Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

"I'm afraid it's Xuan, Brother Wo, it may take ten years or even twenty years to do this, and it may not be successful."

"So what? My husband is between heaven and earth, and he always does something beneficial to the people. He fights and kills, and makes meritorious deeds. Brother Guohua should just do such things. He will be in charge of the court and leave his name in history. Then It is the dream of Zhang Tianru and his generation. No matter how good the poetry is, it is just a small way. I don’t want to spend my mind on it. I can choose good seeds among the fields and live thousands of people. This thing is enough."

Chen Zilong is usually taciturn and doesn't talk much, but today he is very frank.

With such thoughts, Zhang Shouren was relieved.He vaguely remembered that when planting sweet potatoes on seeds, it is of course necessary to select good varieties, and to pay attention to some small details such as irrigation and accumulation of manure. Xu Guangqi and Chen Zilong have noticed these a long time ago, but there is a key point that the master and apprentice have not discovered. , resolved after several decades, and sweet potatoes immediately became a high-yielding crop.

As for corn, this crop was moved from South America. In China, it had to adapt to the soil and climate conditions, and it had to be consciously selected. People at that time didn’t have this kind of awareness. In the last years of Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty had already planted corn in the north. , but it really became a high-yielding crop, and it was a matter of the middle and late Kangxi period when it was popularized. [

Since Chen Zilong is not afraid of doing useless work, let him do the hard work.

"Brother lying, have you been depressed recently?"

Instead, he noticed that Chen Zilong seemed to have something on his mind, so he invited him, "Why don't you come to Dengzhou with me for a walk, and I'll take care of a few small things, so you can relax, how about it?"

Chen Zilong was about to refuse, but he really had something on his mind, and in a flash, he agreed, saying: "Wait for me to change my clothes."

His clothes were originally stored in a nearby hut, but after he changed them, he saw a turban on top, a gilt bamboo fan in his hand, and a Ning silk robe fluttering in the wind, except that his face was still weathered. In addition, it feels like a young master Pianpianjia.

"Celebrity style!"

Zhang Shouren made a comment with a smile.

These talented scholars and celebrities from the south of the Yangtze River are really full of celebrity style, and Chen Zilong has already counted them well. Those big talents like the fourth son, don't usually know what they look like?

Li Xin presided over the mining affairs a while ago, and he was also running back and forth, which was very hard work, and showed his talents in government affairs. After all, he assisted the governor in handling the military and political affairs of a province. Zhang Shouren brought him this time, and he also planned to further investigate and reuse him in the future. .

At this time, he smiled and said: "Students are probably the same, and the school of adults is very good."

"But in the Dengzhou area, scholars are very disgusted with the schools in Fushan."

"It's all stupid opinions. Not to mention the pre-Qin period, but in the Tang period, from Mingjing to Jinshi, there are also Mingshu, criminal names, calligraphy and other subjects. How can a few scriptures be enough to count the world's affairs? "Li Xin has been in contact with more practical things these days, and he said with emotion: "Scholars tend to talk big, thinking that if the state affairs are not governed according to the principles of Confucius and Mencius, it will be a disaster for the country. But when they are asked to do practical things, they say that the saints are disciples. They don't do farming, they don't practice farming and mulberry, and naturally they don't learn about businessmen. In this way, the benefits are all theirs, and the work is passed on to others, and they point fingers when they make mistakes. It's really, really shameful."
