Chapter 95: The eldest girl and the second girl are going to be sold
Finally, the emperor asked, "Is there a mistake in the memorabilia presented?" ”
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Dezi took the fold to the county order.
Li Rong watched it again from beginning to end, and then returned the fold to Xiao Dezi.
"The Emperor Qiqi did not write it wrong"
The emperor sat up straight directly: "Oh, if it is not wrong, this is 6,000 catties, not 600 catties, what you wrote on this fold is the output of 20 acres of land on top of one acre."
The ministers below also exchanged ears on the street, whispering: "You really don't want to die, you dare to talk nonsense, if this is not true, won't you be beheaded in minutes?" ”
"This still needs to be confirmed, it must be false, if there are 6,000 pounds, I will cut off my head and use it as a stool for him to sit on."
I saw that the county order took a step forward and told all the fruits he saw and heard when he went to Taoliu Village and the fruits that his wife bought from Taoliu Village.
"The official sentence is true, and he is willing to guarantee it with his head."
As soon as these words came out, the court instantly quieted down, and this is okay.
Could it be true? Otherwise, who would take the lives of a family as a guarantee.
"The emperor also brought some fresh crops."
What was presented were fresh potatoes and sweet potatoes, and there were also a few recipes, which were specially written down by the county magistrate after learning about the practice of these things from the old Su family.
Xiao Dezi presented all the recipes that the man had taken out.
The man sitting on the dragon chair looked at Fang before ordering.
"Xiao Dezi instructed the imperial dining room to make all these things according to the recipe and present them, and all Aiqing tasted them."
Soon, in the hurry of the chefs, these delicacies were finally made.
The people in the Jinluan Hall only felt their saliva overflowing when they looked at the delicious food brought by the eunuchs.
It's really delicious, and when it is served, it has a seductive fragrance.
Xiao Dezi naturally tasted it first, and then tested the poison with a silver needle, so it was no problem, and then put it in front of the emperor.
The little eunuchs below also put the trays in their hands in front of the ministers standing at the front.
General Liu, who was at the front, was the first to pick up the roasted sweet sweet potato and taste it.
"Ha Suo" General Liu is a little too hot to eat, but the taste is really sweet.
After General Liu took the first bite, he turned his head and asked the eunuch, "Is there sugar in this thing?" ”
"There is no return to the general."
The emperor also tasted sweet potatoes on the upper seat, and naturally heard what the eunuch said that he did not put sugar.
"It's so sweet without sugar, it's very good."
The emperor was shocked in his heart, this taste is not only delicious, but the most important thing is that the county order said 6,000 catties, which is still hovering in his mind.
Next, I tasted the ingredient called potato, which was served with shredded potatoes with salt and boiled potatoes, cut them in half and sprinkled with a little chili powder.
Eating this boiled potato sprinkled with chili powder, I only felt that the red thing inside looked a little like a pepper.
"The peppers this time are really good, and the taste is many times better than the peppers of previous years."
Xiao Dezi whispered on the side, "Back to the emperor, this is not a pepper, it is a pepper brought by Li Rong, the county commander of Peach Blossom Town."
"Back to the emperor, this was brought by the lower officials from the farmer's family, and I heard that the seeds sold by the Hu people were also planted by that family."
In addition, after the county order was approved, the eunuch outside the door was allowed to bring in several large bags of melons.
"Your Majesty, this is also the melons and fruits grown by that farmer's family, and bring some of them, and please ask the emperor and everyone to enjoy their faces and taste them."
These adults in the court are not stupid, this thing has long been sold in the capital, and I heard that it is impossible to buy it even if you have money now.
If this thing can be divided into one or two, his wife will be happy.
Immediately after, these adults looked at the large bags of melons and fruits on the ground and began to rub their hands.
How could the emperor not know what these ministers were thinking? But how can you give them their wishes!
My concubine has long said that she wants to eat this thing, but she has not been able to buy it since then, and I heard that it is something from a relatively remote place.
Originally, I wanted to order someone to go over and see if there was any, and if so, I would buy them all, but I didn't think about it? When this drowsiness came, someone handed a pillow.
"Master Sima, you will take someone over to see the specific situation, and ask how the farmer grows these new foods.
In addition, let them continue to grow as many peppers as they can, and we will harvest them all."
From the time he had eaten the chili pepper in the potato just now, the emperor sighed that it was indeed many times better than the taste of the pepper in all aspects.
The people who waited for the agricultural division of this pepper had not studied how to grow it, so they bought it at a high price from the Hu people every year, but each time it became more and more expensive.
Ma Wei, who was waiting for the Agricultural Division, hurriedly stepped forward to receive the order, "The minister must humbly ask for advice and learn this planting technique completely."
Master Ma is not stupid, if such an important matter is done by himself, this promotion and fortune are just around the corner.
It's exciting to think about it, the yield per mu is 6,000 catties, which is such a terrifying number.
"I heard that Aiqing meant that the little girl from the farmer's family made it up, in this case, I always have to give someone a reward."
The emperor touched his chin and thought about it, this treasury is not full, but people have made such a great contribution, if he doesn't express it, it will really chill the people's hearts.
I am not afraid of being deceived, after all, this farmer must go down with the holy decree together, and I am not afraid of being deceived.
Thinking of this, he said directly to Xiao Dezi on the side: "Little Dezi's will."
"The daughter of the Su family in Taoliu Village, with her ingenuity to cultivate crops with a yield of 6,000 catties per mu for the dynasty, is hereby named the county lord and rewarded with one hundred taels of gold."
Although the county lord is just a man with no real power, his official position is on par with the county order, and he has a lot of status.
"During the reign of the county magistrate of Taohua Town, people were organized to go into the mountains to find water and repair ditches, which solved the water problem of the whole town.
Now he has traveled thousands of miles to see the new species to see the prefect of the special seal, and he will be rewarded with a hundred horses of silk and satin, and if there is such a discovery that benefits the country and the people in the future, he can go directly to see it. ”
"Thank you, Lord Longne".
……
Here, Su Muyao is still setting up a stall with her father in the town, and she has no idea that she is about to usher in a big official.
Just after everything was sold, when Old Man Su was driving the donkey cart to go home, he happened to see the man who had made trouble from home before, and the man and woman were pulling the two little girls to the slave market at this time.
Old man Su thought that the family had kidnapped two little girls and wanted to sell them, so he hurriedly took his three sons and Su Muyao in their arms and went over to intercept them.
Only Su Muyao recognized the two little girls at a glance, they should be her sisters.
As soon as I got closer, I heard the man yelling at the eldest girl among them: "Cheap hooves, hurry up for me, what's the use of you, even my brother can't take care of you, it's better to sell you for money." ”
The eldest girl pulled her sister and walked hard, she had no intention of interceding for herself.
Whether it is sold to others to be coolies, or to give people to the present, it is better to have food in the end than in the current family.
Erya was also a little prostrations at this time, and she hadn't eaten for three days.
