In fact, long before the emperor of Qi State succeeded to the throne, traces of rice were found in various places, and it was also used for cooking. The taste is naturally good, but its harvest ratio is much lower than that of corn and wheat. many.

If it is said that one mu of fertile land can produce two shi of corn, then if it is rice, it can only harvest ten catties or even less.

Throwing aside the outermost layer of hard shell, there are very few edible parts left.

Therefore, this kind of crop is only available every harvest season, and the kings of the various princes can only taste it, and then basically have nothing to eat.

But King Qi took out so much at once...

Dong Liang counted it carefully, and the number he estimated in his heart was not a small number, so he immediately began to persuade him.

But before he could say a few words, he was interrupted by Jian Shi, "Mr. Dong, don't forget, what is the output of sweet potatoes in Yongyi City?"

Everyone was stunned.

That's right, when Your Majesty asked them to open up wasteland to plow the land and grow sweet potatoes, weren't they also worried that it wouldn't work?

The reason for agreeing is not because it is all wasteland used by the common people to cultivate.

As a result, when harvesting in late autumn, the highest yield was as high as 25 shi!

This is the only one among the princes!

If this rice is as productive as sweet potatoes...

Dong Liang immediately asked for more detailed information, and Jian Shi naturally couldn't stop this matter as the lord of a country, but said: "I'm afraid I have to ask Mr. Shang, he knows these things best."

Shang Yang took up the conversation and made it clear word by word.

When they learned that the low-yield fields could be worth hundreds of stones per acre, everyone's hearts almost skipped a beat, and they were immediately ecstatic.

The joy is that the rice is actually taller than the sweet potato, the talent who can grow this kind of rice is in their Qi State, and the future Qi State may become the most powerful existence among the vassal states!

How can this keep them from moving?

It's a pity that no amount of heartbeat can beat the worry about the future.

Dong Liang: "But if we all plant rice at the beginning of the coming year, what if the harvest is not as good as expected? Or in the worst case, it can't even reach an acre or two stones. How can the people fill their stomachs?"

It does make sense to hear it this way. For most people, as long as they can fill their stomachs, it is almost enough, and sweet potatoes will definitely continue to be planted in the spring of the coming year. If such rice is planted again, the land will certainly not be enough. .

Is it like when you were growing sweet potatoes, go out to open up wasteland and farm?

The current Yongyi City is Bainan City, which is close to Xia Kingdom. There are many merchants there, and there are naturally many bandits around. If they go south to their Yongyi City, how will they protect the fields opened outside?

Dong Liang's arguments were well-founded and well-founded, and every word made sense, which made Jane suddenly silent.

To put it bluntly, there is still a shortage of people.

If Yongyi City has a population of over one hundred thousand, why worry about no one doing these things?

It's a pity that the total population of the entire Qi State is only so small. Qi State is divided into four states, and the population is even more scattered. How difficult is it to make such a decision?

While eating hot pot, discussing the next year's spring plowing, the hall was very lively, and Qi Xie, who was pretending to be a guard in the hall, naturally heard these things clearly and clearly.

Seeing that the show was about to end, Qi Xie hurriedly found a gap and left the hall.

After arguing almost all night, a series of reform policies for the coming year were finally determined.

After being reminded by Dong Liang, Jian Shi realized that she had made a fatal mistake.Although it is important to open up wasteland and grow food to fill the stomachs of the people, the most important thing is that our military has not kept up.

Now the sweet potato that Qi already has is already a hot potato, and everyone in the four states knows it. If one is careless and leaks the news, then Qi, which has just gained a name, will instantly become the target of public criticism. How can it resist other vassal states? oppression?

I'm afraid that the first one to take him to the knife will be King Qi's good brother, the princes and kings of the Xia Kingdom!

Whether to rub it round or flatten it, I'm afraid it just depends on the other party's wishes.

Jian Shi, who came to her senses, immediately ordered people to firmly guard the border between Xia Kingdom and Yongyi City, and at the same time ordered a large amount of money to go to other three states to recruit craftsmen to repair the box mouth and establish a safety line.

If Xia Guo is really going to call, at least he still has a buffer time.

The production of iron rakes was completely stopped at the iron ore factory, and all of them were used to build knives and other weapons in case of emergencies.

"Fuck, fuck, why didn't I think of it! Such a high production rate, if the news gets out, I'll finish the ball [-]%!" Jian Shi walked back and forth in the room, feeling a chill in her heart, heart soaring.

The task of unifying the world is not even close to each other now, so I have to be exposed first, is that okay?Hurry up and think of a way to arm Qi!

People, people, people!

Jian Shi's preoccupation now is the population problem.

Before crossing, the population of Yangyang Huaxia alone was more than [-] billion, and the current population of his country...

Forget it, it hurts to mention it.

Jian Shi was afraid of Qi Xie, of course he knew it, but he didn't say words of comfort, he just raised his head and looked at him obediently.

Sure enough, after a while, Jian Shi directly put Renlou in his arms and began to comfort himself, muttering like a poor puppy.

It's really pitiful, I wish I could make people cry directly...

Qi Xie had evil thoughts in his heart, but in fact he didn't dare to do any unnecessary movements, he just let him be hugged quietly, as obedient as he could be.

Anyone who reads it will say good boy.

"Cub, what do you think I should do?" Jian Shi stroked the child's soft hair, his face full of lovelessness.

Touching the slightly protruding Adam's apple with his fingertips, Qi Xie said without blinking: "Brother is a god, no matter what you say, they will listen to you."

The feeling of numbness made Jane feel a little uncomfortable, but after being with the little boy for so long and being stuck for so long, she was a little used to it, so she didn't bother to hide, "But if the news of our Qi country spreads and attracts others What about my covetousness?"

"Then kill them all!"

The cold, completely emotionless voice made Jian Shi tremble uncontrollably. Really, why are children so hostile.

"Okay, I don't want to, Ah Xie, don't you want to know? How do you feel about studying with Mr. Shang recently? Is there anything you can't keep up with?" Jane changed the subject and asked about the little boy's courses seriously.

Compared with the current situation that the little brat has already read, Jian Shi, an illiterate, doesn't even recognize all the words, and is inexplicably cautious when speaking, Jian Shi couldn't help touching his nose.

"No, Ah Xie can learn from studying."

"Okay, Ah Xie is the most obedient, hey, eat a candy." Jian Shi stuffed him with a candy and walked towards the bathroom.

After washing, the two got into bed.

Before Jane could say anything, the kid next to him had already entered the state of cultivation, and a cool breath lingered around him, but he didn't feel very cold.But Jian Shi still couldn't help wrapping up the small quilt that was sleeping alone and fell asleep.

Of course, to practice this kind of thing, you have to start spring. Besides, in winter, you should follow nature and hibernate.

Soon, it will be the fifth day of the first lunar month.

On this day, Jian Shi deliberately got up before the little boy woke up, and looked at the child who was quiet and wrapped up like a silkworm baby, and laughed unkindly.

Ever since he woke up from the coma, the little boy has been relying on him, insisting on sleeping together, in the name of two people can practice together.

Jian Shi was tortured to the point of no choice, so she agreed, but each slept on the same quilt. At first, Jian Shi thought that the child would often say something that was misunderstood, so she deliberately stared at it, but after staring at it for two days, she found that Xie is no different from a normal child now, and he never said those misleading words before, but he was relieved, and he sighed that Shang Yang's education was good, and he corrected the child's three views.

Cough, of course, the concept of killing people at every turn has not been changed.

But Jane is already very satisfied with this.

Thinking in a mess in her heart, Jian Shi quickly asked 001 to exchange the gifts and cakes he had chosen long ago before she woke up, put them on the table, and then quietly got back under the covers, pretending that she didn't care about anything. Unknowingly, he half-opened his eyes and pushed aside——

"Hmm~"

With a soft snort, Jian Shi unceremoniously put a leg up with half-closed eyes, with a lot of strength, and even kicked down viciously.

Qi Xie, who was still thinking about what Jian Shi would do next, suddenly suffered a disaster. That kick was so nimble that it almost killed his life.How can he pretend at this moment, he immediately turned over and pressed on the person next to him, and said softly, "Oh~ brother, what are you doing?"

"Of course I woke you up, little lazy pig."

"Oh……"

The child got up unwillingly, put on his shoes in a daze and prepared to wash up, walked to the table and exclaimed, "Wow! Brother, what is this?"

"Happy birthday to you~"

Jane lifted the quilt excitedly and got out of bed, and sang the birthday song.

But when he heard that it was a birthday present, Qi Xie's expression immediately changed, his cold eyes glanced at Jian Shi, and he ran out without saying a word, which made Jian Shi baffled: What's wrong with this child?

No child is unhappy when they receive a birthday present, right?

The child whom he had been thinking about was in the dungeon, wantonly venting the anger in his chest. In just a moment, his blood flowed into a river and his wailing was everywhere, but he gritted his teeth as if inaudible: "Qi, Xiao, Chen, the whole world The master should also be replaced!"

"What stimulated you, Your Majesty?" Qin Yao asked in a low voice.

Provoking a fierce fist from my brother, "Forget what day is today?"

When he said this, Qin Yao suddenly remembered something, looked around, and closed his mouth carefully.

What days can there be?

Of course it's the master's birthday, this is Qi Xie's heart disease, it happens every year, anyone who talks too much will end up dead!

Judging from the current situation, Mr. Jian is really special. The master would rather come down and torture these spies than hurt him at all.
