Chapter 452: Watermelon Mania
This day will be held.
Ma Riyan and Dong Cheng were die-hard loyalists, and they saw that Yuan Tan and his party simply walked in sideways.
It's very exciting.
It's even more nouveau riche than nouveau riche.
"Prime Minister ......." When everyone saw the salute, even Emperor Han Xian had to stand up to show respect.
Yuan Tan stood in the middle of Longtai, with his back to Emperor Han Xian, facing the hundred officials, "Ladies and gentlemen, the yield of watermelons per mu is here." ”
"How many pounds?" Ma Riyan was shocked and hurriedly asked.
"Ten thousand catties." Yuan Tan said lightly.
~! Baiguan immediately blew up the pot.
It's really 10,000 catties! It's as unacceptable as the sky is falling.
Pang Tong and the others saw everyone's expressions of disgust, and they had already forgotten that they had just heard about it.
"I don't believe it." After Ma Riyan was stunned, he didn't care anymore, and said: "Don't say 10,000 catties, it's 20,000 catties, which is the matter of your words." ”
Ma Riyan, Dong Cheng and other widows, the old and the young, loudly proclaimed that Yuan Tan was falsifying data and was exaggerated.
"In this case, you can go to the fields and have a look."
Ma Riyan and they looked at Yuan Tan's calm and calm expression, and they were shocked, is it true?
"It's not true!"
"How can there be a thing with a yield of 10,000 catties per mu."
"Let's not be deceived by him, just go and see!"
Ma Riyan and they encouraged each other, and there was no need to be afraid of him at all with false data like 10,000 catties.
So, in the excitement of the crowd, they walked out.
"Prime Minister, I ...... Can I go and see it too? Emperor Han Xian saw that no one cared about him, so he had to take the initiative to mention it.
Emperor Han Xian really wanted to go and see it, after all, Ma Riyan and Yuan Tan made a bet, and if they could see Yuan Tan deflated, they would definitely not let it go.
The next day.
At noon, Yuan Tan and the others finally came to Guangzong's field.
In the endless sandy land, there are round and huge watermelons, which makes the sandy land a sea of green.
"It's only a few hundred fruits, how can there be 10,000 catties?" Ma Riyan touched his beard, and at this moment he was completely calm.
You must know that it is corn, thousands of grains per acre, and more than 1,000 catties.
"In that case, Master Ma will go on the scales himself." Yuan Tan didn't care.
Soon.
Ma Riyan and they paid the price for their limitations, and they really didn't expect a watermelon to be so heavy, with more than 20 catties and less than 10 catties.
It's just that I can't really see it on the ground, and as soon as I get on the scale, it's all exposed.
With the continuous scales, as the yield per mu came out, the officials were both shocked and excited.
Especially Wang Lang, an official loyal to Yuan Tan, has a yield of 10,000 catties per mu under the rule of the lord, and a new dynasty will be born soon.
"Matthew, how's it going?" Yuan Tan asked.
Ma Riyan and Dong Cheng trembled.
Wang Lang immediately walked out, pointed to the biomanure in the ground that had not yet melted and said, "Master Ma, didn't you say that you will eat when you reach 10,000 catties?" Please keep your promise. ”
Yuan Tan summoned a farmer and said, "You tell Master Ma what kind of feces these are, so that Master Ma can eat according to his personal preferences." ”
The farmer nodded for a while, and said to Ma Riyan: "It is the honor of the villain to be able to serve Lord Ma, this is human dung, this is pig dung, this is cow dung...... please eat whatever you want." ”
Ma Riyan's face turned green, and Dong Cheng and the others retreated one after another, highlighting him even more.
Seeing that Ma Riyan had no plans to eat.
Wang Lang, Guo Tu and others ridiculed one after another.
"Shameless ......."
"Despicable ......."
"Shameless old ......."
Dong Cheng and the others didn't dare to say anything, for fear of getting into trouble, they looked at Ma Riyan, the old lady is sorry, I really can't help you this time.
Emperor Han Xian was also dumbfounded at this moment, he really had 10,000 catties, and suddenly felt that the future of the Han family was even darker.
Yuan Tan smiled and said: "Okay, don't embarrass the old lady, who is the old lady, how can she fulfill her promise?" ”
"Master Ma is a man who breaks his word."
"Master Ma's shamelessness, we are all very clear."
"That's what Lord Ma is." Wang Lang: They all sneered.
Ma Riyan was crazy, he rushed out, picked up a lump, and put it in his mouth, "Made, I'll eat!" Hahaha, delicious, so fragrant! ”
"How? How? Ma Riyan ate dung, his eyes were pale and his eyes were pale, and his whole body trembled.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and they really ate it.
Yuan Tan gave a thumbs up, "Master Ma just has a big heart, hero." ”
Everyone immediately looked at Ma Riyan in awe, and burst into thunderous applause.
"-eating heroes!"
Ma Riyan smoked.
Dong Cheng couldn't stand it anymore, this was not Ma Riyan's face, it was simply the face of the Han family, the face of the old and the young.
He had to stand up and question, "Does anyone buy this?" If it doesn't work, it's also Caucasian. ”
Not to mention, Uncle Dong Cheng is to the point.
"Open a few for you to taste." In fact, Yuan Tan couldn't wait to eat watermelon, he hadn't eaten it for a long, long time, and it was strange, especially in this hot summer.
Less.
There was no sound in the field, just the sound of eating watermelon.
"It's delicious!" Lao Jia's eyes were shining, and he didn't care to wipe his white beard with red water.
The officials all tasted dead, and they didn't spit out seeds at all.
"Would you like to buy it?" Yuan Tan asked.
"I'm so willing to buy it!"
"It's cooler than eating ice cubes in the summer!"
"Wouldn't you be a fool if you didn't buy it?"
Hundreds of officials said one after another.
Dong Cheng looked at the watermelon in his hand, shaking, and finally couldn't help but eat it.
As a result, watermelons began to be fully listed to collect money.
A few days later.
The largest fruit market in Yecheng.
"Lao Zhao, what new goods are there this year?"
The merchant of the Western Regions, Xi, only came to Yecheng to do business in the summer, and he liked to purchase new goods and bring them back to the Western Regions to make a lot of money.
The Western Regions is the first stop of the Silk Road, and the merchants of the Western Regions are the second-tier dealers, who are sold to West Asia, and the West Asia is the third-tier dealers, who are sold to Europe.
This is the Silk Road.
After all, Europe is too far away, it will take several years to go back and forth, and there are many crises on the road.
"Today's main dish is watermelon."
"What is a watermelon?" Tin is not much and scratches his head.
Lao Zhao took a melon, and after cutting it, Hu Shangxi was not much shocked.
After taking a bite, I was even more shocked.
Xi's eyes lit up, and he obviously grasped the business opportunities here. This watermelon is so delicious, cool and thirst-quenching, sweet and delicious, in the hot Western Regions, it can definitely be hot.
Sure enough, under the rule of Prime Minister Yuan, the most extensive and profound business opportunities, there is not much tin and can't wait to bring it back and sell it.
"How much is this?" After making a decision, I began to care about the price.
"A hundred bucks." Lao Zhao said lightly.
"Huh?" Tin is not much more shocked. "A hundred dollars, are you robbing money?"
Lao Zhao began to give full play to his business literacy and put forward one, two, and three points.
First, watermelons are unique in the world, and there are no other places.
Second, are the nobles short of money? The nobles lack this peerless delicacy.
Third, this watermelon is different from other dishes and has a long shelf life.
Lao Zhao said again: "After you go back, sell two hundred and one catties, which is also in short supply." ”
Tin is also an old businessman, and nodded affirmatively. I thought to myself, if it's so expensive, I can't bring it back much at one time, so I have to hurry up, and then come to the second and third waves.
So, Tin didn't take out a big bag, smashed it with a million, and purchased 10,000 catties of watermelons, that is, watermelons on an acre of land.
This kind of thing is happening everywhere. With the watermelon on the market, it won the watermelon frenzy. People are proud of eating watermelon, and they use eating watermelon as a means of pretending to be forced. Whoever eats watermelon in his hand and goes to the street, the success rate of pretending to be forced is 100%.
And Yuan Tan is also very concerned about the sales of watermelons.
On this day, in the study, Yuan Tan asked, "How is the sales of watermelons?" ”
Speaking of this sale, the military advisors trembled. Is this still a sale, this is simply a money grab.
Xun You immediately rushed out, "Lord, the sales situation is too good." ”
"How much is a pound." Yuan Tan hurriedly asked.
"It's already up to a hundred!" The strategists said in unison.
it, a hundred bucks!
Yuan Tan himself was shocked, you must know that in modern times, when he had a dollar and ten catties, that is, a dime and a catty, and now a pound and a hundred yuan, it is even more profitable than robbing a bank.
Bite! Congratulations to the host for leading the poor households to pretend to be successful, and the pretending value will be increased by 10
Bite! Congratulations to the host for leading the industrial and commercial business to successfully pretend, and the pretending value will be increased by 10
Bite! Congratulations to the host for letting the people eat watermelon, pretending to be successful, and pretending to be forced to add 10
Bite! Congratulations to the host for triggering the lotto draw, please ask if the draw will be drawn immediately.
Yuan Tan was happy in his heart, the people in the late Han Dynasty could eat big watermelons, and sure enough, he pretended to be successful, "Smoke it immediately!" ”
Bite! Congratulations to the host for getting a 'Baumkuchen bread', Baumkuchen bread, which can reach the desired age after eating, and the time lasts for 5 hours.
“……。” Yuan Tan.
This item is amazing enough, but I don't know how to use it.
