This time-traveling fellow of hers is the current emperor, and if she is charged with any crime, her life will be played for fun! No, if the name of "Corn" reaches the ears of the emperor, she will be exposed! Absolutely not! !
"Uh..." Xiaocao murmured under Xiaojun Wang's puzzled eyes and everyone's terrified expressions, "Xiaojun Wang, the civilian girl is just a fisherman from the mountains, how can she have the right to name the new species you brought back? ? Doesn’t this take my life away? Xiaojun Wang, the daughter of the people thinks that such a precious crop should be named by the emperor, or you, the introducer, that’s right!”
Zhu Junyang saw the little girl's demeanor racking her brains to figure out a reason, and felt that the little girl in front of her looked like a small animal, that is, an alert, sensitive and interesting little squirrel. Without realizing it, the indifference in his eyes gradually melted, and an emotion he didn't know came over him.
Manager Liu Fusheng saw the slight change in his master's eyes, and while he was surprised, he felt that he should say something for his savior: "Master, the little girl's words make sense. The matter of naming the new crops is still in Beijing. Let's discuss again! Master, the noodles have been left for a long time, and they will become a lump!"
But Zhu Junyang didn't want to let this little squirrel-like girl go, and told him intuitively that this little girl must know how to grow corn. Before he went to sea, the emperor had told him that it would be best to bring him back with someone who could grow corn. It's a pity that those aborigines all have the feeling that their homeland is hard to leave. Therefore, he has not successfully fulfilled the emperor's entrustment. However, maybe the little girl in front of him can give him a different surprise!
Seeing that his master seemed to be persuaded by him, Manager Liu Fusheng turned around and walked towards the temporary accommodation. After walking two steps, Zhu Junyang stopped again, and looked back at the little girl who secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was patting her chest to make a face, almost laughing out loud. Why does this little girl have so many expressions? Compared with those delicate or dull ladies in Beijing, she is simply an outlier, a cute little outlier.
Taking a deep breath, keeping a calm expression on his face, he said to Xiaocao, who instantly regained his innocent expression, "If... I give you the seeds, can you guarantee to plant them?"
Manager Liu Fusheng took a peek at the master, secretly surprised: Today the master has really changed his nature. Not only did he take the initiative to talk to people, but he also chatted happily (Yu Xiaocao: Which eye of yours saw us chatting happily?), if Jing The princess knew it, but she didn't know what expression she would have.
You know, every time it was Princess Jing who pestered the master, and even pretended to be ill to gain sympathy, only then could the master speak a few more words. Princess Jing was always worried that her youngest son would lose the ability to speak because of this. It seems that Princess Jing's worries are unnecessary.
Yu Xiaocao sensed that the crisis was over, and quickly said with a flattering smile, "Of course! You can inquire about it, Xiaojun Wang, our family is good at farming. In this season, except for those who have hot spring villages who can grow vegetables, Our family is the only one that can grow fresh vegetables! And watermelon, our family has started breeding, and after more than two months, if you come to Tanggu again, you can eat our watermelon... I can guarantee that if our family Seeds that cannot be planted, there will be no other ones that can be planted!"
Seeing the little girl pat her chest as a guarantee, Zhu Junyang spoke so full of words, but couldn't feel the slightest hint of boasting. It seems that this little girl is full of confidence in her family's ability to farm. Maybe...he can trust her once, if he can really grow the plant seeds he brought, it will make up for the lack of this ocean voyage.
"Mr. Liu, please arrange to fetch fifty catties of corn and fifty catties of potato seeds for the little girl." After thinking for a while, Zhu Junyang decided to separate the seeds from the two crops that he brought back the most. Some, let the little girl try it. Even if you fail, it doesn't hurt.
This made Yu Xiaocao very happy. Fifty catties of corn seeds can plant at least ten acres of land! Potatoes seem to have fewer seeds, though. She looked at the little prince with shining eyes, and said weakly, "Little prince, can you give me some more potato seeds?"
Zhu Junyang looked at Yu Xiaocao with a look of "you really know potatoes". Yu Xiaocao simply smashed the can, and still stared at Xiaojun Wang's threatening eyes with expectant eyes.
"How much do you want?" Zhu Junyang no longer asked where the little girl heard about corn and potatoes. Having heard of it, it means that the probability of her being able to grow it is a little higher.
Yu Xiaocao thought for a while, and said, "At least one hundred catties, right? It's enough to plant half an acre of land..."
"I'll give you two hundred catties! Do you dare to issue a military order to definitely grow potatoes?" Zhu Junyang's intuition became clearer—this little girl might create a miracle! From childhood to adulthood, his intuition has never been wrong!
"Dare!" Yu Xiaocao replied decisively without any hesitation!
Director Liu Fusheng coughed at the side, trying to give the little girl some leeway, he explained softly: "Little girl of the Yu family, do you know that if you can't do it with the military order, you will be beheaded!"
Zhu Junyang glanced over, but didn't blame him for talking too much. Liu Fusheng secretly wiped off the cold sweat from his forehead: Master, old slave, isn't this Gu Nian's kindness to you? It's easy to be a slave!
Yu Xiaocao's eyes wandered slightly, and she continued: "Plant, I will definitely be able to plant it. The premise is that there are no natural or man-made disasters!"
Natural and man-made disasters? Zhu Junyang secretly praised the little girl's carefulness in his heart. He cannot control natural disasters; as for man-made disasters? Isn't it just a matter of his words
"Don't worry! The king will ask the county magistrate to say hello to your village chief and fully cooperate with your planting. If natural disasters are not caused by manpower, they will not be within the scope of the military order!" Zhu Junyang's decision is quite humane Yes, Xiaocao is very satisfied.
Manager Liu Fusheng saw that the little girl was full of confidence, so he stopped persuading her, and took orders to bring a few guards to a nearby carriage to fetch corn and potato seeds.
And Yu Xiaocao followed Xiaojunwang to the place where he was staying, and saw the noodles with fried sauce that had been lumped into a ball on the table, as well as their braised vegetables, hesitated for a while, and said: "Xiaojunwang, this noodle is cold It's not good, can the girl bring you another one?"
Zhu Junyang glanced at the noodles that he had just eaten a few bites, and the taste was pretty good. As for the stewed vegetables, before he had time to taste them, he saw the little girl hunched over behind the dock workers, bending down from time to time to pick up something from the ground. After a few mouthfuls of noodles, he no longer felt so uncomfortable, so driven by curiosity, he walked over to see what she was picking up. Unexpectedly, his curiosity found a treasure!
Zhu Junyang ordered a young eunuch beside him to go to the noodle stall to buy noodles. He asked someone to fetch the Four Treasures of the Study, and wrote down the military order in a frantic manner. He was afraid that the little girl would not be able to read, so he read the content to her.
Seeing the content of the military order, Yu Xiaocao has nothing difficult to achieve, not to mention that she has grown corn and potatoes in her previous life, but she has never grown them. She has the cheating tool of Lingshi water, which can revive dead plants. What are you afraid of! Without any hesitation, she picked up the brush and signed her name. After practicing brush calligraphy with my younger brother for a period of time, my name is fairly correct.
Now the daughter of the peasant family can also read and write? The doubts in Zhu Junyang's heart were never revealed, so he handed over the dried military order to Manager Liu who had just returned with the seeds, and then sat down firmly, picked up the chopsticks and pointed at the red "red oil ear silk" "Pinch it. The ear silk is crunchy, slightly spicy, very appetizing.
When the hot Zhajiang noodles came, he had already eaten half of the shredded ear. Xiaocao pointed to the fat intestines and reminded: "Little Junwang, this is a little cold, you can put the noodles under it to scald it before eating, or let someone warm it up at our stall..."
Zhu Junyang paused when he heard the address of "Little County King", but he didn't say anything, he just waved his hands at Yu Xiaocao. Manager Liu hurried over and said in a low voice: "Little girl of the Yu family, the county king asked you to step down! Come on, the miscellaneous family will send you the seeds!"
After dismissing the idlers, Zhu Junyang looked at the dish of fat intestines, thought for a while, picked up two pieces and buried them in the hot noodles, picked them out after a while, put them in his mouth, chewed and tasted them carefully. This fat sausage is Xiaocao's best dish. When it comes out of the pan, it is golden in color, tender and tender, with a salty and fragrant taste. It is suitable for all ages, and people will never get tired of eating it.
Zhu Junyang, who was born in a princely family, has never been exposed to offal and other foods. If he hadn't experienced the hardships of the sea voyage, he might not have touched the food in front of him. However, after eating a piece of fat sausage, Zhu Junyang felt that the taste was not bad, so he put a few more pieces into the noodles.
Commander Fang, who had been standing silently by the side, watched King Yang eat fat intestines one by one, and was full of curiosity about this kind of food in his heart—he would buy a copy and try it when the guard changed later. !
Xiaocao returned to her stall, thanked Chief Manager Liu, happily harvested the corn and potato seeds, planning to eat delicious grilled corn in autumn, and fried a plate of hot and sour potato shreds that she missed... That feeling was really too much. Happy! !
When Fang Da's imperial envoy came over, the stall was welcoming a small rush for dinner. Seeing that the girl was so busy that her feet didn't touch the floor, Mr. Fang couldn't sit still anymore, and took up the role of serving the dishes. All the dock workers knew him. The imperial envoy is bold and has no airs. The workers all like him very much. He joked: "To be able to eat the noodles served by the imperial envoy himself is really a blessing for three lifetimes!"
Fang Fangzhen smiled heartily and said: "Eat more! Work hard when you are full!! After the port is built, do you still worry about whether you will enjoy it?"
Most of these workers are regular employees of the firm. The new port not far from the old pier seems to have begun to take shape, more than twice the size of the old pier. Not far from the port is a commercial street. Although the shop has not been built yet, the scale of it can already be seen. What Mr. Fang said is, with such a big port, they still worry about whether they can do anything? The wages of dock porters have doubled compared to before, and it will only get better in the future!
