Chapter 918: Big Harvest 2
While everyone was discussing, Ling Ba brought Ma Chunming, who was in charge of the farmland, over.
The corners of Ling Ba's mouth were smiling, similar to his usual appearance, and people couldn't see any extra thoughts, but Ma Chunming was full of red light and a happy face.
As soon as they entered the flower hall, Ma Chunming grinned and raised his voice.
"My lord, ma'am, I have good tidings for you! The wheat harvest is very good, and the cotton and peanuts planted are also a bumper harvest! ”
"How good is that? How many buckets of grain can be produced in an acre of land? Ye Qingyu hurriedly asked.
"Madam, according to my estimate, when the wheat is dried, at least six buckets of grain will be produced! This is really good news! My subordinates have never seen such a good harvest in the field! ”
Ma Chunming said excitedly, his throat trembling.
"When you say five buckets of grain, are you talking about before or after hulling?" Ye Qingyu asked again.
"Madam, what the villain said is naturally before the shell, and after the shell, there are more than five buckets."
Ma Chunming saw that Ye Qingyu was not excited at all, and felt that Ye Qingyu was a pampered lady, and he didn't know what these outputs meant, so he began to try his best to show her,
"Madam, you may not know that the harvest in the ordinary field is only four buckets of grain at most, but our harvest has doubled this time, which is really amazing!"
"It would be great to have six buckets of food!" Grandma Ye said happily, "The harvest is so good, and after paying taxes, I am not afraid of going hungry." ”
Grandpa Ye also echoed it, and the others were very happy.
This shows that they have invested a lot of money in the past to buy good seeds, buy cattle, buy farm tools, collect cow dung, and also recruit agricultural professionals to teach farmers how to farm.
Now, with a welcome return!
"It's nice to be able to double it." Ye Qingyu saw that her family was very happy, and she also smiled, but in fact, she was not satisfied in her heart.
One bucket of grain is fifty catties, and six buckets of grain is three hundred catties, which is still the highest yield per mu, and it is still the estimated weight of wheat before hulling.
If the shell is removed, it will be reduced by a little, not at all less than 300 catties.
According to her understanding, the lowest yield per mu of modern wheat is more than 400 catties, which still refers to clean wheat with the husk removed, and the highest yield per mu can reach more than 800 catties.
It's a pity that she really doesn't understand farming, and she doesn't know as much as Ma Chunming in front of her, so she can give some fragmentary guidance to let Ma Chunming understand by himself.
Fortunately, Ma Chunming is a smart person, and he likes to study and farm, Ye Qingyu thinks that he may be able to increase the yield of wheat per mu.
Therefore, Ye Qingyu was not only happy, but also gave Ma Chunming all kinds of encouragement and affirmation, and finally put forward expectations.
"You have done a very good job, and I believe that with your talents, you will be able to increase the yield of wheat per mu again next year, reaching eight buckets of grain!"
You can try it boldly, whether you want silver or labor, I will try my best to satisfy you, you can do whatever you want in the field, even if it is for experimentation, and it is okay if there is no harvest. ”
"Genus, my subordinates will definitely work hard!"
When Ma Chunming heard Ye Qingyu's words, he felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy all of a sudden, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
However, being able to be reused and appreciated, Ma Chunming was very encouraged, he only felt that his blood was boiling, and if he wanted to show his strength, he would fight for half his life, and he could not live up to Ye Qingyu's trust in him!
