Clang!
It was the sound of chopsticks falling into the hotpot!
Qin Shi Huang was completely dumbfounded!
He looked at the pile of potatoes that had been sliced into pieces, then raised his head to look at Liu Di.
"Immortal, Immortal Master, what did you say just now?？”
Although he had heard the words clearly, Qin Shihuang could not believe his ears!
"I just said that this is a potato. You should have never eaten it before!”
Liu Di laughed secretly in his heart, but pretended not to understand on the surface and said.
"No, I'm asking about the yield per mu.”Qin Shihuang continued to stare at Liu Di and asked!
"The yield per mu should be above fifty dan!”Liu Di added!
In modern times, the yield of potatoes per mu was about three to five thousand catties.
During the Qin Dynasty, a stone weighed about 60 Jin!
"Fifty stones? Above? Celestial Master, do you know how much grain our Great Qin produces per mu?”Qin Shihuang looked completely dumbfounded as he asked Liu Di!
"How much?"
Compared to potatoes, it was naturally far inferior. However, how much grain was produced per mu in ancient times? Liu Di really didn't know.
"If we can produce five or six dan per mu, it will be a bumper year!”Qin Shi Huang said in shock!
Normally, a yield of five or six stones per mu was considered a bumper harvest.
And this potato? But it could produce at least fifty to sixty dan per mu!
Didn't this mean? It was at least ten times the harvest!？
A simple analogy was that a monthly income of 3,000 yuan and a monthly income of 30,000 yuan…
The difference between them was self-evident!？
" Only five or six stones!?"
Although Liu Di had long known that the value of grain in ancient times would not be very high, he was still shocked when he heard this number!
In other words? In this era, a yield of 300 catties per mu was considered a bumper harvest?
One had to know that in the future, hybrid rice could usually produce more than 500 kilograms per mu!
In other words, Old Master Yuan's research on hybrid rice had increased the output value of grain by three to five times?
"Immortal Master, is it difficult to plant potatoes?”
Comparing the production value of hybrid rice in ancient times and modern times, Liu Di sighed in his heart. At this moment, Qin Shihuang could not help but ask!
Old Master Yuan's hybrid rice had only increased its production value by three to five times, and it already made Liu Di secretly sigh in his heart.
The potatoes that had been turned over ten times naturally shocked Qin Shihuang even more.
Now that he knew about this immortal food, he naturally had to ask clearly!
"It's not difficult to plant these potatoes. It's very easy. You just need to cut them into pieces and you can plant them! It could be used as a staple food, stir-fried vegetables, or snacks!”
"However, this is only fifty to sixty dan per mu!”
"I have another plant here. It's called sweet potato. Its production value will be higher than potatoes. If it's cultivated properly, it's not impossible to produce 100 stones per mu!”
"Moreover, this sweet potato is even more filling and can be used as a staple food!”
"Oh right, there's also rice. I still have rice here. If it's used as a seed, the rice can usually produce 20 dan of production value!”
"In addition, there's also corn!”
……
On the surface, Liu Di still looked like he was the only one who had the most basic skills. Other than potatoes, he also told Qin Shihuang about a few other high-value crops!
He heard that the yield of sweet potatoes per mu could even reach 100 dan! Qin Shi Huang was completely dumbfounded!
Also, there were 20 dan of rice!？
Qin Shihuang didn't know anything about potatoes, sweet potatoes, corn, or anything else.
However, the rice knew it!
How could there be 20 dan of rice?
Just thinking about it, if he just planted rice, he would be able to harvest 20 dan of rice per mu.
With that, Great Qin's people would no longer be hungry, right?
"Immortal master, you, you have all these seeds!？”
Qin Shihuang was a little clumsy when he spoke. He stuttered as he asked Liu Di!
"Both!" Liu Di nodded and gave an affirmative answer!
"Then, can you give me some? I, on behalf of all the people in the world, thank you for your great kindness!”Qin Shihuang asked!
"Since I've told this to His Majesty, I won't be stingy. When I return to Xianyang, I can arrange the planting!”Liu Di said with a calm expression.
"Arrange it after returning to Xianyang? Then, then we'll go back now, hurry back!”
Hearing Liu Di's words, Qin Shihuang could not wait any longer. He wished he could march back to Xianyang City that very night!
Liu Di didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Qin Shihuang's anxious appearance!
However, he also sighed inwardly. From Qin Shihuang's actions, it could be seen that he was a person who cared about the people of Huaxia!
"Your Majesty, don't be anxious. Let's eat this hotpot first!”
"I've talked to His Majesty before, and Great Qin's future development is to increase the happiness of its citizens. Only then will they have more children!”
"Since we want to have more children, food is naturally the foundation of everything!”
"Great Qin has a population of 20 million!”
"Let's set a small goal first? He wanted Great Qin's population to reach 100 million as soon as possible.”
(It seems like everyone isn't voting anymore? Looking at the data, there was no reaction. The motivation to write was not enough…)
