The territory of the Eastern Barbarians was the Northeast and part of North China in Jin Feng's previous life.
In Jin Feng's eyes, the Eastern Barbarians have always been a part of Chinese civilization, and the people of the Eastern Barbarians are also descendants of Yan and Huang.
Although the Secret Intelligence Department did not find out much information about the Eastern Barbarians, Jin Feng could imagine that the current Eastern Barbarians were probably not much stronger than the Central Plains and Jiangnan.
Maintaining the core technologies of manufacturing weapons and developing industry can prevent the enemy from growing, and it can also reduce our own casualties if we need to use force to conquer the Eastern Barbarians in the future.
In fact, for a qualified politician, technology such as drying kelp should not be available to Dongman.
Because if one more Eastern Barbarian people starve to death now, when a war breaks out later, there will be one less enemy on the battlefield.
This is how the capitalists in Europe treated China in previous lives.
When they discovered sweet potatoes and other high-yielding crops in the Americas, they never agreed to allow sweet potatoes to spread to our country, for fear that our people would be full.
There are two mainstream theories about how sweet potatoes were finally introduced to our country.
The first legend is that during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, a businessman named Chen Yi from Humen, Guangdong, took a merchant ship to Annan for business. The local chief entertained him with sweet potatoes.
Chen Yi ate the soft, glutinous and sweet sweet potatoes. After learning about them, he learned that sweet potatoes have extremely high yields and strong adaptability. They can be grown on wasteland and hillside. So he began to observe the planting methods of sweet potatoes. At the same time, after long-term planning, he hid the sweet potato seeds in Tonggu.
Brought it back.
The second theory is that a Fujian businessman named Chen Zhenlong went to Luzon (now the Philippines) to do business with his son Chen Jinglun. At that time, Luzon was a European colony, and they protected sweet potatoes extremely strictly. Once discovered,
Some people intend to take sweet potatoes or seeds to other places and kill them on the spot.
Chen Zhenlong, Chen Jinglun and his son weaved sweet potato vines into hemp ropes and smeared mud on the outside of the hemp ropes. They managed to escape inspection and brought the sweet potatoes back to China.
No matter which of the two methods is used, it shows what kind of risks the ancestors took when they brought sweet potatoes back to China!
In fact, Jin Feng knew in his heart that he should now learn from the European colonists and strictly prohibit the spread of kelp and related technologies.
Although this technology is very simple and cannot be banned for a long time, it can be banned for one day.
It is a pity that Jin Feng was not a colonizer, and the Eastern Barbarians were not aliens in Jin Feng's mind, but descendants of the Yan and Huang who had gone astray and had not yet awakened.
It was okay to let him kill the Eastern Barbarian nobles and powerful people, but Jin Feng couldn't do it to let him slaughter the Eastern Barbarian people.
If the Eastern barbarians were replaced by the Japanese pirates, Jin Feng might be able to do it.
It's a pity that the Eastern Barbarians are not Oriental. In his heart, Jin Feng even hopes that the technology related to kelp can be spread to the Eastern Barbarians as soon as possible so that the people of the Eastern Barbarians can survive longer.
This is also the reason why Jin Feng is unwilling to be the emperor and pays more and more attention to the Ninth Princess and the Privy Council.
He knew that he could not be a competent emperor and might even lead Dakang into the abyss.
"Sir, will I follow the previous plan?" Jiang Wenwen asked.
It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders. Although Jiang Wenwen could not understand Jin Feng's decision, Jin Feng had clearly issued the order, so Jiang Wenwen could only obey it.
"Go ahead," Jin Feng nodded in agreement.
"Yes!" Jiang Wenwen saluted Jin Feng, turned around and returned to the cafeteria.
"Master Imperial Master, please wait a moment, I will cook you some side dishes."
Knowing that Jin Feng likes to eat stir-fry, the cook Lao Xu also stood up and prepared to go back to stir-fry.
After being disturbed by this incident, how could Jin Feng still be interested in eating?
And he doesn't really want to meet Princess Lu Jie now.
He waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I'm not hungry anymore, you can get off work!"

After saying that, he ignored the cook's pleas to stay and left with the hammer and others.
After they were far away, Tie Zhui took two quick steps to catch up with Jin Feng and asked: "Sir, do you really not care about the craftsmen led by Princess Lu Jie?"
Iron Hammer is Jin Feng's personal guard, and he usually hears countless confidential information, but he always pretends to be deaf and mute and almost never expresses his opinions.
But today he couldn't bear it anymore.
"Don't worry, they can't learn the core skills. It doesn't matter if they learn the simple skills." Jin Feng said: "Besides, if you want to fish but can't even bear the bait, how can you fish?"
"Fishing?" Tie Zhui was stunned for a moment: "What do you want to catch, sir? Please tell me clearly!"
Of course he knew what Jin Feng meant by bait, but he didn't quite understand what the fish Jin Feng wanted to catch meant.
Jin Feng already regretted his rude words just now and revealed his strategic direction.
Words belong to you before they are spoken, and once they are spoken, there is no way to take them back.
Although Jin Feng believed that neither the cook nor Jiang Wenwen would take the initiative to spread his words, it was still a hidden danger.
What if they also spilled the beans?
Making such a mistake once was already serious, how could he make it a second time in such a short period of time?
So Jin Feng waved his hand and said: "It doesn't mean anything!"
After saying that, he stopped talking to the hammer.
Tie Zhui knew that Jin Feng was not trying to show off, but that he really was not prepared to answer, so he stopped pestering him and returned to the team, thinking silently.
On the other side, Jiang Wenwen also returned to the canteen.
The big pot rice served in the cafeteria at noon is fish stewed with kelp.
The female escort has already brought back the big pot of rice, and each person has a bowl. There is also a basket of mixed noodles and steamed buns placed in the middle of each table.
When Princess Lu Jie saw Jiang Wenwen come in with the cook, she stood up and wanted to say hello to the cook.
But Lao Xu ignored him and went directly into the kitchen.
When Bing'er saw this, she bit her lip angrily.
On the grassland, anyone who dared to shame Princess Lu Jie like this would probably have been chopped down and fed to the wolves.
But thinking of Princess Lu Jie's explanation, Bing'er could only hold back her anger.
"Why don't you eat?"
Jiang Wenwen walked to his seat and picked up the chopsticks carelessly.
After sitting down, he remembered that nobles had the habit of letting people test poison before eating, so he said with some displeasure: "Your Highness, don't worry, this is a big pot of rice. Even if Lao Xu hates you, he won't dare to poison you here."
"Miss Jiang, I don't have this intention."
Princess Lu Jie waved her hand and explained: "You are the host and we are the guests. How can we eat first if you haven't come back yet?"
Because of Lao Xu, Jiang Wenwen had a bad impression of Princess Lu Jie, but what Princess Lu Jie said made her feel a little embarrassed.
"Your Highness, you are too polite. We soldiers never pay attention to these things when eating. Whoever has time eats first. If we keep waiting like this, everyone will have nothing to do."
Jiang Wenwen paused his chopsticks on the table: "Everyone, use your chopsticks. Your Highness, don't you want to try kelp? This is fish porridge stewed with kelp."
