehua, Gu Yao was silent, but in the end she wrote a letter to her, in addition to greetings, she also told the other party about the relationship between herself and Chen Yanni.
With her mother's presence here, Chen Yanni should be much better in the Prince's Mansion!
I don't know how the other party is now, they haven't communicated in a while.
Yi Jiang was stunned when he heard the news that Gu Tianqing was leaving, not reluctantly, but he felt a little sudden, "I didn't have a good time before, why do I have to go back?" ”
"It's good to be able to stay for so many days." What's more, he originally planned to go back in the next few days, but he was reluctant to give up his Jiu'er, so he never brought it up.
Yi Jiang sighed and said, "If you want to miss Yao'er in the future, you can write to Yao'er and ask Yao'er to come over to see you." ”
"Yes." Gu Tianqing looked at Gu Yao on the side, his eyes full of reluctance.
Gu Yao sniffed and asked, "When will my father leave?" ”
"I will live in the county office today, and I will leave early tomorrow morning, and strive to get to the capital as soon as possible." Gu Tianqing smiled and touched Gu Yao's head, "I'm really reluctant to you!" ”
"It's okay, I can go to the capital in the future." Gu Yao smiled, in fact, she had inquired when she first went to the capital, and she could take the waterway
That's enough time to cut in half.
However, the waterways are not safe, and there are pirates in some places.
So now, whether it is a caravan or an independent trip, it is by land.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come and see me in the capital." Gu Tianqing said to everyone with a smile.
Everyone smiled and said that they would definitely go back to the capital in the future, and let Gu Tianqing take everyone to have a good walk, Gu Tianqing should come down with a smile.
When they finished eating, everyone thought that Gu Tianqing would be in a hurry tomorrow, so they didn't eat very late, and it was over around midnight.
Gu Yao plans to live in the county seat today, so that he can send the other party tomorrow, otherwise, he really doesn't know when he will be able to meet again.
Gu Tianqing was reluctant to Gu Yao, but seeing Gu Yao follow him to the county seat, he couldn't mention how happy he was.
Sitting in the carriage, the two chatted all over the world, chatting and chatting about the problem of food, and then talked about the west.
"You can grow corn!" Gu Yao leaned against the wall of the car and said to Gu Tianqing: "However, there are many varieties of corn, according to the use, there are grain and feed varieties, vegetable varieties, processing varieties, bursting grain varieties, etc. ”
"Among them, the vegetable varieties include glutinous type, sweet type, and corn shoot type, and this processed variety includes sweet corn and corn shoots, and the popping variety is a special variety for popcorn."
Gu Tianqing was a little dizzy when he heard this, "Wait, Jiu'er, there are so many varieties of corn here?" ”
"That's right, just like paper, 'paper' is just a common name, after all, there are many kinds of paper."
Gu Tianqing nodded, and then motioned for Gu Yao to continue.
"It's still this corn, it's very drought tolerant, cold tolerant, barren tolerant and very well adapted to the environment, and I don't know exactly what the situation is in the west."
"But barrenness is a certainty, and there is a drought that is going on now, and it will take a long time to recover, unless there is a heavy rain right now, which moistens the parched land."
Gu Yao spread his hands and looked helpless, "No one can guarantee this, and the yield of corn is also very high, of course, its role is also very wide." ”
"It can be turned into corn starch, corn gluten/flour, corn germ to make oil, corn starch to sugar, corn starch to make wine, and it will definitely play a very important role in the development of the west."
Gu Tianqing nodded his head and looked contemplative, indeed, the redevelopment of the west cannot blindly rely on donations from other places, and more importantly, they still need to rely on themselves.
If what Jiu'er said is useful, then corn is indeed a very suitable crop for the west.
"Jiu'er, is there anything else?"
Gu Yao took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "There is also wheat, but in the current situation in the west, I recommend adopting semi-arid cultivation, and when planting, land preparation is very important." ”
"Semi-arid cultivation fertilizer supply capacity is strong, nitrogen should be properly controlled in the early stage, so as not to increase ineffective tillering, but it is easy to defertilize in the later stage, so it should be on the basis of increasing organic fertilizer
, nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers. ”
Gu Tianqing looked at Gu Yao with a confused face, covered his head, and then said: "Fertilization is very important, and after grinding into flour, you can make bread, steamed buns, biscuits, noodles and other foods." ”
"After fermentation, it can also be made into beer, alcohol, liquor, etc., or that sentence, it should be able to play a certain role in the development of the western side."
"Besides, these two things are still delicious as long as the craftsmanship is good, and of course, they are also good for people."
Gu Tianqing took a deep breath, and then asked, "Jiu'er, where did you know all this!" ”
Gu Yao smiled and said: I saw it from the book at that time! Then he grabbed one of Gu Tianqing's arms, "Father, you should have listened to what my father said." ”
"I met him when I was 8 years old, and before that, I had been living in the mountains with my master, who was very strict with me, but also very good to me."
"Teach reading and literacy, but unfortunately, the day before I met my father, the master said goodbye without saying goodbye, and said a lot of inexplicable strange things."
Gu Yao lowered his head slightly, and said softly: "I only understood it during this time, and I think about it, the master knew my background from the beginning." ”
Gu Tianqing looked at Gu Yao with some distress, but still asked, "Then do you remember what your master looks like?" Father will help you find a master, okay? ”
"No need." Gu Yao shook his head, "The master said that if he leaves in the future, don't go to him, I think about it now, the master is really mysterious!" ”
"It seems that he is a master of the world." Gu Tianqing sighed, "Fortunately, you met your master at the beginning, otherwise, we wouldn't have had the chance to meet." ”
Gu Yao raised her head and said with a smile, "Father, everything will be fine." ”
"Eun." Gu Tianqing nodded, and when he went back, he asked people to secretly prepare the princess's mansion, so that Jiu'er would have his own mansion when he returned to the capital.
Of course, it would be nice if I could live in the palace.
"Yes, father, have you ever heard of potatoes?" Suddenly, Gu Yao asked again.
"Potatoes?" Gu Tianqing frowned, thought about it, and asked, "What does it look like!" "He'd seen a lot of things, but some of them he couldn't name.
"Well, it's oblate, or so tall, so wide." Gu Yao gestured, "Spherical, the colors of the potato skin are white, yellow, pink, red, purple and black. ”
"The potatoes are white, light yellow, yellow, black, cyan, purple and black purple, and if you eat them, they are glutinous if they are very cooked."
Gu Tianqing thought for a while, "No, Jiu'er should tell my father about this potato." ”
Gu Yao nodded, "Father, the yield of this potato is much more than corn and wheat, it grows in the soil, and it can be fried, boiled, and fried." ”
"You can also make some small snacks, which are very delicious." Are they the only ones who have this potato? "No, I have potatoes in my greenhouse."
Gu Tianqing smiled and said, "Maybe I have eaten it but I haven't remembered it!" ”
"Possibly." The name of the dish eaten by the emperor is very gorgeous, and some of the names are taken out and then look at the raw materials.
"I don't know if this potato is suitable in the west, but it must be suitable in the north, because this potato likes cold and does not tolerate high temperatures."
Gu Yao continued: "Potatoes have very strict soil requirements, and soil with deep topsoil, loose structure, good drainage and aeration and rich in organic matter is the most suitable. ”
"In particular, soils with large porosity and good aeration can better meet the oxygen needs of root development and tuber growth." After a pause, "It's just that there are certain requirements for soil." ”
"However, this potato is poisonous." As soon as Gu Yao finished speaking, Gu Tianqing was surprised.
"Is this food still poisonous?" It's really unheard of!
Gu Yao nodded, and said with a serious face: "Of course there is, but generally after high-temperature cooking, toxic substances will decompose, and there will be no problem." ”
"But if the potatoes sprout, they're also poisonous."
