Fu Huang: Husband, here is a ginseng
Chapter 224 Spring
This time, the emperor sent eunuch Wang to deliver the imperial edict, and the person who escorted eunuch Wang was Murong Fu.
Gao Zhijun taught practical classes to military doctors in the morning and made her pills in the afternoon.
Huo Jinzhou and his team arrived in Liangzhou and parted ways with Sun Tielong. They told him to quit his job and wait for them here.
Huo Jinzhou led Qinglong and the others into the mountains and walked for two days before they found the place where sweet potatoes and cassava were grown.
After getting off the carriage, he took Qinglong and the villagers to start digging sweet potatoes and cassava.
The seedlings were ready to be transplanted, and Gao Zhijun hired people from Taizhou to help.
This was the busy season and all the people came to help.
People here only grow rice once a year, in late May or June.
Gao Zhijun plans to plant two seasons, planting now and another season in June.
Although the people of Taizhou were curious about why the miracle doctor was growing rice now, they chose not to ask. They knew that the miracle doctor must have her reasons for doing so.
Of course, Minister Liu was also puzzled, so he chose to ask.
"Zhijun, shouldn't rice be planted in June? Why are you planting it now?"
"Grandpa, I plan to plant it for two seasons to see if I can grow it and what its harvest is. If it can be grown and the harvest is good, I can promote it so that people can grow more food to feed their families."
Gao Zhijun just told Minister Liu that she was just fooling around to see if there would be any results.
After listening to this, Minister Liu also thought that his granddaughter's idea was a good one. Anyway, the fertile land was empty, so he might as well give it a try. If successful, the people of Daliang could grow two crops of rice.
"Okay, Zhijun is a smart person who is brave enough to try. If she succeeds, Grandpa will definitely ask the emperor for a reward."
Minister Liu assured Gao Zhijun.
"Grandpa, no need! If it succeeds, the people will have an extra season's supply of food to feed their families, and they won't have to starve."
Gao Zhijun said.
"Zhijun, whether you want it or not, grandpa will ask the emperor for a reward. This is what you deserve."
Minister Liu said affirmatively.
The Emperor cannot always take advantage of his granddaughter. If she succeeds, she must ask the Emperor for gold and silver.
"Okay! As long as Grandpa likes it. We won't know the result until three months later, and we can talk about the reward then."
Anyway, we have to wait three months for the results, so it’s too early to say anything now.
However, she was very confident that the early rice harvest would be good. In her previous life, farmers planted double-season rice, and in some places even planted triple-season rice, and the harvests were all good.
It took the people of Taizhou half a month to plant the rice, and Gao Zhijun paid them off with all the silver.
It was almost the time for the Spring Examination and Murong Shuo had already returned to the capital.
Gao Zhijun thought of the instant noodles in her previous life, which were suitable for students taking part in the spring examination.
She wrote down a recipe and asked Qingshuang to make instant noodles according to the steps.
Judging from the date, my eldest brother and his friends should be back from digging sweet potatoes.
Sure enough, the next day, Qinglong led everyone to bring back ten carts of sweet potatoes and sweet potato seedlings, cassava, and cassava seedlings.
Gao Zhijun immediately asked the villagers to plant the sweet potato seedlings.
Before leaving, Gao Zhijun asked them to wrap the sweet potato seedlings with soil and water them from time to time on the way back.
So even after walking for more than ten days, the sweet potato seedlings did not wilt.
Cassava seedlings are branches of cassava, which can be directly inserted into the ground.
Cassava is very simple to grow and does not require much care. After planting, wait for about 300 days, which is the time for the Chinese New Year, and then you can dig up the cassava.
Because at this time, the cassava is ripe, has more starch, and tastes good.
Sweet potatoes and cassava were given to the villagers of Huojia Village to plant. Gao Zhijun planted the sweet potatoes on wasteland. She wanted to grow sweet potato seedlings so that she could grow more sweet potatoes.
Minister Liu, Minister of Agriculture Ma Yuli, and Murong Yuanbo were very curious about sweet potatoes.
Gao Zhijun steamed two kilograms of sweet potatoes for them to try.
The Huo family tried it, but they were reluctant to eat it. Therefore, the two kilograms of sweet potatoes were only given to the Ministry of Revenue personnel brought by Minister Liu, Murong Yuanbo, and Liu Ningchu to try.
After eating the sweet potatoes, everyone praised them highly.
Gao Zhijun told them about the yield of sweet potatoes and various ways of eating them, which made them even more shocked and excited.
On the day of the Spring Examination, Gao Zhijun, Hong Qiujue, Huo Jinzhou, and Huo Zhiyuan sent Huo Jinqian to the Imperial Academy to take the exam.
This time the exam will last for nine days, with three sessions in total, each lasting three days.
In addition to dry food and instant noodles prepared for Huo Jinqian, Gao Zhijun also prepared a life-extending pill and a bottle of cooling oil that could be applied in case of dizziness and nausea.
After sending Huo Jinqian to the tribute hall, Gao Zhijun took everyone back to the hospital.
"Miss, Eunuch Wang is here to deliver the imperial edict again!"
When Canglang saw Gao Zhijun, he hurried over to tell her.
Imperial edict? What is the emperor going to send?
Gao Zhijun thought with a confused look on her face, wondering what the emperor would give her at this time. Could it be gold, silver or jewelry? I can take this.
When Hong Qiujue heard that it was an imperial edict, she quickly took Gao Zhijun and ran in, with Huo Zhiyuan and Huo Jinzhou following behind.
"Eunuch Wang, what reward did the emperor give to your servant this time?"
When Gao Zhijun came in, she saw Minister Liu and Murong Yuanbo talking to Eunuch Wang, and Gao Zhijun greeted them.
"Hello, Lady County! Congratulations, Lady County, I am here again thanks to your blessing."
When Eunuch Wang saw Gao Zhijun, he immediately congratulated her.
"Eunuch Wang, what is there to be happy about?"
Gao Zhijun asked Eunuch Wang with a strange look on her face. It seemed that she had not done anything to deserve the emperor's reward.
"The curved plow sent by the county lady is a great blessing for the people. The emperor will naturally reward it."
Eunuch Wang said.
It turned out to be Quyuanli. She saw that her grandfather and the others came without bringing any rewards from the emperor, and thought that the emperor would not give any rewards. She did not expect that the emperor would wait until now to send the rewards.
