Many people suspected that they might have heard wrongly.
Or maybe he was hallucinating.
Why did the immortal god give Zhu Yuanzhang three rewards?？
The immortals and gods in the sky.
It was still a majestic figure in the midst of the boundless light.
he said softly.
It was still the same emotionless tone.
It contained the majesty of a decree.
Hongwu founded the country and was prosperous. The people were suffering and the heavens took pity on them. Therefore, in addition to the previous two kinds of heavenly grace, they specially sent down eight high-yield crops to help the people!
Another heavenly reward!
When everyone in the historical planes heard the immortal god's words, they were all dumbfounded. They did not expect the award ceremony to be so exciting.
Three rewards in a row.
Each one was more suffocating than the other.
Needless to say, all the people on the rankings had good weather. Everyone was already familiar with this, so there was nothing much to say. The main reason was that Zhu Yuanzhang had obtained the heaven-blessed bloodline previously.
Not to mention that it could allow their descendants to live a long life.
Come back without illness or disaster.
It was already something that many people yearned for.
Such a terrifying gift.
Everyone thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was already extremely lucky.
However, he never thought that…
After the Blessing Bloodline.
Zhu Yuanzhang actually received a third reward…it was a high-yield crop. This was no longer something that the ruler wanted, but something that the common people yearned for.
At this moment.
He looked at the immortals and gods in the sky, as well as Zhu Yuanzhang, who was receiving gifts in the flowing light.
The people of the myriad worlds.
Naturally, he felt a strong sense of envy.
Isn't that so! The Blessing of the Heavens Bloodline was so tempting, and the eight types of food crops were even more so. In fact, food was even more tempting than the Blessing of the Heavens Bloodline!
Everyone understood the importance of food to an empire.
To put it bluntly.
It was the royal family.
For a dynasty or a race, food was not as important. If there was a famine, even the strongest dynasty could collapse in a short period of time!
High-yield food.
Especially with so many types of high-yield crops!
What it represented was self-evident!
That was the guarantee of an empire's survival!
It was the cornerstone of an empire's stability!
With so many high-yield countries, it would be difficult for them to perish!
As long as the imperial court was not too corrupt and could not be supported, this dynasty could survive no matter what. Anyone who had read history or had some knowledge understood this. One had to know that many dynasties had been replaced because the people were about to starve to death. Even Zhu Yuanzhang himself could not survive, so he rebelled.
As long as there was a way out, who would be willing to do something that would cost their lives?
Take history as a mirror to know the rise and fall of the country.
There was a saying.
The rise and fall of a dynasty had a lot to do with food.
In the early days of the dynasty, the population was small, the land was vast, and the food was abundant. There was no land annexation, sufficient taxes, and an abundant national treasury. The dynasty naturally flourished.
However, as the population grew, disasters continued, food was scarce, annexations deepened, taxes were insufficient, and the national treasury was short of money.
At the end, food was scarce and insufficient to feed people. Then, there was a rebellion.
The dynasty was destroyed.
This was something that many people understood, but no one would mention it because the lack of food could not be changed by human power.
This did not mean that the ancients did not understand the importance of food.
Food was the foundation of the people, and agriculture was the foundation of the country. In the ancient times, agriculture was considered the most important and basic industry in the entire society.
As long as the rulers of the past attached great importance to agriculture, this ranking could be seen from the perspective of scholars, farmers, workers, and merchants.
Although the peasants did not have much power, they were still ranked second. This showed its importance and its irreplaceable role in a dynasty.
However…
He knew how important it was.
It did not mean that he could develop it.
Only the people of the future knew.
In ancient times, wheat was the main crop in the north, while rice was mainly eaten in the south. These two crops adapted to different climates and produced different amounts of crops. Before the Ming Dynasty, most people in the north and south were based on these two countries. Unlike hybrid rice, the yield of any type of grain in ancient times was very low.
This would also cause the rulers to worry about food production.
Every time a natural or man-made disaster occurred.
The quantity of food became the imperial court's greatest concern.
Even if the weather was good, the food production was very low.
One should not be surprised. Since the production of these grains was low, why not plant some high-yield crops? This was the argument of why not eat meat paste.
We ate eight kinds of crops today, including corn, sweet potatoes, peanuts, potatoes, papayas, and tomatoes.
It did not exist before the late Ming Dynasty. After the Ming Dynasty, it gradually spread to the Central Plains and was accepted by the people of the Central Plains. These eight crops originated from America and were naturally impossible for Asians to obtain.
These eight crops were all top-grade, and he hoped that they would be treasured so that he could achieve a true golden age as soon as possible.
After the Immortal God finished speaking.
Everyone could clearly see that there were eight different kinds of meteors. The immortal god's seemingly omnipotent hands slashed out and exploded into countless stars that scattered across the entire Great Ming's territory.
According to the information displayed in the following subtitles, there were improved potatoes, improved high-yield corn, drought-resistant sweet potatoes, and a series of foods that could be used as staple food.
All of them had already spread to the land of the Ming Dynasty and Hongwu Dynasty. As long as they were discovered and excavated, they could be found in most places.
At this moment.
It could really be said that it was a national celebration for all the commoners during the Hongwu period.
This time.
The commoners of the Ming Dynasty and Hongwu Dynasty became unprecedentedly excited and ecstatic. Compared to the rewards they had received before, this reward undoubtedly had a huge impact on them.
They didn't know what kind of corn and potatoes the immortal god had sent down. These things hadn't been transmitted to Da Ming yet, but they could clearly see the words in the immortal god's flowing light.
Lines of extremely dazzling and brilliant words slowly appeared along with the pictures. It was not a style of writing, and people from every era saw it differently.
People in the Qin Dynasty saw small seal script and official script, while people in the Eastern Han Dynasty saw regular script and running script. In the eyes of people from different periods, these characters looked completely different.
Even the grass that had never read before could clearly understand the shining words. To put it bluntly, if monkeys and tigers had intelligence, they would also be able to understand these words.
This was the mark that was truly engraved into the heart of life.
It could be said that there was no one who did not know what these lines of words meant.
That was exactly the case.
During the Hongwu period, the people were all cheering and jumping for joy. The world was shaken and the entire country was in an ecstatic atmosphere. There was nothing they could do. The main reason was that the things revealed by the immortal and god subtitles were too amazing.
The crops with the lowest yield per mu were more than ten dan per mu. Anyone who had planted land or understood crops could answer this question.
Ordinary people.
They would call this auspicious!
Then, he would report it to the Imperial Court.
Everyone was happy for a while…and then there was nothing else. Under normal circumstances, this was an extremely rare exception. Those who discovered it would even be rewarded by the Imperial Court!
A stable yield of more than ten dan per mu was absolutely unheard of. It could only be described as a miracle. This was more than 1,000 catties!
It was no wonder that all the commoners were so happy.
The yield per mu was more than 1,000 catties.
What kind of concept was this?
During the Qin and Han Dynasties.
At that time, farming techniques in the north were developed, and the yield per mu was high. The south had not been developed yet, and the technology was backward. The rice had just entered the vision of the people, and the yield per mu was low.
And it was in such a dynasty.
As the main grain, the southern rice,"Huainanzi·Zhu Shu Xun" mentioned that "ten mu of land, the annual harvest is no more than forty stones.”It was equivalent to 4 stones of rice per mu.
It was equivalent to 2.4 stones of rice.
Another example of wheat in the north: The Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Zhong Changtong Zhuan, mentioned that "the rate of fertility is calculated according to the income of the crops, and the yield per mu is three stones."”That was to say, the yield of wheat per mu was 3 stone.
During the Qin and Han Dynasties, 1 stone was 14 kilograms, and 1 mu was 0.69 mu. Therefore, the grain yield per mu in the Qin and Han Dynasties was: Northern wheat, 120 jin per mu.
The southern rice was 96 jin per mu.
It was not even one-tenth of the food that the immortal god had given him!
Most importantly…
Whether it was wheat in the north or rice in the south, the cultivated land needed to be very excellent. The yield of ordinary land could not reach such a high level.
It was normal for the crops to fail when the weather changed. Otherwise, why would there be so many famines and so many major food disasters?
Then, he looked at the food crops bestowed by the immortals and gods.
The growing conditions were very easy.
Some could even grow between sand and rocks.
Moreover, one mu of land weighed more than 1,000 catties, which was the least.
This was a situation that no one dared to imagine in their dreams. Now, it had become a reality under the blessing of the gods. In the future, Da Ming would have eight kinds of crops that were extremely rich and did not require many conditions. Even a illiterate farmer could imagine how beautiful the future would be.
In this way.
Every household would have surplus grain.
Every household.
He wouldn't have to eat Guanyin clay anymore!
"Immortal God above! Immortal God above!"
"Long live His Majesty the Emperor! Immortal God Eternal Blessing!"
"Thank the heavens! Thank the heavens!"
"There's finally hope for survival!”
Countless commoners during the Hongwu period.
They prostrated themselves on the ground, their heads constantly knocking against the ground. Even if their heads were bleeding, they did not seem to notice it. Everyone was sincerely kowtowing.
They were grateful to Emperor Hongwu for bringing them the grace of the heavens.
He was even more grateful to the immortals and gods above the nine heavens.
He was even more merciful than Bodhisattva.
