"This thing is called sweet potato, and it first appeared in Fuzhou Mansion?"

To Zhu Changluo's surprise, Chen Liangbi pondered for a moment, but said leisurely. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ben Hou has seen this thing, it can indeed have a very high yield per mu, but the taste is not good, it is very different from rice and wheat, and it is easy to flatulence when you eat more, but it can indeed solve the urgency of drought!"

Zhu Changluo suddenly knew that how could someone who could mix with Chen Liangbi's position in this era be a fool?

The information he has must be much more comprehensive than himself, not to mention that Fuzhou Mansion has now spread this kind of sweet potato on a large scale, and it is not normal for Chen Liangbi to have never heard of it!

"Since Chen Shoubei knows this thing, this king will not say too much, although this thing has shortcomings, but in the year of the catastrophe, life is the foundation, this thing can fill people, is the biggest point, I implore Chen Shoubei to think of the people of Nanzhili, and order the people to plant this thing!"

Now that Chen Liangbi knows this thing, the next thing is much simpler.

After a moment of silence, Chen Liangbi spoke.

"Your Royal Highness is reasonable, although the taste of this thing is not good, but the food in the disaster year is precious, and the yield of this thing per mu is enough to make up for its shortcomings! Ben Hou turned around and arranged to promote this sweet potato in the counties of Nanzhili! ”

Zhu Changluo was relieved at this time, he was really not talking nonsense, in his impression, next year will indeed be a year of great drought that Nanzhili has not experienced for many years.

Although in the end, the power of Suzhou and Hangzhou was used to barely survive the disaster year, but it also led to a great loss of vitality in the Ming Empire, and later the second Korean campaign broke out, which finally completely intensified social contradictions and made local uprisings appear frequently......

Now with Chen Liangbi's guarantee, at least Nanzhili can survive this drought safely.

"But ......"

Chen Liangbi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhu Changluo, and spoke again.

"Your Highness should know that this matter is easier said than done, if it is based on an edict from Benhou, I am afraid that the effect will be limited!"

"That'...... Chen Shoubei means ......"

Zhu Changluo inexplicably felt his scalp tingling, and he had an ominous premonition.

"Since this matter is initiated by His Royal Highness, how can this Marquis be greedy?"

Chen Liangbi said with a smile, but it made Zhu Changluo smile bitterly.

Sure enough, none of these old guys in high positions are easy to fool, and they want to hide behind the scenes and dump this matter on him, but it seems that there is no way.

"What does Chen Shoubei want this king to do?"

In any case, since Zhu Changluo brought up this matter, he can't get out of it anyway, as for the final impact?

Whatever!

We can't let Zhu Changluo sit back and watch the hundreds of thousands of people in Nanzhili suffer from drought and be displaced!

"Hehe, Your Highness should also understand that the real reason for the promotion of this sweet potato must not be said, so I have to find another way!"

"So ......"

Listening to Chen Liangbi's obviously ill-intentioned voice, Zhu Changluo's ominous premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, but he still had to ask hard.

"I have to temporarily wronged Your Highness!"

…………

"What do you say? This is nonsense! ”

With the title of a counselor, Zhou Shixuan's position as the secretary of the military department seems a little less important, as the leader of the civilian forces in Jinling City that competes with the military generals, Zhou Shixuan looked at the official document in front of him, blew his beard and glared.

"Lord Shangshu, the lower official has repeatedly asked the garrison lord, this is indeed an official document signed by him, and it is said that the left and right are just a season of food, His Royal Highness King Shou will not stay in Nanzhili for a few years, and in a few years the emperor will recall him back to the Beijing Division, and now let him go for the time being!"

The young official below had never seen such a momentum, wiped the cold sweat on his head, and said carefully.

"Nonsense, nonsense, you go back and tell Chen Liangbi that this official will never agree to such a ridiculous thing!"

Looking at the furious Zhou Shixuan, the young official swallowed his saliva, but continued.

"Lord Shangshu, in fact, when the lower official came, he also met the father-in-law Wang An beside His Royal Highness King Shou, and he asked the lower official to tell the lord a word, saying that if the lord is unwilling to pass this official document, His Royal Highness King Shou can only let all the cultivated land in Ping'an Mansion be replanted with sweet potatoes......"

"Is he threatening the old man?"

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Shixuan jumped up.

The young official trembled and didn't dare to speak, and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, he really shouldn't go out today, otherwise he wouldn't have encountered such a drudgery.

Who doesn't know that this old man is famous for his stinky temper, but His Royal Highness King Shou doesn't know what madness he has, and he wants to make all the prefectures and counties of Quannan Zhili take out thirty percent of the arable land to grow sweet potatoes in order to eat what sweet potatoes he likes? !

The most speechless thing is that the garrison adults are also messing around, no wonder Zhou Shangshu is so angry......

"That's it, that's it, since that's the case, the old man signed this official document, but go back and tell Chen Liangbi that if there is a problem with next year's tax grain, the old man will definitely show His Majesty and treat him for dereliction of duty!"

After that, Zhou Shixuan gritted his teeth and took out the seal letter, stamped the official document with a note, and left with a flick of his sleeves.

The young official wiped his sweat, carefully put away the official documents, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that this week's Shangshu is really as rumored, with a hard mouth and a soft heart, after all, he can't bear to let all the people in Ping'an Mansion have no food and clothing, and all of them go to plant this sweet potato......

…………

At the same time, in the middle of the Hou Mansion.

A powerful man dressed in the costume of a martial artist, Wu Ruyin, the contemporary obedient marquis, sat on the top of the main hall, but looked at the housekeeper below with some suspicion, and spoke.

"Are you sure the news is good? Does His Royal Highness King Shou really like this thing called sweet potato? ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, the small confirmation news is right, the Marquis of Taining can no longer withstand the means of His Royal Highness King Shou, so he moved the Ministry of Household Studies, and ordered Nanzhili to draw thirty percent of the cultivated land in each prefecture and county next year to plant sweet potatoes, and send it to the palace by selecting its merits......"

The butler took two steps forward, the wrinkles on his face narrowed, and he spoke slowly.

After a pause, he continued.

"Master Hou, it is said that Hui Anbo and Xuancheng Bo have already made a move to replant seventy percent of the fields in the mansion with sweet potatoes, you see......"

"Hmph, these two old guys are quick to see the opportunity!"

Wu Ruyin snorted coldly and said with some unhappiness.

Gongshun Hou and Xuancheng Bo, and Hui Anbo were one of the large number of nobles who showed favor to Zhu Changluo at the beginning.

As a family of honorable relatives, Wu Ruyin knows very well what Xungui wants to rely on, in addition to military exploits, there is also a very important point to firmly hold the royal thighs.

Now that His Royal Highness King Shou is close at hand, and he is the most powerful contender for the throne, he naturally wants to get on the ship as soon as possible.

After thinking for a moment, Wu Ruyin gritted his teeth and spoke.

"Butler, you go back now, let the tenants replant all our fields, and pull out and replant those that have already been planted, Ben Hou can't let these two old guys take the lead......"
