Outside the palace, Fiji and Pang Yukun walked side by side. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fiji, who was scolded for being bloody, said depressedly: "Hey, Your Highness's temper is really elusive, is what I said wrong just now?" From ancient times to the present, all dynasties have been like this to foreign vassal states. ”

"Elder Feige, whether it is right or wrong, but at least it is wrong here in His Highness, but if you think about it carefully, what Your Highness said does not seem to be wrong, such as this Three Mountains Kingdom, if we still treat it in the same way as before, it will definitely fall into the hands of the Japanese in a few days, and once the Japanese have a sufficient supply of food and grass, they will inevitably invade, and then our mercy is cruel to the people of the Great Yu Kingdom, if you say so, Your Highness is not wrong at all."

"There's some truth to what you say." Fiji was a little in a trance, "But the face of the Great Chongqing Kingdom? ”

"Can you eat your face as a meal?" Pang Yukun came to a sentence that Xiao Ming often said.

Fiji opened his mouth and sighed deeply, "It seems that I have to go to the Bowen College to read the book again, and maybe I can understand His Highness's thoughts." ”

As the two were talking, they suddenly saw Li Kaiyuan walking towards the palace with two people carrying a basket of things.

Pang Yukun stopped him and asked, "What is this?" ”

"Sweet potato." Li Kaiyuan wiped his sweat and said, he sent this batch of sweet potatoes over as soon as they were unloaded from the merchant ship.

Pang Yukun's eyes widened suddenly, "This is sweet potato?" ”

"Yes, the Dutch merchant ship will be sent to Dengzhou, and I will hurry back to transport it back." Li Kaiyuan said, greeting people to leave.

Fiji looked at Pang Yukun, who was a little demented, and asked, "Pang Shoufu, why are you so excited?" ”

"Because it's more productive than potatoes." Pang Yukun burst into tears, "It seems that in the future, the Great Yu Kingdom will not starve to death." ”

"More productive than potatoes?" Fiji was also surprised and couldn't close his mouth, he looked at the things in the frame, but Li Kaiyuan took people away.

Entering the palace, Li Kaiyuan directly found Xiao Ming.

"Your Highness, this is a sweet potato sent by the Dutch." Li Kaiyuan pointed to the sweet potatoes piled up in the bamboo basket and said.

"The sweet potatoes have arrived." Xiao Ming was depressed, but the moment he saw the sweet potato, his mood instantly soared.

"I arrived in Dengzhou three days ago, and I asked someone to send it to this landing, Your Highness, can this thing really be thirty stones per acre?" Li Kaiyuan was still a little unconvinced.

"Of course, this can be fake, now that the potato has proven itself, now this king will let the sweet potato prove himself." Xiao Ming said happily that in his opinion, the value of sweet potatoes is higher than that of potatoes.

The preservation of potatoes is still a problem, but sweet potatoes can be cut into slices and dried into dried sweet potatoes, when he was a child, he often ate dried sweet potatoes, and the old people at that time said that they also ate this when they were young, and even they ate steamed buns made of sweet potato leaves.

Li Kaiyuan nodded, "If that's the case, with potatoes and sweet potatoes, the food problem of the closed country will be solved." ”

"It's not that simple, we have to wait until it's popularized." Xiao Ming said with a smile that the abundance of food means the growth of the population.

In the era of Haihang, it was the stage of population explosion in the West, and he could not lag behind, because in his opinion, after the end of the civil war in the Great Chongqing Kingdom, there would inevitably be a large-scale decline in the population, and with sufficient food, he could encourage childbearing.

Looking at the sweet potatoes in the basket, Xiao Ming was happy and a little greedy at the same time, he hadn't eaten baked sweet potatoes for a long time, at this time, Aster passed by outside the main hall, Xiao Ming called her to stop and asked her to take the sweet potatoes to the dining room to bake.

"Your Highness, this is a sweet potato?" Aster's eyes rolled.

Xiao Ming didn't know what this girl thought, he told them about the deliciousness of sweet potatoes on weekdays, so he said: "There are a lot of sweet potatoes, you can take a few to eat when the time comes." ”

"Your Highness." Aster said beautifully.

Sweet potatoes were sent, and Li Kaiyuan had nothing to do, so he left the palace with a resignation.

At this time, Xiao Ming also returned to the dormitory with a smile on his face.

At this time, Fei Yue'er was reading a book, and seeing Xiao Ming so happy, Fei Yue'er smiled and said, "What makes His Highness so happy." ”

"Li Kaiyuan sent sweet potatoes, and the Sanshan Kingdom is also about to send grain, and now the grain of the feudal country will be harvested soon, and the potatoes will also be harvested in autumn, so that the grain of the feudal country will be rich." The more Xiao Ming thought about it, the happier he became, the people regard food as the sky, and with this food, he didn't have to be afraid of anything.

Fei Yue'er was also happy for Xiao Ming when she heard it, when she first came to Qingzhou, she thought she would have a hard life, but she didn't expect that Qingzhou's life was more comfortable than Chang'an.

"Congratulations, Your Highness." Fei Yue'er said with a smile.

Xiao Ming suddenly felt proud when he heard this, the construction of the feudal country was progressing steadily, and his heart became more and more stable.

……

While the two were talking, the dining room had become a mess, and the aroma of the roasted sweet potatoes attracted the pothos and Xiaohuan.

After learning that this was the sweet potato in Xiao Ming's mouth, the two girls suddenly became greedy, and they rushed to grab it, Aster looked helpless, but she didn't bother to care, because he had taken a big sweet potato in advance, and grinned, she took a bite gently, and suddenly the sweetness and fragrance spread in her mouth, the taste was much stronger than boiled potatoes, and at this time, the pothos and Xiaohuan were also delicious.

"Your Highness is really capable, you can get such delicious things." Aster ate several bites in a row, and then sighed contentedly.

The pothos ate the fastest, and after eating the one in her mouth, she squinted her eyes with enjoyment, and then she looked at the sweet potato in Aster's hand, and said unwillingly: "Sister Aster, have you finished eating such a big sweet potato?" I'll help you eat it. ”

"You, you!" Aster glanced at the pothos and gave her a portion of it, "Your Highness is right, you are a snack." ”

The pothos doesn't care, and she is happy when she eats it.

The sweet potatoes were baked, and naturally they were sent to Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming saw that the sweet potatoes on the plate were not so novel, after all, he didn't eat less of this thing in modern times, but Fei Yue'er was different, so he picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth.

Xiao Ming snatched it empty-handed and said, "Peel the skin and eat it again." As he spoke, he peeled off the skin of the sweet potato and gave it to Fei Yue'er.

Laughing and taking it, Fei Yue'er took a bite gently, chewed it gently, and said in her mouth: "Well, it's delicious!" ”

Xiao Ming also picked up a sweet potato and ate it, sweet potatoes are the same as potatoes are a weapon to solve famine, and they will not be regarded as staple foods after they are sufficient, potatoes can be used as vegetables, and sweet potatoes have become a snack material.

After eating half of it, Fei Yue'er felt choked and panicked, and hurriedly drank a few sips of water, the first time she ate it, she felt very delicious, but sweet potatoes are the same as potatoes, they are more choking when eaten dry, but I have to say that this sweet potato is really delicious.
