“Well, this sweet potato porridge tastes good.”
“It’s enough to call it a delicacy of the world.”
“However, the yield of such a delicious thing must not be very high.”
“………”
After eating this full bowl of sweet potato porridge.
Even the right minister Shang Martingale, who is quite serious on weekdays, couldn’t help but nod his head at this moment and said with satisfaction.
It’s a whole new taste.
Heard the words of the martingale.
Yinghong and Yingtu looked at each other, as if they didn’t know what to say.
Indeed, the better the food, the more precious it is in general.
But this truth obviously cannot be applied to sweet potatoes, which are one of the high-yield crops that the young master has come up with, which has a strong adaptability, and the yield is almost completely inexhaustible.
In the Great Qin Empire.
Being able to fill your stomach is a very happy thing.
The first thing that people consider is how to fill their stomachs, and only after they have a certain status will they consider improving their quality of life and eating better.
It’s nice to be able to add one or two vegetarian dishes once in a while.
As for eating meat.
Only during the New Year, can you barely taste the meat.
It is simply not comparable to the superior environment of later generations, which are rich in materials, and it can be said that they eat meat until they vomit.
So.
Something that seems commonplace to Yun Che and others.
In the eyes of Qin Shi Huang, the right minister Shang Martingale, and the killing god Bai Qi are very valuable things.
“Back to Your Majesty, in fact, the high yield of sweet potatoes is completely inexhaustible.”
“And this kind of thing-situation?”
“That’s right, with the management in place, the yield of sweet potatoes per mu can even exceed 10,000 catties, that is, about 80 stone.”
“There are eighty stones?!”
Hear this staggering number.
Not only Qin Shi Huang Yun Zheng, but even the right minister Shang Martingale and the killing god Bai Qi were stunned.
They may not be very good at cultivating the fields.
But.
In a high position.
For a country, they still know a little about the very important food production.
In the Great Qin Empire, corn was generally the main food.
Ordinary corn, able to produce two stones per mu, is already a bumper harvest, as for the yield of Yinghong and Yingdu.
That’s something I can’t even think about.
“Sweet potato, big as a fist, vermilion skin, crispy and juicy.”
“Cooked and edible, extremely high yield, adapted to barren land.”
“Moisturizing and edible, or boiled or ground into powder, raw food like arrowroot, cooked food like honey, taste like water chestnuts.”
“Roots can not only be used as a staple food, but also can be used to make wine, and the roots and leaves are also excellent feed.”
“………”
Yinghong said.
When it comes to the benefits of sweet potatoes, he gushes endlessly.
Merely.
Because the yield of sweet potatoes is too high, coupled with the side effects of eating too much and ‘farting’, and the taste of other high-yield staple foods is also good, so over time, sweet potatoes become not eaten by everyone.
Because, there is so much food that you can’t eat.
Or stored in the cellar, or stored in the cave, or stored in the granary.
It is sealed by special means – and can be sealed for at least ten years to ensure that the food does not deteriorate.
As for ordinary sweet potatoes, even sweet potato porridge.
Dogs don’t eat.
However, if it is cooked into a delicious ‘snack’, it is still quite popular.
“Really?!” Qin Shi Huang looked a little incredulous, “The taste is so delicious, and it can maintain such a high yield, it sounds – it really – it is a little unreal.” ”
It tastes good.
The yield per acre is as high as 80 stone.
These two advantages alone have been able to destroy all the crops of the Six Great Empires in the Central Plains today.
In this day and age, being able to eat a full stomach is a happy thing – love.
So.
Regardless of taste.
The yield of 80 stones per mu symbolizes that everyone almost never needs to go hungry, and Qin Shi Huang can also recruit new soldiers in a big way, directly expanding the original 1.2 million troops of the Great Qin Empire to 2 million.
You know, an ordinary Great Qin pawn.
It consumes about five stones (600 kilograms) of grain a year.
Originally, it took about two and a half acres of good land to be able to maintain the expenses of an ordinary Great Qin pawn.
Now, only one acre of good land is needed to maintain the expenses of sixteen Great Qin soldiers.
Among the gaps.
Just thinking about it is incredible.
“Don’t you dare to commit the crime of bullying the monarch in Xia, this high-yield crop was brought back by the Ninth Prince from the land of the Western Regions, and it is now being cultivated.”
“In addition, there are high-yield crops such as corn, potatoes, and hybrid rice.”
“Maybe the yield per acre of land is not as good as sweet potatoes, but it is better than a variety of nutrients, which makes it easier to feel full.”
“……….”
Hear Yinghong’s introduction.
The eyes of Qin Shi Huang Yun Zheng also exploded – emitting a ‘wolf-like tiger’ light.
Didn’t expect it.
Che’er is silent.
It solved the financial problem of the Great Qin Empire, and now it has solved the problem of insufficient food in the Great Qin Empire, even if there is no ready-made food, but just bring some high-yield crop seeds back and sow them.
Waiting until the harvest day in autumn, the grain of the Great Qin Empire’s expedition to other empires is definitely more than enough!
The whole country sows together.
That must be unrealistic.
Because, the Great Qin Empire has not yet completely unified the great cause, and there are still five great empires outside.
If this method of nationwide sowing is adopted, I am afraid that it will not be long before these high-yield crops appear on the territory of enemy countries.
So.
Only a few important places are selected for sowing.
Priority is given to food for the army.
When the Great Qin Empire lands in the world, this valuable grain seed can be allowed to spread all over the world.
“The seeds of these crops-”
“Returning to Your Majesty, in terms of seeds, the young master has prepared in advance.”
Yinghong said.
Since Qin Shi Huang Yun Zheng came to Taoyuan Zhuang.
Then, there must be all kinds of peculiar crops, and their yields will not be hidden at that time, so before leaving, Yun Che simply instructed the Seven Swords Organization to prepare some seeds of high-yield crops in advance to deal with the next one to the Father Emperor.
Anyway, there will be no nationwide sowing in a short time, some seeds will suffice.
As long as you don’t touch the grain stored in the valley, granary, cellar as ‘private money’, then it is okay.
These grains.
Yun Che is intended as the last hidden material.
Wait until the time when the Great Qin Empire is in a critical situation, when there is a real shortage of food, of course, Yun Che hopes that this day will not come as much as possible, because that is not good news.
