Chapter 7 Make up the questions by yourself(1/2)
Why are these eunuchs so frightened?
Because in their hearts, the king Lu Yu is not only mean and mean, but also rarely even smiles on his face, but this man can actually make his master laugh from the bottom of his heart, nothing else.
It can be said that this kind of ability to flatter and flatter people is at its peak, and it is far beyond what they can match.
Facing Lu Yu's laughter, Lin Fengjin said with a straight face:
"Your Majesty, you don't know. This rice is called Koshihiko Lotus Mist Rice. It is a special product that I plundered from the transport ships of the countries in the East China Sea. I tried all possible means and lost all my money to successfully plant it in our Daqi. The soup cooked with this rice,
What is it if it’s not rice soup?”
When Lu Yu heard about things related to the countries in the East China Sea, he immediately became concerned and said:
"Oh? There is such a thing?"
Lin Fengjin said:
"That's right, the priests and elites such as the Red Flags in the East China Sea countries have to eat such a meal cooked with Koshihikari Renwu rice every few days to replenish their vitality, because this rice grain also contains traces of...
The aura of heaven and earth is extremely beneficial to the human body. What has just been cooked is the juice in the Koshihiko Lotus Mist rice. Isn’t it just rice soup?"
Lu Yu nodded slightly, agreeing with Lin Fengjin's statement. He picked up the cup and took another sip, savoring it carefully. He felt that it was as sweet and delicious as juice, but it also had an indescribable richness like chicken soup.
The feeling made my throat and abdomen feel indescribably full. I couldn't help but nodded and said:
"Yes, yes, it is indeed very good. I have also read the medical scriptures. It said that rice soup, also known as rice oil, has the power to strengthen the hair orifices and make the fattest people. If the black and thin people eat it, they will become fat and white in a hundred days. It nourishes
The power of yin is better than cooked ground. Even babies from poor families can grow up by drinking rice soup. Your Yueguang Lianwu rice is the best among rice. The quality of the cooked rice soup is extraordinary.
."
When Lin Fengjin heard what Lu Yu said, he immediately smiled. However, life is always full of ups and downs, and surprises and disasters often come alternately. Lu Yu's next sentence with a smile immediately hit Lin Fengjin.
Eighteen levels of hell:
"It's rare that you are so thoughtful. From now on, this thing will be listed as a tribute. A thousand stones will be paid as tribute every month."
Lin Fengjin was stunned for a moment as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. He soon came back to his senses and said with a wry smile:
"Your Majesty, even if you kill my whole family, you won't be able to get so much as tribute. The benefit of this thing is that it can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and infuse it into your own fruit. This means that it can only be used in
It grows under conditions where the mountains and rivers have abundant aura, and more importantly, planting this thing is extremely complicated. In terms of fertilization alone, it is divided into meat and vegetable fertilizer, vegetarian fertilizer, rotten fertilizer, fresh fertilizer, etc."
"And as early as hundreds of years ago, Yan Zi said: Oranges are oranges when they grow in Huainan, and they are oranges when they grow in northern Huaibei. The leaves are similar, but the actual taste is different. So what is the reason? The water and soil are different. This Yueguang lotus mist rice spans
After crossing the ocean, it is already good to be able to successfully grow in the Central Plains. Your Majesty... Even if you kill my whole family, you will not be able to pay a tribute of one thousand dan."
At this time, Lu Yu had already signaled the eunuch next to him to pour himself another pot of "rice soup" to drink. It seemed that this thing was indeed to Lu Yu's appetite. After a while, he smiled and said:
"Then how much tribute can you pay?"
Lin Fengjin said helplessly:
"This is mainly related to the aura of the planting area. As long as the aura is sufficient, the natural yield will be high. If the aura is insufficient, the yield will naturally be low."
Lu Yu laughed and cursed:
"I knew you were going to be up to no good when you came to the door. You went round the way to ask me for a place, right? Come on, let's be honest, I have my sights set on which imperial village. Let me tell you quickly, but the six villages outside Yedu are
You can't move because I have promised to leave."
Lin Fengjin didn't expect such an unexpected surprise. Surrounded by mountains and rivers, there is aura. Places with aura are either too many or too little. They are always named mountains and rivers. Originally, Lin Fengjin planned to spend the time.
It was redeemed at a large price, but with Lu Yu's words, naturally he didn't have to worry too much. He went directly to the local official with the decree and gave him more than ten thousand silver. How dare this official not do his best?
He immediately said happily:
"Then thank you very much. If I can have more than a hundred acres of land at the foot of Jianshan Mountain, I can pay ten stones to the palace every month."
Lu Yu frowned and said:
"So few?"
However, Lu Yu is also a sensible person. The thousand stones are just talk. The thing Lin Fengjin made must be very precious. If nothing else, it can be seen from his own Mr. Hong.
, you must know that at this time, the power of Northern Qi is used to support this demon horse, but this guy is still picky, but this Yueguang Lianwu rice can't even be said to be cooked rice.
It eats the outer pods that are peeled off with gusto. Just because my old friend likes to eat, I can't treat him badly."
Therefore, Lu Yu immediately said:
"I will enclose a thousand acres of farmland for you at the foot of Jianshan Mountain, and you will pay a tribute of eighty shi every month."
Lin Fengjin smiled bitterly and said:
"Your Majesty, this rice is good at absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is completely different from ordinary rice. Planting more than a hundred acres of this field will probably consume all the spiritual energy in a radius of hundreds of miles. It will take half a year to recover...
....”
Lu Yu felt a little impatient, waved his hand and said:
"I don't care so much. You must pay eighty stones to the palace every month. The quality is not allowed to drop, Liu Lu??"
At this time, most of the eunuchs' names were arranged in the order of fortune, wealth, longevity and happiness. Ever since Eunuch Cui committed the crime, his power has been divided among four people. Liu Lu is one of them. When he hears the master's call
, hurriedly ran up and said:
"The slave is here."
Lu Yu thought for a while and took out a small seal from his waist. It was the one he used in the imperial study room. It said "Lord of the Four Dimensions" on it, and then threw it to Liu Ludao:
"I like the Yueguang Lotus Mist rice brought by Lin Fengjin very much, but it is extremely difficult to plant. You need to find fields everywhere. When you go to court, you can hold my private seal and go with Lin Fengjin.
Go to Gong Shi, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and tell him that it is my wish to have him handle this matter, and then come back and reply to me. Do you understand?"
Liu Lu immediately knelt down and said:
"My slave knows."
At this time, I heard a very pleasant ding-dong sound coming from the stove, like spring water trickling down, and like a small stick tapping gently on the bowl. Everyone was a little curious. Lu Yu said
Look, the skin of the Koshihikari lotus rice in the gauze automatically cracked and made a soft sound, just like an egg shell.
As soon as Lin Fengjin heard this voice, he said:
"The heat is here."
He used tongs to take out the rice one by one, and then wrapped it in bamboo leaves. He wiped off the shell crumbs with a gentle wipe, revealing the tender and green rice meat inside. He sliced it with the silver knife next to it.
It just feels so tender that it melts in your mouth. But it has the texture of rice. After eating it, the smell that comes out is particularly fragrant.
Lu Yu ate a few slices and praised:
"The ancients said: Eating makes you forget your worries. I originally thought that eating was such an exaggeration. Only today did I realize that this is true."
Seeing Lu Yu eating happily, Lin Fengjin looked around and gritted his teeth and said:
"Your Majesty...Actually, this time I came to the palace not for farm matters. I didn't dare to bother Your Majesty with such trivial matters."
After Lu Yu heard this, he immediately laughed and said:
"I know that you are a guy who doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Just tell me. For the sake of the Feng Yu Hou's happiness today, I will consider you to have passed the test."
Lin Fengjin looked around with a very embarrassed expression. Lu Yu naturally waved his hand and told the others to move back three feet. Then Lin Fengjin muttered for a long time before speaking:
"Well...it seems like the provincial examination will be held in a few days."
Lu Yu nodded and said:
"good."
At this time, his face began to look ugly:
"Could it be that you don't like the Enke I organized so much? Are you going to push back and forth again this time?"
Lin Fengjin smiled bitterly and sighed:
"Of course I am not such a ungrateful person, but...there have been many things going on in the past two years, Your Majesty. I, I am afraid that the article I am writing now will not be able to catch the eye of the examiner.
"
After Lu Yu listened to Lin Fengjin's words, his expression changed again and again. Finally he couldn't stop laughing and laughed, and said with a smile:
"No wonder you want me to retreat. It turns out that it's such a thing, isn't it? You, a high-ranking disciple of Donglin Academy, actually have times when you are not sure about the provincial examination?"
Lin Fengjin said with a bitter face:
"If I can give you half a year of hard work, then there's still some success, but those damn Donghai people didn't come by luck."
After hearing Lin Fengjin say "those damn Donghai people", Lu Yu's face also darkened and he said:
"I originally thought it was just scabies and leprosy, but looking at the way these guys are plundering in the south of the Yangtze River, they may become a serious problem! Speaking of which, you have contributed to this matter, if you hadn't been warning and reminding me, and taking it out
According to the frontline intelligence, our losses in Daqi are probably many times what they are now."
Lin Fengjin said:
"The countries in the East China Sea cannot be underestimated, otherwise they will suffer big losses. The reason is that the other side has the overwhelming advantage of water ships. There are many large ships in their army. The most in the Central Plains are five-masted ships.
, and there are many six-masted and seven-masted ships in the Eastern Navy, each ship can transport thousands of people and horses. If the wind and water are favorable, it can sail hundreds of miles in a day and night, land and plunder."
"And the soldiers and horses on the ship can also rest during the transportation. Unlike the cavalry who are tired and tired after running for hundreds of miles, they can be put into use as soon as they get off the ship, so it is a big problem!"
Lu Yu nodded slightly and said:
To be continued...
