Great Emperor's Grandson of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 31 031 Carrying a treasure without knowing it
Thinking this, his eyes gradually became firmer and he raised his head decisively.

"Your Majesty actually doesn't know much about this potato farmer."

"In fact, the people who have really seen this thing should be the ancestors of the grass people."

"But they have not grown this plant on a large scale, so they don't know how much it can produce."

"The only thing they know is that this thing is highly poisonous! Even if it is swallowed in a small amount, there is a danger of death."

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yuanzhang felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him: "In other words, this thing is actually inedible at all?"

[Sure enough, he is just a child. He only listened to half of everything and made trouble for a long time. This so-called sacred object that can produce a thousand catties per mu is actually just a poisonous weed. 】

Not far away, the two old men also looked at each other and silently expressed their disappointment.

Only Zhu Congxin was slightly surprised, and at the same time, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

[No wonder! 】

[I was wondering why potatoes were not popularized in Europe until the [-]th century. It turned out to be because people at that time were very valuable and didn’t realize it. 】

Thinking of this, he even couldn't help but smile with emotion.

As for the saying that "a small amount can cause death", it is easier to explain.

To put it bluntly, it was actually because the group of victims were too weak.

After all, they were a group of people who had been hungry for three days.

They have all experienced the invasion of cold wind and rain.

In addition, there is no suitable treatment method after poisoning.

It is reasonable to die in this way.

Otherwise, those dignitaries in ancient times would not often die from colds and fevers.

".That's because they eat potatoes with sprouts."

Thinking of this, he directly explained.

Unfortunately, after hearing these words, Zhu Yuanzhang still did not dispel his doubts: "Does that mean that these potatoes are indeed poisonous?"

He only clung to the poisonous nature of potatoes.

Because in his logic.

"Toxic" means "cannot be eaten".

And for "inedible" things, no matter how high the yield per acre is, it means nothing to him.

"Taro is also poisonous, but it's still edible!"

"Grandpa Emperor, you should be lucky that to this day, those Europeans have not discovered the correct way to eat potatoes."

"Otherwise, those who are satisfied in a foreign land will not live in a corner like they do now."

"They will be well fed! This will give them more time to think, learn, and explore!"

"Then without realizing it, we create more and more practical artifacts, even weapons."

Zhu Congxin frowned and quickly argued.

He was already close to saying that the Chinese people would be enslaved by those people in a few hundred years.

But even so, Zhu Yuanzhang still looked indifferent.

"How can a mere agricultural product be as magical as you say?"

"You are too alarmist."

He even smiled disdainfully.

There's actually nothing wrong with that.

After all, at that time, there were really few beings in the entire world who could compete with Ming Dynasty.

Even the [Khuharli Kingdom] founded in 1370, that is, the country that once conquered [Khorazm], [Again Khan (deliberately typed incorrectly to prevent blocking)], all of Persia, northern India, [Mamluks] It was only after 20 years that the Timurid Empire finally had the courage to conquer the Ming Dynasty.

But that time, Timur died suddenly during the expedition.

Then, the entire Timur Empire completely collapsed.

A country like this, whose political power is not very stable, naturally has no qualifications to compare with the Ming Dynasty.As for the Ottoman Empire at that time.
They did fight the Timur Empire once, but lost.

It's a pity that the Timur Empire did not pursue the victory and only wanted to conquer the Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, in the future world, there may be nothing to do with the Ottomans.

But he laughed, and he didn't give up completely.

"Let's do this! Go and call your master who is hiding his head and tail!"

"Let's talk to him face to face!"

"If he really has the ability to rule the world, we can make an exception and forgive him the crime of trespassing in the forbidden palace, and give him a decent official position!"

"It doesn't matter if he's a boy or a girl!"

"Or maybe he's a eunuch!"

He said with flashing eyes.

It seemed that he wanted to take this opportunity to ask for information about the mysterious teacher again.

In fact, since Zhu Congxin showed his qualifications, he has never stopped investigating.

The previous move of Zhu Congxin to Xihe Hall might have been with the intention of luring the snake out of its hole.

But unfortunately, after five whole days, there was still no movement from Mao Xiang's side.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have people staring at such a hairy kid all day long.

However, the next moment, Zhu Congxin's answer made him stunned for a moment.

"But the master has already left."

He said so.

As he spoke, he once again acted innocently.

This is his trump card.

In the past, no matter who it was, it was always unfavorable.

So this time, he also determined that Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely believe in him.

But
Is this really going to be the case?
"Have you left?"

"Is it such a coincidence?"

That is to say, when Zhu Congxin thought that the matter was about to end, looking at Zhu Congxin who was steadfast in his vow, Zhu Yuanzhang actually showed a rare hint of anger.

Yes!

He didn't believe Zhu Congxin's words at all.

Because since that day, he has repeatedly strengthened the defense inside and outside the imperial city.

Such a tight blockade!
Even if the other party is a peerless master who knows how to fly over walls and fly over walls, he will never believe that the other party can escape quietly under his nose!

【snort!I thought that after that day of heart-to-heart talk, this guy would tell me the truth.I didn’t expect that today, he would still be so wary of me!What an immature bastard! 】

And the more he observed Zhu Congxin's expression, the more certain he became.

But anger was anger, and in order not to alert others, he finally calmed down his emotions slowly.

[Forget it. Let’s take it slow! 】

[After all, he is just a precocious child! 】

[Let’s find an opportunity in two days and give him some benefits. I don’t believe we can’t pry his mouth open! 】

He said to himself secretly.

Then, a burst of love rose up on his face again, and he took Zhu Congxin off the bed: "Forget it. Just leave! Since you don't want to be used by me, then I will just pretend that he has never come out. It's over. By the way! Didn't you just say there were three things to report? Now there are only two. What is the last one? "

Knowing that this meant no further discussion, Zhu Congxin sighed silently and finally gave up his efforts.

"It's Liuli! In addition to helping you get potatoes, this Europa man also knows how to refine Liuli." He said still looking innocent.

When they heard that this person actually knew how to refine colored glaze, the three old men present were finally surprised again.
