Chapter 103: True Auspiciousness!

"Uncle! Got it! Found ......" Yin Weijie's expression was excited, and his words were more like shouting excitedly, waving the golden orange thing with his right hand.

Yin Weijie, as Zhao Zongwu's cheap father-in-law, if he wants to enter Dingliaobo Mansion, he actually doesn't have that much trouble at all.

But Zhao Zongwu's identity is respected after all, and the etiquette rules need to be followed, you must know that Yin Weijie came to Liaobo Mansion before, and he is extremely strict with the etiquette rules every time.

However, this time he was so excited that he forgot the etiquette rules he usually observed!

His uncle's cheap father-in-law, Yin Weijie was so out of shape, the servants in the house didn't dare to say anything else, so that Zhao Zongwu, who was engrossed in probing the situation in the whole territory of Liaodong, couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard the high-pitched shout of his father-in-law, and his heart was even more suspicious.

"If you want to say that your father-in-law usually abides by the rules of etiquette, why is he so out of shape today, what happened to make him so ......?"

Holding a magnifying glass in his hand, he looked out with a slight frown, when Zhao Zongwu saw Yin Weijie running wildly in the courtyard, especially the golden orange thing waving in his hand, he was not calm!

"Holy! I'm not mistaken! That's corn?!!! ”

Zhao Zongwu couldn't help but exclaim, casually discarded the magnifying glass on the table, and ran out of the house in two quick steps, no matter what Yin Weijie did, he snatched the golden orange in his hand.

Look at the familiar appearance, full of grains......

"It's corn !!!"

Zhao Zongwu's mood was even more excited than Yin Weijie's, his eyes were wide open, he looked at Yin Weijie and said hurriedly: "Where did you get this corn!! ”

No one knows better than Zhao Zongwu in his heart what kind of changes the appearance of this corn will bring to Donghai Town!

What he didn't dare to do before, because of the appearance of corn, Zhao Zongwu could deploy in advance!

Yin Weijie tried to breathe, so that the boiling lungs became soothed, and then said intermittently: "Go back...... Uncle Hui...... Father......; This is a caravan sent by Li Shuo, and it is specially ...... Specially collected from the southeast! Uncle is right, not only corn was found in the southeast, but also potatoes! Sweet potato! Chili pepper! ”

After listening to Yin Weijie's words, Zhao Zongwu's face was more surprised than everything, and he secretly said in his heart: "You can eat potato beef stew here?" Hot pot can also be realized? ……”

After Zhao Zongwu came to Daming, in addition to maximizing his ideals, many of the delicacies that appeared in later generations could not be realized at all, because many raw materials did not exist in Daming at the moment......

But now it's different!

Corn! Potato! Sweet potato! Chili pepper! These four things alone are enough to completely change the development model of Donghai Town!

"It's just that Li Shuo said in the letter that in addition to corn, sweet potatoes, and peppers, you can try to plant them in Donghai Town, but it is not recommended that the uncle try them in Donghai Town, and don't even touch the potatoes too much......" After talking about the exciting things, Yin Weijie did not forget to remind Zhao Zongwu.

"Why? Potatoes are so delicious......" Almost without thinking, Zhao Zongwu asked rhetorically.

After hearing this, Yin Weijie hurriedly said: "According to what Li Shuo wrote in his letter, he said that in some places in the south of the Yangtze River, it is rumored that potatoes are poisonous.

Legend has it that a common man ate a sprouted potato, but in just a few hours, he lost his life......"

After listening to Yin Weijie's story, the corners of Zhao Zongwu's mouth raised a little sneer, and he secretly said in his heart: "This is really terrible without culture, sprouted potatoes must not be eaten, it is a poisonous existence in itself." ”

"Don't talk about these things yet." Zhao Zongwu waved his hand casually, and then asked, "How much corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other things did Li Shuo transport this time?" ”

Since they are all high-yield crops, what Zhao Zongwu cares about in his heart is how many of these high-yield crops that can be planted as seeds at this moment.

If there are only a few of them, it is not a fun thing, after all, it takes a long time to cultivate these high-yielding crops.

"If you go back to your uncle, the fleet sent back by Li Shuo this time will transport a total of 20 stones of potatoes, 30 stones of sweet potatoes, 10 stones of corn, and 10 catties of chili peppers."

One stone in the Ming Dynasty was converted into two catties in later generations, which was about 153.5 catties.

After Zhao Zongwu listened to Yin Weijie's description, the whole person was shocked, how could this be possible! This is not the same understanding as he remembers!

When did the Ming Dynasty have such a huge number?

Zhao Zongwu's words were inquiring: "Lord Yue, are you sure it's the number you just talked about?" And not that you read the wrong letter? ”

"Uncle! How could I be wrong! That's exactly how many they are! Yin Weijie's expression was firm, and his words were even more affirmative.

Earned!

md!

This time it's definitely blood-earned!

With these high-yield crops, Donghai Town has millions of immigrants, even if it is tens of millions of subsequent immigrants, it can be fed!

When Zhao Zongwu was excited in his heart, Yin Weijie continued: "In order to complete the burden of the uncle's explanation, this time Li Shuo has spent a lot of money to sweep away the corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. in the Jiangnan area......

"Master Yue, you don't need to say it! This time, he Li Shuo has made a great achievement, and Ben Bo wants to make a great contribution for Li Shuo! Unintentionally listening to Yin Weijie say this, Zhao Zongwu said with excitement in his expression: "Lord Yue, don't waste time here, take Ben Bo to see the corn, potatoes and other things transported in the fleet!" ”

Excited, there's no way not to be excited!

The food problem that worries him the most has been solved in this way, and the amount is still unimaginably huge, this is simply a huge treasure from heaven!

Zhao Zongwu's heart was full of excitement, but what came to mind was a bold plan, the current land of Jinzhou has been planted with grain, and the corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and other things transported back this time will not be popularized on a large scale except for planting in some not very good land!

In that case, then Lao Tzu will plant them all in Fuzhou!

Originally, the fields were not cultivated in Fuzhou, on the one hand, because the outer defense line had not been completed, and on the other hand, because there was not much water conservancy construction at all, and even if the grain was planted, it was not guaranteed.

But this corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes are different, what a harsh environment can take root and sprout, except for the cold climate in Fuzhou, as for the rest of the fundamentals.

In addition, the outer defense line of Donghai Town is currently in full swing of preparation, and the progress is already fast enough, and after having these high-yield crops, this also forces a series of problems such as the outer defense line and the garrison army must be solved as quickly as possible.

As long as you survive this most difficult year, what awaits Donghai Town will be Nirvana rebirth!

True Nirvana Rebirth!

Under the leadership of Yin Weijie, Zhao Zongwu soon saw this hill of corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes...... The excitement in my heart was once again aroused!

What good food!

This can be said to be the foundation of Donghai Town's prosperity!

The Penglai Chamber of Commerce has made a great contribution this time, and Li Shuo has made a great contribution this time.

Having this weapon made Zhao Zongwu's deployment more and more confident!
