Looking at the smile on Zhang Tu¡¯s face, Liu Heng was really confused for a moment, but it was already noon since he set off in the morning, and he was indeed a little hungry.
Seeing Zhang Tu being so earnest in persuading him, and having been robbed by Zhang Tu just now, I still feel a little bit guilty in my heart.
Seeing that the emperor was a little moved, the eldest princess hurriedly stepped forward, took the glass bowl next to her, made a bowl of polenta for the emperor, and then handed it over carefully.
Liu Deng knelt on the ground, staring at the emperor eating slowly with 120,000 resentments.
If looks could kill, Liu Heng would probably be riddled with holes at this moment.
"This stuff tastes good. When you go back, ask them to pass a copy of this recipe to the imperial chef!"
He drank half a bowl of porridge, ate a few tortillas, and then some snacks. He had to say that this food really suited his appetite. A creature like the emperor never knew what it meant to be polite. After finishing the porridge, he immediately spoke.
"Your Majesty, the houses in front of you are the new grains that my king is cultivating. In order to promote them to the whole country faster, my king has spared no expense to build these things. Why don't you invite my king? How about giving His Majesty a tour?"
It is now March. After nearly four months of growth, the corn in the greenhouse has also reached the mature season. The ones that the emperor eats are specially selected by Liu Deng.
It was then dried overnight and finally ground into powder. Now was the perfect time for the emperor to experience the terrifying output of this thing.
¡°In that case, it¡¯s not my fault?¡±
Liu Heng said with some self-deprecation.
"Your Majesty is serious, this is really because my king is too pure and filial, so that there is such a misunderstanding!"
Zhang Tu¡¯s smiling face makes people want to punch him. Isn¡¯t this tnd praising himself in a different way?
Liu Deng suddenly noticed that the emperor's eyes seemed to have been staring at Zhang Tu's neck for a long time. It seemed that Liu Heng was also hesitating whether to chop this arrogant old man with a knife.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, then get up! Take me to see what new tricks you've come up with!"
The emperor's tone of voice finally returned to calmness again, and Liu Deng breathed a long sigh of relief. Could this be the legendary unwarranted disaster?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Liu Deng struggled a few times before getting up. This was the first time he had knelt for such a long time since he came to this world.
Fortunately, the ground here is still soft. Liu Deng couldn't help but secretly feel lucky. Fortunately, the cement road has not been built here yet. Otherwise, he would not have to use his knees after kneeling here for so long.
After leading the emperor into the greenhouse, the emperor was immediately stunned by the sight in front of him.
He had never seen the plants here before. They had thick rhizomes and slightly yellowed leaves. Corn was originally a high-yielding crop. Perhaps it was because this thing followed Liu Deng through the wormhole, and its vitality became even more vigorous. Any of these plants The corn stalks are almost as thick as a child's arm.
Especially now, they are almost mature, nearly two meters tall, and look like a forest.
"This, this is food?"
Liu Heng was already stunned. Whose grain grows like a small tree!
"Your Majesty, this thing is also a treasure! Look, this is its fruit. Basically, each plant can bear two. Your Majesty just ate this!"
As Liu Deng spoke, he stepped forward, skillfully broke off an ear of corn, tore off the leaves on it a few times, and handed it to the emperor.
Liu Heng was a little stunned. Compared with wheat and rice, this thing is really too big.
"How to eat this thing?"
Liu Heng¡¯s eyes lit up. Although he still doesn¡¯t know how much this thing can produce per mu, he can tell just by looking at its size that it must be much more than corn and wheat.
"It can be eaten raw or cooked directly. If it is convenient to store, it can also be dried and ground into powder. It is just like flour and has a sweeter taste. This food is a crude fiber food, which is especially suitable for The elderly and children with weak spleen and stomach!¡±
This is a good time to promote products, Liu Deng immediately started to talk eloquently, and even the word crude fiber slipped out without noticing.
"What???Crude fiber? "
Liu Dong did not expect that the emperor listened so carefully and could hear every word clearly.
This is really a bit embarrassing. We are only in the Han Dynasty now. How can I explain to him what dietary fiber is
"Uh I don't know this grandson very well. I just heard what he said casually when I got these seeds from that stranger"
Fortunately, Liu Deng's mind moved quickly enough and he threw all the questions directly to the legendary stranger.
The good emperor has no intention of pursuing these things now. He is more concerned about the value and output of this thing.
"What's the yield per mu of this thing?"
As the emperor spoke, his eyes widened.
"I still don't know about this grandson, but it looks like it's five or six stones, right? Grandpa Huang came at the right time. This thing has reached the mature season now. This greenhouse is exactly one acre of land. It's not as good as now How about just letting people come in to harvest?¡±
This is the highest level of flattery. These corns are almost all mature now. If it weren't for waiting for the emperor, he would have finished harvesting them long ago.
No matter how much you say about output, it is not as intuitive as what the emperor saw with his own eyes. After all, people still believe that seeing is believing.
"Oh? If that's the case, let them start quickly, but don't miss the farming season!"
As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Heng certainly understands the importance of the farming season. The spring plowing is almost over. If we harvest now, we still have time to plant another crop quickly.
"No!"
Liu Deng quickly called his guards and asked them to start harvesting together.
Liu Heng stood there, watching their work with great interest. After watching for a while, he actually rolled up his sleeves and started to work in person.
Seeing that the emperor went into battle in person, the princess, Liu Deng, and Zhang Tu could only follow behind and got busy.
Dozens of people worked together, and it took almost no time. In more than an hour, one acre of corn had been harvested.
Looking at the hill-like pile of grain on the ground, Liu Heng's heart was full of surprises. It must have cost more than ten kilograms!
Liu Denglian snickered on the side. This thing does seem to be quite a lot. As for the small matter that there is a cob in the corn, it is better to throw it aside now
"It seems that I did the right thing when I sent you to Daiguo. Although the third child died early, you taught this child well!"
Liu Heng suddenly let out a sigh of relief, patted Zhang Tu on the shoulder and said. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
