I am the empress, you still tell me to run away?

"Take me to see."

"it is good."

Little Luoli brought Zhao Yuehan and the old servant Li Mu who continued to gnaw the corn to the backyard.

Except for the necessary walking area in the open space in the backyard, Lin Xuan seems to have planted messy things in any open space.

Zhao Yuehan looked at the crops in the yard, eyes full of doubts: "Which one is corn?"

Xiao Luoli pointed to the row beside the door: "These are."

Looking around, there are nearly 20 corns growing on the shrubs nearly two meters high, and each corn seems to weigh at least five or six catties, which should not be much?

Chapter 56 Lin Xuan's Backyard

Zhao Yuehan glanced at it casually, and there were about 120 corn plants scattered in the small courtyard, and each plant had about 25 corns, and each corn was about five or six catties.

Calculated according to the minimum value, that is, the corn in this small yard weighs more than 15000 catties?

hiss!

Zhao Yuehan was slightly taken aback.

In order to verify the shocking conjecture just now, she directly picked off a corn, and after opening it, she found that the corn inside was no different from the one she ate just now.

This output is real!

If every family grows corn, do they still have to worry about the lack of food?

Thinking of this, Zhao Yuehan took a deep breath.

Her gaze turned to the vines planted on the ground, and her intuition told her that it was not that simple: "What are these?"

Little Luoli walked over and said, "The master said, these are called potatoes."

Zhao Yuehan asked, "Can I eat it?"

Little Luoli nodded: "Well, the master said that it can be eaten, shredded, sliced, roasted or boiled. The master said that some will be harvested in the next few days."

The old servant Li Mu tilted his head: "How many potatoes can grow on such two lands?"

Just a cursory look, Lin Xuan didn't seem to have planted many potatoes, and he didn't know what they looked like. The old servant Li Mu was simply curious.

Little Luoli nodded: "Master said, about [-] catties?"

Thirty thousand catties? !

The old servant Li Mu opened his mouth so wide that he almost dropped all the corn in his hand.

He walked a few steps back and forth along the vegetable field. It was hard to imagine that such a small area could grow [-] catties of potatoes?

How can this be?

Even Zhao Yuehan couldn't believe it: "It's really thirty thousand catties?"

Xiao Luoli nodded again: "Master will not lie."

After a few clicks, the old servant Li Mu gnawed off the corn in his hand, stepped forward quickly, scratched the ground with his bare hands, grabbed the vine and pulled it hard, pulling out a large bunch of potatoes.

This is still the effect of soft soil, if it is hard land, it cannot be done.

I saw the roots of a vine involving potatoes one after another.

The big one weighs five catties, and the small one weighs three catties.

In addition, I used too much force when I pulled it just now, and some potatoes were not pulled out from the ground.

"What kind of fairy food is this?"

The old servant Li Mu looked at Tudou in front of him, he was so shocked that he couldn't say a word, tears flowed down his face even more involuntarily.

As long as there is this kind of food, there will be relief for the big work. The victims of the famine will not be afraid of having no food to eat, and the soldiers who are going out will not have to worry about not being able to raise enough food for the rear.

Zhao Yuehan lowered his body, grabbed a potato, felt the weight of it, and was extremely excited.

She came here just to ask Lin Xuan if there is a permanent solution to the Dagan famine.

How can this method be more convincing than the food in front of you?

The yield of 120 corn plants is about 15000 jin.

The output of potatoes in two sub-districts is about 30000 catties...

……

"The master said, these potatoes are nothing."

Zhao Yuehan and the old servant Li Mu were still in shock, and Xiao Luoli added a sentence.

what?

Two points of land, 30000 catties of potatoes, is nothing? !

Zhao Yuehan and the old servant Li Mu looked at Xiao Luoli like hungry wolves, so scared that Xiao Luoli took a step back.

It didn't take long for Zhao Yuehan to realize that she was still the emperor.

However, in the face of so much food, it doesn't matter whether the emperor is an emperor or not!

"Luo Li, do you think there are more yields than this?" Zhao Yuehan glanced at the small courtyard, and saw an unknown vine fruit weighing thirty to fifty catties growing in the field, "Could it be That? What is that?"

Xiao Luoli looked over and shook her head: "The master said it's called watermelon, it's for quenching thirst, it's sweeter than honey, it's not food."

watermelon?

Zhao Yuehan somehow felt a little defeated.

You know, although she is a royal family, she has learned a lot of basic agricultural knowledge, in order to avoid being scolded for not knowing all kinds of grains.

But in Lin Xuan's small courtyard, she really doesn't know anything, let alone what grows in the field and how to eat it.

Is this watermelon delicious?

However, since Lin Xuan said that this is not food, what is it that is more productive than potatoes?

Xiao Luoli pointed to the field next to the potatoes: "The one the master said is more productive than the potatoes is this one. The name seems to be called sweet potato, and it can also be divided according to the name. The red ones are called sweet potatoes, and the purple ones are called purple potatoes."

Yield is higher than potatoes? !

Zhao Yuehan looked at the yams in the field, his eyes sparkled.

As for the old servant Li Mu at the side, he quickly started digging with his hands without waiting for Zhao Yuehan to speak.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Luoli pointed to the hoe beside her: "Then there are hoe, which can be used to dig directly."

The old servant Li Mu turned his head and took a look, then continued to plan with his hands: "That will hurt the grain, oh, the potato."

One minute later, the old servant Li Mu dug out a sweet potato weighing more than 1 kilograms, held it in his hand and kept giggling, and more tears flowed from his eyes while giggling.

Apart from this sweet potato, there are many more that he hasn't dug out. If he really wants to dig them out, the yield will definitely be much higher than that of potatoes!

"Old man, did you hurt your hand?"

Seeing the old servant Li Mu bursting into tears, little Luoli asked worriedly.

"No, no, I just saw such a large amount of food, I'm happy, happy!"

After Xiao Luoli said this, the old servant Li Mu held the potato in his hand and cried even more happily.

Even Zhao Yuehan had tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.

With this kind of food, the mother no longer has to worry about food and grass, and the people in Dagan no longer have to worry about famine.

Wait, look at the backyard, Lin Xuan grows a lot of food, she asked them one by one.

"Xiao Luoli, what is this?"

"This is a tomato. The red one can be eaten directly. It can be paired with eggs to make tomato and egg soup. It's delicious!"

Little Luoli seemed to think of the tomato and egg soup that Lin Xuan made a few days ago, and smiled sweetly.

"oh oh."

Zhao Yuehan nodded.

She has come here so many times, but Lin Xuan didn't even make a meal for her, and even ate alone!

"Xiao Luoli, what is this?"

"This is a green pepper. It's not spicy and tastes terrible. The owner likes to take it with scrambled eggs. The one next to the green pepper is called chili pepper. It's very spicy. Luo Li dare not eat it, but the driver Xu likes it very much."

……

"Little Luoli, what about this one?"

"This is a long bean. It is fried and eaten. Just sprinkle some salt and stir-fry it. It's delicious."

……

"Little Luoli, what about this one?"

"The owner said that this is called melon, also called pear melon and gold melon, it is very sweet and delicious."

Seeing the melon among the vines, little stars twinkled in Xiao Luoli's eyes. She walked over quickly, and found a pair of small scissors from nowhere, and cut off a big pear melon.

"For you, this one is ripe, you can taste it later."

"Just give me a little bit..."

Chapter 57 Things Are Difficult!

This melon is very sweet!

Zhao Yuehan, old servants Li Mu and little Luoli ate the pears and melons they picked just now, it was very sweet.

After eating the melon, Zhao Yuehan quickly calmed down.

The food in front of me is too amazing.

In the words of my uncle, it is not an exaggeration to call it fairy food.

If these are really fairy food, will Lin Xuan have anything to do with them?

These still have to wait for Lin Xuan to come back and ask to know. After all, there is a severe drought in Xiangzhou, and it is she who asks Lin Xuan.

A while later, Lin Xuan came back from outside in a carriage, saw Zhao Yuehan sitting under the grape arbor, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Zhao, long time no see."

Zhao Yuehan immediately stood up and replied: "Brother Lin, I have been waiting for you for a long time, please help me!"

help?

Lin Xuan was a little surprised. Could it be because of the selection of officials from the Ministry of Commerce last time?

"Brother Zhao, there is nothing between you and me to help, but it doesn't matter."

"The thing is like this. There was a flood in Xiangzhou some time ago, and there was a severe drought recently, which directly caused millions of famine refugees to migrate to other states." Zhao Yuehan said quickly, "Your Majesty ordered the opening of warehouses for disaster relief, but whether it is Xiangzhou , or the rest of the surrounding states, there is not much food left. In addition, affected by the famine in Xiangzhou, military food and grass are in a hurry!"

"Right now, the Ministry of Commerce is responsible for raising military supplies and food for disaster relief."

"..."

Millions of famine refugees?

hiss!

Lin Xuan took a deep breath.

Since ancient times, most of the common people rebelled because of famine and no food to eat.

Therefore, they will unite in desperation to eat the big family.

The big eaters are mainly local landlords, official lords, and court granaries.

Just for this morsel of food, they don't even need their lives to rush up without fear of death. Anyway, starving to death is death, so there is nothing to be afraid of if they rush up to die or not.

Because, if you don't die if you rush up, you can have a bite to eat and survive.

As for whether he will die in the future, it is not in the scope of consideration at all.

Just survive now.

Therefore, after they succeed, they often eat up not only the food, but even the owner's family.

"This matter is very tricky!"
