Chapter 701: Observation

"Grandpa, what's the matter? You're so happy. I've secretly started drinking here early in the morning?" In the early morning, after practicing calligraphy in the study, Su Chenxi and his maid Bajiao came out to greet the old man. Seeing Su Bingren sitting leisurely in the pavilion in the backyard drinking and drinking, as he got closer, he could even hear the opera humming from the old man's mouth. Su Chenxi couldn't help but speed up a few steps, jogged behind Su Bingren, stretched out his arms to hold the old man's neck, and stretched out one hand to snatch the wine glass from the old man's hand. He said with a little reproach: "Didn't Mr. Liu say that, you are still exhausted and need to rest. You can't drink wine for the past month."

"Uh, hehe, it's Xi'er getting up," Looking at the wine glass taken away by her granddaughter, Su Bingren smacked her lips lightly and said with a gentle smile: "Grandpa has encountered such a big happy event. I want to drink a glass to show my congratulations, haha..."

"Besides," seeing the little face of the baby granddaughter tense up, Mr. Su continued, "It's been half a month since this, and my grandfather's body has long recovered as before. I'll take a few sips occasionally, it's okay."

As he said that, the old man pretended to be pitiful in front of his granddaughter with a bitter face: "Also, for so long, my grandfather's mouth is tasteless, he can't eat and sleep well, and his heart is scratching. In addition, when he encounters such a big happy thing today, if you don't let your grandfather take a few sips, you may be really sick."

"Hmph! I don't believe that you can get sick if you don't drink?" Xiao Qiong raised her nose, and Su Chenxi turned around and sat down on the stone bench opposite her grandfather with a wine glass. She looked at Su Bingren and said in a sweet voice: "Also, Grandpa hasn't answered Xier's question yet. What kind of happy events have you encountered that can make Grandpa so happy?"

"This morning, the emperor said that I went to the palace." Seeing that the baby granddaughter did not investigate the matter of stealing alcohol, Su Bingren breathed a sigh of relief, straightened his legs, found a comfortable position to sit down, and said in a voice: "In the court, from the emperor's golden mouth, grandpa got a great news."

"Do you know the manor of the Sanyuan Liu family?" Without giving the answer directly, Su Bingren first asked his precious granddaughter.

"Of course I know. Xier had learned calligraphy with Mr. Liu before, and when Mr. Liu made another waterwheel, Xier was also on the spot. Don't grandpa know all of these? Xier still remembers that for this, grandpa gave Mr. Liu a 'mo Nong Order'." As soon as these past events were mentioned, Su Chenxi's face showed a softness. The time she studied calligraphy in the Liu Mansion was the longest time she had spent with Mr. Liu?

At that time, the Liu family was still a small family, and Mr. Liu had not yet married Sister Zhang. When he thought of these, the little girl's thoughts flew far away. At that time, she and her grandfather knew that Liu Yi, who had not yet made a name for himself, was destined to be not a thing in the pond. However, neither of them expected that he, and their entire Liu family, would rise so quickly and quickly. Before everyone could react, the Liu Mansion had become one of the few big families in Sanyuan and even Chang'an, and Liu Yi had become a "miracle doctor" and "magic craftsman" famous inside and outside the Tang Dynasty.

Even the second son of the Liu family, Liu Ertou, also won the first place in one fell swoop, becoming the county magistrate of either side.

Things in the world are changing, and it is not surprising that it is not surprising, but the Liu family has become too fast...

"Oh, yes, 'Monong Ling', look at the grandfather's brain, he really grows more and more memory as he grows older. Such an important thing almost forgot to be aside." After hearing what his baby granddaughter mentioned, Old Man Su couldn't help but raise his hand and pat his head. 'Monong Ling', the only agricultural token issued in the Tang Dynasty so far. If Su Chenxi didn't mention it, Su Bingren would have forgotten it.

Free agricultural tax for life, purchase of official food, agricultural tools, and... Thinking about Liu Yi and Liu Mansion and others' current situation, Su Bingren thought in his heart whether it should be necessary to inform Yu Liu of the other functions of the "Mo Nong Order" now?

"Grandpa! Grandpa! What are you thinking? Haven't you told Xier what happy events have you encountered?" Seeing that the old man was a little distracted, Su Chenxi couldn't help but look at his grandfather in a hurry and asked Mr. Su again.

"Oh, hehe," I came back to my senses and saw the petite and cute appearance of my baby granddaughter, Old Man Su couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Okay, okay, grandpa will tell you now."

After pausing for a moment, Su Bingren asked Su Chenxi: "Xi'er knows less about the situation of Liu'er's Manor than grandfather. Do you know that in the past two years, has the average yield per mu of fertile land harvested in each season of Liu'er's Manor?"

"Uh, why did grandpa suddenly remember this?" It was completely beyond Su Chenxi's expectations. For families like them, who would specifically ask about the output of others' farmland?

"Two-eighty-five kilograms!" I expected that his granddaughter could not answer, so before Su Chenxi could respond, Su Bingren continued to give the answer: "Of course, 150 hectares of wasteland just reclaimed last year. The thirty hectares of fertile land belonging to the Liu family, and the average yield per mu was 300 kilograms."

"Three hundred kilograms? Every acre? Even the yield is even?!" Hearing this, Su Chenxi's little hand couldn't help but tremble, and she was shocked and couldn't speak. At this point, she finally understood what grandpa and the old man were so happy for.

Since childhood, Su Chenxi has been lingering in various places, farms and fields, and has been influenced by the eyes and ears. Su Chenxi has become more familiar with these things in agriculture. She is even more familiar with the agricultural output of various places in the Tang Dynasty, various places, and governments. Su Chenxi's heart is even more clear than many local officials.

Eighty kilograms are ordinary, one hundred kilograms are small, and anything more than one hundred and two can be called the year of great prosperity. For example, the Liufu Manor that grandfather mentioned just now, with an average output value of 285 to 300 kilograms per mu. What is that? Even if you think about it with your toes, Su Chenxi could imagine that the average output value of three times that of ordinary output can be regarded as a miracle.

How did they do it? At the first moment, Su Chenxi thought of this problem and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Mr. Su.

"Are you curious about how their Liu Mansion did it?" Zhisun Mo Ruo, and before Su Chenxi could speak, Old Man Su asked first. Then the old man laughed and replied: "This morning court, what the emperor said to his grandfather is this problem."

"Yesterday, the second son of the Liu family, namely the boy Liu Ertou, made a special trip to meet the emperor and submitted a memorial to the emperor, telling the harvest and farming status of all the fields of the Liu family over the past two years." Seeing that the banana was able to brew two cups of tea and served, the old man reached out to pick it up, and whispered: "In addition to the 'Liu family plough' and 'Liu family water wheel' made by Brother Liu, all the fields in the Liu family manor are highly productive, and also benefit from a brand new farming model."

"Essential cultivation, block management, and the inter-contracting..." Speaking of his professionalism, Old Man Su's two old eyes suddenly lit up, and he spoke in a cheerful voice: "I never thought before that, besides being able to make utensils and be proficient in medical skills, Liu could have such brilliant insights and outstanding achievements in farming."

"If the farming model of their Liu Family Manor could be promoted and applied in Sanyuan, Chang'an, and even in the entire Tang Dynasty," a kind of fanatical light burst out from his old eyes. Old Man Su clenched his fists and looked at his precious granddaughter and said, "Xi'er, can you imagine what the situation will be like in the Tang Dynasty?"

To improve agricultural level, improve agricultural production, improve the current poor living conditions of farmers, and enhance the overall national strength of the Tang Empire, what Old Man Su pursued throughout his life is hopeless and almost something that is hard to come by. Under the new farming model proposed by Liu Yiu, it has become completely hopeful, touchable and accessible. The old man’s current emotions are beyond words.

"Grandpa!" Seeing grandpa's excited look, Su Chenxi shouted softly, without saying anything, but slowly handed over the wine glass she had just grabbed from the old man. As grandpa said just now, encountering such a huge happy event is indeed worth falling apart.

"Just just now, I've already taken Su An to pack up my things," he drank the things in the cup with satisfaction. Old Man Su looked at his precious granddaughter happily and said, "According to the emperor's will, my grandfather will rush to the Liu family in Sanyuan today to visit and collect evidence to see if this new farming method is suitable for large-scale promotion and implementation in my Tang Dynasty."

While she was happy, Su Bingren did not forget to feel sorry for her precious granddaughter. After looking at Su Chenxi kindly, she continued: "I have been with me, the old man at home for so long, and rarely go out. Our Xier thought she was very bored. This time, let's go with my grandfather."

The old man's last words made Su Chenxi's little girl feel excited and happy with her grandfather.
