Chapter 242: Seed Granting
“It’s hard and hard to chew, but after chewing it, it tastes pretty good, a little bit sweet…”
Chang Sun Dongcai frowned and expressed his feelings while tasting the food.
"What is this? How do I eat it?"
The Xiao family suddenly took out food that no one had ever seen before. It must be a gift from the God King.
There is no doubt that the food given by the God King must be good stuff.
"This is corn seed given by the God King. It is suitable for planting in the northwest region. Now in August is a good time to plant corn."
When Xiao Yunzhan said these words, his eyes were filled with uncontrollable excitement and excitement.
"Corn is easy to grow and matures in more than three months. The harvest is gratifying. Tender corn can be cooked and eaten directly, and old corn can be ground into corn flour to make corn cakes or corn porridge. It is very filling..."
When he saw Lin Yiran take out a whole granary of corn last night, he was so shocked that he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Brahma City has always been particularly short of food, and the harvests from the fields have always been poor, so the taxes paid are 10% less than other cities.
Even if the taxes were reduced by 10%, the people's lives were still not much better, and there were often times when there was a shortage of food.
If there is any natural disaster, many people will starve to death.
After listening to Lin Yiran's introduction to corn planting and yield, he wished he could plow two miles of land overnight and plant the corn seeds.
As Chang Sun Dongcai and Prefect Tian listened to Xiao Yunzhan's words, their eyes widened and their hands began to tremble with excitement.
"Is that true, Brahma - no no no, the people of Shuitian City will be saved."
Prefect Tian clenched the corn in his hand, his face flushed with excitement, "How much land can these corn seeds plant?"
Looking at the bag of corn seeds on the table, Governor Tian's fiery heart cooled down a little.
Even if we plant all the corn seeds in this bag, it might not be enough for everyone in the city to eat. Can one corn seed produce 20 kilograms of corn?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
However, if the God King takes action, he will definitely not be stingy.
Chang Sun Dongcai glanced at Xiao Yunzhan, and seeing his raised mouth corners, his eyes flickered slightly and he grinned.
"I think the God King will definitely not only have this bag of corn seeds. The God King has always been kind to the people and will definitely not let them go hungry..."
"The people of Shuitian City have received the blessing of the God King. They have prayed for it for eight lifetimes."
"The status of the God King is extremely high in the hearts of the people. If Emperor Wu of Liang comes to Shuitian City at this time, the people will be able to beat him to death..."
Xiao Yunzhan looked at Changsun Dongcai with a smile.
"Mr. Changsun is very good at predicting things. The God King will not ignore the people. She is kind and compassionate, and is the God of the people."
When Xiao Yunzhan said this, his eyes drifted towards Lin Yiran.
Recently, influenced by Zhu Changshou, he always unconsciously wanted to praise Lin Yiran.
Only Lin Yiran knew about his secret compliments. This was their little secret.
He couldn't help but feel happy at the thought that they could communicate with each other.
"The people support and respect the God-King, and the God-King will naturally look after the people. This is mutual." Old Madam Xiao echoed.
She was reminding them that the prerequisite for gaining the favor of the King of Gods was to have enough respect and love for him.
As for those heartless people who smashed the bowl and cursed after eating, she would just kill them with a knife to avoid wasting food.
"Of course. I guess the old lady hasn't gone out to check this morning. The people in the streets and alleys of Shuitian City are all talking about the God King appearing."
Magistrate Tian said with a smile what the people were saying, "The God King has come to save the people! Thank you, God King, may God King live forever..."
This was the first time he saw the people so united.
I remember that when there was a drought last month, officials from the imperial court came to collect taxes in advance, and the people cursed Emperor Wu of Liang's eight generations of ancestors behind his back.
Of course he had heard about it, even when he was walking on the street.
However, he was also angry about Emperor Wu of Liang's confiscation of the Xiao family, so he didn't care about the people's insults to the royal family.
The royal family was indeed declining with each generation, and it ended with Emperor Wu of Liang.
Chang Sun Dongcai nodded repeatedly, still thinking about the corn seeds.
"Since the God King has already given us corn seeds, why not plant them early while the soil is moist, and reassure the people..."
Chang Sun Dongcai only said half of what he wanted to say and swallowed the second half.
He actually wanted to ask, it takes a long time for corn seeds to mature after being planted, so what do people eat during this period?
The people have all been hungry these days.
If it hadn’t been for the sweet rain yesterday, which provided water for the people to drink, they would have to walk with the help of the wall now.
But thinking that the God King had just given him seeds, if he asked for food again, it would seem a little greedy.
I think the God King will definitely make arrangements, he just needs to obey the orders of King Yongchang.
