Ren Qing's eyes were a little bright. This tough man finally touched the softest place in his heart at this moment.
Along the way, he was not afraid of hardships or even death! But he was only afraid that he would die quietly and worthlessly like a wild dog.
Because of this, in the most difficult times! Ren Qing will always think of Xiao Han in his mind. Perhaps, he is the only person in the world who knows what kind of situation he is facing!
He raised his head to prevent Xiao Han from seeing his tears. Ren Qing took out a small handful of rice grains from his arms and showed them to Xiao Han.
"Is this three-season rice?" Xiao Han held the rice grains in both hands, as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world!
The rice grains are well preserved and each one is plump and solid! Even the height is three-thirds larger than what is usually seen. Even Xiao Han, who has been despised by farmers in Zhuangzi thousands of times, can see the extraordinary qualities of this rice seed.
Unconsciously, someone gathered around him. There are some that Xiao Han recognizes and some that he doesn’t. Although they had already watched it once in the morning, this did not stop them from wanting to get up close and personal with the rare farm treasures.
There were no idiots in the court of the Tang Dynasty who said, "Why not eat minced meat?" They, who are high up in the temple, know better than anyone else what impact a high-yielding grain will have on farmers, on the Tang Dynasty, and even on future generations!
Mr. Xiao Yu took a grain of rice seed from Xiao Han's hand, patted Xiao Han's shoulder happily and said: "Okay! This is the divine thing of the Tang Dynasty given to me by God! If it is as the strong man Ren said, it can last three seasons a year!" There will be no more hunger and suffering in the Tang Dynasty in the future!"
The fat and white Changsun Wuji smiled at Xiao Yu and said: "Master Xiao is greedy. Ren Qing has already said that this thing likes heat! I think on our existing land, we can have two seasons a year." It’s already a huge happy event! It’s going to be difficult three seasons a year!”
"Hahahaha..." Xiao Yu was refuted by Changsun Wuji, but he was not displeased at all. Instead, he stroked his long beard and smiled at Changsun Wuji: "I am greedy! But even if there are two seasons a year, it is better than The existing rice seeds are so much better! Not to mention that its yield per mu is 30% higher than the current yield per mu! From now on, it is estimated that in just five years, this rice seed will be planted all over the world! At that time, the world , there will be no more hunger and pain! Our Tang Dynasty will also be as stable as a rock!"
"Yes, yes, what Mr. Xiao said is true! People who live in warehouses know etiquette, and people who have enough food and clothing know honor and disgrace! By then, another prosperous age will come!" This is what a white-bearded civil servant said.
"Haha, when our army goes on an expedition, we won't have to worry about food and grass anymore! Hahaha..." This is what a military general said!
Everyone around was laughing, in front of this rice seed. No matter how different their political opinions may be, everyone's views are surprisingly unified.
Xiao Han was surrounded in the middle, with laughter filling his ears. He had no choice but to laugh awkwardly, although he still didn't know why he had to be called for such a thing, and he had to wait all morning!
Although this matter was his idea, in the final analysis, he just moved his mouth! Moreover, Xiao Han was not shameless enough to go out and take advantage of Ren Qing and the others' efforts.
"Xiao Han!" After a long time, Li Yuan finally spoke. The surrounding ministers also dispersed one after another, returned to the table, and made way for Xiao Han.
"I'm here!" Xiao Han, who was still thinking wildly, immediately raised his hands and saluted.
Li Yuan looked at Ren Qing, then at Xiao Han, and said in a deep voice: "Both Ren Qing and you have made great contributions to this matter! I should have rewarded you heavily, but at this time there are more important things for you. The two of them will be rewarded together once this matter is over!
"Is there anything else? I knew it couldn't be that simple!" Xiao Han was startled and quickly looked up at Li Yuan. At the same time, my mind was racing, wondering what else was going on!
Do you think there are too few rice seeds and plan to let yourself and Ren Qing go on another trip?
Thinking of this, Xiao Han trembled all over. Mommy! You can't do this even if you kill yourself! An expert like Ren Qing would lose half his life in just one trip, let alone an idiot like himself who can survive in the wild! In the current natural environment, if he could walk out of Sichuan alive, it would be like a pillar of smoke rising from his grave!
Seeing Xiao Han's silence, Li Yuan felt a little strange. He coughed lightly and asked, "Xiao Han? What, are you a little dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
"Wei Chen doesn't dare!" Xiao Han was startled, and quickly paid homage, and then sold Ren Qing without even thinking: "Wei Chen was just thinking that I was just cooperating in this matter, and Brother Ren Qing is the real one. Kudos to you for your hard work! Without him, we wouldn’t have been able to complete such an arduous task!”
"Hahaha..." Li Yuan didn't know that Xiao Han was trying to save his dead Taoist friend from death. Instead, he liked Xiao Han's attitude of not claiming credit. He pointed at Xiao Han and said: "Ren Qing naturally has merit. You don’t have to be humble! Without the information you provided, no one would know that there are such divine objects thousands of miles away!”
After speaking, Li Yuan paused, glanced at Xiao Han again and continued: "As for what you are asked to do, the people from Sinong Temple have already studied it with Ren Qing before you came. They all think that this Rice seeds are most suitable for cultivation in the south, so I plan to let you and Ren Qing lead a few good farmers to go to the south to try planting three-crop rice! I think your reward will be more justifiable when it actually produces rice!"
"Ah? You want me to farm?" Xiao Han was stunned, looking at Li Yuan with his eyes unblinking, his mind went blank!
God can tell you! In his last life, he went to his classmates' houses twice to play, and he did more bad things than good things! Now let him farm the land, or is it still such a precious food? If he dies as a seed, will Li Yuan be so angry that he buries himself in the soil and waits for it to sprout?
"Yes! This is highly recommended by Ren Qing and Shimin! They both said: Compared to others, you are the person who knows this kind of food best. So this important matter is temporarily in your hands, and you cannot refuse! Farming matters Don’t wait for anyone, just wait a moment and set off with Ren Qing, and I will make complete arrangements for you with the agricultural supervisor!”
"But……"
"Huh? But what?!"
Xiao Han wanted to say something else, but Li Yuan suddenly frowned and his tone became a little more serious. For a moment, words of evasion were stuck in my mouth, unable to speak out.
Seeing this, Li Shimin quickly stood up and cupped his hands and said: "Father, Xiaohou is probably afraid that he is still young and that he will not be able to follow the orders outside! If father had not issued military orders, things would have been smoother!"
Li Yuan thought for a moment and then readily agreed: "What Shimin said is absolutely true! Xiao Han, I will appoint you as the logistics supervisor of Zuowuwei! You are responsible for food and grass matters, and you have the power to make decisions! I hope you can work with Ren Qing. Complete this great event for the country!"
Come on, the military order has been issued, what else can you say? Xiao Han glanced at Li Shimin complainingly and had to shout long live!
Farming is urgent and there is no room for carelessness! After issuing the order, Li Yuan asked Xiao Han to step back and pack his things. He would set off before tonight and must reach his destination as soon as possible. As for the end point of this trip, it is located in Hanzhong on the other side of the Qinling Mountains.
As we all know, China uses the Qinling Mountains as the dividing line between north and south. North is the north of the Qinling Mountains, and south is the south of the Qinling Mountains. Although Hanzhong is still far from the true south, after discussions between Li Yuan and a group of important ministers, it was finally settled here.
I don’t dare to go further south. Further south is Sichuan and Shu.
If you are young, you will not go to Sichuan, and if you are old, you will not go to Shu! It is difficult for modern people to understand this sentence, but now, this sentence is a universal truth!
