Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2636
Seven hundred catties!
Everyone around stared wide-eyed, and Dou Jing's eyeballs were almost popping out. He was short of breath and his hands were trembling. First, he took the steelyard over and checked it carefully. It was indeed the most standard steelyard produced by the Ministry of Industry. There is also the seal of the Ministry of Industry on it, and there is absolutely no falsehood.Then he instructed the officials of Sinong Temple who followed him to remove the soil from the sweet potatoes little by little, and then weighed them meticulously one by one.

There was no mistake at all, a full seven hundred catties.

This jaw-dropping number was reconfirmed, and the crowd burst into earth-shattering cheers!

How is it possible to have such a high output?
The previous corn had shocked everyone, even His Majesty the Emperor, but now this sweet potato is even more unbelievable than corn.

"A miracle! This is a miracle!"

Dou Jing's white beard trembled excitedly, the word "auspicious" could no longer describe his shock at the moment, thinking that this could only be a miracle created by the gods descending to earth.

He came to Fang Jun's side in three steps at a time, grabbed Fang Jun's hand, and said with trembling lips, "Fang Shaobao! Erlang! Let's find a place to discuss how to write this memorial."

As for how the other Guanlong nobles felt about it, he had no time to take care of it.

The [-] catties of sweet potatoes per mu completely stunned Dou Jing. He didn't even think about what kind of reserve or camp he was. Award, and the name will go down in history and will last forever.

Fang Jun smiled, and nodded again and again: "Naturally, it is necessary to discuss well. It is really our luck as ministers to achieve such a great achievement under the leadership of the prince."

His words are equivalent to setting the tone for this matter. If he wants to share the credit, he must admit the prince's dominant position, otherwise nothing will be discussed.

Dou Jing is very clear about what such a meritorious deed means to himself and the entire Dou family. He doesn't care about other people's feelings at all. He nodded firmly and said: "The prince's benevolence has inspired God, so this kind of god came to the world. Saving trillions of lives and making our Tang people no longer suffer from hunger, this kind of merit is comparable to that of the three emperors and surpassed the five emperors, and we are honored to follow the prince to make this contribution!"

Fang Jun looked at Li Tai again and asked, "What do you think, Your Highness?"

Li Tai's eyelids twitched, he looked at the piles of sweet potatoes, bent down to pick up one, and looked up at Fang Jun: "Can you eat it?"

Fang Jun said: "Raw food tastes better than corn."

Li Tai lifted the hem of his clothes and wiped the soil on the sweet potato, put it in his mouth and "squeaked" and took a bite, a stream of sweet syrup burst out, and he yelled, sweet and refreshing, very delicious.

Swallowing this big mouthful of sweet potatoes, Li Tai wiped his mouth and said: "This matter has nothing to do with this king, don't implicate this king, otherwise this king will never end with you!"

After saying that, he took another bite.

He can naturally see how important corn and sweet potatoes are to the Great Tang and the people of the Great Tang. As long as he can participate in it, he will gain unparalleled great prestige, which is almost a benefit given to him by Fang Junbai.

But is it really free?
Impossible.

Just thinking about being involved in the fight for the reserve and having to stand on the prince's side to fight against the young slaves, he feels exhausted.

Although in my heart I was very dissatisfied with the juvenile slave jumping out to compete for the crown and ignoring the brotherhood, but in the end he is also his brother. When the two armies face each other, it is only about winning or losing. Whoever wins and who loses is the sorrow of the Li Tang royal family.

Or stay far away, out of sight is out of sight...

Fang Jun didn't force him either, this kind of thing has to be done willingly, twisted melons are not sweet, and might be hated by others, so he nodded and said: "In this case, Dou Siqing will order people to take the sweet potatoes later. Report the yield per mu to the palace and let His Majesty know. By the way, bring a few pieces of sweet potatoes for His Majesty to try. The rest of the corn and sweet potatoes will be sealed in the warehouse. When the spring of next year, a batch of suitable fields will be selected in Guanzhong Cultivate vigorously, and strive to have enough seeds to plant all over the country next year."

Dou Jing is as good as he is: "Everything is arranged by Erlang, and the old man has no objection."

Not to mention that Fang Jun gave him the credit in vain, but as far as agricultural attainments are concerned, no one in the Tang Dynasty can match him, especially the seedling raising method he created and the sophisticated grafting technique, which are all unique in the world. , compared to him, Si Nongqing himself is simply a layman...

At this moment, he can only agree with Fang Jun's proposal.

After all, as long as the prince's name is added to the memorandum, he will part ways with the Guanlong nobles in the future. For his own sake, he has to hug the prince's thigh tightly, and as the prince's number one "thug", Fang Jun is even more so. He must not offend the nobleman.

Immediately, Fang Jun arranged for people to transport the corn and sweet potatoes back to the village. The corn needs to be dried for a while, and then selected for another seed after threshing. Plant after cutting off the bud eyes.

When returning to Zhuangzi, the whole Zhuangzi was full of voices.

Several sheds have been set up in the yard in front of the gate. The cooks in the village and the restaurants in the market town have been gathered together to build several gossip stoves with green bricks. A large pot is placed on it, and the water in the pot is boiling.

A group of black pigs were tied up and placed not far from the shed. The butcher slaughtered the live pigs with a sharp knife, poured boiling water on the dead pigs and scraped off the pig hair with a scraper to reveal the white and tender skin, and then opened the pigs with a sharp knife. The fat domestic pig was divided into two, and the blade went in and out along the bone seam. After a while, it was decomposed into pieces of pork such as waist row, back elbow, and tenderloin. The ribs were also removed, and the internal organs were also removed. Cleaned up.

A dozen or twenty cooks went to battle together, and the meat pieces were thrown into the pot to cook, and the smell of meat permeated the whole Zhuangzi in an instant, and there were many women behind them carrying kitchen knives to change all kinds of vegetables into knives. The preparations for the pig-killing banquet were well-organized.

Dou Jing followed Fang Jun to the gate of Zhuangzi, and seeing such a bustling scene, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "I've lived to such an old age, and I've traveled all over the world and seen a lot, but the atmosphere like Guizhuang is harmonious and united. But it’s unique.”

Fang Jun didn't take it seriously, and said casually: "The master is not stingy with money and silk, and the servants are not stingy with physical strength. Naturally, everyone is united, rich and noble."

Li Tai sighed: "The reason is very simple, but how many people in the world can do it? The master always tries to save more money, but the servants steal and play tricks to save some energy. Mutual suspicion is the most important thing." The commonality of human beings."

Fang Jun smiled, unable to refute.

The reason why Lishan Farm is completely different from those in the Tang Dynasty, even out of place, is because of the unique "production team model". "feelings, and go all out to create more wealth.

But everyone is selfish and inert. After a period of time, this fresh energy will decrease, and people will find that they have contributed more or less, but in fact it has no effect on Zhuangzi. Personal Power seems to be negligible among the masses, so the situation of "grinding foreign workers" will appear.

This is a complicated sociological issue, and it is enough to support a subject when it is studied deeply. Fang Jun couldn't go further, but just smiled: "Let's have a few drinks together later, and we won't go home until we're drunk."

Dou Jing nodded again and again: "It's just this kind of atmosphere that makes people feel happy. It's really a great joy in life to sing a song with aspirations, accompanied by good wine!"

Li Tai sneered twice, and said: "Even if Dou Siqing has never shared a drink with this guy, I'm afraid that when Dou Siqing is supported by his subordinate officials and returns to the mansion, he will be hangovered for three days without waking up. I can't wait to bump my head against the pillar and relieve my drunkenness, so that I won't say any more pleasant words."

He has always known Fang Jun's drinking capacity, and it is not an exaggeration to say "drink all the invincible hands in Guanzhong". Old and frail people like Dou Jing may not be able to withstand even one round, so they have to go home sideways.

Dou Jing didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile: "I don't drink when I'm drunk. Is it possible that I can open my mouth and pour wine into it? Hehe, I know it well."

"Ha ha……"

Li Tai sneered, that's because you haven't seen how shameless Fang Jun's wine tastes when he wants to get drunk once he dislikes someone...

　During the Spring Festival, the virus is raging. Brothers, take good care of yourself. Don’t wander around. How good is it to stay at home and read a book?When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, we will enjoy the great mountains and rivers of our motherland again!
