Chapter 54: Return to Beijing
(Ran Library)
"What's going on, scared the old man to death," Lao Du looked at Xu Ziling, who had a casual face, and was angry
Xu Ziling looked at the old man blowing his beard and glaring, knowing that he was also concerned about himself, and said with a smile: "Du Gong, I have found a solution to the famine."
"Really," Lao Du knew that this kid wouldn't joke about this kind of thing, and hurriedly asked, "What's the way?"
"Seeing the seeds in the field without seeds," Xu Ziling pointed to a potato seedling in his hand, and said excitedly
Isn't it just a lump of mud, what's so strange about it, what is this round thing, at first Lao Du didn't pay attention to it, thinking that Xu Ziling was carrying a lump of dirt in his hand, but if he looked closely, there were some round items mixed in the soil
"Potato," Xu Ziling said, "This kind of potato can grow in a severe drought and can still be so gratifying, how tenacious this guy's vitality should be."
Lao Du looked at a group of weeds behind Xu Ziling that had withered and yellowed due to lack of water, and a few green plants could be faintly seen in the weeds, and there were more and faster chapters, please get down to business The kind of crops that Xu Ziling said
Lao Du first ordered the soldiers to surround this land, pondered for a while, and said: "Now the drought has just begun, and it is not uncommon to have this kind of crop, but what to do in the future, how do you know that this plant can be planted in an absolutely drought situation?"
Lao Du's analysis hit the nail on the head, Xu Ziling didn't take this level into account, as Lao Du said, now after all, the drought has just begun, and I don't know how long this drought can last, potato planting is indispensable for water, although this thing is very drought-resistant, but a small amount of water is essential, but no matter how much, there is better than nothing, leave it to Li Shimin
"Hehe, this thing's adaptability to drought is still relatively strong, only a small amount of water is needed, and when the time comes, you can get some projects such as the South-to-North Water Diversion, and these things are left to you to go," Xu Ziling said
After listening to Xu Ziling's words, Lao Du's eyes were full of Venus, although the biggest problem of this drought is the lack of water, more and faster chapters, please arrive, but the amount of water supplied by this basic population is still enough, mainly because the amount of irrigated crops is not enough, so it leads to a large area of crops that do not produce and the people cannot eat, which is the root of the drought, so if this thing Xu Ziling said really has such an effect, it is really God bless the Tang Dynasty
"Well, let's see how these things should be handled," Lao Du began
"The main problem is that this potato thing needs a small amount of water, I don't know if it can be supplied, if it can be burned, the library can be updated as soon as possible, and it can be planted in a large area after the beginning of next year," Xu Ziling said after thinking for a long time
"How much water do you need?" asked Lao Du, this is Lao Du's concern, if this crop needs to irrigate a large area of water like Guanzhong chestnut rice, then it can only be done
"It's not a lot of daily water consumption for a farmer on weekdays," Xu Ziling said, "Maybe it won't be so much."
After listening to Xu Ziling's words, Lao Du's expression was full of favoritism, if the guy was really like this, the library would be updated as soon as possible, and the people would be saved
"Really, this is really not much, this little water should still be able to be supplied, so I can't write a letter, you still have to go to Chang'an in person, this is a major event, and your Majesty needs to decide," it can be seen that Lao Du is very excited
Xu Ziling was not excited, looking at this large-scale drought and hungry people along the way, Xu Ziling felt uncomfortable in his heart, he could do something for the people at this moment, how could he be unhappy, he was not a great man, what was a great ambition for the people, Xu Ziling did not burn the library, and the library was updated as soon as possible, but Xu Ziling was not a bad person, and it was incumbent on Xu Ziling to save people
Xu Ziling returned to Beijing with the sample of potatoes quickly, and found Li Shimin without even returning home
"Is there something wrong?" Li Shimin was very concerned about Xu Ziling's personal return, and it was a trivial matter, and he would never let Xu Ziling personally rush back to Beijing
Xu Ziling looked at Li Shimin's nervous look, and he didn't dare to hang his appetite, so he immediately told Li Shimin about the potatoes he found in Huazhou, as well as the advantages of potatoes and drought resistance
"This is true," Li Shimin asked eagerly with an incredulous expression
Xu Ziling had long known that Li Shimin would have doubts, took out the two potatoes in his hand and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, this is a potato, I will go to the room to cook it for you, and you will know."
There are a lot of potatoes to eat, more and faster, what to ask for fried shredded potatoes or something, etc., but Xu Ziling doesn't want to do so much, as long as he can fill his stomach, so Xu Ziling thinks that it is better to cook it directly in water according to the Tang method, although the taste is not very good, but it is definitely not a problem
"I'll go with you," Li Shimin just finished speaking, and the eunuch on the side was anxious, "Your Majesty, you are a daughter, how can you go to a place like a room?"
"Presumptuous, my body is familiar with the world's trust," Li Shimin put forward his wide sleeves and walked quickly towards the room with Xu Ziling, and the library was updated as soon as possible
After learning that Li Shimin had come in person, the gang had already swept away the personnel and left a large number of guards to guard them
Xu Ziling put one of the potatoes into boiling water and boiled it for a while, and after feeling that the potatoes were cooked, he hurriedly took it out, peeled it and ate it
"Oh~ It's so refreshing to be hot for a long time," Xu Ziling hasn't eaten this thing for a long time, and it feels very kind
"Hurry up and take it, I'll try it," Li Shimin couldn't help but dodge the potatoes in Xu Ziling's hand and ate them in a big gulp
Although the taste was not very good, Li Shimin still finished eating it, and a deep smile immediately leaked on his face: "God bless Datang, thank you, God"
Fart, this is obviously Lao Tzu's discovery of the fart matter, you should thank me
"How do you know the habits of this crop," Li Shimin suddenly asked, this Xu Ziling's background information, Li Shimin knew everything, how did he know about this kind of thing
The grass is careless, I am careless, I finally did a good deed, and I was fucking asked by you, what should I say?
"You are responsible for this crop, you are sure that this thing can be highly productive," Li Shimin had no intention of continuing to ask, so he changed the subject
"Your Majesty can rest assured that there will be no problems, but we will have to wait until after the beginning of the year."
It is now the end of September, which means that there is still half a year until the harvest, which means that Li Shimin must ensure that there is enough grain and grass in these places in Guanzhong
Li Shimin frowned and said, "There is no problem."
It's better to live a tight life than to shamelessly go against the past and ask for the family, and Li Shimin will solve this trouble sooner or later, and now he can't compromise on it
