Chapter 132: The Crown Prince Gaoliang Palace Banquet
Xu Jingzong owned only a few granges and properties, but he couldn't use the power of Ming, and he couldn't let anyone notice. Easier said than done.
You have to monitor slowly, maybe a month, maybe two months.
He Guangzhen took the book out of the city, another colleague accompanied him, and the other three took portraits and tried their luck in front of Xu Jingzong's other farms or industries. Shu'er disguised himself as a scholar, and He Guangzhen and the two disguised themselves as ordinary scholars, and Shu'er did not look as stunning as Yang Min or Xu Li, and did not attract attention.
Out of the city, the outside of the city was already green, and all kinds of crops were growing wildly. In fact, high temperature has the benefit of high temperature, as long as there is no shortage of water, it is still very beneficial to crops. But there is no shortage of water. So the crops by the ditch were growing well, and the crops that lacked water in the distance withered.
Shu'er suddenly pointed to the southwest direction and said, "Look, that's the sorghum that the crown prince tested. ”
Standing out from the crowd, you can see it from afar.
In fact, Li Wei didn't know well about sorghum, this kind of crop has always had a very low yield, and the average harvest per mu of land in the Tang Dynasty was only one stone, and some of them grew well, and if they were served properly, they could get two stones, and if they didn't grow well, they didn't have a stone. However, the harvest of other crops is also not good, otherwise the yield per mu in the country will be pulled up in two seasons, including the harvest of thousands of miles in the fertile fields in the south of the Yangtze River, only two stones. Subsequently, wheat and rice technology emerged, and as the mainstream of grain, the taste of sorghum and the difficulty of removing rice were neglected. So until the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the national sorghum harvest was only 150 catties. In many places, it is even used for brooms and green fodder. After decades of technological innovation, it has grown to more than 600 catties, which is the era when Li Wei grows.
Later, when I entered the city, I heard that there were 1,000 catties and 2,000 catties, one was the experimental field, and the other was the seed improvement. In most rural areas, the output is still 100 catties, and it has not reached more than 1,000 catties. Of course, if only one season of sorghum reaches **100 catties, what will it mean for the Tang Dynasty? Hugh said that the current drought is more serious, and only Hebei, Jianghuai, Shannan and other provinces will have bumper harvests, and the country will not worry about grain supply.
Therefore, when it comes to the sorghum of these lands, one by one it is said that three or four stones, which is the highest requirement of people and a dream of sorghum production in this era, and if you think about it, you dare not think about it.
But at present, the technology of these more than ten acres of experimental fields should be available, and the most advanced technology has been adopted since the selection of seeds, at least the most advanced and refined technology in the early nineties of the twentieth century. However, through the catalysis of these technical fertilizers, the natural evolutionary instinct of organisms, and the seeds are also mutating, so everything is possible......
"The prince's sorghum", He Guangzhen became interested and did things for the prince, thinking that he was the prince's person, He Guangzhen said: "Go over and take a look." ”
There are a lot of people watching, the people in the Huangzhuang are catching locusts, and there are many things like the great drought, but luckily there is no locust plague. The others were farmers in the neighborhood, and the officials and scholars were still negligent about the dozen acres of land.
He Guangzhen stood under the sorghum and couldn't help but say, "It's so high." ”
I don't know the harvest, but the height of this pole is so amazing that people can hardly see people when they drill into the sorghum fields.
It's not all good news, some of them let the people in the Huangzhuang plant densely, but the impact is very serious, the height is not as high, the spit ears are very small, and the tenant farmers in the Huangzhuang regret it one by one. There are also some fields that are still growing crazy because of excessive fertilization, and only the poles do not grow ears, which is probably not necessarily a good thing. However, half of the sorghum is growing normally, and now the spike is just a little bit.
But Wu Zetian is very familiar with the Buddhist scriptures, the two from the "Diamond Sutra" to the "Lotus Sutra", from the "Lotus Sutra" to the "Vima Jie Sutra", Li Wei also had to accompany each other, listening dizzy, and finally the afternoon festival began.
The weather is very hot, and the Dharma meeting will last for three days, that is, the people in the audience are in high spirits, and the big monks on the stage are also unbearable, and there are many old monks. And so it was over in a moment. But when the main drama came, I took out some big boxes and some registers.
The purpose of the festival is to promote the Dharma, and to help all sentient beings is to rescue the victims of the disaster in Guanzhong.
Wu Zetian took Li Zhi's hand, took out some gold and silver jewelry, and put it in the box. Li Wei didn't bring anything, thought about it, and wrote a line on the register, Li Hong, Jiang Bier, and Liu Qun donated 3 million yuan. That is, 3,000 yuan, but the money has to come out of the workshop, so the names of Jiang Bier and Liu Qun are hung. But invisibly solved a problem for the businessman, the two saints put on this posture, clearly to blackmail them, but I don't know how much, so that the two saints were happy, but he couldn't steal the limelight of the prince.
So there were a lot of two million and nine hundred thousand dollars, or two million and eight hundred thousand dollars, on the register. Fortunately, there is a lot of strength in people, and after the three-day festival, a total of more than 370,000 yuan was donated. Wu Zetian and Li Zhi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing it in the palace, this was organized by themselves, although Luoyang was somewhat inferior to Chang'an, but the number was small, and they did not get more money from the organization of the Fa Festival, which was inevitably laughable and generous.
But for this puja, many Confucian students were very disgusted in their hearts.
Promoting Buddhism is not very good in itself, and there are as many as 200,000 monks and nuns in the world, and if Taoist priests are added, it will have a serious impact on the country. In addition, this is tantamount to asking for money in a different way, which is even more shameful.
This led to the next palace feast, and half of the ministers fell ill due to the heat.
It's useless to have money alone, you have to transport grain into the customs, which is the most important thing. So the palace feast began, not for any merchant to enter, and only three hundred merchants were selected to attend the banquet in the two capitals. At the same time, the crown prince was accompanied by two prime ministers and ministers.
Li Zhi and Wu Zetian themselves were not present.
Bi'er said: "Your Highness, let you accompany the merchant publicly, and if you spread it, there will be controversy......"
Even this little girl saw it, Li Wei sighed and said, "What if I don't accompany her?" The right to make the father and queen mother happy. ”
Yan Liben and Hao Chujun were equally depressed, although they were seated, their faces were wrinkled like bitter melons.
Anyway, they came. But the other ministers fell ill one by one and had to be absent.
In fact, Li Zhi and Wu Zetian can do this, but Li Wei agrees with it. There are many people affected by the drought, as many as ** million people, but not all places have no harvest, near the rivers and ditches, there are still some harvests of crops, some wet and low lands, the people dig wells to get water, and then in the city, like more than one million people in Chang'an City, but they are not farming for a living, they are either doing hard labor, or engaged in commerce, or work, as long as the price of food is pressed, they have vitality. Besides, if the price of grain is suppressed, the money from the two festivals can get 1 million stone of grain, which will be distributed to the people, and some people will not be able to survive with a little food. The imperial court organized another batch. The crisis is over.
But because of his involvement with businessmen, it became very complicated, and Di Renjie was like this......
Toasted, and said: "Everyone, the nature is good, and then dyed it." Even if it is a businessman, it is not a great traitor. Thank you for this festival for the sake of the victims, for your money and goods, on behalf of the tens of millions of victims. ”
"Your Highness doesn't dare." Respond in unison. Basically, I have never entered the palace, although I am in the shopping mall, and when I enter the palace, I am very nervous, and I dare not drink the wine or eat the food. In fact, when I walked to the palace and saw these tall buildings, some businessmen began to shoot their legs.
"This is the praise you deserve. Not only that, but when Gen Peiji organized the Dharma in Xijing, he specially said that he would turn these donations into food and hand them over to the victims. But you have also seen that the court has done its best, the father and the queen mother are losing weight day by day because of this matter, and the ministers are also not thinking about tea and dinner. However, the water is shallow, and the state cannot dispatch it in time. This world is the world of the father and the emperor, and it is also the world of the people. The world is peaceful, the people are peaceful, and your business will be smooth. If the world is in turmoil, and the people are in turmoil, your business will not go well. So, at this time, it's time to put your mind together. It's not just fundraising, it's food. If you have all kinds of magic ways to transport the grain to Guanzhong, even if you go to sell it. Lone and the prime ministers, you can also protect a few of them who have done well, a knighthood, or even an official position. ”
In a word, the merchant began to buzz and talk.
After hundreds of years of suppression of merchants, the thirst for fame, these merchants are hungry. Besides, it's not for them to raise donations, but to sell, and with the current price gap between Guanzhong and other provinces, there is actually some profit.
Not far away, there were several merchants from Luoyang, and one of them said boldly: "Your Highness, I'm afraid that the two saints will not be willing to do so at that time." ”
Li Wei walked over, pretended to lower his voice mysteriously, and said, "Actually, this is also the meaning of the two saints. It's just that I'm afraid that the ministers will oppose it, as long as you do a good job, there are countless people living in Guanzhong, and the opposition of the ministers will be weaker. ”
Not many people heard it, but after the feast was over, someone else must have asked questions, and it spread just as quickly.
Li Wei wiped a handful of sweat, and thought of a very unpleasant sentence in his heart, not only to be a bitch, but also to set up an archway......
But why did it happen, Li Wei saw it right away.
The news was still revealed, and it was already very roundabout, but the twists and turns of the ministers and Confucian scholars from all over the country flew to Luoyang again like snowflakes.
There are even Confucian scholars who crouched in Qiaonan, Tianjin, crying, saying that the emperor first used witch Gu, and then attached importance to Shangjia, and also made an ancestral precedent to grant Shangjia official titles. But the authentic rain prayer has not been held. Your Majesty, you can't be confused.
Then hit your head on the ground.
But at this time, the imperial court began to deal with Ming Chongyan.
In the early dynasty, Li Zhiwei drank: "If you are sick, you are really sick, and you will also give Ming Chongyan to me!" ”
