Chapter 681: Rumors, Verified by the Ministers
Time flies, everything seems like yesterday.
Wu Shi Tong didn't think much about the butler sent by Shu Mansion, thinking that it was because of the Emperor.
After all, Samurai Tong was not familiar with many people in the first place, and there were not many people who were familiar with him at the beginning.
After I got sick, there were so many fewer people who came to visit than I expected.
It was for this reason that Wu Shi Tong guessed that it might be this reason, after all, An Xuangong would not intervene in the dispute.
It's a pity that if the samurai is more suspicious, then maybe he can find out some clues.
Soon it will be another season of potato production, and you need to know that Li Shimin is after retrieving potatoes from Shu'an.
But send people to plant, and also send people to guard it, just to prevent the last accident.
There were even many acres of land in the royal farms, just to grow these potatoes.
And on the day of maturity, the emperor also invited his courtiers to the royal farm.
"Is this a potato?"
"It doesn't seem like there's anything out of the ordinary."
"Is the yield really that much?"
......
Many ministers were discussing, and there was a hint of curiosity on their faces.
Although His Majesty has talked about the characteristics of potatoes and so on, hearing is false, seeing is believing.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, everyone thought it was a little unlikely, after all, it had been so many years.
Why no one has found this thing, it is precisely for this reason that they are now curious.
Fortunately, Li Shimin didn't care about the thoughts of these ministers, and directly took over a shovel, and didn't care about the eyes of the surrounding ministers.
Then he went straight into the field, and the others were too late to stop it.
And looking at so many shovels next to him, some of the ministers around him seemed to have some understanding.
That is, His Majesty was obviously prepared, and people like Eldest Sun Wuji and Du Ruhui also did not hesitate.
"How is the yield of potatoes, it is better to verify it with you Aiqing and me to see if it is a divine object."
After Li Shimin looked at the eldest grandson Wuji and the others with appreciation, he couldn't help but say out loud, this time he wanted to convince the ministers.
Although the price of rice has fallen a lot, there have been some rumors since then.
For example, potatoes are actually exaggerated, and the actual yield is not that much.
The price of rice has also risen slightly, which can be said to make this emperor dissatisfied.
Although I also know that some families may not give up on playing tricks, and it is just in time for the potato planting period.
Even Li Shimin was powerless to refute these rumors, but fortunately, now he finally waited for the potatoes to ripen.
It can be said that Li Shimin had a premeditated plan, that is, he planned to use the hands of the ministers to publicize the potatoes.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After this emperor spoke out, no one came out stupidly and said that it was impossible.
After all, this is also an experience of people's lives, whether for reasons or otherwise, this one is not wrong.
On the other hand, if they stop His Majesty, then they may do evil to His Majesty.
Among them, the first to do it were naturally those generals, and you must know that many generals are from ordinary people.
It's just that because of the troubled times, he has completed his own transformation, but the memory of doing farm work when he was a child is still deep.
Naturally, there will be no hesitation, not to mention that the battlefield is also not so particular.
After that, it was the turn of some Wenchen, and there was some reluctance on their faces to go down to the field.
"So many potatoes?!"
When the first potato plant came out of the ground, all the ministers had a look of shock on their faces.
It's about the same as when Li Shimin first learned about potatoes.
Next, these ministers worked even harder, although there were many acres of potatoes, but they still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of these ministers.
And the farm is only part of it, and some of it is planted elsewhere.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
"Congratulations to Datang for having this artifact!"
.....
And after that, it was naturally a burst of congratulations, and this time, it was more sincere.
Especially for many people, they are very excited, such as these generals.
Most of them are from poor backgrounds, and they understand the meaning of this potato better, and this is only one aspect.
On the other hand, the soldiers can be fed, and in the past, only a few elite troops could be fed every day.
Or wait until the time of war, but most soldiers are usually only seven points full.
Now that we have potatoes, these soldiers can eat enough every day, and they can train even more effectively.
No matter which aspect it is, it is enough to make these generals happy, after all, most of these generals have nothing to do with the family.
Naturally, it is impossible to be troubled because of the price of rice, on the contrary, Wenchen's words, some people are still bitter in their hearts.
However, the eldest grandson Wuji was a little lucky, since he withdrew from the ranks of rice merchants last time, he did not continue.
Now it seems that the choice was undoubtedly the right one, and even some wisdom.
The news about many ministers digging potatoes soon spread throughout Chang'an.
The potatoes that once caused a storm in the whole world have once again attracted the attention of many people.
"Potatoes are really that much produced."
"There will be no mistake in witnessing the many ministers of the DPRK and China together."
"I don't know when His Majesty will be able to popularize potatoes!"
.......
Once again, there was a lot of discussion, but many people still paid attention to the point.
These people, in particular, are more eager about when potatoes will be planted.
Originally, Li Shimin had planned to let the people start planting this year, but the number of seeds was insufficient.
Even Li Shimin couldn't do anything about it, and this emperor finally set his sights on Yafu.
"If I remember that there is no mistake, my father should have a lot of potatoes."
Li Shimin couldn't help but think silently, and there were obviously some thoughts in his words.
Speaking of which, I haven't talked to this father for a long time, and the last time I followed my father, I didn't say much.
Coupled with the matter of potatoes, Li Shimin didn't care about anything.
After thinking of this, he couldn't stop Li Shimin's mood of wanting to go to the academy.
"Out of the palace!"
Without hesitation, Li Shimin said directly, of course, he did not forget to change into civilian clothes.
You must know that this emperor has been out of the palace many times, and he is already familiar with casual clothes.
But it's been a long time since I've been out of Chang'an City, after all, as Li Shimin gradually grows up, such things are rarely done.
Especially every time you go out of Chang'an, there is still a certain risk, although this matter has not happened yet, but you must be prepared.
Every time I go out of Chang'an, Baiqi is very busy, because it is necessary to ensure safety.
