The person weighing the weight was trembling, and his face was filled with confusion, as if he had ascended to heaven.
When the county governor saw him like this, he was so anxious that he hurriedly ran to this person and went to take a look himself.
However, after he finished reading it, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He stood there and looked even worse than the person weighing him.
"How many catties?"
"That's right. How many catties is it? Sir, please tell us quickly.”
"We haven't dug out the ones in our fields yet. If there are many, we have to hurry up.”
As he said this, the county governor seemed to have woken up from a dream. He turned around with an excited expression.
"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"
With just these four words, everyone understood what everyone meant.
His Majesty had lived for ten thousand years. This was a very common sentence. It would be a very common sentence no matter when.
However, in this meaningless moment, it was filled with a different meaning.
That was, the potatoes would definitely be harvested!
In fact, everyone knew without looking at the results that under such circumstances, the potatoes would definitely be harvested because so many people had dug for so long.
Just by looking at these things, such a large volume was enough to make people feel shocked.
It was definitely not less than 3,000 catties.
The Prefectural Governor laughed heartily and said,""Hahahahaha, everyone, we've harvested 4,500 catties of potatoes!”
"A total of 4500 jin!"
"Gulong!"
The sound of someone gulping could be heard in an instant. However, the surrounding people did not laugh at him because this was too terrifying. This was a terrifying number.
Four thousand five hundred jin?
This was a few thousand kilograms more than the food they had grown before!
Everyone went crazy.
Even if this thing wasn't very delicious, as long as it could be eaten, as long as it wasn't harmful to the body, as long as it could fill one's stomach and not starve to death, it was good!
Moreover, according to the news from the higher-ups, there were many ways to eat this thing, and it was quite delicious.
The Prefectural Governor waved his hand and looked at everyone.""Everyone, everyone can take back a potato. Someone will tell you how to cook it later.”
"These potatoes can be made into potato cakes, fried potatoes, steamed potatoes, and boiled potatoes.”
"And they're all quite delicious. Everyone, go back and try them first.”
"Eat your fill first before you have the strength to work!”

Xianyang City, Zhangtai Palace
Ying Zheng sat there with a complicated look on his face. He was waiting for the potatoes that Zhao Gao had brought over from Xianyang City.
Even though he was quite confident in the potatoes, he did not know how many potatoes could be grown in Great Qin's environment.
After a while, footsteps sounded and Zhao Gao walked in from not far away.
"Your Majesty, the potatoes are ripe.”
"The information we have received so far is that Xianyang City has harvested 4,898 catties of potatoes. As for the other places, the difference is not bad.”
"Each mu of land is a few thousand catties. The commoners could finally live a good life.”
Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng finally felt completely relieved.
He smiled lightly,"This is good."”
"Zhao Gao, you can be considered a chef. I want to eat hotpot. As for the base, you don't have to worry.”
Zhao Gao looked at Ying Zheng in surprise, with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"Here."
Zhao Gao went down to prepare the hotpot, while Ying Zheng sat there, waiting.
He cupped his chin in his hand. After coming to Great Qin, he had finally heard the first piece of news. Now, he could start his plan.
......
Bai family
The Bai Family Head's face was gloomy. He held the cup in his hand and actually crushed it forcefully. His face was gloomy.
"Potato, potato, damn it!"
His face was filled with anger. Although he fawned over the First Emperor on the surface, he did not plant many potatoes behind his back.
He was still planting other seeds. Now that the yield of potatoes was hundreds of times that of other grains, the grain in his hands would soon be worthless.
The Bai family relied on food to make a fortune. If the price of food fell, what should they do?
How could he make a fortune?
"Go and invite Mr. Li over. Tell him that I have something important to discuss with him.”
"Please do me the honor."
"Here."
Zhangtai Palace
Zhao Gao ordered his men to bring in the items one by one. Ying Zheng, Wang Jian, and Li Si sat in the hall.
Ying Zheng pointed at the pot in the middle and said with a smile,""Zhao Gao came up with this method of eating. I think it's quite interesting, so I called all of you over to try it.”
Although Wang Jian and Li Si were surprised by this new way of eating, they were still excited and lucky.
One had to know that although eating with the king was not a rare thing, this kind of private banquet was rare!
This meant that they were the Emperor's most trusted people!
Ying Zheng picked up a piece of beef from the plate next to him, then put it into the pot that was filled with spicy oil.
After a moment, he picked it up and put it into his mouth.
Most of Great Qin's cattle were farm cattle, which were even more delicious than vegetable cattle. Their meat was even more chewy.
As soon as it entered his mouth, Ying Zheng closed his eyes and enjoyed it.
It had been a long time since he had eaten something like this. He used to be a hotpot maniac and would definitely eat hotpot once every three days.
Li Si and Wang Jian, who were standing at the side, also cupped their hands in greeting, and then began to eat like Ying Zheng.
While eating, Ying Zheng said,""Li Si, I asked you to study the reform previously. Have you finished?”
Just as Li Si was about to put down the food in his hand and reply, Ying Zheng waved his hand and told him to continue eating.
"The essence of eating hotpot is to talk while eating. If you're reserved, you're going against the meaning of eating hotpot.”
Li Si then picked up some food and said as he ate,""Your Majesty, I've already done most of my research.”
"Among them, the most important thing is to measure all the land of the clan clearly, and then take these lands as the country.”
"This step is the most complicated, the most difficult, and the most important.”
"Whether the entire national plan can be realized depends on whether this step can succeed at this time.”
"If it succeeds, there will be no more resistance to the reform. If it fails, I'm afraid that this reform will also fail.”
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes, enjoying the delicious food in his mouth.
"So, do you think this time will succeed or fail?”
