Tian Minyan raised her head and stared blankly at the person in front of her. She was dressed in black clothes, with a sapphire blue opal-embroidered auspicious cloud belt around her waist, indigo satin boots with gold edges, and a purple gold crown on her head.
This huge Dongzhu has a real face like a crown jade, and is very noble.
"My saliva is dripping." Qi Shiqi looked at her condescendingly, and inadvertently showed a smile. When he saw Tian Minyan reaching out to wipe it, the corners of his mouth suddenly flew up.
When Tian Minyan saw that she had been fooled, she suppressed her blush and glared at him.
"Bold! What kind of unruly person dares to despise the prince? Someone, drag him down." A high-pitched voice filled with anger startled Tian Minyan.
He glanced sideways and lowered his head hurriedly. Although he was wearing ordinary clothes, he had a white face and beardless appearance, and a feminine appearance. Coupled with the voice of the tube, he was clearly a father-in-law.
When a guard came forward, Tian Minyan was not afraid, but Tian Huairen was so frightened that he trembled and stammered, "Your Majesty, please spare your life." As he said this, he crouched lower.
"Go down." Qi Shiqi glanced at the guard lightly, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, get up."
Those kneeling were all villagers from Yangmei Village. Although they heard Qi Shiqi’s words, no one dared to get up. This is the prince. He is thousands of times and a hundred times bigger than the magistrate. He can kill you with one glance.
People, when has such a noble person ever come to Yangmei Village?
Not only did he not dare to move, he didn't even dare to say a word, and he was trembling in his heart. What's going on? Why did such a noble person come to such a remote village?
Qi Shiqi's face darkened and he coughed. Magistrate Zheng, who had not yet caught his breath and rushed to catch up, immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, please get up. Everyone, please get up."
Tian Minyan finally came to her senses, got up quickly, and looked at Qi Shiqi blankly.
Although she had doubts in her mind, once she finally confirmed it, she felt particularly frightened. My lord, your noble royal family, she really had a big backer.
The more Tian Minyan thought about it, the happier she became. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was just unlucky. The royal family, the noble royal family, are truly the unattainable Tian family.
If the emperor is the president of a country, then isn't the prince who is favored by the emperor the prime minister of a country? If the relationship is good, whoever wants to bully them has to weigh it again and again?
Thinking of this, the joy and smile in Tian Minyan's eyes overflowed like a tide.
Qi Qi Qi saw her eyes shining brightly, as if she hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and suddenly saw the plump and tender meat, her eyes were shining, and he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Habitually, he bent his fingers and tapped her forehead, pretending to be dissatisfied and said, "What are you dreaming about?"
Qi Shiqi didn't know that his random action made everyone gasp. What is the relationship between the prince and this girl? It looks very weird!
Everyone was shaking in their hearts, and their eyes on Tian Minyan suddenly became incomprehensible.
Tian Minyan let out an ouch, gritted her teeth, and said subconsciously: "Why are you hitting someone again..." As soon as she said the words, she saw the father-in-law staring at her warningly, and the prefect in official uniform beside him looked at him with sweat on his forehead.
She winked, got excited, and hurriedly knelt down: "A common girl is innocent, I hope the prince will forgive me."
Qi Shiqi was very angry. This girl was no longer fun when she got older. She took a look at the people around her and felt very unhappy. If these people hadn't followed him shamelessly, and if they hadn't known his identity, she wouldn't have been like this.
Magistrate Zheng met Qi Shiqi's gaze and lowered his head, his heart pounding and his back covered with cold sweat.
Who said Prince Xian is the most gentle and amiable? Rumor, this is a rumor!
Qi Shiqi coughed and said calmly: "I forgive you for not being guilty, get up. The potatoes are about to start, so start work quickly."
Tian Minyan glanced at him secretly, saw him glaring over, and hurriedly asked people to start harvesting.
Only then did Wen Shanchu understand that Prince Xian was coming to the Tian family's hundred acres of wasteland. But how did the two of them know each other?
This girl from the Tian family must be very capable. Not counting the fact that she knew a third-grade imperial concubine, but now that she was familiar with Prince Xian, he really didn't think much of this girl.
Tian Minyan ordered the long-term workers to start working. When she turned around, she saw that the guards who had followed Qi Shiqi spread out and separated the villagers of Yangmei Village from the periphery. The common people were pointing and whispering.
Looking at Qi Shiqi again, the father-in-law beside him took out a chair from nowhere and held out a cup of tea. Qi Qi Qi sat firmly on it, completely ignoring the crowd of people around him who nodded and bowed.
It's really corrupt, Tian Minyan clicked her tongue in disdain.
"Girl, come here." Qi Shiqi seemed to notice Tian Minyan's gaze and waved.
Girl?
The people surrounding Qi Shiqi exchanged glances with each other and saw the importance in each other's eyes. This showed great intimacy.
Tian Minyan ran over in a hurry, but before she was two meters away, Fuquan shouted: "Stop." He glared at Tian Minyan and said to Qi Shiqi: "Your Majesty, such a rude woman does not understand the rules and has no etiquette.
Maybe there is danger, how can we tell her to approach?"
After Tian Minyan heard this, her dog-legged smile suddenly froze, and she stood there with a stern look on her face and stared at Fuquan.
Qi Shiqi saw Tian Minyan's little face bulging with anger and found it funny. Seeing Fuquan's look of disdain, he couldn't help but coughed and said: "Fuquan, don't be rude."
"Your Majesty..." Fu Quan was still unconvinced, but when he saw Qi Shiqi's smiling face, his heart trembled and he had no choice but to retreat.
After following his master for twenty years, he knew very well that the calmer and gentler his master's smile was, the more unhappy he was.
Tian Minyan stepped forward, folded her hands on her abdomen, and saluted with a smile: "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"You're so docile, you talk just like before." Qi Shiqi's face darkened, and he said displeasedly.
Tian Minyan swore in her heart, I thought, but the person next to you regards me as a scourge, how dare I?
"Your Majesty..." Tian Minyan was very embarrassed. She glanced at the officials around her and lowered her head.
Qi Shiqi's handsome face sank slightly, becoming more and more displeased. He glanced at those people coldly, making them uneasy and uneasy, and they speculated again and again.
"You guys, go down and help the potatoes." Qi Shiqi said coldly.
"ah?"
Following them were the prefect, the governor, the county magistrate, and a young general. They looked at each other, rolled up their official uniforms, and wanted to go down to the ground.
Tian Minyan said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you can't." Sensing the warning looks from the adults, Tian Minyan hurriedly smiled and said, "I don't dare bother you, I just need some help from the guards."
The young general knew how to look at Qi Shiqi, and when he saw that Qi Qi Qi was silent, he immediately shouted and ordered the soldiers who had formed a protective circle to get down to the ground.
The prefect looked at the potatoes that had sprouted, stepped forward to take one, and said, "Little girl, what kind of crop is this? I have never seen it before."
"Sir, this thing is called a potato. It was introduced from a foreign land. It is said that the yield per acre is very high. Girl from the Tian family, is that right?" Wen Shanchu looked at Tian Minyan with a smile.
"What the adults said is absolutely true. Potatoes, like sweet potatoes, are drought-tolerant. They are an excellent non-staple food in times of famine. Compared with sweet potatoes, the yield per acre is no worse." Tian Minyan said with a smile: "Potatoes are edible, and potato vines are edible.
The seedlings can be fed to pigs and livestock, which is a wonderful way to kill two birds with one stone."
She didn’t know what was going on here. The modern yield of sweet potatoes per mu could reach six to seven thousand kilograms or more, but the sweet potato yield here was only over two thousand kilograms per mu. Is it because of the fertilizer?
"Is this true?" Zheng Zhifu's eyes lit up. He looked at Qi Shiqi and said with excitement and surprise: "Your Majesty, if this is true, we in the Southern Dynasty will no longer be afraid of famine. This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people."
Magistrate Zheng was really excited, because this was the same as raising fish in rice fields before, but it was a great political achievement. The Tian family, it was the Tian family again, and Magistrate Zheng looked at Tian Minyan with even more intense eyes.
"Your Majesty, the prince knows it well, because the prince purchased these hundred acres of seed potatoes, and I only provided the land and helped manage it." Tian Minyan immediately began to flatter.
Magistrate Zheng and others were stunned for a moment, then bowed deeply and shouted: "Your Majesty is wise."
While he was talking, Zhou Gui came up and said that one acre of land had been harvested.
Qi Shiqi asked people to put it in a sack and weigh him, while he sat there calmly and waited for the result.
When I heard that one acre of land had been raised, the villagers who were watching the excitement on the outside didn't care about their dignity and came forward to hear it.
The freshly picked potatoes are as big as a fist and are earthy yellow in color, and they are packed in bags after bags.
Wen Shanchu asked Master Dai to weigh the record with his palm, and he also watched it himself. After all, this was also a matter of political performance, so he couldn't help but care.
Bag after bag of potatoes was weighed, counted, and totaled until the last bag of potatoes was weighed and counted again.
The counting room was busy making calculations, and the final result left him dumbfounded, and Dai Zhubo, who was in charge of registration, was also stunned.
"What's the result?" Magistrate Zheng and Magistrate Wen asked in unison.
"Sir, the yield per mu is three thousand catties." Dai Zhubo stuttered.
With a "wow" sound, the crowd suddenly became excited. The yield per mu is three thousand kilograms. What is this concept? This is just wasteland. If it is replaced with fertile land for farming, wouldn't it? Everyone is making some calculations in their hearts. This is really
It is even more exciting than raising fish in rice fields.
Wen Shanchu was very excited. The yield per mu was three thousand kilograms, which was not dozens of grains. This was a great political achievement.
"Your Majesty, God bless our Southern Dynasty. From now on, there will be no famine in our Southern Dynasty." Zheng Zhifu knelt down in front of Qi Shiqi and shouted excitedly, while others also knelt down on the ground.
Even though he knew it well, Qi Shiqi stood up excitedly, said hello three times, and looked at Tian Minyan with eyes as fiery as fire.
Tian Minyan was also very excited. She could not help but be overjoyed that she could achieve such results without organic fertilizers. When she looked at the hundreds of acres of potato seedlings that had not yet sprouted, the corners of her mouth grew wider and wider.
The planting of this potato means that she has taken another step towards success.
