Chapter 120 Surprise After Wave After Wave

Chu Tiankuo said again: "Father, the first part on the tray is the original rice ear and wheat ear of our Chu State, the second part is the rice ear and wheat ear of Zhao State's high-yield grain species, and the third part is The high-yield grain varieties of wheat, rice and wheat ears newly bred by us in Chu State."

All the ministers: "..."

It turns out that high-yield wheat and rice have been bred? ! ! !
Three kinds of ears of rice and ears of wheat are placed together on the tray, the contrast is extremely sharp!

The original ears of rice and wheat in Chu State were sparsely grained, and there were many dry and flat grains.

The ears of rice and wheat in Zhao State are full and compact, with empty husks and few grains.

And the last rice ear and wheat ear, the grains are big and plump, a whole bunch, almost no grains can be seen!
It's heavy to pick up!
The comparison of the three wheat ears is also obvious!
The emperor suppressed his excitement, and beckoned to the servant of the household department: "Zhou Aiqing, take a look. Estimate how many catties this ear of rice and wheat is produced per mu."

Household Minister Zhou Liang came from a poor family and was in charge of the supervision of the imperial land. He was the most familiar official with food.

Wen Ruiqing stood in the corner and looked at Zhou Liang enviously.

Zhou Liang and Wen Ruiqing were in the same imperial examination high school, Zhou Liang was the number one scholar back then, and Wen Ruiqing was known as the best candidate for being young and handsome.

Their class was the one with the most poor students admitted to Jinshi.

For more than ten years, Zhou Liang has become the servant of the household department from a small imperial academy!
The Minister of the Household Department is much better than the Minister of Honghe Temple, and the Minister of Honghe Temple is simply thankless, especially when negotiating with Zhao Guo.

Wen Ruiqing was annoyed at the thought that he was about to meet Zhao Guo's envoys.

Eunuch Lao held the tray in front of Zhou Liang.

Zhou Liang saw the light in the eyes of the heavy rice ears, he had never seen such a large and plump rice ear!

He picked up the heavy ear of rice and carefully counted the number of grains of rice on it.

When it was over, he asked Chu Tiankuo excitedly: "His Royal Highness, I wonder how many ears of rice can grow from one seed of this high-yielding rice?"

Chu Tiankuo: "20-30 plants."

Zhou Liang was so excited that he gasped, and he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, each ear of rice in our country of Chu has about 100 grains of rice, and there are very many grains of grain. Generally, there are about 200 ears of rice in the country of Zhao." Many grains, sometimes nearly 30 grains, and only about [-] grains in the empty shell. This is already excellent! But the high-yield rice cultivated by His Royal Highness, each ear of rice produced more than [-] grains and nearly [-] grains of rice. It is full, and there are only two or three grains in the empty shell, which is almost negligible. Based on the calculation of the yield of this rice ear, I am afraid that the yield per mu can reach more than [-] catties, or even more than [-] catties per mu!"

Tobe Shiro's voice trembled at the end!

It is a legend that a mu yields a thousand catties!

There is silence all around: more than a thousand catties per mu?
What concept is this?
If the yield per mu is more than a thousand catties, as long as the family has one mu of land, the harvest in one season is enough to feed a family for a year!
Most of the fertile fields in Chu State can be harvested for two seasons, and the climate in the remote south is extremely warm all year round, so it can be planted for three seasons!
in this way
The emperor was so excited that his voice trembled when he heard the words: "The prince has made a great contribution this time! Haha, I want to reward the prince well! Reward the people who cultivated high-yield grain seeds! He has made a great contribution! Blessed!"

The minister of the Ministry of Industry immediately knelt down and said loudly: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor! The people of Chu State are blessed! There will be no famine in Chu State from now on! The people will never starve to death again!"

Seeing this, Lin Yushi and others also knelt down one after another: "Congratulations, Your Majesty,"

The second prince and Liang Cheng and others glanced at each other, their eyes were heavy and puzzled, and they shouted along with the crowd: "Congratulations, Father/Emperor"

The emperor said happily: "Everyone's family is flat, all you loves, take a look at the high-yield grain varieties cultivated by our Chu State, and compare them with Zhao State's, and see how excellent our high-yield grain varieties are!"

The ministers flocked to the household minister.

Some ministers carefully held the bunch of heavy ears of rice or wheat and counted them seriously.

Some ministers picked it up and weighed it carefully.

The emperor watched the heavy ears of rice and wheat passing among the ministers.

He clenched his fist secretly.

What this conveys is not just a bunch of ears of rice and wheat, but also a hope, a future!
Turn over, they Chu country can turn over from today!

Talented people come out from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years!
No matter what turn, it's their Chu country's turn!

~
Chu Tianyu, Prime Minister Liang, Minister of the Household Department and others stood up, their expressions were a little dignified.

Prime Minister Liang stroked his beard, feeling as if a boulder had been crushed: Could it be that Chu Tiankuo really cultivated high-yielding grain seeds?

If it is true, this credit is enough for him to be admired by all people, and the hearts of the people are aspirational!

This is a glorious achievement recorded in the annals of history!

Prime Minister Liang couldn't help but glanced at Chu Tiankuo. He found so many experienced farming experts from the private sector to study high-yielding grain seeds. He hadn't been able to cultivate high-yielding grain seeds for more than ten years. He was able to grow them in just a few years after he left. ?
Futai County clearly stated that the grain in the granary is absolutely impossible to be a high-yield grain.

Where did these two strings of heavy things come from?
Chu Tianyu glanced around, all the officials were very excited, only Chu Tiankuo stood there, looking outside, looking calm and calm, not surprised by favor or insult.

He didn't believe that he could really breed high-yield grain seeds!Those are obviously fake grains!

He couldn't help but said: "If the emperor really cultivates high-yielding grain seeds and wheat, he has really made a great contribution this time! The emperor is full of admiration."

Chu Tiankuo's eyes fell on the petite figure outside, and he turned his head when he heard the words, and glanced at him lightly, "The truth cannot be faked. There are many things that you can admire! Learn from it in the future! Don't always think about it Delusion about things that don't belong to you, so that you can make credit."

Chu Tianyu: "."

Why are you so arrogant?Who has not done meritorious service?
If you have the ability, you will continue to make contributions one by one!
Chu Tianyu is angry!This high-yield grain must be fake!

After Chu Tiankuo finished speaking, he didn't bother him anymore, and he said to the emperor again: "I want to report to my father, there are three new types of farm tools outside."

~
Outside, on the empty platform.

Pedal threshing machines, manual harvesters, and Yanggu windmills are placed side by side on the ground.Next to it are a pile of newly harvested rice and a bag of dried rice that has not yet been harvested.

In addition, there is an original grain barrel and a semi-enclosed Yanggu windmill.

Manchao Wenwu looked at the three giant farm tools on the ground, his eyes were full of shock and curiosity.

The emperor looked at the three behemoths on the ground, is this what Kong Lao said in his letter?

The surprises the crown prince gave him today were really wave after wave!
The emperor was excited in his heart, but his face didn't show it. He asked majesticly: "This pedal threshing machine, manual harvester, and windmill for raising grain can really save nearly half of the time and effort?"

Chu Tiankuo stood at the top of all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and he bowed his hands neither humble nor overbearing, and replied without being flattered or surprised: "Return to the father, it is true, and the minister has confirmed it. Now you can let someone try it. The father will take a look." Know."

After Chu Tiankuo finished speaking, his eyes fell on the well-behaved person standing not far away.

Today, he must make a huge contribution to her!

Let her hold the token in the future to run amok in Chu country!
