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

Chapter 583 Yuchi Huan Uses Corn Fishing

Wu Meiniang also followed Yuchi Huan with a smile on her face.

But Wu Meiniang's attention is more on those plump corn cobs!
If there were no outsiders here, Wu Meiniang would have gnawed on a piece of corn long ago.

"Ahem...Xu Jingzong, I'm here today to inspect Shanglinyuan's farmland, and take a look at the corn production of the Royal Farm by the way!"

Yu Chihuan thought for a while, and immediately told Xu Jingzong the purpose of his trip.

Xu Jingzong suddenly realized: "Little Prime Minister Yuchi, so far, my subordinates have harvested [-] mu of corn fields, and a total of [-] shi of corn cobs have been harvested!"

Wu Meiniang didn't expect the yield of corn to be so high, she was dumbfounded and said, "Teacher, the yield of corn is not much worse than that of sweet potatoes!"

Yu Chihuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Meiniang, the yield of an acre of corn is definitely not worse than that of sweet potatoes, but if it is dried and threshed, the yield of corn will shrink greatly!"

Wu Meiniang suddenly realized: "The teacher is right, if potatoes and sweet potatoes are dried, they will shrink by more than five times!"

Xu Jingzong admired it, and said: "What Wu Meiniang said is true, one mu of cornfield can harvest about ten stones of corn kernels!"

Wu Meiniang was recognized by Xu Jingzong, and immediately raised her small head with a triumphant expression.

Yu Chihuan then waved and said, "Xu Jingzong, take us to the cornfield!"

"Subordinate to obey!"

Xu Jingzong didn't dare to neglect, he immediately led the way.

Yu Chihuan then took Wu Meiniang to the cornfield.

When Wu Meiniang arrived at the Royal Farm, she looked around. She was very interested in the lush potato fields and sweet potato fields!
When passing a potato field, Wu Meiniang was even more eager to try: "Teacher, can students dig potatoes and eat them?"

"Meiniang, if you want to eat potatoes, the teacher will give you a stone when you get back!"

Yu Chihuan was speechless, Wu Meiniang had just had a full meal, since she wanted to eat the small potatoes in the potato field!

Wu Meiniang smiled sweetly and said, "Teacher, the students think that the potatoes they dug with their own hands are delicious!"

Yu Chihuan smiled wryly and said: "Meiniang, as a teacher, I will accompany you to dig some potatoes and take them home to eat!"

After all, Yu Chihuan just dug potatoes with bare hands!

Wu Meiniang followed suit, digging potatoes in the potato field.

Soon, Yuchihuan and Wu Meiniang each dug out a potato seedling.

There are dozens of potatoes growing from one potato seedling.

But most of them are small potatoes, less than a fifth of the large potatoes!

But the yield of a single potato is also very impressive!
Yuchihuan conservatively estimated that one potato seedling can harvest at least one liter of potatoes!

This is still the output of potato seedlings that have not yet fully matured!
If you wait until the potato seedlings are mature before digging potatoes, the yield will double!
Seeing Yuchi Huan digging potatoes with bare hands, Xu Jingzong was shocked and said: "Prime Minister Yuchi, I have a hoe here, you can use it to dig potatoes!"

Yu Chihuan shook his head and said, "Xu Jingzong, it's childlike to dig potatoes with bare hands haha!"

Xu Jingzong was speechless, so he had no choice but to give up!
Yu Chihuan and Wu Meiniang dug dozens of potato seedlings in succession before giving up.

The potatoes they dug up were also packed by Xu Jingzong's people and loaded into the Wu family's carriage.

Yuchihuan then took Wu Meiniang to the sweet potato field to do harm.

Since the yield of sweet potatoes is more than that of potatoes!
So Yuchihuan and Wu Meiniang only dug up twenty sweet potato seedlings and filled a bucket!

This bucket of sweet potatoes was also transported to the Wujia carriage by people sent by Xu Jingzong.

As for Yuchihuan, there are many potatoes and sweet potatoes in his system space, so he didn't compete with Wu Meiniang for these sweet potatoes and potatoes!

The Wu family only returned to Datang this year, so the Wu family has no arable land in Gyeonggi-do!

If Wu Meiniang wanted to eat sweet potatoes and potatoes, she could only go to the East Market to buy them.

It is for this reason that Wu Meiniang is very keen on digging potatoes and sweet potatoes.

When she arrived at the cornfield, Wu Meiniang immediately turned into a foodie, grabbing a piece of freshly picked corn with both hands and chewing on it.

The golden corn kernels are full and there is a lot of syrup inside.

Wu Meiniang smiled happily while eating the sweet and delicious corn.

Yuchihuan was already tired of eating corn, so he was not interested in the corn cobs in the cornfield!
After Wu Meiniang finished eating a piece of corn, she said with satisfaction: "Teacher, these fresh corns are so delicious!"

"Meiniang, if you like corn, eat more!"

Yuchihuan nodded.

"Students obey!"

So Wu Meiniang picked another piece of corn and began to bite.

When Xu Jingzong saw that Wu Meiniang had a special liking for corn, he immediately ordered his subordinates to send a stone of corn to Wu's carriage.

This time Wu Meiniang came to Shanglinyuan Royal Farm and harvested sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn, and it was not in vain.

After Wu Meiniang was full, she was motivated to help the peasants of the Royal Farm pick corn.

Yuchihuan is also diligently picking corn!
Those corn stalks that had been picked were cut off and collected by people sent by Xu Jingzong!
There is a lack of firewood in Guanzhong!

So these corn stalks can be used for cooking after drying, killing two birds with one stone!
In the afternoon, Yu Chihuan, Wu Meiniang and the others finished picking an acre of cornfield before giving up!
Yuchihuan then took Wu Meiniang to go fishing on the bank of the Bahe River!

Xu Jingzong dug some earthworms and used them as bait for Yuchihuan, but Yuchihuan refused.

Yuchihuan decided to fish with corn kernels today!

Xu Jingzong asked curiously: "Young Prime Minister Yuchi, can fish eat corn kernels?"

Yu Chihuan said confidently: "Xu Jingzong, both grass carp and carp like to eat corn kernels!"

"I see!"

Xu Jingzong suddenly realized and nodded.

Wu Meiniang also stood curiously on the bank of the Bahe River watching Yuchihuan go fishing.

At first, no fish came to eat the bait!
Even some big black fish and crucian carp in the bottom of the water turned a blind eye to the corn kernels!
But when a grass carp passes the corn kernels, it immediately bites the bait!

The float immediately sank into the water violently!

Whoa!
Yuchihuan was surprised and delighted, and immediately raised the pole, pulling a thick-thighed grass carp out of the Bahe River in an instant!
Bang!
The next moment, the big grass carp was thrown ashore by Yuchihuan.

Wu Meiniang stared at the bouncing big grass carp, and said in surprise and joy: "Since the teacher has used corn kernels to adjust the big grass carp!"

Xu Jingzong said convincedly: "Young Prime Minister Yuchi really didn't deceive me!"

No one has ever caught fish with corn kernels!

Xu Jingzong was an eye-opener today!
Yuchihuan then unhooked the fishhook, smiled and said, "Meiniang, I'll give you this big grass carp to take home and eat!"

"Thank you, teacher!"

Wu Meiniang smiled sweetly, and immediately ordered the groom of the Wu family to come and pick up the fish!
Next, Yuchihuan caught more than a dozen carp and grass carp in a row!
Most of these catches were released by Yuchihuan, and he only wanted a big herring to take home!
In the afternoon, it was getting late, and Yu Chihuan had to bid farewell to Xu Jingzong and go home!

Xu Jingzong brought Yuchi Huan to the carriage in person with the servants of the Shaofu Yamen!
creak!creak!
After a while, Yu Chihuan and Wu Meiniang returned to Chang'an City in their respective carriages.

Xu Jingzong needs to stay in Shanglin Garden to harvest corn, so he can only stay at the Royal Farm today.
