Chen Sheng, who has a wealth of experience in surviving in the wild, soon found a trail that was almost completely covered by shrubs. The trail has been abandoned for a long time, and it has been replaced by a few people, and I really don't know that this place was once a place that was often trampled on. Not long after following the trail, Chen Sheng came to the side of a valley.

The valley was washed out by the island's flash floods, but it's still some distance from the beach. There was a small patch of soil that looked fairly fertile due to the siltation of the mud washed down by the current, which seemed to have been reclaimed, without trees, and charred at the edges. Apparently set on fire. The cultivation technology of the people in central Fujian is backward, and there are no iron tools and farming tools in many places, and many places can only cultivate with the most primitive slash-and-burn cultivation, and the planting methods are very backward.

Therefore, when Chen Sheng implemented the reform policy in Fujian, the reason why those primitive and backward Yue people were willing to cooperate was largely because they could obtain an iron tool and seeds by obeying the government adapters, and more agricultural officials went down to the countryside to guide how to plant crops in order to obtain high yields. With such a generous remuneration, the household registration was compiled relatively smoothly and the grassroots bureaucratic organization of Minzhong County was organized. However, the implementation of this kind of organization is obviously not stable, otherwise there would not have been such a large-scale brawl outside Dongye City......

"It's strange, who still lives on the island?" Chen Sheng nagged in his heart. Approached the area that looked lush and green. Chen Sheng, who has a wealth of knowledge of botany, suddenly felt familiar when he saw the puffy green leaves growing on the land.

Chen Sheng has lived in this world for a long time, and has also been farming for a while, and his familiarity with crops is even more extraordinary. But there were no similar branches and leaves among the crops he saw.

These plants grow relatively tall, almost all of them are more than half a meter tall, and the leaves grow in feathery shapes on both sides of the leaf axis, and the branches are still a little hairy. Chen Sheng flashed like a flash of lightning in his mind, and he was stupid on the spot with a bang.

"This is ......," Chen Sheng's voice trembled slightly. In his memory and common sense, the names of these plants were clear to him. But in the same common sense and understanding, this kind of crop will not appear in this land in this era!

"I'll rely on ......" After Chen Sheng was stunned for a while, he threw the herbs and berries on his body to the ground like crazy, threw himself towards the plant, and then grabbed the branch of a plant and pulled it out hard!

......Due to the excessive force, Chen Sheng fell heavily and sat on the ground, the wound on his shoulder was pulled, and it suddenly burst open, and blood overflowed. But Chen Sheng didn't care about the pain of the wound at this time, at this time he only stared blankly at the rhizome of the plant he was holding in his hand, and the corners of his mouth trembled: "Damn, it's really ...... How the fuck is it possible, is it the same as me, also crossed over? ”

Chen Sheng was holding a potato plant in his hand. Also called potatoes. Chen Sheng knew very well that in this era, only in the vast land that was thousands of miles away from the Great Qin Empire could there be such crops. So holding this potato, an unrealistic but only explainable reason popped up in his mind.

But no matter where these potatoes come from, Chen Sheng understands how much of a difference this crop can bring to the world. The yield of one acre of potatoes is at least dozens of times that of rice! In other words, if potato cultivation is promoted, then the grain harvest of the entire Great Qin Empire will increase exponentially, and the population can also increase rapidly!

"Oh my God! You're so good to me......" Chen Sheng whimpered in his mouth, his consciousness was already a little abnormal. Minzhong County has little land and poor people, many mountains and little land, and there are not many fertile fields suitable for planting rice. In addition, the technical level of rice planting of the Vietnamese people is underground, and one mu of rice cannot harvest a few buckets of grain. Under the constraints of food scarcity, the population of the Yue people was scarce, and Minzhong County became the chicken rib of the empire, so the emperor would give Minzhong County to Chen Sheng as the county guard with such a big stroke. Although this is the grace of heaven, it is actually because this Minzhong County is nothing in the eyes of the emperor, and it is not a big deal if it is gone.

Joining the promotion and planting of potatoes in the central areas of Fujian, regardless of the yield, at least it also increased the grain output in Fujian, grain is a necessary factor for population growth, and in the conceivable future, Minzhong County and even all parts of the Central Plains may not be the way it is according to the historical trend.

Because he was too excited, Chen Sheng hugged the string of round pieces in his arms, which weighed about five or six pounds, crying and laughing. If it is seen, it will inevitably come to the conclusion that the county keeper has lost his mind and gone crazy.

After Chen Sheng returned to normal, the sky was also a little dark. After carefully observing his surroundings and leaving markers, Chen Sheng returned along the same path. Chen Sheng, who was overjoyed, didn't walk very neatly, stumbled all the way, and finally didn't get down the mountain when it was dark. I had to light a torch and run back towards Ah Xiu's position. There are only two people on the island, he and Ah Xiu, and at this time, only Ah Xiu can share this great joy in his heart with him.

"Ah Xiu...... Ah Xiu ...... "Seeing the bonfire flickering on the beach from a distance, Chen Sheng opened his mouth and shouted: "Haha, do you know what I brought back...... Hehe...... Ahem......" Chen Sheng laughed and choked his trachea, and immediately coughed.

Ah Xiu carefully identified Chen Sheng's back, and did not find that there was a fierce beast chasing behind Chen Sheng, and listening to Chen Sheng's voice, it was not like panic but a little ecstatic. At the same time, he was a little puzzled, how could Chen Sheng be so happy, could he still pick up any treasures on this island?

Ah Xiu jumped down from under the reef, walked over to Chen Sheng, and asked, "What's wrong?" Taking advantage of the faint firelight, Ah Xiu saw Chen Sheng holding a torch in his left hand, but his injured right hand was clutching his chest, and there was a drum in his chest, and he didn't know what was put inside. However, judging from Chen Sheng's expression, it should be a good thing.

"Hehe......" Chen Sheng saw Ah Xiu jumping from under the reef, and forgot to ask her why he did this, so he just smirked and said, "Ah Xiu, look, what is this?" He shook his chest, and six or seven potatoes that had not even been peeled off the dirt fell onto the beach, rolled down the sand twice, and then stopped.
