Seeing these ministers so surprised, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.

At that time, in front of Lu Ning, he also behaved like this, and he had never seen the world.

"Aiqing heard me right, what we are talking about is 6,000 catties, and it has been inspected on the spot, this kind of potato is easy to live in the middle, and it can be grown on any land."

As soon as this sentence came out, the scene was almost about to explode.

Liang Wanquan, the head of the household, got up first, and he bowed deeply to Zhu Yuanzhang and said.

"Your Majesty, this is a rare auspicious fortune in my dynasty, if we have this crop, our country's grain can increase more than ten times, in other words, our population and inventory can also increase more than ten times."

As the head of the household, he is particularly aware that with such an agricultural product, the role played by the Ming Dynasty is almost immeasurable.

In fact, over the years, it has not been easy for Lord Hubu Shangshuliang.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang had to go on the Northern Expedition and disaster relief, as well as the reconstruction of important areas since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and there was basically no surplus grain in the household department.

However, he had no way to complain, after all, if he followed Emperor Hongwu, he might go to the guillotine if he didn't agree.

Now there are potatoes as a crop, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty will definitely become stronger, after all, this is ten times the output.

The people do not suffer from hunger and cold, so the taxes will naturally increase, and the household department will have money to come out, which is also the political achievement of his own Shangshu.

Just when he wanted to say a few more words, Ma Feixiong, the secretary of the military department, also said excitedly.

"Your Majesty, in fact, since this potato can make rations for the people, it can make military rations for the army, and we have not been able to completely exterminate the remnants, just because the supply of armaments and military supplies is sometimes not available, and there is no need to worry about it with this potato."

Other officials were not to be outdone, and they analyzed the benefits that potatoes can bring, and Zhu Yuanzhang was happy.

At this moment, Hu Weiyong, the left prime minister of Zhongshu Province, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke.

"Please forgive me for fighting for the minister, the minister wants to ask, where did Your Majesty get this artifact?"

Seeing that someone finally asked the point, Zhu Yuanzhang replied without thinking.

"Do you remember the miracle doctor who took antibiotics last time? It is Lu Ning Lu Zi'an of Changning County, and this potato and wine are also his inventions. ”

As soon as this sentence came out, the ministers below were completely fried.

This Lu Ning turned out to be a genius, not only able to have such attainments in medicine, but also to make wine, and also to have such research on agriculture.

If I had to use one word to describe such a person, I am afraid that he could only be summed up by the word demon.

At this time, Hu Weiyong, who is the prime minister of Zuo, naturally has to ask the court for credit for this person.

"Your Majesty has such a gap, and he can hand over all the things he has studied to the imperial court for free, how can such a person be buried? It must be served heavily. ”

Sun Kai, the secretary of the ministry, took over and said.

"What Hu Xiang said is extremely true, such a talent is very rare, and he should not be buried in Changning County, and he should be recruited into the imperial court to give him fame."

Everyone also echoed the voice, but this time they didn't have any partisanship, and it was all from their hearts.

Whether it is the Huaixi Party or the Zhedong Party, everyone understands that Lu Ning's contribution this time is by no means an exaggeration even if it is given to a marquis.

Therefore, their recommendation of Lu Ning is naturally unanimous.

Seeing that everyone said this, Zhu Yuanzhang replied with an indifferent smile.

"You don't know this Lu Zi'an, he just wants to be a free rich man in Changning, and I'm afraid he is unwilling to deal with the complicated things in the court."

Although he said so, if he did not reward such a great achievement, it would seem that the court was very cool, and after thinking about it carefully, Zhu Yuanzhang said to the official department.

"Let's look at it, you discuss it with Zhongshu Province, and immediately draft a holy decree, seal Lu Ning as a male in Changning County, and treat it as a positive second product, and reward the good land."

Liang Kai, the secretary of the ministry, and Hu Weiyong, the prime minister of Zhongshu Province, looked at each other, and they both felt that such a reward was obviously too low.

However, the emperor is a golden mouth, and since the words have been spoken, there is naturally no reason to take them back, and they can only follow them.

When the official sent by the Ministry of Officials came to Changning County, Liu Changlu was directly taken aback, he had just been promoted to the fifth rank, and he had to be promoted again.

But Qin Cha didn't give Liu County Ling face at all, and directly asked him to invite Lu Ning to set up an incense case to receive the order.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Lu Ning offered potatoes, and assisted the county order to govern the local meritorious, and immediately named the Changning County man, the official uniform is regarded as the second grade, and gave the good land to comfort the loyal ministers, Qin this."

After Lu Ning received the order to thank him, he said to Liu Changlu helplessly.

"It seems that my uncle put the credit for this potato sacrifice on me, but I feel that it is a burden to have this title, I am an idle crane and do not want to get involved in any disputes."

Liu Xianling, who was next to him, didn't think of so much, just looked at Lu Ning with a smile and said.

"How do you say this, as long as you have the ability, you will never be buried anywhere, and now you have to call my brother a lord."

Lu Ning pursed his lips and said to him helplessly.

"Don't call it that, my back is cold, there should be no such thing, you can take my 100 taels of silver a year, and I can be regarded as contributing to our county."
