The old man was not satisfied with this paradise-like farm, but he only admired the hardworking farmers in the farm.

Zhang Baotian received a reward and became an official who directly became a farmer. The insurmountable gap of the family for generations was crossed. Other tenants, those who raised animals, those who planted medicinal materials on the mountain, and those who kept bees, as long as the old man thought it was good, they would either give it out with a sterling silver ingot or give it to the field with a wave of their hand.

The old man in the paddy fields spent most of the day and rested by the lotus pond that he looked very disliked. Li Jinglong was beside him, personally organizing the meal for the three Zhu family members.

Six jin of crispy fried crucian carp, Zhu Yunyu loved rice bread, sweet and sour radish skin, the old man liked white garlic, fried rooster with sweet sauce, and Lin Lin set up all kinds of things on the table.

Zhu Yunxi sat down next to the old man, Liujin sat in his ancestor's arms, holding the fried fish in his hand and creaked. The old man glanced at the lotus pond where the white geese were wandering leisurely, and took a bite of the cockscomb.

"Damn it, waste things, good land, more than one acre, you dug it as a pond!" The old man scolded Li Jinglong on the side while eating, "Can lotus be used as food? Do you not eat that duck and geese to keep breeding?"

"What you said is that I am forgetting my roots!" Li Jinglong carefully added wine to the old man next to him, and smiled, "I will let someone fill it out afterwards..."

"Fill it up? If you dig, you will fill it up again. Are you idle?" the old man said dissatisfied again.

Li Jinglong choked and looked at Zhu Yunxi slightly.

The latter took a bite of cold radish skin, which was slightly sour and sweet in the mouth, but it was a good dish to relieve heat and relieve greasiness. He smiled and said, "Grandpa Emperor, you have used this farm from now on. It doesn't look good, please give me instructions!"

"You know how to talk for him!" The old man pointed Li Jinglong with chopsticks, "The more you live, the more you circulate, and you don't have the cleverness of your childhood at all!" As he said that, he sighed again, "Good life will ruin people!"

"Old Ancestor!" At this time, the old man raised his hand and delivered a fried fish head to the old man's mouth.

Zhu Yunxiu frowned and scolded, "Irregular!"

The stinky brat ate the fish himself and gave the fish head to his ancestor?

"Shut up!" The old man also scolded Zhu Yunxi, and ate the fish head into his mouth with a smile, chewing it crisply. "We just love to eat this fish head. It smells fragrant and crispy when you take a bite!" As he said that, he broke a fish apart, gave it six pounds, and the fish head into his mouth.

Liujin stretched out his chubby little hand and helped the old man to pull down the residue on his beard.

Park Bucheng, who was on the other side, hurriedly handed him a hand towel and wanted to wipe his hands, but Liujin didn't even look at it. He wiped the old man's clothes casually, and then started eating.

"Old ancestor, my grandson doesn't want to stay in the palace anymore!" Liu Jin said with his head up.

The old man was drinking a little wine, "Where are you going if you are not in the palace?"

"Isn't you going to live in this village in the future?" Liujin asked in a blink of an eye, "Will Liujin live here with you in the future and accompany you every day?"

"Hahaha!" the old man laughed, "It's fake to accompany us, is it true that you want to mess around here?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunxiu looked at Liujin, "How did you know that your ancestor wants to live here?"

Liujin lowered his head and ate the fish, and said, "I heard that the ancestor was going to try to grow Hong potatoes here. The ancestor valued agriculture the most, so he naturally had to experience it himself!"

The old man laughed, lowered his head and kissed Liujin on the forehead, "Our good grandson, my brain is so good!"

Zhu Yunxiu also felt a little appropriate. The brat grew up unknowingly and could know what the adults were thinking.

After eating for a while, the old man put down his chopsticks after eating, and said to Li Jinglong, "Where did you attract the water from your lotus pond?"

Li Jinglong pointed to the mountain in the distance, "Behind the mountain is the Jinchuan River. When I was building a pond, I dug a canal. Just as the water level rose in spring, the water attracted it!"

"Hiss!" The old man glared again, "You are so fucking opening a canal for a pond!"

Li Jinglong hurriedly said, "The canal not only draws water, but also draws water into the rice fields every spring. The main reason is that I considered that for the convenience of irrigation, this pond was a matter of footsteps!"

"So, your pond is still alive. It's better to have a canal. It's not afraid of drought when you draw water!" The old man thought, "Call Xie Jinzhong over and go up the mountain with us to have a look!"

Zhu Yunxiu said, "Grandpa Emperor, I have been walking for a long time, let's take a break!"

"Can the aisle be tired?" the old man smiled and said, "Go up the mountain!"

The mountain next to the village is not high, and it is covered with traces of manual and deliberate care. It is lush and green like an ornamental garden. The group walked to the foot of the mountain, and occasionally hares ran around in the grass, and the domesticated deer in the forest looked around from afar.

"How much land does this farm have?" the old man asked.

Li Jinglong followed closely, "Return to the Emperor, there are 620 acres of paddy fields and dry fields! 48 forest land, and I have never calculated the land on the hillside."

The old man nodded, waved to Xie Jinzhong to come forward, and said, "Are you enough seeds to bring?"

"It should be enough!" Xie Jinzhong was unsure because he was not a full-time farmer.

"Enough means enough, what should you do? I don't know how many bowls of rice you can eat?" The old man pulled down his face.

Xie Jinzhong immediately fought two battles, "When the Supreme Emperor, the villain was asked to plant the natives under Luzon, and the villain was watching. The first time was to use sweet potatoes, not Hongtao as seeds, and then those natives used Hongtao's vines to plant them in the ground, which could also take root and sprout!"

The old man thought about it and suddenly whispered, "Tell us the truth, how much did you plant in Luzon?"

Xie Jinzhong was sweating coldly, "About five acres of land?" As he said, he said tremblingly, "The villain really can't remember it!"

It’s not that he can’t remember clearly. Luzon was still wild and tribal in this time. He, a Ming merchant who lived in foreign countries, occupied a large area with a group of sailors. Don’t look at him being in the Ming Dynasty, but in the manor there, he was like a local emperor.

"That is to say, those natives in the foreign countries may also have the seeds of the Hongshu?" the old man asked again.

"There are some in the villain's village, but there is absolutely nothing outside!" Xie Jinzhong said tremblingly, "In fact, the villain's village was exchanged for a chief with cotton cloth, and the villain and they were also guarding against each other!"

"The reason why villains have a farm in Luzon is because there is nothing there. My Ming Dynasty cotton and iron porcelain is comparable to gold in their place..."

Zhu Yunxiu looked at him thinking, countless Ming maritime merchants like Xie Jinzhong were set sail, and they went wherever they made money. Moreover, most of the sailors on the ship were outlaws, otherwise the chiefs of the surrounding foreign countries would not be shocked and would have taken action to snatch them long ago.

Think about history, before the Western ZMs came, they were all merchants from the Ming Dynasty who dominated the king, and even descendants of Chinese from several small countries. They also established dynasties according to the Chinese system, which shows the numerous maritime merchants in the Ming Dynasty.

These maritime merchants can use it to make them the vanguard of the country and cooperate with the navy to expand the Ming Dynasty's maritime boundary infinitely. Even if they give them some sweetness, it would be okay to promise a state official position. They have grown up overseas, but their roots are always in the Ming Dynasty.

Wherever they go, they can become the territory of the Ming Dynasty for proper reason.

Suddenly, the old man interrupted Zhu Yunxi's thoughts with one word.
