Chapter 707: Johor Rice Trial Successfully Planted

"Your Majesty has arrived!" With Pound's sharp voice, the Yuanri Dynasty meeting officially began.

Under the leadership of Fang Xuanling, hundreds of officials entered the Taiji Palace, and the originally large and huge Taiji Hall was suddenly crowded, and there were officials standing inside and out.

"Master Su doesn't go to the front?" Merton pointed to the position ahead and said to Su Linon.

Su Lingnon's official position is the third grade, and standing next to Merton, who is from the sixth grade, is particularly conspicuous, and just now Su Lingnon still said that today's standing column is sorted according to the official position.

Su Lingnong smiled, like a simple old farmer and said: "The old man is in the court, it can be said that he is dispensable, there are not many old men, and there are many young old men, so what if you stand?" ”

The position of Dasi Nong has become extremely embarrassing after the reform of the past dynasties, and it is only a prominent position in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no real power, Su Lingnon is the only remaining fruit of the farmer's family, and his status in the court is transcendent, and no one cares where he stands.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty on the New Year!"

Under the leadership of Fang Xuanling, the ministers congratulated.

Li Shimin bowed slightly, and then Fang Xuanling took out the recital, quoted scriptures, praised Li Shimin's great achievements in the past year, and looked forward to the bright future of Zhenguan for nine years.

The ministers listened to it with fascination, but Morton was confused, he had also studied Confucianism, but when he heard these awkward words, he only knew half of them, and it was difficult for Fang Xuanling to read these tones smoothly.

Fortunately, Fang Xuanling ended quickly, and immediately afterward, officials from all over the country offered tribute.

"Jiannan Province sent ten jars of fine wine! …………”

"Gangnam Province sent a pearl! …………”

"Huainan Province ......"

The county guards of each province sent rich tributes, all of which were worth a lot of money.

"Lingnan Dao sent ten buckets of jade, ten buckets of beautiful jade, ten buckets of gemstones.................." When Feng Zhidai presented the tribute on behalf of Lingnan Dao, the entire court couldn't help but be in an uproar, among the ten Dao of the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that the Feng family of Lingnan Dao sent the most treasures.

"Your Majesty's change of land and return to the stream, I am afraid it scared the King of Lingnan, this time the Feng family has made a bloody investment." Su Linong gloated that he had a transcendent position in the court, but he saw it extremely accurately.

Since Merton presented the strategy of changing the land and returning to the stream, the imperial court changed the three bureaucratic tribes to the land and returned to the stream, adding three new counties to the Tang Dynasty.

However, the imperial court had already prepared, the army was mobilized again and again, and sent envoys to pacify, and the grace and power were used to stabilize the situation, and then the military parade showed invincible military might, which subdued the tribe of the wingmen.

Among the many people who change the land and return to the stream, the most worried is probably the Feng family, the Feng family has been in control of the Lingnan Road for several generations, if the Lingnan Road is reformed and returned, I am afraid that the first thing to move is his Feng family.

"I'm afraid the Feng family hates the kid to death." Merton smiled wryly.

Su Lingnong shook his head and said: "You are too careful, although Feng Zhidai is not a climate, but Feng Ang is a shrewd person, even if he does not change the land and return to the stream, can he Feng family still control Lingnan Dao forever." ”

The Feng family, the head snake of the land, I am afraid that it will only have a place when the dynasty changes, and now that the Tang Dynasty is alive, how can the court tolerate Lingnan Dao's long-term control in the hands of one family, and the Feng family will be transferred out of Lingnan Dao It may be a sooner or later end.

"Feng Aiqing has a heart!" Li Shimin couldn't help but smile with satisfaction when he heard this.

"Back to Your Majesty, this is just some mundane things, and my father sent another good news this time, I believe Your Majesty will be happy after hearing about it." Feng Zhidai bowed and said.

"Oh! Come on. Li Shimin looked at Feng Zhidai unexpectedly and said.

Feng Zhidai suddenly showed a hint of pride and said: "Johor rice has been planted in Lingnan for only a year, and now it has been harvested for three seasons, and the rice is as high as four quintals per season, and it is very easy to plant, waterlogging and drought tolerant. ”

"Three seasons a year, four quintals per quarter, isn't that a year a harvest of twelve quintals of rice?"

After Feng Zhidai finished speaking, the Manchu Dynasty was in an uproar, the harvest of twelve quintals a year, this is probably the most high-yield grain in Datang, once Johor rice is promoted in the south, I am afraid that Datang will no longer have to worry about food shortage.

"Really?" Li Shimin suddenly said.

Other gifts are no matter how valuable he will not take it to heart, but Johor rice makes him doubly happy, you must know that the general rice yield in Datang is only one or two quintals, most of them are two years and three seasons, suddenly Johor rice actually reached three seasons a year, even if Lingnan Road spares no expense to achieve four quintals of high yield, ordinary farmers should easily reach three quintals, so that there is a yield of nearly ten quintals per mu a year.

Feng Zhidai said respectfully: "Your Majesty, rest assured, how can the Feng family commit the crime of bullying the king." ”

Li Shimin nodded at this time, how can such things be hidden, the yield of rice in Johor is so high, it will definitely be promoted in the future, and it will not be concealed at all. The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but be happy in their hearts.

"Feng Aiqing has a heart, and the Johor rice trial was successful, and Feng Aiqing should be the first to take the lead." Li Shimin said excitedly.

"Your Majesty has won the award, this is what the Feng family should do." Feng Zhidai suddenly said with a look of surprise.

"The Feng family's position has been saved!" Seeing this, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty couldn't help but sigh and said.

For a long time, the court was dissatisfied with the Feng family's control of Lingnan Dao, and the advice to transfer the Feng family out of Lingnan Dao was often sent to Li Shimin's desk, and now that the Feng family has made such a great contribution, at least when Feng Ang is alive, the court will not move the Feng family.

Of course, this credit was not given by the Feng family, but stole the achievements of the Mo family, otherwise with this credit alone, the Feng family would definitely be able to go to the next level.

Immediately, many people cast their eyes vaguely at the rear of Merton, if there is no Feng family blocking the road and robbing, I am afraid that this credit will belong to the Mo family alone.

"I regret it!" Su Lingnon touched Merton and said.

Mo Dun smiled and said: "Johor rice is supposed to grow under the heat, even if Mo gets the rice seeds, he will eventually send them to Lingnan Road for trial planting, and Lord Su's trial planting is not very successful!" ”

Su Lingnong's face couldn't help but darken, he Sinong Temple also got a batch of Johor rice seeds, but the situation of the trial planting is not optimistic, only two crops a year, and the yield is less than three quintals, not to achieve the expected goal at all, he originally wanted to continue to improve, and then report to the imperial court, but did not expect that Lingnan Road was successful in the trial.

"It's just a matter of soil and water! After waiting for several generations of Johor rice, adapting to the water and soil of Datang will definitely be greatly improved, and if it is crossed with Datang late rice, it may be able to get better varieties again. Merton was not puzzled by the situation, but when new varieties were introduced, it would not be smooth sailing.

Su Lingnon nodded thoughtfully, and said in his heart: "Your Majesty, since Lingnan Road can grow Johor rice, and Johor is not too far from Lingnan, please send someone to Johor to get seeds, and I Datang will plant this rice one day earlier, and the people of the world will benefit one day sooner." ”

"That's a great thing!" Li Shimin happily agreed.

"Back to Your Majesty, there are many boats that often run on the sea in Lingnan, and there is no need for Your Majesty to make a big deal about this matter, Lingnan Road can naturally do it." Feng Zhidai immediately took the initiative to ask for help, there are many maritime merchants in Lingnan Province, and it is still very simple to transport back a batch of rice seeds from Johor, with the status of the Feng family, naturally there are many people who are willing to serve.

"Then I've been waiting for Feng Aiqing's good news for a long time!" Li Shimin nodded.

"I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!"

Feng Zhidai got the result he wanted, and he retreated contentedly.

"Today is the first day, presumably everyone wants to go home and reunite, I won't bother you to wait, scatter the dynasty!" Li Shimin waved his hand, and the Yuanri Dynasty Meeting officially ended.
