The local people call it Yumai. It was originally brought to Mengli by the Han people from Nanzhao. They used Yumai whiskers to boil water to stimulate the Yangming Stomach Meridian and relieve qi. Later, the locals discovered that in addition to the whiskers, the stems and leaves can be eaten by livestock, and the fruits Very delicious too.
It's just that Menglong's jade wheat is really small, only as thick as two fingers of an adult man.
It is said that the jade wheat in Nanzhao is much larger, as thick as a small arm.
Xie Ji looked at the jade and wheat that had grown lush and lush after being casually scattered by the locals on the roadside. He had a thought in his mind. Not only did he bring a lot of jade and wheat seeds from Menglu, he even asked Lu Shun to send someone to Nanzhao to see more. Find some seeds.
Shen Nanxun had explained it when Lu Shun left. He also knew that food and grass were a big deal, so he was very attentive to Xie Ji's request. He was even worried that his subordinates would not know the importance. When he left Mengli and returned to Shu, Lu Shun After Xie Ji, we took a detour and made a trip to Nanzhao.
In Nanzhao, Xie Ji discovered another thing that pleased him. The mountains in Nanzhao were not like those in Shu. Although they stretched, they had little fluctuations. The key was that most of them were earth mountains rather than stone mountains.
But even if the mountains were not steep, it was impossible for the people to go up to the mountains to serve the land, so they planted an edible rhizome on the ground, which the locals called potato.
A piece of rhizome with bud eyes is buried, just waiting for the bud eyes to sprout and grow leaves. After the vines grow out, the rhizomes in the soil will turn into many potatoes. Only when the color of the vines gradually darkens and there are signs of withering, this The potatoes are also considered mature.
Grab the vines and lift them up from the soil, and there will be a bunch of them hanging underneath.
Xie Ji brought a lot of potatoes with him. This thing is different from others. They are planted one by one in patches. As for vines, they grow wherever there is space.
I heard that potatoes grow very quickly. They usually mature in three months. If the weather is colder, they can take about four months. They don’t need to be watered frequently. If they grow in the soil, they are not as delicate as growing outside.
Xie Ji guarded these two seeds every day as if they were treasures. He was worried about whomever they gave them to, for fear that they would be lost or damaged by others.
When Xie Ji arrived in Shu and met Mr. Liu, he asked Lu Shun to leave quickly, "If it can be grown in Shu, we can try it on Qinfeng Road. Of the ten or so things we brought back, only one or two can survive in Shu. It’s a good thing.”
Lu Shun also knew that although this food matter was a big one, it couldn't be rushed. It would take two seasons to know whether it would be successful. However, he still talked to Shen Nanxun when he returned to the northwest.
Shen Nanxun didn't say anything, he just asked someone to go to Nanzhao again and bring the seeds directly to Qinfeng Road. He couldn't wait to plant them one by one.
Speaking of Shen Nanxun's arrival in the northwest, the first thing he did when he arrived in the northwest was to ask Shen Ke to take his people and leave quickly, and explained a lot of things overnight.
The more Shen Ke listened, the more frightened she became.
"Brother, are you serious?" Shen Ke couldn't help but ask.
Shen Nanxun was so angry that he wanted to imitate Mrs. Lu and bang the table, "Why should I stay up in the middle of the night and tell you stories? Your sister-in-law's place is an opportunity. You quickly take someone there, but they are also stopped. After the things are done, they go to Yingtian Mansion. , let’s take a look to see if it works out, and go back and tell my father to propose marriage as soon as possible, or forget it if it doesn’t work out.”
"No, brother, can't you do it one by one? You do all these things in one go."
"I have to take a trip anyway, so don't leave in vain. Don't be idle when you return to Kyoto. Having said all that, it's better to get things done that need to be done."
"Brother, I don't want to go back." Shen Ke was still not happy.
"No, I have to stay, and you have to go back. Besides, go back and spend time with your aunt."
Although Shen Ke was a concubine and was not taken seriously in the house when he was a child, but was even bullied, Shen Nanxun and Shen Beirui actually envied Shen Ke.
At least, he grew up next to his mother, who hugged him when he fell, and cried when he was tired and wronged. Even now, his mother always remembers him.
Shen Ke really couldn't refuse this.
"Is there something you want me to bring to my sister-in-law?" Shen Ke compromised and asked Shen Nanxun.
Shen Nanxun glared at Shen Ke, "My wife and I have something to say and I want you to take it with me?"
Shen Ke curled his lips, "It's great to have a wife, but don't really make peace with her. I wouldn't call you sister-in-law if you were someone else."
"You talk too much, so go to bed and we'll leave early tomorrow morning."
Unlike Lu Fenghe, who first thought about sailing when he went out, Shen Ke was very impatient about sailing. Lu Fenghe was confused about one problem after another, and the Shaanxi-Sichuan Fourth Road went much smoother.
Mr. Lu successfully arrived in Kuizhou in early August. Kuizhou is located in the north and the autumn harvest will not be until after the Mid-Autumn Festival, which gave Mr. Lu time to rest and recuperate.
He had already received the news that Zhao was going to follow him in office. Since Zhao was coming, he couldn't just live in the government office, at least it had to be in a separate house.
Mr. Lu Sanye's official position is not high, and the government office does not have any free yard for him, so he can only stay in Guanyi and look for someone to rent a house.
Lu Shun followed Xie Ji on a trip to Menglu. This trip took a long time. He stayed in Menglu for more than twenty days. If Xie Ji and Lu Shun didn't have other tasks, I'm afraid Xie Ji would still be there. I can stay in Mengli for another year and a half.
Being able to stay in Mengli for so long is naturally rewarding.
They have seen a lot of things they have never heard of, things that grow in the soil and run on the ground, not to mention how new they are.
Xie Ji knew that Shu was very mountainous and could not cut trees, and he saw that Mengli was completely covered with forests, but there seemed to be inexhaustible food rations in the forests, so he was led by Dao Hong's bodyguards in the forest. I searched for it for three or four days.
The baskets on the backs of the few people who followed Xie Ji into the forest were all stuffed with things by Xie Ji. Not to mention, Xie Ji actually found things that could be taken to Shu or even to the northwest for planting.
The local people call it Yumai. It was originally brought to Mengli by the Han people from Nanzhao. They used Yumai whiskers to boil water to stimulate the Yangming Stomach Meridian and relieve qi.

It’s been nine days and I’m still exposed
One thing to say, if you shut it down again, your health will be fine, but your eyes may have problems. Recently, I feel that being stuck in the room every day and using electronic products is no longer good for my eyes.
