Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 556 Gu Lin Arrives in Beijing

At this moment, Gu Yan was in the general's mansion.

He looked solemn, knelt on his knees, kowtowed respectfully to Tong Zhenzhou and Mo Yao, and said: "Grandson Gu Yan greets grandpa and grandmother, please accept Yan'er's greetings!"

Seeing this, Mo Yao quickly reached out and helped him up.

When she saw the handsome grandson in front of her, she couldn't help but think of her daughter who had suffered misfortune at a very young age, and tears immediately burst out of her eyes like a dam breaking.

When Gu Yan looked up at his grandmother's kind face, he instantly understood why Zheng Kunhuai had doubted his identity at first sight.

It turned out that he and his grandmother looked exactly like they were carved from the same mold.

It was the coldest month of winter, and the weather in mid-December was extremely cold, but this did not affect the itinerary of Gu Lin's merchant ship at all.

After sailing for a period of time, the merchant ship finally arrived at the port of Jingu.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, several low-key and simple carriages galloped towards Shangjing like arrows.

At the city gate of Shangjing, Gu Yan had been waiting for a long time with the Minister of Revenue Yan Yousheng.

The cold wind made the two men's clothes rustle, but their eyes were always fixed on the end of the road in the distance.

Yan Yousheng was looking forward to the arrival of the important person his boss mentioned.

"My dear brother, can the two things you mentioned before really have such a high output?" Yan Yousheng secretly inquired about the news, and finally couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked Gu Yan for confirmation again.

Gu Yan smiled and nodded, responding: "Brother Yan, don't worry, what I said is true. These two things have been widely planted in overseas countries for many years, and their per-acre yield is indeed quite high.

I have read some miscellaneous notes before and found relevant records, which confirm that this matter did happen. "

Hearing this, Yan Yousheng's eyes lit up instantly, and he asked anxiously, "Is there a clear record in the book?"

Gu Yan nodded and continued, "According to the book, the highest yield per mu can reach more than 2000 hu (shi)!"

"What?" Lord Yan couldn't help but exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

He had only received instructions from his superiors to come and greet someone together with Gu Yan. He never expected to hear such a shocking thing here.

With the current grain yield of more than 60 hu per mu, how could he not be shocked to hear that this new crop could produce more than 2000 hu per mu?

Yan Yousheng had known Gu Yan for some time and knew that he was not the kind of person who spoke nonsense.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think to himself, no wonder the Shangshu sent him to meet this person, it seems that this matter is indeed very important.

However, he could almost conclude that even the Shangshu might not be aware of the specific situation. Otherwise, he would not be the one standing here waiting.

Gu Yan continued, "Next, we may have to trouble the Ministry of Revenue to ask people to look for the seeds of these two crops among the people."

Yan Yousheng was shocked. "Could it be that our Great Qi also has this kind of crop?"

Gu Yan shook his head and nodded. In fact, the people he sent out had already found some crops in some areas, but he couldn't say it. He only said, "Our Great Qi is vast and rich in resources. It's not surprising to have such crops. It's just that people didn't know that they were edible before."

After listening to Gu Yan's words, Yan Yousheng felt that they made sense.
