Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 703 Sending Grapes

Every time Li Shimin wished to take out all the things in Sun Xiangfu's head, but Sun Xiangfu always had his own sense of how much he could say, and he couldn't tell him that in the future, airplanes and cannons are not considered powerful, and nuclear weapons can destroy Many times in this world!
Sun Xiangfu will only talk about the goals that he can hope to achieve, or in other words, the goals that can be achieved in Li Shimin's lifetime. This is because Li Shimin has already realized the importance of science and technology, so Sun Xiangfu decided to say more.

The two little guys, Sun Jing and Sun Wanting, immediately acted coquettishly and refused to go to school after seeing their father came back. The little monkey at home is their new favorite. Enjoying happiness and spoofing, the monkey named Wukong drove out of the house together. In her eyes, there is nothing more important than the education of the next generation of the Sun family.

The two little guys were too tired and crooked in front of him. Even if Sun Xiangfu negotiated terms with them, he couldn't do it well, because he couldn't bear to be ruthless.

So, after Sun Xiangfu took them to inspect several planting areas in Jiuyuan County, they set off for Jiangling City. Only when they said that they were going to Jiangling, the two lawless little guys didn't dare to follow because Yu Xiuer was there , Moreover, they were afraid that their father would report in front of their mother, so they honestly carried their schoolbags and went to school.

This time when he came to Jiangling City, Sun Xiangfu didn't have time to spare, he just brought a boatload of grapes to visit old acquaintances, and he couldn't do without some gifts.The [-]-acre vineyard planted by Sun Xiaomei back then has reached maturity. July, August and September are good times to eat grapes. Because there are more varieties, locals in Jiuyuan County can always eat fresh ones, so don’t underestimate them. One thousand mu, although it only bears fruit in the second year, its average yield per mu exceeds [-] jin, and some varieties even reach [-] jin per mu.

There is a well-known sentence in the grape industry in later generations, that is, there is Turpan in the north and Egongan in the south. Gongan County, which is less than a hundred miles away from Jiuyuan County, is the most important among the six major grape growing areas in my country in later generations. One of the bases, it created a record of 20 vineyards and 1000 tons of grapes in a few years. It is recorded that it is one of the places with the highest grape yield in the south. Compared with the high-yield vineyards in Turpan, the average yield per mu is only more than [-] catties.

Sun Xiangfu is naturally very dissatisfied with the current yield, because the grapes have relatively high water content. In later generations, even low-yield orchards of ordinary varieties can generally grow a yield of [-] to [-] jin. It can reach more than [-] catties, and the high-yield ones are at least [-] catties. Like the high-yield vineyards in Turpan, even if the yield is five to six thousand catties per mu, they dare not say high yield. Generally, it is more than seven thousand catties. Break through ten thousand catties.

Therefore, it can only be said to be an initial product at present, but the grapes grown are very sweet. In this era, it is not so easy for people in Datang to eat a few fresh and delicious grapes, because planting this crop is a must. It requires a lot of technology. It is different from the routine of planting common crops. The grapes grown like vegetables or saplings are usually relatively sour, and only some grapes come across a more suitable growing place by chance. Grapes, the fruit they bear, can barely be eaten. Such grapes are all offered as treasures.

Li Shimin's father and son and a group of concubines live in Jiuyuan County, probably because they can eat this kind of very sweet fresh grapes every day.

Uncle De was calling for the boatmen to move grapes to the long row of cars on the pier, while Sun Xiangfu was thinking about which houses to visit first, but he didn't want to bring his family and a team of servants to the pier Shangguanyi walked over to him.

Without waiting for him to pray, Sun Xiangfu half-jokingly said, "Seeing that the sports meeting is about to start, where are you going?"

"The Emperor's order is on me, so I have to leave immediately! I happened to meet you here, so I won't have to go to Jiuyuan County to look for you to say goodbye." Shangguanyi bowed his hands and saluted.

"Really, I guess, you are going to work in Liaodong!" Sun Xiangfu signaled that he didn't need to be polite.

When Shangguanyi heard this, she immediately understood, bowed her hands again and bowed down, "So it was you who suggested it to His Majesty, and I would like to thank you for your support and recommendation!"

Sun Xiangfu hurriedly avoided his great gift and said, "I didn't suggest it. His Majesty thought you were capable enough to govern, and you were young and strong, so he appointed you. You should not disappoint His Majesty's trust. "

Shangguanyi was originally a young supervisor of secret arts from the fourth rank, but now he has been promoted from the third rank to the chief history of the Anton Dadu Protectorate. It can be said that he has been promoted to three ranks. Moreover, his long history is not for display. Like Chang Sun Chong, he went to take over the local civil affairs. If it weren't for the bitter cold in Liaodong, the people of ethnic minorities were relatively wild, and there was also a Wa state that had not been peaceful. If Su Dingfang needed to stay in the local government, he would He is a super powerful figure in the border town like Chang Sun Chong.

You know, the people in the land he will govern after taking office are as high as two million and hundreds of thousands of households, with a population of more than 800 million!If the importance of geographical location is not considered, it is not an exaggeration for him to be called the most powerful magistrate in the Tang Dynasty.That is a much larger territory than the three eastern provinces plus Japan, South Korea and North Korea. Such an important position, if there is no big boss pushing me to the top, even if I kill Shangguanyi, I will not believe that such a good thing will fall to me in vain. on the head.

In fact, Sun Xiangfu is the best candidate for the governor of Anton in Li Shimin's mind. It's a pity that he has more important things to do, so he can only let Su Dingfang and Shangguanyi take over and share the work. .

"Your majesty will definitely live up to your Majesty's and your expectations, but when it comes to governing the multi-ethnic region in the north, you are the most experienced person in my Tang Dynasty. I just wanted to go to Jiuyuan County to ask you for advice! But I don't want to run into each other here, or let's chat on the boat!" Shangguan Yi raised his fist to the sky, and after making sure, he offered another invitation.

"Forget it, there are quite a lot of grapes here, and it will take a while to unload the boat. Let's go to your boat and have a chat! Uncle De, let someone pick a few baskets of grapes and bring them to Shangguan Changshi's boat to eat on the way."

Sun Xiangfu waved his hand to greet Uncle De to make arrangements, and boarded his boat with Chief Guanyi. After a while, Shangguanyi's family and a group of internal servants also boarded the boat, and Uncle De was selected by others. Several large baskets of grapes went on board.

This is just sitting in the cabin!Sun Xiangfu saw on the deck, a group of servants and eunuchs were picking and picking around the grape frame sent by Uncle De, and the leader was Ma Daquan or whoever it was.

Damn, she gave Shangguanyi the grapes she ate on the road, and Shangguanyi hadn't tasted them yet!These eunuchs were not polite at all, they ate first.

This kind of fresh grapes with a sweet taste can be sold for one or two yuan in the market, and a bunch of grapes worth one or two catties can be worth tens of hundreds of yuan!And it’s not something the rich can afford.

However, after a flash of displeasure flashed in Sun Xiangfu's eyes, he did not explode immediately. Instead, he pretended to ask Zhang Ke, who was guarding him, to close the door of the boat cabin and not allow anyone to approach the boat cabin. The posture of discussing confidential matters with Shangguanyi.

In fact, what Sun Xiangfu said to Shangguanyi was to tell him that although the Northeast is bitter and cold, it is also very suitable for farming. Before that, he sent a farm boy to bring more than 100 agricultural students there. This year, there will be more A large number of agricultural students brought the seeds of new crops to the past. I hope that after he arrives in the place, he will listen to the suggestions of these agricultural students, promote the agricultural development of the Northeast, especially the minority areas, and promote the farming culture to them. At the same time, do more propaganda of Han culture to improve their lives so that they can integrate into the Han nationality as soon as possible.

In addition, he also told Shang Guanyi about the construction of Seoul on the peninsula. Although it was a big project and one of the political tasks of the officials in charge of the Northeast, it would take nine years to actually use it. Nine years later, the construction technology of Datang still does not know how far it will develop!Therefore, let him not worry, first develop the local economy and improve more infrastructure that is beneficial to the development of the people.

If these aspects are detailed, it will naturally take longer. Sure enough, under the atmosphere deliberately created by Sun Xiangfu, Ma Daquan's eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

After Sun Xiangfu finally said goodbye to Shangguanyi and got off the boat, he was still staring at Sun Xiangfu's back.

On the contrary, this look in his eyes was caught by Shangguanyi in the boathouse, and he smiled wryly in his heart. This Sun Zhengming, farming and growing hair, is the best in the world, but this design is deceitful!The level is too rough, it seems that I have to help him work harder.

Since Changsun Wuji built Jiangling City as his capital, he naturally prepared some dormitory areas for high-ranking officials. Not far from the government affairs hall, there are hundreds of small three-story villas across the street. It just so happens that everyone lives in one place, and there is no need for Sun Xiangfu to run around the city. Let Uncle De lead the convoy and deliver a large basket to each family. If there is any excess, give a basket to each family of low-level officials. Anyway, this boat has a thousand stones!Enough for officials who are qualified to go to court, and each family will send it.

Of course, like Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong, if they heard someone coming to the house to deliver grapes, if there were too many old goods who ran out and intercepted two big carts, it would definitely not work.

There are more than a dozen large baskets in a large cart, at least more than 1000 catties!Two carts weighed nearly three thousand catties, and the dozen or so people they brought over to Jiangling City, even if they ate it as food, the remaining grapes turned into raisins, so they might not be able to finish them all.

In the living room of the Qin Mansion, Qin Qiong was lying on the sofa in a thin shirt. Now, he could barely move, but his complexion was horribly yellow. The original strong muscles on his body had disappeared. It is estimated that after a while, he would become thinner. skinny.

"Zhengming is here."

"Don't move Yi Gong, just lie down and talk, what does your body doctor say?" Sun Xiangfu pressed Qin Qiong who was about to get up and said.Uncle De, who was following him, quickly put a pillow on the back of his neck. However, seeing Qin Qiong like this, Uncle De's tears had already flowed down like broken beads.

Qin Qiong said very depressed, "What else can I do? Let me replenish the blood, and let me eat pork liver and red dates. Now, when I smell those things, I want to vomit."

If there is a problem with the hematopoietic function, even in later generations, there is no cure. In addition to nourishment, the only way to maintain life is to continue blood transfusions, but even blood transfusions generally cannot last for many years.

"Uncle De, bring back all the wild ginseng from our house, and let Mr. Yi take a piece in his mouth every morning and evening. That thing should be more effective than eating pork liver and red dates. In addition, I will draw some blueprints later, you Hurry up and send it to Wang Fu and the others to burn it."

"Okay, sir."
