Chapter 307: Divine Potato Shocking Heaven
Gao Shiman was impressed by this, in fact, for a large amount of storage, the well cellar is not good, and the house cellar is more suitable. She asked Yang Zhuangtou to prepare several large cellars, with windows and fire channels, each suitable for storing tens of thousands of kilograms of sweet potatoes, which is more suitable for the current situation.
A total of 20 acres of sweet potatoes were planted, if she expected it was not bad, an acre of land of about 5,000 catties, can get 100,000 catties, she looked at the newly built cellar, quite satisfied, so ordered to start digging sweet potatoes tomorrow. Dig ten acres first, see the yield and the weather, and then dig the rest. Prepare today, digging sweet potatoes is also a technical job, you have to plan, put and pack lightly, and careless people really can't do it. He also prepared a lot of straw and put it in the basket, but there were not many plants in the first place, and Gao Shiman did not want to let the sweet potatoes lose anything.
The weather was fine, Gao Shiman explained to everyone and confessed, and he had to go to the ground to demonstrate, and then disperse people into the ground, dig out the sweet potatoes in the morning and dig out the mud and put them in the ground to bask in the sun a little, and then don't dig in the afternoon, so that the sweet potatoes are all stored in the cellar after being half dried and half shaded.
Gao Shiman inspected in the field, encountered non-standard operation and guidance, how to dig in less than a quarter of an hour, dug out a nest of oversized sweet potatoes, a plant has six large sweet potatoes, the largest one is about three or four pounds, no one else has seen sweet potatoes, so I don't care, and Gao Shiman is different, she is happy, it seems that the land has not been polluted and damaged by chemical fertilizers, so it still maintains a very high fertility, so that her previous estimate of the yield will be raised by two grades.
Unexpectedly, this is not a thing to be happy about, before lunch, he dug out a large sweet potato, looking at it is almost like a big pumpkin, Gao Shiman ran to take a look, and almost knelt down! It's just that she had never seen such a big sweet potato in her previous life, and everyone was so excited to see her, and probably knew that there was a very big fruit, so everyone also ran over to see the surprise.
Gao Shiman personally hugged the divine potato, I was afraid that there were more than ten catties, and I asked someone to call it over, heh, there are more than fifteen catties! Gao Shiman was so happy that she asked her to carefully carry the sweet potato back to Zhuangzi, and she said that she would take it back to the capital.
In the evening, when the sun went down, all the sweet potatoes dug up were weighed into the cellar under the guidance of Gao Shiman. After two days, ten acres of sweet potatoes were put in place, and some of the broken skin was damaged when digging, so everyone was divided and eaten, both raw and cooked, and they could eat as much as they wanted. After the sweet potatoes are in the cellar, the starch breaks down into sugar, which will only be sweeter when the time comes.
In the evening, Gao Shiman personally counted the results, and the final results came out, which scared her into a daze! I thought that these ten acres of sweet potatoes were almost more than 50,000 catties, but it turned out to be more than 80,000 catties!
After being stunned, she didn't know what words to use to express her excitement, the emperor and the earth, the blessing of the Buddha, the gift of Mother Earth, so precious, the feedback of nature, so heavy, how can she be good?
The people in Zhuangzhong were also excited, but Gao Shiman's excitement was very different from theirs. Corn is one thousand acres and four, which has made everyone happy, eight thousand catties, what concept, enough to make everyone stunned, how did they know that the so-called sweet potatoes that are guarded every day are so high! It tastes so good, it's much better than corn!
Gao Shiman couldn't sleep all night, she cried several times, maybe no one can understand her mood and gratitude, she was born in the countryside, grew up in the vast world, her childhood full of laughter, all of which are the joy and happiness brought to her by the land and nature!
She is grateful to God, to the earth, and to all the people around her. This is an emotion that all people in the city can't feel, she cheers for herself, she doesn't have to be humble at this time, only pride in her heart!
She made a detailed record of the minimum number of catties of sweet potatoes, the maximum catties, and the yield per mu, which was very detailed.
It was sleepless at night, and finally stayed up until dawn, she got up in a hurry and wrapped a big red envelope for all the people in the Zhuangzi, this harvest is inseparable from everyone's efforts, Gao Shiman told everyone to take good care of the sweet potatoes that have been put into the cellar and the remaining ten acres, and returned to Beijing with two carts of sweet potatoes and the largest divine potato. She urgently needs to share the joy of this harvest with others, Shen Lixing is not in Beijing, in addition to Li Ling and Qin Er, she has to go to the emperor to curry favor.
sent a cart of sweet potatoes to Daoxianglou, and told her not to move it first, and wait for her to deal with it. She brought another cart of sweet potatoes and divine potatoes, and she didn't even have time to hand over the brand, asking to see the emperor.
When the emperor learned that Gao Shiman asked to see him, he thought something was wrong, and immediately let her see her. Gao Shiman's heart was agitated, and when he saw the emperor, he knelt down with a puff. The emperor was taken aback, and hurriedly left the case to help her and said, "Shiman, what happened, you tell me, I am the master for you!" ”
Gao Shiman raised his head, he was already in tears, and the emperor was in a hurry: "What happened!" ”
Looking at the emperor's anxious appearance, Gao Shiman suddenly burst into laughter. The emperor was stunned, it was inexplicable, he stared at her, very puzzled, Tong He was watching a play on the side, what happened to this young lady Shen today, crying and laughing, wasn't it a big stimulus? He looked puzzled, looked at Gao Shiman, and then looked at the emperor, and didn't dare to squeak.
Gao Shiman wiped his tears and snot with his sleeve, took out the detailed list he wrote last night and handed it to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know what to say, you can see for yourself." ”
The emperor didn't care whether she was "me" or not, so he took the paper and unfolded it and looked at it. The well-behaved father-in-law Tong hurriedly came over to help Gao Shiman and said, "Young lady, the emperor is in charge of you in big matters, don't be afraid!" ”
Gao Shiman laughed, this Tong and Bacheng thought that they were coming to sue, one of the things she didn't like the most in her life was to complain, she didn't have the ability to be bullied, she had the ability to directly kill the other party, any world, it was a matter of relying on strength to speak, and she was a fart.
The emperor didn't know if he didn't see it, he was startled when he saw it, he still didn't believe it after reading it, he glanced at Gao Shiman, and then stared at the dragon's eyes again. After reading it, I felt incredible, thinking that Gao Shiman knelt down as soon as she saw him, I was afraid that her mood was as hard to believe as herself.
He turned his head to look at Gao Shiman and said, "Shiman, this ...... It's true! ”
Gao Shiman calmed down after being pulled up by Tong He, the crying accompanied by someone is not called sadness, and the happiness shared by someone is called happiness.
She pursed her lips and smiled: "Your Majesty, you must be the master of the world." I really didn't expect this sweet potato to have such a high yield, the average sweet potato is only about one or two catties, the largest sweet potato is as much as fifteen catties, I have brought it, Your Majesty, please be the first to taste the taste of this divine potato, how about it? ”
Anyway, she is in front of the emperor, I am mine, and the emperor doesn't mind, so she just has it like this, and it is smooth.
Only then did the emperor know that this was not a dream, and he laughed and said: "Shiman, Shiman, I really didn't expect it, you are my lucky general of Great Xia!" ”
"Your Majesty, you don't want to taste it, I'm in a hurry", that divine potato is as much as fifteen catties, and she also wants to taste what it tastes like!
"Okay, bring it up, Shiman, how does it eat?" The emperor was in a good mood.
Tong He hurriedly went out to let people in, Gao Shiman smiled: "You can eat it raw or cooked, Your Majesty, it's too late to eat it, it's better to cut a piece and eat it raw!" ”
At the request of Gao Shiman, the emperor personally took a knife and cut the divine potato in half, and then Gao Shiman cut off a slice and handed it to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, please taste it, the skin can't be eaten." ”
Then she cut another piece and handed it to Tong Gonggong with a smile: "Tong Gonggong is close to the water, you can also taste it." ”
Tong He waved his hand again and again: "Young lady taste first!" ”
"Oh, you are an elder, you taste it first", Gao Shiman's mouth is as sweet as honey, anyway, whoever comes first and who comes later is the same taste, why not let this father-in-law of Tong be addicted. The emperor is the first, he is the second!
Tong He saw that the emperor didn't say anything, so he took it and put it in his mouth, and the last slice was naturally tasted by Gao Shiman himself, the sweet potato was sweet, and it was really a different taste for her.
"Is it delicious?" Gao Shiman was full of joy.
The emperor smiled and nodded, motioned for Gao Shiman to cut another piece, and asked her after eating: "This sweet potato can be eaten as rice?" ”
"Your Majesty, this sweet potato is just a coarse grain, it can also be used as a vegetable, and it could have been processed into snacks, but there are too few seeds this year, and there will be more planted next year, so I will ask someone to process them into potato chips and fries for the emperor to taste." This year's fruits are not easy to come by, so we should try to keep the seeds as much as possible and not waste them. Sweet potatoes are sliced and cut into strips, boiled, dried and then fried, which is an excellent teething snack, and Gao Shiman himself wants to eat it.
"How many acres have been planted this year?" The emperor asked excitedly.
"There are only 20 acres, your Majesty, this thing is much more abundant than corn, and it is drought tolerant and barren, and can be popularized and planted in large quantities in mountainous sandy lands".
"You and the household department have a good study, how to promote planting next year, Shiman, you are so capable, I am very pleased!" The emperor didn't know what words to use to praise her anymore.
"Your Majesty, I brought another car over today, and asked the emperor to distribute it to the adults of the household, only if they know that this thing can be eaten and delicious, they will fully cooperate with the emperor next year", she is nothing more than to please those people in the household, and cooperate with herself well next year, and what she said at this time is not good.
"Haha, Shiman has a heart, Lao He, go and call those people here, let them all come and taste them", the emperor gave an order, and Tong He trotted out.
Gao Shiman hurriedly stepped forward and hugged the other half of the untouched divine potato in his arms and said, "The emperor understands, I have to take this half back to my grandfather and grandmother to taste", but I can't let those adults come and eat it.
"Haha, it's cheap Shen Baoping, this old horseman!" The emperor laughed.
Gao Shiman took the opportunity to put the half aside first. As soon as the group of adults in the household department came, they really ate half of the divine potatoes, and learned that this was the new food grown by Gao Shiman, everyone was secretly frightened, and the emperor ~ After circulating the paper written by Gao Shiman to everyone, everyone said that they would plant it vigorously. One acre and eight thousand catties, what a concept! I've never heard of this in most of my life!
I'm afraid that the happiest person here is Liang Yanfeng, fortunately, his son has set Gao Shiman's sister-in-law, alas, he is really too discerning, let me ask who is more far-sighted than himself?
