Chapter 0195: I Want to Sell Potatoes

After two days of symbolic house arrest, Zhao Ruyu finally took Li Boyan out of the city. Twenty miles west of Qiantang Gate, we arrived at this place where the official family had verbally agreed to build the academy.

Li Boyan chose here, one came to the beautiful mountains and rivers, close to the West Lake, and came here to see the land, when he first came, he found someone to see it, it was really cheap......

Zhao Ruyu was helped out of the car by Li Boyan and said: "In the official will, the mountains and fields of this gem mountain are all owned by the academy, but if Boyan wants to set up the academy in this ridge under the mountain, he will have some blood." ”

Li Boyan smiled and said: "It is naturally feasible on the mountain, but if you want to build a academy on the mountain, the cost will have to triple. ”

Zhao Ruyu said: "It's just that the cost of disposing of the land property is very large, and the official family does not subsidize it, so it is difficult to continue." How long will it take to build the 500 restaurants as a teacher? ”

"Do you remember the potato?"

Zhao Ruyu was taken aback and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I decided to sell it to the official family."

"Ahem, Bo Yan, why don't you present such a divine object directly to the official family?"

Li Boyan said slowly: "This kind of crop, in today's Great Song Dynasty, there are only a few places that can be planted, and Yongzhou is not suitable for promotion. ”

"Why?"

Li Boyan coughed lightly twice and said: "This thing is just the opposite of the rice preference, drought tolerance is not waterlogging, prefers sandy land rather than fertile soil, and in the sunshine greenhouse in Yongzhou, after the harvest of this stubble in late autumn this year, there is no place to plant, and you have to find a place to plant." However, the teacher also understands that now Bo Yan can take care of Dongfeng Logistics, and the planting and promotion of this thing can only be handed over to the officials. ”

"According to your meaning, in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, where can this thing be planted?"

Li Boyan smiled and said, "I'm afraid that only Lizhou Road and Jingnan South Road can be cultivated in the northern area of Huainan West Road." ”

"Battlefield Frontier!" Zhao Ruyu was taken aback and jumped up in surprise.

Li Boyan nodded and said: "This is not right, it is difficult to cultivate rice in these places, and it is just right to plant this thing." ”

"How much are you going to sell it for?"

"One potato, one man."

"Alone! What kind of selling method is this? ”

Li Boyan said with a smile: "This land has long been the student's land, and it was originally intended to be used for other purposes, but now for the sake of our Yongjia new school, the student has no choice but to cut his love and move it to the academy, but this money is ...... You can't use Dongfeng's money anymore, and you have to come from the official family. ”

Zhao Ruyu's eyes darkened, yes, this calculation comes and goes, and he is really happy with his enemies. It's just that he doesn't know how to tell Zhao Kuo about this.

At present, as the land of Xinxue Academy, Baobao Mountain and the surrounding mountains are all given by the government, and the fields by the West Lake are bought by Li Boyan, which is not uncommon in the Southern Song Dynasty. For example, the rebuilding of Yuelu Academy and Bailudong Academy was more or less funded by the private sector and led by the government to repair or rebuild. What is the purpose of establishing a school, it is not to send talents for the imperial court, and the past Taixue and Fuxue have been unable to hide the demand for a place to study due to the southward migration of northerners.

Out of consideration for the huge output of this material, Zhao Ruyu finally entered the palace and asked for a summons.

"This summons is in the Funing Palace. It can also be regarded as Zhao Kuo's intention to meet privately. After all, Zhao Ruyu has already made a decision, but decided not to come back. Even so, the battle was still big enough, not only Zhao Kuo, but also Jing Bo and Xie Shenfu, the two old ministers, Han Yanxuan and Chen Ziqiang, all came, lined up on both sides, wanting to see what Zhao Ruyu had done when he entered the palace again. ”

In this regard, Zhao Kuo is also helpless. Since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty and the rule of the world with scholars, even if the emperor wants to go out to the palace to play, he has to be admonished by these ministers side by side, which also makes the inner garden extraordinarily large, and also saves the emperor from being restless and running out.

"Zi Zhigong, take a look, as soon as I heard that you were going to enter the palace, several members of the central government came over, I don't know what to report?"

These people had to come over, just the day before yesterday, there was a purge in the palace, a fire in Dali Temple, so far I can't find out who did it, Siqing, Sicheng were demoted and transferred, which made several ministers uneasy, afraid that Zhao Zizhi had something important to report.

"Holy Lord, the old minister came here today, and there is something presented."

"Oh? Zi Nao Gong has something to show me. ”

Zhao Ruyu said with some embarrassment: "This thing is not with the old minister. ”

Han Yanxuan frowned, not knowing what Zhao Ruyu was doing. Chen Ziqiang on the side, relying on his oldest, said: "Is Gong Xinguo teasing the official family?" They said they wanted to present something, but why didn't they bring it? ”

"This thing grows and land, and it is currently on the way to Lin'an, but this thing yields twenty stones per mu, and the old minister thinks ......"

"What?" Zhao Kuo thought that his ears were wrong, "Zi Zhigong said how much is the yield per mu?" ”

Zhao Ruyu said with a serious expression: "Twenty stones per mu." ”

Zhao Ruyu narrowed his eyes and said: "Zizhi is not Zhishi, people are old and confused, come to the official family to talk nonsense?" ”

"The official family heard it right, the yield per mu is twenty stones, but it is not rice, but a fresh crop, the old minister has seen it himself, if there is half a falsehood, please condemn the official."

Zhao Kuan's body sat up straight all of a sudden, Zhao Zizhi's mind was very sober, it didn't look like it was burned out, and he asked, "Is there really such a thing?" ”

"Yes, it's just that it was cultivated by Li Boyan, a student of the minister, and he wants to sell it to the official family......"

Several ministers in the hall stumbled.

Sell...... Sold to the official family?

Hey, what's new, this is the first time I've heard of doing business with officials.

None of them spoke, and turned their eyes to Zhao Kuo.

"How are you going to sell it to me? I'm very poor. When Zhao Kuo said this, he laughed. He really doesn't have money, but all the money in the world is his, but if Zhao Kuo wants to use money, he naturally has to go through the consent of the ministers of the center and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty.

Zhao Ruyu smiled, if he hadn't met Li Boyan before, Zhao Ruyu wouldn't have dared to talk to Zhao Kuo about the conditions like this, and now he is a madman as a master, he is a little bold and fat.

"This thing, it is true that it can produce 20 stones per mu, but it is not suitable to be planted in Jiangnan and other places, but can only be planted with Lizhou Road, Jingnan South Road and Huainan West Road and other places, as military food, one can avoid the heavy military expenses of the imperial court, and second, it can also reduce the taxes on the shoulders of the people.

Zhao Kuo smiled: "This is Li Boyan's idea again, right?" ”

Zhao Ruyu smiled awkwardly and did not speak, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence, in this world, Li Boyan is the only one who dares to do business with the official family.

Several ministers in the center chuckled and shook their heads. First, they don't believe that there are crops with a yield of 20 stones per mu, and second, they feel that it is too ridiculous to do business with officials.

"Well, I thought that Zizhigong's protΓ©gΓ© would have a meritorious contribution to disaster relief and give me some rewards, since he wants to do business with me, okay, Han Qing, this business, you will check it for me, see if you can do it, or you can't do it."

Several ministers, including Zhao Ruyu, were stunned.

This......

Did you really say yes?
