Chapter 112: A Bumper Harvest

The autumn of Rongcheng quietly arrived in the early morning, and the 100 acres of fields in Taoyuan Villa were full of intoxicating gold as far as the eye could see.

Under the rays of the sun, it shines more and more brightly, like gold all over the ground.

Everyone in Hilde Hills grinned and walked with the wind

Autumn has really arrived, and the sky is as blue as a wash, like a sapphire washed with clean water.

And the autumn sky is as blue as the sea. The white clouds are like a light boat sailing, floating slowly.

As soon as the wind blows, the leaves fall and flutter in the sky, like yellow butterflies. There are also maple trees, whose leaves are all red, shake them, and the leaves fall one after another, as if they have laid a red carpet on the earth, and decorate the earth with extraordinary beauty.

The pine trees in the back mountain are straight and straight, and the pine leaves of the trees are lovely green, like a big green velvet umbrella that is open, blowing in the wind, swaying gently.

It is really the most beautiful season of the four seasons, the happiest season!

The people in the cottage are busy, the threshing floor has long been tidied up, the area is large, and the ground is very flat and clean.

When the grain comes down, it can be transported to the threshing floor for drying and threshing.

At this time, although the scorching sun was on the head, Gu Jinyu and her daughter, as well as others, were enthusiastic and calculating in the cornfield, when the corn was not ripe before, Gu Xinyu broke some for everyone to cook and eat, the kind of corn fragrance that had never been smelled in his life attracted these people very much, and they were all praised when they were to be eaten.

Gu Xinyu secretly sent a few to Zhou Muhan. The others are reluctant to move, and they have to keep them as seeds, and if they eat one, they will plant half an acre less.

This year's corn grows exceptionally well, with full grains and golden color!

Du Saburo took the hired man's fast and enthusiastic pleated corn cob and put it in the back basket behind him.

When it was transported to the threshing floor, under the rush of everyone, it had been taken off and weighed on the scale. The crowd was shocked. Especially Fu Shu, he looked at the catty number repeatedly, for fear of adding a mistake.

I closed it again, yes. It's still one thousand pounds!

Gu Xinyu secretly spoke. This catty is also highly productive in modern times. It seems that the effect of this spiritual dew still plays a great role, as well as this careful cultivation method.

Otherwise, the yield per mu will be only a few hundred catties, but these seeds are only afraid of next year. Still just as productive!

This should be called an improved quality seed!

Gu Xinyu took a hundred catties of corn, went to the mill to grind cornmeal, and after sending it, made it into hair cakes, wowotou, corn flour cakes, vegetable dumplings and so on

And a few people in the field were extremely excited and excited, with a yield of 1,100 catties per mu!

What is this concept?

It's a concept that turns things upside down.

It means that if it is popularized, if it is calculated according to the average value of the existing three acres of land per person in the Zhou Dynasty, it is 3,300 catties per person per year, according to the standard of farmland tax levied by the Zhou Dynasty, minus 900 catties, the net remaining is 2,400 catties, and the average daily ration is about one catty.

Gu Jinyu was shocked! Fu Shu was shocked!

Hou Ye pushed the wheelchair and said excitedly: "The sergeants of my battalion are not worried about being hungry!" ”

Du Saburo, the head of the small village, hugged a corn stalk and shouted, mother, golden doll!

In the evening, the sun is setting in the west, and everyone gathers in the flower hall of the waterfront residence, tasting the staple food made of these corns.

While tasting, he was full of praise, this is a delicacy that he has never eaten in his life, the golden skin, with the fragrance of fresh corn, and the most important thing is that Hou Ye first ate a big nest of wotou, a lower belly, and he actually felt full, and the other varieties were supported by him, and he didn't eat them all over, thanks to the panic, so he sighed secretly while eating, he was really hungry!

Fu Shu said to Gu Xinyu: "You said that these are all reserved as seeds? ”

"Yes, it's a pity that it's still a little less, and if you want to promote it nationwide, you have to wait one to two years."

Gu Xinyu said with some regret.

Gu Jinyu tasted a little bit of everything, and when he saw that Hou Ye was about to eat Wowotou, he put Wowotou at the end, and the first thing to taste was tortillas and vegetable balls, Hou Ye saw the secret scolding, and he was as cunning as before!

Gu Jinyu comforted her daughter: "Everything can't be done overnight, it may not be as easy to promote as imagined, many people stick to the old rules and don't think about improving at all, this matter has to come step by step." ”

Fu Shu nodded and agreed: "This is already a good start, and the rest is only a matter of time, but the people still have a high degree of acceptance of food that can eat a full stomach, and it will depend on how well it is promoted." ”

Gu Xinyu nodded, and was just about to speak, when a guard outside suddenly shouted: "The holy decree has arrived!" ”

Everyone was shocked and hurriedly came out, only to see a team of people and horses coming this way, it was Gonggong Li, who had been here last time.

Gu Jinyu hurriedly called Yuan Niang Zhang Luo, Yuan Niang had received the holy decree, so she was not flustered, and methodically commanded Uncle Wang and them to set up incense and sweep the courtyard

Soon everything was done, Gonggong Li read out the holy decree, everyone knelt down to listen to the decree, and Fu Shu and Changle also knelt aside.

It was really the first time Gu Xinyu had encountered such a thing, and he knelt down a little reluctantly, saying that this rule was really annoying.

As Fu Shu said, Emperor Jianyuan directly appointed Gu Jinyu as the Si Nong Shilang of the three northern cities and sixteen counties, and the official residence was half a level higher than before!

Gu Jinyu thanked God, and she was also very excited in her heart, and she was a little excited, she was really in doubt, and there was no way out, and the willows and flowers were bright and another village!

It's all the result of my daughter's hard work!

Gu Jinyu thought proudly.

I am her father, I must do better, and I must not fall behind my daughter!

After Gonggong Li read the holy decree, he was led into the house to rest, and soon, several plates of delicate tortillas and vegetable balls were served, and Gonggong Li was invited to taste the corn newly added by the Zhou Dynasty

Gonggong Li had heard Emperor Jianyuan say before he came, and he was still a little skeptical, can this grain that has never been planted be planted well? What is the yield? What does it taste like?

All these doubts were completely dispelled in this evening.

First of all, after eating these corn tortillas and vegetable balls, I drank the cornmeal porridge boiled by Mama Wang, and after eating, Gonggong Li, who has always spoken without leakage, couldn't help but admire, it was so delicious, I had never eaten such delicious cakes in my life.

When I arrived at the threshing floor where the corn was temporarily placed, I saw the real corn kernels, which were full and golden, piled up in the center of the threshing floor like a mountain of gold, and were plated with a layer of gold under the background of the setting sun.

Gonggong Li shouted, could this be a divine object given to Da Zhou by God?

Everyone was noncommittal, Fu Shu and Gu Jinyu looked at each other and smiled, understanding each other, well, this is a good promotion slogan, I believe that with this, this matter will become much easier!

When Gonggong Li was leaving, he took away the ground fifty catties of cornmeal, and Gu Xinyu asked Fu Shu to write down all the corn products in detail one by one and present them to his father (to be continued.) )
