In terms of geographical location, the Taihe Palace cannot be counted in Huxian County, nor in Wannian County. It is located at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, facing Chang'an from a distance, and has the potential of confronting the north and the south. Starting from the Huxian county government office to go to the Taihe Palace is about the same distance as going to the Taihe Palace from Chang'an City, but this does not affect Li Yuanying's idea.
Now that we are here, how about riding a horse to Hu County, picking some grapes, and tasting a watermelon, wouldn’t it be great? After Li Yuanying finished mobilizing, he was full of confidence in the future development of Hu County, so he took Wei Shu to see melons with great interest. The system that didn't want to disappear for a long time at this time poured cold water on him, telling him that this melon might not be too sweet, nor too red.
Li Yuanying was a little puzzled when he saw that it had grown bigger than a fist in a few days. Isn't it big, sweet and juicy? Why is it not sweet anymore? Why is it not popular anymore? The system introduced him to the situation of this melon. Because this melon was introduced from the west, it was later called watermelon. Although it has been artificially bred for generations, it is not perfect. For example, there may be corn in this era, but corn kernels It may be shriveled and small, no different from ordinary weeds.
Li Yuanying asked the system how artificial breeding is selected.
The system introduced it to him. The most common artificial breeding is of course to select the best seeds for each generation. If you want big seeds, you can choose big ones. If you want juicy ones, you can choose juicy ones. If you want red, pick the red ones; there is also a common method of grafting, which is to graft branches from one kind of fruit tree to another kind of fruit tree. If a kind of fruit is unpalatable but grows strong, you can graft the branches of the former to the latter to make it resistant to cold and disease; later, the method of hybridization appeared, trying to artificially pollinate the pollen of this flower Go to another flower to get more varieties to choose from; later on, you can even transform animals and plants at will according to your own needs.
As for how to modify the method, because those technologies are too far away from this era, the system did not continue to disclose.
But this is enough, Li Yuanying pondered for a while, transcribed what the system said, and asked someone to take it to Dong Xiaoyi to try it out. Li Yuanying also discussed with the system: "Didn't it mean that there must be a control group for any research? You can get me some big and red watermelon seeds you mentioned, and I will plant some for them to compare and breed, so that they There is a direction."
The system felt that this was quite reasonable. Doesn't the experiment have to have a control? Now that the corn and peanuts have been obtained, it is not bad for watermelon. It just so happens that the reward for the dinosaur fossils has not been issued last time, so the system opened an exchange channel for Li Yuanying, allowing him to freely exchange for watermelon seeds, and even choose varieties.
Li Yuanying was dazzled by the sight, and he was very envious of the life of future people: "They can eat so many ways!" Just watermelons include seeded ones, seedless ones, red ones, yellow ones, and even watermelons. There are skin flowers, yellow skins, and green skins. Let’s take a look at how to eat it, it’s also suitable for squeezing with a spoon, and it can be frozen for brewing! Some people have time to carve flowers with watermelons!
Because I can only choose one variety for the time being, Li Yuanying looked around, and finally discarded the seedless one, and chose a seeded one with thin skin and juicy to exchange for a batch. Dong Xiaoyi must be able to grow the seeds by himself. , otherwise it would be too much trouble for him to exchange it by himself. He exchanged a batch of seeds, and called Dai Ting to take the seeds to Dong Xiaoyi, and asked Dong Xiaoyi to take care of them well, and if the weather was not right, he would move them into the greenhouse to raise them, anyway, he had to plant them.
Dai Ting took a look, and it was obvious that Li Yuanying gave watermelon seeds as well, but there was a slight difference in their appearance. He nodded without asking further questions. The freedom he has now and everything he has now are all given by Li Yuanying. If Li Yuanying is good, he will be fine; So he will never question Li Yuanying's words, let alone betray anything about Li Yuanying, including these things of unknown origin.
Dai Ting took the order to go, Li Yuanying didn't think about it any more, everyone who could be mobilized was mobilized, and the rest was to see if everyone could work together. Facts have proved that the bait thrown by Li Yuanying is still very fragrant. Hu County is not big or small, and there are quite a lot of well-to-do people. Within a few days of Li Yuanying's arrival, he turned the county government upside down, and even wiped out the hidden fields and households of the Yin family. Many people thought that this little prince was not easy to mess with. Who knew that if the result dissatisfied him, he would not Will repeat the old trick
Many people pinched their noses and admitted it with such thoughts.
As a result, they were going to try to recognize a pavilion or something, but when they arrived at the place, they found that all the small buildings had been claimed, and almost none of them were claimed by people from Hu County, but by passing merchants from neighboring counties. These outside merchants got the news, and based on the principle of asking to see if they could get their own share, the result was really good. The county government said that although it was to give the people of Hu County a chance, everyone had the heart to do so. I have to accept it, so I can only divide them into some small buildings, and the big ones still have to be left to the people of Hu County!
Come on, if they don't claim a big guy, don't they want to say that they don't have the heart? !
However, those merchants from other places still surrounded the county government office, saying that if the people in Huxian County couldn't afford the money, they would claim it all, and they were not short of the money.
It is tolerable or unbearable!
It really made these outsiders stand out, how can they hold their heads up in front of the villagers in the future? And someone came to rob it, and they realized that this is really a good thing. After passing this village, there will be no such shop! So the servants who came to register and claim the pavilions hurried back to ask for advice from their families. In the end, all the heads of the houses came in person. This time, they didn’t care about the size of the building. They first grabbed it first, otherwise they might not be able to grab it later !
Li Yuanying quietly led Yan Lide over to see the picture of each family scrambling to claim it first, and urged Yan Lide to draw a painting and send it back to Beijing, so that his imperial brother could know how much the people of Hu County love their king.
Yan Lide firmly refused.
Li Yuanying had no choice but to draw a picture of "All People Love the King" by himself, and sent it to Chang'an along with his request for instructions. This note is not so much about asking for instructions to renovate the Taihe Palace, it is better to say that His Majesty Li Er is diligent in his administration, and he is dedicated to the long-term peace and stability of the Tang Dynasty! Humans are not ruthless, and the people of Huxian County know that His Majesty Li Er has worked so hard, and they always feel that the king thinks about the king, but he has taken practical actions! In order to show that this is not a waste of money, or an exaggeration, I attach a picture of "All People Love the King". Look how happy the people in this painting are spending a lot of money, and their expressions are very happy, without the slightest reluctance! If you don't believe me, you can ask Yan Lide, he also saw it with his own eyes!
What Li Yuanying wrote this time was not a personal letter, but a note that was delivered in a formal manner. He is now the acting county magistrate of Hu County, how could he not play with this channel for writing letters? It is impossible not to play, you must try all the fun things!
Li Yuanying's notes are still on the way, and Chang'an has already got the news, and many people have Li Yuanying's foolish speeches on their desks. Most people gasped when they saw it, and felt that Li Yuanying was really shameless and imaginative, and he insisted on forcing people to give him money, and he was picky and picky. People are unwilling or unwilling.
Who is really willing to give you money? Whose money fell from the sky
Everyone was waiting to see the joke, but the next day came the news that Li Yuanying secretly ordered Dai Ting to collude with a group of foreign merchants to snatch the right to claim it, which made all the powerful and wealthy households in Hu County unable to sit still and competed for it. The right to claim the large building, I am afraid that if you are too late, businessmen from other counties will snatch it away! This method of coercion and temptation is really high!
Everyone was convinced, and turned their attention to Wei Zheng again. This time, will Wei Zheng still protect his grandson-in-law? How is this behavior different from robbing others of their money? There is no way to build a palace and let the common people pay for it!
Wei Zheng accepted everyone's attention every day, but he didn't say a word. This matter did not touch the money of the state treasury, secondly, it did not recruit civilian husbands indiscriminately, and thirdly, no one went up to appeal for grievances. He is not a fool, why did he come forward
In fact, when Li Yuanying came up with this plan, he told Wei Zheng about these ideas. Li Yuanying said that if the palace is well repaired, it will benefit a lot. If everything is mobilized, everyone will be able to make a living.
In the future, Huxian County can be used as a demonstration county to be displayed to the outside world. When the Tubo people and Turkic people come, they will be led here so that they can appreciate the delicious and interesting things in the Tang Dynasty.
Mentioning this, Li Yuanying felt rather regretful, saying that his third nephew had just gone to Tubo for a few days and came back, how could he have fun? It's a pity that Brother Huang didn't let him go, otherwise he would have run all over Tubo!
Wei Zheng thought it would be better to find a place to tie this kid up, or he might even be able to climb over the snow-capped mountains in Tubo, and then go to Niboluo to play around.
Therefore, Wei Zheng decided to turn a blind eye to Li Yuanying's unreasonable behavior, and pretended not to see it.
Wei Zheng was as immovable as a mountain, and the others were very disgusted. Pooh! I know that you, old Wei, are the most cunning. You only pick out what the saints can accept to spray, and you can still get rewards after scolding the saints! If you are really struck by thunder, you all stay away and don't say anything at all!
His Majesty Li Er has also heard about Li Yuanying's encouragement of people from Hu County to invest in the cultivation palace. Although he thinks this method is a bit... not very decent, but if the court can get a newly renovated summer palace for free, that would be a good thing, right? ? If this happened, wouldn't Li Yuanying's "go to Mount Tai without spending a penny from the court" also come true? At that time, Wei Zheng might not be able to object!
All parties stood still with their own ideas in mind, and Li Yuanying's booklet was delivered to Chang'an as scheduled in a calm situation.
The author has something to say: Little Prince: Make trouble!
