Chapter 249: Clear Piercing Seven

The thirteenth elder brother restrained his smile and stared at Su Qingni with a pair of deep eyes: "What is your purpose?"

Su Qingni was not frightened by the expression of the thirteenth elder brother at all, and said calmly: "There is no purpose, I just remind you that Western countries are not barbarians, and they will suffer their own losses if they underestimate others." ”

The thirteenth elder brother still had a calm face, his eyes locked on Su Qingni, and he was judging whether Su Qingni had other plans.

Su Qingni looked at the thirteenth elder brother without fear.

After a long while, the thirteenth elder brother withdrew his gaze, and the expression on his face softened.

"You're not one of those people from the Heaven and Earth Society. ”

Su Qingni rolled her eyes: "If I were a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, would I save you, the prince of the Manchu Dynasty?"

The thirteenth elder brother laughed and said, "What if you want to get close to me and enter the royal family in the name of a life-saving benefactor and be an undercover agent of the Heaven and Earth Society?"

Su Qingni also hehe: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and the women in the backyard are not allowed to take care of their husband's affairs." What idiot would go undercover in someone else's backyard. ”

The thirteenth elder brother smiled easily: "It's hard to say." ”

Su Qingni threw him a pair of health balls: "My father is an official of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, how stupid am I to join the Heaven and Earth Society?"

The thirteenth elder brother laughed, and the atmosphere on the ship became extremely relaxed.

After a while, the thirteenth elder brother stopped laughing and asked Su Qingni: "Do you know anything about Western countries, why should I be wary of Western countries?"

Su Qingni sighed and said, "That's because I met a Westerner before, and I heard some history of Western countries from his mouth. Do you know why Western countries are just small lands, why they have developed and grown?"

The thirteenth elder brother really didn't know, so he humbly asked Su Qingni for advice.

Su Qingni: "Western countries opened the Age of Discovery as early as the Ming Dynasty. The ships of the Westerners not only came to the Ming Dynasty at that time, but also reached the other two continents of the world where only indigenous people lived and no country. They occupied the continent, plundered the resources there and returned to their own country, to develop their own country. Thus they were reckless, and they set their sights on the land of the Lord. The Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty were still relatively powerful, and they did not dare to do anything against the Qing Dynasty, so some other countries suffered. The land was occupied by Westerners, the people were enslaved by Westerners, and those countries became colonies of Western countries. ”

"Does the thirteenth elder brother know about Tianzhu?"

The thirteenth elder brother nodded, where would he not know, this is an ancient country with a long history, and it is said that Master Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty went to Tianzhu to learn the scriptures.

Su Qingni threw a bomb: "Tianzhu has become a colony of England. ”

The thirteenth elder brother gasped. If the Qing Dynasty continued to regard Western countries as barbarians and despise Western countries, would one day the Great Qing Dynasty also become the second Tianzhu?

The Thirteenth Elder Brother has raised his vigilance against Western countries. It's just that he is just a prince, what can he do? Will his emperor Ama and his brothers listen to him and become wary of Western countries?

The thirteenth elder brother didn't have much confidence. Although Huang Ama attaches great importance to Western culture, he thinks that he is the emperor of the Celestial Empire, and does not attach importance to Western barbarians. And their own brothers...... There is already a sign of the modern Kowloon succession, the brothers' minds are in that position, where is the mind to put on other things?

The thirteenth elder brother wiped his face, is it really like Su Qingni proposed, go to the Western countries to see in person and collect more information?

It's just that without the permission of Huang Ama, the prince can't go out of Beijing at will. What's more, if you want to go abroad, Huang Ama will definitely not allow it, right?

Ouch hey, trouble, what trouble!

The thirteenth elder brother couldn't help complaining about Su Qingni: "You really gave me a big problem. ”

Su Qingni snorted lightly: "I'm just reminding you, it's up to you whether you want to listen or not." Anyway, the Qing Dynasty belongs to the Aixin Jueluo family, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

The thirteenth elder brother gritted his teeth: "I really thank you." ”

Su Qingni saw that the thirteenth elder brother looked like he had a big toothache, and decided to tell him a good news to relieve his headache temporarily.

Su Qingni spoke: "I have not only heard these headache-inducing news from Westerners, but also heard a good news. ”

"What's the good news?" asked the thirteenth elder brother hurriedly.

Su Qingni said: "Westerners have discovered three high-yielding food crops, namely potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn. These three crops are drought tolerant and not very selective about the land, but the yield is not low, and the yield per mu is two or three times higher than that of today's best grain varieties. ”

"Are you serious?" The thirteenth elder brother stood up suddenly, and with this force, he almost overturned the boat, and he almost fell into the water.

Su Qingni grabbed the arm of the thirteenth elder brother and stopped him from falling into the water.

When Xiaozhou regained his balance, Su Qingni let go of his hand and glanced at the thirteenth elder brother: "Sit down and talk, I don't want to go into the lake to take a bath." ”

The thirteenth elder brother sat down stupidly, but then reached out and grabbed Su Qingni's arm, and asked eagerly, "What you said is true, is there really such a high-yield grain seed?"

Su Qingni understood the mood of the thirteenth elder brother, and didn't care about him grabbing his arm hard, well, it was a little painful.

"It's true. Su Qingni said, "I can draw the appearance of the three crops, you can have people find them, and then try to plant them yourself to see how the effect is." ”

"Then please. The thirteenth elder brother said busily, "When I return to the capital, I will find someone to go to sea and go to Western countries to find three kinds of food crops." ”

"You don't have to go to sea. Su Qingni said, "These three crops were introduced to our country during the Ming Dynasty. However, because the government did not pay attention to it at that time, now only southern Fujian and other areas near the sea will be planted. You can find it by sending someone to the coastal area to look for it. ”

"Such a good thing is not valued?" the thirteenth elder brother was surprised, "No wonder the Ming Dynasty will perish." ”

Su Qingni was hehe. There are various reasons for the fall of the Ming Dynasty, but if it weren't for Chongzhen's bad luck, after ascending to the throne, it was either a natural disaster here or there, which led to the people's misery and civil uprisings, and it would not have allowed the Manchus to take advantage of the loopholes and let them enter the Central Plains.

Su Qingni told the thirteenth elder brother about the potato and sweet potato, not to help the Manchu rulers, but for the people of the whole world. Kangxi is still wise now, and after getting three crops, he will promote the three crops to the world, so that the people will have more food and will reduce the number of starvations. The lives of the people are also a little better.

Telling the Thirteenth Elder Brother about the Western Powers is not to help the Manchus, but to help the whole of China. A hundred years of humiliation or something, I still don't want it.
