It was only half a month after Zhu Xiong brought his men back to his fief.
Zhu Rong's reputation rose with the tide.
In the entire northwest, the name of King Su, Zhu Xi, had already reached the point where everyone knew of him.
This was because whenever Prince Su's name was mentioned, the first thing that came to the minds of the northwestern men was their wives.
Nowadays, there was a saying in the northwest: If you don't have a wife, look for King Su.
In the entire Northwest Border Army, Prince Su's name was on the same level as Yue Lao's.
Zhu Rong was helpless about this.
There was nothing he could do about it. Who asked him to encounter such a system?
Now, Zhu Xiong's subjects were increasing at a rate of nearly 4,000 people per day.
If it was possible, he was willing to directly give wives to these border soldiers in the northwest.
As for reputation, Zhu Xiong didn't care about it at all.
Fortunately, after half a month of hard work, the 40,000 mu of wasteland in Zhu Rong's fief had all been dug up.
He had already planted all the potatoes that he had exchanged from the system store.
However, Zhu Rong realized that he had thought too simply.
Let's not talk about anything else.
Even if he exchanged for seven kilograms of potatoes and cut them all into pieces to plant, it would only be a drop in the bucket.
According to Zhu Xiong's calculations.
One mu of land required 300 catties of potato seeds. 40,000 mu of land required at least 12 million catties.
Converting it to kilograms, it would require six million kilograms.
If he were to calculate it into points, he would need six million points!
It would take nearly ten years.
Heavens!
Ten years!
At that time, Zhu Xiong's subjects had already exceeded 600 million, close to 700 million!
He had just planted potatoes on his 40,000 mu of land.
Wouldn't that be too late?
The problem of food was something that Zhu Xiong had to solve immediately.
Although the female subjects in the fief now had the help of the border troops in the northwest.
It could make Zhu Rong relax for two days.
However, this was definitely not a long-term solution.
After all, the population was increasing every day.
As for the male subjects, they could quickly produce another batch.
As for the female subjects.
One had to know that there were only 180,000 soldiers in the entire northwest border army.
There were only so many people.
Wasn't the problem still there?
Moreover, Zhu Rong could feel that if he couldn't find a way to solve the food problem at the root, he would be able to get rid of the problem.
The longer he waited, the greater the pressure he felt.
In the beginning, the system only rewarded 100 subjects.
In just over a month, the system had rewarded nearly 4,000 subjects every day!
In a few more months, the number of subjects rewarded every day would exceed ten thousand!
Zhu Rong trembled just thinking about it.
Helpless, Zhu Xiong could only open the system store and find a solution.
He looked at his points. After using 700 points, he had increased it to 100 points in the past few days.
Zhu Xiong could only look at the 100-point item.
After looking at the mall for a long time, Zhu Xiong turned his attention to the two products, ripening fertilizer and growth feed.
100 points for one ton.
It seemed pretty good.
Zhu Rong clicked on it and checked the detailed information of the two products.
[Ripening fertilizer: Quickly ripens crops. It can speed up the growth of crops by ten times.]
[Rapid Growth Feed: Can increase the growth rate of livestock and poultry by five times.]
At this moment, Zhu Rong's eyes were wide open.
F * ck, ten times acceleration, five times growth!
Wasn't this the divine weapon that Zhu Xiong had been dreaming of?
Damn it, why didn't he notice it earlier?
With the two-month growth period of potatoes, wouldn't it only take six to seven days to ripen if they used this ripening fertilizer?
The fast-growing feed could also allow him to raise livestock and poultry on a large scale.
F * ck, Zhu Xiong felt that he had really lost his mind.
If he had looked closely at these products before, he would not have been so anxious!
He even made himself think blindly all day.
Seeing the solution, Zhu Xiong didn't hesitate to use his remaining points to exchange for a ton of ripening fertilizer.
With these fertilizers, he could solve the food crisis as quickly as possible.
Soon, Zhu Xiong arranged for people to sprinkle the fertilizer on the potato seedlings planted in the fief.
Then, he waited patiently.
Time flew by, and seven days had passed.
In seven days, the number of subjects in Zhu Xiong's territory increased once again.
It had been forty-five days since Zhu Rong had obtained the system.
Other than the 37,000 male subjects that Zhu Xiong had sent away, the number of male subjects that he had sent away was still very low.
There were 14,200 more male subjects in Zhu Rong's fief.
Other than the female subjects who were taken away as wives, there were only about 30,000 left.
In other words, in just half a month, Zhu Xiong had solved the life of more than 20,000 bachelors in the Northwest Border Army.
There were still 44,000 subjects in Zhu Xiong's territory.
The population pressure increased again.
The demand for daughters-in-law in the Gan Province border guards was basically saturated.
The remaining Northwest Border Army was rushing towards Zhu Rong's fief.
However, the northwest of Great Ming was so big after all. Wanting to rush over in a short period of time was definitely impossible.
Thus, Zhu Xiong's pressure increased once again.
Fortunately, the first batch of potatoes in the fief had finally ripened.
Even though he only planted one mu of potatoes.
Fortunately, the harvest was not bad. They dug out nearly 5,000 kilograms of potatoes, a total of 10,000 kilograms.
Zhu Rong didn't say anything and planted all the potatoes.
According to the calculation of 300 catties of seedlings per mu of land.
He directly expanded the potato planting area to 33 mu.
Zhu Rong knew that as long as he could hold on for another half a month, he would be able to solve the food problem in a short time.
According to the value of the potatoes.
The next harvest would be 330,000 catties of potatoes.
As long as he planted these 330,000 catties of potatoes.
The potato planting area had reached 1,100 mu.
That meant that the production would reach 11 million catties.
Even if it was based on the consumption of one person per day and two catties of food.
These 11 million catties of potatoes were enough for 5.5 million people to consume for a day.
At that time, Vermilion Bird would harvest half and plant half.
In just over a month, he would be able to plant all 40,000 mu of land in his fief with this high-value potato.
This way, for a long time, the food crisis wouldn't bother Zhu Rong.
