Yongle period.
Zhu Di’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the yield of this corn is much less than that of hybrid rice, it is still very precious to today’s Ming Dynasty!
“We must get this corn!” Zhu Di said secretly in his heart.
Other dynasties were also shocked.
“The Ming Dynasty actually had such a good thing?”
“I am bound to get this corn!”
In the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and was ambitious!
Da Qin.
Zulong couldn’t hold himself any longer.
In terms of grain output, the output of Da Qin was the lowest. This thing may not be so attractive to future emperors.
But to him, this is a huge treasure!
“Where’s Xu Fu?”
“Summon!”
“I have something important to do!”
The First Emperor waved his hand and stared at the sky with his eyes.
Song Dynasty.
Zhao Kuangyin also cursed, “The so-called Emperor Jiajing actually regards such a good thing as a handicraft!”
“What a waste of resources!”
“According to what Tianmu said, this good thing is overseas? The so-called Philippines!”
“Then I don’t know if it’s too late to form a navy now.”
For a time, the major dynasties were shocked.
[Compared to corn, sweet potatoes were introduced later, probably during the Wanli period and were introduced to the Ming Dynasty! 】
[It is worth mentioning that sweet potatoes were also introduced to the Philippines from the Americas, and then Ming merchants went to great lengths to introduce them from the Philippines to China! 】
[There are more detailed records about sweet potatoes. At that time, there was a businessman in Fujian named Chen Zhenlong. The Chen family has been in business for generations! 】
[When Chen Zhenlong was in the Philippines, he accidentally ate sweet potatoes. He thought they were not only delicious, but also anti-hungry. When he learned that the yield of sweet potatoes per acre was several thousand kilograms, he thought of the starving people in the Ming Dynasty! 】
[So he spent a lot of money to bring sweet potatoes back to the Ming Dynasty, but unfortunately, the Philippines also realized the value of sweet potatoes, so all merchants going overseas would check them carefully! 】
[After two severe beatings, Chen Zhenlong was still unwilling to give in, so he coated the sweet potato vines with mud and disguised them as absorbent ropes. This deceived the Filipino soldiers, so the sweet potatoes were introduced to China! 】
[Nowadays, sweet potatoes are also one of the main foods in our country, and the yield per mu is as high as 6,000 kilograms. Baked sweet potatoes were once popular all over the world! 】
boom!
At this moment, all the emperors were not calm.
How many?
The yield per mu is six thousand catties?
Six thousand pounds?
hiss!
All the emperors could not sit still.
Da Qin.
The First Emperor couldn’t hold himself any longer.
“The yield per mu is six thousand catties, that’s six thousand catties!”
“This, this is so special!”
“No wonder the population during the heyday of Kangxi and Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty exceeded 100 million. How dare we have this kind of food!”
Big man.
Liu Che also felt hot in his heart.
“Where’s Zhang Qian?”
“Where’s Zhang Qian!!!”
“I want the Western Region, but he also has to go to this sea!”
“We must get these sweet potatoes!”
Ming Dynasty.
Everyone exploded.
Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes were already blood red.
Even Prince Zhu Biao was short of breath.
“My Ming Dynasty still has such a treasure?”
“Philippines, check, check hard for me!”
“This Philippines is really damned. They are still hiding this treasure and even beating up my Ming merchants for fear that the news will spread to our Ming Dynasty!”
“I want to know where the Philippines is in the Ming Dynasty as quickly as possible. With these sweet potatoes, no one in the Ming Dynasty will starve to death!”
“We are bound to get these sweet potatoes!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was breathing rapidly and was filled with murderous intent.
Zhu Di was also crazy.
This yield!
Even scarier than hybrid rice!
The yield per mu is six thousand kilograms. Even if a natural disaster comes, what will happen?
Chongzhen period.
Chongzhen looked at the sky with wide eyes.
He couldn’t help but burst into tears, “Oh my god, why do you let me know about such a divine thing now?”
“If I had promoted this sweet potato earlier, why would there be so many refugees in the world? How could Li Zicheng gather hundreds of thousands of troops in a few months?”
But now Li Zicheng has reached outside Beijing.
Even if he knew that there was such a magical thing, he still couldn’t recover!
However, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, was it really just destruction caused by refugees and natural disasters?
Li Zicheng was also shocked.
He was a little lucky.
Fortunately, Ming Dynasty did not promote corn and sweet potatoes, otherwise how could it be so easy for him to fight?
But Chi Ze changed. He quickly pulled out his sword and pointed in the direction of Beijing City. “Brothers, kill me!”
“Kill Emperor Chongzhen and let us fully plant corn and sweet potatoes. By then, no one will starve to death in the world!”
In an instant, the eyes of countless soldiers turned red.
“kill!”
“kill!”
“kill!”
Qing.
Qianlong was also shocked.Now corn and sweet potatoes have indeed been gradually promoted.
The yield is indeed not bad!
But it is far from reaching the yield of 6,000 kilograms per mu!
If he could produce six thousand kilograms per acre, then he was not a fool and would have promoted it vigorously.
“The sky is fake, the sky is fake!”
“How can there be so much output?”
“If sweet potatoes are so abundant, why won’t they be the staple food for future generations?”
Qianlong snorted coldly and questioned!
He even made a comment on the Wanchao chat channel.
For a time, many emperors all looked over.
But Ji Xiaolan said from the side, “Your Majesty, this is wrong. After all, they are separated by hundreds of years. The planting methods and varieties may be a big factor.”
“It could also be storage or other issues!”
“But since sweet potatoes have such potential, please give me an edict to vigorously promote sweet potatoes and corn!”
Qianlong looked at the sky with twinkling eyes.
Gao Yang clicked on the comment area.
One comment after another came into view.
[Sweet potatoes still cannot be used as a staple food. They contain saddle acid. Eating them on an empty stomach will irritate the stomach and cause heartburn. Secondly, they are not easy to store. They will sprout at room temperature and become bitter when exposed to cold. The planting conditions are not very good. It is best to use sandy potatoes. The temperature difference between day and night is large, and you must take one year off after three years of planting, otherwise the yield will be greatly reduced! 】
[Five pounds of sweet potatoes and six pounds of feces, I can’t stop looking back! 】
[I laughed to death upstairs, but this thing is indeed like this. The nutritional value is not very high, but in ancient times, this thing would be a killer. However, in ancient planting methods, there are also problems with fertilizers and breeding, and the output is estimated to be greatly reduced! 】
[That makes sense, but I don’t think it’s a problem if it’s hundreds or thousands of pounds. Besides, a lot of people in ancient times starved to death. Are you talking to me about nutrition? 】
[If you, Sweet Potato, take over, I, Potato, will be the first to refuse! 】
[The potato army is coming, potatoes are the good stuff, a must-have artifact for time travel novels! 】
All the emperors looked at the comments with astonishment.
Even Kangxi and Qianlong had doubts and answers.
But these shortcomings cannot stop the passion in the hearts of many emperors!
As the comments say,
If the people don’t have enough to eat and are about to starve to death, then what’s the nutritional value?
And he poops a lot, so what?
People can eat sweet potatoes when the weather is bad, and feed their feces to dogs. When the dogs grow up, they can eat dog meat to supplement their nutrition. This cycle, isn’t it wonderful?
Even more extreme, people…
Besides, the yield per mu is six thousand kilograms. Even if the yield is reduced, how much can it be reduced?
A thousand pounds is an astronomical figure!
But what are potatoes?
Why does it sound worse than sweet potatoes?
The barrage then appeared.
[The Philippines should have been called Luzon in ancient times. It is a small country. Corn and sweet potatoes were both introduced from Luzon. 】
[Potatoes are also a product of the Age of Discovery. They were introduced in the late Ming Dynasty. This thing is indeed a big killer. Even if it was planted casually in ancient times, it could yield two thousand kilograms per mu. If I remember correctly, the yield per mu of the peak experimental field is, It has already broken through 20,000 kilograms! 】
[If I were to travel back in time as an ancient emperor, I would definitely build a navy, go to Luzon first, conquer Luzon, and then use it as a base to explore American routes and look for potatoes. If I find potatoes, it would be great. ! 】
[Brothers upstairs, don’t forget, even if you find potatoes, you have to detoxify them. This thing is a little complicated, but it’s not difficult. The top is the least poisonous. You can find fertile soil for the culture solution, boil it with water and filter it. , can also be used as a culture medium! 】
boom!
These barrages appeared at the same time.
The King of Luzon, as well as a group of ministers and soldiers, all seemed to have been hit hard.
They all looked up at the sky, and those comments were like a stab in their hearts!
From corn and sweet potatoes, they felt something was wrong.
Damn, that sounds too similar.
But fortunately the sky is talking about the Philippines. What does this have to do with Luzon?
But I never expected that it would be exposed in the comment section!
The King of Luzon looked dull, and his mind was severely shaken. He just felt…
“The sky is falling!”
