Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Chapter 5 Waiting for Zhu Di's Rebellion

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, he didn't care about Zhu Tao's saying that he would not become an official until he died, but thought of Queen Ma.

Empress Ma's health is not very good, and she has contracted a disease in recent years, but she is not very willing to see the imperial doctor.

Because she was worried that if her illness was not cured, she would implicate the imperial physician and be angered by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Son, you said that Queen Ma's illness can be cured here?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked suddenly.

"Not necessarily, let's see what kind of disease it is, but as long as it is not terminally ill, you dare not say that you are cured when you come to me, and it will definitely be fine to save your life." Zhu Tao said confidently.

"But Empress Ma, can you come to my little clinic for treatment?"

"That's right, I'll just ask casually." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

But he had already made up his mind that he must bring Empress Ma here in the next two days.Queen Ma was always worried that if she was too cured, she would be cut off by him.

But you shouldn't worry about cutting off such a young genius, right?What's more, this young genius is still his son in name.

"Then besides taking medicine, is there anything else your cousin should pay attention to?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

Zhu Tao thought for a while: "It's just right, let my cousin stay at our house to grow the land. Doing some physical work can also have the effect of exercise."

farming?

Zhu Biao was dumbfounded, I am a majestic prince, I am too busy to process and review memorials for the emperor every day, so I come to farm for you?
Zhu Yuanzhang also thought it was a joke, but he couldn't say it clearly, so he thought for a while and said, "Son, your cousin is a rare and good shopkeeper in our family, and he has to handle the affairs of the store for us. How can he come to farm?"

Zhu Tao smiled: "You've been in business for a long time, don't you think it's a mess?"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hands again and again: "Look at what you said, our biggest dream back then was to have a piece of land of our own. Now that our business has grown, we just go to the vegetable garden to see if we have nothing to do. How can we look down on farming?"

"It's just that your cousin is really busy. After all, business matters are more important."

Zhu Tao was not happy: "Hey, then I will show you today. Farming is much more important than doing business. Even if the emperor sees our land, he can put down his dignity and come to serve him in person!"

You know, he often used the good things he signed to use in his own land, so that even if his father went bankrupt in business, he could rely on this land to obtain monstrous wealth.

"What are you talking about, kid? Could it be that there is gold in our field?"

Zhu Tao didn't explain, and led them directly to his home.

"What, this is not an ordinary field, but in terms of grade, it can be regarded as high-class." Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the soil and said with a smile, he was really satisfied.

Zhu Tao is a young man, so it is rare to be able to take care of the family land without it going to waste.

"Master, you don't know. When our land was first acquired a few years ago, it was just a low-grade piece of land! The young master used some method to turn it into a fertile field!" Old Tang explained from the side, his tone Full and proud.

"What? You still have such a great ability?" Zhu Biao didn't respond. He really didn't understand farmland, but Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked.

He came from the countryside, and he knows that the quality of the land determines the fate of the family, so there are many old farmers who can improve the quality of the land.

But right now, this young man can actually turn Susukada into a fertile field!This is something impossible in mythology!

"Son, how did you do it?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked excitedly.

"Don't ask, it's gold!" Zhu Tao made a joke, but unfortunately no one here could understand: "It's a fetish of the Western Regions Merchant Group. Unfortunately, I only bought a little, and I may have a chance to buy it again in the future."

"And dad, what matters is not the land, but the things planted in the land."

I saw only about three acres of land, and I couldn't see any crops such as wheat. Instead, there were rows and rows of vines everywhere.

"You are growing vegetables. Why haven't we seen this kind of vegetables?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

He felt a little regretful in his heart, and felt that it was a waste of money for a young man to use such a good land to grow vegetables.

But from old Tang's clichés, I learned that Zhu Tao grew up alone, he didn't have bad habits, and he didn't waste the land, which is already very good.

"That's right, cousin, you just want me to put down the business in the store and take care of these dishes?" Zhu Biao also disapproved.

If it's farming land and food, it's still a serious business, but growing fruits and vegetables is even more unworthy of the prince's trouble.

"Hehe," Zhu Tao sneered, "This is just a vine that can feed chickens and ducks. The real treasure grows in the soil."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Tao waved to Old Tang and several tenants: "Please bring out the crops from this No. [-] experimental field, and let my father and cousin learn a lot!"

Lao Tang and the others immediately started to work excitedly. Zhu Tao planted this crop once last year. There was only one vine, but the yield scared everyone.

Looking at the vines covering several acres of land today, they just feel that they are not digging food, but digging gold mines!

Seeing everyone excited, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao felt that they had never seen the world.

And as the royal family, what strange fruits and vegetables haven't they seen before?
Then, the two fell silent. They had never seen the round yellow fruit dug out of the soil.

"Son, is this grain or fruit? What is it called?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Hush. I'll tell you after I finish digging under this vine," Zhu Tao said.

Finished digging?Haven't two or three of them been dug up already, are there more?
Zhu Yuanzhang looked back strangely, just in time to see Old Tang cleaning out the vines with fifteen fruits hanging on them, and Zhu Tao's explanation came to his ears just right.

"This thing is called a potato. It can be used for cooking and easy to live. It can be grown in both the north and the south. It can be used as...a staple food!"

Large yield, easy to survive, staple food!

Looking at the piles of potatoes and the vines everywhere, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes suddenly became blood red.

God bless Daming!

These four words were all he could think of.

After experiencing the famine and war at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang had the fear of hunger in his bones, not because he was afraid of hunger, but because he didn't want others to go hungry again.

But no matter how he tried to persuade farmers to grow mulberry, the land is so big and the output is so big, but now, he sees hope, the hope that everyone will have enough to eat.

Zhu Biao had already slumped on the ground. He just took a look at the field with his father, but he didn't expect to see a myth.

After working for a long time, the harvesting of Experimental Field No. [-] was completed.

Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang come back to his senses, and then he heard Lao Tang's report word by word: "Report, young master, the potato yield of Experimental Field No. [-] is six thousand catties per mu!"

"A god, a god!" Zhu Yuanzhang held onto Zhu Tao's shoulders tightly: "Hurry up and hand over this god to the imperial court, son, if you don't give you a duke, the imperial court will be sorry for you!"

Zhu Biao took a breath, Zhu Yuanzhang has always strictly controlled the title, but he didn't want to be willing to give it to a young duke this time!
However, Zhu Tao was not so excited.

"Dad, don't worry, I'm going to wait for Zhu Di to rebel before handing over the potatoes!"
