Chapter 436, Hybrid Wheat

"Your Majesty, I can't guess!"

Seeing the playful smile of the Empress, Di Ping'an simply surrendered at this moment!

Seeing Di Pingan's aggrieved look at this moment, Brother Yu felt even more amused, but he didn't continue to embarrass Di Pingan, but stood up from the reclining chair and said:

"I have nothing else to do with you this time. It's just that the sweet potato seeds you gave me last time have germinated. I'm here this time to let you see if there is any problem with planting these sweet potatoes!"

Speaking of this, the empress's expression also paused at this moment, and she couldn't help becoming solemn. If the sweet potatoes handed in by Di Ping'an can really achieve such an amazing yield, it will have a huge change in the national strength of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, no one dares to be careless in this regard. After learning the news of the sprouting of sweet potatoes, the Empress did not act rashly. Although Di Pingan had already told him the secret of planting sweet potatoes, knowing it was one thing, but practice was another matter. is one thing,

According to Di Ping'an, the sweet potato seedlings can live if they are inserted casually, but this is a major event related to the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty. If the sweet potatoes are really grown, this will be the real auspiciousness of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, in the eyes of the empress, sweet potatoes are considered auspicious in Datang, but Di Ping'an is definitely a bigger auspicious than sweet potatoes, because Di Ping'an can get sweet potatoes, and if they are not in order, he can get even more amazing things. After all, whether it is tea or instant noodles, they all prove Di Pingan's talent,

"So that's the case. I thought Your Majesty, why are you looking for me? Those sweet potato seedlings can live if you just plant them. Really, I never lie!" Di Pingan immediately patted his chest!

"You should go and take a look with me, you have to see it once before you can rest assured!"

At this moment, the empress was completely unmoved, and made up her mind to meet this sweet potato!

"That's fine, whatever His Majesty tells you to do!"

Di Ping'an wasn't arguing either, if the empress wanted to go see it, then go and see, anyway, he couldn't change the empress's mind!

The empress Shangguan Wan'er and Di Ping'an left the Di mansion immediately. Although the empress and Shangguan Wan'er went out of the palace privately in micro-clothes, they were naturally protected by someone around them. They were all imperial guards in the palace. If the empress visited privately without anyone knowing, the palace might be in chaos in no time.

Naturally, there is a carriage parked outside the clothes. Of course, this carriage is an ordinary carriage. It is impossible to pull Her Majesty's dragon over here. Of course, it is an ordinary carriage, but that is only in comparison. It is much more comfortable than Di Renjie's carriage. Although it is a two-horse carriage, there is still a lot of space inside.

Di Ping'an, the Empress and Shangguan Wan'er sat in, and it wasn't crowded at all.
Moreover, there is a mystery hidden in the carriage. There is a small table with tea on it. It can be said that although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs. In some aspects, especially the handicraft industry, it will definitely surpass the later generations, especially the carpentry work, which is called exquisite!
Last time, Di Pingan handed over a thousand catties of sweet potatoes to the Empress. The Empress took all these sweet potatoes to the Royal Manor for planting, and the Empress also specially ordered that the best fertile land in the Royal Manor should be used for planting. Naturally, the Empress’ orders were not ignored. People dare to be careless, so the growth and development of this sweet potato has been greatly favored!
The Royal Manor is outside Chang'an City, on the banks of the Weishui River, and there are large tracts of fertile land in the north and south of the Weishui River. The Royal Manor is naturally the largest, richest and most advantageous piece of land in the Weishui Plain!
The carriage drove out of Chang'an City, and soon left Chang'an City, walking along the banks of the Weishui River. In April, the willow branches on both sides of the Weishui River have already sprouted, and the two sides of the Weishui River The millions of mu of fertile land beside An is already lush green at this moment!
There are hard-working farmers in the fields everywhere, weeding or dredging rivers or replanting seedlings. All in all, it is definitely a thriving scene!

"Your Majesty, look how attractive the green seedlings are. As long as the rain is in season this year, it will definitely be a good harvest!"

The empress and Shangguan Wan'er sat in the carriage, opened the curtain of the carriage, and saw the millions of acres of green and fertile fields on both sides of the Weishui River, she couldn't help but said happily!

"Yeah, I hope this year will be a good harvest!"

At this moment, the Empress couldn't help answering in a deep voice. In the first year of Tianshou, although the Empress's throne was firmly secured, the crop harvests in various places can only be said to be normal, far below the harvest level.
There are even droughts and floods in many counties and counties. Although this is a scene from time to time, some people will always associate this matter with the knowledge of the female emperor's ascension to the throne and the hen Sichen.

Since the beginning of spring this year, among the memorials from various places, it seems that there have been no particularly serious disasters, which indicates a good start. As long as there is sufficient rain in the next summer and there is no flood or drought, then this year There should be a good harvest!

It's a pity that there are always ignorant people!
Listening to the discussion between the empress and Shangguan Wan'er, Di Ping'an couldn't help but roll his eyes at this moment, and couldn't help complaining in his heart:
[This crop doesn’t look good at first glance. With such a planting density, such a good field is for nothing. If we plant some hybrid wheat and hybrid rice, the yield will not be doubled, and we still depend on the sky for food, and there is no water conservancy at all. Irrigation measures, the conditions of the Weishui plain are so good, build a few reservoirs, store water if there is nothing to do, release water if there is something to do, and then connect the large plain with canals, this million acres of fertile land can truly become a treasure. Now this place is still far away! 】

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is interested. Of course, Di Ping'an didn't say anything at all, but the Empress can't help but listen to her heart!

Build a reservoir on the water of the Weihe River to store water and release water in times of drought, and it can also prevent floods and disasters!
What a brilliant idea!
The female emperor couldn't help being elated for a while, and suddenly lost the mood to look at the green farmland outside.
Moreover, the empress also had a strong interest in the hybrid rice and hybrid wheat that Di Ping'an said.

By the way, isn't the word bastard a curse?
And hybrid rice and hybrid wheat, what does that mean?Could it be said that rice was born not by his father and mother of rice, but by his father of rice and his mother of wheat?
And wheat is not produced by his dad and his mother, but by his father and his mother's rice?
