Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Hou Fangyu and Fang Yizhi were arranged to wait in the waiting room.

    They thought that Zhao Han was discussing the military, after all, he was about to go on a personal conquest, but they didn't know that Zhao Han was enjoying Chinese cabbage.

    Chen Xisong put two cabbages on the table. After being stored in the cellar for the winter, the outer leaves had withered and turned yellow.  He pointed to two Chinese cabbages and said: "Your Majesty, this cabbage comes from Beizhili. The seeds were brought to the south by Datong scholars. The locals call it 'Baoxinbai'. This cabbage comes from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The locals call it  The 'yellow sprouts'."

    Zhao Han asked doubtfully, "Isn't Chinese cabbage widely grown in the north?"

    Chen Xisong explained: "It has been planted, but it does not have a core, and it will rot after several frosts. This kind of 'core white' Chinese cabbage has a high yield and is much more cold-resistant."

    Zhao Han pointed to the yellow sprouts from Jiangsu and Zhejiang: "How is it different from this cabbage?"

    Chen Xisong said: "The taste of yellow sprouts is better, but the yield of Baoxinbai is higher, and it is not so picky when planting."

    "Then promote Baoxinbai!" Zhao Han immediately made a decision.

    It is not so picky, and the output is still high, which can be promoted on a large scale.  As for the yellow sprouts with better taste, they can be planted on a small scale and counted as a kind of cabbage exclusively for the rich.

    "Yes!" Chen Xisong cupped his hands.

    Zhao Han said happily: "Prepare more seeds and write a planting booklet. I will ask the Ministry of Households to distribute it to the governors of all states and counties to promote it. Even the Home of the Small People, let them eat cabbage every day in winter! By the way  , The Institute for Encouraging Farmers will be changed to the Institute for Encouraging Farmers, temporarily under the jurisdiction of Qintian Academy. I will give you a doctorate title, and those experts in farming under your command can be awarded master's and bachelor's degrees. I will give you three master's places and ten bachelor's places.  Assign it yourself!"

    "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chen Xisong said happily.

    The Hanlin Academy and the Qintian Academy now have only two doctors, one is Qian Qianyi, the other is Xiao Shixuan, and someone like Chen Xisong has become the third doctor.

    Zhao Han said again: "Keep these two cabbages and cook them for the imperial chef."

    In ancient China, there was cabbage, but it belonged to small cabbage, the kind used to make prunes in the south.  It was called "Sicai" in ancient times, because it can survive the winter and has the character of pine trees.

    During the Tang and Song dynasties, cabbage was hybridized with manjing (kohlrabi, cabbage head) in the north, and several new cabbages were born.  One of them is called tripe siung, which belongs to the ancestor of loose-leaf cabbage, and was renamed Chinese cabbage in the Yuan Dynasty.

    About a few decades ago, stuffed cabbage, called yellow sprouts, appeared in Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions.  The taste is excellent, the price is expensive, and the planting and maintenance are troublesome.

    Just in recent years, Baoxinbai, the real Chinese cabbage, appeared in Beizhili!

    However, due to the war, Chinese cabbage is still limited to some prefectures and counties in Hebei, and it has not been able to be promoted to other provinces¡ªnaturally, it cannot be spread to North Korea.

    Hou Fangyu followed Fang Yizhi into the room, and the two bowed to each other: "My lord."

    Zhao Han said, "Sit down."

    After Hou Fangyu sat down, he immediately saw the two Chinese cabbages.  It's hard not to see it, because it's on Zhao Han's desk, lying between him and Zhao Han.

    Seeing Hou Fangyu's surprised expression, Zhao Han said with a smile: "This kind of cabbage is a good thing. It is easy to grow and has a high yield. Moreover, it is tightly packed, which is good for storing in the cellar for the winter. As long as it is popularized, Shengdou Xiaomin will also grow in the cold winter months."  You can eat delicious vegetables."

    Hou Fangyu was in awe, and quickly got up and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty cares about all people, and you are a true benevolent king!"

    Zhao Han waved his hand and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

    "Your Majesty, the generals under Zuo Liangyu's command are extremely complicated," Hou Fangyu said straight to the point, "Zuo Liangyu can't decide which side to surrender to. Apart from waiting for a price, it is more likely that he cannot restrain the troops.  Some generals want to take refuge in Beijing, and some generals want to take refuge in Nanjing. No matter which side Zuo Liangyu takes refuge in, there will be chaos in his department!"

    Zhao Han nodded and said, "I know that."

    Not only did Zhao Han know about it, but he had already contacted Zuo Liangyu's generals.

    The situation in Shandong is particularly complicated. For example, in the Denglai area, there was a small warlord named Huang Fei.  After Mao Wenlong was killed, Huang Long took over as the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, while Huang Fei was Huang Long's nephew and inherited Huang Long's position and surname.

    When Huang Fei was serving as the commander-in-chief of Denglai, he happened to meet the Tartars who plundered Shandong, and was beaten to the point of losing troops and generals.  Later, he encountered the Caomin uprising in Shandong. In the process of destroying the rebel army, his strength recovered slightly.

    Today, Huang Fei nominally hangs out with Zuo Liangyu, but actually dominates the Shandong Peninsula.

    Once Zuo Liangyu took refuge in the Qing Dynasty, Huang Fei would definitely leave his ministry.  Even Huang Fei has already made an appointment with Zhao Han's emissary to send troops together to attack Zuo Liangyu??, the whole family was killed as spies.

    There are also a small number of people who did not settle down in Beijing, absconded into temples, and became monks and priests.

    At this moment, Beijing civil servants have a lot of money.

    They also seem to think that braids are ugly, not only they are ugly, but everyone else is ugly together.  Therefore, in conjunction with Shangshu, it is required that all the people in the outer cities of Beijing must shave their hair off.

    Hou Fangyu said again: "Your Majesty, although Henan is occupied by the Manchus, many gentry still turn their hearts to the south. As long as Your Majesty sends troops, Henan will surely raise troops to help His Majesty kill the Tartars!"

    "Very well, you should also go out with the army, and you will soon be attacking your hometown, Guide Mansion." Zhao Han said with a smile.

    Hou Fangyu said: "Your Majesty, as long as the Datong army marches into Guide Mansion, Wansheng is willing to send back to his hometown to recruit volunteers to fight against the Qing Dynasty!"

    (Tomorrow three more, today is gone.)
