Chapter 750: Fusu in high spirits
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows about this fruit?"
Han Xin and the others looked at him in surprise.
They brought it back to share it with everyone, and at the same time, they also wanted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to recognize it, what kind of fruit is this?
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't even look at it, just smelled the smell and knew it!
"Hmmm! Have a smattering of......! ”
Ying Feiyu nodded very modestly, "But I've only heard from Master, and I haven't really eaten it, and I don't know much about it!" ”
In order not to make these guys suspicious, Xiao Zhengtai moved out the legendary master again!
"Mango can be said to be full of treasures, juicy and delicious, not to mention, it can also be made into canned food or jam, wine, medicine, you can do it! The flat nucleus you are talking about has the effect of soothing wind and relieving cough, and the leaves and bark of the tree can be used to make dyes! Thanks to its hard wood, it can also be used as furniture! ”
"Yo! I didn't expect this fruit to be so useful! ”
Han Xin and the others were taken aback.
When they found out about the fruit, they only thought it had a unique taste, and they didn't know anything else!
After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said this, they knew the importance of this mango!
No wonder this fruit tree was planted in many parts of the Mauryan Empire!
"Since this fruit is so good, let's give everyone some of it!"
Ying Zheng was generous, waved his hand, and directly asked someone to bring a small bowl, and served a small bowl to everyone.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
The ministers shouted in unison and thanked each other.
When Han Xin and the others described it before, they didn't feel anything.
Later, after the prince's explanation, they suddenly became interested!
"Hmmm! The taste of this fruit is really unusual, and it has a unique fragrance! ”
The small bowl full of canned mangoes was the first to be handed to Ying Zheng.
After tasting a small bite, I was really shocked, and I couldn't stop praising it, "The taste of this fruit is really good, not worse than lychee at all!" ”
Because lychees are difficult to preserve, Yingzheng could not eat fresh lychees until the railway was built.
After Ying Feiyu put down Zhao Tuo's rebellion, he brought some canned lychees back, and Ying Zheng knew that fruits that were difficult to preserve could still be made into canned food, so he often asked Lingnan to pay tribute to canned lychees!
Now with the train, it will take a full four or five days from Lingnan to Xianyang.
Eight-cooked lychees are loaded onto the train and iced, and they can be sent to the palace!
"Feiyu, you can try it too!"
I heard that Ying Feiyu hadn't tasted it either, so Fusu hurriedly beckoned him over and tasted it together.
"Good!"
Ying Feiyu didn't think about it, and immediately responded.
Not to mention, in the more than nine years since he came to Daqin, the types of fruits he has eaten are really limited!
I haven't even seen mango, and I'm very greedy!
took the small bowl and looked at the mango that had been peeled and pitted, Ying Feiyu suddenly felt cordial.
One bite down, it's still that familiar taste!
"Hmmm! Delicious! ”
Except for nodding, Ying Feiyu really didn't know what to say.
"It's a pity that the road is far away, otherwise, you can introduce it to Daqin and let the people taste it!"
After Fusu tasted it, he was also quite surprised, so he thought of planting.
"Childe, when I was leaving, I really dug up a few and planted them in the soil, but I don't know if I can survive?"
Wang Li said with a smile.
"Oh? Where is it? ”
As soon as he heard this, Fusu immediately put down the remaining half bowl and asked with interest.
"It's in the cabin......!"
Wang Li pointed in the direction of the dock, "This kind of tree grows in the Peacock Dynasty, and it's hot there, our Xianyang has now entered winter, and it's too cold, so we didn't dare to bring it out at all!" ”
"That's right! Mango trees need plenty of sunlight and temperature, and are not suitable for growing in Xianyang! ”
Ying Feiyu nodded firmly.
"Huh? Didn't I bring it back in vain? ”
Wang Li was slightly disappointed.
"It doesn't matter, the Academy of Agricultural Sciences has a greenhouse, and the temperature inside can be adjusted!"
Fusu looked very excited and personally took someone to pick it up.
"So, our Great Qin is not suitable for the cultivation of this mango tree?"
Hearing that the mango tree is full of treasures, Yingzheng was a little tempted.
But if the growth environment is not suitable, then there is really no way!
"Nope! Although the climate of Xianyang is not suitable for the growth of mango trees, there is no problem in the Lingnan area! ”
Lychees and bananas grow well in Lingnan, and mangoes are even more so.
"That's great, I'll send someone to the Peacock Dynasty to dig up saplings and plant them in Lingnan, so that the people of Daqin can also taste this delicious fruit, haha!"
Ying Zheng decided immediately.
"In addition to Lingnan, mangoes can also be grown in the Nanyang area, but it is a problem in transportation, and they can only be made into canned food!"
The climate of the South Seas is warmer than that of the Mauryan Empire, and it is also very suitable for mango growth!
However, mangoes are high in moisture and are not easy to preserve, so it is impossible to transport fresh ones to all parts of Daqin for sale!
"This mango has a unique aroma, even if it is canned, it tastes good!"
Ying Zheng kept scooping canned mangoes into his mouth, and kept praising them.
"Hmmm! Not bad indeed! ”
Although the taste of mango after canning is a little worse, it is better than pure natural, and the mango flavor is strong, and it can be scored about eight points.
If the mango tree is successfully planted and the fresh fruit is picked and eaten, the taste will definitely be stronger than this!
Ying Zheng dried three bowls of canned mangoes in one go, and only after burping did he stop!
After the other ministers finished eating, they were embarrassed to ask for more, so they could only glance at the jars containing canned food while agreeing.
The banquet lasted until very late, and Yingzheng and the Manchu civil and military forces drank a lot of wine, and then they returned with a lot of joy!
The next day is the reward for meritorious deeds, according to the size of the military merit, the official who should be awarded the official, and the reward who should be rewarded!
Now, in addition to Han Xin, Peng Yue, Fan Hao and others, who have been following Ying Feiyu, have also been given a lot of official positions, and have been rewarded with mansions and gold and silver!
But when Ying Feiyu came to the other garden, they were still here, training as usual, and they had no intention of leaving!
"Can you still rely on this prince's palace for the rest of your life?"
Ying Feiyu crossed his hands on his waist and muttered angrily.
With these guys dangling under their noses, they always feel awkward when they want to do something.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really right, we plan to stay in this villa for the rest of our lives!"
"That's right! We were all promoted by His Royal Highness the Prince, and we want to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for a lifetime! ”
"Yes......!"
A few people had words in their mouths
When I first selected these 3,000 Flying Eagles, it was really to give him a nursing home!
The money earned from doing business is his private property, and it will definitely not be sent to the treasury of the palace!
So they all put it in the other garden and found them to guard it!
But now that there is a bank, most of the money earned by various industries is sent to the bank for safekeeping.
What is stored in the other garden is some famous calligraphy and paintings, treasures and jade wares and the like, how can they let so many people protect them?
