Tang Dynasty: The beginning of the game is to touch the Princess Changle

More than an hour had passed since the banquet ended.

"Boy, I have a house in Chang'an, how about you move there?"

Li Shimin had already planned to arrange for Su Chen to attend the court.

Su Chen declined without thinking: "Your Majesty, I have two important things to do here, and I can't go to Chang'an now."

Li Shimin nodded silently, and did not force it, thinking that Su Chen must have more important arrangements.

Just like fine salt, Su Chen was going to give it to him from the beginning.

Su Chen was wondering if he had lost out by coming to the Tang Dynasty.

It seemed like he was working for Li Shimin. There was no work anywhere, so why did he need to go so far?

He was still not sure what he would get after completing the task.

...

Li Shimin suddenly remembered that Su Chen had already called her the queen and the queen mother.

Should I also call her father?

"Boy, do you have to change your words?"

Li Shimin looked at Su Chen with a threatening look.

That look seemed to say: Boy, think about it first!

Su Chen was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this.

Hmm?

You want me to call you... Dad?

Forget about the door, there are no windows.

I can call Empress Changsun mother, Queen Mother.

But you want to be my dad? Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"Your Majesty, it's not too late to talk about this in two years!"

Su Chen was still very polite and declined Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was about to get angry when Li Yuan next to him coughed.

"Well, I just said it casually, boy, don't take it seriously!"

Li Shimin pretended to be calm and said indifferently.

How could everyone present not know what kind of character this emperor was.

He also threatened others and wanted to be their father.

"Father, I want to leave first, please allow me!"

Li You couldn't sit still for a long time, and heard Su Chen say that he wanted to build more than 200 pig pens.

It must be my brother-in-law, who brought a lot of pigs again.

He wanted to watch them build the pigsty, and not let the pigs live in discomfort in the future.

It would affect their growth.

Li Shimin looked at Li You and had a headache.

He also heard that his son was obsessed with raising pigs and farming.

Could it be that he had stayed in the palace for too long and got sick?

"Old Five, you go!"

Li You bowed respectfully, "I'll take my leave!"

He looked at Su Chen, raised his eyebrows, and whispered, "Brother-in-law, I'm leaving first."

After Li You left the living room, Li Shimin remembered.

Before that, Su Chen suddenly said that he wanted a large piece of land to build a pigsty.

"Su Chen, do you have so many pigs to raise that you need to build more than 200 pig pens?"

Su Chen nodded, "Yes, there are 1,000 pigs. Don't say anything. I'll treat you to a whole pig banquet later!"

"Whole pig banquet?"

Those 13 pigs are almost two months old, and they weigh about 100 kilograms, which should be enough for two tables.

Everyone said they had never heard of it, and even the people present had not eaten pork.

"Okay, okay, kid, go get it now, cook it yourself!"

Li Shimin knew that Su Chen never let people down when he said something or promised something!

Su Chen smiled and nodded, but his face changed immediately.

Who can kill a pig?

People in the Tang Dynasty don't eat pork much.

"Uh... everyone, has anyone killed a pig?"

This is Su Chen, the top-notch guy, and he doesn't even look at the status of these people.

Can they do this job of killing pigs?

Don't mention it, there really are some!

"Hehe! Su kid, now you know who I am, Old Cheng, right?"

Su Chen bowed and said, "Uncle Cheng, now I know."

"Hehe, you don't know, let me tell you. Before I became famous, I was called Cheng Yaojin, and I slaughtered pigs and sheep.

Later, I became famous and changed my name to Cheng Zhijie, with the courtesy name Yizhen.

Come on, let's slaughter pigs now, get more, hehe!"

After Cheng Yaojin bowed to everyone, Su Chen was rudely hugged by Cheng Yaojin and walked out of the living room.

"Hehe, let me tell you, Yuchi Laohei knows that he is a blacksmith."

Cheng Yaojin hugged Su Chen and said as they walked.

Cheng Yaojin would not whisper, and everyone could hear it.

When he was about to walk away, Su Chen shouted:

"Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, go prepare some soybeans and soak them in water! Wang Chao, Ma Han, follow me."

Su Chen was going to slaughter two pigs.

Xue Rengui and Li Ke also followed to kill the pig.

Li Shimin shook his head and said with a smile:

"Aye, everyone, that kid should take some time.

You may as well go with me to visit this manor. By the way, take a look at those high-yield grain crops.

That is the hope for the future of the Tang Dynasty!"

Everyone stood up, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

...

"Aye, this is sweet potato, with an output of 5,000 catties per mu. This thing is not only high-yielding, but also full of treasures.

The leaves can be used as seasonal vegetables when they are tender, and now they can be used to feed pigs.

The fruit grows underground, is not afraid of locust plagues, and is drought-resistant and flood-resistant."

After listening to Li YuanNodding, "This thing can really be called immortal food!"

At this time, Li Chengqian came forward and suggested:

"According to my sister... Su Chen, sweet potatoes can be harvested in March. Although it is less than three months now, it is not much different.

Can we pull up one plant so that the emperor can see what the sweet potato looks like.

Auntie, Aye, what do you think?"

Li Shimin laughed: "Haha, very good! The prince is thoughtful!"

Li Chengqian said nothing, rolled up his sleeves, bent down, grabbed a sweet potato vine, and lifted it up with force.

You are right, he pulled it up.

As expected, only a small sweet potato was brought out of the soil.

Everyone was confused. Even so, there is a yield of 5,000 kilograms per mu?

Does it include the soil?

Li Shimin and Li Chengqian also looked at each other with doubts.

However, they did not doubt what Su Chen said.

Li Chengqian thought about it, squatted on the ground and dug the soil with his hands, revealing the tip of the red sweet potato.

Oh, it's exposed.

Strange, when it was planted, it was planted lying down, why isn't the belly exposed now?

Li Chengqian quickly dug the soil, and the sweet potatoes came out.

There were five oval and long sweet potatoes.

This plant weighed more than two kilograms of sweet potatoes. When it was planted, 3,000 plants were planted per acre.

"Father, grandfather, look, this sweet potato can't be pulled out.

It's in the soil, you have to dig it out. I remember Su Chen also said at the time that potatoes are also dug."

Li Shimin and Li Yuan, they are really father and son.

Each of them picked up one, rubbed it with their hands first, and then wiped it on their sleeves.

"Crack~Crack~"

"Crack~Crack~"

The skin is not even spit out.

It seems that the sweet potato needs to be left for a while, and it is better to eat it raw.

"Not bad, although it's not as good as after being cooked, it can still be used in an emergency."

Li Shimin nodded and commented.

"What are you doing here, nobles?"

A villager was working in the fields in the distance and found that someone seemed to be digging sweet potatoes here, so he came to see.

"Brother, we just came here to see how the sweet potatoes are growing."

Li Shimin turned around and greeted him with a smile.

"Oh, aren't you the former owner of the manor? I'm dazzled and didn't see clearly, please don't blame me!"

The villagers bowed and apologized.

"It's okay, we didn't say hello in advance!"

Li Shimin waved his hand and smiled.

The villagers are very responsible and take care of these sweet potatoes.

The children in the village never come to steal sweet potatoes.

"Then I'll go over there, nobles, please come!"

Li Shimin smiled and nodded.

"According to what Su said, these sweet potatoes will be enough for all the people in Chang'an to plant next year.

Within two years, they can be planted all over the Tang Dynasty.

Lord Dai, you must plan this matter in advance and proceed in an orderly manner."

The Minister of Revenue, Dai Zhou, stepped forward quickly:

"I obey your order!"

Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction.

How touching!

Li Shimin no longer has to worry about his people starving to death.

And potatoes and corn will be promoted for planting in due time.

There will be no more people starving to death in the Tang Dynasty.

His idea is good, but the land problem is not solved.

Some people will still starve to death.

As the saying goes: There is no idle land in the world, but farmers still starve to death!
