For the first time, the big shots bent down to work in the fields.
They were wearing straw hats and holding sharp hoes. They clumsily dug up the sweet potatoes on the ground.
Zhao Yan took a look and felt that this pile of sweet potatoes was enough for them to make a fuss. Only then did he stand up.
After all, it was obvious that these people had never done farm work before. It was difficult for them this time.
However, there was no such thing as freeloading here at Zhao Yan's place.
"It's almost time. Let's go back and rest first.”
Hearing Zhao Yan's words, the few of them stood up and knocked their waists in unison.
Although they practiced martial arts all year round, their waist strength was not bad.
However, their old waists still couldn't bear the strain of bending over to work.
Zhao Yan put the sweet potatoes into a basket. He carried them in one hand and held the farming tools in the other. He led the few of them into the manor.
"Mr. Zhao, what kind of crops did you harvest?”
Meng Yi pointed at the bare crops not far away, leaving only a few heads in the field.
"Oh, that's rice."
"This year is the first batch. I'll treat you to a taste later.”
"Rice?"
The land in Guanzhong was basically not suitable for growing rice.
Therefore, the daily staple food of the people in Guanzhong was basically millet, wheat, and the like.
Even as the emperor, Ying Zheng rarely had rice to eat.
"You can grow rice here?"
"The soil here is indeed not suitable for growing ordinary rice," explained Zhao Yan.”
"But this is a super rice seed--”
"But I tried planting it this year, and I feel that the yield is still not up to expectations.”
"We only harvested about 800 catties per mu.”
"800 pounds?" The jaws of the three people were about to drop from shock!
Around 800?
One had to know that even in places suitable for planting rice in Jiangnan, the highest yield per mu was only about 400 jin!
Ordinary paddy fields only produced two to three hundred catties per mu!
800 catties of rice per mu! It still didn't meet his expectations!
If it met the expectations, wouldn't the yield per mu be over 500 kilograms?
Hearing Wang Jian's question, Zhao Yan nodded and said,""That's right. The expected yield per mu should be 1,200 catties.”
"Maybe the climate here is not suitable for growing rice.”
Wang Jian was so excited that he was speechless.
He swallowed his saliva and said,"Since this place is not suitable for planting, why don't we spread the seeds to Jiangnan?"”
"If it doesn't work out, when the time comes, the Bai Yue will be defeated."
Meng Yi coughed.
Only then did Wang Jian realize that he had misspoken.
He touched his head in embarrassment, but he could only touch the brim of his straw hat.
Wang Jian looked at Ying Zheng and chuckled. Ying Zheng did not blame him.
"Where did Mr. Zhao get this seed?”
Ying Zheng asked a question that struck right into his heart.
Zhao Yan was speechless.
Good fellow! It's your fault for asking this!
"I heard that some places will connect branches to other trees.”
"I wonder if the principle is the same?”
Zhao Yan wanted to give Old Zhao a thumbs up!
That's right!
This was too smart!
"The principle is indeed similar."
"However, rice seeds are a little harder than transplanting.”
"I found a good farmer. He spent many years to breed this good seed!”
"Oh? Our Great Qin has such a good farmer? I wonder if Mr. Zhao can introduce us?”Meng Yi asked with interest.
......
It would be strange if he could see it!
"After he raised the seeds this time, he went to travel.”
"Hehe, I haven't heard from him recently.”
The three of them felt a little regretful when they heard the news.
However, the protagonist who knew how to find someone to do this was right in front of him!
"If that's the case, then a person like Mr. Zhao…"
Meng Yi, who spoke on behalf of the imperial court, couldn't help but ask.
"I've already offered so many good things." Zhao Yan sighed.”
"Look at this sweet potato, this potato."
"I still have to cure the First Emperor."
"The sacrifice is already so great. The imperial court will have to use money to buy these, right?”
Meng Yi, who was thinking of a free ride, said embarrassedly,"Hehe, I want it, I want it."
"It's not good to take Mr. Zhao's things directly.”
"However, when the time comes, if the reward is given, it will definitely not only be money. The title and official position will be freely chosen by Mister Zhao.”
Zhao Yan grunted in a reserved manner and said,"Let's wait and see."
In his heart, he was calculating how much he should charge for a catty of these seeds.
This was a super rice seed!
It was much more valuable than potatoes and sweet potatoes!
Drought-resistant, high-yield, good crushing, thick stem, strong tillering ability, strong adaptability.
Most importantly, it was not easy to drop!
This was a high-grade seed that could only be obtained after many years of cultivation!
He couldn't just give it up for nothing!
When the time came, after he cured the Ancestral Dragon, he would be able to get a heavenly title.
While eating Great Qin's salary, he sold some of his toys to Big Brother Zheng.
Occasionally, they could give him some advice and watch Great Qin conquer the Nine Provinces.
Destroy all those outsiders!
He was rich and had a high status. He married dozens of concubines and had fun every night.
This way, he didn't have to do anything at all!
Moreover, he did not have to worry about it!
Just thinking about this life, Zhao Yan felt very happy!
Zhao Yan was currently imagining his beautiful life in the future.
Wang Jian then pointed at a bull walking towards them and asked,""Mr. Zhao, why is this cow's nose pierced?”
"This is torturing the cattle!"
Then, he lowered his voice and said,"You have to hide it well. Don't let outsiders see it.”
"Otherwise, if we are reported to the government, we will go to jail!”
