Chapter 68 One month(1/2)
The young master is busy quickly.
Naturally, Li Shimin could not place all his hopes on Li Ming, and had already begun to comprehensively fight against the disaster.
A large amount of supplies have been mobilized to prepare for possible locust plagues.
All the food was collected at this moment.
Violators will be killed without mercy.
The food supply of the Shaofu also directly reached the lowest level in history.
However, Li Ming didn't pay too much attention to this, after all, he didn't consume much food.
Even if pig feeding is added, most of it is pigweed plus locust and earthworm powder, which basically consumes no food.
Although this situation cannot be sustained forever.
It is also impossible to carry out large-scale expansion.
But he does not need to continue to support it. As long as the potatoes can mature and the initial cultivation is completed, potatoes will undoubtedly become the largest food supply for pigs.
After all, compared with today's grain production of only two to three hundred kilograms per mu, the yield of potatoes per mu is at least one thousand kilograms. If managed well, as an experimental species, it is not a big problem to produce four to five thousand kilograms a year. It can even be said to be light.
Relax.
The output of four to five thousand kilograms can be said to instantly solve the famine problem in the entire Tang Dynasty, and raising pigs is naturally more than enough.
He was completely unfazed by this.
For him, it’s just a step-by-step process.
As long as it gradually develops, Datang will surely reach its peak.
No need to worry at all.
And time passed slowly in his unhurried manner.
It’s been a month in the blink of an eye.
This month, the whole of Guanzhong has begun to fall into a frenzy of catching locusts.
Li Shimin, on the other hand, is actively facing the locust plague that may appear at any time.
On the official road leading to Wannian County.
A smooth road gradually took shape.
One wheelbarrow after another was pushed on it.
There are also busy figures.
Cheng Chumo, and Qin Huaidao's originally dark bodies seemed to be a little darker again.
At this moment, there was even a lot of dirt on his face and body.
Almost a month and a half has passed.
The repair speed is slower than expected.
After all, although there are official channels, it is still very troublesome to expand in some places.
In addition, not all of the 10,000 people are working.
Because I have something to do at home, or I need to do farm chores.
There are only about two to three thousand people who can work stably.
After all, this isn't the modern era, and all your recruitment must be done with farming in mind.
Otherwise, he will be the next Yang Guang.
However, it was relatively slow. In one and a half months, the road of more than ten kilometers gradually took shape.
Although there is dust on the equal road, even if it rained yesterday, there is no mud on the official road. At the same time, the width of the road has reached three to four meters, which is almost the same as some rural roads in previous lives.
"Hurry up!"
"It's such a small job, it's a grind!"
Cheng Chuliang's loud words were remembered among the crowd.
After shouting, he landed on the pile of sand next to him.
"Damn it, it's finally almost done."
"I'm so exhausted!"
Cheng Chuliang cursed and spoke.
At this time, Qin Huaidao also came over.
"Brother Huaidao, you think we should be almost done!"
Seeing Qin Huaidao approaching, Cheng Chuliang quickly asked.
"I'm afraid this won't work!"
"See for yourself!"
Qin Huaidao felt helpless, and then handed a piece of official document to Cheng Chuliang.
Cheng Chuliang felt a chill in his heart and subconsciously took the official document.
But when he saw it, his face was completely dumbfounded.
"This, this!"
Cheng Chuliang opened his mouth wide.
"Let's do it. His Royal Highness, King Wei, obviously has no intention, so just let it go."
"This year, we may really have to stay here to build roads."
Qin Huaidao was a little helpless, even though he had expected it.
But he didn't expect that after the road was repaired, there would be orders again.
The command is very simple.
And this time it is even more exaggerated, that is, building an official road from Chang'an to Luoyang.
It took them almost a month and a half to repair these fifteen kilometers.
How long does it take to get from Chang'an to Luoyang?
I'm afraid it will take at least a year.
"Fuck, no, I'm going to find King Wei."
"I'm not here to build roads with him."
Cheng Chuliang finally couldn't bear it anymore, he cursed loudly, then got up and ran towards Chang'an City.
Qin Huaidao hesitated for a moment and then followed.
However, when they came to Shaofu.
But you can’t even see anyone.
Because at this moment, Li Ming's figure has arrived in the palace.
"Fourteen, your vegetables are pretty good, much better than those grown in my hot spring."
"How did you do it?"
Li Shimin recalled the green vegetables before and asked with some surprise.
"Your Majesty, this is what I have researched based on the records in the Han Dynasty. Planting vegetables in winter is a bit expensive, so it cannot be promoted."
Li Ming spoke respectfully.
"Han Shu?"
"I do remember a little bit. It seems to be heated by firewood. This is indeed quite expensive."
"Tell me, why are you here this time? If you want food, then don't ask. I also want food now."
Li Shimin nodded, expressing understanding, and then asked.
The words are spoken with a smile.
"Father, this time I came here not to ask for food, but to ask my father to allow me to open a restaurant!"
Listening to Li Shimin's words, Li Ming shook his head and then responded solemnly.
"Restaurant?"
Li Shimin couldn't help but be stunned for a moment and didn't react for a while.
"Yes, I want to open a restaurant!"
Li Ming nodded with a definite answer.
Why was pork so popular in the previous life? Of course it was Mr. Dongpo who made it popular. Since then, pork has gradually come onto the stage of the nobles.
To be continued...
