The next day,
Ye Yun had not yet gotten up when he heard the noise of footsteps outside.
He looked up,
Ye Yun was also frightened by the situation in front of him.
Li Shimin led the way, followed by Zhangsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and the other big shots. After him were Wei Zheng, Wang Gui, and the other remonstrants. There were also some officials whose names Ye Yun could not name.
If nothing unexpected happened, Li Shiming had moved the entire imperial court here!
"Your Majesty, in this world…is there really a crop that can produce 6,000 catties per mu?”
Fang Xuanling couldn't help but say in a trembling voice.
Just now, Li Shimin had mentioned that there was a magical crop called potatoes that could produce 4,000 to 6,000 catties per mu. Now that the potatoes were ripe, he wanted to bring them to take a look.
This news shocked everyone!
A yield of 4,000 to 6,000 catties per mu, what kind of miraculous crop was this?
"That's it!"
Li Shi Min pointed at Potato, who was surrounded by the Thousand Bull Guards.
"This…Where is the fruit?"
Looking at the strange green crops, Fang Xuanling estimated in his heart and smiled bitterly."Your Majesty, don't deceive this old minister. Even if this crop can be eaten, it can only produce 60 to 70 catties per mu at most. Sigh!"
Fang Xuanling let out a long sigh.
"Old Fang, do you want to make a bet?”
Cheng Yaojin rubbed his hands and chuckled."If you can produce 6000 catties per mu, you owe me 1000 strings of money. How about it?”
"You bastard, this old man won't gamble with you!”
Fang Xuanling looked at Cheng Yaojin cautiously. He knew how shameless this guy was, but then he looked up at Li Shiming.
"Cheng Yaojin never does business that loses money. Could it be that…he can really produce 6,000 catties per mu?”
"Hahaha!"
Li Shi Min laughed heartily and was in a good mood." I don't know if we can produce 6000 catties per mu. Why don't…let the state preceptor speak!" This was a divine fruit that the state teacher had obtained from overseas!”
Seeing that Li Shiming had shifted the topic to him, he felt a bit helpless. He carefully identified the leaves of the potato and nodded slightly,
"Now, you've matured!"
Then, he waved his hand and said to Cheng Yaojin," Follow my method and dig this potato out.”
"Yes!"
Cheng Yaojin cupped his hands and said happily.
After taking care of the potatoes day and night for nearly a month, Cheng Yaojin had developed a relationship with these potatoes.
At this moment, he was personally taking action, so he was naturally in high spirits!
Rolling up his sleeves, Cheng Yaojin loosened the soil and then pulled out a potato root along the root.
Crash!
In a row, four to five potatoes were pulled out.
"It's actually…a fruit?"
Fang Xuanling was surprised. He approached Cheng Yaojin and took a potato from him. He wiped the potato with his sleeve and bit into it.
It was extremely crispy in the mouth, and there was also a sweet taste that lingered in the mouth.
Furthermore, Fang Xuanling felt his stomach, which had been protesting since he hadn't eaten breakfast, ease up a lot after eating one.
This…
Fang Xuanling looked around and saw the yellowish leaves of the potatoes. He was instantly shocked." This thing…actually helps me fill my stomach?”
"Fang Xuanling, you bastard!"
Before he could be pleasantly surprised, he heard a loud shout. Then, he saw Cheng Yaojin's angry and wide-eyed posture. He was shocked.
"Zhijie, what…happened to you?”
Fang Xuanling subconsciously trembled, and he couldn't even speak properly!
"Do you know how many fruits can be produced from this potato in a month? Ah!" Cheng Yaojin roared.
"What…what is the meaning of this?"
Fang Xuanling was dumbfounded.
"Sigh, Minister Fang might not know, but this potato…is cut into small pieces and planted in the soil. After a month, it will ripen again!”
Li Shi Min sighed and said,
"In other words, the potato you just ate is enough to feed a family for half a month!”
"Ah?"
Fang Xuanling's hands trembled, and a horrified expression appeared on his face." It's actually…such a divine item?”
"But even so, this plant can bear four to five fruits. The yield per mu is about 2,000 catties, not even 6,000…"
At this moment, Du Ruhui, who had been silent all this while, spoke up.
"Hmm?"
Li Shi Min was stunned and hesitated." Maybe this one is an exception. Zhijie, pull out the rest!"”
"Yes!"
Cheng Yaojin rolled up his sleeves again, then called over a dozen Thousand Bull Guards to work together.
Soon, he pulled out the roots of the potatoes.
"Let's do these first. Come and help me weigh them!”
Cheng Yaojin patted the soil off his hands and said.
"Yes!"
The few Thousand Bull Guards accepted the order and then took out the gunny sack and large scale that they had prepared beforehand.
"125 jin!"
"346 jin!"
"1200 jin!"
……
Soon, he received a number.
"This…2230 jin?”
Cheng Yaojin was a little confused. This…how could it only be two thousand jin?!
