Daqin: Zulong Overheard My Rebellion Plan
Chapter 208 Scumbags, Feel The Impact Of High-Yield Grain!
Wang Ying smiled casually: "This Marquis naturally knows that bullying the emperor is a serious crime.
"But how can this Marquis deceive the king?"
Ying Zheng cast a glance at Wang Ying.
Is your kid bullying the king less often?
How thick-skinned do you have to be able to say this so nonchalantly?
Wang Ying pointed to the slightly withered and yellowed leaf stalks in the field and said, "What is planted in this field is the new grain that the Marquis mentioned.
"The heads of Guizhou in Qianluogu are indeed harvesting spring."
"How has this Marquis ever deceived His Majesty?"
Li Si stepped into the field, looked carefully at a potato stalk, and then looked at Wang Ying with a frown.
"Marquis of Chang'an, this is clearly a meadow."
"At best, it's nothing more than a meadow with amazing growth."
"Why is it food?"
All the courtiers looked at Wang Ying with some unkind eyes.
Are you insulting our IQ or our eyesight?
Wang Ying smiled and shook his head.
"Li Xiang, don't be so arbitrary."
"Is it not food if you can't see where the food is?"
"The radish (radish) exposed above the ground is nothing but a green leaf like a weed.
Li Si was startled when he heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Could it be that this new food is also like a radish, and its roots are eaten?"
Wang Ying ignored Li Si, but stepped into the field.
Grabbing the top of the potato stalk with his left hand, he drew out the Qin sword from his waist with his right hand and swung it down suddenly.
"This uppermost leaf stalk is slightly poisonous."
"However, blanch it in boiling water and serve it on the table, and the children next door will be greedy and cry!"
Putting the cut leaf stalk aside, Wang Ying grabbed the remaining leaf stalk and pulled it out vigorously.
Following Wang Ying's movements, more than a dozen fist-sized potatoes were dragged out.
After looking at Tudou's size, Wang Ying was slightly surprised: "Mr. Duo, this one is much bigger than last year's!"
Duo Sun smiled and said, "Second son, last year the folks cultivated this plant for the first time, and they don't know how to take care of it."
"Now it is the third time to cultivate this food, and the villagers also know how to serve this food."
"It's naturally a lot bigger."
While talking, Du Ruo looked at the black mud balls in Wang Ying's hands, and asked in astonishment.
"Marquis Chang'an, the grain you want to talk about is not this one, is it?"
A month ago, Dunruo took Ye Che and the others to search the valley all over, and saw these mud balls a lot.
But all the fighters of the Great Qin Dynasty didn't think this thing would be edible at all.
After all, no matter how you look at it, it's just a mud ball!
Wang Ying smiled and nodded: "Dun Shangqing's words are right.". "
"This thing is the grain seed that the Marquis said!"
"Mr. Duo, my colleagues walked the mountain road for two hours, and my stomach must be empty, so I went to ask the villagers to bury the pot to cook.
"By the way, fetch another basin of water."
"Obey!"
Soon, Duo Sun brought a basin of clear water.
After washing the potatoes in water, Wang Ying drew out his dagger and cut off the outer layer of the beans.
Holding the potato, Wang Ying said with a smile: "This is a new grain that I found from a foreign land.
"The officer calls it, potatoes!"
【Feel the impact of high-yield grain, scumbags!】
Ying Zheng frowned slightly upon hearing this.
He always felt that he had heard the name somewhere before.
Immediately, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.
Come to think of it, the last time I heard the name of potatoes was from Wang Ying.
But not from Wang Ying's mouth, but from Wang Ying's heart.
At that time, Wang Ying once boasted that he had potatoes with an yield of 25 shi per mu and sweet potatoes with an yield of 40 shi per mu!
Could it be that the thing in Wang Ying's hands is the field beans that yield 2500 shi per mu?
Looking at the potato that was shining with light and moist luster under the sunlight, Meng Yi tentatively asked: "This thing, can it be eaten?"
Wang Ying laughed: "Since it is food, it can be eaten naturally!"
"However, raw potatoes are poisonous, and they need to be cooked before they can be eaten."
At this moment, dozens of middle-aged women walked over with a food box in their hands.
Seeing this, Wang Ying smiled: "In the countryside, because of its delicious food."
"Some meals cooked with these potatoes, please Your Majesty and colleagues have a taste."
Hearing this, Duo Sun opened the food boxes, revealing eighteen small dishes in each food box, and exuded a slight sweet smell.
Smelling the fragrance in the air, Ying Zheng smiled.
It smells good. "
Zhao Gao first ate a chopstick to help Ying Zheng test the poison.
After waiting for dozens of breaths, Zhao Gao, who didn't feel any discomfort, smiled flatteringly: "Not only is it full of fragrance, but the taste is really good too."
Ying Zheng suddenly became interested: "Oh?"
"Then I want to taste it."
Without setting up a table, he just stood where he was, and asked the eunuch to hold the food box, and Ying Zheng took a chopstick of potato balls and put them in his mouth.
"Um?"
Chewing the potato balls, Ying Zheng couldn't help nodding.
"Soft, glutinous and sweet, the taste is really good."
Seeing that Ying Zheng ignored the etiquette and started eating standing up, the other courtiers immediately moved their chopsticks at the food box in front of them.
“The taste of this dish is really good!”
"This dish should be made from the potatoes, right? Who would have thought that such an insignificant crop would taste so good after cooking?"
"The taste is acceptable, but it can also be a novelty."
"The Marquis of Chang'an really never deceived the emperor, there are actually crops harvested in April in the world!"
"No matter what the taste is, if Marquis of Chang'an can find a new kind of grain, it is already a monstrous achievement!"
Meng Yi glanced at the mashed potatoes in the left plate, then at the charcoal-baked potato chips in the right plate, Meng Yi looked at Wang Ying with some puzzlement.
"Marquis Chang'an, are these two dishes made from potatoes?"
Wang Ying nodded and said, "Indeed."
"The one on Meng Shangqing's left hand side is mashed potatoes, which are made by mashing potatoes and steaming them.
"On the right side of Meng Shangqing are charcoal baked potato slices, which are made by slicing potatoes and then charcoal roasting."
[This time when I go back, I will build the wok. 】
【Then you can enjoy potato chips and hot and sour potato shreds, slip
The doubts in Meng Yi's eyes deepened: "Then, is this potato a vegetable or a grain?"
Wang Ying said with a smile: "Ben Hou thinks that these potatoes are suitable for vegetables and food, but what does Shangqing think?"
"Is it suitable for food and vegetables?"
Meng Yi nodded slowly: "What the Marquis of Chang'an said is true!"
"This potato is quite miraculous."
How can there be crops that can be used as both food and vegetables in today's world?
Now this potato is the first of its kind.
After eating up a plate of potato balls, Ying Zheng wiped his mouth with a silk cloth,
"I was wrong to blame Qian Luogu Qianshou.
"This is my loss!"
Ying Zheng looked at Wang Ying with burning eyes.
"I just don't know the yield per mu of potatoes?"
Meng Yi smiled and said: "The potatoes are suitable for vegetables and food, and they can be harvested in April, which can fill the food shortage of the first half of the year.
"But it is precisely because of this thing that it grows in winter, so I think it is not easy for this thing to produce half a stone per mu."
All the courtiers couldn't help nodding their heads when they heard the words.
Great Qin emphasized farming, so all the courtiers knew something about farming.
Since this kind of crop can be harvested in early spring, the yield of this kind of crop must be low.
After all, there is less sunlight in winter and the climate is cold, so how can the grain grow too large?
However, Wang Ying spoke slowly with her hands behind her back.
"This potato yields two thousand shi!"
Meng Yi exclaimed in astonishment: "How much?"
Wang Ying said solemnly: "Twenty-five stones per mu!"
【This pretend posture, I give myself 100 points!】
【No wonder so many people love pretend. 】
【This pretending is really cool!】
"Hiss~"
A gasp sounded at the scene, and Meng Yi looked at Wang Ying in disbelief.
"Marquis of Chang'an, the most important thing in the Great Qin Dynasty, is plowing and fighting."
"This matter is related to farming, so don't dare to speak nonsense!"
Wang (Zhao's Zhao) Ying smiled: "Just now my official said that Qian Luogu Guishou is harvesting in spring, and all my colleagues don't believe it.
"But the facts have proved that the Marquis has never said anything in vain."
"Why does Meng Shangqing feel that this Marquis is lying?"
All the courtiers were in an uproar.
"Nowadays, the yield of corn in Daqin is only one and a half stones per mu. How can this potato yield fifteen stones per mu?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"In the past, when the Lord Shang was prime minister, a farmer cultivated land with a yield of two stones and one bucket per mu, which directly alarmed Qin Xiaogong, and even caused Qin Xiaogong to pass the decree himself, rewarding the farmer with two cows. This is already the highest in the history of the Great Qin Dynasty. The yield per mu!"
"The yield of twenty-five shi per mu is more than eleven times that of that rewarded farmer!"
All the courtiers could not accept Wang Ying's words at all.
Because the exaggerated yield of potatoes is not like reality at all!
Ying Zheng said decisively: "Whether it is true or not, you will know when it is received."
"Meng Shangqing, order the servant to measure the acres of land here, and withdraw all Guishou."
"I want to harvest these potatoes myself, and see if the yield per mu of potatoes is as miraculous as the Marquis of Chang'an said!"
[I knew you wouldn't believe it. 】
[I have all the small benches ready, just wait to sit and watch you get slapped in the face! Ku].
