Chapter 213, Food Protection
Daohuazhuang.
This is the Zhuangzi dedicated to planting rice flowers. It is the largest of the three Zhuangzi given to her by the Li family, covering nearly 5,000 acres of land.
In Zhuangzi, Daohua also specially built a granary.
As soon as they entered the granary, Yan Wenxiu and Defu opened their eyes wide.
Lots of wheat!
is neatly stored in warehouses.
The wheat was just harvested this year. The grains are full and shiny. Even people who don’t understand farming can see that this is a top-grade variety.
"This grain is planted with nearly 20,000 stones, right?" Defu looked excited.
The governor lost 20,000 stones and returned 20,000 stones. In this way, there is no need to be blamed.
Qin Xiaoliu nodded and smiled: "No more, no more than just 20,000 shi. This year's harvest is good. Every mu of land has almost 6 shi of grain harvested. The seeds just planted and the grain bought from several nearby villages are thrown away. Kind, these are the rest."
Yan Wenxiu's expression moved: "There are 6 stones per acre?"
Qin Xiaoliu nodded again: "Yes, but this is because the field manure in Zhuangzi, like the fields of other villagers, can only collect more than five stones."
Defu hurriedly said: "This is already very good. As far as I know, there are more than five stones per mu, which can only be reached in the south where there is plenty of rain. It is really good to have such a high yield in the north."
Qin Xiaoliu smiled. He can remember clearly that when she first told the girl about the yield per mu, the girl was still dissatisfied, saying that it was necessary to cultivate higher-yielding grain seeds in the future.
Of course, this cannot be humane to the outside world.
Defu looked at Yan Wenxiu: "Lord, let's move it, send it to Fenxi earlier, and the master will feel at ease sooner."
Yan Wenxiu nodded.
Watching the packs of wheat seeds carried onto the carriage, Defu’s heart slowly fell back to his stomach.
Compared to the more and more smiles on Defu’s face, Qin Xiaoliu looked at the granary that had finally been filled with difficulty being emptied bit by bit, it was painful on his face.
"By the way, uncle, father-in-law, have you arranged the staff to transport the grain? Don't lose it."
Defu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have notified Commander Shen that this time, he will be personally responsible for the escort, and Jin Lingwei next to the master will also follow. When we arrive at Fenxi, the governor's soldiers will also follow. When you come to meet, you must ensure that the grain seeds reach the people of Fenxi."
Qin Xiaoliu was not talking after hearing this.
Sure enough, after all the grains were loaded onto the carriage, a group of soldiers in armor and long knives came to the outside of Zhuangzi.
Qin Xiaoliu took a look, and saw that there were a lot of soldiers coming, and all of them looked pretty good, and he was completely relieved.
It was already the afternoon when Yan Wenxiu returned to the Yan Mansion. Commander Shen and the soldiers escorting the grain were in the port and did not enter the city.
Learning that he had collected 20,000 stone grain seeds, Xiao Yeyang was very excited and happy. He looked at Daohua and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he felt that it was too hypocritical to say it, so he swallowed it again.
"I have to follow the food transport team to the provincial government, so I will leave first."
Daohua thought for a while, and said: "I saw you didn't eat much at noon, wait for me, I will get you something to eat on the road." Then, she looked at Yan Wenxiu, "Is the eldest brother going too?"
"I"
Yan Wenxiu looked at Xiao Yeyang, and to be honest, he came back this time to help collect grain seeds. Now that the grain seeds are solved, the little prince can't use him.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Yan Wenxiu, and thought for a moment: "He also went, and when he arrived at Wuhua Mountain, he also picked up Wen Kai and several people from my uncle. The commanding officer had several of my uncle's subordinates. They were very skilled in riding and shooting. It's not bad. See you at the moment."
Yan Wenxiu looked up, what is Yan Jiaque? What is lacking is the background and connections, and now the little prince is willing to recommend them, that is really great.
Daohua nodded: "Well, wait, I'll get more food."
Yan Wenxiu worried that Xiao Yeyang had been waiting for a long time, so he said, "No need, right?"
Ina Flower: "Don't worry, it won't take much time." He said, turned around and ran away.
Xiao Yeyang smiled: "It's Daohua's heart after all, wait, don't worry about it for a while."
Soon, Daohua came over with a porcelain jar: "It's really cheap for you. This is the yam and black rice health porridge that I specially made for my grandmother. There are some good things in it. After you get on the ship, you will divide it up. Eat it." As he said, he handed the porcelain jar out.
Daohua reached out to Yan Wenxiu, and Yan Wenxiu was about to reach out to take it, but who knows, Xiao Yeyang took the lead and held the porcelain jar in his hand.
Seeing him protecting the food, Daohua smiled: "I can tell you, you can't eat it alone. Give half of the score to my brother. My brother is so thin, so I have to make up for it. Okay, you go, don't The delivery of grain was delayed."
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Daohua, and took Yan Wenxiu and Defu away with the porcelain jar.
After boarding the ship, Yan Wenxiu sat in the cabin and waited for Xiao Yeyang to divide his black rice porridge, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see any movement.
No, the little prince doesn’t really want to eat alone, right?
Thinking of this, Yan Wenxiu twitched the corners of his mouth, and had to ask, "Little Prince, are you hungry?"
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Yan Wenxiu, and said disgustedly: "Look at your prowess, isn't it just a bit of porridge, is it worth thinking about you like this?"
Yan Wen was silent.
That is not your ordinary porridge, it is the porridge made by the older sister for grandmother. It must taste very good.
He remembered that once when he went to greet his grandmother, he happened to be eating the yam and red date porridge that the older sister made for her. The grandmother tried half a bowl of it for him. It was delicious. He still remembers it.
". I didn't eat at noon."
After that, seeing that Xiao Yeyang still had no plans to divide the porridge, he had to take a heavy dose of medicine: "My fourth brother likes to eat the things made by the elder sister the most. Eat it."
On hearing this, Xiao Yeyang frowned. When he thought of Yan Wenkai's big stomach king, he thought it was better to eat the porridge as soon as possible.
So, while letting Defu go to get the bowls and chopsticks, he looked at Yan Wenxiu dissatisfiedly: "You just said that you don't want it, now you want to eat it again, really." After finishing speaking, he shook his head with disapproval.
Yan Wenxiu said nothing about this, because he wanted to eat porridge anyway.
Being with the little prince for so long, although he is not as relaxed as his fourth brother, but he is not too restrained.
Defu quickly took the bowl and chopsticks over.
Xiao Yeyang then opened the porcelain jar.
As soon as opened, a strong fragrance spread out.
"Grumbling~"
Defu swallowed directly.
I want to eat!
But he knew that it was impossible.
The master didn’t even want to give it to Master Yan, let alone him.
"Uh"
Looking at the half bowl of black rice porridge pushed in front of him, Yan Wenxiu looked speechless. He didn't expect that the little prince was such a food protector.
