Chapter 144: The potatoes are ripe too

Lord Qin Cha Gu was stunned for a moment, his face was shocked, thinking of Village Chief Li's words last night, he was indeed puzzled at that time, "I don't believe it." I only believe it if I see it with my own eyes. ”

So, early in the morning, he came on horseback.

"In that case, Master Gu, you go directly to the capital empty-handed like this, and the persuasion is not strong." Liu Paner suggested that she also hopes to promote sweet potatoes so that more people can eat well, which is equivalent to the more people she saves, the more merit she will get, the space will become larger, and the things in it will become more.

Helping Lord Qin Chagu is helping yourself, which is a win-win result, so why not?

When it comes to the mother's position, Liu Pan'er feels that this Lord Qin Cha Gu is quite reliable!

Lord Qin Cha Gu smiled and nodded, feeling that Liu Pan'er made sense, "You're right, does Liu Niang have a good way?" ”

Since everyone only believes what they see, Master Gu put these sweet potatoes in a basket with roots and soil and brought them to the capital together. The sweet potato that grows on the root of the sweet potato seedlings can prove that a sweet potato plant can have an average harvest of about ten catties, and there are about 700 sweet potato seedlings in one acre, as long as you can do arithmetic, you can calculate the yield of one acre. ”

Hearing Liu Pan'er's suggestion, Lord Qin Cha Gu felt that this method was very good, although it was not as fast as riding a horse alone, but it was more convincing. Day and night, you should be able to reach the capital in seven days.

"Liu Niangzi, your method is very good, then please leave it to you." Lord Qin Cha Gu thanked her, this Liu Niang was very thoughtful.

When this matter is over, he will definitely thank Mrs. Liu.

Liu Pan'er chuckled and pointed to the six sweet potato seedlings that were still in the soil, "Master Gu has the people in his heart, and I am just doing my best." I picked six and will dig up later. ”

Lord Qin Cha Gu pondered for a moment, "Liu Niangzi, you can let people prepare now, there will be a carriage coming later, get it loaded into the carriage, go directly to the capital, and wait for me to count the yield of this acre of land, and ride back to the county seat directly." ”

Liu Pan'er responded, "Yes, Master Gu, I'll go to the village to find new baskets and oilcloths." ”

"I'm tired." Lord Qin Cha Gu said politely, excited in his heart.

Liu Paner and Li Dabao went to Carpenter Li's house in the village, and his family had a ready-made big basket. Liu Pan'er directly asked for ten, and then brought some oilcloth from home, ready to spread it in a basket to keep the moisture in the soil. In this way, when it is transported to the capital, the sweet potato seedlings may still be alive!

When Liu Pan'er brought back the basket, she began to take her son to dig the sweet potatoes carefully, first digging from the periphery, like digging ginseng, and cleaning up the soil around the sweet potatoes little by little, and then leaving the complete sweet potato rhizomes and the sweet potato seedlings on top.

Soil had been put in the basket in advance, and then Liu Paner carefully carried the sweet potato seedlings, Li Dabao held the rhizomes below, and the mother and son cooperated tacitly, and there was soil dug out of the ground in it, so a complete sweet potato was planted in the basket.

Liu Paner also carefully coiled the sweet potato seedlings in a clockwise circle on the basket and sprinkled a little water.

Seeing that Liu Pan'er was so careful, Lord Qin Cha Gu praised Liu Pan'er even more in his heart.

No wonder on the way to escape the famine, others didn't find sweet potatoes, but this Liu Niangzi could find them. Others didn't notice the power of the goldenbark leaves, but she did, and made them into simple and effective goldbark leaves, which made those bandits lose their armor and cry wolves.

If this is a man, he will definitely be able to do something great.

As a woman, there are always a lot of restrictions.

One morning, Liu Paner took Li Dabao to do this, and in six baskets, six complete sweet potato rhizomes and sweet potato seedlings were loaded.

Lord Gu walked around the ground, and asked people to notify the local county order to come over, and when the local Liu County order was the magistrate, he would also play it, and by the way, he could also testify to him.

When Lord Qin sent Gu to the potato field, he was very curious and asked Liu Pan'er: "Lady Liu, what is this?" ”

Liu Paner replied respectfully: "This is a potato, but also a fruit and a rhizome, this thing is noodles, not sweet, it can also be steamed and eaten, or fried and eaten." ”

Lord Qin Cha Gu saw that some of the branches and leaves were already yellow, "Lady Liu, is this ripe?" Can you dig it out and take a look? ”

Liu Pan'er nodded and greeted Li Dabao, "Dabao, let's dig potatoes and see how they look." ”

Coincidentally, the potatoes are ripe too.

Liu Pan'er's eyes lit up, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she looked at Lord Qin Cha Gu with a smile, "I patronized digging sweet potatoes before, but I actually forgot that the potatoes at home are about to be harvested, and it is also the first time to plant, so I have no experience." There are about two acres of potatoes here, let's dig one acre of land first and show it to Lord Gu. ”

When the people in the village heard that Lord Qin Cha Gu was coming, people came to help one after another, and even the three widows heard that Lord Qin Cha had a reward today, and urged their daughter-in-law to come over with a shovel and shovel to help.

With these people joining, Liu Paner is much easier.

She took Li Dabao and continued to carefully dig potatoes and put them in baskets. Others don't know the yield of potatoes, but Liu Paner knows that the yield of potatoes is not lower than that of sweet potatoes.

When Master Gu saw that the roots of each potato plant could also grow more than a dozen large and small round potatoes, he hurriedly squatted down and took a closer look.

Lord Qin Cha Gu held a palm-sized potato in his hand and weighed it in his hand, "Liu Niangzi, the yield of this thing is not low!" ”

Liu Pan'er smiled, "It shouldn't be low, but how much it is, you have to dig out an acre of land to know." Lord Gu, there are so many people in the field to help, I will go home to cook and entertain Lord Gu. ”

Master Qin Cha Gu thought of the meal he ate at Liu Pan'er's house last time, although it was simple, it was not ordinary, and it tasted very good, so he readily agreed, "Thank you Liu Niang." ”

Before leaving, Liu Paner explained to Li Dabao, "Dabao, you are the eldest son of our family, you are with Master Gu, if there is anything, you can go home and ask me, or ask the village chief's grandmother." ”

Li Dabao puffed up his chest, "Mother, don't worry, I have grown up and can stand up for the door." ”

Liu Pan'er smiled and patted Li Dabao's head, "Okay, you are a man in our family, amazing!" ”

Hearing his mother's praise, Li Dabao became more confident.

Before leaving, Liu Paner explained to Zhou Cuihua, "Auntie, I'll go home to cook, please take a look at the things in the field." ”

Zhou Cuihua responded, "Yuanqing's family, you can rest assured to go back, and leave the land to me." There are so many high-yield crops in our fields, and now that Master Gu is going to send them to the capital, is our Lijia Village going to be famous in the capital? ”

Liu Pan'er smiled and nodded, "Auntie is right." ”

Liu Paner carried a basket to pick some peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, long beans, and freshly dug potatoes, she also took seven or eight, and she could also cook.

Sour and spicy shredded potatoes, potato roast meat, must be done.
