Zhu Xiongying opened his eyes, sat up, pretended to want to leave, and said,"I have nothing to say? Then I'm leaving?"

Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the hoe and walked to the edge of the chair, then inserted the hoe into the chair. In the nearby loose soil, he said:"Xiongying, what do you think I want to plant here?"

Zhu Xiongying saw Zhu Yuanzhang also sitting down, stretched out his hand to pour him a cup of tea, and said:"Grow food for the world."

Zhu Yuanzhang held it. As soon as he lifted the tea cup to his mouth, he heard Zhu Xiongying's words, put it down again, and asked:"What is the food of the world?"

Zhu Xiongying replied:"Old man, you know that I came here to dig the ground when I came back today, isn't it? Do you want to talk about Xinjiang Province?"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was obviously stunned and asked:"What Xinjiang Province?"

"The area I just conquered is our new territory, named Xinjiang Province. Zhu

Yuanzhang then came to his senses and said,"The name is not bad, but you know Grandpa Huang, why did you rebel back then?"

Zhu Xiongying replied:"You want to eat, why don't you just wait to starve to death?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said,"Yes." Otherwise, we can only wait to starve to death. He picked up the teacup he had just put down and said:"Just talk about the Xinjiang province you mentioned. Let's set it up. If they don't have enough to eat, they will still rebel." And the road there is far away. If there is any abnormal movement, it will take a long time for military support. Isn't this putting the lives of our Ming soldiers at risk? Zhu

Xiongying took out the"instructions" for potatoes and corn and said,"God gave me two new crops. This is an introduction." After saying that , he handed over a memorial in his hand.

Zhu Yuanzhang took it and read it carefully.

After reading it, he said in disbelief:"What is this called... Potatoes, can they really produce ten stones per hour?" Can corn also reach eight stones? Zhu

Xiongying thought for a moment and said:"This is a relatively conservative estimate. If the fertilizer can keep up, it will definitely be more than this."

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised and said:"Is this still a conservative estimate?" We have fertilizer! Zhu

Xiongying shook his head:"It's not the kind of fertilizer you mentioned, it's something called chemical fertilizer."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked:"What is that?" Zhu

Xiongying shook his head and said,"Don't think about that for now. Let's solve the population problem first.""

Zhu Xiongying considered many issues on his way back.

With modern chemical fertilizers, the grain production can definitely be increased, but if he goes to exchange it, he really can't afford it. If he doesn't exchange it, given the current situation of the Ming Dynasty, Industrial level, no, there is no industrial level in the Ming Dynasty now. We cannot build a pressure vessel alone. Therefore, there is still a long way to go to make fertilizer.

With the current population, As long as you are full and don't consider the taste problem, you can definitely be satisfied with the high yields of potatoes and corn alone. Let's go back to the grassland. It can be said that it is indeed a vast land with sparsely populated areas, so now , if you want to achieve stable rule over the grassland, population is a more important issue.

Zhu Xiongying spoke his thoughts to Zhu Yuanzhang unhurriedly.

Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said:" Hero, aren’t we working on immigration now? Zhu

Xiongying was stunned for a moment and asked:"Where to immigrate?"

Zhu Yuanzhang replied:"You don't know this?""

Looking at Zhu Xiongying's blank look, which was not pretending, Zhu Yuanzhang continued:"The oppression of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, coupled with the years of war, the north is basically depopulated, but Shanxi is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it has been for many years. The weather was good, and during the war years, most of the refugees hid there. However, the output of this land was always limited. There was no one to cultivate the large areas of land in the north, and they were all crowded in Shanxi. If there was a famine, it would not be good for Shanxi either. Good thing, so we have already asked them to move north. After hearing this

, Zhu Xiongying sat up straight, extended a thumbs up to Zhu Yuanzhang, and said,"Thumbs up to Grandpa Huang!""

Withdrawing his hand, he continued:"That would be better. Let them move further to the grassland. I originally wanted to let the Mongolians who surrendered in the Northern Yuan Dynasty go back to develop, but the risk is still relatively high. If I can It would be better if more Han people moved there. Mongolians and Han people would be among us, and I would be among you. The chance of civil unrest based on race would be much smaller. Zhu

Yuanzhang sighed lightly and said,"Look, my eldest grandson also said this is a good thing, but those people don't appreciate our kindness!"

Zhu Xiongying asked:"The people are unwilling to move?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said:"I was willing at first, but as time went on, fewer and fewer people were willing to move!""

Zhu Xiongying said:"People have traveled hundreds of thousands of miles, and in the past they had to start from scratch. Unless they had no property in their place of origin, no one would be willing to move. This is understandable, just give them enough temptation!

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a straight face:"We are born with mud legs, how can we still know this?" We pay them travel expenses, send troops to protect their safety, allow them to settle in the land for their own use, and exempt them from taxes for three years. This is not enough! After hearing this

, Zhu Xiongying held the tea bowl and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he said:"I think the problem is that the people are not rushing forward!" Grandpa Huang, the people you moved here are either military or civilian villages. Am I right?

Zhu Yuanzhang said:"Yes, this is our Ming Dynasty's system!" Zhu

Xiongying put down the tea bowl in his hand and said in a loud voice:"This system must be changed!""
