I was engaged in infrastructure construction in the Han Dynasty [Transmigration Book]

Lu Xuan fixedly looked at Liu Tan whose cheeks were flushed and his eyes were shining brightly. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw Liu Tan. He touched his nose and said, "I... suddenly thought of a good way, so I lost my composure for a while."

Lu Xuan asked curiously: "It must be a very useful way to make His Highness so happy?"

Liu Tan nodded and said, "Yes, it's just that it's hard to say whether this method will work, and Xiao Kunmi has to help me keep it secret first."

Lu Xuan blinked and said, "But I don't know what His Highness's method is."

"Grafting." Liu Tan told him the answer happily.

However, even after listening to Lu Xuan, he still didn't understand. He looked at Liu Tan in confusion and repeated: "Grafting?"

Liu Tan nodded, and when he saw that Lu Xuan didn't understand, he struggled for a while and said, "It is to graft the grape seedlings from the Western Regions to the grape seedlings from the Central Plains, so that both of them can live well."

Lu Xuan's eyes widened after hearing this: "This...how is this possible?"

Liu Tan would not be able to explain it to him for a while, so he said, "Well, it may not be successful, let's try it first."

While talking, he said to Miao Rui: "Go and tell Li Xi to find grape seedlings that are strong enough for us, and then leave them to me...Leave three grape seedlings, I will use them for experiments."

Miao Rui bowed in response, turned around and went out of the palace to tell Li Xi.

Lu Xuan said with emotion: "If this can be done, it will be no less than a miraculous reappearance."

Liu Tan laughed: "This is not a miracle, this is science."

However, Lu Xuan didn't quite understand the meaning of these two words, and Liu Tan didn't explain too much. In this era, it's normal to think of miracles when encountering things that you don't understand. Even Liu Che can't avoid it. How can you force it? Can this little Kunmi understand?

However, this one is a little different from Liu Che, mainly because Xiao Kunmi is still young, instilling enough scientific thinking in him may allow him to better understand the nature of the world, Liu Che... Forget it, the three views have been formed and are firm It's gone.

When Liu Tan was thinking about this, Lu Xuan said regretfully: "No matter what it is, it's a pity that I can't witness such a grand event with my own eyes."

Liu Tan didn't think about hiding it, anyway, it's just a technology, if it can be successful, it still needs to be promoted, but he quickly realized that if it is tossing in the palace, it seems that it is indeed not suitable for Lu Xuan to enter palace.

In fact, Liu Tan doesn't really want to do it in the palace. Although he also did grafting outside of class, he can't say whether it will be successful.

If it's in the palace, it's fine if others find out, but if Liu Fuling finds out, something might happen.

Liu Tan suddenly remembered that Miao Rui and the others had said that they had a Zhuangzi, which seemed to be given to him by Chen Ajiao. He turned to look at Fu Yu and asked, "Is my Zhuangzi far from the imperial city?"

Fu Yu said: "The Zhuangzi in the hands of the lady is naturally in a good position, very close to the imperial city."

Liu Tan said happily: "Then find time later and let's go and have a look."

After finishing speaking, he said to Lu Xuan: "If it's suitable there, I will carry out the grafting there, and you can come and play when the time comes."

Lu Xuan responded very simply: "Okay!"

Seeing that it was late, Xu Shi felt reluctant, but Lu Xuan got up to leave.

After Liu Tan sent him away, he went into the study and tried to recall the remaining knowledge of grafting in his mind.

He sat in front of the desk and tried to think back, remembering that the main factor for the success of the grafting technique is the affinity of the two plants. In Liu Tan's understanding, this affinity means that the closer their relationship is, the easier it is to succeed.

Liu Tan thought about it for a while. Although the distance between the regions is too far and the grape varieties are very different, they are still a family anyway, so there should be no problem, right?

Liu Tan wrote out the attention points of grafting while thinking about it. After he finished writing, he felt that this thing could not be seen by others. There were only a few lines on a piece of paper, and the writing was relatively general. Ask him why he did this, how does he answer?Do you want to answer that he doesn't know?

Liu Tan folded the paper and put it in a small box, and decided to let him do it himself, and just find two stern-talking and dexterous people to do it for him, so as not to encounter a hundred thousand whys.

Li Xi's hands and feet arrived quickly, and five days later, Li Buyan came to Liu Tan and told him that he had found what he wanted.

But Li Buyan didn't say he was dead, but said: "These kinds are very similar to the flowers and leaves of grapes from the Western Regions, so Dad ordered people to find them all."

At that time, Liu Tan had just finished his physical education class, and his mind was full of doubts about life. He didn't understand why he had to work hard to develop morality, intelligence, physique, art, and labor after time-traveling. Couldn't he just be an otaku quietly?

Then the facts told him, no, he still has to get those grapes.

Liu Tan just dragged his heavy body and followed Li Buyan to Li's house.

Li Xi took all those plants to his home, fearing that others would know that Liu Tan was helping him. It would be fine if he succeeded, but if he failed...he was worried about affecting Liu Tan's reputation.

Today's Li family is very different from before. I don't know if it is Liu Tan's illusion, as if there is a feeling of depression and decay from the door.

After entering the inner courtyard, it is even more different from before. Probably because of the loss of the title, the whole house has shrunk a lot, but the population has not decreased, so Liu Tan always feels that the house is a bit crowded.

Walking all the way to the side courtyard, Liu Tan was taken aback as soon as he stepped in - the yard was full of shelves, and all kinds of plants were wrapped around the shelves.

Liu Tan actually doesn't know the appearance of grape branches and leaves, but he can guess it.

After seeing Liu Tan, Li Xi immediately saluted and said, "See Your Highness, everything your Highness wants is here."

Liu Tan widened his eyes and said, "This...how did you get so many?"

Li Xi said: "According to the identification, there are dozens of kinds of grape leaves, flowers and fruits that the common people see every day, and some of them are in the deep mountains. I have sent people to look for them. If they are easier to get, let's get them first." Come."

Liu Tan asked curiously, "Someone breeds this? What is it used for?"

Li Xi replied: "It can be used as medicine or mixed fruit vinegar."

Liu Tan understood it. He looked around and found that the ones Li Xi chose should be older. Liu Tan said before that he must be strong enough, so naturally the longer the idea, the stronger he will be.

Li Xi introduced the types of these grapes while he was watching, and Liu Tan nodded seriously while listening.

However #一个不知道怎么做，在线waiting，very urgent#

Fortunately, Li Xi is not his teacher, so he will not ask him any questions. After he finished speaking, Liu Tan waved his hand and said, "Transplant everything to my Zhuangzi first."

Li Xi also made people take action without saying a word.

Liu Tan did not participate in the transplanting process, but told Li Xi to come to him after the grapes had fully adapted to the climate in his village.

It took half a month in a flash, and half a month later, Liu Tan set foot on the manor under his name for the first time.

After going out from the palace in a bullock cart, you can see many villages near Chang'an. I have to say that it is around the capital after all, and the population is very dense.

However, this situation changed after about half an hour. The population gradually became scarce, and then it became a large area of ​​farmland. Although there were people working in the farmland, there were not many people, and there were no houses in sight. , Occasionally there are one or two thatched cottages.

This situation didn't last long before he saw a very obvious rammed earth wall.

Fu Yu explained in a low voice beside him: "Your Highness, just go in from here."

Liu Tan lifted his spirits, thinking that this Zhuangzi was not too close after sitting in the bullock cart for more than an hour.

But thinking about it again, it is obvious that the speed of the road and the car is slow. No matter how fast the ox cart is, it is not as fast as the horse-drawn cart, but there is one advantage that the horse-drawn cart cannot compare to, that is, it is stable enough.

This kind of stability is very precious when the road is not smooth enough.

In this way, not everyone can ride an ox cart. You must know that cattle are an important production material at the moment, and most people are not willing to let an ox cart.

Anyway, no matter what, it's all the fault of the road, and he must fix this broken road when he has the chance!

As for how to fix it... wait until he gets the grapes done first.

After all, if the road is not repaired, people will not die, but if the grapes cannot be grown... I am afraid that people will really die.

Li Xi may not die, but the people under him are not so lucky.

Liu Tan was thinking about what was there, but after a while, he suddenly recalled—it had been a long time since they entered that rammed earth wall, why haven't they arrived yet?

In order not to show his ignorance, he refrained from asking, and this forbearance lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour.

After a quarter of an hour passed, he finally saw a stretch of buildings, because it could be regarded as the relationship between the royal courtyard, this building was much neater and more elegant than the previous private houses.

Liu Tan was already very moved when he first moved into the Suiyu Palace. He used to live in either a dormitory or an [-]-square-meter ordinary private house. At his age, it is considered pretty good to have his own [-]-square-meter house. .

Sui Yu Dian does not know how many times the size of his house, and now this manor, which is only the main body, occupies three or four times the area of ​​Sui Yu Dian, not to mention that there are large tracts of land in Zhuangzi.

Liu Tan felt like he was a bumpkin, but in order not to reveal the fact that he was a bumpkin, he had to try his best to pretend to be calm and try not to look around.

Now he finally understood why Lu Xuan didn't think it was precious enough to send him such a big golden horse, this Zhuangzi was probably more precious than that golden horse.

Liu Tan got off the ox cart and got on the shoulders again. He didn't have time to visit his own garden and was carried directly to the place where the grapes were grown.

When he got there, he saw that the lush grape seedlings looked drooping at this moment, and he asked with some concern, "Why do they look so drooping?"

Li Xi explained next to him: "Transplanting already consumes energy, and now that the weather is getting colder, it's also the season for leaves to fall."

Li Xi said that he wanted to sigh here. These are the strong grape seedlings transplanted within Chang'an. It's not easy for those grape seedlings brought from the Western Regions to survive to Chang'an. Growth is almost impossible.

Liu Tan was relieved after hearing this, but Li Xi also reminded him at the same time - winter is coming soon.

Whether it is grafting or growing, it can only be carried out in spring, and the current weather is really not suitable.

So he asked: "Is there a time limit for the emperor?"

After hearing this, Li Xi was even more bitter: "Your Majesty wants to see these grapes ripen next autumn."

Even surviving is a problem now, and he is still mature!

Liu Tan: ...

Then it may be too late to start again in spring.

However, this kind of difficulty is still not difficult for Liu Tan, the traverser. Since the temperature is not suitable, it is better to build a greenhouse.
