Chapter 605 Excited Zhu Youxiao
Looking at Han Dong who bowed and apologized to him, Yang Feng shook his head helplessly. Han Dong was known as a capable minister in later history books, but he could not escape the idea of using literature to control martial arts in his bones. He was born with suspicion and suppression of warriors. However, this is also due to the limitations of the times. No matter how capable Yang Feng has, he cannot change it.
After looking at Han Dong deeply, Yang Feng said: "Her Ge Lao, although this marquis formed the Jiangning Army, the original intention of establishing it was to eliminate external troubles for His Majesty and fight against the rebellious officials for the Ming Dynasty. He never thought of using it to do anything wrong.
Since the establishment of the Jiangning Army, this marquis led a large army to fight east and west, destroy the thief chief Nurhaci, relying on the Mongolian tribes to pacify Zheng Zhilong of the South China Sea, and even the Red-haired Yi people have fought several times. Lord Han is the second auxiliary of the cabinet, so he should do his best to share his worries and reward good and punish evil. Why are there now the Qing Tartars outside the Ming Dynasty staring at our Ming Dynasty and the bandits are causing chaos inside, and Lord I still can't wait to destroy a battle army that has made great contributions to the country?"
Han Yu's face turned purple. Yang Feng's words almost pointed at his nose and called him jealous of his jealousy. The Ming Dynasty version of Qin Qi was the most insult to a literary man.
"Here, come, this guy is here again..."
The officials in the hall heard Yang Feng and Han Du fighting each other, and many people were very excited.
They had known Yang Feng's power for a long time, and no official in the capital knew that Yang Feng's "notoriousness" was outside. Huang Liji and Gu Bingqian were the lessons of the past. Now they saw another person who dared to fight Yang Feng. These people who watched the fun were almost "climbed" together. They all widened their eyes. They all wanted to know how Han Dong responded to Yang Feng's insulting words.
However, everyone's wishes were destined to not be fulfilled. Seeing Han Yu's body swaying like a willow in the wind, Zhu Youxiao, who was afraid that Han Yu would vomit blood and fall to the ground and die on the spot in the next moment, quickly smoothed out: "Okay, Yang Aiqing, Master Han Ge is also out of public aspirations. How can you treat him as diligent? You really think that you are Yue Wumu!"
Seeing Zhu Youxiao's blaming eyes, Yang Feng was also very aggrieved, "Your Majesty, I did nothing. I just wiped out pirates like Zheng Zhilong and others. I rushed to the capital to report good news to Your Majesty. Who would have thought that as soon as I came to Korea, Lord Han attacked me?
Although there was a clear instruction in ancient times, the birds were full of bows and the rabbits were dead and the dogs were cooked, but now the rabbits were not dead yet. Lord Han wanted to kill the dogs. Even the clay man who was crushed with clay would get angry."
Listening to Yang Feng's defense, Zhu Youxiao almost laughed out loud, waved his hand at Yang Feng and said, "Okay, okay, what a mess? Who said he wanted to dismiss you? You can step down first."
"Yes!" Yang Feng responded, but he still stood there and bowed to Zhu Youxiao and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report to Your Majesty before I retreat."
"Oh... Is there anything else to report to you?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Yang Feng curiously.
"Your Majesty is like this." Yang Feng cleared his throat and said seriously: "I realized that Taiwan is really a rare treasure land after destroying Zheng Zhilong and recovering the Bon Port he occupied.
Although the land that can be cultivated is only about 20%, its soil is fertile and warm and moist, so it can end vegetables, fruits and other crops. More importantly, it also produces a lot of rice, two to three ripe a year, with good rice quality and high yields. If our Ming Dynasty can occupy Taiwan, Taiwan can become a granary in our Ming Dynasty.”
"Oh...is something happened?"
As soon as Yang Feng said something, not only Zhu Youxiao, but also the officials in the hall were moved.
China has been a civilized agricultural society since ancient times. Even the old farmers in the country understand that food is the most important thing for the people, let alone these officials in the court. For Chinese officials, how to make the people under their rule have food to eat is the most urgent thing.
Although China has a vast territory, there are actually not many lands suitable for cultivation. Needless to say, the north is the cold climate there. Before Yangfeng introduced high-yield crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and other high-yield crops into the Ming Dynasty, there were not many types of grains suitable for cultivation there, and they were usually only cooked once a year, so the food there was generally not enough food.
As for the south, although it is much better than the north. You can plant crops such as rice, but at best it is only ripe for two a year. Now I heard Yang Feng say that Taiwan can plant rice three a year, many people's eyes are straightened. They know too well what this means, which means that the grain output there is one third higher than that in the south.
Ignoring everyone who was surprised, Yang Feng released another bombshell, "Your Majesty, sir, there is something even more amazing. In Luzon Island, south of Taiwan, it is even more amazing. Not only are there rich minerals, but all the land there can be planted with rice, and they are all ripe for three ripe a year. If I can occupy it, there will be no worries about the Ming Dynasty's food in the next hundred years!"
"What...is this happening?"
"Yang Aiqing, is it really that way?"
Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao almost jumped up.
What are the most worried about by rulers in all dynasties?
The rulers were worried about only one thing, that is, the people had no food to eat, and the people would rebel if they had no food to eat. The people would not be able to sit steadily once they rebel. The rulers of all dynasties were most concerned about food. As long as the people had food to eat, they would not be able to make trouble. This was no exception even in the 21st century.
Haven't you seen that later businessmen racked their brains to make money, such as "garlic, you are cruel", "jiang, you are a soldier", "dou, you are a playboy", but there is nothing they dare not stir-fry in the market, but there is only one thing they absolutely dare not move, that is food.
Because everyone knows these people. If anyone dares to think about this thing, the court will really dare to kill people. Even if you have a huge backstage, I won’t say the reason.
Now, when Zhu Youxiao heard that there was a place where the grain was cooked three times a year. As long as it occupied this place, there would be no need to worry about the grain within a hundred years of the Ming Dynasty. This definitely hit his heart.
Zhu Youxiao grabbed the armrest of the dragon chaise tightly and stared at Yang Feng and said tremblingly: "Yang Aiqing, this matter is serious. Don't deceive me!"
Yang Feng said seriously: "Your Majesty, this matter is related to the country and country of the Ming Dynasty. Even if I have the courage to do so, I will never dare to deceive the emperor."
"Is there really such a magical place in this world?" Zhu Youxiao murmured twice, and his face began to turn red slowly. "If the Ming Dynasty could stand these places, then..."
