Zhang Feng was stunned.
His expression changed in an instant. "You went to my East Court?"
Li Shimin shook his head again and again. He pointed at Niu Jinda and said, "I don't know. Ask him!"
In one sentence, he completely betrayed Niu Jinda.
Niu Jinda was depressed!
But who asked him to be the emperor?
Niu Jinda had no choice but to bite the bullet and say with a smile, "Well, last time, when he saw that the tiger leg was slightly better, he wanted to go and thank you. But you know, we heard that you went down the mountain and thought that you were in your residence, so we went to visit you. But we didn't know what gift to bring, so we brought you a calligraphy and painting."
"That kid was very curious! He couldn't sit still and wanted to wander around the courtyard, saying that he wanted to breathe fresh air. In the end, he saw the old man at the entrance of the East Court … "
Niu Jinda knew that this matter could not be hidden, and he also wanted to know what that thing was. Even the imperial physician did not know what it was. It showed how precious this thing was.
It had already happened. What could Zhang Feng say?
He glared at Niu Jinda speechlessly and said, "Old Niu, I really didn't hide this matter. That thing is actually an experiment. I don't know if it will work. And the seed of that thing, as far as the current situation is concerned, there are only a few of us in the entire Tang Dynasty. As for whether there are other places, I don't know. In short, I got it from a merchant in the Western Regions. I heard that it floated over from the other side of the sea."
At this time, if Zhang Feng's history was true, then the magical potato should still be in America.
And there was only one place that could float over from the sea.
It must have come from the strait of Shiwei, from North America all the way across the sea, or because of a typhoon.
This was the only explanation that could be found now.
Then, it was obtained by these merchants as a treasure.
But this thing was bitter raw, so no one knew what it was. It floated all the way to the Western Regions.
In the end, it fell into Zhang Feng's hands.
How many coincidences must there be for such a miraculous thing to happen?
What if this thing got soaked in the seawater and became rotten?
What if this thing sprouted along the way?
That was the most amazing thing.
After a series of coincidences, it fell into Zhang Feng's hands. It would be strange if Zhang Feng didn't treat it as a treasure.
Zhang Feng explained, "This thing's scientific name is Potato. It's a rare treasure in No.1 Middle School. As for how precious it is, I can't tell you for the time being. Anyway, I'll give you a surprise when the time comes!"
Seeing that Zhang Feng was unwilling to say, Li Shimin had no choice but to treat him as a treasure.
Something that Zhang Feng treasured so much must be a treasure.
But as for how precious it was, that was unknown. But in Li Shimin's opinion, no matter how precious it was, it shouldn't be like this, right?
He didn't take it seriously and shook his head. "That potato, did it also use this phosphate fertilizer?"
Zhang Feng nodded. "Didn't you all see it? Since you've seen it, why are you still asking me? Okay, don't ask anymore. If I say that phosphate fertilizer is useful, it's really useful. If there's nothing else, I'll go and do the experiment now. I'll try to get this thing done in a short time. Oh right, Lao Li, have you found the factory I asked you to find? "
Li Shimin saw that Zhang Feng brought the question back to the main topic and sighed. "It's done. Didn't Old Niu find the phosphate stone mine at the south foot of Longshou Mountain? I'm going to build the factory there. Behind that place is the Royal Plantation. Further south is the Daming Palace in Chang 'an City. It's also the most heavily guarded place in Chang' an. "
"Under normal circumstances, there won't be any problems. As for the factory, I've already found someone to build it. But … that place is too barren. There's not even water. Are you sure you want to put it there?"
"No water?"
Zhang Feng was stunned.
Water was an important step in the extraction of phosphate fertilizer. If there was no water, it would be troublesome.
Zhang Feng thought for a while and asked, "I remember that there's water on Longshou Mountain, right?"
"I have a map here. Take a look at it first!"
Li Shimin took out a map from his arms.
This was a detailed map of the entire area from Daming Palace to Longshou Mountain. However, this was a map that Li Shimin redrew after removing some important military advisors.
Zhang Feng looked at the mountains and ravines on the map and couldn't help but frown slightly.
The map was very detailed. The names and directions of the mountains were clearly marked on it. The area with the phosphate stone in the south foot of Longshou Mountain wasn't big. It was just a mountain that extended to the Royal Plantation on the main peak of Longshou Mountain.
Perhaps it was because the soil and water here was too fertile that the Emperor chose to build the Royal Plantation here?
As for the area where the phosphate stone was located, although it was a stretch of sloping land, there wasn't a single river or canal.
Perhaps this was why the Emperor didn't choose to build the Royal Plantation here even though it was more fertile. Instead, he chose another place. .
This was difficult to handle.
Zhang Feng couldn't help but feel somewhat distressed.
