Yipin Qiao Nongfei

Chapter 248

"Is this the third girl's idea?"

Liang Yuan smiled slightly, looked at Su Wanqiu, and saw her smiling sweetly: "It's my idea. Fortunately, Mr. Shen shares the same goals with me and is willing to help me. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will be powerless."

"Okay! It's good to be like-minded!"

There seemed to be an exclamation in Liang Yuan's words, Su Wanqiu thought to himself: Who are you thinking of?Do you think of Jiang Louyue, a former close friend?

While thinking about it, Shen Yuanxi said: "Mr. Liang asked me and the third girl to come here. I don't know why?"

Liang Yuan chuckled: "It's nothing, I just haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you and the third girl are in the capital, so I asked you to come over to catch up and have a meal."

Shen Yuanxi: ...

Su Wanqiu: ...

Isn't it just a meeting in Baihualou, what's the old story between you and me?

Su Wanqiu was wondering, and heard Liang Yuan say: "In addition, I have a new crop here. I heard that the third girl is an expert in this way, so I would like to ask for advice."

If you say this, I'm going to lose my mind.

Su Wanqiu's eyes lit up in an instant, and her energy and spirit had improved to a higher level. Even Liang Wan and Liang Ying could see her state. The two sisters could not help but smile. Planting, I still don’t believe it, I thought it was something those old farmers were familiar with, but it’s really true.”

Without waiting for Su Wanqiu to speak, Liang Wan glanced at Liang Ying reproachfully, and said softly, "How could Daddy lie? What's more, the white sugar that is popular among the nobles in the capital is obtained from the beets of the third girl. Before her, there were Who knew? Beets are as good a sugar-making product as sugarcane."

Su Wanqiu was only concerned about the novel crop, but saw Liang Yuanchong nodded at the old servant beside him, and after the old servant left, he said, "Speaking of white sugar, this is produced from sugar beet, and it is also a product of the sugar factory in Daxing County. The power of the three girls, so your family should have quite a few, right?"

Su Wanqiu: ...What do you mean?You are the chief minister of the cabinet, the most powerful treacherous minister in the world, don't you still want to get some autumn wind from me?
No matter how I think about it, it's because I'm out of control, how could Liang Yuan fight with her.Su Wanqiu was relieved, and said truthfully: "There are indeed some, Mr. Fang will send ten catties over every month, I just put some when making cakes, although this thing is sweet, it is not good to eat too much."

"That's it." Liang Yuan patted the chair lightly with the palm of his hand, with a smile on his face: "Since that's the case, I wouldn't be willing to waste such a good thing. It just so happens that my family has a large population, so I can help the girl eat some. Yue, I will send someone to the girl's house... Well, just give me five catties."

Su Wanqiu: ...

Shen Yuanxi: ...

"father."

Even Liang Ying was stunned by her father's brazenness: "You...how can you ask for something from the third girl? You...do you still want that old face?"

"Go." Liang Yuan glanced at the second daughter: "What do children know? Do you think it's easy to maintain such a large Liang family? Now in the capital city, white sugar costs three taels of silver per catty. Anyway, the third girl's family We can’t eat it all, give us five catties a month, that’s 15 taels of silver, and the family’s expenses can be saved.”

Su Wanqiu: ...

Shen Yuanxi: ...

"Father, our family doesn't seem to be so embarrassed."

Liang Wan couldn't see it anymore. In fact, although Liang Yuan was the mainstay of the imperial court, but despite the infamy of the whole world, this guy also had his own way of making money.Don't talk about anything else, just look at the style of this mansion, say that you are greedy to save 15 taels of sugar money a month, if you dare to say it, someone must believe it.

At least Su Wanqiu didn't believe it, um, neither did Shen Yuanxi.

Because the two looked at each other, Shen Yuanxi smiled and said: "Since Prime Minister Liang has spoken, why don't the three girls fulfill their wishes? Five catties of white sugar can make friends with the chief minister of the dynasty. If those big merchants know this, the threshold of the Liang family I'm afraid it will be broken."

Shen Yuanxi's meaning is very clear: Although I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in this rape gourd, since he took the initiative to seek friendship with you, why didn't you agree to him?Anyway, there are only advantages and no disadvantages for you. Even if he falls in the future and the emperor's courtiers liquidate his henchmen, no one will count you as a village girl.

This guy, who dislikes Liang Yuan terribly, can clearly understand the critical moment.

Su Wanqiu complained quietly in her heart, nodded happily and said, "Since Liang and Liang never give up, why would I not do it? It's just that there are many people in the family who have a lot of things to do, and they don't need them to make a special trip for five catties of sugar. I'll ask my brothers and sisters at home to send it over."

"Alright."

Liang Yuan knew that this was Su Wanqiu's plan for his brother's future, and he didn't care. This woman is extraordinary, and the brother she can send here must not be a piece of mud that can't be supported, and maybe he can find a talent for himself.

Thinking about it in my heart, the old servant over there has already come in with a small cloth bag, and respectfully said: "Master, the golden rice has been brought."

"Show the third girl."

Liang Yuan nodded at Su Wanqiu, and while sipping his tea, there was a hint of hope in his eyes.

Su Wanqiu was puzzled, and thought to himself: Golden rice?What golden rice?Don't you just use millet as a top-up?Is this for me to expose the scam?
However, as soon as Su Wanqiu got the bag, he knew that he was wrong. This place is definitely not Xiaomi, but rather...

She sucked in a breath of cold air suddenly, and suddenly tore open the drawstring at the mouth of the bag, only to see that the bag contained a few catties of yellow granules slightly larger than soybeans, which were particularly eye-catching in the sun.

"What's the matter? What is this thing? I haven't seen it before." Seeing Su Wanqiu standing there in a daze, Shen Yuanxi quickly reminded him in a low voice.

At this time, Liang Yuan also stretched his neck to look this way, and asked, "Does the third girl recognize this golden rice?"

There was even a hint of urgency in his tone, which was extremely rare for a power minister as stable as Mount Tai, which showed the importance of this thing.

"Jade...corn...all alive, the crops I've been longing for, finally got together."

Su Wanqiu murmured, while Shen Yuanxi asked doubtfully, "Corn? Isn't it golden rice? The third girl... Huh? What's the matter? You can't just start crying, right? What is this thing?"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the two of them seemed to have mentioned this corn before, and Su Wanqiu spoke highly of it, saying that it is the same staple food as rice, flour, millet, and sorghum, but the output is twice or even three times that of these...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help being horrified, at this moment I saw Su Wanqiu wiped away tears, stood up and saluted Liang Yuan Yingying, and said in a deep voice: "Master Liang congratulates, congratulations to the court and the emperor, and the people all over the world rejoice."

Liang Yuan put the teacup on the table and said eagerly, "How should I say it?"

Sure enough, it is the kind of corn she mentioned, which has a high yield and can be used as a staple food. It is different from sweet potatoes.

Shen Yuanxi listened to Su Wanqiu talking eloquently: how to plant corn, the approximate yield, how to eat it... the more he listened, the more frightened he became.

These things, if they hadn't experienced it personally, would never be so clear. How could this third girl, because she cared about the world and the common people, get carried away under the joy of it?
