After the potatoes were distributed, every household carried large and small bags of potatoes and walked home with smiles on their faces.

"This potato is really good. I didn't expect it to be able to produce tens of thousands of pounds per acre."

"Go back quickly and try to see if this food tastes good."

"If it tastes good, I have to save some seeds no matter what. We will plant them next year, so we won't worry about people starving to death in the future."

"If all of my twenty acres of land were planted with potatoes, three seasons a year, we would have a harvest of 600,000 kilograms. Even if we eat to death, we wouldn't be able to finish it all."

Everyone was stunned when they heard what the accountant said. Are there so many?

Most people here are illiterate farmers who can't even write their own names, let alone settle accounts.

Now when they heard the number calculated by the accountant, they were all shocked.

An annual output of 600,000 catties from twenty acres of land?

"Mr. Li, can you help me calculate the annual output of twelve acres of land?"

"Yes, yes, you can do the math for me, my family has 18 acres..."

Mr. Li was in a good mood. He could do these simple calculations verbally without using an abacus.

"Twelve acres, the annual output is 360,000 catties, eighteen acres, the annual output is 540,000 catties..."

Everyone took a breath when they heard Mr. Li's calculation of the harvest.

When I looked at the potato in my hand, my eyes were already shining. Is this a potato? Is this a golden bean? ! !

Who would be willing to eat such a high-yield thing? Naturally, it is kept as seeds. After eating, it will be gone.

"Let's go for a walk and go dig wild vegetables in the mountains."

"I'll go too. I'll go too. I haven't been up the mountain for a few days. Maybe I'll grow a lot more..."

"It's already September, and some wild fruits on the mountains should be ripe."

"Many fungi are also ripe..."

"I'd better keep hunting."

"I'm going to see if there are any fish or shrimps in the water..."

Lin Shuangshuang was a little confused as she watched everyone put the potatoes at home and rush to the mountains one by one.

"What are they doing?"

"I heard that I went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and yams..."

Lin Shuangshuang was even more confused: "Aren't the potatoes enough?"

"Who would be willing to eat the golden eggs that yield ten thousand catties per acre..."

"Let's go dig some wild vegetables. If it's too late, they'll be gone."

"..."

Although a bit speechless, it is very understandable.

Such high-yielding potatoes were rare to the farmers, not to mention even the emperor.

Jinling City, Prime Minister Su’s Mansion!

When Su Changgong received the news from Qingshui Town and learned about Song Minghao's sexy tricks, he was so angry that he almost lost his temper.

This stupid pig-like thing, even though he is stupid, still does bad things in his name.

If Li Mingsi gets a handle on this, the old man like a mad dog will definitely hold on to it.

He cannot bear the crime of harming the miracle doctor. The emperor will definitely be furious!

Su Changgong immediately wrote a letter asking the people in Qingshui Town to get rid of Song Minghao.

When the time comes that there will be no evidence to prove it, this matter will have nothing to do with him.

In fact, he didn't ask Song Minghao to do such a stupid thing, he just made it difficult for the Gu family.

But Li Tianshi said that since Lin Shuangshuang married into the Gu family, the Gu family's luck has improved. If the Gu family's luck continues to improve, the Su family will be affected.

Lin Shuangshuang, we will meet!

The truth is, I want to see what you can do to help the Gu family turn around!

Su Changgong handed the letter to the housekeeper, his voice calm: "Eight hundred miles urgent!"

The eight-hundred-mile expedited message can only be used for urgent reports from the military, but this is just an ordinary letter, just to rush to Li Mingsi before he arrives in Qingshui Town.

Winter has arrived in a blink of an eye, and the weather has become dry and cold.

More than 10,000 victims in Hegou Village managed to survive the winter relying on potatoes, but problems still arose.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and those thatched houses, broken yards, and large caves cannot provide shelter from the wind and rain.

It's better when the sun comes out during the day, but it's freezing cold at night.

It was still summer when these victims came, and they didn't bring thick clothes or quilts with them at all. Now that winter has come, they can no longer survive.

The people in Hegou Village are also poor people, and there are no extra clothes or quilts to lend them, so in the past few days, there have been cases of elderly people and children getting sick.

"Daughter-in-law of the Gu family, what should we do?"

"When will the people from the court come?"

"Winter is the most difficult season. They can't survive without a place to live..."

"Hey, how long will this village be closed down?" The village chief looked sad.

After surviving such a difficult plague, he didn't want to fail to survive the winter.

In fact, the people in this village are not much better. Almost all the potatoes stored at home have been eaten, and winter is the season when no grass grows...

Lin Shuangshuang also frowned: "I have asked Hai Mingzhou to write a letter to the head of the Hai family. As long as the head of the Hai family can find a way to deliver the letter to Mr. Li, maybe people from the court can come earlier."

Village Chief Li sighed and shook his head: "It's difficult. The city gate is blocked and even a mouse can't get out. How can we send a message out?"

"It all depends on the ability of the Hai family."

"The city gate is not always closed. Doesn't Song Minghao often have contact with Magistrate Song?"

"As long as there is traffic, the city gate will be open."

"As long as the city gate is open, the Hai family will have the opportunity to go out and deliver messages... I hope the Hai family can do it."

"Will Master Hai risk offending the county magistrate to help us?"

Lin Shuangshuang nodded affirmatively: "Master Hai will definitely do it."

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because the Hai Family Master's grandson and his clan members are all in Hegou Village, he has to fight tooth and nail to save his grandson."

"What?" The village chief looked shocked.

The grandson of Doctor Poseidon is in Hegou Village?

which one?

Why didn't he know?

The village chief squinted his eyes and thought for a moment: "Are you talking about the little sea doctor who lives in your house?"

Lin Shuangshuang nodded.

"I knew he was no ordinary person the first time I saw him. He has such good medical skills and looks like a wealthy family. His name is Xiao Hai, but I didn't expect that he is the grandson of Doctor Hai."

"He has been imprisoned for such a long time, and the head of the Hai family doesn't care. Does it mean that the Hai family can't speak to the county magistrate?"

"It stands to reason that with his family background, he shouldn't be locked up here?"

Lin Shuangshuang said: "He sneaked in deliberately to force the head of the Hai family to help our village."

The village chief opened his mouth wide again, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Why does he want to help us?"

Lin Shuangshuang thought for a moment and then said: "He...the doctor is kind-hearted and can't stand the government's disregard for human life."

The village chief nodded: "Xiaohai is indeed a good doctor, young and promising, kind-hearted, brave and resourceful..."

"..."

The village chief said almost all the good words he knew. If Hai Mingzhou heard this, his tail would be raised to the sky.

Late at night, the door of the government office was knocked loudly.

"Who is it, rushing to reincarnate in the middle of the night? Knock knock knock..." The doorman yawned and cursed.

After the doorman opened the door, he realized that the person coming was the guard guarding the door, and he suddenly became nervous.

In the middle of the night, the city gate guards came to see the county magistrate. It was either a big matter or an emergency.
