Settle Down In Tang Dynasty

"Young Yang, watch the sparse playing!"

Li Er said that the palace people immediately gave Du Yan's Shuo to Xue Lang -

Xue Lang's reading level of classical Chinese today is not a problem if there is no substitute for taboo. However, in ancient times, taboo was very important to the noble, the taboo of the elders in the family, and he often borrowed various allusions. Xue Lang had a headache when he was reading through the visitors. After learning for so many years, his reading and writing level of classical Chinese has not improved much.

When I read with Princess Pingyang and her husband and wife together, I can still ask for advice when I see something I don't understand. Outside the mansion, Xue Lang has given up. If you can't read, you can't read it. It's really painful.

Fortunately, Du Yan's sparse play was not much allusions because it was a document. Xue Lang even read it with a guess, and he could understand seven or eight points, which had little impact on his understanding.

After reading, Xue Lang is very happy. On the one hand, he is happy that the things he brought back and promoted can really work and save people's lives; on the other hand, these are also credit! Although it's unfair, the credit is the credit, of course you can be happy.

After seeing Xue Lang, Li Er asked, "Wang Xian said that Youyang has always been responsible for the promotion of sweet potato and potato. Why is it that the promotion of sweet potato and potato is good in Central China, but not in Guanzhong?"

Xue Lang Chao Wang Xian took a look at it and replied, "Your Majesty, it's not that the promotion in Guanzhong can't be carried out. There are objective reasons."

"Why? I'd like to hear more about it. "

Li Er immediately asked.

Xue Lang said: "Guanzhong has always been a grain producing area, which is convenient for farming. In addition, because of the convenient climate, the popularization of water conservancy facilities, the large population, and the sufficient labor force, the annual yield can be achieved in a favorable year. No matter how good sweet potatoes and potatoes are, if you eat them for one or two meals, how can their taste and taste compare with grains! Guanzhong occupies a favorable time, place and people's convenience. It can grow more delicious and taste better food. Who will go to a variety of sweet potatoes and potatoes? Naturally, planting food is the first choice! "

Xue langdun, Li Er Ruo nodded thoughtfully.

Xue Lang continued: "when I was in the Ministry of the people's Republic of China, I focused on the promotion of sweet potato and potato. At that time, I selected Wan Siming as the director and organized a propaganda team to go to all parts of the country to publicize and guide the cultivation technology and convenience of sweet potato and potato. Wan Siming once paid back that because of the easy cultivation and high yield of sweet potato and potato, all localities had the willingness to plant, but in the traditional grain producing areas, The enthusiasm is not high, and the enthusiasm is not very high, especially for potatoes, because the willingness to grow potatoes is not high because of the need to cultivate in fields with water. On the contrary, sweet potatoes are resistant to drought and drought. There are also dry lands in the grain producing areas, so that some people are willing to cultivate them. In Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan, with the exception of a few places, there are not many paddy fields and low grain yields. Naturally, they are very interested in sweet potato and potato and are willing to cultivate more, which can be regarded as a supplement to grain. "

With that, he took a look at Wang Xian with an unknown meaning, and immediately described the cultivated area and types of cultivation in various places at that time, which was like a treasure of every family. Then Xue Lang also calculated the harvest of sweet potatoes and potatoes in these places this year, and explained some situations not mentioned in Du Yan's shuzuo. After listening to the minister's frequent glances, even Li Er's eyes were brilliant. Only Wang Xianru's face was pale after his death.

Xue Lang specially looked at Wang Xian. The minister and Li Er in the palace were all human beings. Naturally, he saw it. Du Ruhui laughed to himself and praised: "I've heard that Xue's son-in-law has been well-known for a long time. I can't forget what I've seen for a long time. Today, I really appreciate the reputation and admiration!"

This is the welfare of the wearer, but it's not my real ability!

Xue Lang was praised a little guilty, repeatedly arch hand way: "praise, praise, erudite, not dare to remember, but better memory."

Du Ruhui said with a smile: "is it just memory? In my opinion, if there is no hard work and hard work, only by good memory, then all things will not be achieved. I think that there must be a son-in-law's steadfast and diligent work, otherwise, how can we still be like a family treasure after several years? Can we still roughly infer the situation in recent years only from the old data? Because at the beginning, he had studied and done with his heart. He knew everything in the Ministry of the people's Republic of China like the palm of one's hand. Only then did he have the same family treasures as today. "

By Du Ruhui such a point, people suddenly, look at Xue Lang's eyes can not help but a little praise. The most afraid thing in the world is heart. As long as you are careful, there are few things that can't be done.

Xue Lang naturally wanted to be modest when he was praised so much. He even said, "I'm flattered by Du Shizhong. I'm just trying to do my duty in his position. I don't want to live on a plain meal and live up to the holy grace."

When they heard this, they nodded in their hearts. The king who Li Er Ruo had pointed out glanced at him and said, "I know what Youyang says and does, but some people can't even do their duty."

Wang Xian's face was whiter and he knelt on his knees. Li Er snorted coldly and ignored him.

Xue Lang raised his eyebrows and lost interest in the pain. He thought of one thing and quickly arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, there is one thing you need to guard against."

"What's the matter?"

Xue Lang said: "when I was a florist, I had heard of the need to guard against floods after a drought. Florists have also recorded that after the drought in the north, there will be floods in the south in the coming year; if the south is dry, the north will suffer from floods. A few days ago, I specially checked that the areas where droughts occurred in the past two years were mostly along the northern line. In the coming year, the southern generation should pay attention to it. If there is an unfortunate flood disaster It's better to prepare in advance. "All of them were surprised. Li Er and his ministers had not said anything. Wang Xian already called out: "Your Majesty, your majesty, Xue Lang is bewitching people. I ask your majesty to punish Xue Lang's crime!"

Xue Lang stood still and did not even lift his eyelids. Li Er and his officials looked at Wang Xian almost like a fool. Wang Xian even saw a trace of pity in the eyes of the eldest sun Wuji, and he couldn't help being a little bit confused -

What's the meaning of this?

Wang Xian doesn't understand!

Xue Lang was indifferent and didn't care. When he thought of the drought, he thought of the locust disaster next year and the flood in Xuzhou in the same year.

The occurrence of locust plague, he can also use the large number of eggs in the soil as proof to confirm his statement. But what can we say about the flood?

Xue Lang's reserve of scientific knowledge is not enough for him to use simple and easy to understand words, nor can he find evidence to support his prediction. He is easily said to be a hoax.

After thinking about it, Xue Lang can only start with the locust disaster, so that people can understand that he is not a person who talks casually and misleads the public. He should establish his image of being down-to-earth, earnest and well grounded. Then, when he talks about the flood disaster, he can think of a higher degree of credibility.

In fact, if there must be a flood after the drought, there will be no scientific evidence before he passes through. He does not know whether there will be scientists to prove other theories later.

However, some people on the Internet have counted that if there is drought in the south, there will be a lot of floods in the north, and there will be a lot of disaster exchanges between the north and the south. It is said that this phenomenon can be explained by science, but Xue Lang didn't pay attention to the specific scientific explanation. Now, naturally, there is no way to talk about it. In any case, the locusts are the eggs of fish and shrimps, and this absurd statement can still be published in various documents. Xue Lang only talked about the disasters that will happen in the historical records, but he is not talking about it casually.

Historical events and people may change because of the butterfly wing effect, but climate disasters, even if the butterfly breaks its wings, will not affect it. Xue Lang thinks that the climate law should not change. This is the real world, not the fantasy world, climate Ordinary people's Xue Lang still can't affect.
