Now that he was ready to give it a try, Wang Yue certainly did not refuse, but he felt that it was still a bit unreliable. He looked at Li Chuan who was full of expectations and said tentatively, "I know the reason why you want me to be your brother-in-law, that is.
It's just to let your sister go back and give an explanation to the emperor.
After all, Rong'er is my disciple, I can promise you, just do official things."
Li Chuan didn't expect that Wang Yue would understand his true thoughts at once. He knew that smart people can no longer pretend to be stupid, otherwise they would become fools.
But he felt that his sister really liked Wang Yue, so he said seriously, "Brother-in-law, I have a plan, but it is true that my sister likes you, but I don't know how much she likes you."
Wang Yue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This man even called him brother-in-law. He waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and go back with your sister. She brought so many sweet potatoes and potatoes this time. It will not be so easy for those who are not knowledgeable."
Believe it.”
Li Chuan didn't care after hearing this. He even said with some pride, "I have made it known before I came back. As long as anyone comes to Rongcheng through businessmen, they will know that these two crops are high-yielding.
I believe that even if there is no promotion from the court, ordinary people will be able to cultivate it themselves. After all, this thing does not occupy fertile land at all, so it does not matter if the court ministers do not believe it."
Wang Yue looked at Li Chuan's proud look and shook his head helplessly. This kid was thoughtful, but he still thought too simply.
In the long run, it will naturally be gradually promoted. After all, people want to have enough to eat, and of course they don’t mind more harvests.
However, if Li Rong wanted to gain a huge reputation in a short period of time, he had to get vigorous promotion from the court, so that everyone would understand that it was Li Rong who wanted them to do this, and it was Li Rong who made them eat well.
Only in this way can Li Rong die and become a Buddha, and then gain the power of faith to change her destiny.
Wang Yue would not tell Li Chuan these things. Seeing that Li Chuan didn't care, he said seriously, "The prince should not underestimate those aristocratic families. They can prevent the people from planting these high-yielding species and then secretly plant them themselves.
Used to make profits for themselves, this is their usual method of taking advantage of the people."
Li Chuan's expression changed after hearing Wang Yue's words, because what Wang Yue said was very reasonable. The aristocratic family relied on this method to make many people their slaves, and he felt that he had to help.
Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Since King Shanzhu is willing to marry my sister, why don't you write a letter proposing to marry me and I will take it back to show my father?"
Seeing how Li Chuan looked forward to marrying his sister, Wang Yue felt that it was good to have such a brother-in-law. Maybe he could really use Li Chuan to complete all his tasks.
Thinking of this, Wang Yue wrote a letter, and Li Chuan couldn't wait to put it away after finishing his homework, and then called Li Rong to go with him.
Li Chuan knew that this was the first time that his sister had done this seriously, so he wanted to give her some support, so he was thinking about what to do on the way.
Li Rong saw that his brother was worried, so he asked about it, and then Li Chuan told Wang Yue's worries.
When Li Rong thought about this possibility, she was really worried at first, but after thinking about it for a moment, she immediately said nonchalantly, "The source of the goods is in our hands. If the family wants to buy it, they can only buy it through us, and this thing is extremely high-yield."
, if all the major families farmed together, the yield would be very terrifying.
At that time, they have hoarded so many sweet potatoes and potatoes that they won’t keep them all the time. They think they will sell them cheaply one day, so we don’t have to worry.”
What Li Rong hasn't said yet is that if that's the case, then her plan to gain fame quickly has failed. However, she is not in a hurry, everything can happen slowly!
Li Chuan didn't know that his sister was worried, but he was really comforted by her, and he became happy on the way back.
…
As soon as the two returned to the palace, Emperor Li Ming knew about it and sent his personal eunuch to tell the two to go back to the palace.
Of course, the two of them didn't dare to delay, so they hurried over.
Li Rong saw that the eunuchs and maids were very quiet along the way, and she immediately understood that her father was probably very angry. She was not worried at all. After entering the hall, she immediately shouted excitedly before she even knelt down.
With a cry,
"Father, I am so happy, the auspiciousness comes from heaven!"
Li Ming, who was sitting on the throne, was about to get angry when he saw Li Chuan and Li Rong coming over, but was suddenly stunned by Li Rong's roar.
He didn't know what Li Rong's great joy was, but he still asked with some expectation, "Where does the joy come from?"
Li Rong quickly took out a stack of paper from her arms and handed it to Fulai who was standing aside. Then she said seriously, "This is the grain output of the fiefdom this year. Please take a look at it."
Li Ming didn't know what Li Rong was doing, but he was the emperor after all, so he could still control his emotions, so he calmly took the account from Fulai and began to look at it carefully.
.
At the beginning, the statistics were on this year's rice and wheat production. The data were very normal, and he felt there was nothing to praise.
Just looking further down, I suddenly found that the yields of two crops, each of which had a terrifying yield of more than 2,000 kilograms per mu, were a bit incredible.
You know, the city where Li Rong was sealed off was mostly mountainous or hilly. It was impossible to have any high-yielding crops there. What's more, he had never heard of these two crops.
He pointed to the content written on the white paper and asked seriously, "Rong'er, what are these potatoes and sweet potatoes? How can the yield per mu reach 2,000 kilograms?"
Li Rong knew that his father would ask, so he immediately said with a smile, "These two things are seeds brought by my master from overseas, but he only planted some in Jiulu Mountain for ornamental purposes. I went to my fief specially.
During the interview, I didn’t expect the yield to be so high.
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading! Erchen specially brought several carts of sweet potatoes and potatoes. The sweet potatoes are especially delicious when roasted. Of course, they can also be boiled. Potatoes can also be used for cooking. Father
The emperor can have a taste."
Li Ming knew in his heart that if these two things were really edible, and the yield per mu could reach 2,000 kilograms, then people would never starve to death in his country again.
At that time, the people of Daxia will remember the kindness of their royal family, and Daxia will naturally win the hearts of the people without the help of the aristocratic family.
So, Li Ming asked Fulai to follow Li Rong to get some sweet potatoes and potatoes, and then asked the imperial kitchen to boil them with water, and then brought them to the main hall.
However, although these things were boiled with water from the palace, Li Ming did not taste them after they were served. He was obviously still hesitant and did not quite believe in his son and daughter.
Because Li Rong lived for several more decades in the dream, she could understand at a glance what Li Ming was worried about. Although she was a little sad, she still said calmly, "My father may not eat it, so I will give it to my father."
Show me how to eat it."
As she said this, she picked up a sweet potato, gently tore off the outer skin, and then started to eat it happily.
Li Chuan was stunned for a while, and then he immediately reacted. He didn't expect that his father would be so guarded against them. He immediately took out a sweet potato from the plate angrily, without even peeling it off.
He took a big bite to relieve his depression.
Li Ming looked at the performance of his son and daughter. He didn't understand that his suspicions had been seen through by the two, and he looked a little embarrassed.
But the emperor was very thick-skinned and quickly covered it up by saying, "I don't need your help to try it. I also know how to eat it myself."
Although he said this, he moved very slowly. He waited until the two of them had swallowed the food for a while, then peeled off the skin, took a bite, and slowly began to eat.
Li Rong already knew what her father was like, so she didn't take it seriously, but Li Chuan was a little sad.
Li Chuan didn't understand. He didn't know when his father was particularly partial to his younger brother Li Cheng. Originally, he thought it was just his parents' ordinary partiality. Although he was very sad, he didn't take it seriously.
But it's different now, because Li Chuan understands that his father is not only partial, but has also begun to doubt him.
What on earth did he do to make his father treat him like this!
Li Chuan felt very sad. He felt that the position of the prince was the fault, so he had the urge to resign from the position of the prince.
Li Ming had no idea what his son was thinking. After eating the sweet potatoes, he found that they tasted very delicious and immediately said excitedly,
"Rong'er, with such delicious food and such a high yield, your teacher is really a genius!"
"Rong'er, tomorrow morning, please go to the court and tell me that we will promote the cultivation of these grains across the country as soon as possible so that no one in the country will go hungry."
Li Rong quickly bowed to Li Ming, and then said respectfully, "I obey, I will go and prepare now."
After Li Rong finished speaking, she exchanged a few words with her father, then said goodbye and left. Li Chuan originally wanted to leave, but thinking about his sister, he still stayed. He was obviously hesitant to speak.
There is something to say.
When Li Ming saw that Li Chuan hadn't left, he immediately put away his smile, frowned and asked, "Chuan'er, what do you want to do if you stay?"
Li Chuan took out the note written by Wang Yue from his pocket, and then said to Li Ming respectfully, "Father, this is a letter written by the headmaster of Jiulu Mountain Academy. He wants to ask to marry my sister!"
Li Ming is good at calculations. He looked at the letter and immediately figured it out on his own, thinking that this was right!
Wang Yue must have taken a liking to Li Rong, so he brought these precious crops from overseas, and then specially asked Li Rong to try planting them!
