The magnificent government office fell into a brief silence following the astonishing words. Fang Tongzhi and several officials around him looked at each other, and then they looked at the crops in the hands of the prefect, as well as the yellow particles and other seeds in the wooden boxes.

Lu Zhihang Yun Fengqing's indifferent words would sound like nonsense to others. Even the Yan State, which had been prosperous for nearly a hundred years, often suffered from starvation due to natural disasters. Countless dynasty changes were related to food problems, and countless crops were cultivated.

No one who specializes in agriculture dares to lie.

"That is indeed a priceless treasure." Fang Tongzhi suppressed the speechlessness in his heart and complimented his boss with a smile.

Lu Zhihang glanced sideways at Fang Tongzhi, whose smile was obviously not reaching his eyes. Don't you know what the other person was thinking? He sat quietly on the main seat in a loose robe. After carefully checking that the seeds were all right, he breathed a sigh of relief and opened the wood.

I read the letter that came with the box.

After reading this, I found out that the seeds were obtained from a large island. The big ship of Dingxin Shipyard sailed in the sea for several months, going around and around for supplies, and finally unexpectedly found the place called Liang.

The seeds were obtained in exchange for seeds from the islands of China, and these crops were also exchanged by Liang people and other overseas cargo ships. We have to trace where the crops came from, but they have not yet been found.

The people at Dingxin Shipyard remembered what Lu Zhihang had told them, and after finding crops that were most likely potatoes, corn, etc., they sent people to send the seeds back, but they continued sailing, and their whereabouts are still unknown.

One copy of the exploration chart was sent to the Jiangnan headquarters, and the other was in the hands of Lu Zhihang. I think it will not be long before Ruan Yangping will know what the world outside the land of Yan State is.

"It's not the same as the layout of the modern world." Lu Zhihang sighed. It's not a disappointment. Although it has the help of technology that far exceeds the times, it is not easy to sail around the world. It is worth celebrating that these seeds can be sent back.

It is debatable whether the crew members on the ship can come back or not. Each of them had to pay for their life before boarding the ship.

Judging from this chart, it can be concluded that the sea area around Yan State in the world is very different from the country where Lu Zhihang lived in his previous life. The unknown areas overseas are probably also very different, and this chart that was sent back became

The people of Yan State will be the key to open up the world in the future.

"Is there anyone in Yuyin City who is famous for being good at agriculture? You go and post a notice. If you can cultivate these seeds to produce abundant crops,

When the yield comes, he will be given the position of an official in charge of farming and mulberry farming." Lu Zhihang slowly got up from the expensive armchair and ordered Fang Tongzhi as calmly as possible.

Before his injury healed, he traveled between the two cities and got the important crops he had arranged for the drought many years ago. He couldn't even think about peace of mind. There was a faint pain of tearing in the wound. Lu Zhihang endured it and his face was calm.

I just assumed that the injury was caused by excessive movement.

Fang Tongzhi saw that he was really interested in these crops that he had never seen before. After thinking for a moment, he bowed and saluted: "I'll go and do it now."

Since the prefect can cure malaria, which has been a problem for ages, maybe this crop will also have miraculous effects. Yuyin City has the upper hand and the advantage, so failure is not a big deal. Why bother?

After spending two hours inquiring about the official affairs of Yuyin City in the government office, Lu Zhihang asked a dozen officials to leave first, as long as they finished the matter of cultivating crops.

Sweet potatoes and other crops in the modern world can produce thousands of pounds per mu, but it will definitely not be possible in places like Yan State where only excrement is used for fertilization. Lu Zhihang does know how to make chemical fertilizers, but the price paid is quite high in this backward era.

Big, his efforts were not proportional to his rewards, and his plan was killed in its infancy.

He didn't know anything about farming, so he had to ask his people to find capable people with such skills, tell them the habits of a few crops, and let them fiddle with the rest. They could only make simple improvements in chemical fertilizers, which were not as good as modern industrial power.

, but it’s still more effective than just using feces.

There must be brave men under heavy rewards. Following a notice from the government, all the people in Yuyin City who know something about agriculture are excited. They have been poor farmers for generations. If you are lucky enough to be favored by the prefect, why not change your lintel and become an official?

, has a meteoric rise?

Who wouldn't want to encounter such a huge good thing? I have been praising the magistrate for his wisdom for days.

This notice was circulated everywhere among the people in Yuyin City. When the government was screening and looking for people, Lu Zhihang was sitting alone in his bedroom. He took off his vermilion official robe, and the plain inner clothes were vaguely tight and different from his elegant appearance.

Texture, the slender fingertips hold the pen and leave ink marks on the letter paper.

"Chengxiu..." Lu Zhihang said these two words lingeringly on the tip of his tongue, his expression became a little gentler.

His upright and elegant handwriting was outlined on the paper stroke by stroke, from returning safely to Yuyin City to mentioning the crops brought back from overseas, talking about the benefits of several things. You must know that the prosperity of his previous life was inseparable from sweet potatoes.

Potatoes and other crops, and the drought in Yan State a few years later undoubtedly required the construction of reservoirs and the hoarding of food.

Lu Zhihang could not tell others about this natural disaster, but he could use the excuse of taking precautions to ask Yun Qi to take precautions. However, it had not yet been planted in the land of Yan State, so he made a conservative estimate and did not exaggerate too much.

, lest his disciples be disappointed.

After writing a lot of official things, I spent a lot of pen and ink talking about how much I miss you, and finally included a red bean produced in Yuyin City.

"Is this what falling in love is?" After writing the letter, Lu Zhihang realized that the corners of his mouth were sore at some point. He was probably not even aware of how bright his smile was when he wrote the letter, so he couldn't help but laugh.

He was in a good mood for a few days. He couldn't find any agricultural people who could catch Lu Zhihang's eyes, but he received a letter from Yun Qi. He opened the letter with great interest and took a look at it. From the situation in Beijing to the emperor's situation, it was not optimistic, and even mentioned that

Struggle for the throne.

"It's all business." Lu Zhihang's clear and still eyes showed a hint of disappointment, and he immediately wrote a reply.

The letters are all about personal affairs, not about missing me. They are used to accuse the lover of his heartlessness.

The two were separated in two places, but unlike modern times, they could only communicate through letters to comfort each other.

On the other hand, Yun Qi, who had just returned to the capital, hurriedly changed into a military uniform and rushed to the palace to meet the emperor. Yundan wanted to make him the prince, and because he was ill, he started to build momentum before Yun Qi returned to Yandu.

The vacant crown prince's position stirred up a storm, and the storm surged under the bright sunshine.

Countless overt and covert fights took place under the glorious and majestic imperial city, which intensified as the emperor's illness became more and more unbearable. Even King Yunxiu, who had always stayed in the simple world, got involved.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: King Chen prays that he has both virtue and talent. He will volunteer to go to war in times of national calamity. He is brave and resourceful and has made great military exploits. Although I am old, I am happy to have such a son. King Chen prays that he will be able to do so."

If he is able to inherit the great power, he will be established as the crown prince today and announced to China and foreign countries."

In the huge Jinluan Palace, the outstanding-looking Zhongshusheren read out loud the edict issued by the emperor, which brought an end to the dispute that had been entangled for several months. Even if Ning Guifei was unwilling to do so, she could allow Wang Yunxiu and Chen Wang to marry each other.

Both Yun Qi and Yun Qi had military power in their hands, so even if they wanted to, they couldn't raise an army to rebel.

Looking at the handsome man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and looking down at everyone in the court, Concubine Ning held her young son in her arms, her silver teeth almost ready to be chewed into pieces.

The successor of the future Emperor Yan was tentatively decided, and a letter was quickly sent from the capital to Yuyin City, thousands of miles away. Under the governance of the past few months, this formerly decadent border town was glowing with new glory, and exquisite porcelain was displayed all over the place.

Box after box was shipped to the port in Yuhe County, and the faces of the people on the road were full of smiles.

"It's planted!" The man in linen held the khaki oblate object as carefully as if he was holding a supreme treasure. He walked all the way to the government office without moving. The moment he saw Lu Zhihang,

I can no longer contain my joy.

"Seriously?" When Lu Zhihang heard the noise, he quickly put down the official document in his hand. When he looked up and saw the potatoes in the other person's hand, his pupils suddenly shrank.

Before the crops were planted, no one could guarantee whether there would be any accidents. When several months of hard work finally bore fruit, not only the man who was about to be promoted, but also the corners of Lu Zhihang's eyes and eyebrows were filled with smiles, and he immediately

He walked out of the table and asked in a deep voice: "How is the yield per mu?"

"Sir, these potatoes are amazing! Not only do they grow quickly, but the yield per acre is as much as 1,000 kilograms."

The sound as high as a bell resounded in the spacious government office. The officials who heard the news all looked up at them in surprise. Even the listless Fang Tongzhi staggered and almost embarrassed himself in front of everyone. He counted his fingers and forgot.

stand up.

What is the concept of yield per mu?

"Cough..." Lu Zhihang's chest suddenly bulged, the sweetness in his throat turned into blood and overflowed from his mouth, and his face became ferocious for a moment.

The scarlet blood mist sprayed on the potatoes, leaving mottled blood stains.

"Sir!" Several officials saw that something was wrong and rushed forward to support Lu Zhihang. Their cautious and suspicious eyes fell on the potato planter.

"Young, I definitely don't have any evil intentions towards the prefect!" The linen man waved his hands in horror.

Lu Zhihang's face was a little pale. He lowered his eyes and looked at his chest. He stroked it gently for a while. A slight tingling sensation kept coming. It had been more than two months since he was injured, and there was a vague feeling in his heart.

But this is not the time to examine these matters in detail.

Lu Zhihang broke away from the official's hands, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said warmly: "When I first heard that potatoes were produced per acre, I was overjoyed and it just caused an old illness. There is no need to worry."

"My lord, why don't you take a short rest and leave the potato and other crops matters to your subordinates?" Fang Tong suggested as he handed the tea to Lu Zhihang and asked him to rinse his mouth.

Hearing this, Lu Zhihang turned his face to look at Fang Tongzhi, who was smiling obsequiously. When he looked back, the man in sackcloth holding potatoes looked expectant. He was eager to know his health condition, and it was really inconvenient to stay here longer. Lu Zhihang's eyebrows stretched.

He chuckled and said, "Remember to fill up your official position."

"Officials never treat meritorious ministers unkindly." Fang Tongzhi grinned almost to the side of his face. The officials on the side were sweating coldly. When the man in linen clothes who was obsessed with agriculture heard about the reward, his eyes suddenly brightened.

"Thank you, Lord Magistrate. Thank you, Lord Magistrate!" The man in linen clothes couldn't help but knelt on the ground and knelt in obeisance, crying with joy.

The news that a poor farmer in Ningzhang County was appreciated by the Lord Zhifu for his hard work in agriculture spread throughout Yuyin City overnight. Among the few people selected by Lu Zhihang who were good at agriculture, this person was the only one to grow

The output was good, so he rewarded a small official as promised.

When people in Yuyin City heard about this kind of thing, it was like pie in the sky. Because that notice led the people in the city to study potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn and other crops. Nowadays, if you ask anyone on the street, they will know their habits clearly.

Very well, they can't compete with potatoes, but aren't there other two crops?

Doctor Wan had heard a little about the frenzy caused by these crops in Yuyin City in the past few months. His skinny hand trembled and he moved away from Lu Zhihang's pulse, and the thick book in his other hand fell down.

"How do you say that?" Lu Zhihang narrowed his eyes slightly, moved his gaze from the book to Dr. Wan's face, and asked with a slight look.

"How could the master suffer such severe losses? When I checked with the official a month ago, there was nothing serious except lack of Qi and blood, but I was overworked?" Dr. Wan's face was still happy when he came. After checking Lu Zhihang,

In such a situation, his face suddenly turned gray.

"Maybe it will come back with nourishment?" Lu Zhihang frowned and asked.

In addition to relying on the advancement of the times, his own medical skills are not as good as Dr. Wan's experience in terms of experience. When the injury was basically healed a month ago, Lu Zhihang personally diagnosed and treated it, and it was indeed as Dr. Wan said, so he relaxed. After all, he

Now that I am in my prime, there is no need to treat myself as fragile glass, just go as usual.

"It should be possible, but you have to take care of your own health and don't overwork yourself." Doctor Wan paced back and forth for a moment, thinking carefully, and then said cautiously, "If you don't take a good rest, I'm afraid you won't live for more than a year."

"...One year." Lu Zhihang whispered softly about the time limit given by Doctor Wan, his eyes flashing slightly.

Just because he remembered that Lu Zhi in the original work was also framed and killed by Zhang Chushang a year later.

Lu Zhihang's expression was gloomy and unclear. When Doctor Wan saw that he was silent, he thought he was still worried about his physical condition. He squatted down and picked up the thick book that he had just dropped, put it on the table, and said: "Sir, I have been blessed by preaching and benefiting from my work."
