Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five Greenhouses

Entering the greenhouse area on horseback

Not long after walking, you can see a Erha lying there.

Erha, who was lying on the ground, smelled Li Mingda's scent, stood up, and ran to Li Mingda in a hurry.

wagging tail

flatter

"Good boy, how are you behaving?"

Erha: "Oooooooow"

He reached out and patted Erha on the head: "Good performance, let's go play."

Erha, who received the praise, went back in a hurry.

Wen Chou takes Li Mingda around

First, I entered the first greenhouse to plant corn. It has been planted for so long and is growing well. It is more than one meter tall and green. It looks very pleasing to the eye.

Inside the greenhouse, several Datang agricultural officials were busy sorting out weeds and clearing out pests. Inside the greenhouse, there were not many pests, mainly weeds.

Seeing Li Mingda arrive, he put down what he was doing

"Meet His Majesty the Holy Emperor Mingzun"

"Get up"

"Thank you, Your Majesty"

The farm officials bowed their heads and stood aside, waiting for Li Mingda's lecture.

"Remember to pollinate after earing. Can I leave this Lin Dong to you?"

"Your Majesty, Master Lin Dong has already taught us."

"You don't know what to say when pollinating, don't make your own decisions. These crops are related to the future food and clothing of the people in the world, you know?"

"Yes, I will remember the instructions carefully."

"You can consider using bees for artificial inoculation. I'll find someone to do it later."

Wen Chou interjected: "Your Majesty, bees are rare in the north this season."

Li Mingda rubbed his chin: "Then bring some from the south. Honey is also a good thing. Later I will write you some knowledge about beekeeping. Although it is not complete, it is generally not bad. That's it. Let's go and see the sweet potatoes.

"

"yes"

Li Mingda left, and several agricultural officials wiped the sweat from their foreheads. It was too scary. Although Li Mingda has always been kind, the premise is that you have not committed any crime.

"Huh, standing next to His Majesty scared me so much that I couldn't even breathe."

‘You’re such a coward, look at me and you’ll be fine’

"Pull it down, your calves were trembling just now. If you didn't lean on me, you would have knelt down."

"Stop being poor and work hard."

After leaving the corn greenhouse, Li Mingda came to the inside of the sweet potato greenhouse. Compared with the corn greenhouse, the height required for sweet potatoes is not that high. The difference is that Li Mingda specially made the soil here by mixing a lot of sand and fertile soil.

"

A thick layer of sandy soil has good air permeability, facilitates the growth of sweet potatoes, and can lock in the required moisture, so that the sweet potatoes will not clump, which is very helpful for the expansion, production and spread of sweet potatoes. Sandy soil has low nutritional content, so adding

Fertile soil ensures nutrients.

As for why Li Mingda knows so much, he just needs to watch more agricultural science programs. At that time, Li Mingda was mainly too idle. He watched everything, knew everything but was not proficient in it.

For example, Li Mingda has watched a lot of blacksmithing programs and knows how to forge steel. He has also watched geographical animal programs and agricultural science programs to learn about the cultivation of basic crops and the raising of livestock. His favorite is all kinds of food programs.

Inside the sweet potato greenhouse, there is a lush green ground, with sweet potato vines covering the entire ground. There is also a bamboo tube running rack inside the greenhouse, which can be used for watering at any time.

The characteristics of sandy soil ensure that even if the sweet potato field is watered too much, it will not have a big impact.

Squat down and look at the thick sweet potato leaves, and then look under the vines to see small mounds of soil. Under each mound is at least one sweet potato.

Wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth

Wait for it to mature and try one.

As for now, the most I can do is get some sweet potato leaves to eat.

I stretched out my hand to grab a leaf from the vine, and heard a burst of howling from outside.

It's Oscar here

When Oscar comes, Murong Xue will definitely be there too.

A flurry of footsteps

Murong Xue jumped in

“It’s so sad to eat secretly behind the back of the family members.”

Sweet potato leaves were stuffed into Murong Xue's mouth: "Then, let's eat it for you."

Murong Xue ate it without ceremony: "It's sweet, not bad, and has a bit of earthy taste."

"I haven't had time to wash it yet, maybe there is some cow dung or something."

Murong Xue rolled her eyes and was about to vomit. She rolled her eyes and gave her relative Li Mingda a mouthful, then spit out the leaves.

"Oscar is here to give you a taste."

Oscar the silly dog ​​ate it without saying a word.

o(□)o

Wiping his mouth on Li Mingda, Murong Xue bared her teeth: "Hey, hey, how do we do this?"

Li Mingda gave a thumbs up: "The response is very fast, worthy of praise. Why did you catch up to me? Have you had enough fun in Chang'an City?"

Murong Xue looked unhappy: "Forget it, those Tubo people don't go shopping anymore. They stay in the embassy every day. It's hard to find trouble."

(* ̄ ̄)

He rubbed Murong Xue's little fat face: "Are you still thinking about revenge because you were deceived by them?"

Murong Xue clenched her fists: "Huh, of course, you tricked us into starting a war with the Tang Dynasty. If I, Murong Xue, were not smart, quick-thinking, popular with everyone, and mighty... I would have led people to surrender on the spot, otherwise I would have been bulldozed by you.

It’s hard to say what kind of situation it will be reduced to by then.”

resentment

Xiaobai of his family was angry. As the head of the family, Li Mingda was not the legendary head of the family Sun Yongda who broadcast live in the utility room.

"Xiao Bai, won't you fight in if they don't come out?"

Ah?

Murong Xue tilted her head: "Is that okay?"

"Why not? Beating them up will do a lot more good. Anyway, we will inevitably have to fight a decisive battle in the end. The current peace talks are for them to delay time and use us, so why not us?"

Bar chi

Murong Xue kissed Li Mingda: "Gouzi, you are the best, let's go and do it now."

Li Mingda grabbed Murong Xue and said, "They can't run away. Let's pick some sweet potato leaves today, eat steamed vegetables in the evening, and then go see how the peppers are doing."

saliva

Murong Xue is also a girl who likes to eat chili peppers. I heard that seeing chili peppers look so happy is like Oscar.

With the cooperation of Li Mingda, Murong Xue and Qingfeng, the entire greenhouse was swept away without affecting the quantity of sweet potato growth.

Murong Xue also wanted to pick all the sweet potatoes in the greenhouse at once, but Li Mingda told her to keep the water flowing slowly.

Throwing the sweet potato leaves to the guards, Li Mingda and Murong Xue entered the greenhouse where peppers were grown.

The entrance is also green, and the trees are growing happily. Many of them have already grown flowers, which will bloom and bear fruit in the future.

After wiping their saliva, Li Mingda and Murong Xue inspected all the chili greenhouses.

The peppers in all the greenhouses are growing well, but they cannot reach modern yields, and the yields are not low either.

Look at the greenhouses where potatoes are grown. There are also potatoes native to the Tang Dynasty, but they are not big enough. The potatoes brought by the fleet from South America are slightly better. Cross-breeding will be needed in the future.

After scanning around, Li Mingda took Murong Xue back to the Tai Chi Hall. The imperial chef made steamed sweet potato leaves and some garlic according to Li Mingda's request.

Beautiful

When Lao Li heard about the new delicacies, he was so greedy that he didn't want any. He had no choice but to give out a lot of them so that everyone could take a bite.

Early the next morning, Murong Xue had breakfast and went straight to the Tibetan Embassy with Oscar and Grammy.
