Chapter 173 – Ten Thousand Catties Per Mu
Chapter 173 Yield of ten thousand catties per mu
When it was getting dark, the yield of sweet potatoes finally came out.
Zhou Lizheng came to Nangong Anshan with a full face of excitement, and said, “Ah Shan, the yield per mu has come out, the sweet potatoes on the four mu of land have a total of 40,566 catties, and the yield per mu has actually reached tens of thousands of catties.” what.”
The middle-aged man was shocked suddenly, with an output of tens of thousands of catties per mu?
This number is too scary.
Nangong Anshan smiled with satisfaction, and planted sweet potatoes with an yield of 10,000 jin per mu at one time, which is not bad.
Although she watered it with water mixed with Holy Spirit water, it was not much. If there is more Holy Spirit water in the future, it is estimated that 20,000 catties per mu can be produced.
The people next to them were also shocked when they heard that the yield of sweet potatoes per mu was tens of thousands of catties.
If each household planted one mu of sweet potatoes, the yield per mu would be 10,000 catties, and there would be hundreds of days in a year, then each household would be able to eat more than 20 catties per day.
If the family has a large population, coupled with the output of other places, it is completely possible not to be hungry.
Everyone in Liuye Village has an acre of land. If they need more sweet potatoes, they can grow more.
The middle-aged man also thought of this, the yield of this sweet potato is really terrible, it has reached ten thousand catties per mu.
He just wanted to come and see Nangong Anshan’s land and workshop today on a whim. He didn’t expect that she would give him such a big surprise.
Dugu Huanxu noticed that there were a lot of people here when he was on the mountain, and thought something was wrong, so he came over and asked, only then did he know that Nangong Anshan had grown another ten thousand catties of food per mu.
He was about to go to find Nangong Anshan, when he saw a familiar figure, he hurried over and said in a low voice, “Father, why are you here? There are many people watching here, it is dangerous for you to come here.”
“It’s okay.” Li Wang said indifferently: “I just wanted to come over to see that girl after eating chili last time, but I didn’t expect that she would grow food beyond ordinary people’s imagination.”
“I see.”
Nangong Anshan saw Dugu Huanxu talking to the middle-aged man just now, walked over curiously, and asked, “Axu, do you know this uncle?”
Dugu Huanxu said uncomfortably: “Well, I know him. He is an elder in my family. You can call him Uncle Wang from now on.”
“Oh, so the surname is Wang, and he belongs to your family. No wonder I feel that he is somewhat similar to you.”
Dugu Huanxu was afraid that she would continue to ask, and they would reveal their identities at that time, so he had to change the subject: “Ashan, is that sweet potato really yielding ten thousand catties per mu?”
When he came over just now, he heard the villagers talking.
“Yes.” Nangong Anshan smiled and said, “To be honest, I didn’t expect that I could grow ten thousand catties of food per mu at one time. I thought it was only a few thousand catties.”
Dugu Huanxu asked again: “Then how do you eat sweet potatoes?”
In the future, if the common people plant sweet potatoes and rice together, and the yield of rice will increase to a thousand catties per mu, it is estimated that they will never be hungry again.
Nangong Anshan repeated what she said to the villagers just now, “Eating sweet potatoes is very easy. Even outside, as long as there is firewood, it can be cooked in the pile of firewood. It is very fragrant. Sell me sweet potatoes The person who bought the seeds said that he often put the sweet potatoes under the stove when cooking, and when the food is cooked, the sweet potatoes will be cooked.”
Li Wang said: “That is really convenient.”
If they are marching and fighting, it is too late to make dry food for them to take with them, and it is not suitable for everyone to bring a pot. As long as you give them sweet potatoes, they can light a fire and they will not be hungry anymore.
“yes.”
Dugu Huanxu said: “With sweet potatoes, if every household grows them, as long as the weather is good, everyone will have a lot of surplus food.”
Nangong Anshan said: “Yes, the person who sold it to me said that there used to be a place where everyone grew sweet potatoes, and the sweet potatoes that grew every year couldn’t be eaten up, and sometimes those people even gave them to pigs to eat.”
Of course, she lowered her voice in the last sentence, lest others think that this is for pigs.
Dugu Huanxu and Li Wang looked at each other in surprise, there was so much food for the pigs, so the life of the people there was so easy.
“That’s right.” Nangong Anshan said: “Just now I sent someone to take several of them back to the stove to hold them under the stove, and they will send them over soon. You can try the taste of sweet potatoes together.”
After finishing speaking, she saw her servants coming from a distance carrying something, and said, “It’s already here, everyone can try it.”
Soon, Yinghua came over with roasted sweet potatoes.
Nangong Anshan knew that the sweet potato was still very hot, so she went to the field to pick a few sweet potato leaves, wrapped a sweet potato and divided it into two, which were given to Dugu Huanxu and Li Wang respectively.
“Uncle, A Xu, try it, it should taste good, but it’s still very hot, so eat slowly.”
The two nodded, and then began to eat carefully.
Nangong Anshan divided another sweet potato into two and distributed it to Cao Zhenya and Zhou Lizheng.
She herself took one piece and divided it into two, and gave it to Wu Binger.
She tried to take a bite, and immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes, “It’s so sweet, it’s not bad, it’s delicious.”
Sure enough, the sweet potato seeds grown through the space are extraordinary, and it tastes even better than the sweet potatoes she had eaten in the previous life.
Li Wang ate and said, “It’s delicious, it’s really delicious.”
Dugu Huanxu said: “It’s really delicious, sweet, and not greasy.”
Zhou Lizheng said: “If there is no food to eat, this can be eaten to your fullness, life is not considered hard, everyone is sure to be happy.”
Wu Bing’er said: “I never expected that the fruit that looks so inconspicuous on the outside can be so delicious inside.”
Nangong Anshan said with a smile: “It’s good as long as it’s delicious. This sweet potato is very good for the body, especially for people who have difficulty in convenience. Eating this can greatly improve the feeling of fullness. It also has a strong sense of fullness and can prevent obesity. “
“Then this sweet potato is really a treasure.” After Li Wang finished eating, he glanced at his son.
Dugu Huanxu quickly swallowed the sweet potato in his mouth, and said, “Ashan, did you also buy this sweet potato seed from a passing merchant?”
“Yes.” Nangong Anshan said: “But when I let people plant the seeds last time, I let the seeds grow seedlings in advance, and then cut them.”
Dugu Huanxu asked again: “Then can you still get the seeds?”
“Yes, there are still a lot of seeds I bought last time, and it is estimated that I can plant hundreds of acres of land.”
Li Wang and Dugu Huanxu looked at each other in surprise.
Dugu Huanxu said: “Ashan, I have an unfeeling request, I wonder if you can agree?”
Nangong Anshan smiled and said: “I know what you want to say, you want me to sell you the seeds, and then you send people to plant them, so that you can promote sweet potatoes in Li Wang’s land.”
Or this person will directly hand it over to Prince Li, and use sweet potatoes as military rations.
