Chapter 284: The Mansion Will Fall
At the end of the Tang Dynasty, because there were more peasant uprisings, the powerful landlords built their granges into armed manors, but in the early Tang Dynasty, such things were still relatively rare, but they were also within the scope of the imperial court, after all, each household had its own private soldiers, but they were not allowed to enter Chang'an City, and could only have it outside.
"This isn't a Hongmen feast, is it?"
Cui Sanye jokingly said, no one's grange has been made like this, there are soldiers with weapons everywhere, which makes people feel scared.
"Cui Sanye, think about it carefully, a lively you, or you lying down, which one is good for me?"
After Li Xiang's words were finished, Cui Sanye laughed, although Li Xiang's words were a bit rough, but there was no problem in terms of reasoning, a living Cui Sanye could cooperate with Li Xiang, if he died, the paper would not be able to contain the fire, and the Cui family would know the news at that time, with their full state, even if Li Xiang now became the emperor's grandson, it would be impossible to completely settle the Cui family, and even let himself not get up.
Cui Yuncheng obviously felt that since Li Xiang became the emperor's grandson, his tone of voice was much tougher than before, it was still a gesture of negotiation before, but now it is a posture of command, could it be that this is the domineering of the emperor they lack?
In the past, when Li Xiang did not appear, the children of the Cui family always regarded themselves as the children of the first family, and even thought that they were much more noble than the children of the royal family, but at this moment, seeing Li Xiang standing next to him, Cui Yuncheng felt for the first time that we were inferior to them even in appearance.
After entering the Grange, the people of the Cui family were stunned by the scene in front of them, most of the people working here were slaves, and only a few of the guards were cleanly dressed.
"Is Your Highness here to show me these farmlands?"
The three members of the Cui family all expressed their incomprehension, if you take us to see this, I'm afraid there is no need for that, our Cui family has much more farmland than you.
"The Cui family is based on agriculture, if you cooperate with me this time, I will ensure that you will not have to worry about it."
Li Xiang turned around and said domineeringly, the expressions on the faces of these three people were very exciting, if Li Xiang said that he would deal with the Cui family from other aspects, then the Cui family might not be able to take it, for example, the matter of liquor, now Li Xiang has beaten him and can't raise his head, but if you want to say that the Cui family is not convinced at all in agriculture and food.
Cui Yunzhu was already laughing out loud, even in the face of the grandson of the Tang Emperor, he felt that this matter was a little too funny, not to mention that you used it in such a way, even your grandfather couldn't do it.
"Master Cui should think I'm telling a joke, but can I delay your efforts with a stick of incense? Let's see you again after a stick of incense. ”
Cui Sanye and Cui Yuncheng didn't laugh, because they knew Li Xiang's personality, this person is not a simple person, if he says that he wants to deal with you in this regard, then he must have found a way, but the Cui family occupies the largest arable land in the country, and the annual production of grain has reached almost 20% of Datang, how can you embarrass us on this? This is not liquor or other goods, this is food that needs to be grown.
"Your Highness, please."
Cui Sanye made a gesture of please, Li Xiang led everyone to the back of a house, where a pergola has been set up, and the wheat that is about to be harvested in the distance is also seen, everyone has seen these things, but they always feel different from their home, but they can't say what is different.
Suddenly, Cui Yuncheng seemed to understand, that is, these ears of wheat are too dense, and they grow too well, the high-level of the Cui family usually does not go to the ground, but Cui Yuncheng is different from these people, he knows that food is the foundation of the Cui family, so he has to go to the field twice a year.
High-yielding wheat ......
These four words appeared in Cui Yuncheng's heart, but he didn't want it to be true, if this was true, then the foundation of the Cui family might really be destroyed, and Li Xiang had a lot of land in his hands, once he distributed these seeds, then the chips in the Cui family's hands ......
"Your Highness has prepared tea, but I don't know what to show us?"
Cui Yunzhu said with some confusion, can you sit here and see how you destroy the foundation of my Cui family?
"Let's go."
Li Xiang didn't answer his question, but turned around and gave an order, and then everyone went down to cut the wheat, Cui Sanye was also a little puzzled, let me see how fast your people cut the wheat? As long as you don't go to the ground yourself, you probably can't understand these things.
Li Xiang saw that Cui Yuncheng's head was sweating, and the other two also saw it, could it be that he had already guessed it?
"Cloud City?"
Cui Sanye said a little strangely, they haven't understood anything since they entered the door, but Cui Yuncheng is a very cautious person, if he doesn't understand anything, how can he sweat?
Cui Yuncheng waved his hand, and did not have the kung fu to explain to Cui Sanye, because now he felt that the building was about to fall, the Cui family has existed for so many years, and there has never been a danger of being destroyed, even if it can't get the first place in the liquor industry, but at least it can still survive, and it won't have much impact on the Cui family, and now this matter is difficult to say.
"Dare to ask Your Highness, how much wheat can be produced per acre of land?"
As soon as Li Xiang heard this, he immediately knew that Cui Yuncheng must have understood, it seems that the next generation of the Cui family must be this person, although his body is broken because of Li Xiang, but with this head, if he doesn't send him up, he will really be sorry for himself.
Li Xiang did not answer, but gestured with his own hand for a figure-eight.
"Eight hundred pounds? Don't be kidding, even if it is a good land in Guanzhong, it is at most three hundred and fifty catties per acre, if it can be higher than this, then I will eat these wheat raw. ”
Cui Yunzhu said disdainfully, since he was born, he has never heard of wheat with a yield of 800 catties per mu, and 350 catties is already the top, and in many places it is not even 300 catties.
Cui Sanye is the old man of the Cui family, and suddenly he seemed to understand something, and then looked at the wheat field in the distance in surprise, the whole person opened his mouth, pointed his finger at the wheat field in the distance, but he couldn't make a sound in his mouth, this should be eight hundred catties can't be stopped, right? How much production is this?
