In Lin Fei's residence, Li Shiming's eyes were glowing with blue light. His hands kept touching the potatoes, and from time to time, he raised his head to ask if what Lin Fei said was true.
If it weren't for his future wife, Lin Fei would have slapped him twice. How annoying. In less than an hour, he had asked dozens of times.
In the end, Lin Fei had no choice but to threaten,"If you dare to talk nonsense, I'll immediately use all these potatoes to stew beef. Let's see what else you have to ask!”
As he spoke, Lin Fei thought of the deliciousness of the stewed beef with potatoes and swallowed his saliva. He had never eaten stewed beef with potatoes since he came to the Great Tang.
Li Shiming saw Lin Fei swallowing his saliva and was afraid that he would really use these potatoes to stew beef. He quickly shut his mouth and winked at the old eunuch standing at the door.
The old eunuch standing at the door had followed Li Shiming for more than ten years. As long as Li Shiming made a move, he immediately understood what it meant.
Just now, Li Shiming was signaling him to quickly get someone to move these potatoes back to Huanggong Road, in case Lin Fei was greedy and ate them one day.
Seeing Li Shiming's action, the old eunuch immediately went out to let the guards outside move the potatoes back into the palace.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart. The new prince consort had the emperor under his thumb.
The two of them had never seen the Emperor win before. Although the new Prince Consort was sensible and didn't push his luck, before the new Prince Consort appeared, who would have the chance to push his luck!
However, this had nothing to do with him. As a eunuch, he couldn't guess who the two immortals were. He just had to do his job.
The old eunuch left, but Lin Fei did not care. He said to Li Shiming indifferently,"You can get someone to move these potatoes back to the palace, but leave a few for me. I'm going to make stewed beef with potatoes.”
Lin Fei didn't give Li Shiming a chance to refute and continued,""This thing isn't as valuable as you think. As long as you Imperial Family disciples hold back your ignorance, in less than two years, this thing of the Great Tang will no longer be a novelty.”
Li Shiming didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he said angrily,"That was two years later. It's different now.”
At this moment, Empress Zhangsun, who had been standing at the side without saying a word, finally spoke up." Stop quarreling, you two. Can't you discuss it properly?”
Then, he said to Lin Fei,"Xiaofei, can you tell me the specific production of this thing?" This way, we can have some common sense.”
Seeing that it was Empress Zhangsun who was asking, Lin Fei's expression immediately changed. He said in a pleasant voice,"I'm not too sure about the specific yield per mu, but it's definitely more than 20 catties, and it can be planted twice a year.”
"What?"
Li Shiming was no longer calm. The potato production was already frighteningly high. If they could grow two crops a year, it would be too scary.
He began to calculate in his heart. If what Lin Fei said was true, then the Great Tang would basically not have a famine for three years, and no one would starve to death for five years.
If these things were to come true, then Li Shimin would become the greatest emperor in history. Even Qin Shihuang and Han Wudi would not be able to compare to him. One had to know that the problem of how to eat had been plaguing the people for thousands of years and had never been solved.
Li Shi Min's heart started to beat faster, and his face turned red.
Lin Fei saw Li Shiming's expression and knew what he was thinking, so he began to attack,"How to let the people eat is not a good emperor. How to let the people eat well is a good emperor.”
Li Shiming was shocked by Lin Fei's sudden attack. His face turned pale, then suddenly turned red. The color changed back and forth, just like the change of face in Beijing opera, but the color was a little monotonous.
Just as Li Shi Min was about to get angry, the old eunuch who had just left returned with a large group of guards.
Seeing that the old eunuch had returned, Li Shiming did not have time to argue with Lin Fei. He said to the guards,"Move those potatoes on the ground back to the palace and watch them. If anyone dares to touch these potatoes, chop off their hands for this one.”
However, when he saw Lin Fei standing still, Li Shimin added,"Leave a few for this kid."
Hearing Li Shiming's words, Lin Fei smiled. He won again this time. He didn't know why, but he always felt a sense of accomplishment when he won against Li Shiming. This feeling was very satisfying.
Li Shiming was unhappy when he saw Lin Fei smile. Just as he was about to ask the guards to move all the potatoes back, a eunuch ran in and knelt in front of Li Shiming.
"Reporting to the emperor, there is news from the palace that Yi Country Duke is critically ill and has fainted. The imperial physician has already rushed over.”
"Sigh, Uncle Bao fainted again? Hurry up and take a look."
Qin Shubao had fainted more than once or twice. This was the root of the illness left behind by years of war. It was not easy to get rid of it, and the imperial doctors could not do anything about it.
