Daming: Teach the prince about dragon slaying skills at the beginning

At this moment, no matter whether it is Zhu Yuanzhang, or the princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, etc., or a group of civil and military officials, they have completely lost the elegance, etiquette, and bearing of the past, and all of them are covered with mud. , looking embarrassed.

However, no one would care about such things at this moment. All the civil and military officials were sitting in the field, looking at the piles of potatoes piled up beside the fields, all of them were stunned and dull.

Zhu Yuanzhang, on the other hand, looked like an old peasant with a bumper harvest, holding the scale prepared by Yan Changqing in his hand, and was weighing every potato handed over by the princes such as Zhu Xi, Zhu Yu, Zhu Di, etc. one by one.

On the other side, Zhu Biao also held the paper and pen prepared in advance, and recorded the number of potatoes 537 and the total weight of these potatoes.

Zhu Yuanzhang weighed all the potatoes one by one from noon until the afternoon, before he finished weighing and counting all the potatoes.

"Father, there are a total of 260 large and small potatoes, and the total yield per mu is 36 shi!!!"

Zhu Biao reported to Zhu Yuanzhang with an extremely excited expression.

Yan Changqing on the altar raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard Zhu Biao's report on the total number of potatoes and the yield per mu, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Three thousand 260 eight potatoes, 36 shi, that is to say, there are four thousand 320 catties of potatoes.

It turned out that based on the initial number of potatoes, the number of potatoes in the second crop should be about [-], and the total yield per mu should be [-] shi, which is about [-] catties.

But now both the total quantity of potatoes and the total yield per mu are much higher than expected at the beginning.

But after thinking about it, in the past six months, I have also obtained the most primitive chemical fertilizers through retting, and applied them to the potato fields, and in the past six months, a group of old farmers have been taking care of them day and night.

Now there are 320 catties of potatoes produced, which is also a normal harvest.

After all, the average and normal yield of potatoes per mu in later generations is around [-] to [-] catties.

If high-quality varieties are selected, various fertilizers are applied to increase production, and scientific and careful management and care are taken, the yield per mu of potatoes can even reach [-] to [-] catties! ! !

But now, with the most crude chemical fertilizers and the most meticulous management and care, he can only reach the normal yield of ordinary potatoes in later generations, and it is not even the highest yield in the normal yield.

This kind of yield per mu is really not something for him to be proud of.

Thinking of this, Yan Changqing's originally surprised mood returned to calm again.

......

Chapter 248: Zhu Yuanzhang Divides Potato Shreds, Nine for the Duke 【Please subscribe, please order in full】

It's just that Yan Changqing could keep calm, but everyone present couldn't.

From Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, princes Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Yu, Zhu Di and other princes, to Wei Guogong Xu Da, Xin Guogong Tang He, Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Zheng Guogong Chang Mao, Song Lian, down to Other civil and military officials.

All fell into a state of blank mind.

36 stone!

36 stones per mu! !

An unprecedented grain yield of 36 shi per mu! ! !

Does such auspicious food really exist in the world? ! !

In this era of an average grain yield of two stones per mu, if a harvest of three stones per mu suddenly appeared.

Those are all political achievements worthy of local officials' special memorials to the central government and the emperor.

The central government and the emperor will definitely give rewards to such things to show their appreciation and encouragement.

If there can be a grain output of four stones per mu, then this must be auspicious! ! !

This grain yield of up to four stones per mu will definitely be packaged and sent to the capital without missing a single grain, as a tribute to the emperor! ! !

And the local officials who have made such auspicious achievements under the rule, at least they will be promoted to the rank of a first-rank or second-rank official! ! !

This is the importance of high-yield food in this era.

Now the output of 36 stones per mu and 320 catties of potatoes is [-] times that of the normal yield of two stones per mu, twelve times that of the abnormal high-yield three stones, and nine times that of the four stones of auspiciousness. times! ! !

This kind of grain output is definitely an unprecedented dimensionality reduction blow in this era! ! !

"36 stone..."

"36 stone..."

"36 stone..."

......

Zhu Yuanzhang repeated subconsciously in his mouth.

Although he knew before that that the yield per mu of potatoes must be extremely astonishing, but because Yan Changqing had been repeatedly emphasizing that the yield per mu should be at least [-] shi, Zhu Yuanzhang expected the yield of potatoes this time to be [-] shi per mu.

At most, on the basis of 23 stones, imagine if there will be a high yield of 24 stones, 25 stones, or even [-] stones.

But no matter how extravagantly he imagined, Zhu Yuanzhang never imagined that the yield of potatoes per mu would reach 36 shi, or even exceed [-] shi, reaching an astonishing [-] shi! ! !

Empress Ma felt faintly dizzy now, relying on Zhu Yuanzhang to barely keep from falling to the ground.

"It turns out that what Mr. Yan said about the maximum yield of [-] shi per mu of potatoes is true!!!"

Zhu Biao looked at the mountains of potatoes piled up like hills in front of him, and muttered to himself with great excitement.

He remembered that Yan Changqing had said before that the highest yield per mu of potatoes could even reach a shocking [-] shi! ! !

And he also knew that when the potatoes were planted half a year ago, there were not many potato seeds.

So strictly speaking, in fact, the number of potatoes that can be planted in this one-acre potato field has not reached the limit, and more potatoes can be planted.

If this acre of potato field is really planted with potato seeds, it may not be impossible to achieve an yield of [-] shi per mu! ! !

"36 stone?!｀ 々!"

At this moment, King Zhu of Qin also had an unreal look on his face, and couldn't help pinching his thigh. After feeling the severe pain from his thigh, he just nodded numbly. Stone, it's true.

"The people of the world will no longer have to worry about famine!!!"

Jin Wang Zhu Yan also couldn't restrain the excitement on his face.

"With this potato, it is enough to extend the Ming dynasty for another hundred years!!!"

King Zhu Di of Yan was also in an extremely excited mood. He knew very well that as long as the people in the world could have enough to eat, there would not be many people willing to rebel.

And as long as the people don't rebel, then the country and society of the Ming Dynasty can continue forever! ! !

"I didn't expect that the yield per mu of potatoes we guessed before was all wrong."

King Zhu of Zhou also said with a smile on his face.

Although they didn't guess the bet before, but this kind of guess is good!Even more, he can bear it.

"At first I thought that the output of 28 shimu I guessed was already bold, but I didn't expect the reality to be even bolder than I thought."

Zhu Zhen, king of Chu, said half depressed and half happy.

"Guess what 28 shi is, I guessed the highest [-] shi, and the result is still six shi behind the actual yield per mu!!!"

Qi Wang Zhu Mi rolled his eyes and said in a bad mood.

Song Lian had already sat down on the ground at this moment, looking at the mountain of potatoes, or several mountains of potatoes, he kept muttering to himself:

"Auspicious!!!"

"Auspicious!!!"

"Heavenly auspiciousness!!!"

Wei Guogong Xu Da, Zheng Guogong Chang Mao, Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Xin Guogong Tang He and other military officers and nobles cried and laughed with excitement.

This is countless times more exciting than their victory! !

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang, who came back to his senses, suddenly looked at Xu Da, Li Wenzhong, Feng Sheng, Tang He and others with piercing eyes and ordered:

"Tiande and Zongyi, immediately take my order to mobilize 30 Beijing troops to surround this place, and not even half a fly can be let in or out!!!"

"Siben, Dingchen, immediately martial law here. From now on, anyone who dares to act recklessly will be killed first and then played!!!"

Xu Da and Feng Sheng immediately bowed their hands to accept the order and responded loudly:

"Follow the order!!!"

Then Xu Da and Feng Sheng held Zhu Yuanzhang's troop transfer token, immediately found the horse closest to them, got on the horse, and galloped straight towards the barracks where the 30 Beijing troops were located.

Li Wenzhong, Tang He also responded solemnly:

"Yes, Your Majesty!!!"

Immediately, Li Wenzhong took over the supreme command of the left and right army, and Tang He also took over the command of Wan Jin Yiwei on the field.

Hou Lanyu of Yongchang, Fu Youde of Yingchuan Hou, Muying of Xiping and other military generals and honorable marquises were all dressed up, facing several piles of potatoes with their backs, with horizontal knives in their hands and spears gleaming coldly.

And the left and right government troops outside are also in a state of facing the enemy at this moment.

Knife out!Saddle up now!String the bow!

Teams of left and right government soldiers patrolled back and forth with murderous aura. At this moment, anyone who approached hundreds of feet around the Agricultural College for no reason, they would kill them all! ! !

On the altar, Yan Changqing looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was groping here and there around the potato hills, and said from a distance:

"Your Majesty, since the potatoes have been harvested in abundance, you should try them and let the civil and military officials and the people of the world know that potatoes are edible."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was in front of Tudou Mountain not far away, heard Yan Changqing's words, and immediately refused without looking back:

"No need, we've eaten it before. The potatoes are edible, so there's no need to try them."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to accept Yan Changqing's proposal at all.

The potatoes in front of me are the hope that everyone in Ming Dynasty can have a full stomach in the future.

If one more potato is eaten now, dozens or hundreds of potatoes will be reduced in the future, and the time to spread it to the whole world of Ming Dynasty will be a little later.

Such a thing was undoubtedly extremely unacceptable to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Seeing this scene, Yan Changqing didn't know that Zhu Yuanzhang's pettiness had flared up again.

Immediately, Yan Changqing shook his head helplessly and said:

"The output of this bumper harvest is much more than what we estimated at the beginning. Even if we take some to try and eat, it will not affect the original potato planting promotion plan."

"Also, except for His Majesty, no one else has ever really eaten potatoes. How can civil and military officials in the future be able to rest assured that potatoes are edible and spread them to the common people all over the world?!"

Although the civil and military officials present had never really met Yan Changqing before, they nodded again and again when they heard what Yan Changqing said.

After all, it is auspicious food with an yield of 36 shi per mu. Who wouldn't want to try it and taste what it tastes like! ! !

Hearing Yan Changqing's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression also became hesitant.

After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang just picked and picked among the mountains of potatoes, and picked out five potatoes that were not of good quality, but all of them weighed more than a catty. He said with a heartache and reluctance:

"`ˇThen eat these, or make vinegar potato shreds!!!"

Yan Changqing nodded, saying that it doesn't matter, and he doesn't need to do it anyway.

During the three months when Zhu Yuanzhang lived in the Agricultural College, Zhu Biao also transferred a group of royal cooks from the palace to the Agricultural College to be in charge of the meals for Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma.

After Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma went back later, Zhu Biao, the imperial chef, did not transfer them back, but instead let them stay in the Agricultural College.

Immediately, an imperial chef with the best knife skills, heat, and cooking skills directly used the best knife skills and best cooking skills in his life directly on the temporary open-air stove.

But after a while, a fried vinegar potato shreds was successfully completed under the fearful situation of the chef.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the huge plate of shredded potatoes, glanced at all the civil and military officials present, looked at their longing eyes, thought for a while and said:

"Seventh-rank officials will be given two potato shreds; sixth-rank (Li Haozhao) officials will be given three potato shreds...second-rank officials will be given seven potato shreds; first-rank officials will be given seven potato shreds Eight!"

"For the duke, get nine shredded potatoes; for the marquis, get seven shredded potatoes...for the baron, get two shredded potatoes!"

"The rest, we share with the queen, princes and saints!!!"

Following Zhu Yuanzhang's distribution, there were no more than ten shredded potatoes on each of the huge round plates, and a maid handed them to the hands of civil and military officials.

Even Xu Da and Feng Sheng, who were leading the 30 Beijing army outside, had special servants who packed their portion of shredded potatoes in lunch boxes and sent them over.

Yan Changqing looked at the dozen or so shredded potatoes in front of him, smiled helplessly, and then ate them all with one chopstick without even thinking about it.

After scanning around, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, Empress Ma, Prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fang, Zhu Di and other princes, as well as other civil and military officials.

They are all slowly tasting luck with their eyes closed, as if they are tasting some rare and exotic fruits.

A single piece of potato shreds can be held in the mouth for a few quarters of an hour without being willing to swallow it.

Yan Changqing, who saw this scene, didn't know what to say.
