Li Shimin looked very happy.
He showed a long-lost smile.
At this time, Queen Changsun suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Rengui and Lizhi are leaving for Qingzhou in the afternoon. Shall we see them off?"
Li Shimin stopped laughing.
This is an important thing, he forgot!
"Yeah, I almost forgot. There were too many things in the morning!
Of course I have to give it away! Let’s all go and see him off! Now he is a hero of the imperial court, and now he takes the initiative to invite him to leave Qingzhou. I cannot let him go to Qingzhou silently! Also, have someone send them the steamboat from before! "
The two times Xue Rengui went on expeditions, there was no fanfare to see him off, and Li Shimin felt a little sorry! This is not what an emperor should do, but it is his own family, so he cannot do this even more!
Li Shimin said this with great pride, feeling that everything was under his control, but this ship was owned by Li Min.
He didn't even ask for Li Min's opinion and made his own decision.
You probably know that Li Min will definitely agree, right?
He thought that if it were Li Min, he would definitely send Xue Rengui a steamboat for him to travel.
After all, Li Lizhi is also Li Min's sister.
Their brother-sister relationship is also good.
I just decided on his behalf what he would do! And Li Min may not go this time! No one exposed him on the spot, right?
"Yes! Your Majesty is wise! The prince-in-law will definitely be very happy after this?" Queen Changsun said
At this time, Li Shimin suddenly asked: "Will that kid send Xue Rengui on his trip?"
He asked deliberately!
It's trying to get something out of someone's mouth.
"I haven't heard of it! He just got married and has many things to do, so he probably won't go!" said Concubine Yang. This is her judgment.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter whether he goes or not! As long as we go!"
It didn't seem to matter whether Li Min showed up or not.
In Li Shimin's view.
That's it.
And why did Li Min want to see Xue Rengui off?
Will that steal Li Shimin's limelight?
It stole his limelight, and he wasn't happy.
When I'm unhappy, I have random thoughts.
And now Li Min doesn't have time to pay attention to that much.
Because what he is currently dealing with is extremely important.
At this time, there were dozens of people standing above the tenement building, their faces were dirty.
But what they were holding in their hands were some extremely precious seeds.
These people were the ones Li Min asked to set out from Chang'an two years ago in search of seeds.
Some people came back first because they traveled closer.
Such as cotton, sweet potato and corn, etc., come back relatively early.
But these crops were still not abundant enough for Datang.
To feed more people, a lot of cash crops are needed.
If you want farmers to earn more income, you need to bring more species into the Tang Dynasty to enrich the species so that people can get more planting.
Li Min already had a form in his mind.
They are also crops that he urgently needs, such as:
Watermelon: Originally from Africa, it entered the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty and was obtained from the Western Regions!
Luffa; native to Tianzhu, now connected with Tianzhu, it is very easy to obtain.
Banana: native to Southeast Asia, brought back from Tianzhu.
Chili pepper: native to America, introduced in the late Ming Dynasty.
Pumpkin: Introduced in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.
Apple: introduced in the late Qing Dynasty.
Cauliflower: introduced during the Guangxu Dynasty.
Cabbage: native to Europe.
Onion: native to West Asia.
Tomato: Introduced for cultivation in the 18th century
These ten crops were the ones he wanted most.
I don’t know if there are these things among these dozens of people.
Seeing these dozens of people standing in front of him.
Li Min directly invited them to sit down and chat.
"Come on, everyone, sit down and talk!"
But they said: "No, sir, we can just stand. We are afraid of dirtying sir's sofa!"
Everyone said so, so Li Min had no choice but to give up.
"How is the situation now?"
Li Min asked.
At this time, everyone took out the seeds they had obtained.
"Sir, these are the seeds I got from the south! They are edible when they are ripe, but they are useful for washing pots when they are overripe."
Li Min immediately understood that he was talking about loofah!
"Sir, I went over the mountains and found this in a plain! I heard that this thing can ward off the cold!"
This is chili!
"The crops produced by this thing are huge, green on the outside and red inside, very sweet, about the size of a person's arms."
This is watermelon!
"This thing is both a vegetable and a flower! It's delicious!"
This is cauliflower!
"The seeds I got are a vegetable that, when cut, will make people cry."
It's an onion!
"I got a banana-like plant, but the fruit it produced was green, and soon after I picked it, it turned yellow!"
It's a banana!
…
Each of them gave his own description.
And he also said that it is not easy to get these things.
There are many places where the seeds are not allowed to be taken away, and they risk their lives to obtain them.
Li Min also remembered that at least 500 people were sent out, but less than 100 came back.
This also proves that these seeds are hard-won.
Wealth is sought in danger, and the reason why they are so desperate is because of their interests.
Some people go from looking in their twenties to looking like they are fifty in two years.
But they have no regrets, because when they come back, the benefits they get from Shengtang Group will be enough for them to spend ten lifetimes.
Li Min said at the time that he would not treat them badly.
As long as they can find what they want, money isn't an issue.
"Okay, okay! Great!"
Li Min was very excited as he cleaned up the things sent by these people.
The ten things he wanted were there, and there were some things he hadn't thought of.
Dozens of people received a total of about twenty kinds of crops.
Some of them were already present in the Tang Dynasty.
These things don't do much.
But those ten things are very important.
Therefore, Li Min said: "Thank you for your hard work, I will sort out the next weight now! There are some things that I don't need here, but you can get them back, thanks to your hard work! The reward will naturally not be too small!"
Everyone was excited.
This time I went out, after all, it was not in vain.
Li Min then divided out ten kinds of seeds, and he also divided the other ten kinds into equal parts.
Everyone also believed that he would not mess around, and there was no need for it.
"These ten things are among the ten pieces of information I have provided to you. The person who obtains each thing will get one million taels each!"
Wow.
Everyone was in an uproar.
One million taels!
That is really enough for them to spend ten lifetimes.
You know, ordinary people can only earn about ten taels a year.
After experiencing the development of Shengtang Group, everyone's income in Chang'an increased to fifty taels.
That one million taels is equivalent to twenty thousand times!
It's not just ten lifetimes.
When people heard this, they were so happy that they flew into the air.
Then, Li Min changed the topic.
