Take the department store back to the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1166 Young Master, let's bet

Water can carry a boat and it can overturn it.

Whoever wins the hearts of the people will win the world.

Yuan Tan has great prestige, but for thousands of years, the emperor has been the guide for the ministers, and the father has been the guide for the son.

When Yuan Shao was alive, he would definitely deal with Yuan Tan, because if he died, Yuan Shang would not be able to fight his elder brother at all.

People's hearts are the most important thing if you want to fight against the cheap daddy under the banner that the king guides his ministers and the father guides his son.

Therefore, Yuan Tan needs to be a major event for the country and the people to ensure his competitiveness.

Now that there is no war, it all depends on government affairs.

"The work of poverty alleviation is good, with great influence and wide scope, but the investment is also extremely high." Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan with a dignified expression.

Pang Tong also said: "And there will be many people who stumble and pick the fruit."

Alluding to those people like Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang Sima Yi.

You must know that at that time, he was the emperor, and everyone's work was decided by him.If there is a fight, the reputation of poverty alleviation will not be gained, and it may become a scapegoat.

These are things that are sure to happen.

As the proposer, Lao Jiaxu was not unhappy when he heard these difficulties.No matter what happens, the opponent will definitely stumble, and occupy the commanding heights of the king's righteousness, rights, and morality.

It is not difficult to be able to do things for the common people. For thousands of years, there has never been such a thing.

Therefore, these core civil and military personnel of the Shence Mansion are ready to fight hard, even to the point of giving their lives.

As the date of abdication approached, it was only then that he could intuitively feel the huge influence brought about by Yuan Shao's proclaiming the emperor.

The opponent's chips are multiplied geometrically.

After really becoming emperor, the pressure will become even greater.

Yuan Tan watched his confidants drink tea silently, his expression became more and more dignified, and he could feel their pressure.

If there is no extraordinary means, facing the founding emperor, there is really no chance of winning.

As long as Yuan Shao doesn't do anything wrong, he will surely win.

"Taking this opportunity, let me tell you something." Yuan Tan said calmly.

"Eldest Young Master?" Everyone's eyes were listening.

"I am going to cultivate a large number of seeds." Yuan Tan.

Guo Jia was the chief military adviser, and asked, "Elder Master, what kind of seed is it?"

"Potato."

"What are potatoes?"

Whether it is generals like Zhao Yun or military advisers like Guo Jia, they don't know Tudou at all.

Yuan Tan also patiently explained, "Potatoes are a staple food. They are drought-tolerant and can adapt to soils all over the world."

Everyone suddenly realized that this was to cultivate the land, and a new crop was discovered. Since it is the staple food, it enriches the people's table.

Just now they said that they want to help the poor. For this era, if you have enough food, it is tantamount to helping the poor.

"How much is the yield per mu, my lord?" Jia Xu first proposed poverty alleviation. For new varieties, the first concern is the yield, so he asked.

Yuan Tan nodded, "Generally speaking, it's three thousand catties, but a big harvest can be more than 5000 catties."

"Oh, this potato is good. It can yield three hundred, what, three thousand? Five thousand!"

Ahhh, I saw a rainbow floating in the lobby, and Zhuge Liang and others sprayed tea at the sky.

"Cough, cough, cough." Jia Xu didn't drink tea when he spoke just now, but he was almost choked to death by a mouthful of air.

The famous ministers and generals of these times were all shocked.

You must know that the staple food in this era is three hundred catties daily, and it is high incense. If there are four or five hundred catties, it will be a bumper harvest.The emperor must worship the heaven and the earth, and thank God for his blessing.

Good guy here, three thousand catties, one mu worth ten mu of land.Wherever there will be famine after that, the rule of Wenjing will not be able to do it.

Eldest son, you must not make such a joke.

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan anxiously and said, "My lord, where do these potatoes come from?"

"This...." Yuan Tan couldn't say that it was obtained from the department store, so he could only say, "It was brought by a merchant from a distant place. He said it came from South America, and it was from the Mayan civilization."

He can't talk nonsense yet.

Sure enough, Zhuge Liang and the others immediately took out the map.

"Where is South America?"

"At this!"

"so far!"

Everyone turned their eyes from the map back to Yuan Tan and looked at each other. Needless to say, the eldest son must have been fooled.This is everyone's first reaction.

Yuan Tan looked at his words and hurriedly added, "He said that they grow potatoes there, and they often harvest three thousand catties, and five thousand catties is not uncommon."

A group of military advisers looked anxious, thinking that he said, if he didn't say three thousand catties, would you always buy it?

"My lord, how much did you spend to buy the seeds?" Pang Tong asked.

"Ten... one hundred thousand gold." Yuan Tan was very helpless, as expected, as long as he lied once, he would need to make up for it countless times.

My God, 10 taels!
Well, the eldest son was definitely deceived.

This is everyone's final conclusion.

Zhao Yun got up and said solemnly: "My lord, where is the merchant now, the general will go and arrest him immediately."

Looking at the other generals, they all mean the same thing.

The military divisions also nodded.

Yuan Tan: "...." He understood everyone's thoughts, so he could only continue: "We haven't tried it yet, how do we know we can't produce three thousand catties per mu?"

Everyone was horrified, and they thought to themselves, where did your usual brilliance and martial arts go, my lord?I know that you are always doing things for the people, but you can't be stupid about such things.

Is this still worth trying?
Guo Jia hurriedly said: "My lord, since ancient times.... Later, there was the Silk Road..." Picking up the map and pointing, "East and West, there are three thousand catties there. We are lucky to have three hundred catties per mu He doesn’t have three hundred catties in the west, and he can’t even increase the population.”

"This..., isn't it because I haven't met Americans, maybe there are such high-yielding crops in America." Yuan Tan felt guilty, and it was also because the vision of these military advisers was getting wider and wider, so it was not easy to be deceived.

"Is there anyone in America?" Xun Yu muttered.

"There should be..." Yuan Tan felt even more guilty.

There is a fart.

The military divisions all thought to themselves.

"In any case, we have to try. As for catching that merchant, that merchant has already left, so don't worry about disturbing others." Yuan Tan said seriously.

Everyone thought it was the same, if this stupid story spread, Tang Wang would definitely make a big splash, what would the common people think?
It really can't startle too many people.

They don't believe in the fact that the yield per mu is three thousand catties or even five thousand catties, because it is simply not credible.

What is the concept of three thousand catties? The yield per mu has increased tenfold.In addition, it will open up wasteland and cultivate land in the future, and the population that can be raised will be at least ten times higher, and it will be able to support one billion people.

You must know that when the East and the West add up, Guo Jia and the others have estimated the primitive people in other parts of the world, and the total sum is only [-] million.

How many troops can one billion people support?

directly unified the world.

Everyone looked at each other, this time, the Eldest Young Master miscalculated.

However, they found that Yuan Tan's determination to plant was very firm.

The typical ones don’t hit the south wall and don’t look back, don’t shed tears when they don’t see the coffin, and don’t die until the Yellow River.

Maybe, it's also because I can't save face, and I don't want to admit being cheated.

Guo Jia rolled his eyes, now that he is ruling the world, there are fewer opportunities to make credit.The stock of Moutai at home is exhausted, and I miss it very much. Since the planting is inevitable, I said: "My lord, why don't we make a bet."
