The Richest Man in the Heavens Starts from Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 50
Du Yu finally got rid of his mother's curse of urging marriage.

After returning home, he reset the teleportation point and immediately opened the portal to travel to the world of Shendi.

Because of the passage of time, he has been busy in the real world for more than two months and only a week has passed since Tang Dynasty, and the hall masters of Wolf Fist have not returned to Yangzhou yet.

Transforming into the image of Yuan Qi again, Du Yu walked out of the secret room of the palace.

Having not been active for a long time, he was going to do a set of punches to find out the feeling of practicing kung fu.

As soon as he arrived at the martial arts arena, he found that the little girl Ge Yayun was practicing hard according to the kung fu taught by him.

Du Yu stopped to watch for a while, and casually pointed out a few mistakes made by the little girl.

Ge Yayun's talent is good, and he quickly corrected his previous mistakes.

After receiving the work, she was sweating, and said crisply: "Master."

"Well, you've practiced well. But don't forget that you are still young and your body is still growing, so don't over-train your external skills, and pay attention to the cultivation of inner alchemy." Du Yu said.

"Yes, Master. I will pay attention." Ge Yayun said.

After talking a few words about martial arts, she began to ask again when she could be sent out to do things.

Before Yuan Qi accepted her as an apprentice, he essentially wanted to use her as a hostage, more to threaten Ge Tianba, and sending her to do things was just to take advantage of the situation.

Du Yu had a different idea. He simply thought that the little girl was good. Since he called himself a master, he should take her as his apprentice.

Anyway, if I don't engage in the Hangou case, there won't be so many messy things, and there will be no conflicts with Ge Tianba.

And since she planned to walk the right path in Datang, she had no reason to betray herself.

Besides, even if he turns his face in the future, so what, maybe he will not be in Datang after a new world is created in a few years.

After Du Yu took over Yuan Qi's ability, it has been greatly improved. He feels that he is the ceiling of personal force value in the Shendi world, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

After pointing out a few words about the practice of inner alchemy, he dismissed Ge Yayun and began to move his body to practice martial arts.

The days returned to the previous track. He went to the Water Margin World to see the situation of Shaohua Mountain from time to time, and stayed in the Shendi World to practice most of the time.

Perhaps it was an authentic Taoist technique, but the progress was really slow in the early days.

But he can really feel the promotion effect of inner alchemy on internal strength, so the improvement in strength is not slow.

He didn't know where the peak of internal strength or martial arts could be in the world of Shendi, but it was always right to improve one's strength.

Time flies, and it is another two months in a flash.

The hall masters in Kunzhou withdrew back one after another, and shopkeeper Zhou also chose an apprentice to take the accountant there to open a branch of Hongtong Cabinet Workshop.

Du Yu dispersed the hall masters under his command and asked them to quietly expand the peripheral power of the Iron Hands.

The flying clipper ship is still in trial production, but other things can be prepared in advance. Once the ship and water ghost are in place, he plans to go to sea to make an idea of ​​Iwami Ginzan.

Of course, in order to make the sailboat, he not only found various blueprint data, but also bought a large number of parts such as canvas, cables, and pulley blocks from modern time and space.

The speed of shipbuilding has been greatly improved, and now there is already a trial-produced small ship conducting sailing experiments in offshore waters.

According to Du Yu's instructions, these people from the Iron Hands Group recorded various data of the voyage, and at the same time trained the recruited water ghosts during the actual voyage.

The progress of the two-pronged approach is quite good, and I believe he will be able to go to the other side of the sea in less than two years.

There was another major event during the period, that is, the harvest of the crops that were trial-planted on the land under the Wangfu.

The output is not as good as modern agriculture that uses chemical fertilizers and pesticides, but it has increased several times to about 280 jin per mu compared with the common yield of about 800 jin per mu in the Tang Dynasty.

Such high-yielding rice immediately shocked the whole Yangzhou once it was harvested, not to mention the higher-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes.

The sharecroppers were stunned, and some even knelt on the ground and thanked God.

Du Yu didn't care much after knowing the bumper harvest. He thought it was only a little higher than Daming's level, and it was completely incomparable with modern agriculture.

Most of the rent collected in the Tang Dynasty was [-]-[-]%. Some landlords were more ruthless and heavier, but basically no one exceeded this ratio.

Du Yu didn't intend to break the unspoken rules, and still collected rent from those tenant farmers at a [-]-[-] split.But because the output has more than doubled, the life of the tenant farmers is much better than before.

It is impossible for the tenant farmers to keep all the grain harvested, and because they do not need to pay taxes for farming for the palace, they will sell some grain to buy some necessities for life.

Du Yu didn't want the grain to flow out, so he opened the warehouse door to buy the extra grain from the tenant farmers at a normal price.

After a lot of tossing, more than 3000 tons of grain were hoarded in this harvest, and if sweet potatoes and potatoes were included, there would be [-] tons.

This is because the tenants were more resistant to planting for the first time, and he did not dare to force the result.If we allow less rice to be planted, more sweet potatoes and potatoes can feed more people.

Even so, existing stocks are enough to feed tens of thousands of people.

Du Yu's influence in the Water Margin world is less than [-] people, even if they are all cavalry, they can afford to support food-hungry households, let alone most of them are ordinary minion soldiers.

He believes that when the time is right in the Water Margin World in a few years, he will have already stockpiled enough food and grass, and he will not worry about his foundation being unstable.

Those are long-term things, as long as Du Yu does things step by step, everything will be there.

Of course, the impact of this bumper harvest was not limited to the palace, even Cui Liang, the governor of Yangzhou, came to him as soon as he heard about it.

Asked about the specific matters of planting in detail, and boldly offered to buy some seeds from him, and planned to plant them in his own field in the next round of cultivation.

Du Yu didn't refuse, he raised a price to recover some costs and agreed.

On the contrary, when Cui Liang suggested that high-yield rice seeds, sweet potatoes, and potatoes could be presented to the queen as auspicious signs, he was a little moved.

As the only queen in Chinese history, Wu Zetian naturally has her own advantages. Although she was criticized by those who were loyal to Li Tang, no one can deny her achievements in governing the country.

Especially in the early stage, the establishment of palace examinations and military examinations, rewarding Nongsang and reforming the administration of officials did eliminate many of the long-standing disadvantages of the early Tang Dynasty.

Although in the later period, he was extravagant and arbitrary, killing Li Tang's clan wantonly, but generally speaking, he can be called Mingjun.

Yuan Qi was a king with a different surname promoted by Wu Zetian. From this point of view, Du Yu was naturally a member of the Wu clan.

It can be said that as long as he does not commit suicide, the longer Wu Zetian lives, the longer he can enjoy the privilege.If Queen Yulong Bintian returned Li Tang's artifact, the successor might liquidate him.

Thinking of the years of war with the Turks in the past few years, the national power of the Great Zhou was greatly consumed. Having such high-yield crops may give the empress a sigh of relief.

Du Yu thought for a moment, and said: "This matter can indeed be reported to His Majesty as auspicious, but even if I treat all the grain in the warehouse as seeds, it may not be enough to promote it in the Tang Dynasty."

Cui Liang said: "Your Majesty's words are wrong. As long as you offer a batch of seeds, you will have to worry about the rest. Instead, you can sit and wait for His Majesty's reward."

Du Yu thought about it for a while, and it seemed that this was the reason, so he discussed with Cui Liang and came up with a plan.

Soon, there was an extra 600-mile express report on the official road from Yangzhou to Luoyang, the capital of God.

Wu Zetian was very surprised, how could there be an urgent report in Jiangnan East Road.

When people took a look at it, they were immediately overjoyed. The mission case had just passed, and even though the border issue with Tule had been resolved, there was still a murderous atmosphere in the imperial court.

One is that the Li faction and Wu Sansi are fighting openly and secretly in the court, and the other is that in recent years, the successive years of fighting with Tule have consumed too much treasury and left it empty.

When she was worrying, Ying Wang Yuanqi and Yangzhou governor Cui Liang jointly wrote the book, saying that two high-yielding crops had been discovered overseas, and the yield per mu could reach [-] catties.

I had concerns before and didn't dare to report it directly, but now I have harvested a crop and confirmed the legendary yield, and now I want to escort those seeds to the gods.

When Wu Zetian first saw that the yield per mu was more than [-] catties, she felt unreliable, but when she saw the two people in the pond newspaper, she promised them to come to present Rui.

Tang reported 600 miles and sent it back urgently.

Wu Zetian was still a little puzzled, so he sent someone to summon Di Renjie to ask him his opinion on this matter.

Di Renjie also found it unbelievable when he heard it for the first time, but if it is true at this time, it will not only be a blessing to His Majesty, but also a blessing to the people of the Tang Dynasty.

So he said: "Although I have never heard of it, since King Ying and Cui Jieshi dare to meet, they will definitely be able to show such a god."

　Thank you for your collection, recommendation and reward.
