This plant is a little familiar.

But what?

Chu Ze's mind quickly flashed with crops similar to it.

Thinking about it, Chu Ze was suddenly shocked in his heart.

He sat up jerked straight, his hands propped up on the table, and leaned forward, his chest almost touching the glass.

He squinted, staring at the plant.

Is it it?

It looks a little like that.

But the current plants, which are common to Chu Zeri, are still very different.

To be sure, you have to pick it up and look closely.

Chu Ze stood up with a "rub".

It startled everyone.

Lan Yu's hand shook even more, and most of the wine in the cup was spilled.

He raised his head, and Chu Ze had already quickly bypassed the table and walked towards the center of the hall.

His actions were so great that all those in the temple who had long eyes could see them.

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally saw it.

Seeing this, some ministers got up with a worried face, trying to accuse Chu Ze of not knowing the rules.

But just when he raised his hand, Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted.

Chu Ze's demeanor must have been discovered.

Zhu Yuanzhang followed Chu Ze's eyes and looked at the taro flower.

When this taro flower was sent, Zhang Yu said that this was an ornamental plant that he accidentally found in a big clan in the Wa Kingdom, and it was very hopeful.

He looked at it and felt that the flower still had some characteristics, so he brought it back.

Could it be that there is something unique about this taro flower?

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Ze.

I saw Chu Ze rushing to the front of the taro flower, stretched out his hand, grabbed the stem of the taro flower, and pulled it hard, pulling the whole taro flower out of the flower pot.

Everyone: "! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was also so shocked that he sat up straight.

Queen Ma stared at Chu Ze with a wrong eye.

The Zhu Biao brothers also subconsciously held their breath and waited below.

The wine in Lan Yu's hand was gone.

He even figured out where he would bury himself.

In front of the emperor, the flowers offered by his subordinates were uprooted, isn't this a provocation?

Don't look at the emperor's appearance that he is still full of trust in Chu Ze now, but Lan Yu dares to swear that once Zhu Yuanzhang finds an opportunity, he will definitely dispose of Chu Ze without hesitation.

At this point, Lan Yu couldn't stop it.

He only hoped that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to kill Chu Ze now.

Lan Yu swallowed hard, trembled his hands, and poured himself another glass of wine.

Li Xing was also stunned by Chu Ze's actions.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze at this moment.

But Chu Ze didn't realize it.

He picked up the taro flower, looked at the several eggs of different sizes falling under the flower stem, and immediately laughed out loud.

Everyone: "......"

"Your Majesty, look!" Chu Ze held the taro flower high and motioned for Zhu Yuanzhang to look at it.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the taro flower, and then looked at Chu Ze.

"See."

This kid has a good way of picking flowers, and the stems are almost all pulled out, and there is not much dirt on them.

He could even see the lumps falling from the stems.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Chu Ze: "What's wrong with this thing?" ”

"That's right, Chu Ze, tell me quickly, what's wrong with this taro flower?" Zhu Biao added.

Zhu Di's brothers all pricked up their ears, waiting for Chu Ze's explanation.

Queen Ma was also full of curiosity.

When Chu Ze heard the words "sweet potato flower", his expression was slightly stunned.

The name......

Give it a change.

"This thing, in our hometown, is called a potato, also called an artichoke, and a potato." Aren't they all better than taro flowers?

These Japanese people are not good to choose a name.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao glanced at each other.

They all know that when Chu Ze refers to his hometown, he refers to his era.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was obviously excited.

His eyes were staring at Chu Ze tightly, and his voice trembled a little: "What do you mean, can you eat this?" ”

Plants are the most likely to be eaten.

Chu Ze nodded.

He really wanted to give Zhu Yuanzhang a thumbs up.

Between the identity of the other party, Chu Ze pressed his thumb down.

"Exactly."

Zhu Biao suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief.

Zhu Di laughed.

Zhu Rong's eyes lit up.

Queen Ma asked, "How do you eat this?" ”

"In addition to eating it raw, you can eat it however you want." Chu Ze shook the potato.

He pointed to the fruit below and explained: "We eat it to eat it, and when we eat, the skin is peeled off, and it can be cut into slices, shreds, pieces, and even minced, which can be fried, fried, fried, and roasted, each of which has its own unique flavor, and even when necessary, it can be eaten as a staple food to replace the grain." ”

Speaking of this, Chu Ze looked at Zhu Yuanzhang directly.

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked when he heard this.

The four words "replacing food" are full of weight.

In the current Ming Dynasty, there are natural disasters all the time, and the grain crop species go down, and the sky doesn't know if it can be put away in the end.

What they want most now is food.

And this potato can actually replace grain.

This conclusion is enough to make everyone gasp.

The lively atmosphere just now fell silent again.

"So you mean you can grow it on a large scale across the country?" Zhu Biao took a deep breath before he dared to say his speculation.

Chu Ze grinned, raised his hand and gave Zhu Biao a thumbs up: "That's right." ”

In modern times, potatoes have been cultivated a lot.

Moreover, potatoes are not very selective about the growing environment, and they can be grown in many places across the country.

At that time, some experts said that potatoes can completely replace grain when necessary.

Now they are just short of food.

With potatoes, famine can be alleviated.

and the people will not go hungry every day.

After listening to this, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak for a long time.

He was quiet for a long time, and then suddenly fell back and leaned back in his chair.

Rao was like this, his eyes were still firmly fixed on the potatoes in Chu Ze's hands.

Suddenly, Zhu Yuanzhang let out a short laugh from his mouth.

Then, the laughter grew louder.

until it fills the entire hall.

"Great! With potatoes, then we will no longer lack food, and no one will be hungry. Hahahaha......"

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was smiling happily, Lan Yu knew that Chu Ze's danger was lifted.

He was the first to stand up and congratulate.

"Congratulations to the emperor, God bless us Daming."

The others then stood up and shouted, "God bless us Daming!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

Li Xing sat there, his face full of shock.

Chu Ze actually ...... It's okay?

And looking at this posture, he has to be rewarded.

I knew that this kid was favored before, but I didn't expect to be so favored.

But he also knows how important food is to a country.

If Chu Ze was under him, he would definitely hold him high.

Speaking of which, Li Xing's heart was quite sour.

He looked at the young man standing in the hall with a complicated expression.

Chu Ze withdrew his hand and smiled even more happily.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand to him and said, "Chu Ze, we will hand over this potato to you, whether our people in Daming can eat enough depends on you." By the way, Zhang Yu, is there still this potato country? "If there is, get it back for him.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhang Yu expectantly. (End of chapter)
