    "Mom, is what you said true?" Chu Yunxi asked happily.

    "Nine times out of ten, we can come." Yun Shu nodded.

    "Mom, let's bring some potatoes back to eat." Chu Yunxi couldn't help but licked her lips as she thought of the delicious food she had for lunch.

    "Okay." Yun Shu explained that he would bring a cart of potatoes back tomorrow: not only should he eat this fresh food, but he would also give it as a gift. It is indispensable for the palace, the Duke's Mansion, and the clans that are close to each other.

    The next day, Chu Yunhao went to the imperial court early in the morning, but he did not hand over the book to the imperial court. Instead, he followed the emperor to the imperial study room after the imperial court.

    "Yun Hao, is it a good potato harvest?" The emperor asked happily. The potatoes in Huangzhuang have not grown yet, but he dug up a few potatoes planted behind the Qiankun Palace and looked at them. They were not small in size, and the yield should be high.  will be too low.

    "Uncle Huang, all the potatoes in my nephew's house grew out yesterday. The yield per mu is more than 4,000 kilograms. The potatoes in the Li family grew out. Yesterday, they sent someone to ask what to do with those potatoes." Chu Yunhao handed over the fold.  Go up.

    "More than four thousand kilograms? Such a high yield?!" The emperor stood up in surprise. Although he knew that potatoes were a high-yielding grain, he did not expect that the yield would be so high.

    "It is indeed so high and tastes good. We made a few yesterday and tasted it. Yun Xi and my mother liked it very much. It is also very filling and can partially replace food." Chu Yunhao nodded affirmatively.

    "Yun Hao, in this case, except for their own use, all the potatoes produced by the Li family are sent to the north. There has been a drought in Baoding for nine years in ten years. Every year, people go out to beg. Maybe they will starve to death. I hope  These potatoes can give some help to the people over there." The emperor made up his mind.

    All the people in the world are his subjects, and he feels sorry for anyone who doesn't have enough to eat. For this reason, he has reduced the farmers' taxes to the maximum extent. However, when encountering natural disasters and man-made disasters, he can't make it happen no matter how timely the disaster relief is.  Everyone has enough to eat.

    Chu Yunhao nodded. He knew that compared to the south of the Yangtze River, the north needed these potato seeds more: "Uncle Huang, you make the decision. I will fully cooperate with you."

    "This time, you will lead the team to deliver the potatoes to Baoding. You will urge the local government to distribute the potatoes and teach them how to grow them. You will also tell them that after the harvest in the autumn, the government will send the potatoes back intact at an appropriate price.  You have to tell them clearly about all the potatoes. You must be careful when picking them up. The rotten ones cannot be saved or used as seeds. You can only keep them for yourself." The emperor attached great importance to these potatoes and even sent troops to transport them.

    "Yes, I promise to complete the task." Chu Yunhao stood up and took over the task.

    "Uncle Huang, Li Jingwen's people sent something else this time." After saying that, she took out a chiming clock from a bag she carried with her. "She said this is called a chiming clock, and it can replace the hourglass to tell the time."

    He put the chiming clock on the table: "She divides the day into twenty-four hours, that is, each hour is divided into two hours. Uncle Emperor, you see, there are twelve numbers on it, representing twelve hours. Two  The numbers are divided into five grids. The shortest hour hand turns from one number to another for one hour, which is called the hour hand. One revolution is twelve hours, and two revolutions is twenty-four hours.  Just one day.¡±

    "Each time the longest hand jumps is one second, which is called the second hand, and one revolution is one minute, that is, one minute is equal to sixty seconds."

    "This neither long nor short hand jumps one frame per minute, which is called the minute hand. One revolution is one hour, that is, one hour is equal to sixty minutes."

    ¡°To sum up, one day is equal to twenty-four hours, one hour is equal to sixty minutes, and one minute is equal to sixty seconds. It is much more accurate than an hourglass to tell time.¡±

    "Did Li Jingwen make this thing?" The emperor looked at the three needles in the round plate that kept moving, making a clicking sound, and a spherical thing underneath was moving back and forth.  I can't believe it was made by a thirteen-year-old peasant girl.

    "Well, their servants have repeatedly confirmed that she researched it alone. In order to make this thing, she not only set up a small workshop in the yard, but also spent a lot of money to buy coke and fine steel. She was busy all day long.  This is what Spring Planting is all about.¡±

    "Why is it called a self-ringing bell?"

    ¡°I heard that it will automatically chime once an hour, so it is called a self-ringing bell.¡± Chu Yunhao explained.

    "Are you going to make this thing in the workshop?" The emperor also thought that the self-ringing clock was very good. It seemed to save trouble and the time was more accurate.

    "It depends on what Uncle Huang wants, we don't care." Chu Yunhao hasn't decided whether to do this yet.?Knowing that making this self-ringing bell will definitely make money, although money is a good thing, as a clan, too much money will burn your hands. He does not want to be involved in the vortex of fighting for the heir in the future.

    Although the ancestral teachings have direct descendants and no direct descendants, they are still wise today, but who knows what will happen in the future. Wise kings in history have not made the same mistakes. For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, through the Wu Gu Rebellion,  Prince Liu Zhi was killed.

    "You send the potatoes to Baoding first, and we can talk about the ringing of the bell later." The emperor tapped his finger on the table, thought for a while and said, "This matter is not urgent. The potatoes are the top priority. Send them there now. The land in the north is almost the same."  Once it's thawed, it's just the right time to raise seedlings and plant them, and you don't have to worry about them eating them as food."

    "Yes." Chu Yunhao also knew which end was heavier.

    "That Li Jingwen has to be rewarded. Since the potato yield per mu is so high, it has solved a lot of trouble for me. Yun Hao, what do you think she would like to order?" the emperor asked with a smile.

    "Uncle Huang, as a citizen of the Great Yan Empire, she is willing to donate her seeds to the court. It is up to Uncle Huang to decide whether to give her a reward or anything else." Although Chu Yunhao wanted to get the best for her, he knew the emperor's character.  , the more you argue, the stingier he becomes, so it¡¯s better not to argue and let him express himself freely.

    "I understand. You can go down first. You will bring the imperial edict of the reward, so we won't send anyone else to avoid wasting resources." The emperor waved his hand and let him go down.

    "Yes." Chu Yunhao thought that it would be better if he brought the eunuch there, otherwise the Li family would have to receive the eunuch who delivered the edict. Their family had never received the edict. If it was not done well, it would cause trouble for the eunuch.  .

    When Chu Yunhao returned to the General's Mansion, Yun Shu and his daughter had already returned. The potatoes and recipes used as gifts had been delivered to several homes. Everyone happily accepted them and returned the gifts.

    "Yun Hao, what are you going to do with those potatoes?" Yun Shu thought that there were still a lot of potatoes in Zhuangzi, and there should be some leftover besides growing them himself.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
