Chapter 295: Going Home
The carriage was moving slowly, Chen Fei lifted the curtain of the carriage, and the villagers who were looking at the work in the fields suddenly thought of a stalk: the first rich drive the later rich!
If you can take the villagers to run to a well-off together, I am afraid it will also be a good deed.
"I had the opportunity to talk to the folks in the village and see what we could do to get rich together." Chen Fei silently noted this in his heart. Soon, the carriage arrived at his doorstep.
Daddy didn't seem to be at home, there was no movement in the house when Chen Fei got out of the carriage, if nothing else, Daddy should have gone to the ground.
"The house is really too broken, and this time we must renovate the house." Chen Fei looked at his small dilapidated house and sighed, and when he walked into the yard, he found a corner of the yard.... It's all sweet potatoes!
"it!" The moment Chen Fei saw the sweet potato, he was excited and wanted to explode! Sweet potato! What a great species, but it has fed hundreds of millions of Chinese people in later generations!
"That's not right! Why is there only such a small sweet potato? Chen Fei roughly estimated and found that there were only a few hundred sweet potatoes piled up in the corner.
"Even if a sweet potato seedling grows a sweet potato, there should be a thousand, right? There are only two or three hundred of them at most! Could it be that there is something wrong with the sweet potato? Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on his back, and he didn't care much, so he pulled Yin Ping and ran to his field.
"Mahler, chicken, don't go wrong! Sweet potatoes are now more expensive than gold! Chen Fei ran towards the field with a smoke, and Yin Ping was taken aback by the speed.
"Holy!" The calm Yin Ping was finally not calm today, and burst into a standard foul language. "This fucking runs faster than me!"
Yin Ping was not the only one who was surprised. And the villagers who are working in the fields.
When Chen Fei ran past a villager, the villager strangely put down the tools in his hand and wondered, "Strange, what did you run over just now?" you, do you see that? ”
"What?" The woman looked up, only to see a black shadow roll up the dust and quickly leave, patting her chest and surprised: "Mom, that can't be a rabbit, right?" ”
"Smack!" The daughter received a slap on the head, and the man scolded: "What are you talking about? How can there be such a big rabbit, they are all fine! ”
The woman bowed her head and muttered, "What else could it be." Then he began to work for himself.
This was just a small episode in the village, when Chen Fei ran to his field out of breath, he didn't care where his father was, and went straight to the sweet potato field.
The sweet potato field was near his manor, and he was startled when he saw the field, because the small half of the sweet potato field seemed to have been gnawed by a dog, a big pit in the east and a big pit in the west, and the sweet potato vines were thrown on the ground in a mess, and the other half of the land was nothing to do, and it seemed that it had not been moved.
"Whew, fortunately, I only dug a small half of the sweet potato." Chen Fei calmed down and looked at the sweet potato field carefully, and found that the touched sweet potato field only accounted for less than one-tenth of the place, and his heart immediately calmed down.
Daddy didn't know what to do, and he didn't see a trace.
Chen Fei dug up a small piece of land with his hands and took out the sweet potatoes under the land.
Perhaps the sand content of this land is more suitable for the growth of sweet potatoes, and there are four sweet potatoes under one seedling, two of which are as big as Chen Fei's fist, and the other two are slightly smaller, which can be said to be growing very well, which is beyond Chen Fei's expectations.
The sweet potatoes produced by this seedling are almost four or five catties, so if you calculate, this thousand sweet potato seedlings are about... Four or five thousand catties of output!
This is more than 20 times more than 20 times in the Tang Dynasty, where the average yield per mu was only two or three hundred catties! It's a complete miracle!
Chen Fei can even imagine how much impact it would have on the development of the Tang Dynasty if the whole people planted sweet potatoes!
The people do not have to worry about food and clothing, there is enough food allocation in the famine years, and the society is stable!
Eating this piece is solved, and people's attention will naturally not just stay on agriculture, but will develop to a higher and farther place, maybe... The Tang Dynasty will buy industrial society in advance!
It's entirely possible! If it is true, then how many years will the Tang Dynasty be ahead of other countries?
Chen Fei felt that his heart was a little blocked, and he didn't dare to think deeply, for fear of having a heart attack!
Now, all he has to do is... Dig sweet potatoes!
At present, it is a good time for sweet potatoes to ripen after the frost falls, so these tasks must be grasped.
"Anyway, where did Daddy go, why is he missing when you need him this time?" As soon as Chen Fei finished muttering, he saw his father in the distance carrying a hoe, and ran towards Chen Fei excitedly with Yin Ping.
"Ah Fei! Oops, you're back, and you're worried about your dad to death. Chen Daomai ran forward, pulled Chen Fei's clothes and looked up and down, making sure that Chen Fei was not missing arms or legs, and finally smiled.
"It's good to come back, hahaha it's good to come back! You don't know, the second child of the Hu family is back, but I almost didn't die of scare when I didn't see you come back, and I thought you had an accident. ”
Seeing his father's frightened appearance, Chen Fei felt a trace of guilt in his heart. "Dad, it's me who is not good, I didn't report my safety to you as soon as possible."
Chen Daomai waved his hand absently, then compared Chen Fei's height, and said with a smile: "It's stronger than before, and it seems to have grown taller." Not bad. ”
"The official position is also higher than before."
"Huh?" Chen Daomai didn't seem to hear what Chen Fei said clearly, and was stunned for a moment.
Chen Fei had no choice but to lean into his father's ear and said loudly: "Dad, I've been promoted!" Now it is from the fifth rank official, and there is also a knighthood, the county uncle! Your Majesty also rewarded me with 1,000 acres of land and 700 households! Father! We are also a small powerful family! ”
"What?" Dad seemed to be stunned this time, the amount of information was too much, and his brain couldn't turn around.
"You... Do you have a knighthood now? What Bo? Still... How many acres of land were also rewarded? ”
Chen Fei said loudly in his father's ear again, patiently, word by word, this time his father finally understood, and after he understood, he pinched his fingers and pretended to be something, and in the end, his mouth became bigger and bigger.
"I'm out of breath! They all have titles! This is a great event for the glory of the ancestors! No, son, you have to go with me to your mother's grave tomorrow morning to pay respects and tell her the good news! ”
Speaking of Chen Fei's mother, a beautiful and graceful woman unconsciously appeared in his mind, and the memory of his mother hugging him and coaxing him when he was a child also followed.
His eyes were sore, and when he touched his hands, he found himself crying.
"Okay, Dad, let's go and worship my mother tomorrow. By the way, Dad, we are also people with status now, I have made a lot of money in partnership with Uncle Cheng during this time, and we should also repair our house well, let's buy a larger piece of land, and then renovate it. ”
Chen Daomai almost didn't want to save it, slapped his thigh hard, and said happily: "Okay!" Make! My son is also a big official now, he can't live in such a broken house, and it makes people laugh when he says it! ”
"So good! In two days, I'll ask the craftsmen to come. By the way, Dad, there is one more thing to tell you, where is our family's genealogy? Chen Fei asked with a sincere face.
