Outside the palace, Fiji and Pang Yukun walked side by side.
"Ah, your Highness's temper is really elusive. Is what I just said wrong? Since ancient times, all dynasties have been like this
"Mr. Feige, no matter right or wrong, his highness is at least wrong here. But if you think about it carefully, his highness seems to be right. For example, if we treat the three mountain kingdom in the same way as before, it will surely fall into the hands of Japanese pirates in a few days. Once the Japanese pirates have sufficient supplies of food and grass, they will invade. At that time, our kindness is to the great The cruelty of the people of the state of Chongqing, if you say so, your highness is right. "
"There's something in what you say." "But what's the face of Dayu?" he said
"Can face serve as food?" Pang Yukun said something Xiao Ming often said.
Fijian Zhang Zhang, a deep sigh, "it seems that I have to go to the school of Bowen to read a book, perhaps to understand your Highness's ideas."
As they were talking, they suddenly saw Li Kaiyuan coming to 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 that he had just delivered these sweet potatoes from the merchant ship.
Pang Yu Kun suddenly opened his eyes, "this is sweet potato?"
"Yes, the Dutch merchant ship was sent to Dengzhou, and I brought it back as soon as possible." Li Kaiyuan said that he was about to leave.
Fiji looked at Pang Yukun, who had some dementia, and asked, "Pang Shoufu, why are you so excited?"
"Because it's more productive than potatoes." Pang Yukun's eyes filled with tears, "it seems that the state of Dayu will not starve to death in the future."
"Higher yield than potatoes?" Fiji was also surprised. He looked at the things in the box, but Li Kaiyuan took the people away.
Entering the palace, Li Kaiyuan finds Xiao Ming directly.
"Your Highness, this is a sweet potato from the Dutch." Li Kaiyuan pointed to the sweet potatoes piled in the bamboo basket and said.
"Here comes the sweet potato." Xiao Ming is depressed, but the moment he sees sweet potato, he is in high spirits.
"When I arrived in Dengzhou three days ago, I had it delivered to me as soon as it reached the shore. Your highness, is it really 30 stones per mu?" Li Kaiyuan still doesn't believe it.
"Of course, it can be false. Now potatoes have proved themselves, and now Wang will let sweet potatoes prove themselves." Xiao Ming said happily that in his opinion, sweet potato is more valuable than potato.
The preservation of potatoes is still a problem, but sweet potatoes can be cut into slices and dried in the sun. When he was young, he often ate dried sweet potatoes. The old people at that time said that they also ate this when they were young, and even they ate steamed bread made of sweet potato leaves.
Li Kaiyuan nodded, "if so, with potatoes and sweet potatoes, the food problem of feudalism will be solved."
"It's not as simple as that. We'll have to wait until it's popularized." Xiao Ming said with a smile that sufficient food means population growth.
In the era of Da Hai Hang, the population explosion in the west, he can not lag behind, because in his view, after the end of the civil war in Da Yu, the population will inevitably decline on a large scale, and with sufficient food, he can encourage fertility.
Looking at the sweet potatoes in the basket, Xiao Ming is happy and greedy. He hasn't eaten baked sweet potatoes for a long time. Just at this time, aster passes by from the main hall. Xiao Ming shouts her and asks her to take the sweet potatoes to the dining room and bake them.
"Your Highness, is this sweet potato?" The aster's eyes were rolling.
Xiao Ming didn't know what the girl thought. He told them about the delicious sweet potato, so he said, "there are many sweet potatoes. You can take some to eat at that time."
"Thank you, your highness." Said the aster happily.
When he brought sweet potatoes, Li Kaiyuan had nothing to do with it. He left the palace with a word of farewell.
At this time, Xiao Ming also went back to the bedroom with a smile on his face.
At this time, Fei yue'er is reading a book. Seeing that Xiao Ming is so happy, Fei yue'er says with a smile, "what makes your highness so happy?"
"Li Kaiyuan sent sweet potatoes, and Sanshan kingdom will send food soon. Now the food of Fengguo will be harvested soon, and potatoes will be harvested in autumn. In this way, the food of Fengguo will be rich." The more Xiao Ming thought about it, the happier he was. Food was the people's priority. With this food, he would not have to be afraid of anything.
Fei yue'er is also happy for Xiao Ming. When she first came to Qingzhou, she thought she would live a hard life. Unexpectedly, life in Qingzhou is more comfortable than that in Chang'an.
"Congratulations, your highness." Fei yue'er said with a smile.
When Xiao Ming heard this, he felt proud. The construction of Fengguo went on steadily, and his heart became more and more stable.
……
While they were talking, the dining room was in a mess, and the smell of sweet potato roasted attracted green pineapple and small ring.
After learning that this is the sweet potato in Xiao Ming's mouth, the two girls immediately became greedy and rushed to grab it. Aster had no choice, but she didn't care. He took a big sweet potato in advance and laughed. She took a bite, and the sweet and fragrant smell spread in her mouth. The taste was much stronger than boiled potatoes. At this time, green pineapple and small ring were also delicious It's Zizi."Your Highness is really capable. You can get all these delicious things." Aster ate several mouthfuls in a row, then sighed with satisfaction.
Lvluo ate the fastest. After eating the food in her mouth, she narrowed her eyes happily. Then she looked at the sweet potato in Aster's hand and said, "elder sister aster, can you finish eating such a big sweet potato? I'll help you with that. "
"You, you!" Aster white green Luo one eye, part of the distribution to her, "Your Highness is right, you are a snack goods."
Lvluo doesn't care. She'll be happy if she eats some.
When the sweet potatoes are baked, they are naturally sent to Xiao Ming. Xiao Ming is not so novel when he sees the sweet potatoes on his plate. After all, he doesn't eat less of them in modern times. Fei yue'er is different. He happily picks up one and puts it in his mouth.
Xiao Ming grabbed it empty handed and said, "peel it before you eat it." He peeled off the skin of the sweet potato and gave it to Fei yue'er.
Laughingly took the past, Fei Yue son gently bit, chewed, read: "well, really delicious!"
Xiao Ming also picked up a sweet potato and ate it. Sweet potato, like potatoes, is a sharp weapon to solve the famine. When food is sufficient, it will not be regarded as a staple food. Potatoes are used for cooking, and sweet potatoes become the material of snacks.
After eating half of it, Fei yue'er choked and drank a few water. The first time she ate it, she felt very delicious. But like potatoes, sweet potatoes are choking. But I have to say, sweet potatoes are really delicious.
