In fact, this is the reaction of starch with amylase in saliva to produce maltose, which will naturally have a sweet taste.

However, few people will eat potatoes raw, because potatoes contain too much starch, but it has not been broken by high temperature, and the human body is not easy to absorb.

Shi Huang ate very happily. The sweetness of potatoes was accompanied by the fragrance of earth and plants.

Although the taste is a bit weird, it is enough to fight hunger.

Moreover, the yield of this potato is still so high.

Shi Huang kept staring at the dozen or so green plants of potatoes, and the more he thought about it, the more surprised he became.

It turns out that the thing that can solve the famine problem in the Great Qin Dynasty is not rice, but potatoes in front of us.

Although the output of rice can reach more than 2000 catties, it also provides rich nutrition for the human body.

And just now he also saw that there is a river next to the rice, which means that the growing environment of rice is more harsh, not only water but also a place with good soil.

Although there are many places in Daqin that meet the conditions for growing rice, the annual output of these rice is not enough to keep the people of Daqin from starvation.

Potatoes are different. The planting conditions are arbitrary. Even places with insufficient sunlight and little water can produce many fruits.

At most, there is a difference in the number of fruits.

What if you add farm food?The soil in the first two years must be very fertile, so the potato production must be a lot.

This kind of food can solve the Great Qin famine.

It only takes one year to feed the people, no wonder, no wonder Xiao Twelve doesn't want outsiders to know.

If other people find out about this, someone will definitely make trouble.

No wonder Dong Zhongshu nodded and shook his head that day, nodding because I guessed right, and shaking his head because I guessed wrong, and the wrong guess was the quantity.

But it's not my fault!

Qin Su's highest yield is only [-] catties per mu. How can you be sure that there is such a high yield of grain?

As the lord of the world, I have been sending people to look for grains with higher yields that can replace Qin Su for decades, but nothing has been harvested.

How could it be possible to believe that there are [-] rice per mu in the world?

And this rice is so good, it not only fights hunger, but also provides the nutrition needed by the human body, nourishing and nourishing the stomach.

This thing is better than the pills I ate!

I couldn't believe it for a while, and it should be.

When I thought that rice was the best solution to the famine problem in the Great Qin Dynasty, potatoes with a yield of [-] catties per mu appeared, which is really unimaginable.

Then Dong Zhongshu will definitely laugh at me, laughing at me for not seeing the world.

Also said that the Twelve Young Masters are gods descending to earth, the strongest in the world, obviously even more powerful than this, okay?

Little Twelve's ability really shocked people.

Then Dong Zhongshu must be laughing at me. If I were an ordinary person in Daqin, it would be fine. If you laugh at me, just laugh at me.

But I am the king of Qin, the lord of the world, and I will return to the throne in a short time. How can I face civil and military officials?

How to face Little Twelve, how to face that Dong Zhongshu?

Thinking of this, Shihuang's hatred for Dong Zhongshu increased even more.

No, I have to calm down and think about it!

"Alas!"

Shihuang let out a foul breath.

Not as excited as before, he turned his head to look at the whole mountain and the rice under the mountain.

Suddenly found a problem, why is such a good food not sent more people to guard it?

If the remnants of the Six Kingdoms see this grain, they will definitely come over and destroy it.

This little twelve is still young, so he is not careful at all.

When I look back, I will ask Wang Jian to order [-] troops to guard this piece of food. It must be surrounded tightly.

In fact, Shi Huang thought too much.

It was Wang Ben who led people to guard the place before, and now two months have passed, and the special seeds given by the system have matured.

When the second batch of seeds is planted, it will definitely not be hidden.

However, the first batch of grain is already ripe, so it doesn't matter if it is discovered.

Moreover, Wang Ben had already brought his troops to seek revenge on Xiang Yu, Yingjia had too few troops, and there was no way to send more people to guard the place.

But it is also a good thing, so if there is a large army stationed there, the first emperor may not be able to come in.

But Shihuang had already made up his mind, and he must let Wang Jian personally guard him before he can rest assured.

Now that the potato has been seen, he has to leave quickly.

But Shihuang kept staring at the potatoes, wanting to ask for some, but he opened his mouth and closed his mouth for a long time without saying anything.

It's better to leave quickly, in case Dong Zhongshu comes, he won't be able to leave.

Chapter 96 What Is Cultivation?

I also want to go to the east to see the living conditions of the people.

After all, this city of Xianyang is the one with the least famine, and the severity of other places is still unclear. You must see it with your own eyes to know the real situation.

So Shihuang said slowly: "If there are only these, then I will go back and report to Prime Minister Zhong."

Xuanwu was startled, did he leave so soon?

But that's right, this has just been promoted to the late stage of the Grand Master, and it really needs to be stabilized.

I have been on the road, and it is not easy to be calm and infuriating.

So Xuanwu clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Since your Excellency is in a hurry to return to life, let Xuanwu take you back. The sweet potatoes will be seen when you have time. Anyway, the sweet potatoes are not yet mature."

What? ? ?

And sweet potatoes? ? ?

What is this sweet potato? ? ?

Hearing this, Shihuang was stunned, and after a long time, he turned his head mechanically, stared at Xuanwu with a gaping mouth, and said after another long time: "It's okay, I'd better go and have a look."

"If Prime Minister Ten Thousand Middle School asks, it's easier for me to say something."

While Ying Zheng spoke, he tried his best to suppress the surge of zhenqi around him, but no matter how hard he tried, the zhenqi kept surging.

It's like turning clouds and rain, as if it wants to turn everything around it upside down.

Ordinary people would not be able to notice the abnormality of the true qi in Shihuang's body, but Xuanwu is already in the realm of a great master, but he can really feel it.

He sensed that the person next to him might be going crazy.

No, he can't let his zhenqi surge like this. Now there are only him and Shihuang on this mountain. If he really goes crazy, it's hard to say whether he can control it.

You have to stop and adjust your qi.

"Your Excellency, please pay attention to your true anger. No, absolutely not. You can wait for another day to see this sweet potato. If something happens to your lord, how can I explain it to Prime Minister Zhong?"

"The most important thing is to adjust your true energy."

However, Ying Zheng waved his hand.

"It's okay, I'll be fine, go and see the sweet potato, it's not your responsibility if something goes wrong."

Listening to the tone so serious, the eyes so firm.

Is it true that you don't take cultivation seriously and only care about work?

This is too professional.

Besides, it will take some time for the sweet potatoes to mature, so I can't see anything now.

Xuanwu was still a little worried, and then dissuaded him: "My lord, the sweet potatoes are not yet ripe. If you want to see it later, I will still take you to see it."

"If you missed this practice, I don't know when the next time you have this opportunity..."

Before Xuanwu finished speaking, Yingzheng waved his hand to interrupt him, and walked forward on his own:

"Cultivation has nothing to do with it. Just looking at a sweet potato will not delay anything. Since I have come today, I have to take a closer look. Let's go."

Seeing Ying Zheng's unwavering footsteps, Xuan Wu praised him, how could there be such a dedicated person?

Not only does he have such a high talent for cultivation, but he is also so dedicated, without any selfishness, and all of his heart and mind are for the people of Daqin.

If such a person comes to my Jinyiwei, he must be very respectful and responsible and will not make any mistakes.

When you turn around, you must ask the twelve sons when he came, and you must persuade the son to let this person come to Jinyiwei.

Such a talented person only takes a small official position under the Prime Minister Zhong, which is really a waste of talent.

Thinking of this, Xuanwu quickly chased after him and led the way for Ying Zheng.

The growing conditions of sweet potatoes are stricter than those of potatoes, requiring sufficient sunlight and moisture.

Xuanwu walked ahead and did not forget to introduce sweet potatoes to Shi Huang:

"My lord, you also tasted potatoes just now. In fact, the taste of these potatoes is generally not as good as that of sweet potatoes."

"Potatoes are usually boiled and eaten as a dish, but sweet potatoes are different. Not only can they be eaten raw to fight hunger, but they can also supplement the nutrients needed by the human body."

"There is a lot of sugar in it, and it tastes very good even if it is eaten raw. Although its growth environment is harsher than potatoes, it is more nutritious."

"It can be said that potatoes are only used to solve the current famine problem in Daqin, and this sweet potato is a delicious delicacy for the people, and it also has medicinal effects."

"Young Master Twelve said that if an elderly person with inconvenient excretion eats this sweet potato... it will relieve his pain."

"And this sweet potato can be directly used as a staple food. Those who work will be able to work for a whole day after eating this sweet potato."

Hearing this, Shi Huang felt very surprised.

Shadow seemed to have reported this to him before, saying that Xiao Twelve had found three kinds of food seeds.

In this way, it looks like sweet potatoes, potatoes and rice.

He didn't believe it at first, thinking that Xiao Shier's disregard was just bragging.

Now that I see the real thing, I believe it.

I didn't expect Xiao Twelve to be so powerful, his ability has far exceeded my imagination.

Just how much is the yield of this sweet potato, will it be higher than the yield of potatoes?

Shihuang didn't dare to imagine, but he still wanted to make Little Twelve think a little bit more.

This potato is already more than 5000 catties, so will the sweet potato weigh [-] catties?

Thinking of this, and the benefits of sweet potatoes that Xuanwu just said, Shihuang has already begun to look forward to it.

Before he knew it, the true energy in his body was violently surging.

It seems that the promotion just now is just the beginning, and the next step is to really break through the realm.

Seeing this situation, Xuanwu was shocked again.

This……

How is this going?

The zhenqi around him was violently surging, this was the first time he had encountered such a chaotic zhenqi.

If it continues like this, there will definitely be problems...

Severe cases may even lead to death. When the true energy is transported to the meridians and promoted to the next step, the meridians of the whole body must be opened.

But this is too incredible.

He had just been promoted to the late stage of the Grand Master, and it would take at least a few years to advance to the next stage if he practiced at the speed of a normal person.

Just to take a look at the sweet potato, do you have to put yourself in such a dangerous situation?

Xuanwu was a little anxious, and at the same time channeled the true energy in his body, so that he could deal with it in time if the other party really went mad.

At the same time, he took three people to the place where the sweet potatoes were grown.

At this time, I don't dare to be negligent. If I delay for too long, this person will be really angry, and I will be injured.
