Jiang Xinyan looked at General Zhao's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and wanted to give him a little face, so she said to herself.

"We also have land with bad sunshine or bad soil, and the yield of potatoes per mu is about 800 catties!"

"Really? Then you just said that it is about 3,000 catties, which scares me, our land is very good, about 1,000 catties per mu. ”

Zhao Chengan finally said boldly, if Brother Chu planted potatoes with a high yield of more than 3,000.

He wanted to cry, when they planted potatoes, the Nanban had not yet invaded in a big way, and Xichu was not ready to move.

He led the soldiers to work hard every day, hoping to grow potatoes better.

Because, all of them have eaten chicken potatoes, not only the taste is wonderful, but also very filling, eat a meal of wild boar stewed potatoes, and do not feel hungry for a day.

Every day, his soldiers would go to the field to see the potatoes whenever they had time, and some of them were like ancestors, kneeling down every day to worship the heavens, hoping that the potatoes would sprout.

After sprouting and growing, I prayed to God and Buddha to hope that the potatoes would blossom and bear fruit, anyway, I went every day.

Although Zhao Chengan did not kneel and beg to worship, he also silently prayed in his heart that the potatoes would ripen quickly.

"General Zhao, your potato yield of 1,000 catties per mu is not bad, after all, you are not a professional grower.

You are brave and good generals, and your greatest skill is on the battlefield. Jiang Xinyan comforted them.

Chu Lixuan doted on his little wife's proud display, and then looked at Zhao Chengan and the lieutenant generals with a surprised look, how could he think he wanted to laugh!

There is nothing wrong with the couple farming day and night, but it is not as day and night farming as they imagined.

The couple farmed in the space at night, and their high potato yield was due to the watering of the spiritual spring.

There are also dozens of acres of land in the castle that have not been watered with spiritual spring water, and ten acres of land are only dug 8,000 catties! The yield per mu is almost 800 catties.

Therefore, Zhao Chengan said that their best land yields less than 1,000 catties per mu, and their level of growing potatoes is also okay.

The main thing is that the potato seeds are produced in space, and his daughter-in-law means that the potato seeds are already improved seeds.

The improved seeds have a lot more yield than the seeds they usually plant, and they have Lingquan Gat, so the yield is super high.

Chu Lixuan likes to see her suddenly, he likes to see her shining appearance the most, and his heart is as sweet as honey.

Zhao Chengan was comforted by Jiang Xinyan, and he was also very happy in his heart, after all, they had been able to eat potatoes recently.

"Mrs. Chu, you said that you planted 100,000 hectares of potatoes, about 3,000 catties per acre, and one hectare is 100 acres of land, then you planted 10 million acres of potatoes, how many potatoes do you have to harvest?"

Zhao Chengan's military advisor bowed down and asked for advice, he was a civil servant, he was brilliant, and he was the most powerful in arithmetic, not comparable to these reckless men who fought in wars.

However, he couldn't figure out how many, maybe he did, but he couldn't!

Because of their Dongchen Kingdom, there are no numbers of more than 100 million, and even 100 million is an astronomical number, and few people know it.

The military advisor knows, but the potatoes grown by Mrs. Chu and her husband can't be said with 100 million!

When Jiang Xinyan heard the words of the military advisor, she understood that few people used 100 million in ancient times, and the income of ancient people was low, even if there were few numbers of more than 100,000.

However, the concept of billion did exist in the Spring and Autumn Period, and she was not sure if the people here knew it.

Jiang Xinyan suddenly remembered that the Qing "Kangxi Dictionary" recorded that the word 100 million actually has two concepts, one is 100,000 and the other is 10,000.

The number of billions has two methods, large and small, and its decimal number is equal to ten, ten trillion is billion, and one billion is trillion; Its large numbers are in the tens of thousands, millions to millions, and ten million are billions.

Later, during the Beiyang Warlord and the Anti-Japanese War, the situation became even more chaotic, and even dragged the word "Zhao" into the water......

However, the grain of Dongchen Kingdom is measured in stone, which is equivalent to one million to billion.

Because one stone is one hundred and twenty-seven catties, for example, one hundred and twenty-seven thousand catties of potatoes is one hundred thousand stones.

Ten million catties of potatoes in modern times is 100 million, so Dongchen Kingdom is 100,000 stones, which is 100 million.

Jiang Xinyan wanted to divert from the topic of specific numbers, "We have not only planted 100,000 hectares of potatoes, but also 50,000 hectares of rice, some of which have just been born for a long time.

Some have already been harvested, (referring to the rice they planted in space) in our bitter cold land, the yield of rice per mu is not high, and the early rice is about 700 catties per mu.

We also planted a lot of one-season rice, and the yield was a little higher, and some of us harvested rice every day and continued to plant late rice.

More than 100,000 hectares of forest in Daling Mountain, we have also reclaimed it, planted corn, soybeans, mung beans, sorghum, corn and some beans have matured.

I also planted watermelons, and the watermelons are ripe, and now the harvest is full every day, and we can't eat it for tens of thousands of people, so I want to sell some to you.

Our potatoes have been ground into flour, which is as delicious as flour, and the corn has been ground into corn flour, which is very easy to transport.

We sold a little rice and corn flour in the town in front of us today, and the people in the town said that the rice was twenty-five wen a catty, and the corn flour was eighteen wen a catty.

Because we didn't have a lot of them, we didn't know the market price, so we sold them all.

In the end, I saw that some people were so evil, penniless, looking at the white rice and eager to swallow it. ”

Zhao Chengan and the deputy generals: "......" was so stunned this time that he couldn't close his mouth.

They also want to swallow the rice raw, too! Pity! They hadn't seen white rice for half a year.

What the Hou Mansion sent was brown rice, and some of it was still moldy brown rice, and since last month, there is no more moldy brown rice!

No wonder, the Marquis of Zhennan had endless grain to "sell" to the king of Zhenbei, and even to the emperor.

Didn't it mean that the whole family of Zhennan Hou was exiled by the emperor to the bitter cold land where birds don't?

They have endless food, and they are better off than their fourth-grade generals, or even better than their first-grade generals!

What kind of outlaw is this! Mother! I'll also take off my armor and go back to the fields, no! Let's follow Chu Ye to be an exile!

"Brother Chu, you are really capable! It's good everywhere, our barracks need food, how do you see how to sell it? Zhao Chengan also used an honorific title for Chu Lixuan.

"How to sell it? It's easy! Isn't it just to weigh the weight with a scale and then count the amount of silver? ”

After Jiang Xinyan finished speaking, everyone looked at her, silently thinking in their hearts that as long as I am not embarrassed, it is someone else who is embarrassed.

Zhao Chengan and the lieutenants: "......"
