Chapter 148 Returning to Chang'an, Excited Li Er

Children's psychology is not as complicated as that of adults. As we chatted, we started talking about eating, drinking and having fun.

They worked until noon, but their words were deeply remembered by Li Chengqian.

If corn is really what they say, isn't it a sacred gift given to me by the Tang Dynasty?

In a few days, his uncle will take him back. When he goes back, he can bring some more corn for his father to take a good look at.

By then, if we can really obtain such benefits for the people of the Tang Dynasty, it will be a great achievement.

In the next two days, while studying step by step every day, I will also find other children to play with.

When he went to other people's homes, Li Chengqian received warm hospitality and ate the corn he longed for.

It was the first time I ate corn and it felt very delicious.

As they say, it's a rare treat.

Under the guise of bringing some back for his parents to taste, he got some, put them in his bag, and prepared to take them back to the palace. In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and Sun Wuji came to Zhaojiazhuang and took Li Chengqian back.

In addition to the notes from these days of study, I also carried a lot of corn in my bag.

"Uncle Zhao returns to Chang'an City this time. I don't know when he will come again. I will miss you!"

Sitting on the carriage, Li Chengqian hugged the corn in his bag tightly, eager to arrive in Chang'an immediately and give a detailed report to his father.

"Butler, go faster!"

"It's young master, please drive."

After leaving the court, Li Er returned to Tai Chi Hall and started to be busy again.

Changsun Wuji did not come to the court this morning. Li Er knew that he had gone to Zhaojiazhuang and the prince had picked him up!

Less than half a quarter of an hour after reviewing the memorial in Taiji Hall, I heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the hall.

Looking up, the prince had already rushed in, quickly came to him and saluted.

"My son has met my father and his majesty."

"Qian'er, you're back. How have you been studying with your Uncle Zhao these days in Zhaojiazhuang?"

"Father, in the past few days in Zhaojiazhuang, I have learned a lot from Uncle Zhao.

Not only did he learn arithmetic, but he also had a particularly important thing to report to his father.

I guarantee that my father will be very happy when he hears it!"

oh?

Hearing what the prince said, Li Er showed doubts.

Unexpectedly, the prince went to Zhaojiazhuang and learned the rhythm?

Looking at the meaning, do you still want to guess it yourself?

"Okay, Gan'er, in that case, as a father, let me guess what happened to you."

Li Er burst out laughing when he saw the bulging contents in the bag he was carrying.

"Qian'er, my father saw that your bag is bulging. It contains some strange and obscene skills, right?"

Li Er's speculation is not unreasonable.

After all, I went to Zhaojiazhuang, and every time I got there, the main items were Kit Kat items.

And each of those things is priceless.

So when the prince asked him this question, these were the first things he thought of.

"Qian'er, is what I said correct?"

However, Li Chengqian shook his head.

"Father, I did get something in Zhaojiazhuang, but it is not one of those playthings."

"What, not a plaything?"

This time Li Er showed doubts again.

"Okay, sir, if you want, you don't have to hide it from your father, and just tell him directly, what exactly did you get?"

"It's Father, Father, please look!"

After Li Er finished saying this, Li Chengqian took out the things, walked to the front and handed them to his father.

Li Er was puzzled when he saw the familiar thing in front of him. He seemed to have seen this thing somewhere before, but he really forgot where he had seen it!

"Father, this thing is called corn, and it comes from Zhaojiazhuang."

corn?

Oh, yes, yes, Li Er was awakened from his dream by the prince's reminder.

I suddenly remembered that this thing is called corn. I had eaten corn stewed with potatoes in Zhaojiazhuang before.

That time, it was the first time I ate that strange corn, one by one, and I even asked my wise brother what it was called.

He also casually mentioned corn. At that time, everyone had only seen it once or twice, and it was not convenient to ask.

Later, when all kinds of dishes were brought out in his Zhuangzi, Li Er assumed that these were the local specialties of his Zhuangzi.

There were no more inquiries until today, when I saw the prince bringing the corn back.

First, he looked shocked, and then, his expression became particularly dull!

"Qian'er, my father remembered it. This thing is indeed corn. I also ate it once when I was in Zhaojiazhuang.

The taste of this corn is pretty good.

Why did you bring back a few corns from that village to feed your father, the emperor and the queen?"

When Li Chengqian heard this, he looked embarrassed and looked up at his father uncertainly.

"Father, father, does it mean that father only knows that this thing is called corn and doesn't know anything else?"

Ah. Li Er was stunned and smiled awkwardly!

"Hahahaha, yes, my father only knew his name was Corn, but I didn't ask about other things.

Why are you asking about the corn? Are there any other mysteries?"

Li Chengqian beat his chest and his back, what a sin, Father, Father, you don't know such important news?

Father, if my son told you what happened next, I really don’t know how my father should reward him.

Li Chengqian's exaggerated expression made Li Er frown.

"Qian'er, if you have anything to say, it doesn't matter!"

"Father, do you know how much grain our Tang Dynasty produces per acre?"

"Of course my father knows these things. If the weather is smooth and the maximum yield per mu is 1 to 2 shi, why is there any problem?"

"Father, do you know how much corn this corn yields per acre?"

How many?

Li Chengqian stretched out his hands, held out 10 fingers, and said excitedly to his father.

"Father, the yield of this corn is 10 shi per mu. Its output is five times our usual grain output."

What?

Li Er, who was sitting above him, suddenly stood up, clenched his fists with both hands, stared at the prince, and asked again.

"Why,

Tell me again from the beginning, how much does this corn yield?"

"Father, the yield of this corn is 10 dan per mu!"
