Not only is Tudou being targeted, but probably many others are also targeting him.
According to Luowang's intelligence, there were hundreds of people in Xiliang County in just a few days. These people came from various forces. People from surrounding counties and counties were sent to investigate, and even people from the Western Region countries came.
The largest number of visitors were the Daning Dynasty and the barbarians from the Northern Territory. Their goal was very simple and clear, that is, they came for sweet potatoes and potatoes.
Previously, in order to expand his influence and better complete the task of convincing people with virtue, Lin Yi had no intention of blocking news about Tudou. The two countries were not deaf, so they would naturally know the news.
In the face of such a magical object, it is impossible for the two countries to turn a blind eye. No matter how suspicious they are, they will send people to take a look.
All this was expected by Lin Yi, and he had been prepared for it!
The cultivation of sweet potatoes and potatoes is currently only a pilot project. Except for Bai ZiZi's hands, the rest of these pilot projects are under the control of Luowang.
The people who planted them had also gone through strict inspections. Except for a few aborigines, most of them were the Yellow Turban Army under Lin Yi. Therefore, unless a large army was used to rob them, these seeds could not be taken away.
And if it really comes to the point of using the army, then my Xiliang cavalry will not be a vegetarian.
So it’s not a big problem!
While they were talking, the group of people had already entered the living room, and vaguely heard the clanging sounds in the backyard. From time to time, people would carry out flowers and plants and throw them away like garbage.
This made Lin Yi dumbfounded. The old man has gone crazy.
It is a waste of money to have a good garden dug to pieces by an old man.
Seemingly reading Lin Yi's thoughts, Bai Zizai explained: "Hey, those flowers and plants were planted by my daughter. I have long disliked them. Forget it if I can't eat them. I still have to take care of them. Why not plant some sweet potatoes and potatoes?"
, looks solid.”
In his eyes, no flowers, plants or trees could compare to these sweet potatoes. Having experienced the most desperate times, he knew in his heart that only food was the final guarantee.
"This is also true. Potatoes and sweet potatoes taste pretty good. With them, Beiliang will not be short of food in the future."
Lin Yi couldn't laugh or cry and said sarcastically.
Even if the yield per mu is not 3,000 jins, a yield of 2,000 jins is enough for the people to have enough to eat and not go hungry.
"Hehe, Prince, don't tell me, we baked one of this thing, it's really delicious!" Zhou Cang, a young man covering his crotch on the side, laughed, with a look of unfinished expression on his face.
He secretly baked a few before, and the taste was amazing, sweet and waxy, so delicious.
Bai Zizai glared at him and said angrily: "You bastard, these are priceless seeds, and you still have the nerve to laugh! That's a crime of yours, do you understand?"
The old man spoke righteously and gave Zhou Cang a lesson without any politeness.
Zhou Cang shrank his head and muttered: "You old man is really annoying, you talk as if you haven't eaten."
This old man is not honest at all, and he doesn’t know who was trying his best to say it was delicious yesterday, but now it’s all the blame on me, Zhou Cang.
As for an old man, he is simply too old to be ashamed!
Bai Yun, the butler on the side, was very embarrassed when he heard this. Yesterday, the old man secretly ate one, and then said it was delicious, and baked several more in one go. Finally, he secretly tasted two, and he had to say that they were really delicious and cooked.
It tastes better.
"roll roll roll!"
Bai Zizai blushed, kicked Zhou Cang, and said angrily: "You know what the hell, I was eating it secretly, I was testing the poison for the people of Beiliang! If I didn't try it, how would I know that it would work?
can not eat!"
If he hadn't tasted it, he wouldn't have cleaned up the yard. This food is delicious.
puff!
Lin Yi was defeated by Bai Zizai's shamelessness. It was the first time he heard someone talk about stealing in such a high-end and classy way, and he even elevated himself to the level of Shennong. This was the first time he heard anyone talk about stealing.
Such nonsense lies are just fooling people.
"How does it taste?" he asked angrily.
The smile on Bai Zizai's face froze. Although he didn't want to admit it, the taste was really good, and it was much smoother than those steamed buns.
He said coquettishly: "This tastes pretty good. I'll be full after eating two of them. If the yield per mu is really three thousand jins, the whole of Beiliang will not be short of food in the future. Your son's merits are immeasurable!"
"At that time, the prince will be able to win the allegiance of the entire people of Beiliang without spending a single soldier. Even the emperor will be unable to do anything to the prince. After all, the prince is much more reliable than the emperor."
Forehead!
Hearing his nonsense, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh or cry. This old man really dared to say anything.
But naturally he would not fall out with Bai Zizai just because of a few sweet potatoes. Previously, he destroyed Zhuo Feifan and others. In addition to tens of thousands of troops, he also got tens of thousands of kilograms of sweet potatoes and potatoes, so he had to eat so many
It still doesn't affect the overall situation.
Besides, this old man claims to be a saint to himself, so it’s even harder to say anything to others.
He waved his hand and said: "I can't say I have great merits. I, Lin Yi, am also the prince of Beiliang. Naturally, I have to do something for the people. My words are serious!"
"The prince is righteous, the prince has a successor!" Bai Zizai couldn't help but sigh after hearing Lin Yi's words.
Regardless of whether the prince's words are sincere or not, he has already done so. That means he is a qualified prince, who is much more reliable than those incompetent emperors.
Lin Yi nodded slightly and did not continue to dwell on this matter.
He took a gift box from Zhang Liao, handed it to the old man, and said with a smile: "This time, the old man helped me catch some spies. These are high-quality wolfberries. The old man can drink more to replenish his body."
"Goji berries, nourish the body?"
Bai Zizai did not refuse. He had also heard of this wolfberry, which is a kind of medicinal material.
Why is it so popular to give medicinal materials as gifts now? Is this little brat trying to curse me?
He looked at Lin Yi suspiciously. Is this guy here to cause trouble?
Lin Yi chuckled and explained: "Don't get me wrong, old man, soaking wolfberry in water is very good for men! As the saying goes, when middle-aged people have no choice but to soak wolfberry in a thermos cup, after drinking it, they will become more powerful..."
Dragon spirit and tiger ferocity?
Everyone was immediately excited. If this was true, it would be good news. I didn't expect wolfberry to have such magical effects.
puff!
Bai Zizai spat out a sip of tea, and then became furious. This guy actually gave me this thing. He thought I was useless.
He glanced at Lin Yi and said in a deep voice: "Thank you very much, Your Majesty, but I am a very capable general, so I don't need this. I appreciate Your Majesty's kindness."
Having said that, he had already placed the box in the hands of the butler and ordered it to be placed in the treasure house for later use. He must give it a try when he has time.
This old man!
Saying you don't want it, but still keeping it in the treasure house, isn't this a deception?
Lin Yi secretly smiled in his heart, but said seriously on his face: "Old General, I came to see you this time because many people have sneaked into our Xiliang County recently. What do you think their purpose is?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Zizai's face suddenly became serious.
