Chapter 351: Jinmaoshu

Although he is a martial artist and has never had to worry about food and clothing since childhood, Bai Yutang, the golden-haired mouse, still has common sense.
Know what it means to produce 1,000 kilograms per mu.
Even the Immortal Rice is only at this level.
And can the things I found really reach the same level as immortal weapons?
Bai Yutang doesn't have much confidence.
"I'll take this." Lu Sen then shouted to the little girl next to him, "Lingo, help me pick out five spirit beast statues from the warehouse."
Jin Lingqin nodded and turned away.
Bai Yutang was stunned after listening to this. After a while, he asked in surprise, "Master Lu, the spirit beasts you are talking about are the ones used by Prefect Bao and Grand Tutor Pang...?"
Although he got the books on cultivation from Lu Sen and was considered talented, unfortunately there was not much Qi in the world, so his cultivation progress was slow.
Of course, it was not without gain... He could feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and his skills improved a lot.
If you really count them, the only people in the world who can definitely beat him are probably the women in the Lu family who can "absorb" spiritual energy, and Zhan Zhao, who also got the cultivation secrets from Lu Sen and has a spiritual beast contract.
As for the group of old masters in the martial arts world, they were no longer the targets of the Golden-Haired Rat two or three years ago.

Now his only thought is to practice.
He secretly went to the "Xianyuan Pavilion" to test, but unfortunately he did not have the fate to become a disciple of an immortal.
Although he already had a master, he still dressed up secretly and went to Xianyuan Pavilion to try it out.
From common sense, this is a shameful thing in the martial arts world. It is considered betrayal of one's master and a heinous crime.
But as far as Bai Yuting knew, many highly respected seniors in the martial arts world had also secretly tested it.
Even including his own master.
Then he started to see things more clearly. Who wouldn’t envy the system’s magical powers!
Very normal and reasonable.
After giving up the idea of ​​becoming Lu Sen's disciple, Bai Yutang no longer had any expectations for cultivation.
But now when he heard that Lu Sen was going to take out five contracted spirit beasts, he suddenly became... excited.
Bao Zheng is the best "advertisement".
A scholar who is barely able to even tie a chicken, an elderly senior official... after merging with the contracted spirit beast, he can actually beat up the top fighters in the martial arts world.
As for Grand Tutor Pang and Prince of Runan, I heard that they looked ten or twenty years younger. If you were not very familiar with them, you would hardly recognize them.
Therefore, in Bai Yutang's eyes, contracting a spirit beast... is a shortcut to step into the world of cultivation.
Lu Sen looked at Bai Yuting's excited expression and nodded.
Bai Yutang took a deep breath, then stood up and said, "Master Lu, my four brothers and I are here to pay our respects to you. We are so grateful for your kindness. From now on, the affairs of the System Sect will be the business of the Five Rats!"
"There's no need to do that." Lu Sen waved his hand: "This is what you deserve. It's a great achievement to help the people of Song Dynasty get this treasure back."
Bai Yuting looked at Lu Sen deeply for a while and said nothing.
He was increasingly confused about what Master Lu was thinking. This thing was clearly called "sweet potato" and the latter knew where to find it.
Master Lu doesn't even want to obtain it himself and achieve the status of a saint, but instead uses means and desires to drive ordinary people to obtain it. What is he thinking?
This question only lingered in Bai Yutang's mind for a moment, and then he gave up.
The reason was simple. Jin Lingqin came over holding five wooden sculptures.
Bai Yuting stood up suddenly and looked at the five wooden carvings with burning eyes.
Half an hour later, Bai Yuting carried the five wooden sculptures in a large cloth bag, out of the mountain gate, and returned to Hangzhou city.
He was quite nervous and alert along the way. He walked on small paths and rooftops and tried his best to avoid close contact with people.
When I returned to the inn and climbed in through the third-floor window, I saw that my four brothers were all there, and I breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fifth brother, you are finally back."
The other four mice gathered around. They were very curious. Are the red rhizomes they got really valuable?
How much would Master Lu have to pay to buy it?
Under the expectant gazes of the four people, Bai Yutang opened the cloth bag on his back with a proud look on his face.
Looking at the wood carvings inside, the four rats were stunned, and then let out a terrifying roar.
But just when the four of them were halfway through shouting, they saw Bai Yuting making a gesture to silence them.
The four of them nodded repeatedly.
"Choose one and acknowledge him as your master by dropping blood as soon as possible."
"Fifth brother, choose first." The eldest brother, Lu Fang, said firmly, "If you hadn't known Master Lu, this good thing would definitely not have been ours."

That’s indeed the case.
The Lu Fang family lived on Xiankong Island, and their family had been sailing for generations, so they had a profound family education. However, it was completely impossible for them to sail a sailboat for hundreds or even thousands of kilometers on the sea without getting into trouble.
Take the small wooden boats of the Lu family for example. Let alone long voyages, if they encounter strong winds and waves near the coast, they have to dock immediately to avoid them.
The reason they were able to sail far away was because Bai Yutang found Lu Sen and "borrowed" a treasure ship.
The treasure ship built by Lu Sen is very easy to use. Not only is it large in size, but even when encountering strong winds and waves, the hull will not tilt too much. The only drawback is that it requires a lot of manpower.
But the Five Rats are all quite rich, so it is easy for them to recruit people. At most, they can set a high settling-in fee.
Only then can they sail far away to explore and broaden their horizons like Bao Zheng.
Bai Yutang was not sentimental and took out the wood carving in the shape of a "white snake" from the five wood carvings.
He then bit off his right hand with his teeth, ignoring the piercing pain and smearing the blood on it.
The other four mice also chose the wood carvings that they liked and did the same thing.
Five colorful lights flashed briefly, and the five people in the room were wearing armor of different shapes. The brothers looked at each other for a while and laughed at the same time.
It's very gratifying.
While the Five Rats were happy, Lu Sen came to the backyard of the Hangzhou City Government Office and met Zhao Zongchu.
Zhao Zongchu was having a tryst with a daughter of a wealthy family in Hangzhou. When he heard that Lu Sen was coming, he immediately went out to greet him without caring about the pretty young lady.
"Brother-in-law, why are you free to come to my place again? Come in and have a seat."
"Well, there are things I want to talk to you about."
Lu Sen entered the backyard and found a young woman sitting in the pavilion with her back to them, as if she didn't want to disturb the men's conversation .
Lu Sen ignored her and put the small bag in his hand on the table. He smiled and said, "If you have time, help me send this to the capital and give it to Taishan, and then let him present it to the young official."
"What's inside?" Zhao Zongchu was full of curiosity. In his opinion, the things his brother-in-law took out must be good.
"It can produce more than 1,000 kilograms per mu." Lu Sen said with a smile: "The most amazing thing is... it can be saved for seeds. Unlike fairy rice, the seeds will not degenerate. The seeds can be saved and cultivated continuously without affecting the harvest in the future."
The fairy rice in the eyes of the people of the Song Dynasty is actually a kind of hybrid rice.
Such crops can only be planted once, because their seeds will degenerate rapidly until they are indistinguishable from ordinary seeds.
Zhao Zongchu was extremely surprised when he heard this. He immediately opened the bag and took out the sweet potato that was still covered with dirt. He rubbed it repeatedly in his hands for a while and asked, "Does this grain have a name?"
"Potato." Lu Sen smiled faintly.
"Where does the name come from?" Zhao Zongchu felt that the name was very familiar.
Lu Sen said, "It was brought back from overseas by a friend named Jinmaoshu Bai Yutang. Because this thing is a kind of sweet potato, we named it Jinmaoshu."
Zhao Zongchu laughed, then his face straightened and he said, "Brother-in-law, leave this matter to me, there will be no problems."
In fact, if Lu Sen was willing, he could deliver the things to Bian Jing himself, which would be faster.
But he didn't want to see that group of officials in the capital again. If he really met them, he would feel extremely uncomfortable.

After that, Lu Sengeng left.
Zhao Zongchu personally led the constables and his own family soldiers northward, and even mobilized a large number of constables from the Haifang Division for this purpose. A total of more than 200 people boarded the ship, divided into more than a dozen ships, and sailed northward along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to deliver the gifts to his master.
After eight days of traveling by water, Zhao Zongchu met his father, the Prince of Runan.
"Why did you come back when you were not in Hangzhou, helping your sister and brother-in-law?" The Prince of Runan asked unhappily while practicing calligraphy.
"Dad, my brother-in-law thought I had brought back a treasure for you, and then asked you to present it to my brother... the official family."
"What is it?" Hearing that it was something sent by Lu Sen, the Prince of Runan became interested and put down the wolf hair brush in his hand.
"My brother-in-law said that this is a kind of mortal grain that can produce more than a thousand kilograms per mu." Zhao Zongchu paused and then said, "My brother-in-law instructed a civilian knight to sail a thousand miles to get it back from the Far East."
"Any seed?" The Prince of Runan was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "The kind that can be saved for seeds and then cultivated?"
Zhao Zongchu nodded repeatedly: "Brother-in-law is really amazing."
"Oh my." The Prince of Runan clapped his hands heavily and said, "This is not a good thing. It is very likely that your brother-in-law does not want to care about the secular world anymore."
Zhao Zongchu was stunned for a moment, but after thinking carefully, he understood what the Prince of Runan meant.
"No way, brother-in-law really plans to ignore us?"
"Otherwise, why would he ask someone to bring back a common seed? He wants the people to be able to support themselves." The Prince of Runan paced in the study room a little irritably. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He said, "Hurry up and ask someone to invite Master Pang to come over. Tell him that I have something urgent to discuss with you."
Zhao Zongchu immediately left the study and went to find the old butler.
Not long after, Master Pang arrived in a hurry. As soon as he entered the study, he said, "Grand Emperor, you called me here in such a hurry. What's the important matter?"
The term 'Grand Emperor' was meant as a joke but also as a sign of intimacy.
The Prince of Runan was so anxious that he waved his hands: "Don't make a fuss, this is a big deal."
He then told the story again.
Master Pang picked up the sweet potato in the bag and looked at it for a while, then sighed, "The difference between immortals and mortals is inevitable. It's only a matter of time. Why can't you see it clearly, Your Majesty?"
"Shu'er is still young and can't handle the overall situation." The Prince of Runan felt his throat burning with anger and said, "If Sen'er hadn't backed him up, I don't know how the officials in the court would have bullied him."
Although Zhao Shu is the son of Zhao Yunrang, his personality is somewhat similar to Zhao Zhen.
The same kindness, the same tolerance and generosity.
Such a character...can be easily manipulated by civil officials.
Although Bao Zheng is gone, there are more powerful people like Wang Anshi and Su Shi among the younger generation.
The two of them were also outspoken in the court, and countless people were made speechless and face turned pale by their words.
