Chapter 360: Let's go to Tongzhou

Zhu Yunmo stared at Zhou Heng with wide eyes, nodded vigorously, and finally bit her two more times, her mouth full of stuff.

He gave Zhou Heng a thumbs up, and Zhou Heng ignored him and took a bite. The skin was crisp enough, and the salty, spicy and fragrant.

However, there is no most important seasoning here - cumin. I instantly feel that this steamed bun has lost its soul.

"tasty?"

Several people around him nodded with Zhu Yunmo, "Is this a steamed bun? Why is it so delicious when it is roasted?"

Facing Zhu Yunmo's question, Zhou Heng could not answer for a moment, but seeing that Zhou Heng stopped eating, he took the bamboo stick left by Zhou Heng and quickly stuffed it into his mouth. After all, the rest would have to wait for a long time.

"Why don't you eat it?"

Zhou Heng sighed, "There is no seasoning here. If there is that kind of seasoning, this barbecue will be perfect."

Everyone asked in unison:

“What seasoning?”

Zhou Heng thought for a while and said, "The cumin is a bit like fennel, but it is smaller than fennel and has a fragrant taste. Just a little bit will make the barbecue a lot."

Zhu Yunmo blinked, "Where is this thing produced?"

Zhou Heng knew that the location of Xinjiang was not the territory of Daliang Kingdom, and it was occupied by Tatars. However, this thing was sold in India and Iran, so he blinked his eyes.

"See if there are any foreign merchants afterwards. Please pay attention to it. If they have any special seasonings to sell, you can search it. I remember that some tributes were not presented in Fujian before. I don't know if there are any. If there are any, we can plant them ourselves."

Speaking of eating, there is nothing trivial about Zhu Yunmo. After all, Zhou Heng's face is full of the importance of this seasoning. You must know that his mouth is already difficult to serve.

This is even more difficult to serve Zhou Heng. He said that delicious food is naturally an invincible taste.

"Okay, I'll go to the palace and bring some gold potatoes and corn to the emperor's grandmother, and I'll just ask."

Zhou Heng smiled, "The prince can ask, the rubber tree we mentioned before, and those merchants have no news, so we can't wait. If this one has, people can find it. Such trees grow in pieces. If it is found, we will send people to harvest the rubber and then boil it. In this way, whether it is various tubes or prosthetics, this is something we urgently need."

Zhu Yunmo wiped his hands and nodded quickly. He knew the importance of this rubber tree.

"Carry it up, find a few baskets, put them in gold potatoes and corn, I'll give some to the emperor's grandmother. Remember to tie flowers with red silk to make them beautiful. By the way, don't tear the skins outside the corn, so that it will be tasteless when cooked."

After saying this, Lai Fu quickly arranged it, and several bamboo baskets with patterns were sent over. Each type was filled with five baskets, and ten baskets of things were quickly loaded into the car. Zhu Yunmo patted the dust on his body and looked at the sky.

"Don't you go to the palace with me?"

Zhou Heng shook his head, "We go together, even if we take credit, this matter is not suitable for a big fan. You go and send some fresh goods. This is a filial piety to the empress dowager. Even if the emperor asks, he can't say anything. Brother and the others have started loading the car. I'll still watch it and arrange for someone to follow them later."

Zhu Yunmo thought about it and then felt relieved. What Zhou Heng said made sense. If they all went, this matter would be done in business.

Just giving some to the empress dowager, so that the palace can know about this, it is not a big fanfare, so that it will be easier to do it later.

"Okay, I can't help you load the car, I'll leave first."

Zhu Yunmo did not delay and left as soon as he left. As soon as he left, Liu Renli came over and Zhou Heng handed him a bunch of baked potatoes directly.

"Food some food to cushion first, will you leave now?"

Liu Renli nodded, "Chunlao is under control very well and the land has been turned over. As long as Laifu and the others are ready, we can set off at any time."

Zhou Heng glanced at Lai Fu, and Lai Fu quickly gave gifts to Zhou Heng and Liu Renli. This kid is thinner and darker now. He looks like a little old man, but he is much more calm.

"Sir, we are ready here. We are all from the village. We can set off after eating. The carriages and horses and things have been loaded."

Zhou Heng took a photo of Boss Xue who was still eating, and he hurriedly followed him.

"What's wrong?"

Zhou Heng signaled Boss Xue to pay the money.

"Give Lai Fu some money. So many people have gone there and the cost of food and drink is not small. You can't let the elder brother bear it. His salary is too small."

Liu Renli wanted to refuse, but Boss Xue had already taken out his purse. All of them were ready to be realized, so he quickly gave it to Lai Fu.

"You count, there are 200 taels here."

Lai Fu was stunned, "I can't use so much, right?"

Zhou Heng shook his head, "It's not like going to Tongzhou, you should bring more. Even bran and bean cakes need to be purchased on site. You also need to create some tools for local people to learn to use. I think the small machine you sow is good."

Lai Fu smiled, "I asked Yao Blacksmith to make six of this, and four of them were prepared for the rolling roller plows for the ground. I felt that it was enough. Just prepare some sheep manure at that time."

Zhou Heng waved his hand quickly, "Okay, then prepare to set off, bring some baked food, don't go hungry on the way, if you have anything to do, send people back at any time. Achang is in charge of the North Mountain for the time being. It will take about ten days to harvest the gold potatoes and corn on the earth. The people in the village have experience, so Achang will arrange it."

Everyone said that Liu Renli held Zhou Heng's hand and arranged it so thoroughly that Liu Renli was so moved that he couldn't speak and patted Zhou Heng's shoulder hard.

"Don't worry, I will take these people away and take good care of them. Within ten days, we will start sowing seeds."

Zhou Heng nodded vigorously, "Then I'm waiting for good news for my brother, and I hope Tongzhou will have a bumper harvest this fall."

Liu Renli nodded vigorously, Lai Fu approached Zhou Heng and said in a low voice:

"Young Master, there is another thing. Although we know that the yield of gold potatoes and corn is high, we didn't expect it to be so high. Just now, we loaded all the good quality and thrown all the bad or injured ones down. We also loaded dozens of cars. After the planting in Tongzhou, if we agree to buy it, how should we set the price?"

Zhou Heng thought about it and found that at this time, wheat is only 500 cents per stone, so potatoes and corn cannot be higher than this price. This way, it can be promoted faster.

"One stone of gold potatoes and corn is tentatively set to be 200 cents. Even at this price, one acre is the worst, and it is much more than before."

Lai Fu calculated, "The average yield of one acre of experimental fields is 18 shi. Even if the yield of ordinary land is reduced, ten shi is absolutely fine. In this way, acre of land will be at least twice the original fertile land. I think it's OK."

Liu Renli listened to the conversation between Lai Fu and Zhou Heng with real knowledge. The price of these two foods is so low that he lit up his eyes. In this way, wouldn’t the people have more surplus?

"I think the price is fair. In this way, there is no need to promote it next year, and we are all rushing to plant it."

Zhou Heng burst into laughter. He knew what Liu Renli was worried about, and this was to relieve his worries.

"Brother, don't worry, if you have a planting plant here, you will have a large gentry family coming to inquire. You will naturally have no worries about selling the things you plant. Besides, if you can't sell them, I will accept them all. Can you leave this time with confidence?"

Liu Renli nodded and waved his hand behind him.

"Let's go to Tongzhou."

With such a shout, everyone who was still eating quickly carried the baked food away. Even Liu Renli was carrying a basket containing roasted potatoes, roasted corn, roasted steamed bun slices, Zhou Heng had a black thread, and this bandit was entering the city, sweeping them all.

Seeing everyone getting on the bus, the convoy extended from the foot of the mountain to the hillside, which was very spectacular. Of course, many of them were flatbed trucks from farmers' houses in the village, with bags piled up like mountains.

Waving his hand at them, Liu Renli and the others left.

Looking at the empty hillside, the greenhouse was already free at this time. Zhou Heng turned around and left-behind Old Man Yang came over.

"Young master, don't worry, I will take someone to clean up the place tomorrow."
