Red Mansion: Unparalleled Jade Young Master/red Mansion: Wrongly Married Qin Keqing at the Beginning

Zhao Qi glanced at Jia Jue in surprise, and said to Liu Tian, ​​"Cut it off."

Liu Tian hurriedly found a fruit knife, cut open the fruit, verified that it was not poisonous, then cut a small piece of flesh and gave it to Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi took it, and first smelled it, but there was still no smell.

He tried to bite a little bit, but he couldn't help but spit it out, the flesh was extremely hard, and the taste was astringent, extremely unpalatable.

Seeing Zhao Qi's appearance, all the courtiers looked at each other, but Ming Ji and Liu Sheng laughed together.

"Master Jia, what kind of fruit is this?" Finally, someone couldn't help asking.

Jia Jue smiled: "Your Majesty, this fruit is not eaten raw, but cooked."

Zhao Qi nodded: "Then leave it to the imperial chef to cook."

He was already a little impatient in his heart, and planned to end this matter.

However, Jia Jue suddenly said again at this time: "Your Majesty, I brought cooking utensils, why don't I let my minister cook for Your Majesty?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard the words, Jia Jue actually wanted to cook food in the Golden Temple?

"Lord Jia, don't act recklessly! This place is the Golden Luan Palace!" Immediately, an old official stood up and scolded Jia Jue.

After all, the Temple of the Golden Luan is solemn and solemn, how could it be possible to light a fire and cook here?

Mingji and Liusheng laughed even louder: "The boiler is on in the Jinluan Palace! It's an eye-opener, it's an eye-opener indeed!"

Zhao Qi also looked at Jia Jue with a puzzled expression. Jia Jue had always given him the impression that he was shrewd and intelligent. Why would he propose such a far-fetched proposal at this time?

In the eyes of everyone, Jia Jue looked at Zhao Qi, and said loudly: "I will never disappoint Your Majesty!"

Zhao Qi was taken aback when he heard the words, Jia Jue had something in his words, he took a deep look at Jia Jue, and decided to believe him this time:

"Prelude!"

Jia Jue smiled, and walked to the door of the Golden Temple amidst the blank, astonished, angry, or mocking gazes of the crowd.

There is a cauldron, a large barrel, and some other props here.

These are all prepared by him before.

He set up the pot, put in the firewood, and heated it up.

Afterwards, he took out a few strange fruits, cut them into thin shreds, and chopped peppers and other condiments together.

After finishing these, he put them into the pan and stir-fried them together.

In the next moment, a seductive aroma permeated the entire hall, and everyone couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

Fragrant, it is too fragrant.

Even Mingji and Liusheng, who had been laughing at Jia Jue just now, couldn't help but show emotion at this moment. They had never smelled such a fragrance.

Amidst the sound of everyone swallowing, Jia Jue filled some from the pot, then picked up a small bowl from the big bucket at the side, and walked into the hall again.

"Your Majesty, please have a taste." Jia Jue handed the bowl and plate to Liu Tian.

Liu Tian quickly handed the things to Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi picked up the chopsticks, glanced at Jia Jue, took a piece, and put it in his mouth.

Everyone swallowed their saliva and looked at him.

The next moment, Zhao Qi's eyes suddenly widened, he opened his mouth, and mumbled: "It's so spicy."

Everyone was stunned.

But then, they heard Zhao Qi say: "It's delicious!"

Under everyone's surprised eyes, Zhao Qi quickly emptied the plate.

"Okay! I haven't felt so hungry for a long time, and I still want to eat two big bowls of rice." After he finished eating, he sighed to everyone.

As he spoke, he looked at the contents in the bowl, and asked Jia Jue, "Is this object also made of that strange fruit?"

Jia Jue nodded: "What Your Majesty said is true, this is the mud of a rare fruit."

Zhao Qi took a sip, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "The taste is smooth and soft, good!"

At this time, Jia Jue said to the courtiers: "My lords, there are many more of this item, so you might as well comment on it."

Everyone looked at him, and finally someone couldn't help but ran outside the hall to taste it.

After this taste, they were all full of praise, and the old minister who criticized Jia Jue before was full of praise for it, calling it "really fragrant".

The chopped shreds in the cauldron were swept away very quickly, and all the fruit puree in the vat was also separated.

A while later, Zhao Qi finished eating the fruit puree in the bowl, and belched full of satisfaction.

He is full.

He sighed and asked Jia Jue, "What is the name of this strange fruit? How did you get it?"

Jia Jue smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this fruit is called potato, and it was accidentally bred by my minister."

"Oh? So it was planted, so I don't know what the yield is?" Zhao Qi was moved by hearing this. These potatoes can satisfy his hunger and satisfy his hunger, and they taste very good. He really wants to eat more.

Jia Jue said loudly: "A mu yields a thousand catties."

boom!

Click!

The moment Jia Jue finished speaking, there was a sound of falling cups and plates in the hall...

Chapter 247 Benefiting the People

Amidst the series of cracking sounds, Zhao Qi stood up suddenly, looked at Jia Jue and asked excitedly:

"Jia Jue, are you serious?"

How can he not be excited?

You know, the current grain yield per mu is only two to three hundred catties, but this potato has a thousand catties, which is simply inconceivable.

These potatoes are filling and flavorful enough to serve as a main meal.

If the whole world implements it, it will cause the world's grain production to increase several times.

What is this concept?

This means that in the future, the entire Han Dynasty will completely get rid of famine, and the population will experience a huge increase.

And what followed was that the country was thriving and its national strength continued to increase.

This merit is in the present age, it will benefit the future, and it is a great deed that will benefit all peoples!

And this is also the reason why all the courtiers smashed the bowls.They are also very clear about the meaning behind this incident.

Jia Jue said loudly: "Your Majesty, I will never dare to deceive you."

Zhao Qi's eyes widened upon hearing this, his breathing became heavy, and a flush appeared on his face.

He took a few steps on the spot, and suddenly asked Jia Jue:

"Where did this thing grow? How many months in a season?"

The environmental requirements and growth cycle of crops are very important.

Jia Jue replied: "It doesn't have strict requirements on the place where it grows, and it can be planted even in places with bitter cold. It can be planted all year round and grows very fast. Generally speaking, it can be harvested in two or three months after sowing. !"

Generally speaking, it takes 3-4 months for potatoes to mature, but what Jia Jue uses are not ordinary potatoes, but improved varieties.

hiss!

His words made the whole hall gasp.

If what Jia Jue said is true, then this potato is completely against the sky. As long as it has it, the whole world will bid farewell to famine.

"It's nonsense!" Mingji's body trembled slightly, his face blushed, his neck was stuck and he said angrily, "How can there be such crops in the world!"

The basis of their plan with relatives is that the big man lacks food.

But if what Jia Jue said was true, everything would be different. With the crops that would mature in two or three months, how could the big man still be short of food?

If there is no shortage of food, all his plans will fail.

If the skin does not exist, the hair will not be attached!

That's why he questioned Jia Jue so fiercely.

When Liu Sheng heard the words, he immediately echoed:

"Nonsense, if there are such strange things in this world, how can it be your turn to discover them?"

Everyone looked at Jia Jue nervously when they heard the words, their rationality made them doubt the authenticity of this matter, but their feelings made them hope that this matter was true.

Even Zhao Qi looked at Jia Jue nervously and expectantly.

In the eyes of everyone, Jia Jue said loudly:

"I don't know if your Majesty can remember that he once bestowed a thousand acres of fertile land to the humble minister?"

"That's right, it's true. You mean..." Zhao Qi's breathing became more rapid.

Jia Jue smiled lightly: "Your Majesty is right, these fertile fields are all planted with potatoes, and His Majesty will send someone to check and find out."

Zhao Qi was shocked, and immediately said to Chen Jiang: "Chen Aiqing, quickly bring someone to check!"

Chen Jiang quickly complied, and immediately went out of the hall. Several veteran officials who knew about crops also volunteered to follow.

After they left, the hall fell silent instantly, and everyone was anxiously waiting for the result.

There are only two exceptions.

Mingji and Yagyu.

They know that if this matter is confirmed, most of their plans will fail.

They must finalize this matter as soon as possible.

Mingji coughed lightly, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said to Zhao Qi:

"Your Majesty, I wonder if there has been a decision on this marriage?"

Zhao Qi didn't hesitate this time, and immediately said: "We will discuss this matter later!"
