Chapter 55, Treasure Flashlight

[Rice, the first of the five grains, has an output of about one thousand kilograms per mu. 】

[And there is a crop called potato in Nanchang. 】

[The yield per mu is as high as 8,000 kilograms, eight times that of rice. 】

[Potatoes are sown once in spring and autumn and mature in three months. They are very easy to grow. 】

Dongfang Zheng was secretly shocked.

Very high yield per mu.

I didn’t expect that Nanchang country still has such good things.

Kind.

It must be grown by the people in the north.

Dongfang Zheng looked at Nangong Xinmao excitedly.

"I want to buy potato seeds from your Nanchang country."

When the seeds arrive, it's just in time to sow.

Nangong Xinmao can't keep up with Dongfang Zheng's ideas.

Why did you mention potatoes?

"May I ask what your majesty wants to do when you buy potatoes?"

"I will use it to solve the famine problem of the people in the north."

Nangong Xinmao still has a kind heart.

"Your Majesty, you don't know. The yield per acre of potatoes is indeed very high."

"But these potatoes are poisonous and cannot be eaten."

"Eating it can cause diarrhea in the mildest case and death in the worst case."

At first, the people of Nanchang State ate potatoes and many people died.

He didn't want other innocent people to make the same mistake.

[You are poisoned because you are eating sprouted potatoes. 】

[Unsprouted potatoes are not poisonous and can be eaten. 】

"I know."

"You just need to sell it to us, Dongli Country, and there is no need to worry about anything else."

Nangong Xinmao rubbed his ears.

Did he hear it right?

Dongfangzheng knew that potatoes were poisonous, so they still wanted to use potatoes to solve the famine.

What does Dongfangzheng want to do?

This is because they are afraid that the people will not die quickly enough.

The ministers also didn't understand this.

Dongfang Zheng's eyebrows were flying and he explained to everyone.

"Jixing told me how to avoid poisoning when eating potatoes."

It's that lucky star again.

Nangong Xinmao couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart.

"Your Majesty, what is the solution? I also want to know."

"And who is Ji Xing?"

[I also want to know who the lucky star is. 】

Dongfang Zheng raised his index finger and shook it.

"I can't say yet."

Nangong Xinmao wanted to scratch his head.

Within the four countries.

Dongli Country has the smallest land area and the weakest strength.

Potatoes come from Nanchang.

Their country itself does not know how to avoid potato poisoning.

But Tory, who is weaker than them, knows.

This feeling is so bad.

How come Ji Xing is from Dongli country?

It would be great if the auspicious star is from their Nanchang country.

Sensing Nangong Xinmao's envious eyes mixed with a little jealousy, Dongfang Zheng laughed.

The mood is very beautiful.

He has been emperor for so many years.

This is the first time that I have been so proud in front of the other three countries.

This is all thanks to Su Yaoyao.

When his eyes glanced at Su Jingchen, who was still kneeling in the center of the hall.

Dongfang Zheng restrained his smile.

I almost forgot that there is another annoying guy here.

Su Jingchen's face was burning.

What he thought was a good plan was rejected by His Majesty as soon as he proposed it.

His Majesty also pointed out a lot of shortcomings in the plan.

He became the biggest joke in the hall.

"Su Jingchen, from now on, you are not allowed to step into the palace again."

【Great. 】

[It saves him from making trouble every time he has a banquet. 】

[I’m crazy about wanting to be famous. 】

Su Jingchen tightened his fingers slightly.

The last time he stole poems was exposed, his career was ruined, and he became the laughing stock of people in the capital.

Among them, the students hated him the most.

This time the matter of offering advice involves the common people.

The people will definitely hate him deeply.

It is difficult for him to have a place in the capital.

Su Jingchen could not face the anger of the people.

He didn't want to hide at home like a shrunken turtle, nor did he want to be forced to leave the capital in despair.

He had to make amends.

"Your Majesty, the common people got a treasure a few days ago."

"This treasure can shine, and the light is very dazzling."

"The ordinary people know that they are humble and stupid, so they want to dedicate this treasure to His Majesty to make the merits of the crime go away."

Su Jingchen hurriedly took out something from his sleeve and offered it with both hands.

This was a gift his sister gave him a few days ago.

He liked it so much that he kept it with him.

If the situation hadn't been so bad this time, he would never have taken this thing out and made it public.

Su Yaoyao is full of interest.

[Ouch, isn’t this a flashlight? 】

Su Jingchen pressed the switch on the flashlight.

The flashlight gave off a beam of light. The whole hall was very bright.

Everyone was very surprised by this.

"It's so bright. The light emitted by this object is brighter than a night pearl, just like daytime."

"I have read many strange books, but this thing has never been mentioned in any strange books."

"This is indeed a treasure."

……

[The light of this flashlight is a bit dim. 】

[The battery should be running out soon. 】

[There is no place to charge here. 】

[The flashlight will no longer be able to shine when it runs out of power, and it will be useless. 】

Dongfang Zheng's eyes revealed confusion.

Charge? How to charge?

Is it charging by lightning?

Nangong Xinmao kept staring at the flashlight.

He did not get things done when he came to Dongli Country this time.

If I could bring this treasure back to my father, my father would definitely be very happy.

"Su Jingchen, can you give me this treasure?"

"I'll trade it with you for something else."

Seeing that everyone was very interested in what he took out, Su Jingchen felt much better.

His sister's things are certainly not bad.

From now on, it is also a good path for him to rely on his sister's things to be active in front of everyone.

Su Jingchen looked at Dongfang Zheng with a smile.

When he found that Dongfang Zheng was wandering in the world, his smile became a little stiff.

The people he most wanted to attract attention to were not interested in his treasure.

Why is this happening?

Su Jingchen was greatly puzzled.

He gritted his teeth and looked at Nangong Xinmao.

He made a deal that he felt was a loss.

"Your Highness, the common people want to trade this treasure with you for potatoes."

"Then offer the potatoes to His Majesty."

"Okay, I understand, I understand."

Nangong Xinmao ran to Su Jingchen's side excitedly.

Su Jingchen explained to Nangong Xinmao.

"This black dot, press it and the light will disappear."

"Press it again and the light will be there again."

"Okay, I understand." Nangong Xinmao stretched out his hand, "I'll try."

Just as Su Jingchen was about to hand it over, he noticed that the light of the flashlight dimmed quickly.

Until the light disappears completely.

[There isn’t much power in the flashlight. 】

[You are still wasting electricity like this. 】

【Isn’t this self-defeating? Hahaha. 】

【Too bad. 】

Nangong Xinmao took back his hand upon seeing this.

"What's going on, Su Jingchen? I haven't touched it yet, why doesn't it light up?"

"Your Highness, wait a moment, let me see what's going on."

Su Jingchen pressed the switch repeatedly, but there was no response to the flashlight.

He was so anxious that a thin layer of sweat quickly broke out on his forehead.

what happened?

Why did it suddenly stop lighting up?

Nangong Xinmao's face gradually darkened.

"Su Jingchen, your treasure must be broken."

"Fortunately, I didn't touch it just now, otherwise I wouldn't be able to wash it off even if I jumped into the Yellow River, and I would suffer a big loss."

The ministers whispered among themselves.

"This treasure will go bad too quickly."

"Did Su Jingchen already know that this treasure was going to be broken?"

"So I lay the trap and wait for others to take advantage of it so that I can put the blame on others."

"With his character, I think it's very possible."

"so bad."

……

Su Jingchen kept shaking his head.

"No, I didn't."

He was wronged.

This is an accident.

He really never thought about using treasures to plot against Nangong Xinmao.

It's not like he's tired of living.

Nangong Xinmao rolled down his sleeves with a cold face.

I didn't believe a word of Su Jingchen's words.

"Your Majesty, this person's heart is not right."

"The punishment of 'not allowing him to enter the palace' is too light."

No matter what, he is still the prince of Nanchang Kingdom.

He did not allow Su Jingchen, a commoner, to challenge his majesty.

Dongfang Zheng had also seen enough of Su Jingchen's farce.

"Someone is coming."

Su Jingchen was extremely panicked.

Su Chenghua was demoted and there was nothing we could do to save him for the time being.

Who else can save him?

Scanning Jiang's eyes not far away, Su Jingchen's eyes lit up and he quickly rushed over.

[As long as I'm here, don't think of doing anything bad to my mother. 】

Su Yaoyao used her internal energy to hit the painful point on Su Jingchen's leg.

Su Jingchen tilted his body.

He fell down next to Jiang's table and ate shit.

Su Jingchen grimaced in pain.

He spoke quickly before the officers and soldiers caught him.

"Mrs. Jiang, a year ago, your eldest son rushed into the sea of ​​​​fire to save others, and was repaid with revenge."

"As long as you save me, I will tell you who your son saved in the first place."
