Zhao Fang's eyes widened all of a sudden, and he blurted out: "Is it useless to cry......

Gu Yanzhang casually picked up a few grains of millet that accidentally fell out in front of him, and said: "When I was young, I had a big temperament, and I was the last in line, I was very doted on by my grandparents, and my tears were first-class, and it became reasonable to be unreasonable." In the end, my brother was taught a lesson, so he had to agree to let me only spend half an hour a day on farming, and I didn't take much care of it. ”

Hearing the three words "big temperament", Zhao Fang immediately thought of Zhang Bi, his eyes flashed slightly, and even his sitting posture relaxed for two points, but he was completely unconscious, and after a trance, he calculated in his heart again, and said: "There is only half an hour a day, I'm afraid it's not enough, right?" The millet is more drought-tolerant, and the wheat always has to be taken care of, and it is ...... in Yanzhou."

In the year of farming, although Zhao Fang didn't get much harvest, when it came to the way of cropping, it was already very troublesome.

The little emperor wanted to save face for his husband, so he naturally said it politely, but Gu Yanzhang, who was a gentleman, was very frank and said: "Serious grains are naturally not good to grow, but I will make a look to fertilize and water for a while, or three or five days, or a small half month, and the weeds in that place grow tall and neat, and finally cut a few handfuls, and pick out the good ones for the elders in the family to insert bottles - my grandmother also praised that the grass is very green and strong, with a smell of grass, and ordinary strange flowers are not as good as it." ”

Zhao Fang was dumbfounded.

As an elder brother disciplining his younger brother, he was taught a lesson by his elders; As a younger brother's farming, he grows weeds in a field, and he can also boast of flowers.

He was young and had little knowledge, so it was the first time that his eyes were so open-minded, and he couldn't help but ask, "I don't know where that brother is now?" ”

Gu Yanzhang didn't answer, only poured the millet in the palm of his hand back into the rice pile, and said: "Compared with Weichen who gave up halfway back then, Your Majesty has a beginning and a tail now, and has already planted five grains, although there are not many ripe grains, if you come again next year, choose only one or two grains, will it be the same as this time?" ”

After planting for a year, his back was hunched, Zhao Fang was tired and tired, with bitter tears in his stomach, but he really did it himself, but he was cautious, and carefully calculated in his heart for a long time, before he said: "Although there is a well near my original field, there is no river, and it is difficult to ......grow rice."

He listed the problems encountered in farming this year one by one, and finally came to the conclusion: "Unless you only grow millet, you can be sure of ......."

Gu Yanzhang asked, "Your Majesty has ever eaten millet rice?" ”

Zhao Fang shook his head.

Gu Yanzhang was noncommittal, and only assigned him another matter, that is, to take ten years as a period, and compare the number of grains produced in the land of Gyeonggi in the same proportion since the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty.

***

Gu Yanzhang only mentioned it, Zhao Fang observed his words and looks, and he had already taken both things to heart, and ordered to eat rice that night.

Although millet is also one of the five grains, there are not many people in Gyeonggi who use it as a staple food, and most of them are used for sake brewing or confectionery.

It is said that it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality, Zhao Fang has suffered a lot in the Qin Palace, and the life when he first entered Beijing was also very difficult, but after entering the palace, Empress Dowager Yang simply put him in her eyes and did not feel pain, especially in terms of diet, she was carefully cared for, and she did not get tired of eating and drinking.

Accustomed to eating polished rice, at this time, as soon as the chopsticks and rice were eaten, Zhao Fang felt that the taste was very rough, and his throat and eyes were still slightly itchy.

At first, he only thought that the taste was not very good, but after eating it for a few days, the digestion was not very good.

The Tai Hospital asked the Son of Heaven for peace every day, and soon noticed that something was wrong, reported it to the Empress Dowager Yang, and went back to check the diet, and it didn't take long to bring out the culprit of the indigestible rice.

Empress Dowager Yang had no choice but to ask her son, and persuaded him: "Your Majesty is growing up, and your spleen and stomach are not good, so you can't eat millet rice every day—why did you suddenly have the idea of eating millet rice?" ”

Zhao Fang hurriedly agreed, first admitted his mistake, and then said what happened in class a few days ago, and said: "Queen Mother, I checked the file according to what Mr. said, and found that if you plant millet, you can get more than 100 catties a year from an acre of land, and no matter how good it is, it is only more than 200 catties. ”

The details of this kind of crop, Empress Dowager Yang has never planted the land, and she naturally does not know it by looking at the recitals of this year and two years alone, so she asked: "Rice is enough, you have to have paddy fields to plant, but why don't they grow wheat?" ”

Zhao Fang said: "The wheat in the Central Plains is planted in autumn and harvested in spring and summer, and millet is planted in spring and harvested in autumn, and the two are not very hindered, but the land in the northwest is barren and arid, and wheat is difficult to grow. ”

He paused, and said with emotion: "Queen Mother, Erchen originally heard Fan Xianggong say that ordinary peasant families, accumulate more than three years, can get a year's food, although at that time I also felt that farmers are bitter, but I don't know why they are so bitter, I always feel that there is also a reason why they are not motivated, but this is very inappropriate, and they dare not ask, and it is not easy to say." This time, I have planted the land, and I realized that the suffering of the peasants, although there are also their own reasons, but they are mostly limited by God. ”

"The same is hard work, a family in Fengxiang Mansion can only get two or three stones of millet a year per acre of land, farmers in Taiyuan Mansion can get seven or eight stones of wheat and two stones of millet rice, and a family can get more than ten stones of rice on the east and west roads of the south of the Yangtze River - is it possible that the farmers of Fengxiang don't want to grow wheat and rice? But it's just congenitally insufficient. ”

Empress Dowager Yang has been busy in the front hall for a day, and she is really exhausted, but now she can see that this nominal son is talking about farming with herself, even if due to age and experience, many of the contents are only superficial, but his worried country is and dedicated to the people, but it is like a panacea, soothing her tired body and mind.

She felt something in her heart, and naturally showed something, and her gaze at her son softened more and more, and said: "My son cares about the people, and this is what Mingjun did—what is the solution?" ”

Zhao Fang was a little surprised, thought about it, but still said: "Erchen checked the records of various states and counties for a hundred years, in addition to the catastrophe and disaster, the grain produced by the acres of fields in various places is mostly very stable, and there is not much change, only two, in a few years, but the yield of the acres of Jiangnan East Road and Taiyuan Mansion has increased by more than three percent or two percent, the first time is the ancestor Taizong years, Jiaozhi paid tribute to rice seeds, and now it is called Zhancheng rice, and the court sent it to Jiangnan East Road for trial planting, and the latter time is a farmer who offered new wheat seeds and sent them to Taiyuan Mansion for trial planting......
