"This is a sweet potato!"
"This is corn!"
"These are potatoes!"
"The yield per mu is about three to four thousand catties!”
In front of the 10,000 mu experimental field, Ying Ziye was introducing the crops to Moon Goddess and Si Ming.
When the three women heard the figure, they were all surprised.
One had to know that the best farmland only had a maximum of 200 catties of grain!
However, these crops that they had never seen before could actually produce ten times the yield of grain per mu?
"Yes! It's also very sweet!"
Great Si Ming dug out a sweet potato from the ground, broke it open, and tasted it. It was very strange.
"It doesn't taste good when it's raw. It's only delicious when it's cooked!”
"Let's go, the roast is almost done, and the guests should be arriving soon. This prince will bring you over to have a taste!”
Ying Ziye said as he walked towards the main road.
Just now, he ordered someone to dig some sweet potatoes and break some corn to roast. It should be almost done roasting.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
"May I know why Your Highness summoned me here?”
Just as they reached the bonfire, a carriage drove over. Ba Qing jumped down from the carriage and cupped his hands in greeting.
"Please try something!"
Ying Ziye sat cross-legged on the grass and ordered the guards," Give them the roasted sweet potatoes and corn. Let them taste one each!”
"Yes, sir! Your Highness!"
The guards dug out a few black things from the fire and gave one to each of them.
The corns that were roasted on the fire were also distributed to everyone.
The crown prince had told them about this barbecue method.
Ba Qing, Yueshen, Great Si Ming, and Young Si Ming looked at each other, not knowing how to eat this charred thing.
It wasn't until they saw Ying Ziye peel off the skin and taste it that they followed suit and started eating.
"Yes! It's so sweet!"
"It's so delicious!"
"It's so sweet. I wonder what it is?”
When the four women tasted it for the first time, their beautiful eyes widened. Ba Qing immediately realized that this was another big business opportunity to make money, so he quickly asked.
"This is a sweet potato, imported by this prince from overseas!”
"This kind of crop can reach 4,000 to 5,000 catties per mu, and it's easy to grow and drought-resistant. Even in barren mountainous areas, it can still be planted!”
Ying Ziye gave her a detailed introduction of the yield per mu and characteristics of sweet potatoes.
"Really?"
Ba Qing's beautiful eyes lit up as she looked at him in disbelief.
"That thousand mu is all there. If Furen doesn't believe me, you can bring people over to dig one mu and then weigh it!”
"This…How could Ba Qing not believe what His Highness the Crown Prince said?”
Ba Qing, who realized his rudeness, quickly apologized.
Then, she smiled charmingly and asked tentatively,"This thousand mu of land has a yield of fifty million catties. I have several hundred thousand mu of good land in my house. I wonder if Your Highness can sell some to me?”
"If you want it, this prince can give you some. I can even tell you the method to grow it!”
"However, this prince has a condition?”
Seeing her take the bait, Ying Ziye couldn't help but laugh.
He had called her over today because he wanted to use her to set up the big picture!
"What condition?"
"We have to find a way to sell these overseas seeds to those merchants and nobles at a high price!”
"Don't worry, Your Highness. As long as I spread the word, many nobles and wealthy merchants will swarm over!”
Ba Qing said with certainty.
"Oh right, other than sweet potatoes, there are also corn, potatoes, cotton…!”
Ying Ziye introduced every crop in the experimental field in detail, and Ba Qing was dumbfounded.
The sweet potatoes were already shocking enough. She didn't expect there to be so many good things.
The rarer something was, the more valuable it was. If these things were known by the nobles, they would definitely fight to buy them at a high price!
Great Qin lacked everything except nobles and rich people!
"These are the detailed planting methods of several crops…!”
"Other than the chilies in the fields that can't be touched, help this prince sell all the other crops!”
Finally, Ying Ziye handed over a few pieces of Xuan paper.
Right now, Great Qin was constantly at war, and they still had to build the Great Wall and dig canals. The national treasury was already unable to make ends meet!
He planned to borrow Ba Qing's hands to sell the crops in the fields to those wealthy merchants and nobles at a high price.
All of the gold they earned would be used to develop Great Qin.
This was also the reason why he did not tell his cheap father about the billions of good seeds in the system space.
He planned to take out the billions of improved seeds in the system space after he had made a huge profit.
Otherwise, once it was exposed in advance, there would be no way to scam those nobles!
"It's not difficult to sell all of them at a high price, but my dozens of acres of land…"
Ba Qing took the Xuan paper and asked for his benefits with a smile.
"No one is farming, right?"
"Do you want this prince to plow for you?"
"Oh right, if you need seeds, this prince has them here too. Hundreds of millions, billions, no problem!”
"Free! No charge!"
Ying Ziye's words had a double meaning as he joked with her.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Ba Qing did not understand the meaning behind it. Her face lit up and she actually thanked him.
Then, she seemed to have thought of something and said worriedly,"This divine item is priceless. Your Highness, the Crown Prince needs to guard it with heavy troops to prevent any accidents!”
"Don't worry, Great General Meng will send troops over very soon! From today onwards, the crops in this field will be handed over to you!”
"I will not disappoint the Crown Prince!”
"Right, there's one more thing this prince would like to ask you for help with.”
"Your Highness, please instruct me. I will do my best to help you within my ability!”
"You have a lot of business in Xianyang, so you must be well-informed! Help this prince find out who is secretly spreading anti-Qin rumors? Also, report to me regularly about the movements of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy in Xianyang!”
Other than using her to fill up the national treasury, Ying Ziye also wanted her to become his eyes and ears, and use her to build his own intelligence network!
Others might not know her ability, but Ying Ziye was very clear about it.
Almost all the large taverns, inns, and other shops in Xianyang City were under her name.
If she wanted to find out any information, she would be even faster than assassin organizations like the Network and Quicksand!
"This…"
Hearing what he said, Ba Qing, who was extremely smart, immediately understood his intentions.
She, who had never wanted to get involved in the conflict of forces, could not help but hesitate.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…"
However, right at this moment, figures flew over from all directions.
