None of the plans I had for coming here were completed, but I did gain something unexpected.
The governor of Lu didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he fell into deep thought.
There is no doubt that not inviting Zhang Mingtu to the North was a failure for the overall strategy.
But since Zhang Mingtu showed his affection for him and took the initiative to demonstrate more advanced agricultural techniques to him, this invitation could not be considered a failure.
In particular, this immortal species is even better than the previous fine species. If it can be promoted on a large scale, it will undoubtedly be a huge achievement.
In the past, such words often appeared in memorials, but they often only covered the relevant people who owned a lot of land. It was more of a boast. Few people in history have been able to truly put this title into practice.
Usually, only the core area of a continent can reach such a level. It is difficult to achieve in farther and wider areas, not to mention Yizhou, a famously poor place with poor mountains and bad waters. It is nothing but a pipe dream to want to reach such a level.
And now, if there are such good varieties, it can undoubtedly be achieved.
With such achievements, it is basically certain that one will be able to rise to the top.
You don't even need to do too much, just promote the corresponding good varieties normally.
Moreover, he came to Jiujiang County for inspection during this period to learn about this aspect, that is, to learn about the policies and methods related to Ruihai.
Under normal circumstances, he would not want to learn so thoroughly. After all, he had to consider the many related interests below, and many people who relied on him could not firmly implement the policies in this regard.
If it is forced through, it will be a harm to many aristocratic families. They will not be able to earn more, which will be a loss for them.
But now he couldn't help but think of more.
The North has been waging wars against foreign powers for many years, especially having to guard against the northern barbarians who may invade Daxia.
Relevant food has always been in short supply in the north, and people will never complain about having too much food.
It has always been a requirement that food and fodder must be sent before troops move out. However, the demand and pressure for money and food in the north is too great, which has resulted in the population in the north not being able to grow further.
For a local force, the most important things to measure themselves in this era are undoubtedly money and food.
Sometimes, the two are even the same.
Having money does not necessarily mean having food, but having food will definitely mean having money.
With the immortal seeds in hand, there are so many things you can do.
Wang Han was even confident that after accumulating food and grass for several years, he could directly attack the northern border.
Moreover, the accumulation of money, food, and armor can also provide great help to the third prince in this process.
There are many military figures in the lineage of the Third Prince, but Daxia has been peaceful for a long time without large-scale wars, so the military's power is not as strong as before.
If the glory of Taizu could be continued in the north, a large number of military personnel would definitely be promoted.
All related cases of the Third Prince's lineage will be greatly improved.
When he thought of this, he couldn't sit still anymore.
"Such a fine seed is given directly to me, without reporting it to Kyoto?"
The other party gave too much, and he felt a little uneasy.
Originally, when he came here, he was holding the corresponding seal authorized by the Third Prince in his arms, which could mobilize a large number of forces related to the Third Prince.
Of course, this is only at the prefecture level, and there is no way to mobilize higher-level forces.
From the original perspective, inviting Zhang Mingtu to the North, vigorously publicizing Zhang Mingtu's achievements, and at the same time doing everything possible to greatly improve Zhang Mingtu's official status, can be considered acceptable.
The token related to the Third Prince was at most a bonus, giving Zhang Mingtu the mark of the Third Prince's lineage.
But now it seems that this thing is a bit embarrassing.
After all, Zhang Mingtu is unwilling to go to the north. The power of the third prince's lineage in the Jiangnan area cannot have much influence, and they cannot give Zhang Mingtu much.
From this perspective, the overall situation is too unbalanced, and it is very likely that Zhang Mingtu, the most outstanding person, will go to the side of the eldest prince.
Wang Han, who had witnessed Zhang Mingtu's strength, definitely didn't want to see this.
Zhang Mingtu was much more powerful than he had imagined. Just based on the related improved varieties and subsequent improvements, he was already considered the top figure in agronomy. There was no one in the whole of Daxia who was so powerful in agronomy.
Not to mention that there is a high probability that there will be more achievements in this regard in the future.
Therefore, it is incredible to continue to achieve more on the basis of the original foundation. After all, if a person does something that can be recorded in history in his life, it is enough to shock the world.
But when facing Zhang Mingtu, the governor had such confidence in his heart. The young man in front of him seemed to always be able to create miracles.
"Of course this improved variety can be used, but there are still too many areas for improvement. Many of the demonstrations haven't been unanimously approved by the Agricultural College, so there's no way to promote it on a large scale. Currently, we can only conduct small-scale experiments. As for the extent of the experiments, there's no perfect standard yet..."
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through the governor's mind, and he keenly grasped the meaning of Zhang Mingtu's words.
Good varieties do require rigorous demonstration, and each agricultural college needs to have strict standards so that they can be promoted on a large scale.
Many areas of Lu and even the entire north were under his control. Whether a good variety could pass or not often depended on his nod. Even if there were some problems, the proposal could basically be submitted successfully, which became a very famous political achievement.
