Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

The land in the village, except for a small part of dry land, is located in the east of the village.

Most of the rest are concentrated in the west of the village.

Shiro, here!

As soon as Zhu Di arrived at his home, someone in the distance waved and shouted.

He is the father of Chunni and Chunxiao.

Su Liuliu.

During the reign of the Yuan Dynasty, most of the names of this group of people born had unique characteristics, and they basically had numbers.

Especially the people at the bottom.

Fourth uncle, fourth aunt, second uncle... you are all here. Zhu Di walked over with a smile.

Fourth Uncle Su grabbed Zhu Di and walked into the fields.

As he walked, he said: You have read a lot and are well-informed. Let's see what kind of grass this is. We have never seen this kind of grass in our many years of working with crops.

No, there are quite a few of them in my field. My uncle plans to hoe them to death, but your sixth aunt won't let them.

My mother-in-law is the same, saying she has to wait and see.

…

Zhu Di stepped on the gap between the muddy wheat fields with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He couldn't help but smile while listening to the villagers talking.

It was only a dozen steps away and we arrived quickly.

The fourth uncle pointed to a seedling that was green after the rain, Silang, that's it. Please help me take a look. What is it?

Suppressing his joy, Zhu Di knelt down and observed carefully.

It's corn seedlings!

Can’t be wrong!

He was observing the growth of the seedlings.

Does it adapt to the Ming Dynasty environment?

At least it seems to be getting used to it now. ♤

Verdant green.

It is as high as the knees, the leaves are already three fingers wide, and they are covered with crystal rain and dew.

Silang, do you know him? Uncle Yang asked.

Zhu Di shook his head slightly, Uncle Eighth, I don't know it either, but this plant is also found in my wheat field.

Silang, are you going to cut it off? the fourth aunt asked quickly.

The villagers all looked at Zhu Di.

After several months of getting along, Zhu Di and Xu Miaoyun have become very influential in Tuqiao Village.

Zhu Di smiled and shook his head: I plan to keep it until autumn to see what seeds it produces.

My guess is that birds and animals ate its seeds in the deep mountains and old forests. When they came to Tuqiao Village, they were not fully digested and excreted into our village fields with their feces.

Birds and animals can eat it, which proves that it is not toxic. Domestic poultry can also be eaten.

We humans can eat it too!

Even birds and animals cannot digest it completely. This proves in disguise that the seeds should be very large, and the yield may be quite large!

…

After he finished speaking seriously, he prepared his reasoning.

Zhu Di looked at everyone with a smile, Uncles and aunts, I suggest that everyone keep this plant.

These few plants will have little impact on the wheat harvest.

It is recorded in the book that all the crops we grow now, such as rice, wheat, and millet, were originally wild and were domesticated by our farmers.

What if this plant is a high-yielding plant?

Anyway, I'm going to keep it.

The uncles and aunts looked at each other and then spoke one after another.

If Shiro wants to keep it, my family will keep it too!

My father, if I had listened to you, we would have plowed up this grass a few days ago and called me a prodigal!

Listen to Shiro. Shiro is right. If you gather a few plants together, it will have no impact on the wheat harvest.

No, what if it's a high-yielding one!

God, please don't play tricks on us farmers, give us a surprise!

…

call!

Secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Zhu Di couldn't help but smile when his eighth aunt began to pray to God for a surprise...

Looking at the faces with a hint of hope for the future, he silently thought in his heart: It will definitely be a surprise!

After chatting for a few more words, everyone dispersed.

Zhu Di hurriedly returned to his wheat field to look for corn seedlings.

He lied about part of what he just said to the folks.

Throughout May, he was busy teaching, going to the mountains to select wood for making brushes, collecting bristles, and making brushes.

New 🅇.🄲🄾🄼

Although I also took the time to see the crops growing.

But just standing on the edge of the field and looking.

I really haven’t paid attention to whether the corn seeds have germinated or how they are growing.

Zhu Di didn't take a few steps before his eyes lit up and he found one!

Not far away, there are seven more scattered.

Looking at the green seedlings, he smiled and said to himself: The villagers are all looking forward to you bringing a little surprise to their hard life.

You should be more careful and gain some energy!

Did you hear that?

In fact, he was a little worried that corn would not be able to adapt to the climate of the Ming Dynasty.

Even though he had never farmed before, he knew that any change in temperature and rainfall would have a great impact on the development and growth of crops.

No, let's see again...

Villagers need a little surprise to spice up their lives. Maybe a little surprise can keep them happy for a whole year.

It's like running a school in a village.

It's been two months, and every time they mention the school, they can't help but smile excitedly on their faces.

Zhu Di took off his shoes three times, and then searched carefully for corn seedlings line by line along the Mailong.

…

78

…

86

…

157

…

283

Zhu Di walked out from the last row of wheat fields, stood on the dividing line between rice fields and wheat fields, and smiled, 300 seeds were planted on this land, and 283 plants sprouted and grew. This is a good sign!

The good germination rate preliminarily proves that corn has adapted well to the climate of the Ming Dynasty.

Now, he is more confident to give the villagers a surprise!

…

In an extremely happy mood, I work well and quickly.

It's approaching noon.

The sun is high.

When the temperature gets hotter and muggier.

Zhu Di has cleared a large area of ​​the rice field.

On the edge of the field, piles of weeds have accumulated.

Shiro, call it a day and go home.

Shiro is so capable. He pulled more grass in one morning than the two of us!

…

At this time, the villagers also finished their work and went home one after another. Passing by Zhu Di's field, they looked at the clean rice fields and the weeds piled neatly on the edges of the fields. Even though they had seen Zhu Di's quick work, they still couldn't help but exclaimed and praised him. .

Zhu Di smiled and said hello, and came out of the field at the same time.

Wash your hands and feet by the ditch.

From the wild grasses, we selected some wild vegetables and wild grasses that Rhubarb, Xiaohei, and Little Idiot liked to eat.

After packing up, chatting with the villagers and going home.

Just entered the yard...

The fragrance hits your nostrils, rushing into your nostrils.

Xu Miaoyun heard the noise and walked to the door to check. When she saw Zhu Di, she immediately smiled: The meal will be ready soon.

Zhu Di added some grass to the manger and asked with a smile: What delicious food are you cooking? Just smelling the fragrance makes my mouth water.

Hearing this, Xu Miaoyun smiled and said, Children are so naughty.

Didn't we go to the lotus pond to practice calligraphy?

When they have free time to practice calligraphy and take a break, they make cages to catch fish.

…

When school is over, everyone feeds me the fish they caught.

…

I made steamed fish with lotus leaves.

Zhu Di smiled and walked over and entered the house.

Xu Miaoyun prepared the towels and soap locusts, turned to the stove with a smile, and asked at the same time: Are the crops growing well?

Okay! Zhu Di said with a happy smile while washing up: As expected, this year will definitely be a good harvest year. By the way, I also have a good thing to share...
