"My lord, the war in Jiangling is in full swing right now, and General Guan and General Zhang have successfully helped Jiangdong take Jiangling."

Zhuge Liang was reporting the current situation of the war in Jingzhou for Liu Bei, and Zhao Yi ran in without waiting for the soldiers to report, carrying a few sweet potatoes and potatoes.

"Lord~Great joy, great joy~!"

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang turned their heads to look at Zhao Yi at the same time, and saw the latter running in with a few dirty lumps.

"Hongfei, what's the joy?"

Between Zhao Yi's repeated miraculous feats before, and now he is his son-in-law, Liu Bei can be said to love him so much that he does not need to be notified when he enters and exits the military tent, you must know that Liu Bei has this kind of privilege here, only Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang are three.

"The military advisor is also there?" Zhao Yi said and put the potatoes and sweet potatoes on the table, and said, "The great joy that Hongfei said is exactly this!" This thing is the fairy fruit that I brought down when I practiced immortal law in the mountains, and after being reminded by Wanyi, I planted some in the ground last year, but I didn't expect to get a bumper harvest this year! Lord, this thing is a fairy food that can be used as a staple food or as a vegetable~! If you plant well and take care of it, you will get two or three thousand catties per mu of land, that is, twenty or so will not be a problem! ”

"What?"

Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were still talking about the war in Jingzhou just now, and suddenly they were brought to the grain output by Zhao Yi, and what was the output he just said? Twenty acres of land? Did you wake up from a hangover last night and talk nonsense?

Seeing the expressions of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yi knew that they must have wanted to be crooked, so he pointed to the fruits that still had dirt.

"Really, last year I handed over some seeds to Bochang and asked him to approve twenty acres of land for experimental planting, and now the harvested grain is placed in the granary.

"Really?"

Now Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were both stunned, the way they looked at Zhao Yi was definitely not a joke, and there was no need for him to joke about this kind of thing.

Liu Bei took two quick steps, reached out and gently touched the potatoes covered with soil, and sighed: "Hongfei, this is the immortal food?" Each mu can produce more than 20 Hu, so how long does it take to mature? ”

Zhao Yidao: "This sweet potato generally matures once in five or six months, and the ripening time in summer will be shorter, while the potato ripening period only takes three or four months, they do not pick the soil, and the insect resistance is also very strong, which is definitely suitable for large-scale planting." ”

"What? Five or six months? Can it mature once in three or four months? This...... It's really something that the gods eat! ”

After learning about the yield per mu and the ripening cycle of this food, Liu Bei only felt that the potatoes he was holding in his hands seemed to have become as heavy as a thousand catties.

He's not stupid, and knowing what it means to have food like this means he's taken a big step closer to his dream! This will bring the population, the population can bring the source of soldiers, this Zhao Yi is really his lucky general, he was sent by God to wish himself the achievement of hegemony!

"Hongfei, you have made a great contribution this time! Strategist, I think this fairy food can be ordered to be planted by the whole army immediately! ”

Seeing that Liu Bei was impatient, Zhao Yi hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Lord, I have a better way." ”

"Hongfei, you say."

"I wonder if this is the case, the four counties of Jingnan now have a large area of vacant land, we can break it down into small pieces in the shape of a 'well', distribute it to the people, and provide them with free potato and sweet potato seeds to help them cultivate and work, and when the harvest comes, they will pay part of the grain as a tax according to the proportion, and they can leave a part of the grain for self-sufficiency.

In this way, not only can the wasteland of the four counties of Jingnan be utilized, but also the enthusiasm of the people can be mobilized to reduce the number of unemployed and idle people, and if we do well here and succeed, I believe that the people of other states and counties will also rush to hear the news, and then we Jingnan will absorb a large number of people, which will become our most valuable wealth. ”

After listening to Zhao Yi's opinion, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang in surprise, and the latter shook the goose feather fan and said: "Hehehe~~~ Lord, what did Liang tell you before?" Hongfei's talent has not yet been fully stimulated, this hand rents land to the people, replaces taxes with grain, and absorbs the population, Liang is ashamed~"

"Strategist, don't put a high hat on me, just say that our method is not feasible."

"It's feasible, of course it's feasible~! The methods provided by Hongfei can be counted in one fell swoop, and the merits are in the future, and more benefits will continue to emerge with the passage of time, worthy of being a fairy disciple, the specific operation of this matter will be handed over to me, lord, this matter should be arranged sooner rather than later, Liang will go down and arrange it. ”

"Okay, well, there is a labor division."

Zhuge Liang took the potatoes and sweet potatoes on the table, looking quite curious, Zhao Yi hurriedly added: "If the military advisor still has questions, you can find Ma Bochang, the boss of the Ma family, these are all grown by him, and he is more experienced." ”

"Okay."

After Zhuge Liang left, the old father-in-law and son-in-law were left in the room, and the address when they spoke instantly became much more cordial.

"Father, the child and Wanyi have prepared some meals at home tonight, and I want to invite my father to taste them together."

Liu Bei asked with a smile on his face: "But it was cooked with the immortal food just now?" ”

"That's right, my father is really an unpredictable prophet, hehe~"

"Okay, well, I will definitely arrive, my father is also curious about what this fairy food tastes like?"

Liu Bei patted Zhao Yi's shoulder, and seeing that the latter had no intention of leaving, he pulled him to sit beside him and asked in a low voice, "Hongfei still has something to say?" ”

Zhao Yi thought about it, and was thinking about what to say about Sun Shangxiang, when he heard a burst of hearty laughter coming from outside, and then the door was pushed open, and a big man with a black face and eyes broke straight in, but it was Zhang Fei's house.

"Big Brother ~ Big Brother ~! We're back~hahahaha~~! ”

Zhao Yi was about to speak, but was interrupted by Zhang Fei, so he could only give up first and get up with Liu Bei.

Guan Erye, who had a fluttering beard, followed behind.

"Second brother, third brother, you're back, it's great~ Why don't you let me know in advance, I'll pick you up."

"It's all my own brothers, what's there to pick up~~ What about the good wine I have here? After holding it back for so many days, I want to drink him tonight~! ”

Hearing Zhang Fei talk about his good wine, Zhao Yi coughed a few times and said, "Since the second master and the third master are back, Hongfei will not disturb the reunion of the three of your brothers first, and retire first." ”

"Hongfei, didn't you have something to say just now?"

"It's not a big deal, by the way, the second master, the third master, I made some fairy food for my father in the evening, since you two are back, let's come with me, third master, I have some wine brought down from the fairy mountain, drink it well tonight."

When Zhang Fei heard that it was the wine brought out by the immortals, his eyes flashed and said: "Good boy, I know that I have a good sip, no problem, we must be there tonight, hahahaha~!" ”

Out of Liu Bei's room, before Zhao Yi went far, he heard Zhang Fei's loud voice gushing inside to Liu Bei about how brave he was in this battle and how embarrassed he beat Cao Ren.

Zhao Yi shook his head and left Liu Bei's courtyard temporarily, but as soon as he walked out of the courtyard, he suddenly felt an inspiration, and turned his head sharply to look behind him, and there seemed to be a black shadow in the corner that flashed away.

"Who?"

Zhao Yi's eyes were cold, and a sand desert eagle had already appeared in his hand, chasing after the black shadow.

When he came to the place where the black shadow flashed, he saw no one, except a black cat standing on the wall and meowing to him.

"Is it a feral cat? I'm not old enough to dazzle...... Hell, is it the World Club or the Killing House? Or is it Zhou Yu? Isn't there too much of a force that I have invisibly offended? ”
