Carefree Prince In Tang Dynasty
Chapter 595 Champa Rice
"Could it be that this rice is from Champa?" Li Xin looked up at Chen Xiao and asked slowly, "from Champa?"
Seeing Li Xin explain the origin of the rice, Chen Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and said, "Exactly."
Having received the affirmation, Li Xin's gaze became even hotter. Looking at the small handful of rice in his hand, he seemed to be looking at an entire golden mountain. In a sense, this is indeed a golden mountain.
In fact, Li Xin was not born in agriculture, and if he just judged the shape with the naked eye, he would not be able to see any other information other than knowing that the handful in his hand was rice. However, he still has a pretty smart brain after all.
If you think about it with your toes, it's impossible for Chen Xiao to just grab a handful of rice and treat it as Chen Youlan's wedding gift, right? That would really be a mess, it's better not to come.
Since Chen Xiao was so persistent in attending Chen Youlan's wedding as agreed and wishing her and Li Xin well, it was absolutely impossible for him to do such a messy operation. The small bag of rice in his arms must have a special purpose.
So, Li Xin immediately thought of two words: "good breed".
Contact Chen Xiao has been stationed in the south, very close to Vietnam in the Indochina Peninsula. This information was combined in Li Xin's mind and quickly converted into two words: Zhancheng.
Champa is a small country in Southeast Asia. It itself doesn't have much to note. At most, it's just one or two occasional frictions with Datang on the southern border of Datang. There are more losses than victories.
However, although Champa is a small country, there is one treasure, that is Champa Rice.
Nowadays, the rice grown in Datang can only be harvested once a year, and the yield is not high. But Champa rice is different. In the warm climate in the south, it can even be ripened twice a year and three times every two years, and the grains are full. The yield is much higher than that of the rice varieties widely planted in Datang.
Li Xin had long wanted to get some Champa rice in the past, but he had no chance—the people in Champa were not stupid, and the leakage of seeds was strictly prohibited.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xiao found a way to get this treasure.
Li Xin was a little excited.
It can only be said that God is fair. On the fertile and fertile soil of China, God created the industrious and down-to-earth Chinese nation, but did not give them enough good crops. China's native food crops, whether it is rice or wheat, have very large defects in yield.
Not to mention the long and filling crops such as corn and potatoes, which have been grown in the remote American continent since the beginning and are controlled by the Indians.
How about there is a joke in later generations called "God Bless America"? The geography, climate, and resources of the American continent are all uniquely endowed. Large tracts of plains can be reclaimed at will, and they can be fertile land. If you sprinkle a handful of seeds, you can grow crops by yourself without much care, so that people can eat enough. full.
In contrast, although Huaxia also has excellent farmland, it is very scattered and not concentrated enough. The vast majority of people can only rely on diligent farming in order to obtain living food in the harvest season. In the long history, this way of life has taught the Chinese nation one thing: Only hardworking people can survive.
These two words are deeply rooted in everyone's heart, and finally internalized into the deepest cultural blood of the Chinese people, and also became the most important weapon for the Chinese people to conquer the world.
