"Your Highness, I want one. If you don't agree, I will leave today and stay in the manor to eat and drink.”Old Cheng grabbed Li Bawang's arm and said shamelessly.

How could Old Cheng not be tempted after seeing the modern broadsword in the box that Li Bawang brought?

Previously, he only had one, and he had given it to Yuchi. He couldn't ask Li Bawang for it, but now that he had so many, he had to shamelessly get one.

This guy was known as Old Devil Cheng, and his pestering skills had long been as pure as fire.

"Hahaha, I gave Brother Charcoal one, so how could I not give you, Demon Cheng?”Bawang Li laughed.

"Hahahaha!" Old Cheng also laughed happily and said,""Charcoal, are you talking about that old thief Yuchi? Haha, Charcoal, this is good."

"You Old Thief Cheng, it's very appropriate for His Highness to call you Old Demon Cheng.”Deputy General Wei glared at Demon Cheng. If it wasn't for the fact that the situation wasn't right, he and Old Cheng would probably have put on a full-on martial arts show.

Li Qing and the others laughed as well. They ignored Old Cheng and Li Bawang. They only felt that Li Bawang had become more real at this moment. He was no longer as ethereal as before.

Li Bawang smiled bitterly and handed a saber to Old Cheng. Then, he picked up another saber and handed it to Li Qing.

This was an existence known as the God of War Tang Ge.

"Brother Medicine Master, how can you not have Tang Ge, the God of War?”Li Bawang joked.

"San Lang, you flatter me. I don't deserve the title of Tang Ge's God of War.”Li Qing said humbly.

After being humble, he happily took the saber.

Li Bawang's face was full of smiles."It seems that it was very wise to bring some modern steel knives.”

Then, he distributed the remaining blades to the other generals.

Especially Qin Jing. He was very popular in Tang Ge's history. Even in the modern world, he was well-known as a door god.

After dividing the sabers, the last one left was a more exquisite and gorgeous horizontal saber. It was naturally left for Li Er. The others also saw it and did not have any intention of taking it.

Then, Li Bawang took out the other things.

Seeds, yes, those that had already sprouted.

He placed a potato on the table and began to introduce it,"This thing is called potato, a new crop. However, it doesn't pick the land. Even if it's sand or dry land, it can produce a lot of food. The yield per mu is very high. If it's planted in good land and taken good care of, it shouldn't be a problem to produce 3,000 catties.”

The yield per mu he mentioned was still considered low. This was a high-yield potato brought over from the modern era. However, considering the deterioration of the seeds, fertilizers, and the lack of pesticide, he could only say that it was low. Otherwise, it would be awkward if he did not reach the target.

Moreover, he had to consider various factors such as the deterioration of the seeds in the future.

However, when he saw that everyone was confused and did not understand the unit of measurement, Li Bawang remembered that the unit of measurement in the Tang Dynasty was a load, so he had to convert it and continue.

"In other words, the yield per mu can reach at least 20 to 30 piculs. Also, this thing is very durable. Of course, it's fine as food, but it's mainly used as a vegetable. After all, it's too crude to make food.”

After Li Bawang finished speaking, he threw the potato back into the box and prepared to pat the soil off his hand.

"Your Highness, you can't."

A series of anxious exclamations stunned Li Bawang. At the same time, he saw a figure flash past, followed by the sound of a collision with the ground.

The house shook with a bang.

The person who crashed into the ground was Deputy General Wei. He caught the potato that Li Bawang had thrown into the box firmly in his hand.

After seeing the deputy general catch the potato, the person who had exclaimed just now heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he looked at Li Bawang with a resentful but not daring gaze.

Li Bawang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

After the lieutenant general carefully placed the potatoes into the box, he raised his voice and complained loudly,"Your Highness, this, how can you treat such a divine item like this?”

"Yes, although it's a little small, if we plant it and keep it growing slowly, in five years, no, ten years, I, Tang Ge, will never starve to death.”

Fang Xuanzi walked over to the chest and looked at the potatoes. As he spoke, tears streamed down his face, and his voice began to tremble.

Alright, Li Bawang's modern mentality had forgotten that this was the Tang Dynasty, the ancient times.

Food was life to the ancient people.

"Everyone, calm down and listen to me.”Li Bawang said helplessly after he came back to his senses.

"Potato isn't that fragile. Moreover, one of the ways to grow it is to cut a potato into many pieces and plant them separately. There's no need for everyone to be so nervous.”

However, his words did not have much effect. Fang Xuanzi and the others were calculating in their minds. If they cut the potatoes in the box and planted them, there would definitely be a lot more. This was simply a blessing.

Li Bawang shook his head and said helplessly,""Actually, I can bring back this kind of crop, but I can't bring it back indefinitely. However, it's not a problem to plant a few dozen acres of land. After harvesting, there will be enough seeds.”

"Really?" Fang Xuanzi stood up with a whoosh and looked at Li Bawang excitedly.

What else could Li Bawang say? He could only nod. He thought to himself that he would have to transport more potatoes in the future. However, he immediately remembered that there was still corn in the box, so he hurriedly took it out.

He picked up a bag of germinated corn seeds and said,""This is also a type of crop called corn. If it's taken good care of, it can produce about ten catties per mu.”

His words instantly ignited the entire room. The vice-general and the others exclaimed, God bless me, Tang Ge."
