Chapter 268: Stiff sycophants
Li Shimin has personally gone to work in the field, Lin Sen and they must not be watching from the side, that is, the two brothers are still pestle beside Li Shimin like two pillars, but fortunately, it did not affect his work, so he didn't say anything at all, and he couldn't get angry with such two guys who were so angry that they didn't have a heart.
When Li Shimin made one, he couldn't help but weigh it carefully, and when he picked up some missing little guys from the soil, he would shout happily, as if he had won some great treasure.
Fortunately, there were many farmers who came to work, and there were so many guards to help, so this acre of land was completed without much delay.
Despite getting dirt, Li Shimin still smiled very happily, because when he saw the many new crops in front of him, he seemed to see hope.
They didn't have to wait too long, and the farmers over there had already cleaned up the two new crops, all of which had been weighed and summed up.
"It's fifteen hundred pounds! The other one is pretty much the same! ”
Li Shimin watched them overweigh with his own eyes, but he had no doubts about the accuracy of this number, and there were so many of them there, others couldn't believe it if they said it was less, so the rest was only amazement and excitement.
"Good! That's nice! It's just great! Probably thinking of the bright prospects for the future again, Li Shimin was a little excited and couldn't help himself.
"Can the others also reach this yield?" Li Shimin stared at Lin Sen with bright eyes and asked.
Although he already had the answer in his heart, he still wanted to get a definite answer from Lin Sen, because this result was too surprising, and it made him a little unbelievable, and there was always a feeling of doubt in a dream, and happiness came too suddenly.
"On average, it should be about the same." Lin Sen hurriedly replied with an affirmative nod.
He was embarrassed to say that this was the first year to plant these two new crops, and everyone still couldn't figure out the rules, and the management of watering and fertilization was not in place, and the yield was afraid that it would be a significant reduction in yield.
After all, in later generations, their output was calculated by tons, and at this value, it must be particularly barren land, or a place with a relatively harsh environment.
If you put such a good land, you will be laughed at if you produce such a small output, and this kind of land is not a fool, or a lazy and hopeless. Of course, Datang has no pesticides and fertilizers at this time, which is also a big problem.
But this is obviously not suitable to say to Li Shimin now, this is a bit too excited, if he says this, I am really afraid that he will faint.
There is a high probability that this family will have three highs, who knows if he will collapse as soon as he is excited, or he will be terried.
Yes, the happy event turned into a funeral, and Lin Sen's few more heads were not enough to cut off.
"Doesn't that mean that there will be no more hunger in the world?" When Li Shimin talked about this, his mouth trembled a little with excitement.
The royal guards around them, who were always with a straight face and looked like ice cubes, couldn't help but show excited expressions, and there was more reverence in their eyes when they looked at Lin Sen.
The group of farmers in the Lin family's village are even more mentions, and the eyes that look at Lin Sen are already full of worship, and they are no different from looking at the true gods.
In this state, I am afraid that if Lin Sen tells them that the old sow can go up the tree, they will not hesitate to choose to believe that as for why the old sow at home can't do it, it must be because they are fake pigs!
"This is the real auspiciousness! Well, even better than super wheat.
I want to thank you on behalf of the people of the world! After Li Shimin finished speaking excitedly, he bowed deeply to Lin Sen.
Lin Sen, who had long heard that Li Shimin's words were wrong, quickly jumped to the side, and waved his hand again and again to show that he did not dare to accept this salute.
"You definitely deserve this gift!" After Li Shimin straightened his waist, he said solemnly and sincerely to Lin Sen.
That being said, Lin Sen definitely can't really accept it.
Li Shimin's excitement is understandable, and he probably does have some sincerity.
But if Lin Sen accepted this gift in a big way, when Li Shimin's mood calmed down, who knows if he would make a hard note in his heart.
When an emperor, especially an emperor like him, he must attach great importance to his own face.
And even if he is magnanimous and doesn't care about it now, when his prestige grows in the future, he can't help but feel a little inflated, and it is difficult to guarantee that he will not settle accounts after the autumn. Therefore, it is better for Lin Sen to honestly correct his position.
"Do you have names for these two new crops?" Probably calming down a little, Li Shimin began to ask about the specific situation again.
"Well, the kid doesn't know how to come up with a name, and he hasn't thought of a suitable name yet."
Obviously, Li Shimin has the idea of giving a name, even if he knows the name, he has to pretend not to know.
Lin Sen still has this awareness, although he lacks a heart, but he has also been mixed up in the unit, and some basic common sense is still understood.
"Then this kind of horse bell is better called a potato, since this kind of skin is red, it is better to call it a sweet potato." Li Shimin said with a reserved smile.
These two new crops are destined to go down in history, and this name is given by him, and there will definitely be more recorded in history, and it will naturally be closer to Liufang Baishi.
Of course, he was also very satisfied with Lin Sen's rare knowledge and knowledge, and his eyes when he looked at Lin Sen became a lot kinder.
"This ...... Potatoes and sweet potatoes, are they demanding a lot of land? Have you ever tried to do it in other places? Li Shimin has obviously begun to think about promotion.
"I also planted some in the surrounding mountains and forests, and I also tried them in sandy soil, and it was because I determined that they were very adaptable and had high yields, so I dared to let the farmers plant them on a large scale."
In order to get the sprouts for the farmers, Lin Sen did give birth to these potatoes and sweet potatoes in different fields, and he was full of confidence when he told this lie.
"Good! Good! Good!" Li Shimin nodded happily and said yes, so that it can be really promoted on a large scale.
And with such high-yield food, there will not be so many hungry people in the world of Datang, as long as they are not too lazy and plant some of these two new crops, this output can be enough to get the family's rations.
"When this potato and sweet potato are promoted, you kid will be the Buddha of my Tang Dynasty!" Li Shimin patted Lin Sen's shoulder and said earnestly.
"Don't, the kid doesn't want to do anything to make a Buddha, and he doesn't deal with them very well." Lin Sen wanted to make a joke, but obviously Li Shimin was serious.
"What's that...... Your Majesty, I think it's better to deal with it like that super microphone, the kid is really not interested in fame. Lin Sen hurriedly expressed his attitude.
He also said this sincerely, it is indeed not a fraud, and in front of Li Shimin, he can't be a fake with his Taoism.
"And the reason why I was able to discover these two new crops is also thanks to His Majesty's blessing, is the kid just lucky to see them?" Lin Sen slapped a stiff sycophant again.
"Of course, that seed money can't be saved." Lin Sen said with a smile.
