I bring the system to tease Shihuang to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 19 Getting Ready to Sell
Sun Cheng was a little surprised to see Jun Zhao coming to Sun Cheng at this time, but he informed the king, got his consent, and invited people in.

"Why is it here at this time?"

Ying Zheng was sitting in front of the desk with his head down, looking at the bamboo slips by the dim candlelight.

Zhao Jun suddenly lost his mind for a moment.

It's not good for the eyes to see by such dim candlelight.

Zhao Jun was thinking like this, but the words came out uncontrollably.

Ying Zheng put down the bamboo slips and looked up at her.

"You don't need to take care of such trivial matters. I have something to do with the widow." Ying Zheng said lightly.

Zhao Jun was still complaining in his heart that he shouldn't talk too much, but he was a little angry when he heard Ying Zheng's reply.

Am I caring about you?When you become old in the future, I will definitely laugh at you, hum!
"Oh, um, there's something to do, it's really something big." Zhao Jun pressed down what he had or didn't have in his heart, and put the box he brought on the table.

Yingzheng has seen her in this posture before, she brought food like this last time, and now the cooking level in the palace has indeed improved, what delicious food did she bring today?

Zhao Jun put those few dishes on the table first.

Ying Zheng saw that it was indeed a new dish, so he picked up chopsticks and tasted a few mouthfuls.

It's sweet and sour, and the taste is not bad. It's refreshing to eat in this weather.

"You are looking for a widow so late just to give me food?"

Ying Zheng couldn't understand. Although this food tastes good, you can still count on me to reward you with it. It doesn't matter to me whether you eat it or not.

Ying Zheng's expression was flat, and Zhao Jun guessed that only spicy food can stimulate his taste buds.

But then Zhao Jun took out the tomatoes to show him.

"Look, my lord, this is the main point I'm going to say next. This is the fruit I planted before. He planted it with corn, but it matures half a month earlier than corn, and the yield of this vegetable can also be It reached four hundred catties."

"Really!"

Sure enough, as soon as Ying Zheng mentioned this, he became excited, and immediately stood up and listened to her seriously.

"Yes, but this kind of vegetable can't be preserved for a long time, it can only be used as a temporary vegetable in summer, but I think so, the growth of this kind of plant does not take up space, it is relatively easy to grow and has a high survival rate, and can The seeds are distributed to the people in Xianyang, and they are asked to plant some in the open space in front of and behind their houses, which can be regarded as more food."

Tomatoes are mostly grown at home. Food can be grown in the ground, and this kind of vegetable can be grown in a small yard at home.

At the beginning, when Yingzheng heard that it could not be stored for a long time, his heart fell back by half. No matter how delicious it is, no matter how high the yield is, it is useless to him if it cannot be used as storable food.

However, he understood what Zhao Jun said. Although this cannot be used as the main economic crop, it does not take up space, and every household can grow a little, and the output is not small. Compared with the current food barrenness, it is already very good.

Thinking of Ying Zheng in this way made him feel a little better.

"Well, your proposal is good. At that time, the seeds can be distributed to the people of Xianyang for free, so that they can plant them at home."

"Yes, in this way, it can show the benevolence of the king, and let them eat fresh vegetables. When the time comes to publicize this matter, wouldn't everyone want to be my Xianyang and my Daqin people? .”

When Zhao Jun said this, his fighting spirit was very high, as if he had already seen the admiring eyes of the people.

Although Ying Zheng thought so in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved to hear her firm tone. This is my good citizen of Daqin.

"My lord, there is one more thing. Now that the tomatoes have been picked, I brought a hundred catties back to the palace, but the palace may not be able to eat them all in three to five days. What are you going to do with it?"

Zhao Jun said seriously.

Ying Zheng thought for a few seconds.

"In this case, I asked Li Si to share the food with the ministers and let them take it home to eat."

This matter is not difficult to solve, Zhao Jun also thinks so, what she cares about is the four hundred catties in the field and the unripe three hundred catties.

"Your Majesty, there are still four hundred catties of plucked and immature ones in that field, who will give them to?"

"Do you have an idea?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyes and glanced at her, deliberately leaving his words in half, beating around the bush.

"If you have an idea, just say it, as long as it's a serious matter, whichever time the widow disagrees."

"Great Wang Yingming, this is what I think. Tomorrow those ripe tomatoes can be brought to the street by Wang Taicang and sold to ordinary people."

This is what Jun Zhao has thought about a long time ago, she then said
"Tomatoes won't last long. We sell them to the public at a low price, which just happens to let them taste the taste. Then when the seeds are distributed, many people will definitely be willing to plant them. What do you think, my lord?"

She finished speaking in one breath and waited to see Ying Zheng's reaction.

"The widow has no objection. Tomorrow, you can go to the Taicang order. Pay attention to safety. The widow is assigning a few people to maintain order."

Ying Zheng didn't have any objections, which was a good thing, he waved her to go back, and continued to deal with government affairs by candlelight.

Although Zhao Jun went back, he didn't sleep well all night, he was so excited.

You must know that she has been in Qin Kingdom for almost three months, but she hasn't visited Xianyang City much except for the palace and the western suburbs. She will have to visit it tomorrow.

With such a mood, she fell asleep excitedly.

The next day, the sky was clear and sunny, which was a very good weather.

Zhao Jun first came to the western suburbs and told Wang Dengxuanyang about it.

When everyone heard that these tomatoes were going to be sold publicly in Xianyang, the price was only one yuan, and the soldiers went crazy.

One money is equivalent to no money!
This is also the result of Zhao Jun and Wang Deng's discussion. Now the monthly income of ordinary people in Xianyang is about [-] yuan, and most of them are farmers. They can only save [-] yuan by selling grain for a season.

Commerce is hardly developed now, and most people are farmers and coolies.

Zhao Jun didn't want to make money from them at first, so he just wanted to half sell and half give away.

"Nv Shi, can we buy it?"

"Yeah, it's so cheap, we want to buy more."

Many soldiers began to inquire, and they also wanted to buy such a cheap thing.

"Don't worry everyone, everyone can buy it, but this thing can't be put away, so each person is limited to buy two catties, one yuan and two catties, and we will set off for the city after you have all bought it."

Zhao Jun replied loudly, this is what she guessed in advance, the price is so cheap that many people must want it, tomatoes cannot be stored for a long time, and the purchase must be restricted.

"Okay!"

The soldiers cheered when they heard his answer, and soon everyone lined up and bought their own tomatoes.

"The tomatoes are really delicious. My wife's appetite improved a lot last night."

Xuan Yang smiled and said that he had bought the fruit a long time ago.

"Okay, everyone has finished shopping, then let's go and carry the goods into the city!"
