Chapter 156 Hybrid Rice
Dan'er was excited and cursed Sima Daozi in front of the four powerful ministers. He was so angry that he blushed and his eyes were powerful. He was about to attack, but when Xie An first reacted, he slapped the table heavily, and scolded Dan'er: "Rareless, you bold slave, actually insulted the royal relatives, what should you be guilty of insulting the royal relatives?!"
Dan'er then realized that he had caused trouble. Insulting the royal relative in the Eastern Jin Dynasty was a serious crime. Who is the mother of the King of Langya? That was the Empress Dowager Xuanci of the dynasty! This was a crime of deceiving the king! However, when the King of Langya exposed his scars in public, this kind of insult was unbearable. Now that he scolded him, it has become a fact, so he bowed and defended: "Prime Minister, the mother of Langya is the mother, isn't my mother Xie Dan'er's mother? They were all born to her, so I allowed him to scold my mother, so I can't scold his mother? Besides, he relied on his power to seize my wife, so can't I scold me?"
"Puchi..." Sima Dewen smiled violently and said to King Langya: "Uncle Wang, you even like the wife of this slave? Why did your taste suddenly become lower?!"
"Yes, King Langya, you haven't re-struck for more than ten years, and now you are actually snatching a woman from a slave, and you are not afraid of laughing at the world?" Hengsheng laughed.
Sima Daozi was a little embarrassed. Even though Su Xiaoxiao was the best in the world, she was the brothel courtesan who snatched from Dan'er. He was a dignified royal relative, his wife who snatched a slave or a brothel woman. He was indeed a little unfair, so he stammered: "Everyone doesn't know that I will renovate a princess on the eighth day of the month. When you see me, you will know why I want to take someone's wife!"
"Hmph," Xie An snorted contemptuously and sighed: "Since that's the case, it's fine for me to see this slave scolding you. Why don't you see what he can do?!"
What else can I do? I will make a mistake. Sima Daozi didn't want to argue with a slave here. After getting Xie An's steps, he nodded with the situation.
Dan'er knew that it was the Prime Minister who pulled him and bowed, "Little Xie Dan'er thanks the Prime Minister!"
"Don't be too polite!" Xie An stared at him for a long time, feeling that Xie Daner was extremely kind, so he asked with kindness: "Are you the Xie Daner that the champion general often talks about?"
"It's just that!" Dan'er replied, feeling that Xie An felt an unusually intimate feeling.
"What's wrong? The Prime Minister also knows this slave?" Sima Dewen asked in surprise. So many troubles emerged before the interview began.
Xie An bowed slightly and said, "Go back to Your Highness, the old minister has only heard his nephew talk about this person, but has never seen him."
Sima Dewen said, "That's even more interesting. A humble slave actually knew Uncle Wang, Prince Xima and Prime Minister! I don't know what you have, so I dare to come to my Juxian Pavilion to apply for a job!"
"When you go back to the Crown Prince, the villain has no ability. He just promised others that he must come and take the exam." Dan'er replied.
Sima Dewen frowned and said, "Then your original intention doesn't want to come? What do you think I am Juxian Pavilion? How dare you look down on me so much?"
Dan'er hurriedly said, "The prince calms down. The villain just feels that he is not talented and cannot take this great task, and is even less worthy of Juxian Pavilion. However, since he has fulfilled his promise, he has to fulfill his promise and must come and try it."
Still self-aware, Sima Dewen curled his lips and said, "Okay, let me ask you, how can my Jin Dynasty develop in the future to conquer the world?"
Is it still worthy of the world? The country is about to be destroyed, and my son Liu Jinu replaced him. Dan'er found it funny, but when he came, he had to say something, so he bowed to several judges: "Since the end of the Han Dynasty, the world has been in chaos, and heroes have emerged. After the Three Kingdoms, they have come to the Jin Dynasty. Although they claim to be unified, they are actually deceived. A large area of mountains and rivers in the north are still in the hands of barbarians and barbarians. The countless people in China are still living under the rule of foreign races. Although they have repeatedly made northern expeditions, they have returned in vain. The country and the country are getting smaller and smaller, and they are even smaller than the territory of the Former Qin Dynasty. If it is not our people, they are actually weak in the government..."
"Cough cough..." Xie An heard that he was so weak that the prince was afraid that the prince would blame him, so he interrupted him with a dry cough.
Dan'er smiled faintly at Xie An and continued: "If the Great Jin wants to unify the north, the main enemy is the Former Qin. Former Qin Fu Jian, Wang Meng, Murong Chui and others are eyeing our Great Jin and want to destroy me. At this moment, they are raising their troops to fight to the death with me. A small estimate is that within a year and a half, the Great Jin will compete with the 800,000 tiger and wolf troops on the shore of Feishui. However, our Great Jin is now a major general, and the people are floating in the affairs. Extraordinary trend is growing. If you don't quickly innovate the army and stabilize the people, it will be difficult to resist the iron hoof of the Former Qin. Therefore, the most urgent task is to expand the army, take back the private army of the aristocratic clans for use by the state, and prohibit the vassal kings and aristocratic clans from raising private troops to ensure the absolute imperial power of the court, as well as the military rule and military strength of the court!"
"Nonsense!" The King of Langya slapped the table and shouted at Dan'er: "The private soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty are an inseparable part of the imperial military power. They can not only protect the imperial court, but also resist foreign enemies. This is the rule left by Emperor Taizu of the Great Jin Dynasty. How could you, a child, comment on it here?"
"Your Highness Langya, the little one is just to say it according to the facts. If you touch your interests, please don't blame me!" Dan'er bowed, knowing that the reduction of private soldiers and the imperial power had stabbed him in the pain.
However, weakening the private soldiers was exactly what Hengxuan wanted. He smiled and said, "It is possible to reduce private soldiers, but you, a dead slave, are here to destroy the prestige of the Great Jin Dynasty. Where did Fu Jian's son come from? Don't be sarcastic about the 800,000 troops here!"
Dan'er smiled disdainfully. It was clearly written in history books. Will I still be wrong? He defended: "Only by planning ahead can you grasp the opportunity. The Great Jin and the Former Qin Dynasty must have a battle that determines life and death. If the ruler does not even have such a long-term vision, how can he lead the people of the world? Water can carry boats and can also overturn the people of the world. The people of the world are the mainstream in this historical torrent. The court must follow the mainstream to stabilize the world!"
"A good person can carry a boat and can also overturn it. Well said!" Xie An had not waited for Sima Daozi and Hengxuan to speak again, and saw it first: "Your Highness, the old minister thinks that Xie Daner's words are reasonable. If I want to unify the north of the Great Jin Dynasty, I must have a decisive battle with Fu Jian's son, and make preparations as soon as possible!"
"What a f*ck!" King Langya slapped the table and said, "What did you say just now? Water can carry a boat and can also overturn it. Are you trying to rebel?"
"That's right, you are so brave!" Heng Xuan shouted.
Dan'er smiled coldly: "Don't be anxious, two, I'm just saying one thing. Are there still fewer untouchables rebelling in all dynasties?"
Sima Dewen nodded slightly. He still recognized Dan'er's words from his heart, but his words were too much derogatory to the aristocratic clans, which may shake the foundation of the Great Jin and the imperial power of the Sima family. Therefore, it is not convenient to express his opinion. He just asked Dan'er: "Xie Dan'er, the Great Jin and the Former Qin Dynasty will inevitably have a battle, but the current situation is that our Great Jin is short of food and grass, and the people are not yet full. How can we support the Great Jin army's northern expedition?"
Grain and grass? It’s grain and grass again! Is the grain in Dajin really that little? Dan'er thought about it and suddenly realized: "The lack of grain and grass in Dajin is mainly due to agricultural planting problems!"
"What do you mean?" Xie An asked anxiously.
"It's actually very simple. The territory of Dajin is mostly in the south. You can change the planting method and plant rice for two seasons, and then change the rice variety. You can completely increase the rice harvest by quadruple!" Dan'er said.
Sima Dewen said angrily: "I am so arrogant. After decades, my agricultural technician in Jin Dynasty has only increased the rice harvest by 10%. How dare you say quadruple it!"
Can your seeds be compared with those of my hometown? Dan'er smiled coldly: "The agricultural technicians in Dajin took a detour and didn't know the improved varieties. They would not be able to increase their yields anyway!"
"What improved variety?" Xie An asked again.
“Hybrid rice!”
Sima Daozi slapped the table and shouted: "Your mother is so big, don't talk nonsense here. Can people eat hybrid things?"
"Sima Daozi, are you going to curse again?" Dan'er said at him rudely again.
Sima Dewen smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, let's hear how this guy explains."
Seeing that the prince seemed to be very concerned about this issue, Dan'er asked again: "Your Highness, how much is the per mu rice yield of Dajin?"
This... Sima Dewen glanced at Xie An. Xie An knew that this playboy had no understanding of the government affairs at all, so he replied: "Last year, the yield of rice per mu was less than four stones."
Four stones? Dan'er knew that this stone was about 100 kilograms, and four stones were about 400 kilograms, which was exactly one-quarter of the yield per mu of his hometown. He smiled and said, "Okay, if hybrid rice can be used, I guarantee that it can produce 16 stones per mu, which is exactly two. In this way, not only will the people of the world be able to eat enough, but they can also save a lot of supply war demand. If there is no worries about war preparations, our Iron Army of Jin will be in high morale and will be just around the corner!"
Dan'er's words made the prince feel a little moved, but Sima Daozi and Hengxuan sneered, thinking that Dan'er was a fool and disdained his words.
Only Xie An stood up excitedly and asked, "I don't know where to get hybrid rice!"
Dan'er smiled and said, "The villain's hometown is everywhere! Not only are they big and fat, but they are also extremely sweet and delicious! If the Prime Minister wants to, the young man will bring you some back next time he goes home."
Xie An frowned and asked again, "I remembered it. Xuan'er said that the food you transported to him at the Feishui River shore is particularly sweet. Could it be that it is hybrid rice?"
“That’s right!”
"Okay, okay, Your Highness, if I planted hybrid rice in Jin Dynasty, I will definitely have a lot of people and wealth, and a strong army and a rich country. Are you still afraid that the country will not be unified at that time?" Xie An was obviously a little excited and bowed to Sima Dewen and said, "According to what the old minister saw, Xie Dan'er did have some talent. The old minister suggested that he be admitted on the spot and let him be responsible for the hybrid rice!"
"Ahem..."
"Ahem..."
Sima Daozi and Hengxuan coughed twice at the same time, and winked at Sima Dewen. Sima Dewen understood and straightened his body, and said to Xie Daner: "Xie Daner, you go out first. I agree with the three dear ministers. If you are admitted, you can wait for the notification outside!"
