Li Yuanfang will mention Champa rice, which is actually somewhat related to the current construction of agricultural irrigation projects.

Under the current national conditions of the Tang Dynasty, the average field system is implemented in China.

The system of equal land affirms the ownership and occupation rights of land, reduces disputes over land and facilitates the reclamation of ownerless wasteland, thus playing a positive role in the recovery and development of agricultural production.

It was conducive to freeing dependent peasants from the control of the powerful and powerful ethnic groups and transforming them into state-organized households, greatly increasing the number of government-controlled yeomanry and small farmers, ensuring the source of servitude, and thus strengthening the authoritarian centralization.

This system also has major drawbacks.

As the population of the Tang Dynasty gradually increased, the clans, the powerful and the powerful and corrupt officials would take the public land for private property, and it would be impossible to implement land grants, so land annexation would still break out.

Even if potatoes were popularized, the staple foods were rice and wheat, two crops that could not be grown.

There are too few potatoes in his hands, and I don’t know how many years it will take to promote the whole Tang.

Studying hybrid rice?

Hehe, the distant water can’t save the near fire, the Great Tang is in urgent need of food at present, and the whole country is looking for more mouths and waiting to be fed.

There is not enough food for the people, and those who do not have enough to eat can not make trouble? Can society not be chaotic? Where does society come from the days of peace and pleasure?

The most important thing is that the army can’t eat enough, how to protect the country?

Seeking grain varieties to solve the food problem is particularly important at this time.

With current seafaring technology, it is impossible to go to other continents in search of grain.

Only Linyi is a very special place, which can be reached from land, and the rice seeds here can be lost three times a year.

Considering various factors, Li Yuanfang couldn’t hold back in his heart and not say anything, first of all, he couldn’t live with a little conscience.

“Lin Yi is alias Champa, so Champa rice is the rice grown in Champa?” Du Ruxian frowned slightly: “But the rice grain there is different from my Great Tang’s?” ”

Du Xiang hit with a word. Li Yuanfang gave a thumbs up to him: “The climate of Lin Yi Country is hot and humid all year round, and there is a rice species in China called Zhancheng rice three times a year, so that the people of the country are not afraid of hunger no matter how lazy they are.” ”

“Three crops a year?” Changsun Wuji was the first to disbelieve: “His Royal Highness King Zhou is afraid that he is either hearsay or daydreaming.” ”

“Ninth brother, I don’t know anything about farming anymore, and I know that there is no grain that is cooked three times a year.” Li Shimin shook his head with a wry smile.

“If there really are three crops of rice in the world, why will the people of my Central Plains suffer from famine repeatedly.” Fang Xuanling let out a long sigh, and he didn’t believe this in his heart.

Li Yuanfang ignored everyone’s doubts, but instead smiled lightly to justify.

“In the process of making Linglong Mountains and Rivers to rummage through books, when I found out about the Han Dynasty, I mentioned the anecdote that double-cropping rice was planted in Lingnan, but it was only regarded as a rumor by the imperial court, and no one believed it.”

“Champa rice has many characteristics. First, it is drought tolerant. Second, it is adaptable and born regardless of the place. Third, the growth period is short, such as Lin Yi Guo’s local self-planting to harvest only more than 50 days. ”

“According to the degree of humid and hot climate, the more humid and hot the place, the more times it can be cultivated in a year, and the climate of Lingnan Dao is imitation of the forest, which can be ripened three times a year.”

“A little north of the Jiangnan Dao generation, it is roughly estimated that it is not a problem to ripen twice a year, even if it is the northernmost place of my Great Tang Dynasty, it can be ripened once a year.”

“Even if this rice seed is a season, the yield per mu can be three or four stones, which is more than the current rice mu yield in various places in my Tang Dynasty, so you should think about the fact that two and three seasons are true, why should my Tang Dynasty have no grain?”

When everyone present heard this, their faces changed drastically.

Hube Shangshu Xiao Yu was concerned about his own work, and suddenly heard such a grain seed, and his heart plopped down and beat non-stop.

He was in charge of the world’s money and grain, and at that time he understood the importance of food better than anyone.

At this thought, Xiao Yu stared at Li Yuanfang with a solemn expression.

Since the little disciple said it solemnly, it proved that Lin Yi’s state-owned grain planting was true.

And this news… In the past, I was afraid that people who listened to it took it as a joke.

God, this is a crime!

Without waiting for Xiao Yu to complain, Du Ruxian’s divine assist arrived.

I saw that Du Ruxian frowned and said while recalling.

“The old man remembers that this is how Lin Yiguo is described in some books.”

“The people in Lin Yi are not civilized, the domestic farming methods are rough, and it doesn’t matter if you plant rice seeds when you plant the land.”

Li Yuanfang laughed and gave Du Ruxian a thumbs up.

“Haha, the farming over there is so simple and rude.”

“The cultivated land is not deep, the seedlings are not moved, the seedlings are not watered, the fertilizer is not applied, and the drought and floods are not cared for.”

“But there is a backwardness there, people in the country can fill their stomachs, and the word famine has never been heard.”

What? The people don’t know what a famine is?!

Li Shimin was completely shocked and looked at Li Yuanfang intently.

Everyone else looked stunned.

Continuing to stare at everyone’s gaze, Li Yuanfang’s expression was always relaxed and indifferent.

The more indifferent the attitude, the more everyone felt that their blood was boiling.

Li Shimin abruptly stood up from the dragon chair, grabbed Li Yuanfang’s shoulders, and asked with excitement in his voice.

“Ninth brother, what is said by Champa Daozhi, are you really sure?”

“No falsehood!”

Li Yuanfang bowed his head slightly, sonorously and forcefully assured.

These words fell like a heavy hammer, shaking everyone’s feet so soft.

God, if such a high-quality rice seed can be found, everyone present can go down in history.

In the end, it was the emperor who was magnificent, and all of Li Shimin’s emotions of shock, wandering, and so on, finally condensed into a firm color.

“Feng Le!”

“In.”

“Speedy Transmission Hongxu Temple Qing Audience.”

“No!”

Feng Le turned around abruptly, saluted respectfully and left.

“Your Majesty is wise, and there is no one who knows the matter of Fanbang better than the Hongluo Temple.”

Changsun Wuji smiled and said flatteringly.

Hearing this, Li Shimin shook his head with a smile.

……

“Minister, Tang Jian see Your Majesty.”

Not long after, Tang Jian, the secretary of the Hongluo Temple, returned with Feng Le, and Tang Jian bowed to Li Shimin for the first time, and immediately asked when he got up.

“His Majesty specially sent General Manager Feng to look for the old minister, but what was the rush?”

“Tang Aiqing, sit.” Li Shimin asked Tang Jian to sit down.

“Thank you Your Majesty for taking a seat.” Tang Jian sat down obediently and asked his colleagues with his eyes what was going on.

Fang Xuanling silently replied with two words: “Good thing.” ”

Tang Jian immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he caught this information.

Good things are good, he is afraid that those who Turkic people who ask for peace have not left, and what kind of moths have come out in the past few days.

Seeing Tang Jian sitting down steadily, Li Shimin asked slowly.

“Tang Aiqing is serving as the secretary of the Hongluo Temple, and the countries around my Great Tang should know something, right?”

“Well, regarding the foreign guests of the Hongluo Temple, we need to always understand the habits of all ethnic groups, so that we can better complete our work.”
