No matter what type of alliance these three people are, even if they are plastic flower sisters in later generations, at least one goal is the same at this moment, which is to gain fame.

Whatever a man can achieve, a woman can do the same.

Since a daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan has received a title, who can say that there will not be another one?

If Zhen Mi gains fame, she will be able to get rid of the fetters of Jizhou and become independent. If Xin Xianying gains fame, she will have better choices and a freer direction. This is especially true for Wang Shu, who will be able to stay at home.

More voice and freedom.

So with the same goal in mind, the atmosphere between the three of them was naturally very warm. Within a short time, they seemed to be as close as sisters to each other, and they were extremely harmonious.

After the foreplay atmosphere reaches a certain level, it’s natural to get down to business.

The three of them showed their true nature.

Of course, the main person to guide is still Zhen Mi.

Zhen Mi clapped her hands, and the maid, who looked like a little rabbit, presented an extremely exquisite wooden box...

"This is..." Xin Xianying was a little curious and her eyes followed the wooden box.

Zhen Mi smiled, but did not hand the wooden box to Xin Xianying, but gave it to Wang Shu, "Madam Wang, do you recognize this thing?"

Wang Shu shook it gently first, listened to the sound, and then slowly opened the wooden box. What came into view was hard, long... some dried stems, and a bag of seeds.

There are also some dried vegetable leaves...

Wang Shu was quite familiar with crops. He frowned slightly, took out the stalks and seeds, looked at them for a moment, and said, "It looks like beams..."

"If I live in the fields, I will get ten thousand at a year. I will take the old ones and feed my farmers. It has been a long time since ancient times. Now it is suitable for southern acres, either tilling or tilling. Millet, millet, grass, grass and grass, you are here and there, and I am a fashionable scholar...

..." Zhen Mi said with a smile, "Madam Wang has indeed experienced people... Now that the weather is abnormal and the spring is cold, there will be droughts in summer and autumn... It may not be easy to grow wheat and millet, but millet is drought-resistant... If...

』

The history of planting sorghum in China dates back to the Western Zhou Dynasty, but because sorghum was a crop, it did not receive people's attention for a long time. It was not until the Song Dynasty that people began to plant sorghum on a large scale after discovering its strong adaptability.

It only took more than a hundred years for cultivation to become popular throughout China.

Many farmers, no matter what kind of plants they mainly grow, will plant some sorghum in the fields or even under the eaves and walls, because the demand for sorghum is really too little. As long as there is sunlight and a small amount of water, it can grow. Of course, there are also

There is a more drought-resistant plant, corn, but now corn is simply not available in China.

Before the arrival of the Little Ice Age in the Han Dynasty, the climate was warm and humid, so rice, wheat and beans, which yielded more per mu, were naturally the focus of planting, and in terms of taste, rice, wheat and beans were better. Sorghum was eaten as rough rice.

It was not popular as a food crop, so it was abandoned aside and few people cared about it. Now that Zhen Mi deliberately took out this seed, she obviously had some thought.

"Hi..." Wang Shu put the wooden box down, with some disappointment on his face. "This matter... Hussar has already arranged it... I saw a large amount of sorghum seeds being prepared at the beginning of the year... If this is the only thing, I'm afraid...

yes……"

Zhen Mi's smile remained unchanged and she said: "This beam is not that beam... This is sweet rice... Its stem is very sweet..."

"What? Sweet?" Wang Shu was stunned for a moment.

Zhen Mi stretched out her hand slightly, indicating that Wang Shu could try it herself.

Sorghum originally existed in China, but the place of origin of sweet sorghum is not China.

"This thing is the product of body poison, and it traveled to Jizhou..." Zhen Mi said, "When I was young, I liked sweet food very much, but maltose was always rare. After I accidentally got this thing, I used it instead...

…』

As soon as Zhen Mi said this, not to mention Wang Shu, even Xin Xianying on the side couldn't help it. She pinched a dry stalk and bit it into her small mouth, smashed it, and immediately smiled and rolled her eyes, "It's really

Sweet!"

Human beings' pursuit of carbohydrates and fats is engraved in genes. Although the sweetness in the stalks of sweet sorghum may not even be as good as one percent of the cheapest hard candies in later generations, but

In the Han Dynasty, there were not many sweet things, and it was even rarer to have a bite of sugar. Otherwise, the price of sugar would not have always been a high luxury product, and it would be expensive.

Wang Si held a dried stem in her mouth and bit it at the corner of her mouth. It tasted like a eldest sister in later generations. "Hiss...it's indeed sweeter...so to speak, it's not bad...then what is this dried vegetable?" It's sweet.

Things can be used to make sugar, and sugar is a luxury product in the Han Dynasty and represents money.

"This thing is Artemisia alba..." Zhen Mi said softly and gracefully, "This thing can grow in mountains, dry valleys, and tidal flats, and does not occupy an acre of land... When it is young and tender, people can eat it.

The thick stems can be fed by livestock... I heard that during the chaos in Qingzhou in the past, this was the thing, and countless people were alive..."

Wang Shu looked at the dried vegetables, then turned to look at Zhen Mi, and said with a half-smile: "In that case...why not offer it to me?"

Zhen Mi said solemnly: "If it is a tribute, it only has the merit of offering seeds. What you get is just some gold, silver and brocade coins, so what's the use? Now we know that Madam Wang is good at farming and farming, if she chooses first

Sow it in a place and wait for it to bear fruit..."

Wang Shu rolled his eyes and smiled slightly, "I see... Madam Zhen is really a good calculator... Anyway, this matter is actually not difficult to say..." Offering a few seeds whose effectiveness has not yet been proven to be effective.

, and which one has been proven to be indeed useful and effective? Which one can get more credit? Planting Zhuanghe, for Zhen Mi and Xin Xianying, is naturally a more difficult thing, but for Wang Shu,

But quite easy.

Zhen Mi nodded, then turned to Xin Xianying with a gentle smile, "I will provide the money and goods, and Mrs. Wang will go out to work in the fields. Mrs. Xin, I will ask you to make a name for yourself... Mrs. Xin is smart, charming, and unparalleled. She must be

Many young masters like to complain about it... Ah, Lady Xin, don't be upset... Once the cultivation of this plant has achieved some success, it will be difficult for you and me to become famous, and if there are people like Lady Xin who are fond of complaining...

Haha, Madam Xin, don’t be upset... Madam Xin will also be able to choose from them, and a talented man and a beautiful woman will naturally be a good match... Ah, I won’t say it anymore, okay, I won’t say it anymore..."
