After Zhu Di led the troops away, Zhu Gaochi and Cheng Yuan were left in Beiping Mansion, and the other generals were all brought, leaving Zhu Bai, Daoyan, Qiu Fu and others to garrison Beiping City.

In the basement of the annex, Cheng Yuan has always strictly forbidden anyone to enter, even if it is to clean it, he is the only one.

At present, Zhu Gaochi first wants to prepare grain, grass and weapons for Zhu Di, and when more firearms are researched in the future, the Ming Dynasty will be able to include the land of the four seas in the Han family.

As long as Zhu Di establishes political power in the future, it will only be sooner rather than too late to go to the West, and it will be a good time for Cheng Yuan.

He wanted to speak Han dialect all over the world and spread the culture of the Central Plains to all places.

Those good sons of the four seas, you are waiting to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty as a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Cheng Yuan has sunk into the future Yongle prosperous world, and he can't extricate himself.

The end of the Jingjing tribulation within a year will require a huge amount of grain, grass, manpower, and material resources.

Sweet potatoes have been dispersed and planted, and the corn seeds given by the system have grown as tall as calves, which is also what Cheng Yuan wants to see.

The poultry manure of the Ming Dynasty was made into fertilizer and used on sweet potatoes and corn, and these high-yielding crops did not have food for the people.

As for the problem that eating too many sweet potatoes will cause flatulence, and corn is also prone to indigestion, it is nothing in front of the soldiers who need strong military supplies.

And now, Chengyuan already has sweet potatoes and corn in Daming, and sweet potatoes have been planted for half a year, plus those high-yield rice ears, the grain stored in the basement is enough for the army to eat for half a year.

Outside the city, which is less than a few dozen miles away, Liu Dazhui and his family harvested a lot of grass in April, which has been dried and bagged and placed in farmers' homes.

Every time he signs in, Cheng Yuan has to find a suitable excuse to take out the items, otherwise he will be suspicious.

Zhu Di is very smart, and ordinary people can't fool him.

After Zhu Gaochi saw that Zhu Di led the army out of the city, he also had to worry about dealing with logistics, and immediately thought of the good military division left by the old man for him, and immediately returned to King Yan's mansion to find him.

At this time, Cheng Yuan was supervising everyone in the garden to remove the weeds from the corn seedlings, and began to apply fertilizer, which was just right in April and May, and in August and September, it was yellow and clear golden corn.

Zhu Gaochi said: "Sir, why are you still farming here, hurry up and follow me to the study, so that we can discuss the preparation of food and grass for the army." ”

When marching and fighting, grain and grass are the first.

The world is sober, and Zhu Gaochi naturally understands this truth.

Cheng Yuan was not in a hurry, but got up slowly, followed behind Zhu Gaochi and said, "Lord Shizi, I believe you have this ability." ”

Zhu Gaochi smiled and said: "Sir, don't praise me, if you don't prepare food and grass, the old man will have to clean me up when he comes back." ”

Cheng Yuan laughed.

Zhu Gaochi was a little puzzled, what was Mr. laughing at, "Sir, aren't you in a hurry about food and grass at all." ”

Looking at Cheng Yuan, Zhu Gaochi asked his own question, and his face was more anxious.

"Lord Shizi, don't worry. In fact, I had already prepared the grain and grass for my hundreds of brothers in April, in that small village outside the city of Beiping. ”

Cheng Yuan's face was calm, without the slightest hint of urgency, he looked at Zhu Gaochi and said, "Come with me to see." ”

Zhu Gaochi was chubby, and his body moved.

"Okay, I'll go to General Qiu Fu and let them go to transport grain and grass together. Don't lie to me, sir. ”

"How could I lie to you, this forage is prepared for the world, but for clarity, every batch of grain and grass should be written down clearly, to prevent others from doing anything."

Zhu Gaochi looked at the sky and ordered someone to go to transport the forage, and he and Cheng Yuan rode on horses and rushed to the village.

………………

When he saw that the people at the entrance of the village were constantly transporting forage, Zhu Gaochi was chubby and his face was surprised.

Qiu Fu and Dao Yan were also a little surprised.

"This ...... Forage ......" Zhu Gaochi stammered a little excitedly.

"What's wrong with this grain and grass?" Cheng Yuan asked.

Zhu Gaochi said: "This forage is enough for a year, sir, how did you do it." ”

There was a hint of admiration in Daoyan's eyes, he told King Yan many times to raise troops, but every time the prince shirked it, who knew that Cheng Yuan came to the palace for less than half a year and said that the prince would raise troops.

originally thought that he would only play tricks, but who knew that he really had some skills.

Qiu Fu ordered people to count the forage, this time the forage was enough for a year, and they could worry less.

The matter of grain and grass was easily solved by Cheng Yuan, and there was no difficulty at all. Zhu Gaochi asked, "How are these forages prepared?" ”

Cheng Yuan replied truthfully: "The last time I gave the people red potatoes, they wanted to thank me, so I asked them to cut 300 catties of grass each.

And the former brothers, who were captured by the Tartars and escaped, know where the fodder is the most. They are all men who may endure hardships, so naturally there are. ”

"I see, the poor monk admires." Dao Yan walked over and arched his hand.
