Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember it in a second, never lose it!

In the next few days, although Fang Jifan came to Zhan Shifu, he didn't bother to look for Zhu Houzhao. His Royal Highness seemed to be fine. Anyway, he continued to take sick leave and refused to go to Minglun Hall to study.

Regarding the prince's nonsense, Fang Jifan seemed to be a lot more mature after all.

This kind of thing can never be tolerated. If there is a first time, there will be a second time. After Emperor Wen, there were really few lords in Ming Dynasty, who were arrested and beheaded because of bad relationship with the emperor and prince.

What's more, I still have five disciples, my young master has no future, but the disciples will all be officials in the future.

Thinking of this, Fang Jifan continued to eat and sleep with peace of mind.

That night, because the backyard was under construction, and Fang Jinglong had gone to the Tianjin guard camp on behalf of the emperor these days, the bored Fang Jifan went to bed early.

As usual, it was still a good dream. There were many people in the dream. It seemed that the emperor wanted to bestow the princess on him. Fang Jifan in the dream naturally rejected it with righteous and awe-inspiring stern words. Emperor, you are so awesome, marry your daughter to Fang Jifan , I will raise a daughter for you for the rest of my life, so what about the dowry?

What's more, if you marry your daughter, don't you want to be Zhu Houzhao's sister-in-law? Not right, not right, Zhu Houzhao is too bad, I have cut off my righteousness with him, or, change to a brother-in-law, um... Who should I change?

"Old Fang...Old Fang..."

The gloomy voice seemed to approach from far and near, making Fang Jifan's dream start to become horrific. He seemed to see Zhu Houzhao chasing him with a green face and fangs, and then let out a piercing laugh.

"Old Fang...Old Fang...wake up..."

Fang Jifan's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and he was woken up by someone pushing him. He was so frightened that the thick silk quilt was wet with sweat, and he suddenly opened his eyes in the darkness.

"Old Fang, old Fang..."

Fang Jifan's hair stood on end for a moment, your uncle, this is not a dream.

Someone really is pushing themselves with their hands.

Fang Jifan subconsciously shouted: "Come here, there is a ghost."

Kekou took a bite, and was tightly covered by a hand.

woo woo...

Fang Jifan burst into tears, is this the legendary flower picker? But I'm a man, could it be... because of a special hobby?

"Old Fang, it's Bengong...it's Bengong, don't shout, don't shout, let me tell you, the watermelon...the watermelon is ripe...ripe...afraid that my father would know that I left the palace without authorization, Bengong slipped out overnight It’s from the East Palace. That’s why Liu Banban didn’t dare to bring them along. I wanted to come in through the main entrance, but your door dog looked down on people and refused to let you in. I was really mad at you. As a last resort, I had to climb over the wall and come in. , Bengong really searched hard to find you, okay, now let's go and see the melon, the melon is ripe."

Fang Jifan couldn't see Zhu Houzhao's expression in the dark, but...his mood was that of a dog.

"What? Still angry? Old Fang, you are a big man, why are you so stingy? Besides, brothers don't have overnight feuds, get dressed quickly, let's go and see melons." After finishing speaking, Zhu Houzhao dragged Fang Jifan Drag out of bed.

It was still very cold these days, and Fang Jifan couldn't help shivering when he first came into contact with the air-conditioning.

Fang Jifan had no choice but to say to Zhu Houzhao, "Wait, I'll get dressed first, I'll get dressed first..."

In the dark, Fang Jifan fumbled for the old clothes he took off last night, and he was not good at holding the lamp, but suddenly he didn't have Xiao Xiangxiang to dress himself. Turning on the light, seeing Zhu Houzhao wearing a boa robe and looking at him in high spirits, it seemed that because of the previous conflict, he suddenly came to the door now, so he seemed a little embarrassed.

It's no wonder Menzi didn't open the door to inform him, not to mention the middle of the night, Menzi didn't dare to wake himself up in the middle of the night, just said Zhu Houzhao's outfit, how could people think that he was a prince, nine out of ten, they would think him an actor up.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao said impatiently: "What are you still doing in a daze, let's go."

"In the middle of the night?" Fang Jifan was still thinking whether he should forgive this guy.

"Our melons." Zhu Houzhao glanced at Fang Jifan angrily, stomped his feet anxiously and said, "The melons we planted together are now ripe, so you're not surprised at all?"

"..." Fang Jifan was speechless, and sighed, "Your Highness is really too stubborn."

Zhu Houzhao immediately bared his teeth again, and said angrily, "It's obvious that you are stubborn. You don't understand anything. Do you understand the art of war? Do you understand the geography of Guizhou's mountains and rivers? Do you know the strength of the guest army and wolf soldiers transferred to Guizhou?" How? You don't understand anything, and you're even arguing with me."

Fang Jifan pursed his lips and said, "In short, Wang Shi lost."

Zhu Houzhao frowned angrily, and then he smiled: "Stop arguing about this, let's go and see the melons. When the Shijie News comes, it will naturally prove you wrong."

Fang Jifan thought it made sense, so he put on another thick shirt and walked out with Zhu Houzhao.

In the middle of the night, rushing to Zhan Shi's mansion in this cold street, the two of them were riding horses. Although they were wearing heavy clothes, Fang Jifan felt that the weather was very cold, and the houses along the streets and alleys faintly revealed Fang Jifan was a little worried, if he met the officers and soldiers of the Wucheng Army and Ma Si who were watching the night, he was afraid that something bad would happen, and if the matter spread to the palace, he would inevitably be scolded again.

Fortunately, he is here today

Fortunately, there was no one on the way, and he arrived at Zhan Shifu smoothly. Following Zhu Houzhao all the way into the greenhouse, he saw a candle burning slowly inside.

The dozen or so melon seedlings planted before probably produced more than 30 watermelons. In fact, they produced nearly 70 fruits at that time. However, Fang Jifan was afraid that the land would not be fertile enough, so he asked Zhu Houzhao to pick more than 30 watermelons. Come on, Zhu Houzhao yelled for a long time at that time, and Fang Jifan explained several times, telling him that the more fruits the better, a seedling, if there are extra vines, or if it bears too many fruits, the fertility of the land will be affected. Insufficient, but because of insufficient nutrition, there are more melons in the end, but most of them are not too big, and the taste is extremely bad. One seedling has two fruits, and two melons are the limit.

But now, looking at the melons in this field, Fang Jifan took a deep breath, and couldn't help feeling that it was really not easy. At least it proves that the greenhouse is correct for planting in winter. With this experimental field, then...then it can be promoted later. up.

In fact, in this era, it is not that there is no planting similar to greenhouses in winter. For example, as early as the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there are records of growing vegetables near hot springs, and even cucumbers in greenhouses have long been recorded.

But... it doesn't make much sense to grow vegetables next to the hot spring, because the soil near the hot spring is often not fertile enough, and the vegetables grown are not very big. Furthermore, because of the lack of temperature, the ancient greenhouses were not equipped with flues like Fang Jifan's, so what they could grow were only cold-resistant vegetables such as cucumbers.

As for watermelon, which only bear fruit in summer, it is very rare to grow it in winter.

"I can still grow melons in this kind of weather..." Zhu Houzhao had a silly look on his face. He was really happy. These melons were all grown by him. The bitterness of them can be imagined, and now they are finally here. It's time to harvest.

"These two melons, one is for the queen mother to taste." Zhu Houzhao pointed to the two melons produced by 'Champion Marquis', and then said: "The other one is to be sent to Renshou Palace. Great-grandmother's age Big, bad teeth, but you have to give her a taste."

Fang Jifan also picked up one: "This is for Your Majesty..."

"No!" Zhu Houzhao squinted his eyes, stubborn and stubborn: "Sell it to him then."

"..."

"Let's save one to eat, what about the others?" Zhu Hou took care of Fang Jifan.

Fang Jifan said categorically: "If you expect to sell these dozens of melons, you will definitely not be able to earn money, but the most important thing is to open up the market first, so that our melons will be famous in the capital, so sell! And you have to sell them at a high price, and you have to sell them to the capital. For the richest people, after they have tasted this rare melon, we can recruit people in Xishan, build a greenhouse, and expand the planting scale. Now we have freed up thousands of acres of land, not only to grow melons, but also to try Some other things, all in all, we have expanded production step by step and made a name for ourselves. It just so happens that the weather is about to get hot. Taking advantage of this summer, we will build a greenhouse of several thousand mu first, um... the glass transmittance is pretty good, but , it looks like we have to make glass."

"What is glass?" Hearing a new term, Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan curiously.

The most important thing right now is to reduce the cost to a minimum. You can do whatever you want in the experimental field. After all, this is just a verification, but the real business is another matter.

As for what glass is, it is difficult for Fang Jifan to explain to Zhu Houzhao.

Making glass in Xishan is really a good thing, because what is needed most for glass smelting is fuel. The ore veins in Xishan are fuel, and materials can be obtained nearby. mines, but now it has come in handy and can be used to build large-scale greenhouses.

Coal mines are the foundation, which can be used as fuel and can be sold at the same time, while anthracite is used to smelt glass, which can be sold to the outside world and can also be used to build greenhouses for greenhouses. This is equivalent to establishing a simple industrial chain.

However, things have to be done step by step. There is no need to rush to expand planting. There is still a full summer. The most important thing is to develop the brand first.

Watermelon in winter is a rarity. If it becomes popular among the top wealthy circles in the capital, it will be easy to handle.

Of course, if you give this watermelon a little special meaning, it will be even more wonderful.

The two carried out a watermelon, like two thieves. In the darkness, they ordered the eunuch on duty to take a watermelon knife, wash the watermelon, and cut them into two. The bright red juice immediately overflowed, and the unique melon fragrance In this cold night, don't have a flavor.

"I will cut it myself." Zhu Houzhao wanted to cut the watermelon into petals.

But Fang Jifan said: "You can't eat like this, this is how the poor eat."

"Ah..." Zhu Houzhao couldn't help being stunned.

Fang Jifan said to the eunuch on duty: "Bring two spoons."

The eunuch licked his lips, looked at this rare thing pitifully, and actually got greedy, but unfortunately, he knew that he had no share, so he had to obey orders to get the silver spoon.
