" Seventy stones!?"
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di exclaimed in unison.
Their eyes were filled with disbelief and shock. Even Empress Ma, who had been relatively calm, covered her mouth in surprise!
One had to know that the best rice varieties in the Great Ming Dynasty were only three stones per mu, and this was already called auspicious!
This crop called potatoes could actually produce 70 dan per mu, which was a tenfold increase!
If these potatoes could really land on Da Ming's land, then Da Ming would no longer have to worry about food!
At that time, Great Ming had potatoes as food support, enough to feed a population dozens of times that of the present. The national strength would definitely soar!
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was filled with surprise and excitement. He wished he could take this potato on the other side of the world for himself right now!
But at this moment,
The little loli spoke again,"Father also said that there are two crops there that can produce dozens of stones per mu. One is called sweet potato, and the other is called corn.”
"Moreover, the sweet potatoes can also be planted in the extremely cold places in the north. The price is that they will consume the fertility of the soil.”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's eyes were completely red!
Compared to starving to death, consuming some of the soil's fertility was nothing.
Moreover, they were also clear about this. Long-term monoculture would make the land barren, but this could be solved by rotating the crops!
If he could have these three crops that were comparable to divine items, the Great Ming would definitely rise in this vast world and become a huge and powerful empire!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was also worried that such a good crop would have been occupied by the powerful foreign races.
With the support of such crops, the Outsiders might even be stronger than the Great Ming!
It would not be easy to obtain these three crops from them.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not give up. On the contrary, he was extremely determined because he had to obtain such miraculous crops even if he had to start a war!
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression froze and he quickly asked,"Nan Nan, why is there no written record of this area that you're pointing at? Which empire did it belong to?”
On the map, he saw records of the Ming Dynasty, Northern Yuan, Wei Nu Kingdom, and so on. However, the area that the little loli pointed to had no written records, which made Zhu Yuanzhang uncertain.
The little loli rubbed her little head and explained,""Not only are there those three crops, but there is also gold everywhere. We can even use gold to build a city. There are also large amounts of mineral resources. However, there were no established forces in this place. There were only tribes and barbarians.”
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di's eyes shone with a green light like that of a vicious wolf!
The two of them were even more excited!
Such a precious land with rich resources and abundant products, yet no one was going to rule and manage it!
It was just a primitive tribe with some savages. In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, they were like fish on a chopping board. They could only be slaughtered by them!
Zhu Di wished that he could go to America and plunder!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang was still calm. He looked at the map and fell into deep thought.
Naturally, he was also filled with desire for the potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, and gold. However, although he knew now, it was very difficult to obtain them!
Because the distance to this treasure land was simply terrifying, and there was such a vast sea in between!
If one wanted to go there from Da Ming, they would have to open up a sea route. This involved too many things, such as pirates plundering at sea, changing weather, taxes, and so on...
Moreover, the crops must have adapted to the local climate and land. They had to be cultivated there and then transported back. This would make it difficult for manpower and resources!
This was a rather troublesome matter. It was not simple at all.
The most immediate difficulty was that shipbuilding required a large amount of money. Now that the Ming Dynasty had just withdrawn from the war, there were many things to be done in the country, and the national treasury was also very empty.
At this time, Da Ming was really very poor. He could not afford to explore, sail, and transport such a long distance!
But at this moment,
The little loli pointed at a place on the map and said,""Father said that the climate here is very good and is conducive to planting crops. It can reach three crops a year!”
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di quickly looked at the map and were shocked!
"Jiaozhi?"
Zhu Di was very shocked and could not help but say.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but be stunned. Although he wasn't familiar with the outside world, he was very familiar with Jiaozhi!
Jiaozhi was an uncivilized and barbaric land where snakes, insects, rats, and ants ran amok!
"Jiaozhi is actually a treasure land?”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked suspiciously.
"Imperial Father, your son did hear about it from a merchant in Jiaozhi in his early years. However, your son thought that the merchant was just bragging at that time.”Zhu Di smiled bitterly.
Hearing the words of his rebellious Fourth Brother, Zhu Yuanzhang was even more convinced.
"Damn it, I can't wait to go and take down Jiaozhi right now!”
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled up his sleeves and said anxiously.
Zhu Di hesitated." Father, isn't Jiaozhi a country that you've decided not to conquer? If we really attack them, wouldn't that be slapping your face?"
Pa!
A crisp sound rang out!
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped Zhu Di's head and said angrily,"Do you have any brains? I didn't fight in the past because there were no benefits. What's a mere face!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely domineering at this moment. A fierce force rushed towards him, just like when he rode a warhorse into battle in the past!
Zhu Di's blood was boiling!
After all, he was not the future emperor yet. He was much more shameless than Zhu Yuanzhang!
However, just as they were looking forward to the future, the little loli said thoughtfully,
"The Land of Jiaozhi can be taken down, but if you want to go to places like America, grandfather, you have to build ships as soon as possible. After all, I seem to have heard from the black shadow generals that they were interested and wanted to conquer the monkey and offer it to father!”
"And don't worry too much about sailing on the sea. The Water Demon Bazaar is also under father's command. She will protect Da Ming's fleet and calm all the waves!”
Shadow General!
The Water Demon that controlled the sea!
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately became anxious.
If those terrifying existences who controlled the black shadow army really wanted to attack Jiaozhi, then he had to hurry up!
What shocked him even more was that the vast sea was actually under his son's control.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but narrow his eyes.
Before going to Jiaozhi, he had to solve the problem of Northern Yuan!
Otherwise, if Northern Yuan backstabbed him from the north during the conquest of Jiaozhi, then Great Ming would definitely be in trouble. It seemed that everything had to be accelerated!
Zhu Yuanzhang was still thinking about how to deal with Northern Yuan when he saw Zhu Di's greedy expression as he looked at the demonic dragon breathing technique in his hand.
"You can't bite off more than you can chew!"
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but reprimand him. He took back the Demon Ox Body Tempering Art that he had given to Zhu Di!
He continued to lecture," This is a secret item. The original copy should be kept by me. You can make a copy of the Bull Demon Body Tempering Art and leave!"”
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's protective look, Zhu Di was speechless, but he could only accept it silently.
He could only comfort himself in his heart. It was already a very good result to be able to get a copy!
Seeing this, the little loli laughed and laughed secretly. In fact, there was nothing that the black shadow general was interested in Jiaozhi. This was all deliberately led by her.
If it was really the black shadow army that had descended, the entire world might fall into the ultimate darkness, and everything would die!
The reason why she said this was because she wanted her grandfather to move against Jiaozhi as soon as possible!
This was because her father had told her in the dream world before,
She said she didn't like Jiaozhi.
