Night!
After dinner, Li Lizhi had to return to the palace. Otherwise, when the curfew came, even if Li Lizhi was Li Shimin's daughter, she would not be reprimanded!
The nannies brought Li Lizhi home. As for Li Yi, he didn't need to clean up the table. The leftovers were cleaned up.
A few chefs were in the kitchen, wolfing down the remaining food. They felt that this was the most delicious dish in the world. What kind of food were they making? They were even more grateful to Li Yi because Li Yi was teaching them how to make such food. When Li Yi was cooking, they were watching from the side!
"It's about time…Next, we'll just have to wait for Li Shiming to come!”
In the bedroom, Li Yi took out his laptop. If a modern person was around, they would notice that there was a proposal on the page of Li Yi's laptop!
Although Li Lizhi's arrival was not within Li Yi's expectations, it was a perfect opportunity to become a messenger.
However, this was not considered using his little disciple. After all, even if Li Lizhi did not spread the news, the Hundred Cavalry Guards would have to spread the news. If the Hundred Cavalry Guards did not spread the news, someone in the family would definitely pass the news to Li Yi.
……
Eastern Palace!
"Is it really delicious?"
Li Shiming looked at his eldest daughter in surprise. Li Lizhi had been educated by the royal family since she was young, which meant that she could control her emotions very well. But now, his daughter was dancing in front of him happily.
"Yes, yes, it's delicious. Master made prawns, potato roast chicken, mutton skewers, and tomato egg soup for me!”
Li Lizhi was so happy that her big eyes curved into crescents as she huddled in her mother's arms. Empress Zhangsun looked at her eldest daughter lovingly. Since she was born, the little girl had been in poor health. In addition to the changes in the Black Tortoise Sect a few days ago, the little girl more or less understood a little, so she was a little depressed.
However, after a visit to Li Yi's house, he actually became lively!
"Master also introduced me to many animals. Father, it turns out that the big white bird is called the White Pheasant, and there is also a chicken with a red belly called the Red Belly Golden Pheasant. That big tiger is called the South China Tiger. Master said that this is not the biggest tiger in the world. The biggest tiger is in Goguryeo, and it is called the Manchurian Tiger.”
Li Lizhi gestured with her hands, but she couldn't tell how big the Amur Tiger was.
" There's also an elephant. This is Lizhi's first time seeing an elephant. Benben even played with Lizhi for a long time. Benben's nose is so long that it can roll Lizhi up. It's really tall…"
Perhaps it was because of Li Yi's influence, but the little girl's words had all become plain. Like a real child, she could not wait to tell her parents everything she had seen today.
Li Shiming and Zhangsun Wugou looked at Li Lizhi lovingly. Then, Li Shiming asked,""Lizhi, do you know what those potatoes and tomatoes are?”
"Master said that potatoes are grain seeds and can yield a thousand catties per mu. They are both grain and vegetables. Father, potatoes are delicious and soft!”
Li Lizhi's eyes widened as she recalled the question about the roast chicken with potatoes. She couldn't help but swallow another mouthful of saliva!
"Really? A thousand catties per mu?"
Li Shiming stood up and looked at Li Lizhi in disbelief. Li Lizhi was shocked and her lively expression was instantly hidden. If Li Yi saw this, he would definitely scold Li Shiming. What kind of skill was scaring a child!
"M-Master said so. Lizhi didn't lie!”
Li Lizhi suddenly felt wronged. She thought that her father was doubting the authenticity of her words. She was suddenly afraid and anxious. She wanted to defend her master, but she was afraid of Li Shiming.
"Your Highness, you scared Lizhi!"
Zhangsun Wugou frowned at Li Shiming. Li Shiming quickly reacted and clumsily began to comfort his daughter. It had to be said that Li Shiming was really not a qualified father!
"Master also said that tomatoes are a kind of vegetable. They are both vegetables and fruits. He even brought one back for Lizhi to eat. Lizhi gave it to Father!”
The granny at the side immediately served the tomatoes. Looking at the bright red tomatoes, Zhangsun Wugou fell in love with them at first glance. After smelling them, the tomatoes had a special taste. The sweet and sour feeling immediately made Zhangsun Wugou's appetite increase!
"Langjun said that after washing it with water, it can be eaten whole!”
The granny said respectfully. Zhangsun Wugou nodded."Then wash it with clean water and cut it open!”
She pinched the tomato just now and found that it was soft inside, but the fruit was firm. It should be able to be cut open!
"Here!"
Soon, the tomatoes were cut open. Li Lizhi was still talking about what she had seen today. When she heard that all the animals were very obedient in Li Yi's hands, Li Shimin nodded in his heart. Just based on this ability, Li Yi was guaranteed to be safe.
When he heard that Li Yi had brought back a high-yield grain, he was in a hurry and didn't bring back much. He only brought back Benben, so he just wanted to let Li Shiming have a taste. Li Shiming couldn't sit still anymore!
He wished he could go to Li Yi's house immediately and see the immortal grain that could produce 500 kilograms per mu!
A thousand jin!
The yield of wheat and corn in the Great Tang was less than a hundred catties per mu. Five hundred catties could be directly used as a sacrifice to the heavens.
However, according to Li Lizhi, the immortal grain that Li Yi brought over could be easily planted and the yield per mu was more than wheat and corn.
Li Shi Min couldn't sit still anymore!
Right now, although the fields were in the hands of the Great Tang, the majority of the grain was in the hands of the aristocratic families. The Great Tang only collected a grain tax, but once Li Shiming ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, the grain tax would also be reduced, and the Great Tang would receive even less grain!
But could the commoners really pay less food?
No, the great clans would do everything they could to take the extra grain and put it into their own pockets. Thus, a yield of one thousand jin per mu was of strategic importance in the Great Tang.
Wasn't it the same when the modern world was just founded?
He was starving after cultivating the grain seeds with all his might!
Why was it said that the Chinese were an empire of foodies?
One of the main reasons was that he was really afraid of hunger. After starving for thousands of years, he had eaten everything that could be eaten. As for those that could not be eaten, he had thought of a way to eat them.
Hungry!
After the food became abundant, the variety of dishes increased explosively. Therefore, food was always the number one food in China!
