Xue Lang did not answer the admiration of the prince and the king of Qin, but slowly explained the reason:

"in the spring, there was a heavy snow, and the king of Qin attacked Liu heikai. Affected by this, he even lost and lost. At that time, I was in weizeguan. The cold climate was very unbearable. When I asked his highness what I had to keep out the cold, I knew that there was no cotton It is the cotton padded jacket and quilt made of baidiezi bullet. After careful examination, we can see that baidiezi was still used as a kind of exotic flowers and grasses in our dynasty because there was no way to do it. In foreign countries, cotton is a necessary thing in winter. Even ordinary people, whether in the South or the north, will make several cotton quilts for winter protection, which is very common. But cotton, as long as the climate is suitable, is very easy to grow

When she came, Princess Pingyang reminded Xue Lang not to refuse the saint's appointment too much, so as not to collide with the sage and make him feel ungrateful.

In order to solve this problem, Xue Lang thought hard and thought of cotton. The trial planting of cotton is beneficial to both the country and the country. Using this as an excuse, Li Yuan can't say anything. He can only praise him, and he won't have any idea about Princess Pingyang.

Now it seems that everything is as expected. Xue Lang said tactful, like him, praise!

Li Yuan asked in a hurry: "what kind of climate is suitable for planting cotton? Please teach me

Li Yuan didn't call Bai diezi, but he followed Xue Lang to call cotton. Xue langlian said in a hurry: "no, I will tell the sage."

Since ancient times, China's cotton production areas have been divided into three areas, one is the Yellow River Basin cotton production area, one is the Yangtze River basin production area, and the other is the northwest inland cotton region.

According to the current situation and territory of the Tang Dynasty, only the first one can be popularized. The second one is sparsely populated and has not been developed by the imperial court. Let alone the third one, it is not the territory of the Tang Dynasty, which is beyond the control of the court. Even in the first production area, Liu heikai was still in chaos. Therefore, the imperial court still has a long way to go to promote the cultivation of cotton.

Xue Lang said: "the sage, about the planting conditions of cotton, cotton likes warm weather and sunshine, afraid of humidity, cold, frost, rain and waterlogging, and high drought. There is a doggerel, which is very intuitive. He said, "cotton was a sick man when he was young, a medicine pot when he grew up, and became a money string when he was old." According to Yichen's observation along the way, Qilu, Hebei and Henan are the most suitable places for planting; secondly, Guanzhong and Youzhou can also be planted. In fact, the climate of the western regions is the most suitable for planting cotton, so Gaochang will have so much cotton output. "

Li Yuan nodded and said, "weizeguan is trying to grow cotton. How is the progress?"

Xue Lang said: "the sage, everything is going well at present. When Wei Chen goes back, he will be able to harvest it, and then calculate the yield. Because it was the first year of trial planting. Although Wei Chen knew about cotton, he was not proficient in planting management. In this year's planting management, the princess took two gardeners from Beijing to discuss the trial planting. If we have gained experience this year, we will try to increase the planting area next year, learn from the experience in the planting process, and improve the technology. This will take time and time. We can't be anxious. "

Li Yuan said: "in this case, the Qing family should go back to weizeguan first and wait for the spring next year. You may choose suitable land near the capital and try planting sweet potatoes, potatoes and cotton together, and you will be in charge of it. In Chang'an, I will send all the gardeners who are good at cultivating cotton to the Qing family, and strive to realize the high yield of cotton as soon as possible. "

This is to set a time limit for Xue Lang, and it is also the value of Xue Lang. In fact, Xue Lang is not willing to come back to Beijing after next year. It is recorded in history that the royal highness of the princess died in Wu De six years. It was not written at the beginning of the year or at the end of the year or at the end of the year.

Before this worry is solved, Xue Lang has no intention of coming to the capital. However, when he wanted to explain to Princess Pingyang when he arrived, Xue Lang only got the following words: "thank you for your attention. I will try my best."

I didn't agree positively, but I didn't refuse.

Today's court meeting is mainly about sweet potatoes and potatoes. Cotton is an unexpected harvest. Xue Lang finished what he could say. The next details were about the officials in Beijing, which had nothing to do with him.

The details are not a big deal and will be discussed soon. After discussing other issues, the ministers spoke freely. When they spoke, they would look at the wat board in their hands from time to time.

Wat board in the dynasty, equivalent to a notepad. Before the court, I recorded the main points of the speech on the wat board, so that the speech could be concise and clear. Or write down the conclusions of the court meeting and the orders of the saints on the wat board, so as not to forget mistakes and omissions.

If some officials want to report more things on the day of Chaoyi meeting, and a piece of wat board can not be written down, they will take more wat boards. With the wat board more, in order to carry convenience, officials will even be filled with a bag of wat board, called wat bag.

In the process of the Korean parliament, if there is an official's speech, you can praise it by clapping the wat board. In ancient times, the Shang Dynasty was not rigid, and nothing was allowed. In fact, it was very humanized.

Xue Lang listened to the discussion of the officials, and then confirmed what he had learned in his heart. He only listened and felt that he had learned a lot. At least, he had some understanding of the local customs, customs and social conditions of ancient times."Youyang, please stay."

When he was about to go back to the post house, he was stopped by Li Gang. There was a young man about the same age as Xue Lang.

Xue Lang stopped and said, "Li Gong! I don't know what I can do for you? "

Li Gang said with a smile: "it's a good thing to stop Youyang. Come on, I'd like to introduce you to Yan Lide, the great craftsman who will be the supervisor. I'd like to introduce you to him. It's time to take Youyang to the imperial residence after the dynasty is dispersed! Is this a good thing

Xue Lang smiles and bows his hand: "it's really a great good thing. Thank you very much."

Li Gang waved his hand with a smile and said, "since the master craftsman and Youyang still have something to do, I'll go first. After Youyang's affairs are finished, it's not too late to talk to Youyang again."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Li. Take your time."

Seeing li gang off, Xue Langchao Yan Lide bowed his hand: "please, master Yan."

Yan Lide said politely: "Xue Jun Gong is polite. This is the responsibility of the lower officials."

In fact, Yan Lide, a famous painter and architect, may not be familiar with him, but he must be known more about his younger brother, Yan Liben.

The two brothers are also very interesting. They came from an engineering family. Their mother was Princess Jingdu, daughter of Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Both are good at architecture and painting. However, his brother is good at drawing figures, trees, stones and animals, while his younger brother Yan Liben is good at painting figures, chariots and horses, and Taige.

Xue Lang wanted to study architectural design when he was admitted to university. Although he didn't succeed in the end, he also read a lot of books. Naturally, the Yan brothers are familiar with this great craftsman of the Tang Dynasty. Xue Lang is actually a passer-by.

If there is a chance in the future, we must ask the two brothers to work together to draw a picture for him. There should be trees, stones, animals, chariots, horses and pavilions, so that both brothers have the opportunity to show their strengths.

As a fan, Xue Lang plans to poke.
