Chapter 130: Three Conditions
Zhao Kang's sweet potato experimental field in Yuanjiang County has a total of five acres of land, all of which are Zhao Kang's.
It is not the best field around Yuanjiang County, but it is not bad, until the afternoon, all the sweet potatoes were pulled out and put in the yard, and the weighing record was recorded.
A total of more than 6,400 catties, far more than the 600 catties that Zhao Kang said before, and even more than tripled.
This is definitely the happiest day since Xiao Linglong ascended the throne, Xiao Xuance can't wait to take the sweet potato: "Lao Zhao, what kind of sweet potato should I eat?" ”
The yield per mu is more than 1,000, and even if he is an idiot, he knows what this means.
For His Royal Highness, the more peaceful the world is, the better, so that he will have more time to pursue freedom.
"You can peel and eat it raw, or you can steam, fry, boil and roast, and sweet potatoes can adapt to various cooking methods! It can also be used to extract starch and make sweet potato flour. ”
Zhao Kang said with a smile: "His stems and leaves can also be used to raise livestock, and it is not an exaggeration to say that his whole body is a treasure!" Your Majesty, today's sweet potato harvest is abundant, why don't we go back first, and the minister will use this sweet potato to get a few dishes for Your Majesty to taste? ”
"Good! Pass the order, eat sweet potatoes for dinner today, everyone eats sweet potatoes! ”
Her Majesty the Empress issued an order, and naturally no one objected, and the civil and military officials also wanted to taste the taste of this sweet potato, whether it could be used as a staple food.
Zhao Kang returned with His Majesty and officials first, while Zhang Long led people and farmers to load sweet potatoes into prepared carts and pull them back to the city.

Gathering all the chefs in the back kitchen of the restaurant, Zhao Kang began to talk to them about several cooking methods of sweet potatoes.
It's all restaurant masters, you don't need to teach, you just need to say it briefly and you will understand it.
As the sweet potatoes were pulled to the restaurant, the chefs began to make them vigorously.
In the restaurant, hundreds of civil and military officials sat down, and after a while, they began to serve food.
Xiao Linglong couldn't wait to taste a roasted sweet potato, which was sweet and soft and glutinous, and just the first bite made Her Majesty the Empress's eyes light up.
All the officials also began to taste it, and everyone was a little surprised.
It was surprisingly delicious.
Immediately afterwards, there were fried sweet potato chips, sweet potato puree, etc., and the chefs of the restaurant were stunned to come up with seven or eight dishes.
In order to increase the sweetness, Zhao Kang also asked the chef to add some sugar, which is also unique to Yuanjiang County.
"It tastes really good."
Wiping the grease on the corner of her mouth with the towel handed by Zhao Kang, Xiao Linglong was full of joy and was obviously very satisfied, and began to ask.
"National teacher, is this thing easy to preserve?"
The most feared thing about food is waste and spoilage, this sweet potato yield is amazing, if it is not stored well and spoiled, it will be a pity.
The surrounding officials also looked over.
Zhao Kang thought for a moment and replied: "Your Majesty is thoughtful, this sweet potato itself is very heavy and it is indeed not easy to preserve, but the consumption of this sweet potato is not only like this, it can be made into sweet potato powder, and it can also be sun-dried into dried sweet potatoes." ”
"This can ensure the diversity of eating methods and not get tired. It can also preserve sweet potatoes to the maximum. ”
"That's very good."
Xiao Linglong put down her chopsticks, closed her eyes slightly, opened them again, and said in a deep voice: "National Teacher Zhao Kang takes the order." ”
Zhao Kang was stunned, why did he suddenly want to announce the holy decree?
He hurriedly saluted, and the officials didn't know what Xiao Linglong was going to do, but a few old men thought of it.
Zhao Kang made this sweet potato, His Majesty would definitely reward it, but now Zhao Kang is already the first national teacher of the hundred officials in terms of official position, and he will reward gold and silver?
Don't make a fuss, who doesn't know that our Majesty is the most picky.
Nothing will be rewarded.
Just when the hundred officials were speculating, Xiao Linglong had already spoken, "The national teacher Zhao Kang sent a divine object to my great cadre to relieve the hunger of my people, which is an immortal achievement." From today, Zhao Kang is named An Guohou, and the fief is Yuanjiang County, and he has been hairpinned for generations. ”
The words fell to hundreds of officials and shocked, and even Zhao Kang was shocked.
The fifth-class lord of Qianguo, the prince and the prince.
An Guohou is naturally a second-class marquis, only below the duke, and this title is also called Chaopin.
It means more than one product!
Even Zhao Kang's title of national teacher is in the first grade, and the title of duke and marquis will never be awarded to anyone other than the emperor's relatives.
Only the group of people who followed the first generation of Emperor Qiandi to make the contribution to the founding of the country have this honor, and it is not hereditary.
And Her Majesty the Empress's last sentence of the generational hairpin almost told everyone present that in the future, Zhao Kang's descendants can inherit Zhao Kang's title!
This is the real Extreme Minister!
All the officials looked at Zhao Kang's bent back in a daze! I have mixed feelings.
Especially Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Zhao, their expressions were even more complicated.
How long has it been?
How long has it been since Zhao Kang was transferred from Yuanjiang County to the imperial capital? It's not been half a year yet, and this has already been knighted! This is the only honor in the entire court!
Zhao Kang bent down and thanked him: "Minister Zhao Kang, thank you Lord Longen!" ”
He didn't expect Xiao Linglong to knight himself, and he didn't react for a while.
"You have no objections, right?"
Xiao Linglong raised her voice and asked, and a series of His Majesty Shengming followed.
Li Yuan turned his wine glass, he had always been optimistic about Zhao Kang before, and he smiled and whispered: "It seems that there will be another Zhao family again." ”
After speaking, he also glanced at the positions of the officials of Honglu Temple, and the expressions of those officials were so wonderful and exciting.
Li Yuan couldn't help but squint his eyes when he thought about it, and his heart suddenly jumped, looking at Zhao Kang, who was sitting next to Her Majesty the Empress again: "Your Majesty shouldn't want to launch a quick knife!" ”
The feast was dispersed, and everyone withdrew.
Liubu Shangshu and Taigong Taifu appeared in the same room very tacitly.
And in the Yuanjiang Restaurant.
There were only two people in the room, Zhao Kang and Her Majesty the Empress, and Zhao Kang didn't dare to do anything else, because he was invited by Xiao Linglong from the yamen after dinner.
This shows that Xiao Linglong has something important.
"Presumably, many ministers have begun to gather in one place now to discuss the true purpose of my title for you."
Xiao Linglong said lightly with her chin on her chin.
Zhao Kang said softly: "What do you want me to do." ”
Xiao Linglong lowered her eyes: "Behind Lin Lang of Honglu Temple is the Lin family, and the clan in the imperial capital has a lot of power, if you have a grudge with them this time, if it is just a high-powered national teacher, then they will not be afraid." ”
"But now that you have a knighthood, they won't dare to act rashly."
Zhao Kang was stunned: "Just because of this, you give me the title of marquis?" ”
Xiao Linglong raised her head: "This is just one of them." ”
Saying that, Her Majesty the Empress got up, walked to the window alone, looked at the scene outside the window, and said lightly: "There are many clans in Qianguo. The big and small are intertwined, and it's time for someone to clean up these clans. ”
Xiao Linglong: "Mr. Zhang told me one thing, you once said that you would be the biggest clan in the world and come to shelter all the students studying in school, then I will give you this opportunity, you said it, you will help me, can you do it?" ”
Zhao Kang smiled, and sure enough, it was the same as he thought!
