No matter when, when a person says the phrase "I am an honest person" in front of you, you will always have an urge to laugh, whether you recognize it or not, because of this chaotic shijie, people will always have a preconceived subjective emotion, they will stubbornly think that there is no honest person in the world, especially the so-called honest person who comes out of their mouth, then it is not an honest person! The more you say you're honest, the less honest you are! A nasty billet!

Li Erbixia was also dominated by his own subjective emotions at this time, and the troubled times just ended. In order to survive, they all become ghosts and ghosts, and the common people are still like this, not to mention the generation of heroes in the court, all of them are scheming talents, or how can they all say that the times create heroes? Although this kid is young, everything he does shows maturity far beyond his years.

The person who sneaked up on Dingxiang and captured Yang Zhengdao can be described as an honest person? Burning Yin Mountain, destroying **30,000 troops, capturing all the nobles, can you be honest? At the beginning of the court, in a few words, the erudite Hongru was defeated and shocked by the court, and the court can be described as an honest person? What did Suning do from the beginning of his field of vision, which point met the requirements of Mu Ne's honest people? This kid is a really smart person who understands people! is still a hungry ghost, and he dares to do something to Chun'er's girl, hum!

"Are you an honest man? Hehehe, you are an honest person, so Jieli is also an honest person! Okay, you stinky boy, don't talk about these things, tell me your method quickly! How can we make Datang free from hunger!? Li Erbixia snorted and expressed his dissatisfaction, but the extreme longing in his words could be heard by anyone.

Suning smiled and bowed and said: "The minister's method actually comes from the master, bixia can know that the land south of the Yangtze River, especially the land of Lingnan, is not only not a poor place, but a treasure land?" Rice is grown there, because the climate is hot and it rains a lot, so you can grow two or even three crops a year! It has been recorded since the pre-Han Dynasty. ”

Li Erbixia said in surprise: "I haven't heard of this, for the sake of food, Datang is also working hard, and I also understand that the soil in the south is fertile, but the south is sparsely populated, the climate is hot, there are many barbarians, the roads are not passable, the atmosphere is not open, and the official army of the Tang Dynasty is still difficult to effectively govern, not to mention the development of the army?" But if it's really as you say, can those rice crops really be planted for two or even three crops? What is the yield? ”

Suning said: "The yield of rice planted in the south is definitely higher than that of our fields in the north, and it is not a little higher. ”

Li Erbixia was quite excited: "That's good! All right! I immediately ordered someone to go to the south to look for rice seeds! ”

Suning continued: "However, the climate in the south is hot, the rain is abundant, compared to the north is very different, rice can be cultivated and grown in the south, and planted for two or even three seasons, it can be said that it is all thanks to the climate in the south. ”

Li Erbixia's excited expression immediately froze, and he said with an angry face: "You kid, what do you want to say, arouse my hope, and say this, what do you want to do!?" ”

Suning said: "Of course, it is for Bixia, and Shizun has taken this situation into account, so he proposes two solutions. ”

Li Erbixia immediately rekindled his hope and immediately asked, "What are the two methods?" ”

Suning said: "The first method is to pour the power of the Tang Dynasty to develop Jiangnan, shift the focus of the Tang Dynasty to the south, and move the people from the north to the south to live in peace, and the capital of the Tang Dynasty is best to move to the south, so as to show the world the intention and determination to develop the Jiangnan. ”

Li Erbixia's face froze, and he muttered: "This, how easy is this to say?" ”

Suning nodded: "Shizun also said so, according to the observation of the minister, according to the current national strength of the Tang Dynasty, if you do your best to develop Jiangnan, you will be able to lose the country in about ten years." ”

Li Erbixia slapped the table: "You bastard!" Isn't that teasing me! Li Erbixia was indeed a little angry, aroused his hope several times, and turned his hope into disappointment several times, which inevitably made Li Erbixia feel that Suning was teasing him, so he slapped the table in anger.

Suning didn't feel scared, but smiled and said, "Bixia, don't be in a hurry, where do you dare to tease Bixia?" It is precisely because of the infeasibility of the first method that Shizun has a second method, bringing the rice from the south of the Yangtze River to the north for planting, after decades of unremitting labor, finally obtained the rice that can be cultivated in the northern land, although the water demand is larger, but it is similar to the wheat currently planted in the Tang Dynasty, as for the yield, the result of Shizun's trial planting is one acre of land and five stone rice. ”

Lift up the hole cards and show them, do you have anything to say?

Without chemical fertilizers and hybridization, the yield of conventional rice in one mu of land in Jiangnan and Jiangbei is almost 500 kilograms, and one stone in the Tang Dynasty is about fifty-nine kilograms, which is about eight stones, but Suning takes into account the difference in planting methods and the use of pesticides and the difference in the area of one acre, and reports a yield of about five stones, that is, 295 kilograms, less than 300 kilograms of output, which can be regarded as a conservative number.

After Suning finished speaking, he saw Li Erbixia's demented appearance, that is, Wang De who was standing next to him, seemed to be stunned, and after a long time, Li Erbixia was shocked, and then trembled and said: "One acre of land, five stones? In other words, Datang's grain output can be five times more than before? ”

Suning nodded: "Bixia is right, this is still a conservative number, because my master and apprentice are not very good at farming, naturally not as good as farmers who cultivate all day, so the minister took a three-day leave this time, just to go to the fiefdom to distribute the remaining seeds to the farmers, tell them to cultivate carefully, and tell them to do some things that must be done, and then see what the yield is, maybe there are some discrepancies, but in any case, it is much better than those wheat that produces one stone per mu." ”

Li Erbixia stood up suddenly, clenched his hands into fists, clenched tightly, stared at Suning, and then walked forward quickly and slapped the dragon claws on Suning's shoulders, so hard that Suning almost fell: "Don't say five stones, it's four stones and three stones!" I also reward you with a marquis of Sanyuan County! Add 200 households! And the front seal 800 households! Give another thousand acres of fertile land! And the front seal 3,000 acres! This is the treatment of the national prince! ”

Suning was happy, and there was indeed a reward, so Suning said: "It's just that rice has such a heavy reward?" ”

Li Erbixia didn't know why, and said angrily: "Do you know what kind of situation it will be like to increase grain production three times, four times, and five times? Now that the population of Datang is less than 10 million, these grains still make the imperial treasury empty, if it is doubled several times, not to mention that the imperial treasury is full, at least Datang can feed another 30 million people! Thirty million! What a credit that is! If you weren't too young, what if you were directly rewarded with a national duke?!

You bastard, you have such a treasure hidden! It's been a few months since I was an official to tell me! Weishenme is not dedicated to me for the first time?! Well?! Millions of people in Datang are still struggling on the verge of hunger, but you bastard boy has been dragging on for months! Blame me and the court for inaction, and dare to accuse me! What did you do yourself!? Stinky boy! Bastard boy! Haha! Haha! ”

Li Er Bixia was so happy, so he lost his normalcy under the joy, as if he regarded Suning as an enemy, he pinched Suning's shoulder hard, Suning grinned in pain: "Bixia, Bixia, let go quickly!" Let go! The minister still has something to offer to Bixia, and there is still something to dedicate to Bixia! ”

Li Erbixia immediately let go when he heard this: "I know that you kid still has something to hide, hurry up and hand it over!" Hand it all over! If you dare to hide it again, I'll have to cut off your head! ”

As soon as Suning broke free, he immediately jumped several meters away, ensuring that Li Erbixia had enough time to react if he pounced, because the next news was even more exciting: "Actually, all the seeds of the minister, not only one kind of rice, but also one called potato and one called corn, are all things from other countries, brought back by Shizun from the country of the extreme south, the yield of potatoes per mu is about thirty stones, and corn is about eight stones, all of which are very high-yield crops."

Both of these crops can be eaten as food, but potatoes are more suitable for cooking and eating, of course, they can also be eaten as food, but it is still a little uncomfortable to always eat potatoes, but the potato field is extremely delicious for cooking, and it is also full, if it is a famine year, only eating potatoes can survive, potatoes are well stored, and if they are kept dry, they can be stored for about a year, that is to say, even if there is no harvest in this year and potatoes were planted in the previous year, then it can survive until the next year's grain harvest without starvation.

Moreover, potatoes are easy to plant, and they can be planted on wasteland and dry land, but it is more consuming of soil resources, and it is better to plant them every year and not plant them for a year; As for corn, although the yield per mu is not as good as potatoes, it is still higher than rice, and it can also be used as grain to eat, and it can also be used as a vegetable, and the same can survive, and it can also be ground into flour to eat, which is very delicious and nutritious, these are rare treasures!

Bixia,These two things are still trying to grow in the minister's home,Because the seeds are too few, so the minister wants to try the seed himself.,After planting, let's see the specific situation and promote it to the whole Datang.,If it goes well,Bixia,Within five years,Datang should have no worries about hunger.,The main thing is that the yield of potatoes is too high.,And the requirements are very low.,Other rice and corn can also be.,It's not easy to say once you encounter a drought or something.,That is, potatoes are used to save their lives.,Rice and corn are used to eat a full stomach.,Bixia can rest assured. , the minister swears in the name of an honest man, it is absolutely true! ”
