Chapter 2287 The Next Year, the Vast Land Will Be Revealed

"Xiao Yi, according to the yield estimate, this year's seeds should not be 600,000 or 700,000 mu, but should be doubled."

Lu Huaishen was eating corn. Li Yi didn't give him the corn he had chosen. It was too old and not suitable for him to eat. He had to eat tender corn like a child.

"The bad ones should be selected. The corn after planting is for seed. We eat the selected ones. You all said that last year's steamed bread was delicious."

Li Yi explained that seeds are not equal to yield.

An ear of corn can be big or small. The size of the ear itself is a choice, and the size of the corn kernels is another choice.

If you say that you plant one mu of corn and produce 400 kilograms per mu, you can plant 80 mu with 5 kilograms of seeds per mu when you plant it again.

How is it possible? Planting like this will ensure that some mu will not even produce 200 kilograms.

"It's a pity." Li Rizhi also wanted to double the yield continuously according to the ideal state.

"There are also potatoes and sweet potatoes, which require land.

In Guanzhong and Henan, choose the best land to plant them.

Add new varieties of rice, wheat, sorghum, soybeans and other crops cultivated by Sinong Temple.

In two years, the people of the Tang Dynasty will not starve to death."

Li Yi planted corn for Xiaolan and Princess Yongmu respectively, and finally chose an old ear for himself.

The starvation he said does not mean starvation due to lack of food, but refers to long-term hunger, getting thinner and thinner, and finally dying.

At present, he only considers ensuring the basic guarantee of fat, protein, vitamins and carbohydrates for the people.

That is, there is meat, vegetables and rice, even wild vegetables are fine, wild vegetables have more fiber.

The disadvantage of wild vegetables is that the yield is not as high as that of cultivated vegetables, otherwise why do people grow vegetables?

"Li Lang, this one I eat is sweet." Princess Yongmu had corn kernel skin stuck on her teeth, but she didn't know it.

Li Yi pretended not to see it: "In the afternoon, we will go out and sell roasted corn kernels, string them into strings, ten in a string. Tell the people how delicious this thing is, which will be helpful for promotion in the future."

This time, Li Yi sent people to deliver ten tons of green corn, most of which were given to the people in Luoyang Village, and a small part was sold.

Green corn has husks and cobs, not mature corn kernels with a certain moisture content. The yield per mu refers to the latter.

At present, it is most suitable to cut silage a few days earlier, and all can be used, including corn stalks.

Now after breaking the cobs, it can also be used, but it has more fiber and less nutrition.

After fermentation, ruminant livestock likes to eat it the most.

"How much is a string?" Princess Yongmu was happy that she could sell things again.

"You discuss with Xiaolan, remember to limit the purchase, and rich people are allowed to increase the price to buy more, just like roasting sweet potatoes."

Li Yi didn't eat a bite, he just liked the feeling of sharing corn after boiling it.

It doesn't matter whether you eat it or not, just like when Li Longji gave him winter cucumbers, he took a look and knew, give it to the farmers.

Then in the winter of the second year, cucumbers from Li's farm were put on the market in large quantities.

Princess Yongmu took Xiaolan to study, how much to sell? Not considering labor costs, it would be expensive if you consider this.

As soon as they left, the expressions of the ministers became serious.

"Can we still spare enough budget and troops to target Silla and Bohai this year?"

Su Yan asked directly, don't care if I am the prime minister, you Li Yi must answer.

Because you can let me join the group, but I can't let you in.

Li Yi motioned for everyone to sit down: "This year, I originally focused on overseas trade, and the Northeast region was a gradual and progressive approach.

Something happened suddenly, so we first considered the political layout, and we have a chance.

Da Wuyi is ambitious, and I left medicine for Da Zuorong. As long as he carries it with him, Da Wuyi will not be able to take power unless something unexpected happens.

Da Wenyi is a hostage in the Tang Dynasty, and I have always arranged for people to teach him how to govern the country.

He understands the Tang Dynasty and has some knowledge of me. He is the candidate in my mind to replace Da Zuorong."

Li Yi talked about the politics of national strategy and supported people who are beneficial to him.

Da Wuyi is ambitious and has serious right-leaning.

Serious right-leaning is actually very good, as long as you show it, I will have an excuse to fight you.

But Li Yi doesn't want to fight. The best way is to discuss the strategy, the next best is to attack the diplomacy, the next best is to attack the troops, and the worst is to attack the city.

It is not convenient to use troops in the Northeast, especially in winter, where there are many mountains and dense forests.

If you want to fight, it is best to use sea transportation, but if the opponent retreats, it will be disgusting to trade space for time.

That's why the Beidaying didn't resist and was easily occupied, and the guerrillas behind enemy lines forced the Japanese pirates to impose various restrictions and create no-man's land.

The former was caused by human factors, not that the local army was unwilling to resist, they just followed orders.

The latter was an objective situation, and the Japanese pirates had to do that.

Dawenyi has been learning in the Tang Dynasty, and the more he learns, the more he knows how powerful the Tang Dynasty is.

Li Yi doesn't know whether Da Zuorong can die this year, anyway, he has given him the medicine.

It's best if he doesn't die. If he does, put Dawenyi back and send someone to protect him.

It's okay for brothers to fight, and internal friction is good for the Tang Dynasty.

"Brother Yi has a long-term plan, and I feel at ease."

Li Longji was in a good mood, and the enemy didn't move before he made a plan.

As for how to know that Da Zuorong will get into trouble this year, don't ask it anymore!

Look at the people in the group, how many were pulled back from the gates of hell by Brother Yi.

Liu Youqiu, Li Rizhi, Liu Chong, Lu Huaishen, Yin Sizhen.

Yao Chong didn't know, it was true that Yao Chong's eldest son almost died.

The same thing happened to Wei Zhigu who stayed in Chang'an.

Oh, Longze, as soon as he arrived in Chang'an, Yidi stared at him.

That year, there was a slight disturbance, a headache, and Li Yi was more nervous than others.

Zhu Xie Jinshan was just a little bit away from saying that Brother Yi had changed the Book of Life and Death, and everyone believed it.

In other words, this year, Dae Jo-yeong of Bohai...

I hope he will take the medicine given by Brother Yi with him, and don't show off. If you sneeze, shed tears, or have a runny nose, just take it when you need to.

"Third brother, you are too kind. It is all thanks to the merits of the whole court. I am just playing the supporting role and waving the flag."

Li Yi hurriedly said modestly, don't praise me, do I need to praise me?

'Beep beep, beep beep...' A short sound sounded.

Xiao Lan quickly picked up the walkie-talkie on her waist and answered it.

"Princess, they are digging here. We are catching people. If one shows his head, we will seal his mouth first, then pull him up, and then the other will come up again."

"I am Xiaolan. I am next to Princess Yongmu and Li Lang. I will continue to catch people."

"Understood! The ground team has passed by. We will ensure that no one escapes. All tunnels are under surveillance."

"Okay, the idea is safe. You can kill directly. Li Lang!"

After Xiaolan finished speaking, she looked at Li Yi. The tunnel over there was dug through.

"In the afternoon, we will sell grilled corn skewers at the door of Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion. Catching people in the tunnel is just like digging a hole in the ice to catch fish in winter. It is very convenient."

Li Yi said to others, chatting casually.

"Let's go together. It's upstairs. I don't eat this corn anymore. I will rub off the corn kernels and roast them."

Yao Chong looked at the position on the corn cob that he had bitten and decided to go and watch the fun.

"Okay! It's lunchtime, we all have to eat. What food should we send to the people today? It's right in front of Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion.

To be honest, I haven't been there yet. It's a good time to take a stroll. Brother, do you want to go?"

Li Yi's face didn't show anger.

"Of course I will go. I want to see what kind of courage can make some people dig up Wen Tian Lan Xiang Pavilion."

Li Longji had a smile on his face. He was wondering, why dare you touch Yuan Yuan when you can touch anyone else.

My eldest daughter, Brother Yi's fiancée.

What else are you afraid of? Don't you want to think about the consequences?
