In Chu Shenghuai's view, as long as there is money, everything is fine.

But now, after hearing Song Shaoqin's words, his whole mind suddenly cleared up a lot.

He took it for granted!

He only thought that he had enough financial resources to support his great cause, but he completely ignored the situation and situation in the world today, and he never thought about the possibility of food shortages at all.

As Song Shaoqin said, now he can indeed rely on a large amount of financial resources to buy food from various states, but what about after that?
You must know that once this battle starts, it will not end in a short period of time, and he is already ready for a protracted battle, and his princess has also given him great support, so he is full of confidence.

So much so that he ignored the impact and consequences of the current situation. The common people have not recovered from the impact of the natural disaster last year. Now they are recruiting soldiers and fighting. I am afraid that it will be more difficult for the common people to recuperate, let alone grow food. up.

That is to say, for at least two or three years, grain production will only decrease significantly and will not increase again. In the later period, the common people may not have food to eat, let alone provide food and grass for the army.

The consequences are unimaginable.

The most important thing is that most of the handed-in food is still in the hands of his brother, so how much can he take in the end?

In this way, no matter how much money he has, there is nothing he can do.

This matter really does not stand up to scrutiny, it is simply frightening to think carefully, at this moment Chu Shenghuai was completely startled and broke out in a cold sweat.

Sure enough, Mr. Xiao Song is smart enough to see far enough.

If their side runs out of food and grass in the middle, not only will all their efforts be for naught, but he, Chu Shenghuai, will also become the laughing stock of the world.

At that time, his imperial brother will definitely not let him go.

"So, Mr. Xiao Song, what good idea do you have? Now that we've reached this point, you might as well open the skylight and speak honestly. As long as you can help me, I, Chu Shenghuai, will repay you twice in the future!"

After this trial and confrontation, Chu Shenghuai completely lost the mind to control the Song family, and did not dare to use Qiao's identity to suppress others. As long as the other party can help him solve the food crisis, even if they are not willing to join It doesn't matter what your own team is.

Even if the Song family is in the mud now, not everyone can control it casually.

After figuring it out, Chu Shenghuai lowered his requirements time and time again, from wanting to take advantage of the Song family to being helpless, and now as long as the Song family does not become hostile to him, he is very satisfied.

As for his plans before coming here?Now that they have all disappeared cleanly, since they cannot become allies on the front line with the Song family, they must at least maintain a friendly relationship.

At this moment, the two people in the room strangely reached the same idea. They didn't want to be comrades-in-arms, nor were they willing to be enemies. As long as they maintained a good relationship, no one would hinder the other.

Song Shaoqin didn't show off, and directly stated, "Our Baiyun Village can provide food for your army to ensure that your food and grass will not be cut off."

They had originally planned to develop the product economy in the village, including food. If it was the local food of Eastern Chu, he would not be able to do this business, but their Baiyun Village now has a high-yield potato.

After the beginning of spring, their village will continue to open up wasteland and increase the amount of food planted. Not only potatoes, but also sweet potatoes with high yields will also be planted.

With these two high-yield grains, Baiyun Village will not run out of grain. Of course, they will definitely have to go to Hyundai to buy more ready-made potatoes and sweet potatoes, otherwise, they will provide them to the army. There is not enough food and grass.

"You provide us with food?" Chu Shenghuai felt a little absurd. Can this small mountain village grow the food their army needs?
It's not that he deliberately looked down on them, but that an army's daily food consumption was greater than that of their entire village.

He just doesn't understand the affairs of the field anymore, but he also knows that the output of one mu of land is at most five or six hundred catties. Apart from the public grain handed in, the people don't have much surplus grain in their hands. Otherwise, why are there so many people in this world? How hungry are people?

Even if all the people in this village opened up wasteland and farmed land, the amount of food produced would not be enough for an army.

Song Shaoqin smiled lightly, "Don't worry, my lord. Since I said that, I naturally have the confidence. What's more, with our current identities, how dare we fool the lord? To tell you the truth, we actually discovered it on the way to exile. A new crop.

After several months of hard work and planting observation, we found that this crop can be used as a staple food. Most importantly, the yield of this crop is several times higher than that of all our current food species. "

"Really? Then what is this grain?" Chu Shenghuai was a little excited, but he still had some doubts about the yield of this new grain.

After all, he has never seen it with his own eyes, let alone heard of any high-yield grains. Who doesn't know if Song Shaoqin is deliberately fooling himself?

Song Shaoqin said frankly, "Naturally, we can't fake it. We named this new crop potato. The method of planting this new crop was painstakingly researched by us. It took us a lot of thought and energy. Our village is already preparing for the next crop. Large-scale planting began in January.

The prince doesn't have to worry about the harvest time being late, our potato harvest only takes about three months, and we can supply them in time before you run out of food. "

"Three months? So soon?"

Chu Shenghuai looked surprised, why can the grain be harvested in such a short period of time?And it is still several times higher than the local food production?

It doesn't look like Song Shaoqin is telling a lie, and he doesn't bother to tell such a lie, right?

He is really curious about this new crop called 'potatoes' now.

But he is not stupid, do you really think he didn't hear what Song Shaoqin said?

Saying so much is to show that they will not hand over this new crop, and only they know the planting method in the whole world. If you want to continue to supply food and grass, the best way is to find them in Baiyun Village to buy it.

This is also indirectly telling myself that if they still try to engage in intimidation, they will only die. After all, if they are gone, no one will be able to grow these potatoes.

Therefore, this cooperation is undoubtedly the best way for both of them to maintain friendly relations.

Since they can't become allies, there is still a layer of cooperative relationship, which can be regarded as mutual assistance and mutual benefit.

Song Shaoqin nodded and said, "That's right, the harvest can be harvested within three months at the earliest, and two seasons can be planted in a year. With such high-yielding and efficient grain seeds, I wonder if our Baiyun Village has the qualifications to cooperate with you, my lord?"

Good night~
