In the past two days, I have been unable to calm down and write due to some personal reasons.,I'm sorry to everyone here.,It's a normal update in the future.。

Thank you here for the book fans who have been following me for the past two days.

"I heard that there is a crop called sweet potato in Fujian that has been introduced from overseas, and the yield is very large. If you can, try to plant the land before October."

"As for the silver taels of seeds, I'll have them delivered."

Zhu Youxiao looked at thousands of acres of abandoned land and said softly to Li Fumin.

Sweet potatoes were first planted in Mexico and Colombia in the middle of the Americas, brought to the Philippines and other countries by the Spaniards to be planted, and the sweet potatoes were first introduced to China in the Wanli period in the late Ming Dynasty, and entered China by three routes - Yunnan, Guangdong and Fujian.

Later scholars generally believe that the introduction of sweet potatoes into China originated in the 21st year of Wanli, by Chen Zhenlong, a native of Changle in Fujian Province who had been doing business in Luzon for many years, and his son Chen Jinglun, who saw that a kind of root crop called "sweet potato" was planted locally, and the roots were "as big as a fist, the skin color was vermilion, the heart was crisp and juicy, both raw and cooked were edible, the yield was high, and the wide variety was barren". Thinking of his hometown of Fujian, where there are many mountains and few fields, the land is barren, and the food is insufficient, Chen Zhenlong is determined to introduce sweet potatoes to China. In 1593, the Philippines was under Spanish colonial rule, and sweet potatoes were regarded as a strange commodity and "forbidden to leave the country". After careful planning, Chen Zhenlong "took potato vines and twisted them into a rope to draw water", and smeared sludge on the surface of the rope, and in the early summer of 1593, he cleverly escaped the inspection of the colonizers' checkpoints and "had to cross the sea". After seven days of sailing, he returned to Xiamen, Fujian Province in the second half of the fifth lunar month. Because the sweet potato comes from outside the territory, the Fujian people call it "sweet potato".

Chen's introduction of sweet potatoes was discussed in the Ming dynasty Xu Guangqi's "Complete Book of Agricultural Administration" and Tan Qian's "Jujube Forest Miscellaneous".

"Your Majesty also knows a little about the sweet potato, but now that the sweet potato has passed the sowing season, even if it is forcibly sown, it will not be able to grow .........."

Li Fumin looked at Zhu Youxiao cautiously, for fear that what he said would be taboo.

After all, the emperor said that he wanted to plant sweet potatoes, and according to the practice of ordinary servants, he naturally obeyed the emperor's wishes and planted sweet potatoes directly, regardless of whether it grew or not.

It's just that Li Fuming is a person who has read books in the end, and he has the stubbornness of a literati, and he doesn't want to go with the flow. This is also why Li Fumin has been a small chamberlain since he entered the palace.

As for why the emperor didn't know the growth time of crops, it was naturally because the emperor needed to deal with national affairs, not these small crops, Li Fumin thought to himself.

Zhu Youxiao also looked annoyed after listening to Li Fumin's words, of course, this was just in his heart. After all, it is a shame to show your ignorance in front of others, especially when you are still an emperor and in front of one of your subordinates.

However, if Zhu Youxiao knew what Li Fuming was thinking, he would definitely be eager to hug him and kiss them.

Instead of criticizing the common-sense mistakes made by leaders, we should find ways to explain them.

"Your Majesty, now is the season for wheat sowing, why don't we plant wheat here."

As the saying goes, if you point out a mistake, you must find a way to come out and let the leader step down.

Although Li Fumin does not slip around and tends to be inflammatory, he still understands some people's sophistication. When things happen, you can be strong, and if you can be weak, you can be weak, didn't the sage say it? The eldest husband can bend and stretch in the world. Although the sages also said that wealth cannot be adulterous, and mighty cannot be bent.

Of course, saints are also human beings, and they always say that a thing is in two opposite directions, leaving steps for future generations, and this must be respected to the saints.

After Zhu Youxiao heard Li Fuming's suggestion, he couldn't help frowning, thought about it for a long time, and nodded in agreement with Li Fumin's proposal.

Of course, Zhu Youxiao's approach was just to cover up his weakness, but in fact, he had already agreed with the method Li Fumin said.

When a subordinate makes a suggestion, it is natural to let his subordinates see that they are actually thinking about the feasibility of this problem, although they have already agreed in their hearts, but this is what a leader should perform in the face of his subordinates.

After Zhu Youxiao took a few turns in Huangzhuang, he left Li Fuming behind and hurriedly returned to the palace with Wei Zhongxian and the rest of the Jinyi Guard.

It's not because Zhu Youxiao is afraid of anything, but Zhu Youxiao really doesn't have the face to stay there.

If the people of later generations traveled to ancient times, he could not talk about anything with the ordinary people of ancient times, it can be clearly said that it is farming, especially for young people in their 20s.

For a person of this age, you take him to a rice field, point to the rice in front of him and tell him that it is rice, and he nods his head to indicate that he knows. But when you take him around somewhere else, and you go back to the same place, and you ask him again what it is, he probably doesn't know what it is.

Zhu Youxiao, who returned to the palace, went straight to the residence of Empress Zhang Yan, wanting to find Zhang Ye to appease and appease his wounded heart, Zhang Yan hurriedly got up to greet Zhu Youxiao after seeing his arrival.

There are two sides to the emperor's life, for Ming Jun, the daily thing is to deal with official business until late at night, physically and mentally exhausted, but he does not dare to relax in the slightest.

For the faint king, his daily work is to eat, drink and have fun, and when he has nothing to do, he goes to the harem to find his concubines to play some small games that are beneficial to his physical and mental health.

Zhu Youxiao is actually very envious of the life of the faint king, and he also wants to be a faint gentleman, but Zhu Youxiao, who knows history, does not dare to be careless, because he knows that once he relaxes, then his head will fall to the ground, which is also a sad place for people who know history.

People always say that if I knew what the future would look like, then I would naturally live well, but if this kind of thing really happened, then he would only be cautious, not daring to be careless, for fear that some small actions of his own would change the future, and the body and mind would not be as free as before.

Zhu Youxiao randomly picked up some pastries on the table and stuffed them into his mouth, Zhang Yan originally planned to let the imperial dining room make some food, but Zhu Youxiao stopped it, for this Zhu Youxiao, who crossed over from the lowest level of society, as long as the things can go down to his mouth, he naturally doesn't care about what is good or bad.

Zhang Yan had no choice but to listen to Zhu Youxiao's words, and quietly looked at Zhu Youxiao, who was eating a lot, with full love in her eyes. and filled the air-conditioned cup in front of Zhu Youxiao with water from time to time.

"Zitong, this is osmanthus cake, it tastes very good, you can send some to me another day."

Zhu Youxiao, who had seven or eight osmanthus cakes and a pot of tea, patted his stomach, and smiled at Zhang Yan, who was sitting on the side, with a smile.
