In this era, Wang Zhi was one of the few pioneers in the Ming Dynasty who opened his eyes to see the world. He was at least very good at settle accounts. As long as the court officially allowed the ban on sea bans, he could get back the money if he gave him any money!

However, Qian Yuan was not grateful and sneered: "Fifty thousand taels? Hundred thousand taels? Two hundred thousand taels?"

"This is a treasure pot. Be careful of a eunuch, and you will be beaten millions of taels!"

"At that time, will you give it or not?"

Wang Zhi was shocked and knew that this might become a fact... Not only scholars and civil servants, but ordinary people also had no good impression of eunuchs.

As an eunuch, there seems to be no other hope in life except to make money.

Millions of taels... Wang Zhi couldn't take so much. By then, if he offended the eunuch, he would have to go back to Japan. Maybe the Japanese riots would resurface and the business would be in vain.

Qian Yuan coughed twice, "Tan Qizhi took a long time to go south this time. In addition to the grain, he also transported some other goods back... they were all on Zhoushan?"

"On Zhoushan, Wang saw it in person the day before yesterday." Wang turned his head and looked at Xu Bixi.

"Stacked in the warehouse, one greeting, you can arrive in Hangzhou within ten days." Xu Bixi nodded, "Mr. Qian, those goods..."

"This matter must not be disclosed." Qian Yuan emphasized: "Whether the business can last long depends on whether this batch of goods can win His Majesty's favor."

Wang Zhi immediately turned around and looked at Mao Haifeng with warning. Xu Bixi and Mr. Fang were both cautious people, but Mao Haifeng had a relatively big mouth.

"Don't worry, adoptive father..." Mao Haifeng said evidently before he reacted, "What is that batch of goods?"

"If you don't know, don't ask!" Wang Zhi scolded and turned around and said, "By the way, the good thing that sir left on the island, I brought it here this time... It happened that Mr. Longquan is here too."

The seeds of these crops, including sunflowers, tomatoes, corn, peppers, green beans, Qian Yuan, were all delivered by Qian Hong twice and are now being planted and cultivated in Pengxi Town.

Qian Yuan glanced at his father and asked casually: "How to plant it?"

Qian Rui didn't dare to say much, and simply replied: "Buried in the soil and water it."

Wang Zhi, who also went to the field in his youth, couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Fang said this... Let's talk about it later."

“The yard behind is big, so plant a batch first.”

"Qian also has a yard in the house in the county town. I will ask the teacher for advice at that time."

Qian Yuan still hoped that his father could find an excuse to reunite with his mother as soon as possible, but Qian Rui was worried and turned his head and looked at Wang Zhi without saying anything.

"Okay, but Mr. Fang is a scholar. Lord Qian wants to hire him... but he has to spend money." Wang Zhi smiled and joked, pointing to the two boxes he carried in, "Longquan Gong, are these strange flowers and fruits sent from Nanyang, come and have a look?"

Qian Yuan was interested and squatted down to open the box. A smell immediately came to his nose.

"Why is it so smelly!"

"It's all rotten!"

"Didn't people put ice on the road?"

"I dragged it for more than ten days, and the cabin is stuffy and the ice is not useful."

Wang Zhi was getting angry at Xu Bixi and others. Qian Yuan covered his nose and stepped forward, picking up a knife.

Well, there are mangoes and pineapples, all tropical fruits, no wonder they rot so quickly.

He turned around and asked Wang Zhi to search for it, but he didn't know if there was durian. Qian Yuan couldn't stand the smell, so Xiaoqi liked it.

Wang Zhi pulled his face and scolded Xu Bixi, and then asked someone to carry a box in. He opened it in person before lifting the lid, and smiled and said, "This is no problem... Please come and have a look at it. Is this the crop with extremely high yield per mu mentioned last time?"

Oh, the sweet potatoes were finally brought. Qian Yuan's eyes lit up and he could eat roasted sweet potatoes tonight!

But when he walked over and took a closer look, it was not sweet potatoes, but potatoes!

Qian Yuan was both happy and speechless. Potatoes are fun, with high yield per mu and drought-resistant. They can be used as staple food and vegetables. They are also buried in the soil. They are quite similar to sweet potatoes.

"The fleet brought back from Luzon Island is said to have extremely high yield per mu, and can be planted in the mountains." Wang Zhi said proudly: "The Westerners did not confiscate them even after checking and brought back three big boxes."

"It's not this thing." Qian Yuan picked up the potatoes and weighed them. It was much smaller than the potatoes in the vegetable market in his previous life. "If it weren't for Luzon, I would look for them in other places in Southeast Asia. It must have been brought by Westerners."

"no?"

"Yeah." Qian Yuan waved to Liang Sheng, "Welcome back to carry this box... the owner of the Wufeng ship is not unwilling to agree, right?"

"Uh..." Wang Zhi whispered: "Duke Longquan knows what this is?"

"Potato." Qian Yuan thought for a long time before he came up with the nickname of potato, "Eat it like taro, go back and study it."

Anyway, there was a guard carrying a box, so Qian Yuan simply pointed at the hall and the courtyard, "Take this with you, and that... Mr. Fang, how do you eat this?"

"It's golden... I put it in the pot and boil it in water?"

"Mr. Fang has left seeds anyway, bring more and more."

Take a look, spicy and sour potato shredded potatoes, stir-fried green beans, pine nuts and corn, and tomato and egg soup... It's simple and will definitely satisfy Xiaoqi. Maybe it can unlock a few new cheeses!

Qian Yuan's eyes were shining, and he pulled Wang Zhi and said, "How long will it take to return from Nanyang?"

"It's hard to say, it depends on the direction of the wind and what kind of ship it is, not to mention that the Southeast Asian country is also big."

"Just those fruits, I'll send them as soon as possible next time. There are some species with thorns on the outside... like chestnuts, so big... Go and ask, there are bananas and lychees..."

"Donald Longquan is going to send it to the palace?" Wang Zhiwei said: "I'm afraid it's too late."

"Just kidding, this thing is sent to the palace, Your Majesty is so happy... The eunuchs of the Imperial Food Prison are not allowed to hang themselves!"

“What I said is, what I said is.”

"When Qian studies and studies, I will invite you to the banquet... There are brothers Mao, brothers Xu, by the way, Lao Tan... Uh, I can't forget Mr. Fang, I want to ask Mr. Fang for help."

Qian Rui originally thought that his son was just a show, but looking at the joy in this guy's eyes... he was speechless. The son who had never helped him fall out of the soy sauce bottle back then is now a killer and a foodie.

The guard was already carrying a few boxes to the carriage, and Qian Yuan was about to rush back, and pulled Wang Zhi and explained: "Two things, one of the batch of goods in Zhoushan is hidden, which is the key to whether the trade matter can be settled in the court."

"Don't worry, Mr. Longquan." Wang Zhi whispered: "It's all carefully selected, absolutely no problem."

"That's good, secondly, that thing...sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes... anyway, hurry up, no matter whether you buy, steal or rob."

"This may have to wait..."

"Qian doesn't care." Qian Yuan shrugged, "But if he could send it as soon as possible, he would give it to more than 10,000 civilians in the name of Wufeng, and let them take it home to try..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Longquan, Wang must do his best!" Wang Zhi immediately made up his mind.

This is a very simple truth. Although the sea trade is strong, for ordinary farmers who dig food in the fields, how much food is produced is the most important thing.

In this case, if Wang Zhi promotes sweet potatoes, a crop with high yield per mu, not to mention anything else, at least his reputation among the people will inevitably have a substantial improvement.

"If there is anything else, go find Tang Jingchuan... and leave, don't send it."
