Chapter 206 Sweet Potatoes
"Uh... is this for food?" Gao Dali asked in surprise.

Emperor Ganwu was also full of doubts: "I am rich in the world, what have I never eaten, why haven't I seen this thing? What is this thing called?"

Li Changfeng smiled and said, "This is called sweet potato."

"What a strange name, can I eat it?"

"Of course it can be eaten... I said, Lao Gao, what are you still doing? Why don't you send someone to the imperial dining room?"

Gao Dali didn't dare to call the shots, and looked at Emperor Qianwu.

Emperor Ganwu waved his hand: "Send it, can my son still harm me?"

Gao Dali immediately beckoned, and a little eunuch walked over with small steps. After explaining something, the little eunuch picked up the bag and left, but was stopped by Li Changfeng.

"Who asked you to take them all? Three, only three!" Li Changfeng shouted.

Benjamin said there were thousands more in the hold, but what if they broke down, got robbed, or disappeared for some other reason?
Who knows when it will be the next time I can eat sweet potatoes.

In the previous life, this thing was worthless at all, and it was even used to feed pigs in the countryside, but it was a rare thing in this world, and he couldn't bear to give it all to Emperor Qianwu.

The little eunuch was startled, and carefully took out three sweet potatoes and took them away. Gao Dali was a little surprised, and Emperor Qianwu laughed and scolded: "Stinky boy, isn't it just something that grows out of the soil, how much is it worth? You are stingy!" look."

Li Changfeng raised his chin: "Father, when you understand the magical effect of this sweet potato, you will feel that you have taken a huge advantage if you are asked to exchange an equal weight of gold with your son."

"It's a joke!" Emperor Ganwu sneered, but he felt more and more that this sweet potato was not simple, and asked: "Then tell me, what is the difference between this sweet potato?"

Li Changfeng shook his head: "How boring is it to say it now? Let's talk about it after the sweet potatoes are ripe and taste the taste."

If ordinary people dared to do this, they would have been pulled out and hacked long ago. This is Li Changfeng, and Emperor Qianwu could only sigh helplessly.

"Stinky boy, you are so grown up, you are still like a child!"

Emperor Ganwu stopped reviewing the memorial at all, and chatted with Li Changfeng, and half an hour passed in a blink of an eye.

The little eunuch walked in with the steamed sweet potatoes carefully, Gao Dali took out the silver needles and inserted them one by one to try, then nodded to Emperor Qianwu.

"Hey, one person, one child, you're welcome!"

Li Changfeng took the biggest one with a swish, and quickly opened it, his eyes lit up immediately.

"Hearts!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the heat, so he quickly took a bite and chewed carefully, with a satisfied and happy face, he said vaguely: "That's the taste!"

Li Changfeng was a little excited.

It's been ten years!
Finally got sweet potatoes!
Emperor Ganwu knew better than anyone how good Li Changfeng was at eating, seeing his expression made him interested, picked one up, broke it open and took a light bite.

Immediately, Emperor Ganwu's eyes lit up.

Then he started to eat, with a satisfied and happy expression on his face.

Seeing that Emperor Qianwu actually showed such an expression, Gao Dali swallowed involuntarily, just in time for Li Changfeng to see him.

"I said Lao Gao, why don't you eat?"

Gao Dali laughed dryly and said, "I don't dare to do this, so let Your Majesty and His Highness eat."

Li Changfeng picked up the last one and stuffed it into Gao Dali's hand: "If you tell you to eat, you can eat it!"

Emperor Ganwu said vaguely while eating: "It's okay, let's eat, don't you see there is still more in the bag?"

Li Changfeng snorted without saying anything, and Gao Dali thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

Then took a bite.

The next moment, Gao Dali also showed a happy and contented smile in his eyes, and his eyes were glistening.

It is so delicious!
He had never eaten such delicious food.

The three sweet potatoes were all relatively big, and Emperor Qian Wu was a little bit full after eating, and sat on the chair with a look of aftertaste.

"Delicious, indeed delicious."

Li Changfeng lay on the chair without any image, patted his belly, laughed and said, "Of course."

Emperor Qianwu was not polite: "Leave them all, I like them very much."

Li Changfeng rolled his eyes at him: "Stay? Father, what do you think? I'm just for you to see and taste."

Emperor Ganwu's face darkened: "Stinky boy, do you know that you are resisting the decree and deceiving the king?"

Li Changfeng snorted and said, "Sweet potatoes yield 1000 jin per mu."

Emperor Qianwu was stunned for a moment, then jumped up from the dragon chair with a swish, completely losing his calm bearing as an emperor, and exclaimed: "What did you say!?"

Now, regardless of whether it is rice in the south or wheat in the north, due to the impact of planting irrigation techniques and varieties, the yield per mu can only reach about [-] catties, and the best fertile land is only close to [-] catties, which can be described as extremely low. .

Otherwise, there will be no food shortage in Dagan.

He has eaten sweet potatoes, which can almost be used as a staple food. Such a high yield has a far-reaching impact, which is more important than growing vegetables in winter.

As long as it spreads across the country, the famine will be completely eradicated, and the people will have enough to eat, so who will commit rebellion?
Li Changfeng also knew the significance of this matter, so he sat up straight and said seriously, "It's a conservative estimate for 1000 or [-] catties, even [-] catties or even [-] catties is not impossible, and sweet potatoes don't require as much soil as rice and wheat. It is harsh and can be grown in most areas of Dagan."

Hearing Li Changfeng's words, Emperor Qianwu's calm state of mind never changed. At this moment, turbulent waves rolled up, he directly grabbed Li Changfeng's shoulder and asked sharply: "My son Changfeng, you must be lying to me, right?!"

Emperor Qianwu couldn't believe it was true.

Li Changfeng broke away from Emperor Ganwu's hand with some disgust and said: "Didn't you believe me when I said that I planted vegetables in winter? What happened? Besides, this food was brought by people from the foreign countries, and those people are still eating at my minister's place." Hold on, if you don’t believe me, you can call over and ask!”

Emperor Qianwu looked at Li Changfeng carefully for a while, and then burst out laughing. The sound came out of the imperial study room, and the imperial forest army could hear it hundreds of meters away.

"Ha ha……"

"Good! That's great!"

"With sweet potatoes, why worry about the uncertainty of the world?"

"I hope to do great things, hope to do great things!"

Emperor Ganwu kept laughing. Li Changfeng understood his excitement and waited patiently. After his voice had dropped a lot, he said again: "These were brought over by people from the Fanbang who sailed for more than half a year, and the quantity is very small."

Emperor Ganwu laughed and said, "It's really not easy."

Li Changfeng knew that Emperor Qianwu hadn't realized the importance of the sweet potatoes in front of him, so he added another sentence.

"Father, what you eat are seeds!"

Emperor Qianwu was stunned for a moment, and then showed a painful expression on his face.

"Seed?! Brat, why didn't you say it earlier?"

As he spoke, he ran to the sweet potato bag and squatted down, complaining while cleaning it up.

"If I knew it was a seed, I would just steam one and taste it. It's a waste, what a waste, brat!"

Li Changfeng chuckled: "Father, my son is asking you now, will you exchange the same amount of gold?"
