Chapter 1223

"Of course, although Liaodong is a bitter cold place, covered by ice and snow, for half a year, it is possible to grow rice there." Wang Yang raised his head, looked at the three big Song bigwigs in front of him, and said casually.

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but gasp, even the little pony father-in-law, like a bamboo rat that had been hit by a chrysanthemum and a firecracker, his eyes were round in an instant, and he didn't move.

"Hehehe......" After Zhang Qi came to his senses, he let out a burst of laughter that seemed perfunctory and mocking.

"You kid......" Su Dongpo raised his hand, his eyes were round, his beard was open, and he looked like Lao Tzu wanted to whip your ears.

And Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, couldn't help but have a trace of anger on his face. "Wang Wushan, can you be reliable?"

"Not to mention a bitter cold place like Liaodong, even if you cross the river, where do you think you can grow rice?" Isn't that hilarious? But the problem is that everyone is talking about serious topics, isn't it funny?

Wang Yang had a headache, it seemed that it was not that he was lonely and unheard, but that these people in power in the Great Song Dynasty really needed to make up for their geographical and biological knowledge.

"Your Majesty, Su Xiang, Zhang Xiang, please think about it calmly, how did the Wa Kingdom and Goryeo survive, they don't grow wheat and barley, their staple food is rice, that is, rice."

"Huh?!" Several big Song bigwigs were directly messy in the wind.

"Rice? Are you sure? Rice doesn't grow in such a bitter cold place, here, we don't have rice here, we can't carry it, why can they plant it there? Zhang Qi, the old driver, shouted out in a bit of anger.

Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, carefully looked at Wang Yang's very innocent expression, and was one hundred percent sure that Wang Yang did not mean to lie.

That is to say, Goryeo and Wa should indeed have rice as the staple food, but the rice-producing areas of the Great Song Dynasty were mainly concentrated in the area south of the Yellow River.

In some places, even south of the Yellow River, there is still no way to grow rice, but now, Wang Yang is here to tell everyone that rice can be grown in Liaodong.

Everyone knows that the yield of rice is much higher than that of wheat, and it is precisely because of this that the Great Song Dynasty attaches so much importance to the grain producing areas in the southern part of the Great Song Dynasty.

The yield of rice in one acre of paddy field is comparable to the income of several acres of dry land. If so, if Northern Liao learned of such news and began to grow such rice, wouldn't that mean that Northern Liao would be able to feed more troops?

The more he thought about it, the darker his face became, which was the reason why he was able to scare himself and scare himself.

And Zhang Qi and Su Dongpo were also aware of this problem, and their breathing began to become heavy.

Wang Yang saw the expressions of the three bigwigs, and naturally understood what they were thinking, so he quickly cleared his throat and said. "Your Majesty, the two prime ministers, the matter is not as serious as you think, because Beiliao is different from us after all.

Our Great Song Dynasty attaches great importance to farming, but we don't know, not to mention that even the Son of Heaven likes to stay in the camp all day long, and stay on the grassland for many months in adulthood? ”

"This is also ......" After hearing Wang Yang's words, everyone looked relieved but palpitating.

“…… I don't think it's a good thing for you kid to talk. However, after the general happiness of the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Su Dongpo, the old driver, smashed his mouth, squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Yang, who was snickering, not yin or yang.

"Su Xiang, Uncle Su, how can you think so, am I that kind of person?" Wang Yang hurriedly changed his face as quickly as possible, very upright and gentlemanly, righteous and stern.

Over there, Zhao Xu, the Son of Heaven, waved his hand. "It seems that not only Northern Liao, but even my Great Song Dynasty really have too little understanding of the surrounding Zhufan, and I haven't even noticed the problems under my nose, which is really ......."

"Death to the minister, it seems that there is still a lot of work in my Privy Council that has not been done properly." Zhang Qi, the old driver, could only be the first to bow to the ground and ask the Son of Heaven for his guilt.

"Okay, it doesn't have to be like this, it's not your fault, you have only taken over this privy council for more than a year, and now, the intelligence work of the surrounding countries has only just started for too long, but in the future, I don't want such a big loophole to appear again." After Zhao Xu, the son of heaven, helped Zhang Qi, a conscientious old driver, first appeased, and then beaten.

Zhang Kai naturally agreed without a mouth, gritted his teeth and secretly swore that after returning to the Yamen, he must let the officials of the Privy Council, large and small, see the anger of his dignified presiding officer of the Privy Council.

Not...... Shouldn't I also walk around with Wang Yang, a little bit of personal friendship, so that this kid shouldn't suddenly come out of tune and be criticized, right?

Wang Yang suddenly felt that Zhang Qi, the old driver, seemed to have something more looking at him, very weird, and very much, seeing Wang Daguan's goosebumps, it was not easy to adjust his mood and continue to explain patiently.

"You may not know that there are three huge plains in the land of Liaodong, and if each plain can be planted with rice, then it is definitely a huge granary, enough to feed nearly half of the population of the Great Song Dynasty. And that's just a benefit......"

"In addition, in the land of Liaodong, there are excellent quality iron ore, coal mines, as well as huge reserves of gold and copper mines, and their reserves are no less than the total amount of minerals currently proven in our Great Song Dynasty......"

Every time Wang Yang said a mineral, it would make the eyes of the few people present light up, especially when they heard about the gold mine and the copper mine, these three bigwigs almost forgot to breathe, and their eyes looked straight at Wang Yang, that posture was like a group of thugs facing a banker with a huge fortune and no power to tie the chicken.

The Northeast, that is, the land of Liaodong, has the largest plain in China with four distinct seasons. The main metal minerals are iron, manganese, copper, molybdenum, lead, zinc, gold and rare elements, etc., and the non-metallic minerals are coal, oil, oil shale, graphite, magnesite, dolomite, talc, asbestos, etc. These resources have an important place in the country.

Moreover, the grain output in eastern Liaoning accounts for one-fifth of the national output, and the iron ore reserves distributed in Anshan and Benxi account for about one-quarter of the country's total. In addition, the Songliao Plain is rich in oil resources, close to half of China's oil reserves in the 21st century.

What a bitter cold place this is, it is a huge, outrageously rich cornucopia, and it is virgin land that has not yet been mined.
