After lunch, the civil and military officials all went to their respective positions. Even Cao Cao himself did not stay idle and went to the farmland to inspect the situation.
"What do you think should be rewarded to the abstruse immortal?”
The method of drawing men to make up for taxes had begun to be implemented. It would still take several months to see the real effect.
However, dividing Liu Lu and flooding Xiapi were all real contributions.
If he only rewarded two captives, others would laugh at him for being petty.
"Prime Minister, although Guo Xuanxian has contributed greatly, he has also made many mistakes.”
Xun You followed behind Cao Cao and said slowly,""Putting aside the fact that he ignored the Prime Minister's order to leave early during the military meeting in the main hall, he actually brought General Xu Chu to Jianye after the battle of Xu Prefecture. He was simply acting recklessly and without any rules!”
"Hehe, abstruse immortals are young, it's normal for them to be straightforward.”
Cao Cao stepped back and sat down on the muddy ground. He smiled in admiration and said,"Didn't abstruse immortals go to Jianye to bring back a general? Do you know his identity?"
"I'm checking."
Xun You thought for a moment and replied,"But this person is very unfamiliar. He doesn't match the famous generals in the world. I don't think he's a talented person."”
"Gongda, you can't compare to me in this aspect.”
Cao Cao stroked his mustache and smiled,""If he was really an ordinary person, why would the Mystic Immortal leave two peerless beauties and rush to Jianye?”
"If that's the case, why didn't Guo Xuanxian introduce him to the Prime Minister?”
Xun You frowned and asked.
Cao Cao's eyes rolled, but he did not answer this question.
At this moment, a thunderous voice sounded from afar."My lord, my lord!"
Cao Cao turned his head to look and was instantly enraged."Xu Chu, how can you get so drunk when the sun is in the middle of the sky? I really shouldn't have forgiven you for leaving your post without permission. Go and receive twenty strokes of the rod.”
[Xu Chu: (^)
Am I f * cking sending my head away?]
"My lord, Zhongkang drank for a reason!" Xu Chu had an idea.”
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and laughed,""Tell me, Xu Zhongkang, what other strange reason do you have for drinking?”
"My lord, think about it. What did I bring back when I was drunk last time?”
As Xu Chu spoke, he stole a glance at Cao Cao's expression.
At first, he laughed lightly, but then he became more serious. Then, his eyes widened and he laughed."Xu Chu, you're actually playing riddles with me. Tell me quickly, but what new method does the Mystic Immortal have?”
"My lord, you have to get rid of the 20 strokes of the rod first.”
"Alright, alright, alright. It's not a problem to reward you with another wife!”
Cao Cao waved his hand and said casually.
"That one has to have the same figure as me. Please don't be as skinny as the two Mystic Immortals…"
Xun You said,"
Cao Cao,"( )~"Cao
Cao and Xun You walked to a farm under Xu Chu's lead and saw Guo Yun arguing with Cheng Yu."Mystic Immortal, you're simply messing around. This old man has never heard of such a fruit. What if it contains poison?”
"Are you going to take responsibility for delaying the lord's important matters?”
Guo Yun threw the corn into her mouth one by one and chewed it loudly."Come, come, try it?"
Cao
Cao's eyes were burning as he trotted over."Mystic Immortal, what is this?"
"Greetings, Prime Minister."
"My lord…This
isn't the court, so there's no need for such red tape.”
Guo Yun looked at Cao Cao's muddy appearance and felt a wave of admiration.
It was only the beginning of the new year, and it was not even spring yet. The temperature in Xuchang was still relatively low.
"This thing is called corn."
Guo Yun pointed at the two loads of corn behind her and said,""It's a kind of crop, similar to rice
…"”
Cheng Yu shook his head and lectured in a serious tone,"We're both crops, but this Guo Xuanxian actually wants me to turn over the paddy in the field and plant his corn that I don't know if it's poisonous or not. He's simply acting recklessly…"
"Guo Yun, your wisdom is outstanding and your strategy is shocking. This old man admires you very much, but farming requires a long period of time to accumulate experience. It is not something that can be done by trickery.”
"You don't know what's good for you!"
Xu Chu rolled his eyes at Cheng Yu and said unhappily,"This thing is delicious. It's simply the most delicious dish in the world to make a hotpot with pepper
…"
"Hotpot?"
Cao Cao was dumbfounded. He subconsciously bent down to pick up a few grains of corn and threw them into his mouth.
"Prime Minister, you can't!"
Cheng Yu's face paled when he saw this.
"Xuan Immortal and Zhongkang can eat it, why can't I?”
Cao Cao glanced at him and chewed carefully. Then, he nodded and said,""Yes, it's sweet and has a unique fragrance. It's indeed not bad.”
"It can still satisfy my hunger!"
"Most importantly, corn has very low requirements for the growing environment. With the current temperature, it will bear fruit in about 70 days!”
"Seventy days is more than two months…"
Cao Cao calculated and suddenly froze.
Hiss!
More than two months?
Cao Cao might not believe what others said.
However, Guo Yun was not the kind of person who did not know what to do. She stared at Guo Yun with wide eyes and said,"So, this corn can be harvested twice in half a year?”
