Chapter 405: High-Yielding Crops
Yang Zhao didn't know what Sun Ce's reaction was.
Just when Sun Ce received Sima Yi, he had already returned to Linzi, dropped everything, and went home directly to take the child, more than half a year has passed since the last expedition, and the child has grown up a lot and knows how to recognize people.
After Yao'er knew how to recognize people, it was the first time she saw Yang Zhao, but she couldn't recognize it, she cried loudly, and coaxed for a while before she coaxed.
"Stinky boy, I don't even recognize my father."
Yang Zhao almost wanted to spank him.
When the ladies saw this, they couldn't help but laugh.
"The husband spends more time with the children at home, and he will soon be remembered by the children." Dong Bai said with a smile.
"When is my husband going to leave again when he comes back this time?" Elk Zhen asked reluctantly.
"I don't know."
Yang Zhao shook his head and said: "It depends on the situation, if you need to fight, you have to leave immediately, the north has been almost beaten by us, you shouldn't have to fight frequently, I can accompany you for a long time." ”
Qiao Shuang said softly: "Husband must accompany Sister Zhaoji well, I want to have a child, I have thought about it for a long time." ”
"Why!"
Cai Yanqiao's face turned red again, and she was not too embarrassed to admit it.
Cai Jing smiled: "My sister is blushing! ”
They got together and chatted for a while, Yang Zhao handed over the child to Jiang Er, asked her to take it down to feed, and then let them stay by his side, and asked what happened at home when he went on the expedition, etc., to keep in touch with each other.
After coming back from this expedition, Yang Zhao really needs to wait a long time before he can go on the next expedition.
Except for Youzhou in the north, they have all been defeated, and then it depends on who provokes the next war first, Yang Zhao will not take the initiative to provoke it for the time being, he has to let the other party shoot the first arrow, and then he will use the crossbow to fight back.
At night.
When Yang Zhao returned to the bedroom, he saw that Cai Yan was already waiting for him, and he really wanted to have children.
"Husband!"
Cai Yan's voice was soft.
As a woman for many years, she is like a ripe peach, which makes Yang Zhao see it and want to bite it.
"Akihime."
Yang Zhao screamed, then got into the quilt and hugged the person into his arms.
Cai Yan's body softened, and he took the initiative to kiss Yang Zhao's neck.
The two lingered for a moment, and then began the man-making operation tonight.
——
The next day I came back.
Yang Zhao first went to the government office and found Li Ru to ask how the potatoes and other crops were doing.
Those new crops can change the food structure, production mode, and business model of the Han Dynasty, etc., and their status is super important, if they can be cultivated and developed smoothly, it will benefit the people of the world.
"It's planted."
Li Ru first took Yang Zhao to a cellar.
The storage of these things, Yang Zhao also wrote in his letters, except for corn that is best boiled fresh to eat, or dried and preserved, potatoes and sweet potatoes are hidden in the cellar.
As long as it is well kept, it will not sprout and will not rot.
"That's all?"
Yang Zhao looked at it for a moment, sweet potatoes and potatoes looked like they were only a few hundred catties.
Sun-dried corn, with a basket, doesn't seem to be a lot.
"These are just some of them."
Li Ru explained: "I asked people to plant a batch of seeds brought back by the lord, and the yield was very high, and some of the fruits of the first batch of planting were left here, and the rest were used as seeds, and they continued to be planted, and they could be harvested in more than a month." ”
Their speed, it's still that fast.
Yang Zhao nodded with satisfaction and asked again, "How does it taste?" ”
Li Ru said: "The potatoes are soft and glutinous, the sweet potatoes are sweet, and the corn is distinct, chewy, and sweet. The most important thing is that these crops are easy to fill the stomach, and the lord's letter is right, these things can replace staple foods in the future, so I want to plant and promote them as soon as possible. ”
Yang Zhao was also a little greedy when he heard the words of continuation, and hurriedly said: "Cook the sweet potatoes, I will also taste them, and then find me a cook." ”
Li Ru immediately found someone to arrange it.
Yang Zhao told the cook how to cook sweet potatoes and potatoes.
There are many ways to make these things, you can cook them directly, and the potatoes can also be shredded to fry, and you can't finish eating, and you are worried that they will be rotten, and you can also dry them and make them into powder, and make them into sweet potato flour and other things.
Even if you can't eat it after making sweet potato flour, it can still be used for farming.
For example, it is used to raise pigs, and these are given to pigs to eat, and then meat is produced, but the people of the Three Kingdoms era still do not know how to raise pigs, which is another opportunity to develop agriculture.
Now there is enough staple food, and in the future, it will be possible to achieve food and clothing for most people through the cultivation of a small number of people, so there are also prerequisites for the development of commerce and aquaculture, and industry can also be developed.
With the development of the aquaculture industry, the people's recipes can be much richer.
Meat is no longer a luxury.
In Yang Zhao's mind, he quickly went through these times.
Next, we have to make another plan.
The cook's speed was very fast, a pot of shredded potatoes fried meat, and a pot of boiled sweet potatoes were served.
Yang Zhao called everyone over and ate a bite of sweet potatoes first, it was really sweet and delicious, or purple-hearted, no different from what he ate before the crossing, and the production of the system was really powerful.
Sweet potatoes are no longer a novelty for Li Ru.
I've eaten it once before.
But stir-fried meat with shredded potatoes is the first time I've seen it.
The cooking method of stir-frying has long been brought by Yang Zhao, and they have sandwiched some together to eat.
"This is delicious!"
"It turns out that potatoes can still be cooked like this, cut into shreds to stir-fry meat, which is more delicious."
"Originally, I didn't like to eat boiled potatoes, but this kind of fried potatoes directly changed my opinion."
"Delicious ......"
They were amazed.
However, in front of Yang Zhao, he was embarrassed to eat too much.
Xun Chen admired: "The sweet potatoes and potatoes brought back by the lord will definitely change the world." ”
"And that's not all!"
Guo Jia narrowed his eyes and said: "These things can completely replace the staple food, as long as it is implemented, the social security system mentioned in the previous letter of the lord, as well as the encouragement of childbirth, etc., can be realized, and high-yield grain is the guarantee to achieve these." ”
Hearing this, they all nodded.
"Potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn can go down in history."
Tian Feng said solemnly: "If it can be promoted throughout the world, and the output can be maintained so high, in a year or two, there will be no hungry people in the world." ”
"That's right!"
The crowd agreed.
They seem to be able to see a new kind of hope in Yang Zhao.
Yang Zhao said: "The second batch will be planted, and you will have to wait another month, and then you will use the planted seeds as seeds, first send a batch to the Hetao area, and then distribute them to farmers in Xuzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou for planting, and the methods of planting and eating must also be taught." ”
After a pause, Yang Zhao said again: "Before tomorrow morning, I will give another detailed list of planting and eating methods." ”
"What if the people don't dare to plant?"
Simbi raised a more important question.
Whether these new crops can be eaten, what the yield is, and whether they are easy to survive are completely unknown to the people, and even if they are distributed, it is normal that they do not dare to plant them.
