Chapter 75: Little Greens

Hu Changan thought for a moment and agreed to this suggestion.

At present, only by talking directly with Liangguo Gong Lanyu can this problem be solved.

Out of the prince's mansion, Hu Changan rushed to the East Palace non-stop.

This kind of big thing, the prince still has to know a thing or two.

After all, with his own strength, Hu Changan has not yet been sure to convince the dignified Liangguo Gong Lanyu.

If you tell Zhu Yuanzhang directly, then Lan Yu and Li Shanchang will have to be severely criticized.

In order to turn a big thing into a small thing, Hu Changan still decided to discuss it with the prince first to see if he could be private.

The East Palace is in the territory of the Forbidden City.

After entering the Forbidden City, Hu Changan first took a detour and went to look at his potato field.

Under the careful care of the three farmers, the potatoes are lush and green, and it is estimated that they will ripen in a short time.

Hu Changan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Potatoes are the foundation of their future life in the court, and this must not be sloppy.

The small green vegetables on the side are also green, and the growth is quite gratifying.

In the late autumn when everything is withering, this green color is particularly valuable.

Hu Changan thought about it, and ordered the farmer Zhang San to pack a basket of small greens for him.

When you go to visit His Royal Highness the Prince, you can't naturally have an empty hand, and this little green vegetable is the best gift.

Carrying a basket of small vegetables, Hu Changan walked to the East Palace happily.

......

Today, the crown prince Zhu Biao happened to rest in the East Palace.

Hearing the news that Hu Changan was coming, Zhu Biao was also very happy.

He had long known Hu Changan's heroic anti-epidemic deeds from Feng Qing, the county magistrate of Jiangning County.

If it weren't for Hu Changan, Zhu Biao believed that the epidemic in Jiangning County would definitely not have subsided so quickly.

In the face of Hu Changan, who has made great contributions this time, Zhu Biao is also very satisfied.

It seems that it is time to give Hu Changan a half-official position in the court.

Under the leadership of his subordinates, Hu Changan slowly walked into the lobby.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhu Biao saw the little green vegetables Hu Changan was carrying in his hand: "Hu Aiqing, this is ...... Fresh greens from the ground? ”

Although you are a prince, Zhu Yuanzhang was still fighting around when Zhu Biao was a child, so he also experienced a hard time.

Doing farm work or something, Zhu Biao is also very good at it.

So Zhu Biao could see at a glance that this basket of small greens had just been picked in the ground.

At other times, this is not unusual, but now it is late autumn!

The north wind blows on the body, pulling out the coolness.

In this kind of weather, the small greens in the field have long since died, why do Hu Chang'an still have fresh vegetables here?

Looking at Zhu Biao's uncertain eyes, Hu Changan also smiled slightly: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, this is indeed what the minister just picked in the ground." ”

"Chen invented a thing called a greenhouse before, which can grow fresh vegetables even in winter."

"If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn't dislike it, I can send someone to guide His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to also have one, so that His Highness can also eat fresh vegetables in winter."

What?

Fresh vegetables can be eaten in winter?!

Zhu Biao was shocked.

Doesn't this mean that the so-called greenhouse can be used to grow food in winter?

Wouldn't the people under the Ming Dynasty be able to grow a crop of rice again?!

Zhu Biao hurriedly told Hu Changan what he thought.

But Hu Changan shook his head and broke Zhu Biao's expectations: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this method can only be planted on a small scale, and it cannot be extended to the whole territory. ”

"When I built this greenhouse, I used silk and vegetable oil."

"Such precious things can only be consumed by the noble family, and ordinary farmers cannot afford to buy them at all."

Hu Changan also sighed slightly.

is worthy of His Royal Highness the Prince, who cares about the people, and his first reaction is whether this thing can benefit the people.

However, in ancient times, cheap and practical plastic films had not yet been widely popularized, and expensive silk could only be used to build greenhouses.

So it's a pity that this kind of greenhouse technology can only be used by the nobles' families to grow some vegetables for recreation.

When Zhu Biao heard this, he was also slightly disappointed.

Soon, though, he was happy again.

It's also good to be able to grow some vegetables on a small scale, at least you don't have to gnaw on cabbage in winter.

After Zhu Biao ordered someone to send Xiao Qingcai to the kitchen, Hu Changan and Zhu Biao finally sat down and chatted about business.

Hu Changan took a sip of tea and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, when Weichen went to Lishui County to promote the Lijia system this time, he found that someone in the family secretly turned the farmers belonging to the government into their own tenant farmers in private. ”

"A village is full of tenant farmers from big families, and it is naturally impossible for the Lijia system to be promoted in this village."

Zhu Biao also frowned when he heard this.

I didn't expect Zhu Yuanzhang to be so high-pressure, but there are still families who don't have long eyes to provoke that sensitive red line.

"Hu Aiqing, I don't know which families committed such a big crime?"

Hu Changan cleared his throat and said, "Back to Your Highness, as far as I know, the offenders are the Lan Yu family of the Duke of Liangguo and the family of Li Shanchang, the Duke of Xuanguo. ”

"This is just what I learned from a field visit, and I'm not sure if these two are the only ones involved."

"At present, I haven't told anyone else about this matter, I just want the prince to advise them first to prevent big mistakes in the future."

Zhu Biao also sighed heavily after hearing this.

After all, the people's hearts are not enough to swallow the elephant, and the father has obviously given so many rewards to these two families, but they are still not satisfied, and they still want to seize the fields of ordinary farmers? !

It seems that it is time to knock them well.

The Lan family and the Li family have a close relationship with the crown prince Zhu Biao.

Liangguo Gong Lanyu is the uncle of Zhu Biao's deceased original partner Chang, and he has had a close relationship with Zhu Biao since he was a child, and he can be said to be a hardcore princeling.

Lan Yu is unruly and unruly on weekdays, so only Zhu Biao will obey him unconditionally.

And Xuanguo Gong Li Shanchang is also Zhu Biao's enlightenment teacher.

In ancient times, he was a teacher for one day and a father for life, and the relationship between him and Zhu Biao naturally did not need to be said.

In public and private, the prince doesn't want the Lan family and the Li family to have an accident, and he still has to save it if he can save it.

After all, knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and it is very good.

Zhu Zhu fixed his mind and bowed to Hu Changan: "Hu Aiqing, thanks to you this time!" I'm going to warn them to prevent them from doing anything wrong! ”

"How to implement it, please Hu Aiqing, please pay more attention."

In the face of Zhu Biao's thanks, Hu Changan didn't even dare to say it.

After discussing the matter, Hu Changan walked out of the East Palace.

Next, it's time to wait for news.

Anyway, without the approval of these two family members, Hu Changan would not have been able to persuade the villagers of Lishui County to implement the Lijia system according to the government's orders.

Everything, still have to wait for the results in a few days.
