"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that if the news of Zhancheng rice is conclusive, then we should immediately get more rice seeds from the Huan Kingdom and widely implement them in my Datang, so that the pressure on my Datang grain can be greatly relieved." Wei Renshi, the person who bowed down to Li Shi's words, didn't know him, but he was very disdainful of his words.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it is impossible." Du You said to Li Shi: "Where you plant, you should not only look at its seeds, but also look at its land, its time, and its cultivation. Although the three-crop rice sounds quite tempting, what if you arrive in Datang and are not accustomed to the water and soil? Your Majesty, oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and oranges born in Huaibei are oranges. The three-crop rice can be harvested three times a year in the Huan Kingdom, but it is not necessarily in the Tang Dynasty. If His Majesty rashly implements it, the people will plant three crops of rice, but if this kind of rice cannot grow well in the Tang Dynasty, it will be a disaster! ”

After Du You finished speaking, he looked at Li Shi, for fear that Li Shi would immediately promote the planting of three crops of rice when he was happy.

"Your Majesty, that's what Weichen meant." Zheng Xunyu also saluted Li Shi and said: "Wang Xiang is anxious to make my Tang Dynasty not have to worry about food, and he is sincere. However, Weichen also thought that this matter should not be rushed. As Du Xiangfang said, oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and oranges born in Huaibei are oranges. Naturally, we hope that the three crops of rice can also be harvested in our Datang territory, but what if we are afraid? The people involved in this matter are all the people of the world, and if there is a case, the people's will will be gone. If the people of the whole world have a famine in the coming year because of this incident, then the people's resentment will boil, and the people will complain, fearing chaos. ”

"Yes, what Du Qing and Zheng Qing said is very true, the matter of rice planting is indeed sloppy, and it must be carefully considered and decided. If something goes wrong, it is a sin imposed by the imperial court. Li Shi nodded and said, "What good ideas do you have for rice planting?" ”

Then what other good ideas can be set up to set up a pilot and gradually promote it.

Wei Renshi pursed his lips and thought to himself.

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen seems to have something to say when he sees Wei Xianzi, so it's better to listen to Wei Xianzi's opinion." Gao Ying, who was standing opposite Wei Renshi, saw Wei Renshi's pouting, so he said with a smile: "Since this rice seed was first known by Wei Xianzi, then Wei Xianzi must know more about rice seeds than we do." ”

Li Shi immediately asked, "Does Wei Qing have any ideas?" ”

Wei Renshi walked out and bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, the implementation of rice seeds is related to whether Datang has enough grain and grass. But it is not possible to implement it rashly. Before the large-scale promotion of rice seeds, we must first verify whether the three-crop rice will change after transplanting to Datang, and whether it can still maintain the growth rate and yield per mu. Therefore, Weichen thought that the implementation of the three-crop rice would take at least three years. In the first year, we planned to screen out several different pilot counties from the coastal areas of Lingnan to the northern region across the country, open up some acres of land in these pilot counties, and plant three rice varieties as experimental fields, so as to summarize the number of seasons that can grow three seasons of rice in those places in Datang, and draw out the differences between these rice varieties in different places in Datang. If the experimental field fails, and the three-crop rice cannot be planted in Datang at all, it will only affect a few villages in these pilot projects, and it will not cost much for the imperial court to compensate these farmers, so there is no risk. If the experimental field is successful, then the planting can be expanded within the scope of the original pilot county in the second year, and other pilot counties can be added at the same time. If the feedback from these pilot counties is good in the second year, then it can be gradually promoted in our Datang for a long time. This kind of promotion can only be from point to surface, and then face to surface, and finally achieve large-scale planting, and not let the whole world plant this kind of rice seed with one order. ”

"Hehehe, what Wei Xianzi said coincides with the old man." Du You smiled and stroked his beard and said to Li Shi: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Wei Xianzi said is very true. Let's not rush to promote rice seeds on a large scale, we can only come little by little. In this way, even if there is any problem or discrepancy in the middle, it will only affect that point. In addition, in the process of trial planting, the people of the imperial court also knew the habits of this rice seed and summed up how to plant it correctly. In this way, when the imperial court determined that there was no problem with Champa rice and that it could be promoted on a large scale and on a large scale, it would be better to send people to various places to guide the planting of the people in various places to ensure that the people could have a bumper harvest. The people have a good harvest, and the court naturally has a good harvest. ”

Wei Renshi nodded, agreeing with Du You's words.

Although Wei Renshi knew that there was no problem with the cultivation of Champa rice in the territory of Datang, he still proposed that it would take at least three years before it could be promoted. It is because although Wei Renshi knows that there is no problem with Champa rice, but at the same time, Wei Renshi also knows that not only the officials of the imperial court have not heard of Champa rice, but also the people of the world have not heard of it.

Wei Renshi knows, but it doesn't mean that everyone else knows.

The imperial court must draw conclusions through itself, and the civil and military officials of the imperial court will be convinced, and Li Shi will be convinced.

Moreover, it is not possible to get people to plant a crop that they have never heard of before and to plant instead of cultivating the original crop that they are familiar with.

The common people were more worried about their own harvest than the imperial court, so they preferred not to believe in the miraculous yield, but insisted on cultivating the crops they were familiar with.

It will take time for the people of the world to take the initiative to plant Champa rice and change the crops they are used to planting.

Li Shi listened to what everyone said, pondered for a while, picked up the few pieces of paper and looked at them, and then lowered his head and thought for a while.

Li Yu looked at Li Shi's appearance, and then spoke: "Father, the more than ten people sent by the child are all extremely loyal people selected from the East Palace, and they will never deceive the imperial court." ”

Li Shi still didn't speak.

Gao Ying took a step, stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, it is better for Your Majesty to select reliable people, take Your Majesty's decree and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's decree, go to Guangzhou to connect with them, and purchase rice seeds from the Ring Kingdom together." In this way, it is not only possible to verify whether his words are true, but also to verify the matter of rice seeds with his own eyes - after all, this matter is very important, and there must be no room for sloppiness. If there is really such a rice seed, you can also receive them and protect the rice seed and transport it to my Datang. ”

After listening to Gao Ying's words, Li Shi nodded slowly and said, "Gao Qing has a comprehensive strategy, so I will do what Gao Qing said." If the rice seed is true, this is the work of the heavens, I should order him to hold my hand to see the governor of Annan and the history of the Guangzhou thorn, protect the rice seed thoroughly, and send the rice seed to the trial plant! ”
