Chapter 406: When the potatoes are ripe

The carriage went "tick-tock" along the clean cement road to the Qi Palace. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the way, Xiao Ming and Fei Yue'er began to explain the difference between hot air balloons and hydrogen balloons, as well as cement and other things unique to Qingzhou.

Fei Yue'er is also a well-known talented woman in Chang'an, but when she encounters these scientific knowledge, she is immediately confused.

On the cement road, the carriage ran very fast, and after ten minutes they arrived at the palace, where Aster and Pothos cheered and got out of the carriage and directed the servants of the palace to carry the wedding gifts into the palace.

Knowing that Xiao Ming was coming back, the servants of the entire palace gathered, and Qian Dafu also came back from the mine to meet the princess who had entered the Qi Palace.

After getting out of the carriage, Xiao Ming took Fei Yue'er into the main hall.

After moving the things on the carriage, Qian Dafu led the servants of the palace to the main hall, and bowed with a smile, "See Your Highness, see the princess." ”

I had already experienced it on the dock just now, but at this time, Fei Yue'er was a little calmer, and said with the same smile: "No courtesy." ”

"Princess Xie." Qian Dafu and the others got up.

At this time, Fei Yue'er said: "In the future, I will serve His Highness with you, I hope you can work together to share trivial matters for Your Highness. ”

After that, Fei Yue'er gestured to Xiaohuan, and Xiaohuan immediately took out a small package, which was all fine silver.

Before leaving, Fiji gave her the money and asked him to give it to the people in the palace, so that they could have a good impression of her and serve her faithfully.

"Princess Xie." Xiaohuan took the broken silver and sent it over one by one, and many of the servants smiled.

Xiao Ming whispered to Fei Yue'er at this time: "You will buy people's hearts." ”

Fei Yue'er pursed her lips and smiled: "This is all taught by Daddy." ”

Xiaohuan sent out the broken silver, and Xiao Ming said loudly: "You have also taken this silver, and you must serve the princess with your heart in the future, if anyone has malice towards the princess, don't blame the king for being polite." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." The servants bowed and said.

Nodding, Xiao Ming asked everyone to retreat, leaving Qian Dafu alone, and said: "Princess, this is the money housekeeper, who has been serving in front of the mother concubine before, remember, he is the most trustworthy person in Qingzhou, and if he encounters a crisis, he is also the most reliable person." ”

"The concubine once told me, Steward Qian, I want you to help me more in the future." Fei Yue'er said softly.

Qian Dafu was a little excited, and he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, princess, as long as the princess gives an order, the old slave will definitely do his best, saddle before and after the horse." ”

Hearing this, Fei Yue'er laughed softly.

After seeing the servants of the palace, Xiao Ming led Fei Yue'er to the dormitory, which was where the two lived from now on.

Entering the dormitory, Fei Yue'er suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and walked around the dormitory like a child.

Seeing the full-length mirror in front of the dresser, she suddenly couldn't move, and couldn't help but look at herself in the mirror, this mirror was much bigger than the one Xiao Ming gave her.

After wandering in front of the mirror for a while, Fei Yue'er turned to the bed again, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Your Highness, what is this?" Fei Yue'er pointed to the spring cushion on the boat and said, compared to the ordinary wooden bed, Xiao Ming's boat at this time has something as big as the bed.

"This is a mattress, it is estimated that it was sent by the craftsman during the time when the king went to Chang'an." Xiao Ming said with a smile.

The ancient beds were all solid wood beds, which is good, but the bed board is not generally hard, so after the Wei family restaurant was equipped with a spring bed, he asked the craftsman to make a special mattress for him.

This mattress is supported by springs and filled with cotton, although it is not as elastic as a sponge, but it is also a high-end commodity in this era.

"Mattress?" Fei Yue'er stretched out her finger and pressed it, and it was bounced up again.

Xiao Ming said with a smile: "You sit on it and try it, this is very comfortable, this king is preparing to produce mattresses for the Chamber of Commerce to sell." ”

Fei Yue'er nodded, sat down on the mattress gently, and suddenly felt as if her body was sitting on water, and sat down, she was bounced up again, and for a while she grew her mouth in surprise.

"How? It's more comfortable than a plank bed, and we'll live on it from now on. Xiao Ming smiled evilly.

Fei Yue'er's face turned slightly red when she heard this.

Xiao Ming was about to tease Fei Yue'er again, when Aster walked in and said, "His Royal Highness Pang Changshi is here, saying that the potatoes are about to be harvested." ”

"Really?"

Xiao Ming summed it up, he came back in time, and now is the season for potato harvesting.

"Hahaha......" laughed three times, Xiao Ming's saliva was about to flow down, and his favorite fries would soon become a reality.

After laughing, he said to Fei Yue'er: "Princess, you are familiar with it here, and this king will come when he goes." ”

In Fei Yue'er's stunned eyes, Xiao Ming and Zi Wan walked towards the main hall.

Seeing Xiao Ming leaving, Fei Yue'er exhaled, suddenly smiled naughtily, and the whole person lay on the bed, her body kept rolling.

Holding the soft quilt, Fei Yue'er looked happy, "What a comfortable bed, this Qingzhou is really magical, and it is different from Chang'an everywhere." ”

In the main hall, Pang Yukun was waiting for Xiao Ming.

After a while, Xiao Ming arrived at the gate of the main hall and said to him, "Let's go, go directly to the slave plantation." ”

Pang Yukun smiled and kept up with Xiao Ming's footsteps.

He was also excited, this kind of thing that yielded twenty stones per mu in Xiao Ming's mouth didn't know if it could bring a miracle to Qingzhou.

Mounted on their horses, the two of them headed for the slave plantation, this time he came back basically for winter, it was another season of food scarcity, and with potatoes, the army and the academy could have one more dish.

In the plantation outside the city, Kui Wu was waiting for Pang Yukun to come, and at this time he had already gathered the slaves in the village.

Seeing Xiao Ming and Pang Yukun coming together, he immediately stepped forward and said courteously: "Kui Wu see His Royal Highness, Pang Changshi." ”

"No courtesy." Xiao Ming looked at the field, and there were raised ridges between the fields, and on the ridges were green low plants, which were the stems and leaves of potatoes.

The real potatoes are buried in the ridges.

"Your Highness, in the past few months, the little slaves have taken care of the slaves carefully, and His Highness said that this potato can yield a minimum of twenty stones per mu, and if it is taken care of, the production capacity per mu will reach forty stones, so we dare not slack off according to the manual given by His Highness." Kuigo's face flushed with excitement.

Xiao Ming once said that if the yield of potatoes per mu exceeded 30 stones, he would be relieved of his slave status and make him a real resident of Qingzhou.

"Well, it's a snail or a horse, and you have to pull it out and slip it." Xiao Ming looked at the boundless potatoes with an excited expression.

On the way here, Pang Yukun said that the cultivated seedlings had been planted with a total of 3,000 acres of land, and he was looking forward to the total harvest this time.
