177 acres yield 1,000 catties
Luo Ruisheng and Ma Xiang originally thought that their corn harvest was close to 1,000 catties, which had already surprised them.
After hearing An Jinchen say that the middle and low land they use, the corn they grow is not as good as the Xu family's high-quality fertile land, and the corn ears planted are long and full, and the yield is high.
When the two came to Xu's house together, Xu Liangce and An Jinchen were in the Xu family's grain field, watching the long-term workers measure the corn harvest with buckets.
After several people smiled at each other, they didn't speak again, looking at the long-term workers bucket by bucket, weighing the weight of corn per mu.
The standard bucket of the Tanglin Dynasty, one bucket of twelve catties, one acre of high-quality fertile land, a total of one hundred and five buckets of long-term workers, that is, about 1,260 catties of corn per mu.
After several long-term workers finished weighing, their hands were shaking with excitement, they had never seen an acre of land produce so much grain.
If they harvest so much grain per mu, will they starve to death every year in Wei County, the poorest county in northern Hebei?
"It's a loss, it's a loss, there is so much difference between an acre of fertile land and the lower land, it's really a loss!" Luo Ruisheng sighed and regretted.
Ma Xiang wanted to fan his ears and melon seeds, but Luo Ruisheng and the son-in-law of the Guo family planted some in the middle and lower places.
Only the inferior land he used all of them, and they were still leaning on the side of the mountain, his family only harvested seven or eight hundred catties per mu, and the best piece of land was only close to one thousand catties.
Every mu is less than three or four hundred catties of the Xu family, and he is the real loss.
Looking at Ma Xiang's bitter face, Luo Ruisheng was immediately cured, but his family was close to 1,000 catties per mu, which was much better than someone.
But when he turned his head and saw the smiling handsome young man, Luo Ruisheng felt that he was depressed again, how could he think that he lacked heart and eyes and had no tendons, obviously such a treacherous person.
Old man Xu's family really has a successor.
Hearing that Yuande Village was growing new grain with a high yield this year, the eight surrounding villages all ran to their village to help break the corn.
Looking at the peeled golden brown and heavy corn, the eyes of the surrounding villagers shone with envy.
They have heard that this kind of grain has been boiled and eaten, sweet and glutinous, and according to legend, the county magistrate also said that after drying corn, it can be ground into cornmeal and eaten as corn grain.
In the palace of the capital, Rong Ling, the chief of internal affairs, walked into the imperial study with a secret report in his hand.
"The emperor followed the people who went to Wei County, and there was news."
Emperor Qing'an raised his head from the pile of wrinkles, raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and took the letter with the wax seal in Rong Ling's hand.
After unfolding the letter and seeing the content on it, Emperor Qing'an paused slightly, and then showed a real smile in his eyes.
Qing An Chu originally sent someone to follow An Chuxia, just to let people observe whether she was qualified enough to get his promotion.
However, at this time, his eyes were full of appreciation, and he had already let Rong Ling know that this female champion of six yuan and first, I am afraid that her future career will be limitless.
"Allow zero! Have you heard that there is a grain yield of up to 1,000 catties per mu? ”
Rong Ling was taken aback, glanced at the letter that Emperor Qing'an put on the imperial case, and then said with his eyes slightly drooping:
"The slaves don't know, they only heard that the grain can reach four or five hundred catties when the yield is high, and the slaves who produce thousands of catties per mu have not heard of it."
When Emperor Qing'an was going to serve him for half his life and was worthy of trust, Rong Zero, shared the joy, and heard a childish voice outside the imperial study.
"Imperial grandfather, imperial grandfather, your little darling has come to see you!"
A pink-carved milk doll, unsteady in her footsteps, stumbled towards the imperial study, followed by a gorgeously dressed and chubby woman.
Emperor Qing'an heard the milky doll calling himself affectionately, his majestic eyes softened, and he smiled and asked Rong Ling to open the door.
"Hey, it's our honorable little Lanyue County Lord here, and your imperial grandfather is waiting for you inside." Rong Ling smiled and squinted when he saw the cute little doll.
"Rongrong... I miss you too. The little guy said sweetly.
"Oh, my little lord! The old slave can miss you too. ”
The four princesses looked at their daughter with a headache, who could tell her that a child who was less than two years old was so articulate and could fool people.
If I'm not mistaken, someone else's child of this age should not even be able to speak.
"Little girl, don't come in yet, in the imperial grandfather's study, there are no pastries for you."
Hearing what Emperor Qing'an said, the two little short legs of the county lord of Lanyue crossed the threshold with difficulty under the support of Rong Ling.
"Imperial grandfather, cake~"
The county lord of Lanyue walked to him with two small short legs, and was held by Emperor Qing'an to sit on his lap, and took a piece of pastry from the silver plate and put it in the little man's white and tender little hands.
"Let's eat it, little gluttonous cat, it's the same as your mother~"
"Father, you are talking ill of your sons and daughters behind your back!" The Four Queens said with a smile on their round faces.
"Huh... Ha, who said that the father said bad things about you, I mean Lanyue is as fat and cute as you. ”
The fourth princess knew that the imperial study was not a place where she could stay for a long time, and after saying something to Emperor Qing'an, she wanted to leave with the lord of Lanyue.
The little guy hugged Emperor Qing'an but didn't let go, buried his little face in Emperor Qing'an's neck, and ignored the four princesses who wanted to take her away.
"Lanyue, we should go back."
The fourth princess looked at Emperor Qing'an helplessly, "Father, put Lanyue down, this stinky girl should also teach her the rules." ”
"Hmph, who do you want to teach the rules, he is so young, you can't bear to let her learn the rules, I think your rules should be learned well.
Little girl, I stayed today, you go back! ”
Emperor Qing'an doesn't know if he is getting older, among the several princes and princesses, the four princesses have given birth to children.
He is now annoyed by the adult heirs who worry about him every day and the position under his buttocks, but Lanyue, who doesn't know anything, is now the most popular with him.
Pan Guifei knew that Qing'an had left Lanyue of the Four Emperor Girls in the palace, and she was so angry that she didn't know how many porcelain objects she had dropped again.
Thinking that he should also choose a concubine for the three princes who have become adults, and let the heirs of the four princesses be beautiful in front of Emperor Qing'an.
I don't know if she thinks like this.
Concubine Shu sat on the soft chair at the window, looking thoughtfully at the five princesses, and anyone with a discerning eye saw that the four princesses gave birth to the next generation of the royal family.
In front of Emperor Qing'an, she gradually became more favored than several other princes and princesses.
In the imperial city, in a spacious and low-key mansion, there is a tear mole under her eyes, usually in front of people, she is always a submissive woman, but at this time her eyes are gloomy looking in one direction.
"Master, do you want your subordinates to do it and get rid of that little bastard!"
The woman's voice was gloomy, "No, there are people who want to get rid of the mother and son more than us." ”
She wants to see how much her fourth sister, who pretends to be stupid in front of others, has the ability to protect the child until she grows up.
It is not easy for a child born in the royal family to grow up to adulthood.
