When he heard that Li Shimin wanted money from him, how could Li Yin have the money to give him? The amusement park he wanted to build required a large piece of land. The money to buy a house and land was not enough!‘Suburbs 'land was cheap, but he couldn't build the amusement park in the suburbs, right?
"Imperial Father, you have to think carefully. If you ask me for money this time, in the future, if you want anything good from me, you have to use money to buy it!”Li Yin said.
Li Shiming heard this and slammed the table." You brat! How dare you talk to me like that! I'll beat you up!"”
When Empress Zhangsun saw this, she quickly grabbed Li Shimin, afraid that Li Shimin would really beat Li Yin up.
"Beat him up as you wish! Anyway, he didn't have any money! I have already bought a house with my money. Who asked you to not even give me a house when I moved out of the palace? You even had to buy a house yourself. Have you ever seen a prince as shabby as me?”
"Say that again? Do you believe that I will take back your manor? Such a big manor was much more expensive than any house in Chang 'an.”
"Take it back. It just so happens that I have nothing to do with it!”
"You want to get rid of that manor, but I won't take it back!" Li Shi Min sneered. What a coincidence. Mister Kong Yingda mentioned you to me yesterday. He said that he wanted to test your homework. If you didn't pass, you would have to return to the palace to study with the other princes and princesses. Do you think I would agree?”
Alright, Li Shiming's move was precisely aimed at Li Yin's life. If he had to study the Four Books and Five Classics all day, he might as well have Li Shiming beat him up!
"You can pay back the money, but you have to pay in installments! 200 taels a month, paid off in a year!”
Li Shimin was stunned when he heard Li Yin say that he wanted to pay back the money. Although two or three thousand taels of silver was not a small amount, he was an emperor. He would not rack his brains over such a small amount of money. He was basically aware of Li Yin's actions. He knew that Li Yin was short of money now! He just wanted Li Yin to plant potatoes obediently, so he used words to pressure Li Yin first.
Speaking of which, the main reason was that Li Yin had given Li Shimin too much hope. Li Shimin was worried. If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't know how to plant, he would have personally planted the potatoes! Li Yin did not do such a big thing, but pondered over these things all day long. It was not surprising that he was angry. Niu Jinda sent two waves of people to report to him almost every day, wanting him to send Li Yin back.
According to Li Yin, this thing came from tens of thousands of miles away. In other words, there definitely wouldn't be a lot of it. Once something went wrong with the planting, and he sent people to tens of thousands of miles away to find the seeds, he might not be able to come back for eight to ten years!
Empress Zhangsun knew that Li Shimin couldn't put down his pride, so she could only step forward and say to Li,""Yin 'er, I heard about the potato you mentioned. If you don't keep an eye on it, won't something go wrong?”
"It's fine. In another month or two…" Li Yin said indifferently."I'll go over in another eight to ten days. Then, I'll come back when the potatoes are officially planted in the soil!”
"Yin 'er, you're a sensible person now, so I shouldn't criticize your methods. However, this potato planting concerns the country of the Great Tang, so we can't be careless. "How about this? I'll get someone to inform the Education Department. They're all for our own use. Why should we talk about money?"”Empress Zhangsun's meaning was obvious. If you go back to plant potatoes, you don't need the money.
Obviously, Empress Zhangsun's enticement was much better than Li Shimin's coercion.
Li Yin sighed and said helplessly,"Alright, I'll go plant potatoes tomorrow!”
"You should have done it earlier!" Li Shi Min snorted coldly. Oh right, there's one more thing. I feel that the name 'potato' is a little old-fashioned. If it can really produce fifteen stones per mu after verification, I will personally give it a name. I've already thought of a name. It'll be called Dragon Bean!”
The name 'potato' was a little old-fashioned? Li Yin deeply agreed. His name had the word 'rustic'. How could he not be rustic?
The next morning, the sky was still dark! Li Yin was woken up by the four eunuchs sent by Li Shimin yesterday. Li Shimin's trusted eunuch, Wang De 'an, personally led the team to remind him that it was time to plant potatoes.
Li Yin dilly-dallied for more than an hour. He really couldn't stand Wang De 'an and could only get up in a daze.
After a simple meal, Li Yin asked Xiang 'er to call over the educated and unmarried women who had been brought back from the Education Department yesterday.
When he heard that Li Yin wanted to bring fifty or sixty women with him, Wang De 'an was a little stunned." Your Highness, isn't this a little too many people?”
"Old Wang, you should know what we are going to do from my father, right? Although men were capable of planting, men only knew how to do it recklessly. They were not as meticulous as women. Such an important thing had to be served by a woman. We have to wait!"
Old Wang…Wang De 'an felt a little weird being called that for the first time!
" But..." Wang De 'an wanted to say that even if he wanted to find a woman, he didn't need to let these young ladies from the families of former criminals go, right? What did they know? Moreover, what if these people had malicious intentions and deliberately killed a few of them?
"No buts, it's settled! Let the carriage go!"
After arriving at Evergreen Valley, Li Yin took a symbolic look at the potatoes that were growing seedlings. In fact, there was nothing to look at. These potatoes were all new potatoes. It would take about half a month for them to germinate, but there was no movement at all.
"Your Highness, how is it? In fact, Niu Jinda was anxious because the potatoes didn't move.
Li waved his hand and said,"It's fine. It's normal. Didn't I say it before?" They would germinate in a few more days. He got someone to take care of him diligently and watered him twice a day, not too much each time. General Niu also needs to rest more!”
"Don't worry, I can handle it!" Only then did Niu Jinda heave a sigh of relief. Li Yin wasn't here. He was under a lot of pressure!
His thoughts were similar to Wang De 'an's. When he saw these women brought by Li Yin, he knew that they had never done farm work before. He was determined not to let them get within 20 steps of the vegetable field!
This time, Li Yin wasn't as bored as last time. The next day, he got a wooden board and found a few pieces of charcoal. He called a total of 60 women, including Xiang 'er, together and divided them into six rows, with exactly ten people in each row.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:011720194:50PM
