Almighty System Great Master Qin

Chapter 57

Under the escort of five hundred Xuanwu guards, Qin Shihuang, Xiao Hong and Wang Jian got off the carriage.

"See Your Majesty" All the villagers immediately fell to their knees and shouted loudly.

"Everyone is free"

"You put away your weapons, why are you looking murderous? Here are His Majesty's subjects, not all of you are enemies." Xiao Hong said displeasedly when he saw these children were scared to cry by the murderous aura emitted by the cavalry.

"Yes, yes." All the fine riders put away their weapons with embarrassment on their faces, restraining their murderous aura.Lord Wu An had already spoken, and they did not dare to disobey, besides, since the First Battle of Hetao, Xiao Hong's prestige in the army has been comparable to that of Wang Jian.

"Mr. Wu An, where is this potato?"

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment." Xiao Hong looked around the villagers and finally found the pavilion chief Liu Shan.

"Liu Shan, come here"

Liu Shan leaned on a walking stick and walked up to Xiao Hong to salute, saying: "I have seen Your Majesty, I have seen Your Majesty." Liu Shan is the pavilion chief of Xiao Hong's fiefdom, and at this time Xiao Hong has also been named King, so Liu Shan There is nothing wrong with claiming to be a minister to Xiao Hong.

"No need to be polite." Xiao Hong helped Liu Shan up and said, "Now take us to see Xiangrui."

"Here, Your Majesty and Your Majesty, please come with me."

Qin Shihuang Xiao Hong and Wang Jian followed Liu Shan to the village first, and other Shangqing also followed with strides.

The five hundred Xuanwu guards were dispersed. Except for the hundred personal guards of Shihuang, the rest were scattered around the village to guard the village closely to prevent any criminals from sneaking in.

After a section of dirt road, everyone finally came to the ridge where potatoes were planted.

At this time, the accompanying historians and newspaper reporters were ready to record the moment when Xiangrui was unearthed.

Qin Shihuang looked at the green fields and was very excited. As long as these potatoes are spread to the world, as long as two seasons are different, the people of Daqin will be able to have enough food for everyone.

"Come on, I want to dig out the first auspicious stone myself"

Qin Shihuang picked up a small wooden shovel, and with the help of his servant, went down to the ridge of the field.

Qin Shihuang looked at the green leaves of the potatoes, swallowed, took a deep breath, and dug them down with a shovel.

Everyone watched Qin Shihuang's actions, and their hearts were raised in their throats.

But fortunately, ever since Qin Shihuang took tomatoes, cucumbers and watermelons from Xiao Hong and planted them, although the number of times he took care of these tomato seedlings by himself is very small, fortunately at least he has a little experience Otherwise, this shovel might dig up the potatoes.

After Qin Shihuang dug up the surrounding soil, he squatted down and carefully pulled out a bunch of potatoes from the soil with his hands.

Looking at the bunch of potatoes in Qin Shihuang's hand, everyone was stunned speechless.

I only saw seven bright yellow potatoes hanging on a bunch of potato vines in Qin Shihuang's hands, and each potato was much larger than a fist. At present, one potato weighs at least one catty. Of course, the measurement of the Qin Dynasty is used here. unit.

This potato plant is about seven or eight catties, so the yield of this acre!

Thinking of this, the hearts of many Shangqing ministers accelerated.

These important ministers who followed Qin Shihuang to unify the six countries have gone through hard times, and why Daqin often goes out to fight abroad, apart from the military merit system of Shang Jun, the most important thing is that Daqin is too poor.

Many people in Qin could not eat enough or wear clothes, so they had no choice but to go out to fight abroad, robbing other countries' territories and resources.

The servant next to Qin Shihuang immediately took the potatoes and carefully handed them over to the surveyor.

After many times of weighing, the measuring officer finally concluded that the potato plant weighs eight catties and six taels.

As the surveyor reported the weight, everyone was completely convinced that Xiangrui could really produce ten thousand catties per mu.

At this time, the ridge where Qin Shihuang was standing was surrounded by hundreds of soldiers, and they happened to be one mu of land.

And this mu of land is measured after many times, and there will be absolutely no deviation.

Qin Shihuang's eyes were red and he said excitedly: "Everyone will dig out these potatoes with me, and remember not to hurt Xiangrui. You might as well come with me, Mr. Wu'an."

"Okay." Xiao Hong casually picked up a wooden shovel and jumped into the ridge of the field, while Wang Jian and other generals even took off their armor and threw it aside, pulled out the bronze sword that he usually cherished very much, and started digging potatoes .

The ministers like Li Si even used wat boards, knelt in the ground and dug non-stop, and didn't care if their robes were covered with mud.

"Hahaha" Wang Jian was the first to dig out a potato, and laughed excitedly, but the potato in his hand was actually connected with eight potatoes.

Seeing that Wang Jian had dug out a potato plant, Li Xin threw away the bronze sword in his hand and dug it up vigorously with his hands.

Soon, under Li Xin's desperate digging method, he also successfully dug out a potato plant, but his potato plant was smaller than Wang Jian's.

When everyone saw Tiehanhan Li Xin, they had dug up potatoes, and even ignored it.

In the field, the high-ranking ministers and ministers in the past appeared, regardless of their image, digging potatoes hard, and those who dug up the potatoes knelt on the ground looking at the potatoes in their hands and laughed, many of them even cried.

On the other hand, Ying Shiman and Wang Xuan were much more gentle. Although they were also very excited, at least they did not lose their minds like these ministers and ministers, using a small wooden shovel.

However, the two of them were lucky, and the potato plants dug out by the two of them were not small in size.

It took a long time for the ministers and ministers to finally dig out all the potatoes in this acre of field. Seeing their results, all of them smiled with relief.

After all the potatoes were collected, Jing Lang, the governor of Nanyang County, led Wei Shou, the county magistrate, and other officials to start sorting them out.

First, carefully wipe off the soil on the potatoes, and then carefully put them in the bamboo building aside.

The measuring officer on the side is responsible for weighing and calculating these potatoes.

Meng Yi, Li Si, and Wang Wan are responsible for calculating the weight of each weighing to prevent errors.

After more than ten minutes of intense weighing and calculation, the final result was obtained.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty" Meng Yi announced a number tremblingly.

"The yield of potatoes per mu is [-] catties"

The yield of this acre of potatoes is much higher than what Xiao Hong planted on the mountain back then. Of course, Xiao Hong didn't bother to take care of it at that time.

"it is good"

"it is good!"

"it is good!!"

"Hahahaha" Qin Shihuang laughed heartily, and said, "So, great things can be expected in the future."

All the officials were boiling, the yield of potatoes exceeded everyone's expectations, and this was a randomly selected field.

If it is well cared for, the yield will be higher.

"come"

"His Majesty"

"Order the sergeant to harvest all the potatoes. Remember to be careful not to hurt the auspiciousness. Every acre harvested is weighed and measured, and there must be no mistakes."

"Here, order"

The [-] soldiers stationed at the entrance of the village all went down to the fields and began to dig potatoes with their hands. After all, there were not so many small wooden shovels available in the village, and in order to avoid hurting Xiangrui, the first emperor also ordered not to use swords. Digging by hand, a total of [-] mu of potatoes were planted in Nanyang County, while the village where Liu Shan lived had a total of over [-] mu of potatoes.

With 8000 people and the people in the village, all the potatoes can be harvested in a few hours.
