Chapter 409 Emperor
Li Yuan is back.
Li Shimin called the eldest grandson Wuji and others, and rode away from the city.
Loose and loose, loose and loose.
Soon came to Zhuangzi.
The guards of the Wei Wangfu on the fence saw that it was Li Shimin, and hurriedly came over to salute.
However, Li Shimin didn't have time to return the salute to these people one by one, and strode inside.
"Where is the cornfield? Where are the sweet potato fields? Li Shimin asked loudly: "What about the legendary potatoes?" ”
He knew about these three high-yield crops from Li Tai's mouth.
So, I can't wait.
"Exactly, O green sparrow, where are those three things? Why do I see all the big patches of rape flowers? Li Yuan was also a little impatient.
"I said, Grandpa, Dad, why are you so anxious? It is said that he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, not to mention this old man, he can't be in a hurry, he can't be in a hurry. Li Tai said with a smile.
Walk forward with the crowd.
"I'm young now, who's old, who's old, you little bastard, why don't we fight and see who can win!" Li Yuan said angrily.
"Yes, yes, yes, you're so young." Li Tai rolled his eyes, if you are not ruthless, there will be nothing to do with our old Li family.
"But, grandfather Huang, I'm a little bastard, then isn't my father a bastard, aren't you an old bastard?" Li Tai laughed.
"Boy, look for a fight!"
Li Shimin and Li Yuan's eyes suddenly widened.
The eldest grandson Wuji, Cheng Yanjin and others who followed behind wanted to laugh, but they couldn't.
"Dad, grandpa, this is a sweet potato field." Li Tai led everyone to the edge of the sweet potato field and said, "At this time, you can still plant a crop." ”
"Quick, quick, dig it up, don't hurt those vines, this vine is a treasure." Li Shimin said with concern.
Sweet potato vines are in later generations, and that is what is fed to pigs.
However, in this era, it is indeed a treasure.
The chubby figure of the eldest grandson Wuji quickly jumped into the sweet potato field, and Cheng Yanjin was not far behind.
Looking at the cautious appearance of the two, Li Tai couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Just pull it off, plant it back tomorrow, don't you have it, can you use it like this?" ”
"Hmph, you know what? Whether Datang can usher in a prosperous era depends on these things. Li Yuan began to blow his beard and stare at his eyes again.
At this time, Cheng Yanjin had already dug out a sweet potato and said loudly: "Your Majesty, here, here!" ”
"Really? Bring it to me! Li Shimin said, looking nervous.
Cheng Yanjin hurriedly handed the sweet potato covered with soil to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin took it carefully, as if he was afraid of bumping into it.
"Your Majesty, there are also here!"
"Your Majesty, a lot, a lot!"
"Your Majesty, it's really a lot, this yield is really high!"
“……”
Dozens of catties were dug out of a one-meter-wide place.
Several other generals couldn't help but sigh.
At this moment, I saw Cheng Yanjin pick up a sweet potato and nibble on it.
The sound of "crunching" is not washed.
Then, he said happily: "Your Majesty, this thing is sweet and delicious!" ”
"Old father-in-law, why don't you even pay attention to hygiene?" Li Tai couldn't help but say, this old thing is really terrifying.
Eat all the dirt!
"Hmph, I think I had a mouthful of steamed buns and a mouthful of blood, and from time to time I gnawed on a mouthful of dead human flesh, and I didn't come back to life in the same way." Cheng Biting Jin looked like he didn't care.
Li Tai felt that his stomach was about to turn over.
Li Tai really wants to tell everyone that these crops grow well because they often use human manure to fertilize.
"Then let's go see the corn." Li Tai said, and then led the group forward.
Finally, we came to the cornfield.
Looking at the cobs, Li Shimin couldn't help but walk forward, broke off a corn cob, removed the leaf skin three times and twice, and then gnawed it.
The rest of the people did the same.
"This thing is really a heavenly thing!" Li Yuan couldn't help but sigh and said.
"God bless my Datang, God bless my Datang, as long as this thing can spread, Datang will no longer have the worry of famine!" Li Shimin sighed.
As the saying goes, hearing is false and seeing is believing, when I just heard what Li Tai said, I actually had some doubts in my heart, but when I saw it with my own eyes, I immediately believed it.
It's a high-yielding crop.
"It only takes three years, only three years, and the people of Datang will have no worries about famine." The eldest grandson Wuji sighed and said: "Your Majesty, there are still tens of thousands of acres of fields in the minister's house that have not been planted with sweet potatoes, and the minister begs Your Majesty to allow me to take some sweet potato vines from here and plant that land." ”
"The old minister's family also has several acres of land, and I hope to be able to plant it."
"The land in the old minister's house is also deserted, it's a pity."
“……”
The group of ministers said one after another.
"All planted, all planted." Li Shimin is very happy.
What is the most important thing in this era?
Grain!
With food, Datang can have long-term stability and prosperity, and the population can prosper.
"Where is another thing, called potatoes?" Li Shimin asked.
"Everyone, please come with me." Li Tai said.
He walked forward with the crowd for a while, and finally came to the edge of a large potato field.
"Potatoes, like sweet potatoes, are high-yielding crops that grow in the soil, and they can be used not only for cooking but also for cooking, which is very good." Li Tai said, and couldn't help but miss the potato stew vermicelli.
"Father, the child thinks that the names of corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes are not auspicious, so why don't you change the name?" Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Well, that's how my father feels." Li Yuan nodded and said, "In the future, this corn will be called Tang rice, and the sweet potato will be called Tang Potato, and this potato may not be called Tang Dou, how about it?" ”
"Good!" Li Shimin said with a smile.
"Grandpa, Dad, shall we have a face? Shall we have a face? Li Tai couldn't help but say secretly.
I've seen shameless, but I've never seen you so shameless.
It's a father and son.
It's a family.
"It's delicious, it's delicious, the taste of this tang bean is still quite good." At this time, I saw Cheng Yanjin dig out a potato and gnaw it.
"Damn, aren't you afraid of poisoning?" Li Tai was taken aback.
This old thing, why do you gnaw on it when you see college.
Aren't you afraid of being poisoned and dying?
"Heh, Qingque, don't lie to me, this Tang bean is clearly food, what can be poisonous?" Cheng Yanjin said with a look of nonchalance.
"This potato is really poisonous!" Li Tai said: "When potatoes sprout, a toxin is produced, so potatoes can only be eaten without sprouting, and they can only be eaten when they are cooked. ”
"No...... Not good. As soon as Li Tai's words fell, Cheng Biting Jin covered his stomach and said, "I seem to be poisoned, no, no." ”
He hurriedly ran not far away.
However, after only a few steps, I heard a loud "bang", and then a strong stench began to fill the air.
Diarrhea!
