Zhu Yuanzhang quickly left the capital in a carriage.
"Biao Er, how many high-yield crops do you think the expert has?”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked expectantly.
"Imperial Father, this son feels that if there is another divine item like a potato, then the heavens will bless me, Da Ming!!”
Zhu Biao said with a smile.
For example, potatoes could produce several thousand catties per mu and could be used as a staple food.
To be able to have one more, it was definitely a blessing for Ming!
"Yes!"
"Hahaha, it would be great if that expert had enough potatoes. In that case, after we nurture those scholars, we can immediately send them to the countryside!”
Zhu Yuanzhang only had 100 catties of potatoes in his hands.
It would take several years to collect enough potatoes and then slowly promote them to all parts of the country.
Only then would he be able to assign those scholars.
Only then could the township official system be implemented.
However, if he could get enough potatoes from Lin Ziyun…
Then he wouldn't have to wait for years.
As long as he gave those scholars some farming knowledge, he could send them all to the countryside!
Lin Zi Yun's suggestion could be quickly implemented!!
"Father, I feel that Master Lin will definitely not disappoint you!”
"And those potatoes, although Grandmaster said they originated from overseas, I've never heard the merchant mention them.”
"This child feels that these potatoes must have been brought down from the sky by Grandmaster!!”
Zhu Biao said firmly.
In the feudal era, even he, the crown prince, was superstitious.
Moreover, Lin Ziyun had taken out a potato.
Now, they could produce high-yield crops that were no less than potatoes.
These were all brought in from overseas.
Zhu Biao really didn't believe it!
"Yes, Master is unfathomable and can predict things like a god. He will definitely help us!”
Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded vigorously.
He trusted Lin Zi Yun's abilities!
Then, he was filled with anticipation.
They took the carriage to the suburbs.
" Eh?!"
"Imperial Father, look! There are so many potato sprouts outside!"
Zhu Biao suddenly shouted.
Zhu Yuanzhang quickly lifted the curtain and saw a shocking scene.
The fields were covered with green potato seedlings.
At a glance, it was like an ocean!!
"This, this, this!"
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth wide.
He was so shocked that he was tongue-tied!
Potato was originally regarded as the foundation of the country by Zhu Yuanzhang.
The matter of planting potatoes was also strictly confidential.
Hence, the commandants who were responsible for protecting Lin Zi Yun did not recognize potatoes.
Therefore, he did not report the situation here.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not know that Lin Zi Yun had planted so many potatoes.
Now that he saw the scene in front of him, he was really shocked!
"Father, there are at least a few hundred potatoes here, right?!!”
Zhu Biao's eyes lit up.
All he could see were potato sprouts.
A rough estimate was definitely no less than a few hundred!
"Right, haha, Master really calculated that we needed potatoes, so he planted so many!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was touched.
He believed that Lin Zi Yun had planted so many potatoes for him, for the sake of the Ming Empire.
She felt that although Lin Ziyun was not in the court, he was always thinking for Ming.
He was really the pillar of the country!
"Father, look, what is that?”
Zhu Biao suddenly pointed forward.
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately looked over and saw that in the field in front of him, there was a large area of crops that were much shorter than potato seedlings.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't recognize these crops at all and was surprised.
He even stopped the carriage.
After receiving Zhu Yuanzhang's instructions, Chang Le, who was driving the carriage, jumped off the carriage and went to the field to pull out a plant.
"Your Majesty, this seems to be a potato too. Yes, a red-skinned potato!”
Chang Le sent the sweet potatoes that he had dug out to the carriage.
"Imperial Father, this might be the crops that the master mentioned. The yield per mu is no less than potatoes, right?!”
Zhu Biao said immediately when he saw seven sweet potatoes hanging under a plant.
"Yes!"
Zhu Yuanzhang held the heavy sweet potato in his hand.
His eyes lit up.
"Biao, I think this red-skinned potato and that potato are like wheat and rice. Although they look similar, they are completely different things.”
"I just don't know how different the taste of the two is.”
Zhu Yuanzhang wiped the sweet potato in his hand with his sleeve and opened his mouth to bite it.
Zhu Biao quickly stopped him.
"Imperial Father, your dragon body is more important. You can't eat raw food. Let Chang Le do the tasting!”
Zhu Biao hurriedly extended a sweet potato out of the carriage.
Chang Le, who was driving the carriage, naturally overheard the conversation between Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang.
Without a word, he opened his mouth and took a big bite of the sweet potato.
"Wu wu!"
"Hard! Sweet! Your Majesty, it's much more delicious than raw potatoes!”
Chang Le said with shining eyes as he chewed on the sweet potato.
In the entire Ming Dynasty, sweets were a luxury.
Only the rich and powerful had the right to enjoy it.
This sweet potato actually had a very sweet taste when chewed.
It was indeed much more delicious than the raw potatoes!
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face immediately bloomed with smiles.
"There seem to be a few hundred of these red-skinned potatoes.”
"In the future, let those scholars promote this red-skinned potato as well!!”
Zhu Biao nodded vigorously.
At this moment, Chang Le, who was driving the carriage, suddenly exclaimed,""Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, there seems to be new crops appearing in front of us!”
"Ah?"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked out of the carriage.
He saw rows of corn stalks that were more than two meters tall in the fields not far away.
The corns were already ripe, but they were tightly wrapped in leaves. Yellow-white ears fell from them.
"What, what kind of crops are these?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was very surprised.
The shape of this corn was very different from potatoes and sweet potatoes.
He was confused.
Zhu Biao was also very puzzled.
The two of them did not stop the carriage this time.
The carriage passed through the cornfield.
Then, what entered Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's eyes was a large area of golden rice!
"How can there be so many ears of rice?!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was dumbfounded.
Rice was the most common crop in the south.
The commoners relied on it to feed themselves.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very familiar with rice.
However, the rice in front of him had many more ears than the rice in his memory!
Because the ears of rice were too heavy, every stalk of rice bent down, as if they could not bear the burden!!
This scene deeply shocked Zhu Yuanzhang.
After passing through this paddy field, Zhu Yuanzhang saw another patch of potato seedlings.
Then came the sweet potato seedlings, the corn forest, and the rice fields.
This repeated three times.
When Zhu Yuanzhang's mind was already blank from the repeated shocks.
The carriage finally stopped in front of the straw hut.
