Zhu Yuanzhang felt that something was wrong.
Previously, when Zhu Xiong Ying wanted to obtain the land, he had asked for a full ten Mu.
If Zhu Xiongying was alone, it would be impossible for him to finish planting ten mu of land so quickly.
Even if he had a hundred eunuchs to open up the wasteland for him, it would still take a long time for Zhu Xiongying to finish planting these ten acres of land.
"How much did the eldest grandson plant?"
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head and looked at Eunuch Li.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Highness the eldest grandson of the Emperor…has no guts.”
Eunuch Li hesitated for a moment, but still told the truth.
Zhu Xiongying did not even move his hoe.
"Then what did he do?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was dumbfounded.
Could it be that his eldest grandson had given up before he even started?
His willpower was a little too weak.
"Why didn't you report this earlier?”
Zhu Yuanzhang began to push the blame to Eunuch Li.
"Your Majesty, you said that I don't have to report to you normally. I will only report to you when I start to plant.”
Eunuch Li said bitterly.
"Humph!"
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly." What exactly is our eldest grandson planting?
Rice? Little wheat?"
"Your Majesty, none of them."
Eunuch Li carefully reported,""I asked the young eunuch who worked in the past.
They said they were called…potatoes, corn, and sweet potatoes.
They also said that His Highness said that it was four to five thousand catties of crops per mu and told them to be careful.
However, those eunuchs didn't really believe it.”
"What?"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that the yield per mu was 5,000 catties, his eyes immediately widened.
"Is this true?"
"This servant doesn't know either." "I heard from those eunuchs that potatoes are round and yellow," said Eunuch Li with a wry smile.
The corn was golden in color.
The surface of the sweet potato was red, but the inside was also yellow.
These young eunuchs even said that they were thirsty from work, so His Highness asked them to peel the skin and eat sweet potatoes.”
"How does it taste?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately interested.
He had never heard of these three things before.
If it could really produce four to five thousand catties per mu, and it was a crop.
Then would the people of Ming Dynasty not be full?
One had to know that the wheat planted in the northern part of the Ming Dynasty was only 300 catties per mu.
In the south, the yield of rice was only 500 to 600 catties per mu.
If there was really a crop that could produce 5,000 catties per mu, Zhu Yuanzhang would immediately let the entire Ming Dynasty plant it.
"It tastes sweet and full."
"Those eunuchs ate two sweet potatoes in the field and didn't go back for dinner," Eunuch Li recalled.”
The raw sweet potatoes were indeed edible and tasted pretty good.
But soon, Zhu Yuanzhang denied Eunuch Li's statement.
"Xiong Ying hasn't come into contact with anyone during this period of time. How could he have such a thing?”
Zhu Yuanzhang was also puzzled.
"In a few days, after we finish marking the memorials, we'll go to the imperial garden and take a look.”
"In this short period of time, pay close attention to the movements of the imperial grandson.”
Zhu Yuanzhang muttered a few words and began to review the memorials.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
……
For the next half a month, Zhu Xiong Ying did not go to the imperial garden.
After all, the seeds of these three crops were given by the system.
His vitality was very tenacious.
As for the daily watering and fertilising, he would leave it to the eunuchs.
Half a month later, Zhu Xiong Ying returned to the imperial garden.
The three crops had been harvested. The corn was about ten centimeters tall.
The sweet potato was longer.
Zhu Xiongying looked at the lush green land and was in a good mood.
"Imperial Brother!"
"Royal brother, do you have time?"
Just as Zhu Xiongying was admiring his own rhythm, a tender voice sounded behind him.
It was Zhu Yunyan.
Zhu Yunhao was followed by two palace maids. When he saw Zhu Xiongying, his face was filled with a smile.
However, behind Zhu Yunhao was the annoying Zhu Yunwen.
During this period of time, Zhu Xiongying seemed to have changed into a different person. He didn't want to play such childish games with them at all.
During this period of time, Zhu Yunhao was addicted to primary school textbooks.
Now that Zhu Yunhao ran to the Imperial Garden to look for Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Yunwen also followed him.
"I have time. Is there anything I can do for you?”
Zhu Xiongying was very fond of this younger brother of his.
"Royal brother, look at this question. Why is it solved like this?”
Zhu Yunhao asked in a childish voice.
Zhu Xiongying was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhu Yunhao to be so studious.
He actually liked science very much.
Zhu Xiongying took the paper from Zhu Yunhao and saw the Arabic numbers on it.
In a month, Zhu Yunhao had already figured out all the Arabic numbers.
This could also be considered a gift.
Zhu Xiongying took a look and saw that it was a fourth-grade application question.
Simple addition, multiplication, and division.
However, Zhu Xiongying was still very patient with Zhu Yunhao. He immediately explained the math problem to Zhu Yunhao under the shade of the tree.
After Zhu Xiongying's guidance, Zhu Yunhao quickly understood.
"What are you writing? It's strange."
"Could it be some kind of sorcery?"
A discordant voice appeared behind the two of them.
Zhu Xiongying turned around and saw Zhu Yunwen.
During this time, Zhu Yunwen had been standing behind the two of them and peeking.
However, after looking at it for a long time, he could not understand it at all.
"Zhu Yunwen, is the wound on your face healed?”
Zhu Xiong Ying's face turned cold as he questioned.
"Huh? Yes…Yes." "The swelling just subsided a few days ago."”
Thinking of the injury on her face, Zhu Yunwen was a little afraid.
"Then why are you still nagging here?”
"What?" Zhu Xiongying sneered. Forgetting the pain after the scar healed?
If he mocked her again, would she believe that he would beat her up?”
Zhu Yunwen didn't even dare to reply and turned to run.
He disappeared from the end of the imperial garden.
Not long after Zhu Yunwen left, Zhu Yuanzhang appeared in the imperial garden.
He directly walked up to Zhu Xiong Ying, giving him a fright.
"Grandpa, how come you have the time to come to the imperial garden?”
Zhu Xiong Ying greeted him with a smile.
"I'm here to see how our grandson's land is doing.”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said,"It seems that the crops are growing well!"”
"That's for sure. This imperial garden is a land of dragon jewels, and it's the most suitable place to grow food.”
"Then let me ask, which of these crops were planted by you personally?”
