Chapter 382 The Overseas World

"Well, this is what I planted from the wasteland of Yaoshan."

Zhu Ye nodded.

Originally, he specially opened up a piece of land in Yaoshan to plant seeds he got from the system.

Unexpectedly, when he returned from his trip to Wuchang, many things in the field had already sprouted and bear fruit.

This sweet potato and the potatoes in the field are actually much more mature.

It only took a season of kung fu and it was able to produce results, even Zhu Ye couldn't help but be amazed.

But thinking that I have been traveling from the 21st century, why can't the system bring the seeds of the 21st century?

Zhu Ye quickly felt relieved.

However, the harvest of these crops surprised Zhu Ye unexpectedly.

He has always been worried about the locust plague this year, but if these seeds are really put into planting, he can handle the food shortage after the locust plague.

Of course, Zhu Ye was just in case of emergency, and he was not sure whether there would be a locust plague.

So I just prepare first.

In any case, the cultivation of sweet potatoes and potatoes greatly solved the shortage of food in the Ming Dynasty.

Although these things can be stored for a short time, they can be planted in large quantities, with a high survival rate and a short growth cycle.

If it really starts to grow widely, it will be enough to cope with the daily fullness of the people.

The remaining rice and cereals can be stored to cope with the winter.

No matter what, this matter is beneficial to the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

As a farmer, he certainly knew the importance of food.

Just by the entrance, he knew that the sweet potato must be very full.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang knew about Zhu Ye’s Yaoshan.

The vegetable fields opened in Yaoshan have not been long for the whole year, but in just one season, they have already produced fruit?

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little surprised.

You should know that in the era they are in now, it takes more than half a year to mature rice.

If some natural disasters and man-made disasters lead to low grain production and even no harvest of particles.

If the people want to plant new food and grass, they can only wait until next year.

Now, the little thing called sweet potato in my hand looks inconspicuous.

But if the harvest is really possible in a short period of time, it will solve a big problem.

"How long can this thing last from planting to maturity?"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but get excited.

Zhu Ye sighed that grandpa was indeed grandpa, and he asked the key point in one sentence.

“It’s over April.”

Zhu Ye stretched out four fingers and shook at Zhu Yuanzhang.

“Can a special growth environment be needed?”

There was a faint light in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes. He stared at Zhu Ye, afraid that Zhu Ye's answer would disappoint him.

"Grandpa, what are the growth conditions for my wasteland?"

"As long as it is not extremely cold and drought, this thing is easy to live."

Zhu Ye threw the remaining sweet potato into the fire and explained to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"really?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Zhu Ye's words, he was immediately overjoyed, but he still felt that such a good thing that would have fallen into the sky would have happened.

Zhu Ye nodded, and Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised again: "Why didn't we find such a good thing?"

He was wondering why he had never heard of such a good thing before.

Logically speaking, he has eaten more salt than Zhu Ye has eaten for so many years.

Why, he didn't know such a good thing, but Zhu Ye knew more than him, a young boy.

If you say that you are making fireworks or gunpowder, what you have developed by yourself can explain it if Zhu Ye is born smart.

However, crops like sweet potatoes cannot be studied.

Even if this thing appears in front of people for nothing, no one will think it can be eaten.

So, how did Zhu Ye know that this thing can be eaten, and he also knew that he wanted to grow it.

Zhu Yuanzhang was really puzzled.

"The world is so big, everything is strange."

"Grandpa is afraid he doesn't know that this sweet potato is a rare thing for us."

"But for those overseas countries, it is a regular food."

"Some places cannot plant rice and wheat seedlings that we rely on for our livelihood, so they planted this sweet potato in large quantities."

“Become a daily full thing.”

"I discovered this thing from outside. I originally thought that the environment might not be suitable for planting."

"I didn't expect that this thing has a very strong adaptability and is growing well on the land of my Ming Dynasty."

Of course, Zhu Ye couldn't say that this thing was given to him by the system.

Wouldn't such a terrifying bug scare people of this era to death?

It would be fine if he was regarded as a god, but what if he was regarded as a monster?

"You mean, is this thing coming from overseas?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

Zhu Ye nodded. He didn't say anything anyway. Since grandpa felt so, he didn't want to explain.

Just let your grandfather misunderstand like this.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the sweet potato in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Because there are too many things recently, he temporarily put the theory of opening up the maritime ban that had been put on the agenda.

At this time, Zhu Ye suddenly mentioned it.

He remembered the wonderful strategy when Zhu Ye was in the hospital before.

Although few Japanese pirates sneaked in the seas of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang still did not think about eliminating the sea ban.

Although he was once ambitious and wanted to conquer the world.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang has been hesitating whether to fight for the unfamiliar shortcomings of the sea area to waste money.

In the past, the Ming Dynasty was not sufficient enough to provide for the need for war.

Just the war on land was enough for him to have a headache, and he didn't dare to extend his hand to the sea.

But now.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the sweet potato in his hand and his eyes gradually became firmer.

"The Ming Dynasty invested a lot of military power and funds in the north."

"Now, the strongest place in military power is the Beiping and other places that prevent foreign countries."

"But, whether it is the foreign country or the Yuan bandits, their years of war and conquest have made them lose their skills and become grasshoppers after autumn, and they are not afraid of it."

"Now the country is prosperous and the people are safe, so it can be considered a good meal and clothing."

"Is it necessary to open the sea ban?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Ye, as if seeking Zhu Ye's answer.

"What are grandpa afraid of?"

"Are you afraid that if you break this balance, you will re-enter the stable Ming Dynasty into water and fire?"

Zhu Ye smiled. It was not that he didn't understand his grandfather's thoughts.
