Chapter 502 Waste Utilization (Part 2)

Liu Wenyuan felt that Li Hao did it on purpose.

Playing your own on purpose.

What grafting and what surviving are all nonsense.

He just wants to keep himself in fear for the next three years.

Since that's the case, it's better to be happy.

Thinking of this, Liu Wenyuan made up his mind: "Mr. Hou, can you tell the villain, what is the use of grafting? And if the grafting is successful, how can it be detected?"

"Yes, I'm a little scheming, I know how to ask." Li Hao raised his legs and pointed to the stool that Liu Wenyuan had just sat down, and asked him to sit down: "If you just left directly, in three years, the smoky land of Lingnan will definitely have a place for your family."

Looking at Li Hao's smiling face, Liu Wenyuan really wished he could punch him.

It turns out that there is really something wrong with this, this guy is really cheating himself.

Li Hao smiled slightly and waved his hand and said, "Don't be angry, I'm just joking with you. Don't you want to know what grafting is? I can tell you.

In fact, grafting is very simple, that is, to improve the genes of crops, so that they undergo some changes we hope for, such as shorter growth cycles, more delicious, more cold-resistant, etc.

Therefore, you must not underestimate your tasks in the next three years. If you can really complete them, you can definitely be said to be rewarded in the present and future generations. Even Your Majesty may reward you with great rewards."

"Really, really?" Liu Wenyuan's eyes lit up when he heard the reward.

Li Hao nodded: "Of course it's true, but the prerequisite is that you must be able to cultivate better wheat seeds. As for how you said how to judge whether the grafting is really successful... I won't hide it from you, I don't know."

"Ah? No, don't know?"

"Of course I don't know, because I have never seen successful cases." Li Hao spread his hands: "But I think if the cultivation is really successful, at least it will show results in terms of yield. Whether it is increasing or reducing production, or even ripening early, it should be different from normal wheat."

Well, since you said that, I will force myself to believe it, who made your fist bigger?

Although Liu Wenyuan is a squire, this does not mean that he does not understand farming.

In fact, as a gentry with more than 3,000 acres of land, Liu Wenyuan can definitely be regarded as a good farmer. Even ordinary tenants are somewhat inferior to him.

But if he wants to believe what Li Hao said about grafting, it is still a bit difficult. Even if he has understood the advantages of so-called grafting, he will inevitably feel uneasy.

Seeing that he was still full of hesitation, Li Hao pursed his lips and suddenly said, "Do you have a jerk in your family?"

The topic changed too quickly, and Liu Wenyuan couldn't react a little: "Uh..., yes, there are two. If Mr. Hou needs it, I can send someone to deliver it immediately."

What does sending someone to deliver it? Li Hao was stunned for a moment, and then he felt a sharp gaze stabbing from the entrance of the courtyard like a sharp sword.

It was Cheng Yinyin again, Li Hao was a little helpless. Is it interesting to hide outside and eavesdrop? I am not stupid. Can't you see the shadow on the ground?

Shaking his head, Li Hao ignored Cheng Yinyin who continued to hide, and continued, "No one asked you for those guzzlers. Is there any guzzler in your family meant that you know guzzlers can give birth to children with us Tang people, right?"

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Liu Wenyuan's face. He didn't know that he had just swam around on the edge of life and death. He responded embarrassedly in response to Li Hao's questioning gaze: "I know, I know a little, I have a friend..."

"Okay, you just need to know. As for whether it is your friend and Hu Ji or whether it is between you and Hu Ji, I don't care."

"No, no, Mr. Hou, I'm really a friend of mine."

Li Hao was speechless and said for a while: "Okay, I understand, it's your friend. But these are not important. What I want to tell you is that since people of different countries and races can give birth to children, why can't two different wheats from one south and one north be combined to produce another better crop?"

Yes, since everyone can give birth, why can’t wheat be born?

Liu Wenyuan became messy in an instant. On the one hand, he could not accept the fact of grafting rationally. On the other hand, there was a voice urging him. It must be OK, it must be OK. The reward from His Majesty the Emperor is there, bet, bet!

Outside the courtyard, Cheng Yinyin's pretty face was pink, and she spat fiercely and turned around and left: "Brother Dejian is so hateful, he is so dirty."

The purpose of her visit to Li Hao was also because there were too many squires gathering outside. Although those people were not as rumbling as before in front of the government gate, gathering at the door and whispering made people feel a little unhappy.

As for eavesdropping, Cheng Yinyin would never admit it. In her opinion, she was just walking a little slower, and there was nothing she could do about it, although she was a weak girl.

...

Half an hour later, Liu Wenyuan, who was fooled by Li Hao, left the Liu family mansion from the back door with two bags of seeds and went home sneakily.

Now he is shrouded in a huge sense of mission and regards improving wheat seeds as his lifelong ambition. After returning home, he immediately launched his servants at home and went out to collect all kinds of wheat varieties in the world, including southern, northern, Silla, Baekje, Dashi, Persian, and as long as he can buy them.

At the same time, several other wealthy families in Taiyuan Prefecture also received invitations from Li Hao, either to improve rice seeds or to improve tree seeds.

The people under the roof naturally did not dare to disobey Li Hao's orders. Whether they wanted to or not, they left the Liu family mansion with their mission and went back to prepare various experiments. However, not many people took Li Hao's words as true.

This is also impossible. After all, time is limited, and Li Hao cannot come one by one like he fooled Liu Wenyuan. Most people force their heads to press without drinking water, and they have to agree under high pressure.

For Li Hao, the reason for this arrangement is just to use the waste. These guys who are not evil but are determined to take advantage of the situation cannot be killed. Let them do grafting technology, and maybe they may have some surprises.

Even if it really doesn't work out in the future, it's okay. At worst, I'll just throw it all to Lingnan and be with the monkey.

At this point, the matter in Taiyuan Prefecture has basically come to an end, and the next thing is to deal with the troubles between the various Turkic tribes.

The conflict between the various Turkic tribes and the people of the Central Plains has been around for a long time, and it is not a matter of overnight resolution. High-pressure policies may play some role in a short period of time, but over time, some disgust will inevitably arise.

Historically, Li Shimin moved the Turks again because he was unable to deal with the conflict between the Turks and the people of Guanzhong and placed them in the Yinshan area as a buffer between Xueyantuo and the Central Plains.

This has temporarily solved the problem, but it also left seeds of distrust in the hearts of the Turkic tribes. Whenever there is a chance, it will immediately bite the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, at the moment, things in the future have not happened yet. Although Li Hao knows what will happen in the future, he cannot use this as evidence to eliminate the other party physically.

Therefore, if he wants to change all this, he can only change his way, ease the conflict in a relatively gentle way, subtly increase the sense of belonging in the Tang Dynasty, and ultimately achieve the goal of complete naturalization.
