Chapter 26 This is Sheng'er protecting the Tang Dynasty!
The yield per mu of three thousand kilograms is more than ten times higher than ordinary grain.
Correspondingly, the price of these grains will undoubtedly drop to one-tenth of a percent.
That is...well, one penny and one tael.
The current price of food in the Tang Dynasty, one or two and five cents, was the product of the inflated prices caused by natural disasters and wealthy families hoarding food when there was no food left everywhere in the early days of peace.
If we compare it to normal grain prices, one penny of silver can buy two stones of potatoes, which is two to three hundred catties.
this???
Li Er directly:???
Fang Xuanling turned into a wooden man on the spot. His whole body and facial expression were completely frozen, and he did not move at all.
Those who don’t know may actually think it’s a wooden sculpture!
Empress Changsun looked at Li Er's dumbfounded expression and laughed out loud, "Why didn't your Majesty say anything? If you don't need this thing, then I will make some snacks and give them to the maids."
"...No, no, wait, stay under the knife... No, show me quickly!"
Li Er would not say anything if he was directly excited.
Queen Changsun pointed to the basket under the steps.
"Right in front of His Majesty."
"This is the auspicious thing that I want to present to Your Majesty, potatoes!"
Li Er and Fang Xuanling immediately turned their heads.
Not caring about the etiquette of monarchs and ministers...he ran all the way to the basket.
"This thing, this thing can really produce three thousand catties per mu? Queen, this matter is related to the life and death of the people in the world, you must not deceive me!"
"Your Majesty, when will my concubine not tell the truth when I am married to Your Majesty?"
"..."
Li Er burst into tears.
Fang Xuanling also burst into tears instantly.
This auspiciousness...
This auspiciousness...
The people of the world have been suffering for so long, and God finally opened his eyes!
…
A lot of excitement.
For a long time...
Li Er and Fang Xuanling just calmed down.
Empress Changsun also shed tears.
They gathered the people to fight the world. Naturally, they know how much suffering the people of China have suffered over the years.
But now we have this thing...
Fang Xuanling took a breath and said in a trembling voice, "The taste of this food is so sweet, but the yield per mu can reach three thousand catties. This is God's blessing to the Tang Dynasty. Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Li Er wiped his face.
So shocking.
Now all he can think about is potatoes.
"Queen, wait a minute, I want to ask some more questions. Isn't it true that the planting conditions for these potatoes are very harsh?"
Li Er was always worried, always feeling that there was no such good thing in the world.
If the yield of three thousand kilograms per mu can only be grown on the kind of fertile land that is only one in a thousand, then what use is it?
However, Empress Changsun's eyes were red and she smiled.
"Your Majesty, this product is drought-resistant and can be harvested even in a year of severe drought!"
"And these things are not stems and leaves, nor flowers and fruits, but are grown from the roots under the potato stalks. Even if locusts from all over the world come, they will not even think of eating a single cent of it."
"The method of planting is even simpler. You don't even need seeds. You just need to cut the potatoes into small pieces and bury them in the soil, and they will grow strong and become new potatoes."
Queen Changsun finished saying this.
Li Er and Fang Xuanling almost fainted.
What is the almanac today?
God opens his eyes?
This opens your eyes to the back of your head????
…
For half an hour, Li Er, Fang Xuanling, and even Empress Changsun were all immersed in an indescribable and extremely exciting emotion.
On the way, a maid came in to deliver tea, and they were all shocked - with such expressions, they thought the Queen was about to enter the cold palace!
After a long time, he finally calmed down.
Li Er's expression was simply terrifyingly serious.
"Fang Xuanling, accept the order."
"I'm here!"
Fang Xuanling is also extremely serious. He clearly knows what Li Er wants to do, and there is absolutely no room for any obstruction in this matter.
Even if a god descends to earth to block Li Er's path, Li Er will bring all the Xuanjia troops to fight.
"Recently, some refugees have come to Chang'an. It's very good!"
"Give me proper accommodation and distribute relief food first."
"In the future, this basket of potatoes will be used to help the victims reclaim wasteland for planting."
"I dare to issue a military order for Your Majesty. If this thing is not abundant, I am willing to lead the military to deal with it!"
Empress Changsun also took this matter very seriously and immediately made harsh words.
Li Er was a little moved, but he also knew that the queen had to advance and retreat at the same time as her political reputation.
"Okay! In this case, I will also issue a military order. If potatoes are not abundant, I am willing to go on a hunger strike for three days!"
Fang Xuanling was very wise and did not persuade Li Er.
He knew that Li Er had this character.
This plan of potato relief to the victims must be completed at all costs!
…
Decide on this matter.
Li Er was a little restless.
"Xuanling, how long does it take for these victims to arrive in Chang'an?"
"Your Majesty, there are about three days left, and the Fire Dragon Camp is already on the way to receive the escort."
"This...why are there still three days? Why are there still three days?"
Li Er was impatient. This was the first time in his many years of leading troops.
"Can this thing be stored?"
"Your Majesty, please be patient..."
Li Er walked anxiously back and forth in the Ganlu Hall, sighing one after another.
"It's not durable for storage. I'm afraid that once the crops are grown, people can only eat them as they grow. It's a bit difficult to use them to withstand natural disasters. But if it's stored for a long time, I'm afraid... there will be wealthy families hoarding them, and the price will be higher."
Go up, alas..."
"Your Majesty, please be at ease. This thing does not need to be dried. It can be eaten after being dug out from the ground and washed. It should be stored in a cool and ventilated place. It can be stored directly for about a year."
Li Er was stunned, "Exactly one year?"
"That's right. After one year, if the potatoes sprout, they will be poisonous at the time of sprouting and cannot be eaten anymore. But... there are always edible ones."
Li Eryi was very happy for a moment.
This potato is indeed... auspicious gift from heaven!
At this time, Fang Xuanling suddenly said, "Madam, this thing is so precious, but where did you find it? In the past... I have been to all over the world, but it seems that I have never heard of people eating potatoes."
"This thing..." Empress Changsun looked at Li Er, smiled and bowed, "This is what the master gave me."
Li Er's eyes widened suddenly.
It was Sheng'er... Sheng'er found this thing and gave it to me?
An idea suddenly came to mind.
This kid...
This child is the real auspicious person!!!
How could God bless the Tang Dynasty?
This is Sheng'er protecting the Tang Dynasty!
I see!
…
At the same time, Fang Xuanling was stunned.
real or fake.
What a joke.
Is it that expert again??
What kind of god is this expert?
He was simply confused.
This man demonstrated both the art of raising pigs and the art of iron smelting, both of which were miraculous arts.
At this moment, the sacred object potato is presented again...
etc.
I think I heard Lao Du say it.
A few days ago, Your Majesty encountered a Turkic traitor and was seriously injured and contracted typhoid fever.
This typhoid was cured by the medicine given by this master!
Could this man... be a true immortal descending to earth???
"Your Majesty, this master is so powerful, why not invite him to serve as an official in the court?"
