Hearing Li Shimin's words, Li You was speechless for a moment!
[Is Li Er too greedy? He actually looks down on a certain potato that produces 1,500 kilograms?]
[Don’t bully me because I don’t understand. The main crop in Datang now is rice. Two to three hundred kilograms per acre is pretty good. My potatoes weigh one thousand five hundred kilograms! It’s at least five times the opposite. You and I Not enough?]
[Li Er, was your math taught by a physical education teacher? 】
Hearing Li You's internal complaints, Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, secretly thinking that this kid is really not easy to fool!
However, since Li Shimin had made up his mind, he must carry on to the end.
He continued to smile and said: "You'er, maybe my father didn't explain it clearly just now. Potatoes are really powerful, but just this kind is a bit monotonous. I see that there are many good things in your vegetable garden, such as tomatoes. You can tell me about cucumbers and so on."
"As long as you tell me what you want, my father will give you what you want!"
Seeing that Li You still didn't fall for the trick, Li Shimin continued to guide with a smile: "It is best to use crops with greater yields, such as those that can produce 10,000 kilograms per mu..."
???
!!!
This time, before Li Shimin could finish speaking, Li You directly moved two positions back and stared at Li Shimin in shock.
[What the hell? Isn’t the yield of ten thousand catties per mu just talking about sweet potatoes? 】
[How did Li Er know? It was as if he had a eye inserted into his own mind. He could see what he was thinking? 】
[I’ll go! This Li Er is definitely not as simple as I thought!]
[No, no, you must not tell Li Er the secret of sweet potatoes. If you just promote one potato, you will be exhausted by then. If you add another sweet potato, how can you survive? 】
Li You immediately made up his mind and would never let go.
Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this, thinking that he was about to be discovered peeking into the diary.
Fortunately, Li You didn't notice it in the end.
Li You tried his best to smile, "Father, you are joking, how can I have a crop yielding ten thousand kilograms per mu? This is impossible just thinking about it."
"I'm just an eight-year-old child. It took a lot of effort to discover such a magical thing as potatoes. No matter how much I try, it would be impossible."
"Let's see, when we promote potatoes, we will also promote peppers, tomatoes, and cucumbers. It is true that the people should be fed first. If the reform is too drastic, it will lead to bad things."
After speaking, Li You looked at Li Shimin with a firm face.
Li Shimin looked at Li You with a smile.
The father and son were like this, you looked at me and I looked at you, both sides were in a stalemate.
Ankang and Xiangcheng, who were standing next to them, saw this scene and looked at each other, both looking confused. They didn't understand the situation, and they didn't dare to speak easily.
There was a stalemate for a while.
Li Shimin showed a sad look on his face and said: "Speaking of the people of the Tang Dynasty, I feel sad again. By the end of the Sui Dynasty, heroes were vying for the throne, and the Central Plains was being fought every year. The people were homeless and could not survive. Now it is not easy. The world is settled, there are wastelands everywhere, but there are no extra people to cultivate them. If there are good farming tools, it will definitely make it much easier for the people!"
"Hey... I'm sorry for them!"
After finishing speaking, he glanced at the rotating waterwheel next to him and the curved shaft plow placed in the corner.
Li Shimin saw that Li You was not relenting on crops, so he planned to start from other aspects.
Li You saw Li Shimin's performance and sneered in his heart.
[My acting skills are good, and my vision is also good. I can actually see the importance of the waterwheel and the plow at a glance. That’s okay! Li Er!]
[Forget it, anyway, these agricultural tools are bound to be used to promote potatoes in the future, and they will have to be taken out sooner or later. It is not a loss to give them to Li Er now.]
[Hey, Li Er is so treacherous. Ankang, Xiangcheng has eaten here so many times without noticing anything. Li Er came here once and took away so many good things from me. 】
Thinking of this, Li You said helplessly: "Father, don't worry. When I was farming, I happened to invent some gadgets that should be able to help the people. When we promote potatoes this time, we will promote them together."
When Li Shimin saw Li You's promise, his face immediately lit up with joy, "Okay, then it's all your hard work!"
Except for not getting the sweet potatoes, the other goals were basically achieved. Li Er suddenly had a good appetite and continued to eat.
The meal lasted until late at night.
Wang Ling, who was guarding outside, thought something had happened to Li Shimin inside, so he broke in with the imperial guards, and the meal ended.
"Haha, thank you for your hospitality today, I'm very happy!"
Li Shimin was in high spirits on happy occasions and said goodbye to Li You with a big smile.
"By the way, don't forget, you must come to attend the morning pilgrimage tomorrow!"
"I know! You've said it no less than three or four times this night, and my ears are starting to feel numb." Li You rolled his eyes directly at Li Shimin.
[I am also very unlucky. Not only did Li Erbai eat and drink for free today, I also had potatoes, waterwheels, and plows taken away for free. The key is that I have to work as a coolie for Li Er. This is crazy! 】
[It’s really hard to endure the more you think about it, the more angry you become, and the more you think about it when you step back, the more you lose!]
[Li Er, get out of here quickly, I really don’t want to see you again. 】
Li Shimin ignored Li You's complaints, still had a smile on his face, and felt even more pleased in his heart.
Don't mention it, Youer's choice of words is really good, haha, the more I think about it, the angrier it becomes, the more I take a step back, the more I will lose, what a famous saying!
"Brother You, Ankang likes the food you cooked so much that it even made me stand alone." Princess Ankang said, pointing to her bulging belly.
Seeing Ankang's cute appearance, Li You felt relieved. He stretched out his hand to touch Ankang's little head and said, "As long as Ankang likes it, my brother will make hot pot for me next time."
"Hot pot? What is that?"
Princess Ankang asked with her eyes widened.
Even Li Shimin and Princess Xiangcheng looked at Li You curiously. After all, they had seen Li You's methods. It could be said that none of the things Li You took out were ordinary, so they were very curious.
"Hey, I'll find out when you come next time."
Li You smiled slightly and decided to give it a try. Especially when he saw Li Shimin's curious look on his face, he felt very satisfied.
[Haha, there is nothing in the world that cannot be solved with one hot pot meal. If there is, then two.]
[Li Er, seeing you like this, would also like to know what it is, hehe, I won’t tell you.]
This made Li Shimin even more curious. If it wasn't too late, otherwise he would have to sneak out the "hot pot".
"Haha, if hot pot is really made and my father comes to see it, You'er won't object, right?"
Hearing this, Li You immediately rolled his eyes and said with a professional smile: "My father is here, so I am naturally very happy."
In the eyes of others, it is definitely - "a loving father and a filial son"!
