Inside the hall,
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao wolfed down the roasted potatoes and sweet potatoes!
Zhu Zhen even thoughtfully served them a plate of sauce!
Then, he said to Little Treasure, who was trembling beside him,
"Go, roast some more!
Oh right, boil some water too.
Get a few raw sweet potatoes!"
"Yes, master, I understand!"
His personal eunuch, Xiao Bao, quickly went to prepare!
Gulp! Gulp!
Zhu Yuanzhang finished a roasted sweet potato and took a sip of tea.
Just as he was about to take the last roasted sweet potato on the table,
In the end, she collided with Zhu Biao's hand.
Zhu Biao retracted his palm in embarrassment!
Then, his eyes lit up as he looked at Zhu Zhen.
Zhu Yuanzhang peeled off the peeled sweet potato with satisfaction and continued to take a bite.
He also looked at Zhu Zhen in surprise!
"Sixth Brother, what you said just now is true!
Could these two things really produce 4,000 catties per mu?？”
Zhu Yuanzhang raised the sweet potato and looked at Zhu Zhen expectantly.
Zhu Zhen shook his head.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang's expressions changed,
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to flare up again and let Zhu Zhen, this unfilial son, experience the love of an old father!
However, Zhu Zhen's next sentence almost made Zhu Yuanzhang cry!
"4,000 catties is just the starting point. 7,000 catties or even 8,000 catties are not a problem!
If they encountered suitable land, such as Yunnan, Xi'an, or Taiyuan,
The yield per mu could reach more than 7,000 catties, or even 10,000 catties!”
"Gulp!"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao swallowed their saliva.
He revealed an expression that said,'I haven't seen the world, don't lie to me!'
"It's…it's true!"
Zhu Biao's body trembled as he asked,
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes also revealed an unprecedented strange light!
Zhu Zhen nodded." Of course!
If you don't believe me, you can go and see the total yield of the five mu of land I planted later!”
Zhu Biao was stunned." You planted five mu? Isn't there only the area outside?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was also stunned. He thought that Zhu Zhen was illiterate!
There was at most one Mu of land in this courtyard!
Zhu Zhen scratched his head and said with a smile,
"That, Imperial Father, don't be angry!”
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand." Tell me quickly!"
Zhu Zhen heaved a sigh of relief and said directly,
"In this area, as long as there's no one living in the courtyard, I've planted sweet potatoes and potatoes.
There were also cassava, yacon, peanuts, and tomatoes that were not ripe yet.
I planted the most potatoes and sweet potatoes, about five mu!”
Crack!
The sweet potato in Zhu Yuanzhang's hand fell onto the plate.
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his voice." You're farming an empty courtyard!？”
Zhu Biao's mouth was wide open!
This younger brother of his often skipped classes with Ling. Could it be that he was here to farm?
Zhu Zhen nodded reservedly." Yes!”
Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He looked like he was crying, but he did not know what to say!
He could only stand up and pick up all the sweet potato granules that had fallen on his clothes and throw them into his mouth.
"Let's go and see how the digging is going!”
Zhu Biao and Zhu Zhen followed.
Just after Zhu Zhen confessed,
He asked the eunuchs, maids, and guards in the palace to start digging the ripe sweet potatoes and potatoes!
They should be done digging by now!
Very soon,
Zhu Yuanzhang came to the courtyard and looked at the busy ground.
Feeling a little emotional, he looked at the potatoes piled beside him!
He turned to look at Zhu Zhen." Sixth Brother, are there only potatoes in this field?”
Zhu Zhen nodded." The sweet potatoes are next door!”
The corner of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth twitched.
He had only kept a small plot of land for himself!
In the end, the Eastern Palace was almost turned into farmland by Zhu Zhen!
However, his eyes were still filled with relief!
A moment later!
All the potatoes and sweet potatoes planted in the four courtyards were dug out!
The palace maids and eunuchs were so tired that they were panting!
Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, was circling the sweet potatoes and potatoes on the ground with tears in his eyes!
He looked at it over and over again, touching it from time to time!
"Wang Jinghong!"
"This servant is here!"
"Have you weighed it? How many catties are there in total?"
Wang Jinghong hurriedly checked and reported the data he had just recorded.
"Your Majesty, there are a total of 12,200 catties of sweet potatoes.
They planted a total of two acres of land, and each acre of land had an average of 6,100 catties!”
"There are a total of 18,000 catties of potatoes!
They planted three mu of land, and each mu of land had an average of 6,000 jin!”
As he spoke, Wang Jinghong's lips trembled!
He was born as a farmer and knew what 6,000 catties per mu meant!
That meant that one mu of land could feed several families for a year!
This made him extremely excited!
Boom!
Everyone felt as if they were dreaming when they heard this.
There really was a grain that could produce 6,000 catties per mu in the world!？
Moreover, everyone had tasted it just now. The roasted sweet potatoes were very delicious.
Although the potatoes were not that sweet, one was enough to fill their stomachs!
Zhu Biao grabbed Zhu Zhen's shoulder excitedly.
"Sixth brother, it's true, it's actually true.
You didn't lie to us!"
Zhu Zhen smiled brightly.
"This is what I want to give big brother a surprise. Is this a surprise enough?”
"You're my good brother!" Zhu Biao nodded hurriedly.”
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang had already calmed down the violent fluctuations in his heart.
He turned around and looked at Zhu Zhen seriously. Suddenly, under everyone's shocked gazes,
Zhu Yuanzhang bowed to Zhu Zhen.
"I, Zhu Yuanzhang, thank you, Zhu Zhen, on behalf of all the people in the world!”
Zhu Biao also cupped his fists and bowed.
"I, Zhu Biao, also thank you for everything you have done for the people of the world!”
The remaining palace maids and eunuchs knelt down in unison!
Zhu Zhen was at a loss and hurriedly pulled Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao up.
"What are you doing? We're all family,
And all the people in the world are the people of my Zhu family.
If I do something for the people of the world, it's also for my Zhu family!
Father, brother, what are you doing!”
Zhu Yuanzhang instantly raised his head and looked at Zhu Zhen, his eyes extremely bright.
"Good child, you're indeed the son of my Zhu family. I like hearing your words!”
Zhu Biao also refreshed his impression of Zhu Zhen.
"Sixth Brother, you have made great contributions this time. You have found a way for the commoners to live!”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in agreement. He grabbed Zhu Zhen's hand and patted his head lovingly!
It felt like it had been a long time since he wiped his son's head like this. It felt so good!
Zhu Zhen blinked and smiled." This is the way I found for Big Brother and the people of the world!”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Zhen in surprise and burst out laughing.
Zhu Biao also understood what Zhu Zhen meant.
He was actually unwilling to take credit and wanted to give this credit to him, the Crown Prince!
Where else could he find such a good brother?
Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Zhen's head." Boss, you have a good brother!”
Zhu Biao also smiled brightly." Father also has a good son!”
"Haha, right, right. You have a good brother, and I have a good son!”
Thus, the three of them stood in the muddy courtyard and laughed loudly!
Suddenly, Zhu Biao thought of something.
There was a strange tone in his voice.
"Should we ask Uncle Xu to go to the palace?”
Zhu Zhen nodded." That's what I'm thinking!"
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed heartily." Pass down the imperial decree. Summon Xu Da to the palace to meet the Emperor!”
Soon, the imperial guards headed towards the Duke of Wei's estate!
