Datang: An eight-year-old master of the bar, he gave everyone a blow at the beginning

Chapter 314 Zhongzhou Potato and Sweet Potato Harvest

Yuchi Huan sent away the civil and military officials of Xi County and summoned Chu Suiliang.

Chu Suiliang didn't dare to neglect, and immediately came to Yuchihuan to obey his orders.

Liu Rengui, Cheng Chumo, and Xue Rengui are all Zhongzhou military generals, so they are also listed.

Yu Chihuan cut to the chase and said, "Chu Suiliang, take someone to dig the sweet potatoes and potatoes in Zhongzhou tomorrow!"

"Subordinate to obey!"

Chu Suiliang took the order without hesitation.

At present, Zhongzhou has planted a total of [-] acres of sweet potatoes and [-] acres of potatoes!

If there is no accident, the Zhongzhou Dudu Mansion can harvest more than 20 shi of grain this time.

This is a very important achievement for Yuchihuan.

Yu Chihuan then turned to Liu Rengui: "Liu Rengui, the Zhongzhou Navy now has [-] sailors, of which [-] sailors are transferred from other states. If you train more in normal times, you will bleed less during wars. Do you understand?"

Liu Rengui cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Lieutenant Commander Yuchi, I will ensure that those bastards of the Zhongzhou Navy will not be left idle!"

Yuchihuan smiled and said, "Liu Rengui, with your words, I feel relieved!"

In history, Liu Rengui relied on his military merits to become the prime minister, and Yu Chihuan had high hopes for Liu Rengui.

Chu Suiliang also has the talent of a prime minister, but his position as a prime minister in history was very short-lived, not as good as Liu Rengui.

Yuchihuan heaved a sigh of relief after arranging Zhongzhou's farming and military preparations.

Cheng Chumo and Xue Rengui are Yuchihuan's personal bodyguards, so Yuchihuan does not need to arrange military affairs for them.

"Everyone is gone!"

Yu Chihuan then sent Chu Suiliang and Liu Rengui away!

"Subordinate to obey!"

Liu Rengui and Chu Suiliang led the order to leave Zhongzhou Dudu's Mansion with one voice.

After Chu Suiliang left the Zhongzhou Dudufu, he went to the Xixian county government to arrange farming work for digging potatoes and sweet potatoes tomorrow!
Liu Rengui went directly to the Zhongzhou Navy. As soon as he returned to the Wuya Ship, he ordered the sailors to light the navigation lights and practice night battles on the water!

The Zhongzhou Navy's night battle training consumes a lot of fuel.

Today, the fuel for five-tooth ships is mainly oil.

The Yulin City Oil Refining Workshop is the property of the Zhongzhou Governor's Mansion, so the Zhongzhou Navy is not afraid of consuming oil during night training!
That night, Yu Chihuan fell asleep after washing.

Xue Rengui was stationed outside Yuchihuan gate as usual.

Cheng Chumo and his family will sleep together, and they are responsible for protecting the periphery of Yuchi Ring.

……

Early the next morning, Yu Chihuan took Chu Suiliang, Cheng Chumo, Xue Rengui and the others to the Bauhinia Mountain Coal Mine to inspect!

When he arrived at the Bauhinia Mountains, Yuchihuan found that the craftsmen here were very busy.

Baskets of dark coal were carried by the miners to the official carriages for loading!

Most of these miners were Yellow River bandits captured by the Zhongzhou Navy.

Now that the water bandits have undergone a transformation, they are now willing to make money with their hands.

After inspecting the coal mines in the Bauhinia Mountains, Yu Chihuan went to see the iron-making workshop outside Xi County.

The iron-making workshop has now been remodeled, and the output has increased, Yuchihuan is very satisfied.

Among them, the pile of coal ash next to the iron-making workshop also attracted Yuchihuan's attention.

"Chu Suiliang, Zhongzhou will also build a cement workshop in the future. These coal ash are the best raw materials for cement!"

Yu Chihuan then issued an order to Chu Suiliang.

"Yes!" After Chu Suiliang finished speaking, he took Yuchihuan to visit the nearby farmland.

Xi County has many mountains and little flat land, so these farmlands are suitable for planting drought-tolerant crops.

Sweet potatoes and potatoes are now the main crops in these mountain fields.

Half an hour later, Yuchihuan arrived at the foot of a mountain filled with terraced fields!

The terraced fields on the mountain spread to the top of the mountain like waves, which looks very spectacular.

The sweet potatoes grown in the terraced fields are lush and growing very well.

Yuchi Huan saw this and was immediately elated!

Sure enough, Chu Suiliang lived up to his expectations and took good care of the sweet potato fields in Zhongzhou.

"Little Governor Yuchi, there are currently [-] acres of sweet potatoes and [-] acres of potatoes planted here!"

Chu Suiliang pointed to the terraced fields in front of him and explained!

Yu Chihuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Chu Suiliang, you can dig sweet potatoes and potatoes now!"

"The next officer will arrange it immediately!"

After Chu Suiliang finished speaking, he went to a nearby farm to call for help digging sweet potatoes.

When Chu Suiliang appeared again, thousands of farmers followed behind him.

These farmers are all local people in Xi County. They were notified by the local government officials last night to come to Xi County to dig sweet potatoes today!
Chu Suiliang then ordered the yamen servants to take these common people to dig sweet potatoes.

In a short while, tens of thousands of ordinary people, carrying hoes and carrying baskets, went up the mountain to dig sweet potatoes and potatoes under the leadership of the yamen servants!
Yu Chihuan was not idle either, he also led Cheng Chumo and Xue Rengui to dig the bottom sweet potato terrace.

This terraced field is exactly one mu of land.

Yuchihuan brandished a hoe to dig sweet potatoes.

When the red-skinned sweet potatoes are dug up one by one, family members will come forward to pick them up immediately.

Xue Rengui, Cheng Chumo and the others were not far behind, and went all out to dig sweet potatoes.

Half an hour later, Yuchi Huan and the others finally finished digging an acre of terraced fields.

Chu Suiliang immediately took the harvested sweet potatoes to weigh!
After half a stick of incense, the yield of sweet potatoes on one mu of land finally came out.

"Little Governor Yuchi, the total output of the one-acre sweet potato field we dug today is 51 shi!"

Chu Suiliang excitedly said: "It is estimated that [-] stones of sweet potatoes can be dug out of a thousand acres of sweet potatoes here!"

Yu Chihuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "It looks like we can harvest 25 shi of sweet potatoes this season!"

Chu Suiliang echoed: "Little Governor Yuchi's words are true. We have planted 20 mu of sweet potatoes in Zhongzhou, and we can indeed harvest more than [-] shi of sweet potatoes!"

Yuchi Huan still had something to say, "Cheng Chumo, let's continue digging other sweet potato fields!"

Cheng Chumo once again carried the hoe to dig the sweet potato field next to him.

Xue Rengui and Chu Suiliang were not idle either, they were also digging sweet potatoes.

At noon, the sweet potato and potato fields of the entire terraced fields were finally dug.

A total of [-] shi of sweet potatoes and [-] shi of potatoes were dug out from this mountain, and a total of [-] shi of grain was harvested!
The local civil and military officials in Xixian County were stunned. They did not expect the yield of sweet potatoes and potatoes to be so high per mu.

That afternoon, Yu Chihuan took Chu Suiliang and the others to dig sweet potatoes and potatoes grown elsewhere.

At the same time, other counties in Zhongzhou also began to organize manual excavation of sweet potato fields and potato fields.

By evening, all the sweet potato fields and potato fields in Zhongzhou had been dug up.

Chu Suiliang then reported the production of sweet potatoes and potatoes in the six counties of Zhongzhou to Yuchi Huan Ting!

"Little Governor Yuchi, this time we in Zhongzhou have harvested a total of 25 shi of sweet potatoes and [-] shi of potatoes!"

Chu Suiliang was very emotional, because Zhongzhou had a high grain yield, and he also had political achievements!

"Chu Suiliang, we will replant sweet potatoes and potatoes tomorrow!"

Yuchihuan said confidently: "This time we will plant 50 mu of sweet potatoes and potato fields!"

"Yes!"

Chu Suiliang then left the Zhongzhou Dudu Mansion to make arrangements for sowing sweet potatoes and potatoes tomorrow.
