Chapter 88 Biochemical Weapons
"Huaizhong, don't be in a hurry for this matter. I'll call in the construction experts and make a total calculation for me. Don't be in a hurry... Wan'er, let's go and see the flowers." Yang Reform turned to Zheng Huaizhong After giving the order, he turned his head and said to Queen Zhou Wan'er.

……

A group of people quickly arrived at the palace back garden, wandering around to watch.

Zheng Huaizhong came over again and said, "Your Majesty, there is a rare item that I want to dedicate to Your Majesty." Zheng Huaizhong looked mysterious.

"Oh, Huaizhong, what good thing do you have for me?" Yang Reform wondered, what good thing is it?

"Your Majesty, this thing came into our dynasty from overseas, and it has a very magical effect. It is a strange thing." Zheng Huaizhong looked exaggerated.

Yang Reform was also attracted by this exaggerated expression.Want to know quickly what this is.

After a while, several young eunuchs came over with things.Cover it with a cloth.Hold it on a tray, don't know what's in it.

"Your Majesty, please look, this is an overseas wonder, pepper." As he spoke, Zheng Huaizhong gently shook off the tray covered with cloth.

spicy? ?Yang Reform was taken aback, and he yelled in his heart that he was selling cakes.Isn't this your favorite chili in the 21st century?Is this what Zheng Huaizhong was talking about?Pepper?

When it comes to chili, you have to talk about spicy, and you have to talk about barbecue. This thing is so tempting, Yang Reform can't help swallowing when he thinks about it.

Empress Zhou Wan'er also looked at Fanjiao curiously, and then watched the emperor swallow her saliva curiously.Asked curiously: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Is there anything wrong with this thing?"

"This thing is a good thing! Good thing..." Yang Reform seemed to smell the aroma of barbecue, and swallowed a few more saliva involuntarily.

"Zheng Huaizhong, where did you get this stuff?" Yang Reform was very curious. He had eaten royal dishes for so long, but he had never eaten chili, and he felt that the taste was missing.Wouldn't it be great if I could plant some myself?Alternatively, it is also a good choice to hold a barbecue party in the Ming Dynasty, where the monarch and his ministers have fun together.

"Your Majesty, I found this servant from an overseas merchant. I have been looking for it for a long time." Zheng Huaizhong became proud of himself as he spoke. It seems that His Majesty likes this thing very much.

Yang Reform thought to himself, it really is good, this thing was introduced to China from overseas, and it arrived in China at the end of Ming Dynasty. .

Yang Reform reached out to rummage through the dried peppers.It looked very small, only the size of a finger, and the color was bright red. I held it up to my nose and smelled it, and a pungent, pungent smell went straight into my nasal cavity.Yang Reform sneezed violently. "Ah gas...".

Empress Zhou Wan'er quickly supported the emperor, and asked with concern: "Your Majesty, what's the matter? Is it important?"

"It's okay, Wan'er. This thing is called chili pepper. It's very spicy. I choked on it when I smelled it. It's not a problem." Yang Reform is very happy. Being able to eat chili pepper in the Ming Dynasty is really happier than being an emperor.

Oil fried chili.

Fried peppers.

Chutney.

Spicy BBQ.

Mala Tang.

All kinds of hot and spicy eating methods appeared in front of my eyes...

"Zheng Huaizhong, this thing is very good. Do you have seeds? Do you know how to plant them?" Yang Reform's first thought was to plant a few acres of land immediately, so that he would have no shortage of peppers to eat.

"Your Majesty, yes, yes, the seeds of this thing are the small seeds. It is enough to plant in March and April every year, water and fertilize frequently, and it can be harvested in August and September of that year. Now, this, the servants have asked clearly..." Zheng Huaizhong wished to give the emperor everything he knew from the merchant.

"How many seeds are there? Where is this seed seller?"

"Your Majesty, I found this item from a merchant who sold Nanyang goods. The person who sold this item has long since disappeared. There is still a small bag of seeds here." Zheng Huaizhong has heard of it since the last time. After the emperor became interested in this thing, he tried everything possible to find it, and his hard work paid off. Finally, he found the kind of thing that the emperor described in a shop selling Nanyang goods. Of course, it was the fruit of this kind of thing. , the fresh plants from there, under repeated guarantees from the shopkeeper, Zheng Huaizhong was finally convinced that this was the kind of pepper the emperor was looking for.So, I bought it in a hurry and kept it in the palace. When the emperor came one day, I dedicated it to the emperor, so as to achieve the goal of getting close to the emperor. I was lucky. Not long after, the emperor came to the back garden of the palace again. Zheng Huaizhong He quickly took out his collection and presented it to the emperor.

"How many are there, let me see..." Yang Reform really misses chili peppers so much, he can't wait to use it to stir-fry a few dishes right away to satisfy his appetite.I haven't eaten chili for a long time, and I'm tired of eating this dish.So, first check how much stock there is, if there is more, you can fry two dishes, if there is less, then forget it, as seeds, you can eat them in the second half of this year.

Zheng Huaizhong agreed, turned around and went to the place where the peppers were hidden.The emperor really likes this thing, he has his eyes on it, and he is going to be lucky.

After a while, Zheng Huaizhong came to the emperor with a pack of chili peppers, panting, "I want to report to your majesty,... slaves... slaves bought, bought peppers, all... all of them are here."

Yang Reform ignored Zheng Huaizhong, twisted up the small cloth bag by himself, weighed it, it weighed about one or two catties, and when he opened it, he found that it was full of bright red dried chilies.Xindao, fortunately, I can make a few meals of chili to appetize.

Empress Zhou Wan'er was also curious. The emperor was so interested in things that he couldn't help but come over to see something new.I heard that it is still a new gadget shipped from overseas.

Empress Zhou Wan'er came over and looked into the bag, it was full of bright red things, and then there was a pungent, pungent smell, Empress Zhou Wan'er sneezed several times. "Ah!" "Ah!" The snot was thrown out.The image is greatly damaged.

"Your Majesty, what are you talking about! Why are you choking your nose like this..." Zhou Wan'er complained, expressing her dissatisfaction with the image of her empress affected by the hot pepper.

"Hehe, Wan'er, you're choking on it. This is spicy! It's very spicy and choking. Be careful, and you'll be fine if you hold your breath when you get close..." Yang Reform smiled and taught Zhou Wan'er how to avoid being choked. to the experience.

"I don't, this is too suffocating..." Zhou Wan'er expressed her dissatisfaction with the damage to her image just now.

"Hehe..." Yang Reform had no choice but to comfort Zhou Wan'er with a smile.

Hmm, choked nose?This stuff is choking.These days, Chongzhen Emperor Yang Reform, who had been thinking about how to fight wild boar skin, had a light in his heart. Since this chili can choke a man's nose, it must also be able to choke a horse's nose.

If I burn this dried chili on the battlefield and throw it into the enemy's cavalry, the horse will not choke to death if it inhales the spicy gas?In that way, without the horse, wouldn't the cavalry become infantry?By the way, people will choke too.Doesn't that mean...

Yang Reform himself had the experience of being choked. Once he overcooked a dish while cooking, and the chili smoke came up. After being inhaled, Yang Reform sneezed a few times, and then his nose and eyes were extremely hot, and he bled. Tears, runny nose, my whole body was limp, as if my lungs had been coughed out. It was quite hard work and uncomfortable. After washing with water for a long time, I was relieved.

If I use this dried chili on the battlefield, those barbarians who don't know where they are, won't be choked to death?Then his own soldiers wore masks and walked over calmly...

Thinking of this, Chongzhen Emperor Yang Reform happily shouted "Yes!" The people around, including the empress, stared at the emperor inexplicably, not knowing what was wrong with the emperor.so out of order.

The more he thought about it, the more complacent he became, "Hehe, hehehe,...haha, hehe..." Yang Reform couldn't help laughing, imagining that when he was fighting wild boar skin, he would use a trebuchet to throw a lot of dried chili packages at the enemy In the camp of the wild boar skin, the wild boar skin was choked to death, and his own soldiers rushed to the camp of the wild boar skin wearing masks, and the war was over.I, the traverser, won the war in a way that the enemy did not expect, and since then, I have become an emperor through the ages.In this way, I don't need to raise salary with great fanfare, and become the emperor of salary.It is absolutely possible to use this easy and simple method to kill the wild boar skin. Yang Reform is unconsciously overplaying.

Empress Zhou Wan'er felt that this was really embarrassing, the emperor giggled indiscriminately in front of everyone alone.The queen couldn't bear it, and stepped on Yang Reform's foot to remind the emperor to pay attention to his image.However, Yang Reform was on YY's head, but he didn't feel it, the queen Zhou Wan'er couldn't help it, and stomped her foot hard.

"Ah!..." Emperor Yang Reform, immersed in YY and unable to extricate himself, let out a "miserable" scream. The surrounding eunuchs and maids were all amused by the "funny" behavior of the emperor and empress. Turn your head and pretend you didn't see it.

Yang Reform came to his senses, looked at Zhou Wan'er with a bad face, and knew that he had committed the old problem of being a powerful country again.I'm a little embarrassed.

Empress Zhou Wan'er pretended to be angry, ignored Yang Reform, and cast her eyes on Yang Reform.

Yang Reform was bored, so he had no choice but to say to Zheng Huaizhong: "Huaizhong, I really like this chili pepper. I give you a task to plant this kind of pepper on a large scale, do you know?" After YY was over, Yang Reform immediately assigned the task Well, since it might be useful, you have to make full preparations. I don't mind using this "biochemical weapon" of the Ming Dynasty.Maybe on the battlefield, I can rely on it to come back.

Zheng Huaizhong treated the pepper as an ornamental plant, and when he heard that the emperor wanted to plant it in a large area, he immediately fainted. This ornamental object is not Chinese cabbage?
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I don't know how many acres should be planted?" Zheng Huaizhong decided to ask carefully to see how much area the emperor intended to plant.Otherwise, this good thing will turn into a bad thing.

"Here, let's plant a few dozen acres first." Yang Reform said it casually, thinking that dozens of acres should be enough for a war anyway.

Zheng Huaizhong was dizzy again, he planted tens of acres of ornamental objects at a time, even if he gave rewards to the officials, he didn't need so much!
"Your Majesty, I need to plant dozens of acres, and there is not so much land in the palace." Zheng Huaizhong felt that he was really wronged. What he was in charge of was only the palace garden, not this Huangzhuang, and he still had dozens of acres of land for himself to plant. thing.

"No? No way, is the emperor so poor?" Yang Reform wondered, he didn't seem to be at the end of his life, didn't he even have dozens of acres of land?

Wang Chengen couldn't stand it anymore, and came out to play: "Qi Your Majesty, the land in this palace is only planted with ornamental flowers and plants. Only the Huangzhuang outside the city has such a large land for planting."

"Huangzhuang?... Can it be planted?... Then plant it in Huangzhuang." Speaking of Huangzhuang, Yang Reform remembered something, but he couldn't explain it.I felt a little bit of trouble in my heart.But it just passed by in a flash, and I didn't think about it carefully. I got this "biochemical weapon" of the Ming Dynasty today, and when I was happy, I completely forgot all the worries in my heart.

Wang Chengen played again: "Qi Your Majesty, who is responsible for this matter?"

"Of course it is Zheng Huaizhong. He found this chili pepper for me. Of course he planted it. The credit is also his Zheng Huaizhong..." If you have merit, you must be rewarded. This is the basic task of being an emperor. Reward, then who has the enthusiasm to do things for the emperor?Therefore, not only rewards, but also great rewards, let others know that the emperor himself is very wise and generous.

"Your servant obeys." Wang Chengen agreed.

The internal officials and Huangzhuang have always been two different things. Now it is a bit out of line to let the internal officials take care of the affairs of Huangzhuang. Therefore, Wang Chengen is smart about this matter, and he still needs to ask the emperor for an "oral order". It's easy to handle things, and the people below dare not say anything. This is the emperor's intention. If you have any problems, you should go to the emperor.
