Liu Tao brought back three bags of corn seeds. Zhou Chong asked someone to cultivate a field next to Nanyang Town, and then planted one of the bags of corn. The remaining two bags were of other use. In addition, Zhou Chong hired the town.

Several old farmers with experience in farming asked them to take care of the growth of corn. The weather is hot now, and it is time to sow corn. You should be able to harvest in autumn.

As for the half-dead sweet potatoes, Zhou Zhong paid more attention. He opened up another piece of land next to the field where the peppers were planted in the garden, and then transplanted all the sweet potatoes with his own hands. He then breathed a sigh of relief after watering them.

The growth of several sweet potatoes is not very good, but Zhou Chong is not worried about whether they can survive, because sweet potatoes are very cheap. As long as they are a little soil and watery, they can grow, and they don't need too much.

Care can be said to be a thing with extremely strong vitality, so as long as you plant it, Zhou Chong will know that they will definitely survive.

"My husband, what are you planting? Is it the same as chili pepper?" At this time, Wang Jinxuan, Jianer and Bai Mengwan walked into the garden. Seeing Zhou Chong's sweaty look, he felt very distressed. He took out a handkerchief and gave it to Zhou.

As she wiped the sweat, she asked. Seeing the intimate look of the couple, Cheonger just smiled knowingly, but Bai Mengwan beside her couldn't help but look dark, and her eyes also showed a look of envy.

After Wang Jinxuan finished sweating on himself, Zhou Chong smiled and said, "Jinxuan, you guessed it well. The thing I planted is called sweet potatoes. Like chili peppers, they all come from faraway America, but sweet potatoes are different from chili peppers. I am not

I don’t plan to control the sweet potatoes in my own hands. When I have the chance in the future, I will promote the sweet potatoes. The more people I grow, the better!”

Seeing Zhou Chong's excited look, Jianer couldn't help but speak, "Brother, look at your happy look, can't this sweet potato be like chili, a very delicious condiment?"

"Hahaha~. Sweet potatoes are actually not delicious. At most, they are a kind of food that can make a living, but they are very important. Even in my heart, the chili peppers next to them cannot be compared with sweet potatoes!"

He said with a big laugh, in comparison, chili is a cash crop that can bring a lot of money to himself, but sweet potatoes are a life-saving crop. I wonder how many people will survive because of sweet potatoes in the future?

Hearing that Zhou Chong valued the inconspicuous sweet potatoes in front of him, Wang Jinxuan thought for a while and said with a smile: "Since my husband said these sweet potatoes are so important, it's better to give them to us to take care of them. After all, my husband, you every day

So busy, I don’t have time to fiddle with these things.”

Zhou Chong heard Wang Jinxuan take the initiative to take care of sweet potatoes, and he wanted to speak out that it was not necessary. After all, sweet potatoes have strong vitality and do not need too much care. However, when the words came to his mouth, he stopped and changed his words: "Okay, that's good."

.These sweet potatoes are of great importance, and only if you take care of Jinxuan yourself can I feel at ease!"

The reason why Zhou Chong changed his words was because he thought that Wang Jinxuan and Cheyeow could only move in the inner house, which was really boring. Since that was the case, it would be better to find something for them to do. The first batch of peppers have been harvested, and they can only harvest them in autumn.

The second batch, so now it can be used to take care of sweet potatoes during this period.

Thinking of this, in order to increase the sense of honor of Wang Jinxuan and others when taking care of sweet potatoes, Zhou Chong explained the yield of sweet potatoes in detail, such as not being afraid of disasters, and then told them that if they can promote sweet potatoes in the future, then for all the people in the world,

It's a great thing. I don't know how many people will survive because of sweet potatoes in the future, so they must take good care of sweet potatoes, and countless people will definitely remember their achievements in the future.

Zhou Chong didn't know that what he said to Wang Jinxuan today would come true. In the future, countless people will survive because of sweet potatoes, and people have not forgotten to take care of the first batch of sweet potatoes and grow up with the three daughters of Wang Jinxuan.

In the future, the three of them were regarded as the incarnation of Bodhisattvas by the people of the Central Plains, and there were temples worshipping the three of them everywhere in the Central Plains. However, although Wang Jinxuan and the other three were admired by the people because of the sweet potatoes, they were the first to bring sweet potatoes in.

Zhou Chong was chosen to be forgotten by most people because people's attention was attracted by other aspects of Zhou Chong.

Sure enough, hearing that sweet potatoes are related to the livelihood of all people in the future, which made Wang Jinxuan’s three girls not only admire Zhou Chong, but also felt that their current tasks were much heavier. They also looked at the sweet potato seedlings with their eyes.

After being a little solemn, Wang Jinxuan even spoke up and said that Zhou Chong was relieved that they would take care of these sweet potatoes in the future as if they were taking care of their children.

After relocating these sweet potatoes, Zhou Chong called Liu Tao and others to India to inquire about some of the situation along the way from them, and also focused on the city of Malacca. According to the original historical development, Portugal will be next year.

The second attack on Malacca, and this time, unlike the last small fight, they sent more than a dozen ships and thousands of soldiers. This was almost all the Portuguese military force in Southeast Asia, and this time they finally

After success, the important transportation route connecting the East and West of Malacca City finally fell into the hands of the Portuguese, which also marked the fall of sea power in the Central Plains.

Since Zhou Chong participated in the smuggling, he has been considering the Portuguese invasion of Southeast Asia. He cannot let it fall into the Portuguese's hands in any way, so he is concerned about the situation in Malacca City.

And Portugal's strength is particularly careful. He even plans to bring people to help Malacca City next year. Although his strength is not very strong, it should be able to repel Portugal's attack with the local forces in Malacca City. In addition, he also has

An immature idea, if you can borrow troops from other places, let alone repel the Portuguese, it will not be difficult to annihilate all Portuguese forces in one fell swoop.

In addition to Malacca City, the Portuguese military forces in India and other places were also the focus of Zhou Chong's attention. Although Liu Tao and the others knew a little, in contrast, European craftsmen who moved from Portugal to Chilava must know.

There are more, so Zhou Chong sometimes often chats with people like Chilava, wanting to learn more about the Portuguese.

Speaking of which, after the European craftsmen of Chirava moved to Nanyang Town, they caused trouble for Zhou Chong a lot. First of all, their hygiene habits were problematic. Not taking a bath was just one thing, and on the other hand, they didn't even concentrate on using the toilet.

Habits, whenever you feel, you will solve the problem anywhere. The morning toilet bowls are directly on the road. As a result, the area where they live is soon stinking, and urine and defecation can be seen everywhere on the streets, and in the yard they live in

There is even no place to stay.

In this case, other residents in Nanyang Town are also full of resentment. After all, the roads in the town are public, and everyone has to walk from it. But now if you are not careful, you will be caught, which will naturally attract many people.

Some people were even dissatisfied with the Europeans behind their backs, and some even clamored to drive them out.

As a result, the incident ended up in Zhou Chong, which made him smile bitterly for a while. At that moment, he first communicated with Father John and then asked him to come forward to persuade the European craftsmen of Chirava, but the effect was not very obvious.

It was so soft that Zhou Chong made a ruthless decision and asked someone to issue a law to prohibit everyone from urinating or defecating anywhere. At the same time, it also stipulated that the toilet buckets in the houses of residents in the town should be handed over to Ye Xianglang for treatment, otherwise they would not only be fined, but also seriously

Maybe he will be beaten.

Zhou Chong's tough attitude finally worked. After those Europeans were punished several times, several people even beaten the board in public by the Jinyiwei because of repeated teachings. Now the European craftsmen finally became honest and began to go to the town.

Other residents also abide by the town's regulations and the sanitation conditions have been greatly improved.

Of course, although Zhou Chong can use a tough attitude to prevent European craftsmen from urinating and defecating everywhere, he cannot forcefully regulate them to take a bath. Therefore, although the public health conditions have been improved, the personal hygiene of these people has not been greatly improved.

This has caused many people who work with European craftsmen to complain.

Fortunately, Miss Xila, a girl, has been moved by Zhou Chong. Within two days after she arrived at Shuangyu Port, she convinced her father Chilava and her mother Helen to become the first among these Europeans

She changed her bad habits of not taking a bath, and she also admired Central Plains culture very much. She not only actively learned Chinese with Father John, but also liked to wear clothes of Ming women. She also began to learn from other people in the town in terms of customs and habits.

At the beginning, the original residents of Nanyang Town were not very used to Miss Qianla, but they soon discovered that among the newly moved Flangji people, Miss Qianla was the only two priests.

Besides, the only person who doesn't smell bad, and has no bad habits of other Europeans. In addition, she is very smart, so she quickly learned to learn some simple Chinese and greet everyone, which made Miss Qianla slowly become a town.

On the most popular European immigrants.

It was also influenced by Miss Sila that other European immigrants began to slowly change. For example, Miss Sila's mother Helen, who is also a woman, was also influenced by her daughter and finally took a shower one day.

As a result, Chilava was the only one left in the family. In the end, he could not withstand the persuasion of his wife and daughter and became the third person among immigrants to take a bath. Moreover, the transformation of their family has led to more European immigrants.

The original concept of hygiene was also shaken.

Thinking of the European immigrants who were slowly assimilated by residents of Nanyang Town, Zhou Chong couldn't help but smile. At the same time, he decided to go to Chilava's family to learn about the situation of the Portuguese in India and other places. After all, they were the first batch.
