"Li Hao, see your Majesty!"
Li Hao bowed his hands in an upright manner.
"Good, great good..."
The misunderstanding was resolved, Li Shimin looked at Li Hao with joy, and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
"Li Hao, I am honest about my purchase of grain this time. I can only issue an IOU."
When Li Shimin finished speaking, he blushed a little.
Cough cough cough, Fang Xuanling coughed a few times, and immediately added: "My little friend, once the treasury has money, I will personally deliver it to my little friend."
Li Hao waved his hand indifferently and said: "That's all, that's all... As long as these grains are used to relieve the victims, Li Hao is willing to take no money..."
Ah...this...
Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling were all shocked.
What kind of young man is this?
He is so open-minded.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, and the eldest grandson Shangshu, please come to the villa to talk..."
In Lijia Village, the people learned that the one who came was really the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and they all hid in the distance and watched from a distance.
Seeing that the young master was having a pleasant conversation with His Majesty, the villagers felt relieved.
Li Hao led Li Shimin and his party into the living room.
"Huo'er, Ling'er... quickly serve tea and prepare wine and food."
"Here..."
The two maids also knew that the three people who came yesterday were actually the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, the Prime Minister and the eldest grandson Shangshu.
At this moment, the timid head didn't even dare to raise its head.
There is no way, the gap in status is really too big.
"You two girls, please don't be restrained. I would also like to thank you for the gift of food yesterday!"
Fang Xuanling's words relieved the tension of the two maids whose tea-making hands were shaking.
"Li Hao, please tell me how much food you can sell to me?"
"I don't dare to tell you too many things to reply to Your Majesty. You can take everything away from the cave in the back mountain. There are still twenty to thirty thousand stones..."
After Li Hao finished speaking, Li Shimin and the three of them almost sat down on the ground.
If there are really 20,000 to 30,000 shi of food, not only can the problems of the victims be solved, but the salaries of the officials can also be solved.
"I have looked carefully. Lijiazhuang only has a few thousand acres of land and supports more than a hundred people. How can it get so much food?"
Li Shimin's doubts were also those of Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji.
The grain output of the Tang Dynasty was generally about one stone per mu, and even the most fertile land was only two stones.
Even if the land in his Lijiazhuang is fertile, it would be good to have a surplus after removing the rations.
"Of course it's because our young master has implemented a new planting method."
The words of the two maids shocked Li Shimin and the three of them beyond measure.
Li Shimin looked at Li Hao, his eyes sparkling, as if he were looking at a treasure.
"My friend, can you tell me what the new planting method is?"
Li Hao nodded with a smile and said: "It's just a change in the past planting habits and methods. Plant wheat in autumn and harvest it in early summer; plant beans in summer and harvest beans in autumn..."
"This cycle repeats, harvesting two crops of food a year, and our Lijia Village has more and more natural food."
Li Shimin suddenly stood up: "So, is there wheat in the ground now?"
"Yes, and the seeds have begun to sprout..."
"Come on, take me to see you."
In front of a piece of fertile land, Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling were stunned.
Green and tender wheat seedlings are breaking out of the ground, and the clusters are very green and even.
"Can they survive the long winter?"
Changsun Wuji's doubts were also those of Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling.
"Changsun Shangshu, if there is auspicious snow in winter, it is their quilt. Even if there is no auspicious snow, they can resist the severe cold and survive the cold winter."
After Li Hao finished speaking, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling burst into tears.
"Your Majesty, God bless the Tang Dynasty, God bless the Tang Dynasty..."
"With this kind of planting method, our Tang Dynasty will never have to worry about lack of food."
"Your Majesty, please give me credit for Li Hao!"
Li Shimin had already walked excitedly back and forth in the wheat field several times.
As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, how could Li Shimin not be excited.
"Li Hao, tell me, what reward do you want?"
Li Shimin's eyes were like torches. He stared at Li Hao with Xingmei Jianmu, and he felt more and more that this child was kind to him from the bottom of his heart.
"Your Majesty, can you get me two shops in the East and West Market?"
Li Shimin almost lost his temper.
This kid held it in for a long time, and it was for a few shops.
Let alone two shops, even if there are ten or eight shops, Li Shimin can only say a word.
"Your Majesty, be careful...those who engage in business are not allowed to become officials..."
At the critical moment, Prime Minister Fang Xuanling reminded him in a low voice.
Li Shimin also came to his senses instantly.
"Li Hao, the matter of the shop is really simple, but I don't want you to go into business. You have great talents and you need to show your talents in the court!"
After Li Shimin finished speaking, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling also smiled and stroked their beards.
At such a young age, this boy is extremely intelligent. Once he becomes an official, he will be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister just around the corner!
"To tell you your Majesty, the shop is prepared for the two maids. I want them to be able to sell tea in spring and summer and vegetables in autumn and winter..."
Plop, plop, plop...
Li Shimin and the three of them fell to the ground. Fortunately, the soil was soft and the buttocks of the three of them were not seriously injured!
The eyes of Li Shimin and the three of them widened, and their eyebrows and beards jumped together!
Selling tea in spring and summer is understandable, but selling vegetables in autumn and winter is really appalling!
"My little friend, did I hear you correctly? You can also sell vegetables in winter?"
Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji also looked at each other. There is no vegetables this winter. What are you going to sell?
"Fang Xiang, of course you can sell vegetables in winter, and you can get them at a good price!"
"My little friend, having said that, where does the food come from? Could it be that it falls from the sky?"
"The prime minister was joking, the food comes from Lijiacun of course!"
After Li Hao finished speaking, Li Shimin and the three of them opened their eyes wide and gasped for air.
"My little friend, is there food in Lijia Village now?"
It is late autumn now, let alone the Prime Minister's house, even Li Shimin has not tasted vegetables for a long time.
Although the palace had a soup-warmer, it still took time to cultivate vegetables.
Wen Tang Supervisor cultivates vegetables next to the hot spring. The quantity is extremely rare and it is impossible to buy or sell them.
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, the eldest grandson Shangshu...of course there are dishes..."
"The maids should be almost ready. Why don't we chat while eating..."
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji helped Li Shimin up: "Your Majesty, this young man is not simple..."
"Xuanling, auxiliary engine... please try your best to persuade me to drink at the banquet!"
"You can tell the truth only after drinking. I suspect that this person has an expert's guidance behind his back!"
"Your Majesty is wise, Your Majesty is wise!"
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji patted the soil for Li Shimin, and the three of them followed Li Hao in stride!
