There was a pause.

Ying Zheng continued with a complicated expression.

[Ying Zheng]: However, the people of Xu can still eat their stomachs.

His words.

The people of the original world were shocked.

How is this possible!

A great drought fell from the sky, and the entire Qin Kingdom was in a famine.

Can your people still be fed?

pictured.

The Qin Kingdom, which changed the world, also suffered from a great drought.

The same.

Ying Zheng took his courtiers to the countryside to inspect the cultivated land.

Under the scorching sun.

All walk between heaven and earth.

Looking at the vast land, Ying Zheng’s brows frowned slightly.

“There is a drought in the sky.”

He sighed deeply.

As a king.

It is necessary to pay attention to the weather.

Side.

The township chief in charge of grain taxes also introduced.

“Great King.”

“It should have rained in the season, but it didn’t rain for two months.”

“The minister predicts that this year’s grain production will be greatly reduced.”

Smell this.

The sadness on Ying Zheng’s face was a little thicker.

“So, a sweet potato that yields six thousand per acre can only yield two thousand per acre?”

Side.

The township chief nodded.

“According to what the eldest son said, if the rain is abundant and can produce 3,000 acres, then in today’s drought, it can only produce 600 acres.”

Hear this.

Ying Zheng was suddenly heartbroken.

Three thousand changes and six hundred!

It’s so painful!

But.

Conversations with several people.

Heard by the people of the original world.

When they heard that sweet potatoes could yield 3,000 acres, everyone would be suspicious.

【Huhai】: What is a sweet potato?

[Xia Wuhe]: Three thousand mu? How is this possible!

[Li Si]: The people’s rice yields only 200 catties per acre, how can there be 3,000 catties of grain per acre in the world?

[Zhao Gao]: Fake! What sweet potatoes are, I have never heard of them!

The same.

Ying Zheng is also full of coercion.

Three thousand catties per acre?!

My culture is not low, don’t lie to me, is this particularly possible?

[Ying Zheng]: It’s the first time I’ve heard of such a thing as sweet potatoes, is it really so amazing?

……………..

Change the world.

See the other person questioning.

Ying Zheng smiled slightly.

[Ying Zheng]: Sweet potatoes are a new food that Ze’er happened to find when he went out to play, and after Ze’er improved it, he could produce 3,000 catties per acre.

In the picture.

It’s time to harvest grain.

Ying Zheng came to inspect again.

Saw.

In the crop fields, the cultivated land with red paths and green leaves was dug up by the people.

Attached to the vine are all red fruits.

Although they are not as big and round as the sweet potatoes shown by Zhao Ze, even these small sweet potatoes already look very gratifying!

Sweet potatoes for the first time.

The people were also extremely shocked.

Initially.

Gongzi Zhao Ze said that this sweet potato can produce three thousand catties per acre, and they didn’t believe it.

Now.

Harvest from acre.

Roughly weighed!

It was as high as more than six hundred catties!

This number is really terrifying!

The rice that the people usually plant, the annual output of one acre of land, is only 250 catties.

But this sweet potato!

The mu yield is more than twice that of rice!

It is also important to note that:

This is the 600 catties obtained in the environment of severe drought and a great reduction in grain production!

Other words.

Instead of famine, the people are not famine now.

It also ushered in a double harvest!

Come to the scale.

Huan Zheng asked with a happy face: “How, how much grain has been harvested in this acre?” ”

The old farmer picking sweet potatoes said with joy.

“Go back to the king!”

“Just after weighing, the grain of this acre of land has been harvested six hundred and fifty catties!”

“The acre of land next to it has collected five hundred and eighty catties!”

“Plant this sweet potato, one acre of land, two acres of rice on top!”

The old farmer was overly excited.

I don’t even want to pay much attention to Ying Zheng, I just want to quickly move my sweet potatoes home.

“Wait, give the widow a taste.”

Ying Zheng hurriedly stopped the other party.

The old farmer was in a good mood, and he didn’t care at the moment, and took the smallest sweet potato and handed it to Ying Zheng.

Stare at the soil-stained sweet potatoes in your hands.

Ying Zheng swallowed his saliva.

He hadn’t eaten sweet potatoes in months.

Last time.

It was still Zhao Ze who cut a small piece for him to taste in order to reassure him.

Otherwise.

He couldn’t eat a single bite.

It is precisely because he has tasted the taste of sweet potatoes that Huan Zheng is relieved and began to promote sweet potatoes in the Qin Kingdom.

“King, this is a sweet potato?”

Zhao Gao secretly swallowed his saliva.

Originally.

But he watched with his own eyes that Zhao Ze fed a piece of sweet potato to Ying Zheng.

Look at Ying Zheng’s amazed expression.

Zhao Gao knew.

Sweet potatoes are definitely a good thing, at least they taste good!

So many people present.

Except for Huan Zheng and Zhao Ze, no one has only heard of it, but has not eaten it.

See the aspirations of everyone.

Huan Zheng broke the sweet potato into several small pieces and gave them to Li Si and Zhao Gao.

And then.

Simply wiped the dirt.

Ying Zheng took a big bite!

Suddenly.

Splash with juices!

The entrance is crisp!

And there is also the aroma and sweetness of cassava!

Suddenly.

All the monarchs were wide-eyed, and green light appeared in their eyes.

To know.

In ancient times, when materials were scarce.

Sugar is a rarity!

It takes a lot of grain to refine it.

A pinch of sugar.

It often costs more than a dozen pounds of food!

Ordinary people can’t afford to eat.

But this sweet potato.

One acre of land produces 600 catties, each of which is sweet!

In their eyes, nature is a rare good thing!
