As a member of society, Lu Chen knows very well that he should do his best in his performance.
It's such a happy thing, how can you not give the emperor a chance to show his talents?
Those few acres of land were not leftovers. They were specially set aside by Lu Chen so that Li Zhuo could harvest them himself and have a sense of participation.
There are some things that you cannot really feel when someone tells you about them. Only when you experience them yourself can you understand how shocking they are.
The few acres of land that Lu Chen left behind were carefully cultivated and a lot of organic fertilizer was used. Naturally, the growth was better than other lands, and it was normal for the yield to be high.
The six ministers and some important officials who rushed to the scene after hearing the news fell into deep thought when they saw the piles of golden pumpkins in front of them.
It turns out that Lu Chen was really careful with the data. The yield of 59 dan per mu is not the limit of this new crop, but the bottom line of this new crop!
"Okay! Okay! Okay, okay!"
Li Zhuo said "OK" several times in a row. At this moment, he was so excited that his mind was confused!
Such a good thing, is it really from Daqi?
This is indeed an auspicious sign, the kind that can be immediately offered to the gods and ancestors.
Thinking this in his mind, he walked forward, reached out to touch this pumpkin, and patted that pumpkin.
Lu Chen watched from the side and couldn't help but wonder in his heart, guessing that Li Zhuo was not as gentle to the concubines in his harem as he was at this moment.
After struggling for quite some time, Li Zhuo finally let go of his hand. He turned to look at Lu Chen and said, "Master, what is the name of this thing?"
"Your Majesty, this thing is called pumpkin."
"Pumpkin? How could such a magical and auspicious thing have such an ordinary and mundane name?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen knew what Li Zhuo meant. He felt that Li Zhuo was a bit shameless.
Isn't it just that he wants the naming rights for this crop, so that Li Zhuo can leave a significant mark in history books just like the pumpkin?
The history books would have recorded it this way: The emperor was delighted to see the pumpkin, but he also thought it was rather vulgar, so he gave it the name...
Well, he is the emperor after all. Lu Chen felt that he should cooperate with the other party's performance.
So he perfunctorily bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your words make sense. Then please give us a new name!"
Li Zhuo chuckled, and besides joy, there was also a little embarrassment on his face.
But compared to leaving one's name in history, this little embarrassment is nothing!
He looked at the pumpkin in front of him, sized it up, and finally said, "I see it's golden in color, which is very pleasing. Why not call it the Golden Pumpkin?"
Lu Chen nodded and thought to himself, it’s okay, you’re lucky you didn’t call this thing a cucumber.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the name. From today on, this thing will be called the Golden Melon!"
When the ministers heard Lu Chen say this, their eyes turned red with envy and jealousy!
Shameless! Absolutely shameless! What does your Majesty have to do with this? This was all done by Immortal Master Lu himself!
Now that the results have come out, your Great Qi court has gained the greatest benefit. The national strength will prosper in the future. As an emperor, you actually want to snatch even the naming rights of such a thing. Do you have any shame at all!
It’s so annoying. Why doesn’t this good opportunity come to me?
Li Zhuo also knew that what he did was not very decent, so after finishing the conversation, he came to Lu Chen and said, "Brother-in-law, thank you so much for this!"
This was the first time Li Zhuo addressed Lu Chen like this. Lu Chen's mouth twitched for a moment, and he could only nod and say, "We're family, why be polite!"
I don’t know why, but Lu Chen’s simple words “family” suddenly made Li Zhuo feel better.
Why does the emperor call himself lonely? Because being an emperor is really lonely.
Since he sat on the throne, he hasn't felt the love of family for a long time.
But Li Zhuo suddenly discovered that he didn't need to act in a pretentious manner in front of Lu Chen. When Li Mingyue saw him, she didn't treat him as an emperor, but as a brother.
Even when Li Xiang saw him, there was less awe in her eyes and more closeness to her father.
At first, Li Zhuo thought it was his illusion, but now he can finally be sure that he really felt the precious family love from these three people.
After thinking this through, Li Zhuo felt better. He quietly nudged Lu Chen with his shoulder and said, "When Mingyue is born, please inform me in advance."
Lu Chen also lowered his voice and said, "I want to tell you about this matter. I want Mingyue to give birth in the hospital of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This way the safety factor will be much higher."
The hospital of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is of very high quality and has a very good environment. Li Zhuoye has heard about this. As the weather has become colder in recent times, many elderly princes and ministers have not been feeling well, and many of them have been admitted to the hospital for recuperation.
But isn't childbirth something that only women can handle? Does the Chinese Academy of Sciences have midwives?
After expressing his doubts, Lu Chen smiled and nodded, saying, "The Chinese Academy of Sciences has just established an obstetrics and gynecology department. Whether it's doctors or nurses, they're all women. Your Majesty can rest assured about this. In a couple of days, I plan to start accepting pregnant women from all over the capital. It's free in the early stages, so that I can accumulate experience and prepare for Mingyue's birth."
Li Zhuo looked at Lu Chen with complicated eyes and said, "You can do this for Mingyue. She really didn't misjudge you. In this respect, I am not as good as you!"
