"Let's go, let's see."

Fu Bo led Zhao Yin to the cellar.

"Young Master"

"Young Master"

The tenant farmers greeted each other, and Zhao Yin nodded, "Hmm"

Looking into the cellar, the hole in the cellar can only accommodate one person, but the space underneath is very large, and the shape is somewhat like a cloth bag.

Several tenant farmers were still digging the soil on the walls, expanding the area under the cellar, and then loading the chiseled soil into a bamboo basket tied with ropes, and the two tenant farmers on top pulled the ropes to pull the soil out.

"This is not good, the area inside has to be expanded, in addition, the cellar mouth should be embedded in the soil layer by layer with wood, otherwise it is easy to collapse, and then find something to cover the hole, must not float into the rain and snow, the cellar should be made of thin wooden boards to make a partition, so that the things are more loaded, and it is easy to take."

Fauber nodded, but didn't understand why.

"Also, each of you has to dig a cellar like this in your house."

"Why?" Fauber was a little puzzled.

"Put the potatoes, and after each of you has this cellar in the future, even in the cold winter, you can eat delicious potatoes." Zhao Yin explained briefly.

"Is it really that amazing?"

"Of course"

Hearing this, everyone is more motivated, in order to stop being hungry in the winter in the future, come on.

"By the way, Fauber, you follow the drawings and find a good blacksmith to type them." Zhao Yin took out a piece of paper from his arms, along with thirty pieces of money, and stuffed them into Fu Bo's hand.

"Young master, the money you gave last time hasn't been used up yet."

Zhao Yin has just come to this era for a few months, and some people he doesn't know where to do some things, where to find them, so he simply handed them over to Fu Bo to Zhang Luo, others are old and stable, but his family background is not very good, and he is given some errand work, which is easier and can also increase his family's income.

"Take it, Fubo, wait for our batch of potatoes to be harvested again, and give each of you another hundred catties."

Fu Bo burst into tears, and his heart was endlessly grateful, "Young Master, you are really a good person. ”

"Go ahead."

Fauber lowered his head and touched a handful of tears, just in time to see what the drawings were drawing.

"Young Master, what is on your drawing...... Plough? ”

He wasn't sure if it was a plow or not.

I have planted the land all my life, but the things on the paper are very similar to the plow, but not very similar.

"Yes, it's a plow."

"But we have a plow."

"Your one is not easy to use, this is my improved one, which can greatly shorten our work efficiency, so throw away the previous ones." Zhao Yin waved his hand and turned his head back.

Now the Tang Dynasty still uses the straight plough of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and it is not very perfect, he painted the curved plough after the later perfection, the speed of ploughing far exceeds the straight plow, and the potatoes of this season are about to be harvested, how can it be done without a plough.

The last time he saw them use that clumsy straight plow, he had been thinking about making this drawing, but he didn't have time.

......

"Ladies and gentlemen, you have also tasted the taste of this potato, what do you think?"

In the Qinzheng Palace, Li Er took the handkerchief handed over by Wang De, wiped the corners of his mouth, and asked proudly.

"Well, it's soft and delicious."

"Lao Chen has never eaten so delicious."

"I don't know how Your Majesty found such a delicacy."

The ministers in the palace, except for Wei Chigong, the eldest grandson Wuji and Du Junxuan, all nodded their heads again and again, and they couldn't stop praising them.

Hou Junji asked unsatisfactorily, "Your Majesty, where did you get this thing?" ”

"Eh......" Li Er thought for a moment, "It's an envoy from overseas, and it's sent back from overseas." ”

"Then I wonder where this overseas envoy is here?" Hou Junji asked.

"What are you going to do?"

"Uh...... Lao Chen just wanted to find that messenger and ask about the planting method to benefit the people of my Tang Dynasty. ”

The eldest grandson next to him, Wuji, gave him a blank look.

What benefits the people, I think it is to kill people and sell goods.

Others may not know what Hou Junji used to do, but will he not know?

"It should be good if you use him to deal with Zhao Yin." The eldest grandson Wuji's eyes rolled, and he had a plan.

"Don't bother with Aiqing, I already have a planting method, but I don't know how to preserve it."

Li Er waved his hand, and Wang De willingly took down one of the dragon cases and circulated it to the ministers.

"How can this planting method be written so simply, will there be fraud in it?"

"This potato likes sandy soil? Can plants be grown in this sandy land? ”

"It's really simple, it's just that the word ......"

After the ministers circulated it, they all praised the magic of this potato, which was delicious and easy to grow.

It's just that it's written and simply can't read it.

"You just have to see how it works."

This planting method was written by Zhao Yin himself that day, and Li Er was only happy, and he didn't notice this word at all.

Looking at it now, it's really a little eye-catching, and it is estimated that the three-year-old dolls are more decent than what he wrote.

The next time you see him, you must laugh at him.

"I wonder how this potato yields?" Tobe asked.

Planted in sandy soil, if it can reach a yield of 200 catties per mu, then the problem of people's livelihood will be solved.

"The output value per mu is more than 4,000 catties." Li Er smiled and said with some pride.

But this potato is indeed a treasure, and Zhao Yin's kid can be regarded as a meritorious service.

"What? Four thousand pounds? ”

"Four thousand pounds!"

The entire court was filled with admiration.

If someone else had said it, everyone would have laughed at him for being crazy.

But Li Er's personality is obvious to everyone, and he will never joke about the livelihood of the people.

"Your Majesty, I would like to ask you to vigorously promote the technology of potato cultivation so that every household can grow it widely." Hubu Shangshu Dai Xuan said excitedly.

He was in charge of the household department, and he was well aware of the people's suffering.

Every year, people go hungry because of lack of food, and now with potatoes with such a high production value, this problem has finally been solved, and he is happier than anyone else.

"Yes, this potato must be promoted, but what we want to discuss today is how to preserve it." Li Er's brows furrowed.

Although this potato has a high production value, is soft and glutinous, and can be filling, it has more water, but it is not as easy to store as rice noodles.

"Hmm"

Hearing Li Er say this, all the ministers nodded, and they all began to think about this problem.

One minister suggested, "Otherwise, dry the potatoes, like rice noodles?" ”

"But this potato is relatively large, so if you want to dry it, how easy is it?" Dai Zhou shook his head.

"Why don't you cut it into slices and then dry it?"

"There's no better way to do it, so we have to give it a try." Dai Xuan asked Li Er for another potato and walked towards the imperial dining room.
