Chapter 241 (2/2)
On the other side, Duan Tingxuan and Su wennuan also sat on the steps. But the two discussed another issue. Su wennuan is more knowledgeable than Chu embroidery and has a better grasp of the mentality of the people, so she won't complain about the local government. What makes her strange is: in her memory, the Northeast Plain is a very famous granary. Why does Duan Tingxuan say that the food here can't even be self-sufficient?
For his wife's question, the little Marquis naturally wants to explain patiently with love, but the problem is: he really doesn't know that the Northeast Plain is a granary.
So he humbly asked: ”Why do you say that? I've never heard that the land here in Northeast China is rich. How can it become a granary? Five or six hundred years ago, the granary in the world was Suzhou and Hangzhou. It was not until Lingnan was finally developed three hundred years ago that the saying” Hu Guang knows the world well ”, but I don't know... When did Liaodong have the saying of northeast granary?”
Su wennuan's footsteps spread all over the north and south of the river. However, this does not mean that she will do well in geography. In fact, she only knows that the three major plains in the Northeast are famous grain producing areas, especially Sanjiang Plain and Songnen Plain, but where should these places refer? What should she do if she gives all her knowledge to her geography teacher?
Seeing that she didn't speak, Duan Tingxuan said in a deep voice: ”In recent years, as most people in the South have changed their land into mulberry trees, the state has collected more and more money every year. However, there is less and less food. The emperor had wanted to force the big landlord families in the south to change mulberry to grow food, but this policy has encountered many obstacles. Later, with the opening of the sea ban, a student who had visited Ryukyu, Luzon and other places the year before last wrote a memorial, It is said that the land there is rich and broad. Because of the sunny and warm weather, the crops can even be triple cooked. The emperor then turned his eyes to the south. Remember last year, I told tingye that he didn't have to worry about spending money? I planned to save enough money and immediately send some capable people to Luzon and Ryukyu to buy a large number of land. You also said that there are many people in those places There are many fruits, many crops, and a kind of rubber, which is particularly powerful. If it can be obtained, it can even promote the development of the whole world in the future. ”
After hearing Duan Tingxuan talk about this, Su wennuan found that since Duan Tingxuan knew her identity, she had unconsciously told the other party so many things he didn't know.
Without any hesitation, he took his husband's hand and whispered, ”you've sobered me up. You know my biggest secret. What else to say? I just don't know the situation in the northeast. I just ask you, do you know the Songhua River?”
”Songhua River? You mean... Duck River? When I was a teenager, I heard my teacher say that there is a Duck River in the far north. It is very wide and big. Although it is not as long as the Dayun River of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, it is also very long. It is the largest river in the north. The locals also call it Songhua River. That's what you said?”
”Yes, that should be it.” Su wennuan was so excited that she tightened her hands holding Duan Tingxuan: ”then you must know Heilongjiang?” thank God, although it was two time and space, the geographical and historical changes were not big, otherwise she would really be confused.
However, her joy was soon quenched by a basin of cold water from the little marquis. The little Marquis asked with an ignorant face: ”Heilongjiang? What's that? Is it the alias of Songhua River?”
”Oh, buy cakes.” Su wennuan pestles her head on her knee, but a word pops up in her mind. She quickly raises her head, grabs Duan Tingxuan and cries, ”do you know that Nuer Gan Du Si? In the territory of immortal women, women really belong to our big seal leader?” (to be continued.)
