Chapter 26 Li Ershang was shocked again

 "Let's go!"

The veins on Li Shimin's forehead popped out one after another, and he spoke in a voice, no longer waiting, but headed straight to the manor.

When Li Shimin walked into the gate of the manor, Li Ming also walked out at the same moment.

"Father!"

Seeing Li Shimin arriving, Li Ming quickly saluted.

"King Wei is so elegant!"

"Why, my arrival has disturbed your enjoyment."

"If King Wei can't bear it anymore, how about I send you some more maids in a few days?"

Glancing at the mess on Li Ming's body, Li Shimin became even more angry and spoke coldly.

"Father, you?"

Li Ming was at a loss and didn't understand Li Er's words at all.

Ask subconsciously.

But when he was halfway through his words, he met the strange eyes of Wang De and the guard.

Now Li Shimin's words were matched with the shrill scream of the piglet that suddenly sounded at this moment.

Li Ming's mouth opened wide at this moment.

"That, that!"

"Father, you misunderstood!"

Speak quickly.

Just kidding, if he really wanted these people to think he had a special hobby, why the hell would he be hanging around in Chang'an?

"Misunderstanding?"

"Then, tell me where the misunderstanding is?"

Looking at Li Ming with an evil look, Li Shimin's words came out.

"Didn't my father and son buy a manor? Although they raised chickens and ducks, it was too empty, so they bought some piglets...!"

Facing his father's unkind gaze, Li Ming quickly explained the situation.

After listening to his explanation, everyone's strange expressions gradually calmed down.

Fortunately, castrated pigs also exist in this era. Although they are not common, they have existed for a long time, making it less difficult for everyone to understand.

Li Shimin's expression also relaxed a little.

As long as Li Ming doesn’t have any special hobbies.

Li Shimin feels that it is still acceptable.

After pondering for a moment, he thought about his coming here, and then his words came out.

"Let's go, take me to see your chickens and ducks. It is said that your chickens and ducks are quite large now."

"Yes, Father!"

Listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Ming was a little confused, but he nodded quickly.

Li Shimin and Wang De were led into the manor by Li Ming.

As soon as he entered, Li Shimin saw a middle-aged man tying up a piglet and pulling it with a knife.

Looking at this scene, Wang De couldn't help but turn pale.

Li Shimin glanced at it and didn't care too much.

"Father, the chickens and ducks are in the yard behind. Currently, I raise a total of 1,224 chickens and 736 ducks. In addition, an average of more than 120 chicks can be hatched every day.

As for ducklings, there should be sixty or seventy of them."

Leading the two of them quickly across the yard and into the yard at the back, Li Ming introduced his chicken and duck raising to Li Shimin.

Now that he has moved here, his chicken and duck business has undoubtedly expanded again.

And hearing about Li Ming's scale, even Li Shimin and Wang De couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Li Ming's scale is naturally nothing to the royal family.

But don’t forget, it has only been less than three months since Li Ming started raising chickens, and it has already reached such a scale.

"Your Highness King Wei, you are saying that more than 120 chicks and 60 to 70 ducklings can be hatched every day. How is this possible?"

"And since it's winter now, it should take longer for eggs and duck eggs to hatch."

Wang De was the first to speak.

Although he is Li Shimin's eunuch chief, Wang De has also lived among the people since he was a child, and he naturally knows a lot about farming.

Even if Li Ming had thousands of chickens and 700 ducks, it would not be enough to hatch so many.

"Eunuch Wang, eggs and duck eggs do not necessarily need to be hatched by chickens and ducks. I did not use chickens or ducks for my first hatching."

Li Ming smiled and spoke, but the words he said were enough to shock everyone in this era.

Wang De even instantly thought of the legend from some time ago.

"Your Highness, did you really hatch eggs and duck eggs yourself?"

Wang De's voice blurted out instantly.

But halfway through the words, I suddenly felt something was wrong.

Quickly add the opening.

"Your Highness, have you really found a way to hatch eggs without using chickens and ducks?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Shimin and Li Ming carefully, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he found that neither of them expressed anything.

"Natural!"

"Father, you and your ministers can go over and have a look and you will know."

Li Ming smiled and did not pay attention to the question in Wang De's words, but directly led the two of them to the incubation room.

As soon as they stepped in, the two instantly felt a sense of warmth.

"This is?"

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.

"Father, this is the fire kang, a winter heating method that I learned from the northerners. There is no doubt that eggs and duck eggs need to reach a certain temperature to hatch. This is how hens hatch. I only need to adjust the external conditions.

Shape the conditions for hens to hatch naturally."

"And compared with the environment of hens, the environment of Erchen is more stable, and the incubation time is also more stable. Generally, chicken and duck eggs only take about twenty days to hatch, but the chicken and duck breeding of Erchen can harvest three hundred eggs per day.

The remaining eggs, as well as hundreds of duck eggs, are constantly alternating, which is enough to ensure that hatching continues."

He opened his mouth and told Li Shimin about the incubation technology and principles.

He didn't keep the formula of the explosive secret, so there was no need for this.

This method may be a bad thing for aristocratic families to obtain, but if the emperor obtains it, it will be enough to benefit the people.

And blessing the common people is also enough to enhance national power.

Li Ming naturally won't mind.

And in Li Ming’s narration.

Especially when I saw it with my own eyes, there were eggs and duck eggs breaking out of their shells.

Both of them were shocked.

Especially Li Shimin, his eyes flickered at this time, and there was a bright light in his pupils.

As an emperor, he almost instantly realized the huge benefits of this thing.

Don’t talk about anything else.

Simple army.

If meat can be continuously provided, the military's combat capabilities will be greatly improved.

Originally, the number of chickens and ducks that Shaofu could raise was limited.

Nor will it be cultivated on a large scale.

But now if there is rapid incubation of technology, then all this can be done.

At this moment, thoughts are flowing in my mind.

Li Shimin's eyes gradually brightened.

This time, he was originally planning to come over and give Li Ming a good lesson. He didn't want Li Ming to lose his ambition by playing with things, but at this moment, the situation made it impossible for him to say the words of his lesson.

Thoughts flow.

A thought flashed through me instantly.

Li Shimin suddenly caught something.

The words came out immediately.
