Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 19 The Old Iron is Awesome 666
"According to my research and calculations, the minimum output value per mu is three thousand catties, and the maximum can be six thousand catties or more."

"The soil quality of the deserted island is not very good. Most of them are saline-alkali land. It is very good to be able to grow sweet potatoes, so we don't pursue the amount of production."

Hearing that one mu of land can produce at least three thousand catties, Shi Huangdi and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.

One mu is [-], ten mu is [-], what about a hundred mu, or even a thousand mu!
Dare not to imagine it, Wang Ben was going crazy, and he didn't know what he was excited about.

Daqin doesn't have much land and has the most land. If it can be planted, it will be really exciting!
"The young man, how long is the interval from planting to harvesting?"

When Li Si asked this sentence, his voice trembled uncontrollably.

This made Chang Yu feel a little proud.

This genetically modified sweet potato is a project he personally cultivated.

It is better than many sweet potato seeds outside, both in terms of taste and utility value.

"The usual time for sweet potatoes to be harvested is once a year after the frost in autumn."

Hearing that the harvest was once a year, Emperor Shihuang and the others restrained a bit, but they were quite satisfied.

So much can be produced at one time, and if the planting area is fully expanded, the annual production is enough to maintain.

Seeing that they were a little disappointed, Chang Yu couldn't help cursing in his heart.

One seed, one harvest, is this disgusting?
I'm afraid you think sweet potatoes are sustainable, right?
Sow once, reap several times?It's not the fruit on the tree!

Slightly pursing his lips, Chang Yu couldn't help but ask, "Don't you know sweet potatoes?"

"I don't know, it's the first time I see you." Emperor Shi Huang and the others shook their heads.

Chang Yu was choked, and they didn't know what it was when they first landed on the island.

Can't it?Sweet potato is such a ubiquitous food, but there are still people who don’t know about it?
Remember, sweet potatoes were introduced into China as the most basic food production in the Ming Dynasty around 1600, and they survived several times of great famine.

If there were no sweet potatoes during the great famines, the number of people starved to death would have increased by more than ten times.

I don't know this kind of thing, Chang Yu really wants to wonder if they are normal people, or whether they have hallucinations and are crazy because they haven't seen anyone for a long time.

After pondering for a moment, Chang Yu said to them: "Let me tell you, the sweet potato seeds are not only edible."

Although his thoughts are rather messy at the moment, but this is knowledge in his professional field, since he said it, he will not feel comfortable until he finishes it.

Emperor Shihuang and the others were a little surprised. They couldn't think of anything other than sweet potato seeds that could be eaten.

They were all sitting cross-legged, waiting for Chang Yu to say something to satisfy their curiosity.

"Sweet potatoes are also called sweet potatoes, and the leaves they produce are called sweet potato leaves, which can be eaten as vegetables when picked."

"This is a genetically modified product that has been modified by me. The nutritional elements of the leaves are higher than ordinary ones."

"Not only is it good enough for frying, but it can also be used to make soup. The nutritional effect and taste are also not the crispness of sweet potatoes."

"Sweet potatoes themselves are not just eaten raw or roasted."

"Can be cut into strips and used as French fries."

"Let the sun expose to the sun and shrink the water, and the sweet potato fries formed can also be stored for a long time."

He talked a lot about how to eat Chinese food and its uses, but Emperor Shihuang and the others were dumbfounded.

When Wang Ben heard that the leaves they threw everywhere yesterday were also edible food, he went crazy!
Like a wild bull attacking, they rushed towards the field. They lost everything they cherished yesterday!

The First Emperor and Li Si were stunned for a moment. Although they couldn't understand many of the recipes, they knew they could be eaten.

Seeing that their minds were full of eating and drinking, Chang Yu's enthusiasm was slowly exhausted.

This is really playing the piano to the cow, explaining so much, except that he can shout, the old iron is awesome 666, and he can't say anything.

Forget it, I am too lazy to say, I have said all that should be said.

Just as Chang Yu was about to leave, Li Si stopped him and asked about the potatoes that came with the sweet potatoes.

Chang Yu didn't explain much about that kind of thing, so he casually pinched it and told them.

"A sin!"

Wang Ben was over there in the field, returning with a dried sweet potato leaf in his arms.

"I just picked it up yesterday, and it's gone today, I can't eat it at all!"

The sweet potato leaves on the other side of the field made Wang Ben's heart ache.

He even missed an edible food. If it is cultivated well, it can even improve Daqin's food.

Unexpectedly, they were thrown away as garbage!
Holding the shriveled sweet potato leaves, Wang Ben knelt in front of the first emperor and begged him to forgive him. It was his negligence that caused it.

Looking at Wang Ben who was crying and begging for mercy, Chang Yu's face was full of black lines: "You are crazy!"

What's so sad about this kind of thing?
If it is not preserved properly, it will be gone overnight.

When you want to eat, pick fresh ones, so that you won't be confused.

Every year after the harvest is over, they are thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

Otherwise, if you put it in the field, the animals in the forest will come out to eat it.

This is also a balance of symbiosis and coexistence with animals in nature.

"You don't even know how important this kind of thing is to our Great Qin!"

Wang Ben yelled at Chang Yu, what a waste of money!
The harvest has been finished, there is no fresh ones, I wanted to try the taste, but at this moment I can only wail helplessly.

"Isn't it sweet potato leaves? Why are you so distressed!"

Chang Yu rolled his eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to him, so helpless that he died!
Looking at him like that, he must be hungry again, and the time is almost up, and it's time for Chang Yu to cook.

This was not for the sake of the First Emperor and the others. Chang Yu would do it when he was hungry. If they were hungry first, then so be it.

Who told them not to cook!
It can only be pinned on Chang Yu to be hungry early.

When Chang Yu was packing up the food, Emperor Shi Huang and Li Sike kept turning around beside him like mosquitoes.

One of the things is to study how Chang Yu eats, and the main thing is to keep asking Chang Yu.

"How is paper made?"

"How to refine fine salt?"

"You know so much and where did you know it? Could it be that you are really a fairy who descended from the sky?"

"By the way, how do you get sweet potato seeds, potatoes and other grain seeds?"

"Also, the name Chang Yu is a bit strange. Who is your family name?"

"Hey! I asked you something, why didn't you answer it!"

At this moment, Chang Yu is like the Supreme Treasure in Journey to the West, who is constantly buzzing in his ears by a nagging master!
I didn't understand it when I watched the movie. Master is really so annoying to be described as a fly?
Now Chang Yu can understand!

I am Nima!
At this moment, I really want to slap the 'fly' to death like Supreme Treasure!
The same is true for Li Si, even worse than that, the two of them kept chattering next to each other.

In contrast, Wang Ben was suddenly much more pleasing to the eye, except for being startled and quick-tempered.
