Chapter 497: Planting Rice on the Tree, Yongyan's Crazy Fantasy!

Where did Mr. Tian come from, so cruel and irritable?

Originally, he was strolling around during the lunch break of the imperial examination, although Yongya felt that the guard was a little exaggerated, but he didn't want to make a fuss, and he couldn't help but pause slightly when he heard the words, and just wanted to beckon the brother named Tian Jing to go back, but saw that the brother had already run to the side of the hill.

Not only that, but he stood still, looked back, and found that Yongya was standing in place, and immediately waved at him with great enthusiasm.

"What is Brother Yong still standing, come on, come on, come and see, look at what this is-make sure your trip is worthwhile......"

As he spoke, he shook his head excitedly and made a sound.

What is it that can make a farmer's son with a family background so rare?

Yongya couldn't help but be aroused by the other party's behavior.

He immediately followed.

By the time he arrived, the benevolent brother named Tian Jing had already gone under the fruit forest without hesitation. The forest seemed to have just been watered, and the ground was still a little damp, but as if he hadn't noticed, he stared intently at the fruit that had already borne fruit on the tree.

Somewhat oblivious muttering to himself.

“…… It can't be, it's impossible, how can it be ......"

Seeing his behavior, Yongya couldn't help but become more and more curious, looked at the ground in the forest that had not yet dried, and did not go in, but stood at the edge of the forest, where he carefully looked at the outermost pear trees.

After looking at it for a long time, I didn't feel anything unusual, so I couldn't help but ask for advice.

"Brother Tian, is there something wrong with this pear tree?"

"It's not right, it's wrong!"

Tian Jing got a little carried away and reached out to climb a branch full of pears.

"This fruit bears too much! Ordinary pear trees, how can they bear so many fruits, and, if you look at this pear, it's not right, this shell is shiny, and it looks like a pimple......"

Hearing Tian Jing say this, Yongya reacted and looked at it carefully, as if it was indeed a little different from the pear tree in his memory, but he didn't think there was anything particularly strange.

There are many trees in the world, and occasionally a few of them grow strangely, and it's not a big deal.

"Where in the world can there be such a strange pear tree......"

Tian Jing seemed to appreciate some peerless beauty, and his eyes were reluctant to move away for a moment.

"Look at this fruit tree, all of them are fruitful, if they can grow and mature, the yield is probably more than double that of ordinary pear trees, don't taste good or not, even if the taste is worse, it is enough to promote the world!"

Although the people of the Qin Dynasty did not have specialized fruit farmers, they did not plant fruit trees.

Generally, a few are planted in front and back of their own yards, and in the year of famine, they can satisfy hunger and hunger, and in good years, they can also be taken to the market to exchange some items needed for life with people.

Dignitaries and nobles are naturally indispensable to these melons and fruits of the four seasons to satisfy their appetites.

"The eaves behind the elm willow shade, in front of the Taoli Luo Hall."

It is this state of life that is reflected.

Although fruit trees are not like grains and are indispensable crops for the people, if the fruit trees at home can bear more, it is also a great event for ordinary people.

Tian Jing said, he actually stretched out his hand, looking at the posture, he actually wanted to take one off and taste it on the spot.

Although Yongya felt that Tian Jing's move was a bit rude, after all, it was just an ordinary fruit on the fruit tree in the mountains, and if he came forward to stop it, it would seem a little stingy.

Therefore, after hesitating, he still did not speak.

Tian Jing cleanly plucked a green pear, rubbed it on his chest skillfully, picked it up and stuffed it into his mouth, and then, just halfway through, he heard an extremely angry voice in the distance.

"Where did the thief come from, he dared to steal our pears!"

Tian Jing was startled by this loud shout, his hands trembled, and he almost stuffed the whole fruit in his hand into his mouth, and the posture looked quite weird.

Yongya couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Stealing a pear is nothing, but getting caught red-handed is another matter.

Stolen goods and seizures!

The pears that had not yet grown were still chewed in Tian Jing's mouth, and before he could swallow them, he was taken down on the spot by a group of young people wearing coarse cloth shirts with thick hands and feet.

"Looking at your appearance, it seems that you are still two scholars, it's not that you haven't heard anyone say that it is a thief to take it without telling you......"

Teeth: ......

With a confused look, he opened his mouth, but in the end he still didn't distinguish.

He was really embarrassed, although he had not picked the pears from the tree, but he and the brother Tian, who had just met, really stuffed the ungrown pears into their mouths.

Even if he said that it had nothing to do with him, what was the point.

"You planted this pear? What the hell is going on, and how do you do it? ”

Who knew that the inner struggle on his side was not over, Tian Jing over there had already spit out the dregs in his mouth, greeted him with excitement, and grabbed the wrist of the young man in front.

This scene directly confused the other party.

Ah, this-

Who the hell is arresting whom?

"How did you do that?"

Tian Jing's eyes were fanatical, and his eyes stared at the young man in front of him without blinking. Seeing that the young man, in the end, was a child of the Mo family who had traveled around with Tian Zheng, he quickly reacted, pulled and pulled, and held Tian Jing with his backhand.

"You don't have to care about this first, you dare to damage our test field, let's think about it first, how to explain it to our family!"

Tian Jing: ......

It wasn't until he was held back that he reacted, and it was a bit reckless to do it himself.

"Ah, you are the children of the Mo family? In Shimoda Jing, he is the son of the Tian family of Qi County, and his father Ken once studied under Mr. Chen Xiang......"

"Are you a child of the Tian family of Qi County?"

Hearing Tian Jing's explanation, the young man who held him down, his face softened slightly, and he slightly relaxed the strength in his hand, but he didn't let go of Tian Jing's figure.

"You are a farmer's child, you should know the truth of cherishing farmers and loving farmers, why rudely damage these fruits, do you know how much effort my family has poured into these fruit trees......

Although Tian Jing was not so uncomfortable, his body was still under control, so he could only half-hunch, twist his body, and continue to defend himself with some difficulty.

"It's not to be damaged, I'm just happy to see Hunting Xinxi, yes, it's to see Hunting Xinxi, I want to study and study, what the hell is going on with this pear tree-ah, by the way, that Brother Yong over there can testify for me......"

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yongya, who had been controlled by a group of people.

"That's right, Brother Yong......"

Teeth: ......

I don't know you!

But at this moment, he could only smile wryly and nodded.

The young man looked at the two of them with some suspicion, and saw that the two of them did not look like ordinary troublemakers, so he nodded slowly and let go of the arm that was pressing Tian Jing.

"Even so, it is also an extremely rude thing to damage other people's achievements without telling them, look at your clothes, you are also a scholar, don't do such a dishonorable thing in the future......"

Yongya was embarrassed and unstoppable, and wanted to explain that this matter had nothing to do with him, but he felt speechless. The point is, looking at this posture, if you force it to explain, it will be regarded as a quibble, and maybe there will be some other branches.

If the imperial examination is delayed because of this, it will really be a big joke in the world.

However, Na Tian Jing didn't take it seriously, and as soon as he regained his freedom, he reverted to his old ways and approached the young man with an enthusiastic face.

"This benevolent brother, dare to ask if your family is there, I don't know if the younger brother can have the honor to visit ......"

When the young man heard this, he shook his head and refused without hesitation.

"I'm sorry, our family really researches hybrid rice, and we have already explained it before, except for the emperor's grandson, I don't see any outsiders ......"

Tian Jing: ......

But he quickly grasped another key piece of information.

"Hybrid rice? Hybridization? ”

At this, he suddenly turned his head to look at the pear tree that had already borne fruit, and his eyes gradually showed an incredible look.

"Could it be that these pear trees are also hybrids?"

Although he didn't know what hybrid rice was, and he didn't know how to hybridize this rice, with the strange-looking pear tree in front of him, coupled with the word "hybrid" in the mouth of the Mo family disciple in front of him, he still grasped the key in an instant.

Yongya couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes, he had heard that donkeys and horses could be crossed before, and a kind of livestock called mules could be born, but he never thought that this rice and fruit could also be crossed.

How does this thing crossbreed?

Suddenly, he felt that he didn't have enough brains.

Several of the Mo family disciples who were originally surrounding them couldn't help but laugh dumbly when they heard this, and the young man who was in front couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

"It's not hybridization, it's grafting......"

"Grafting?"

Tian Jing stared at the Mo family disciple with fiery eyes, looking at the posture, Yongya was worried that this thing would pounce on it again regardless of it, fortunately, Tian Jing was rational enough this time, and there was no situation that Yongya was worried about.

"Dare to ask Brother Ren, what is grafting?"

Seeing that this peasant disciple who claimed to be the son of the Tian clan of Qi County was so eager to ask himself this question, he couldn't help but feel quite proud in his heart, and subconsciously straightened his waist.

"According to the emperor's grandson and our family, the branches of the fruit tree are grafted onto the same kind of fruit trees, and after careful cultivation, the fruits of these grafted branches will grow up, and the fruits will have the common advantages of both fruit trees......

Speaking of this, he pointed to the pear tree in front of him rather proudly.

"For example, the ones you see are all grafted, the first few are grafted to the ordinary pear branches, and the one on the left is the branches of the pear tree grafted to the peach tree......"

Tian Jing realized that if you look closely, the roots of the pear trees on the left are indeed slightly different from those here, and it looks like they are indeed peach trees!

He couldn't help but take a deep breath, turned his head, and subconsciously leaned under the pear trees.

He is a famous teacher, and his family history can even be traced back to Xu Xing, and he is quite talented in agriculture, so he has learned a little from the truth of these farming.

But what he sees today has completely subverted his understanding of agronomy.

Seeing this man named Tian Jing, with that shocked expression, several Mo family disciples couldn't say it in their hearts, and they completely forgot that when they first talked about grafting technology, they were even more unbearable.

"Actually, that's not all, see if you don't see it, our ......"

As he spoke, he crossed his waist with one hand and used the other hand to draw a circle towards the large fruit forest in front of him.

"This piece is our family's piece, with our transformed experimental fields, pear trees, peach trees, apricot trees, plum trees, and persimmon trees...... We have tried grafting all the categories we can find......"

That demeanor, like a victorious general, pointed out the thousands of troops and horses in front of him, and his expression was full of pride.

Tian Jing's eyes were enthusiastic when he heard this, and he looked left and right around the pear tree, and was amazed.

He never imagined that he could connect two kinds of trees together!

The point is that it actually bears fruit, and even bears more fruit trees than usual, and even the taste seems to be much better than the original. Although the pear was not yet ripe, he had studied it quite well, and even if it was unripe, he could roughly judge what kind of situation it was.

The pear I just tasted, when ripe, will definitely be more refreshing than ordinary pears.

"It's incredible—"

Tian Jing observed for a long time, and then he breathed a sigh and sighed sincerely.

"I can't imagine that your Mo family has unconsciously walked such a long distance and made such great achievements in farming, and it is ...... beyond our reach."

Who knows, as soon as he sighed sincerely, several Mo family disciples became a little uncomfortable.

The young Mo family disciple in front coughed dryly.

"Ahem-Brother Tian has an overreputation, in fact, we can do this because of the guidance of His Royal Highness the Imperial Grandson......"

When Tian Jing and Yongya heard this, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and subconsciously glanced at each other, and they both saw the incredible look in each other's eyes.

The emperor's grandson, who was clever and good at the art of a hundred crafts, could make many ingenious works and greatly improve the farming efficiency of the farmers.

At this moment, Tian Jing suddenly remembered another terrible thought.

He grabbed the wrist of the Mo family disciple a little forgetfully.

"This benevolent brother, the hybrid rice you just talked about, could it be that it also came from the guidance of the imperial grandson?"

The Mo family disciple nodded honestly.

"Yes, it's just the science of hybrid rice, it's too profound, far from being comparable to these grafting techniques, we have been taking us here to study and figure it out for a long time, and we haven't touched the way yet......"

Tian Jing was shocked by this novel technology and couldn't extricate himself, but Yongya suddenly thought of another incredible question.

"If the research of hybrid rice is successful, can it be like these pear trees?"

In his mind, he had already subconsciously appeared a scene full of heavy ears of rice on the trees all over the mountain! (End of chapter)
