"This is a fetish that I personally found overseas with a group of disciples. I can eat whatever I want. Who can control me?"

Li Xuan snorted coldly, and continued: "Besides, this king planted ten acres of sweet potatoes in his home village, and he could spread more than 100 stones of sweet potatoes. If this does not realize the freedom of sweet potatoes, then it is a waste!"

"Ten acres?"

Immediately, upon hearing these words, all the honorable ministers couldn't help but feel their hearts move, and there was a faint light in their eyes looking at Li Xuan.

Seeing this, Li Xuan didn't know what these ministers were thinking, so he just smiled lightly.

Then he said to Li Shimin: "Since Your Majesty is interested in glass greenhouses, why not go to the next door, corn can be eaten now!"

"Can I eat corn too?"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others were shocked again.

"Xuanba, why are the corns in my shed still green and tender? When you pinch them, the corn kernels are full of water!"

"Your Majesty, it is this fresh and tender corn that is delicious!"

Li Xuan laughed lightly and said.

"How do you eat such tender corn?" Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others all looked closely at Li Xuan.

"Boil or bake!"

Li Xuan smiled softly, "This fresh and tender corn, after being boiled with water, tastes tender and sweet, the taste is unique!"

"Suck it..."

Suddenly, a strange sound came from the side.

Li Xuan, Li Shimin and others looked down, and found that kid Li Chenglu was looking at Li Xuan eagerly.

At the corner of the mouth, there is still a trace of crystal clear liquid.

"Hey, Aye, Chenglu also wants to eat corn!"

Li Chenglu smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Let's go, I'll take you to break a few pieces for my father, and cook them for you when I go back!"

Li Xuan pampered Li Chenglu's head with his hand, and walked out.

"it is good!"

Li Chenglu's face was full of joy.

Behind him, Wei Zheng, Hou Junji and other nobles looked at Li Shimin expectantly.

Li Shimin sighed in his heart, and followed.

"Let's go, today's lovers are all lucky!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

All the nobles were overjoyed immediately.

Li Xuan in the front ignored Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others behind him, and took Li Chenglu directly, turned left, passed through several glass sheds, and walked into a glass shed full of corn .

"I've seen the king! I've seen Xiao Lang!"

In the greenhouse, there is an old farmer who takes care of it.

Seeing Li Xuan coming in, he hurriedly saluted.

"I'll take Chenglu and break some corn!"

Li Xuan nodded, explained, and began to check one by one.

And the farmer who had just retreated to the side saw a large group of people squeezing in from outside.

Just when he was about to ask, he was startled, and then his face was full of excitement.

He knows the leader!

His Majesty is here too?

He hurriedly stood aside, not daring to say a word.

Li Shimin walked directly towards Li Xuan, watching Li Xuan's movements curiously.

Li Xuan took Li Chenglu, shuttled in front of the corn plants, inspecting and explaining.

"Cheng Lu, although these corns are edible, they need to be carefully selected."

"Look, this huge corn, you can see the corn kernels inside by opening the corn leaf."

"This corn is big, but the kernels inside are sparse, so it's not worth eating!"

"This one is also big, and the corn kernels inside are also full. When you squeeze it with your hands, a little water can be squeezed out of the corn kernels. It is neither old nor tender, and it is suitable for cooking..."

After turning dozens of stalks of corn, Li Xuan only broke off five corns.

Then, he was ready to leave.

Seeing this, Li Shimin looked anxious.

And the ministers behind them also shouted anxiously.

"His Majesty?"

"Ok?"

Li Shimin was startled.

Li Xuan also seemed to have noticed something, and turned to look at Li Shimin.

"Does Your Majesty want to eat corn?"

"That's why I would like to thank Xuan Ba!"

Li Shimin's heart relaxed, and he quickly said with a smile.

"His Royal Highness, such a strange thing, can I wait to satisfy my hunger?"

Those nobles around couldn't bear it either, and shouted expectantly.

……

Chapter 650 Auction dispatch order?

Li Xuan raised his head, looked around the dark group of ministers, and nodded slowly.

"Li Baoding, Wang Xuance, you two hurry up and break the corn for the ministers!"

"Yes, Master!"

Li Baoding and Wang Xuance hurriedly responded, each carrying a basket, and began to check one by one.

All the honorable ministers were immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed their hands in salute.

Li Xuan just nodded lightly, and then walked back with Li Chenglu.

While walking, Li Shimin still had some thoughts.

"Xuanba, according to this situation, how much corn can be produced per mu?"

"It should be able to produce six or seven stones per mu!"

Li Xuan replied casually.

"Six or seven stones?"

Li Shimin and the noble ministers behind him were shocked again.

Immediately, he trembled all over.

Because, they all remembered just now, Li Xuan said that sweet potatoes cannot be used as a staple food, but corn is fine!

A kind of corn that can be used as a staple food like rice and pasta, and the yield is still so high?

The blessing of the Tang Dynasty!

"Xuanba, how does the corn taste?"

"Your Majesty will know after a while!"

Li Xuan said directly.

"Haha, that's exactly..."

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

Li Xuan was speechless, and asked with some disgust: "I don't know what is the purpose of His Majesty's visit this time?"

"This time I..."

Hearing Li Xuan's question, Li Shimin recalled why he took the group of ministers and nobles, why did he run so far in such cold weather to come to Lijiazhuang.

Immediately, everything was said again.

After finishing speaking, all the people also came to the main hall in the other courtyard.

A reception hall surrounded by four walls, with single sofas or double sofas.

The spaciousness and solemnity made the eyes of all the nobles who saw this kind of upright hall brighten for the first time.

In the main hall, there are also four huge iron stoves.

The fire inside was burning vigorously, and a chimney extended from above the stove to the outside of the house.

Entering the main hall, it was immediately warmed up a lot.

Li Xuan took off the heavy fur coat casually and hung it on the hanger beside him.

Then, take advantage of the opportunity to sit on a sofa.

Soon, Li Chang, the housekeeper, came in with a group of maidservants carrying a kettle and hot tea.

Li Xuan took a sip slowly before speaking.

"Your Majesty, this matter couldn't be easier!"

"Ok?"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others all looked directly at Li Xuan.

"Your Majesty, you provided the guards, and you set the price for the guards."

"Originally, these prices are the prices for helping those aristocratic families attack the city under normal circumstances. But now, each of those aristocratic families wants His Majesty to send them troops first.

As such, this situation is a special case.

Moreover, in the final analysis, these aristocratic families can all have something to do with His Majesty and the noble ministers of the court.

In order not to put His Majesty in a dilemma with the honorable ministers, and for the sake of fairness, we can only conduct an auction! "

"auction?"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and the others couldn't help but be taken aback subconsciously.

Sending troops to attack the city, can it be auctioned?

"It's the auction!"

Li Xuan nodded lightly, and said: "Based on the price originally set by His Majesty, the auction will start. Whoever bids the highest price will be the first to lend troops to that family!"

"But Xuanba, I am the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and those are all the troops of the Tang Dynasty! Does this damage the prestige of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Shimin said quickly.

At the same time, all the honorable ministers below had strange expressions on their faces.

Auctioning the army?

Or the Datang Emperor Auction?

This His Royal Highness King Jin is really ingenious and different from ordinary people!

"Your Majesty, that is the Lei Ting Shop Guard. When did it become the Tang Army?"

Li Xuan glanced at Li Shimin in astonishment, and continued: "Besides, what does this matter have to do with Datang Weiyi?"

"As long as the Tang Dynasty is strong and the people have enough clothes to wear, food to eat, a place to live, and behavior to follow, the majesty of the Tang Dynasty will last forever!"

"Clothing to wear, food to be sufficient, shelter to live in, behavior to follow..."
