Chapter 205: Sweet Potato
"Uh...... Is this food? Gao Dali was surprised.
Emperor Qianwu was also full of doubts: "I am rich in the world, I haven't eaten anything, why haven't I seen this thing?" What is this thing called? ”
Li Changfeng smiled: "This is called sweet potato." ”
"What a strange name, can you eat it?"
"Of course you can eat it...... I said Lao Gao, what are you still doing in a daze? Why don't you send someone to the imperial dining room? ”
Gao Dali didn't dare to call the shots and looked at Emperor Qianwu.
Emperor Qianwu waved his hand: "Send it, can my son still harm me?" ”
Gao Dali immediately beckoned, and a little eunuch walked over with small steps, and after explaining, the little eunuch picked up the bag and left, but was stopped by Li Changfeng.
"Who told you to take it all? Three, only three! Li Changfeng shouted.
Benjamin said there were still a few thousand in the cabin, but what if they broke down, were robbed, or were they gone for some other reason?
The next time I can eat sweet potatoes, I don't know when.
In his previous life, this thing was not worth anything at all, and he even used it to feed pigs in the countryside, but it was a rare thing in this world, and he was reluctant to give it all to Emperor Qianwu.
The little eunuch was startled, and carefully took out three sweet potatoes and took them away, Gao Dali was a little stunned, and Emperor Qianwu scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, isn't it something that grows in the soil, how many taels of silver can it be worth?" Look at your stingy look. ”
Li Changfeng raised his chin: "Father, when you understand the magic of this sweet potato, that is, let you take out the same weight of gold to exchange it with your son, you will feel that you have taken a big advantage." ”
"It's a joke!" Emperor Qianwu sneered, but he felt more and more that this sweet potato was not simple, and asked: "Then you can tell me, what is the difference between this sweet potato?" ”
Li Changfeng shook his head: "How boring is it to say it now?" Wait for a while when the sweet potatoes are ripe and taste the taste. ”
If ordinary people dared to come to this set, they would have been pulled out and cut a long time ago, this is Li Changfeng, Emperor Qianwu could only sigh helplessly.
"Stinky boy, such an adult, still like a child!"
Emperor Qianwu simply didn't approve the chapter, and chatted with Li Changfeng, and half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.
The little eunuch cautiously walked in with the steamed sweet potato, Gao Dali took out the silver needles and inserted them one by one to try them, and then nodded towards Emperor Qianwu.
"Hehe, one person, you're welcome!"
Li Changfeng took the biggest one with a swish, and quickly broke it open, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Redhearted!"
After speaking, he didn't care about the heat, so he quickly took a bite, chewed it carefully, his face was full of satisfaction and happiness, and he said vaguely: "That's the taste!" ”
Li Changfeng was a little excited.
It's been 10 years!
Finally got the sweet potato!
Li Changfeng knew how good he could eat, Emperor Qianwu knew better than anyone else, and when he saw him looking like this, he was also interested, so he picked up one and broke it and took a bite gently.
Suddenly, Emperor Qianwu's eyes lit up.
Then he took a big bite and ate it, with a look of satisfaction and happiness on his face.
Seeing that Emperor Qianwu also showed such an expression, Gao Dali couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and happened to be seen by Li Changfeng.
"I said Lao Gao, why don't you eat it?"
Gao Dali laughed dryly and said, "The old slave doesn't dare, it's better for Your Majesty and His Highness to eat." ”
Li Changfeng picked up the last one and stuffed it into Gao Dali's hand: "If you are told to eat, you will eat!" ”
Emperor Qianwu said vaguely while eating: "It's okay, let's eat, don't you see that there are more in the bag?" ”
Li Changfeng snorted and didn't say anything, and thanked him vigorously: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward." ”
Then I took a bite.
The next moment, Gao Dali's eyes also showed a happy and satisfied smile, and his eyes were shining.
It's so delicious!
He had never eaten such delicious food.
The three sweet potatoes are relatively large, and when Emperor Qianwu finishes eating, he is a little supportive, and he sits on the chair with an aftertaste.
"It's delicious, it's delicious."
Li Changfeng lay on the chair without any image and patted his belly, and laughed: "Of course." ”
Emperor Qianwu was unceremoniously: "Let's stay, I like it very much." ”
Li Changfeng gave him a blank look: "Stay?" Father, what do you want? I'm just you showing it to you and trying it. ”
Emperor Qianwu's face sank: "Stinky boy, are you resisting the decree and bullying the king, do you know?" ”
Li Changfeng snorted and said: "Sweet potato, the yield per mu is 1,200 catties." ”
Emperor Qianwu was stunned for a moment, then jumped up from the dragon chair, completely lost his calm bearing as an emperor, and exclaimed, "What did you say!?" ”
At present, whether it is rice in the south or wheat in the north, the yield per mu can only reach about 200 catties due to the influence of planting and irrigation technology and varieties, and the best fertile land is only close to 400 catties, which can be described as a very low mess.
Otherwise, there would not have been a grain shortage.
He has eaten sweet potatoes, which can almost be used as a staple food, and such a high yield has a far-reaching impact that is more significant than growing vegetables in winter.
As long as it spreads throughout the country, the famine will be completely eradicated, and the people will have enough to eat, who will commit rebellion?
Li Changfeng also knew that this matter was of great significance, sat up straight, and said: "1,200 catties is still a conservative estimate, even 1,500 catties or even 2,000 catties is not impossible, and sweet potatoes do not have as harsh soil requirements as rice and wheat, and they can be planted in most areas of Daqian." ”
Hearing Li Changfeng's words, Emperor Qianwu, who had always been in a state of mind that was not shocked, rolled up stormy waves at this moment, directly grabbed Li Changfeng's shoulder and asked sharply: "Changfeng, my son, you must be lying to me, right?!" ”
Emperor Qianwu couldn't believe it was true.
Li Changfeng broke free of Emperor Qianwu's hand with some disgust and said, "Didn't you believe it when Erchen said that he would grow vegetables in winter? The result? Besides, this thing was brought by the people of Fanbang, and those people are still eating and living at Erchen's place, if you don't believe it, you can call over and ask! ”
Emperor Qianwu looked at Li Changfeng carefully for a while, and then suddenly burst out laughing, and the voice came out of the imperial study, and the imperial forest army could hear it from a few hundred meters away.
"Haha......"
"Good! That's great! ”
"With sweet potatoes, why worry about the world?"
"I'm hopeful, I'm hopeful!"
Emperor Qianwu kept laughing, Li Changfeng understood his excitement, waited patiently, and when his voice lowered a lot, he spoke again: "This is brought by people from Fanbang who have sailed for more than half a year, and the number is very rare. ”
Emperor Qianwu laughed and said, "That's really not easy. ”
Li Changfeng knew that Emperor Qianwu had not yet realized the importance of these sweet potatoes in front of him, so he added.
"Father, you eat seeds!"
Emperor Qianwu was stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of pain.
"Seeds?! Stinky boy, why didn't you say it earlier? ”
As he spoke, he ran to the sweet potato bag and squatted down, complaining while cleaning up.
"I knew it was a seed, just steam one and taste it, it's a waste, it's a waste, it's a waste, stinky boy!"
Li Changfeng smiled: "Father, the son is asking you now, do you exchange it for the same amount of gold?" ”
