Chapter 98, the golden crow potato that absorbs heat
Well, in fact, in Fang Xiaoyue's world, in the scientifically managed large-scale planting, it is common for potatoes to yield as much as four or five thousand catties per mu.
In some large potato counties, the use of detoxified potatoes, special fertilizer for potatoes and field adaptation, the yield per mu is 6,000 or even 10,000 catties, which is excessive.
Of course, in a place like Taoyuan Valley, it is easy to achieve a yield of 1,000 catties per mu, and the fields are already very fertile, maybe more is possible.
Since it can still be planted for one season, Fang Xiaoyue did not waste time, and the next day he asked people to move the potatoes out of the stone room, cut them into pieces according to the number of buds, and then put them in the sun to be exposed to the sun for heating.
Potatoes have a dormant period of time during harvesting.
It can be as long as four or five months, as short as a month, and some can sprout just after harvesting.
During dormancy, the potatoes do not sprout, which also gives the potatoes time to reserve.
However, no matter how long the dormancy period is, the dormancy period will be lifted quickly when the temperature is high.
This is also the key to why Fang Xiaoyue bought potatoes in the past, put them in the kitchen, and it didn't take long to sprout.
After a few days of high temperature treatment, some of the seeds began to germinate.
The clumps were soon planted in the newly cultivated fields by the villagers, who were forced to wait for the impatience.
According to the regular sowing amount, more than 240 catties of potatoes are needed per mu.
But in order to grow more potatoes next year, these pieces are evenly sown in the Taoyuan Trail.
With the efforts of hundreds of people, Taoyuanjing has reclaimed 200 acres of new fields in just a few days, and then successively reclaimed 300 acres of new fields.
That's their limit.
The total area of Taoyuan Trail is 1.5 square kilometers, but excluding swamps, streams and some wild plants that need to be preserved, there are only 0.7 square kilometers left that can be cultivated, about 1,000 acres.
For the remaining 500 acres, Fang Xiaoyue felt that there was no need to reclaim them, and when the potato vines grew, the vines were cut into sections and planted directly.
Anyway, the vitality of this potato is tenacious, and it can grow happily on uncultivated land, at most, the yield is lower.
Of course, even if the vines are cut into sections, it will take some time to plant all the 500 acres that have been cultivated.
The remaining 500 acres will probably only be next year.
After the potatoes are planted, there are those hard-working villagers to manage them, and Fang Xiaoyue only needs to tell them some management methods for fertilization and watering.
What really needed his energy was the rice and wheat that were about to be harvested in the Taoyuan Valley.
No matter how large the output of potatoes is, it is not as good as rice, and the flour is delicious.
If you want to quickly harvest and thresh rice and wheat and dry it in the sunny and rainy climate of the 100,000 mountains, then it will definitely not be possible to rely on the old methods of the villagers in the past.
To this end, Fang Xiaoyue personally made more than ten wooden threshers.
As for the harvester, he can do it, but it will be very troublesome, after all, this thing is no better than potatoes, and potatoes can be said to be crops that have not been seen in the mountains, and this harvester is too much to exceed the historical process of this face.
Besides, with the number of people in the valley, it is not appropriate to make a harvester to harvest, and other people stand by and watch the excitement.
For more than a week, Taoyuan Valley made concerted efforts to harvest all the rice and wheat into the warehouse.
With the new grain, there was a little more joy in the voices that sounded in the Taoyuan Valley.
When everyone began to prepare for the local harvest festival, Fang Xiaoyue returned to the wooden house leisurely, took out a small pot, filled it with water, put it on the fire and boiled it, and then took two golden black potatoes and washed them and threw them in, covered the pot and simmered.
While waiting for the time to boil the potatoes, Fang Xiaoyue sat down to meditate.
This is a must, if you want to quickly improve the level of the warrior monk, you can't just rely on fate points.
Besides, he only has 60 fate points left, and it's okay to bet on the luck of the dice, but it's impossible to do something else.
After meditating for about a moment, Fang Xiaoyue slowly opened her eyes and landed her gaze on the small pot.
But what surprised him was that the water in the small pot had already been boiled dry, and the small pot was burned red, but the golden black potatoes inside were still red, and there was no trace of charring.
This?
After thinking about it, he took out a potato with chopsticks and observed it.
This golden black potato still only exudes a faint heat, which is no different from before it was put in.
With a light touch of his hand, the information of the golden black potato immediately came to mind.
----------
Golden Crow Potato with a Little Heat: A potato that contains a hint of Golden Crow blood, and eating this potato has a very small chance of obtaining Golden Crow blood.
----------
Well? The name of the potato has changed.
After thinking for a while, Fang Xiaoyue simply put the two golden black potatoes into the fire, and then added some firewood.
Obviously, the potato was able to absorb heat, and he guessed that there might be some changes after the golden crow potato absorbed the heat.
Of course, whether there will really be changes will have to be seen in the follow-up.
After the firewood burned violently for half an hour, the fire gradually weakened, Fang Xiaoyue gouged out one of the potatoes, reached out a little on it, and got new information.
----------
Golden Crow Potato that Absorbs a Lot of Heat: A potato that contains a hint of Golden Crow blood, and eating this potato has a faint chance of gaining Golden Crow blood.
----------
Sure enough, it is consistent with my own conjecture!
After absorbing a lot of heat, not only the name of this golden black potato has changed, but even the introduction information has changed.
If the original Golden Crow Potato is eaten, it has a very small chance of obtaining the Golden Crow bloodline.
And the current Golden Crow Potato has a slight chance of obtaining the Golden Crow bloodline.
The probability of obtaining the Golden Crow bloodline has increased!
If it weren't for the fear of being too eye-catching, Fang Xiaoyue wanted these golden black potatoes to be sent to a small blast furnace for calcination.
After all, compared to firewood with a high temperature of only three or four hundred degrees, the temperature in a small blast furnace is at least a thousand!
Undoubtedly, it will be much more efficient.
Of course, the temperature is not enough, and the time will make up.
In order to save firewood, so as not to keep going out to find firewood, Fang Xiaoyue dug a pit, put all the golden black potatoes in, and lit a bonfire on it.
For the next three days, he never left except for his sons to carry firewood.
Even after nightfall the next day, when there was a sudden rainstorm, he quickly built a tent for the bonfire.
Of course, it is very worrying that his various behaviors fall in the eyes of his own son.
Is Daddy sick? Got a brain problem?
If it weren't for Fang Xiaoyue's more strange behavior, they might have called the doctor in the valley a long time ago.
Well, maybe the majesty that Daddy had built up in the past made them dare not act rashly.
