"Cooked! Cooked! ”

The crew and even the farming soldiers cheered, in fact, in the past few days, some crew members have been unable to bear to peel the corn to check the growth.

However, only when Zhao Si spoke, he could officially start to check the specific situation and issue a report summary.

The crew is no longer a novice, they know that what grows in the ground and grows is his merit.

Zhao Si peeled the corn one by one, and saw that almost all of them were big and round, which was very different from the seeds he brought back before, and there was no doubt that this was the gain brought by the Puyu aura.

"Brother! Is it okay to collect! Jing had already excitedly picked up the scythe.

The corn landed, which means that the titles of all the crew members who have returned from going to sea will rise again, not only the crew members who followed Zhao Si to stay in the Lantian camp, but also the crew members who have returned home, and the titles will also be renewed.

Although Qin has a military merit system, it is extremely difficult to promote the title! These yellow corns are not just new crops for all the crew.

Including Zhao Si, the same is true!

"You can't take it now! To play first in Your Majesty! Zhao Si waved his hand, and then continued.

"Let's take a look at the sweet potato potatoes!"

The growth cycle of sweet potatoes is about 110 to 120 days.

The growth cycle of potatoes is about 60 to 100 days, of course, this is the most suitable temperature and humidity for growth.

The corn matured in three months, and after it was ripe, it was not harvested as soon as it was harvested, but left on it and continued to be exposed to the sun for nearly 20 days, and the sweet potatoes and potatoes were all the same.

Wang Li ran to the sweet potato field with a smoke, cleared the sweet potato vines, and Wang Li, who was in high spirits, didn't use any tools at all, and directly started to pick up.

The floating soil was vigorously peeled away by Wang Li, revealing the sweet potatoes with the red skin stained with soil inside, only to see that the roots were densely packed, the big ones were as big as two fists, and the small ones had to have one fist at a time.

The roots are covered with mud and soil, densely packed, and there are seven or eight fruits from a sweet potato plant, and the size is different.

"It's one!" Wang Li looked at Zhao Si and the sweet potato in his hand in surprise.

Feel free to weigh Wang Li and know that the weight is not light, this is just one plant! How many plants can be planted in an acre of land? Wang Li vaguely remembered that there must be at least a thousand trees up.

How many pounds do you have in your hands? At least five or six pounds, right?

"Oh my God! 5,000 catties per mu! Wang Li staggered and looked at Zhao Si, didn't he say that the yield per mu was 500 catties? Of course, it is impractical to calculate the yield of an acre of land with a sweet potato, and a thousand or so sweet potatoes do not rule out the long difference, or the dead, and the yield per mu is estimated to be discounted, but then there must be three or four thousand catties, right? (Qin Jin)

"Didn't you say that the yield per mu was 500 catties?" Wang Li was surprised at this moment, although he was not from a poor background, but anyone with a little brain knew how much gold was in a few thousand catties per mu.

Nowadays, the average yield per mu of grain in Daqin is only about 100 catties.

"Oh my God, if all the land under the world is planted with sweet potatoes...... Wang Li couldn't convert it for a while.

If you can't finish eating, you can't finish it at all, let alone two meals a day, you can't finish ten meals a day.

"How is it possible, sweet potatoes are the most labor-intensive, if they are planted for a long time, a piece of land has to rest for a year and a half, and this thing is not suitable for storage, at most some are planted on the ridges." Zhao Si opened his mouth and said.

Zhao Si looked at the sweet potato in Wang Li's hand and was amazed, it was obvious that this was again affected by the aura of Puyu.

The original sweet potatoes he saw in the Americas did not grow so well, and the largest fruit hung out was only the size of a fist, most of them were only the thickness of one or two fingers, and now the sweet potatoes grown in Lantian Daying have almost completely become two species from the original sweet potatoes in the Americas because of the influence of the jade halo.

But this is a good thing, Zhao Si only dared to report the yield of 500 catties before because the sweet potatoes in the Americas have indeed not been domesticated, but he didn't expect that because of the aura of Puyu, the yield per mu of sweet potatoes exploded directly.

Of course, the yield of sweet potatoes per mu in later generations can even reach 8,000 catties to 10,000 catties, not to mention that Qin Jin is slightly smaller than modern catties.

"That's enough!" Wang Li looked at the sweet potato in his hand as if he was looking at some rare treasure.

"It is planted on the ridges, and the yield like this is enough for the family to have no worries about hunger."

The biggest advantage of sweet potatoes is that they do not pick the ground, which Zhao Si once said to Wang Li, there are many places where there is no way to grow food at all, which can be used to grow sweet potatoes, so that even if the grain is not harvested, there will be no famine if there are high-yield sweet potatoes.

Zhao Si nodded, the truth is indeed the truth, sweet potatoes are definitely impossible to replace mainstream crops.

First of all, it is difficult to extract starch, followed by not suitable storage, in addition, it hurts the stomach for a long time, in history, sweet potatoes were introduced to the Central Plains during the Ming and Qing dynasties, and they have not replaced the status of rice and wheat, but that is from a macro point of view.

In fact, anyone who lived through the Great Famine would not comment that sweet potatoes were just the icing on the cake.

Zhao Si heard from an old customer that during the great famine, the family survived by relying on the little sweet potatoes grown on the mountain.

It is true that sweet potatoes are not as valuable as staple grains, and they are indeed not as valuable as staple grains, but to say that they have little effect on the poor is purely divorced from reality and detached from the broad masses of toiling people.

This thing, in the prosperous years, may just be a taste adjustment, and can only be used to enrich people's tables, feed pigs, feed cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, but whenever there is a famine and troubled times, it is undoubtedly a treasure to save the country and save the people.

"Alright, let's go see the potatoes!" Zhao Si clapped his hands and led the crew over.

At present, the stems and leaves of the potatoes have completely withered and yellowed, Zhao Si did not hesitate, grabbed the stems and leaves and pulled them out directly.

There were four potatoes hanging from top to bottom, each the size of a fist.

Zhao Si showed such a look on his face, the old potatoes were also affected by his jade aura, and the fruit produced by this potato plant was as heavy as three or four catties.

After calculation, the yield per mu of potatoes can actually reach two or three thousand catties.

"Wow! You're fooling me! Seeing the freshly unearthed potatoes, Wang Li's face was still shocked.

He was even a little numb, even if the yield of sweet potatoes was so high, the yield of potatoes was also so high, how could these two things have a little yield of five hundred catties per mu?

It is slightly estimated that the yield per mu is more than 2,000 catties......

"What do you do, I dare to coax you, do I dare to coax Your Majesty? I'm just being a little conservative. Zhao Si said with a smile.

"Isn't this just a little more conservative?" Wang Li punched Zhao Si, this is a crop with a yield of several thousand catties per mu, and Zhao Si actually only reported five hundred catties.

"Haven't you heard the story of Huainan as an orange and Huaibei as an orange? I didn't expect the output to be so high, maybe that side is Huaibei, but our side is Huainan. Or maybe Your Majesty will return to the destiny of heaven......" Zhao Si smiled, sat on the ground and stroked the potatoes in his hands.

Potatoes are actually much more important than sweet potatoes.

Because potatoes taste better, secondly, the impact of long-term consumption on the body is not too great, and finally, this thing is cold and drought resistant.

Can be planted in the cold land of Saibei!

I have the impression that the native species of the potato seems to be poisonous, and I don't know if the jade halo can get rid of the poison.

If it is non-toxic for a long time, this thing will be of great significance.

Further north, in the remote places where the cold is perennial, potatoes can also be grown.

The territory of the territory, the territory that can grow food is the territory of the good territory.

In the past, it was cold all year round, and I couldn't grow food after fighting, so I could only live on fishing and hunting.

It is also a beautiful thing to knock down Siberia and catch some criminals and throw them over to plant potatoes.

Moreover, the climate in the north of Europe is cold, and ordinary grain cultivation simply cannot meet the demand...... But potatoes can.

All in all, the biggest significance of this thing to Great Qin is that there were originally a lot of lands that had no value for Great Qin to conquer, but suddenly became valuable for conquest.

Originally, some land that had no development value for Daqin also had development value.

Liaodong and Liaobei regions...... Highland area...... These places suddenly have the value of conquering and developing.

Although the value of conquest and development is still limited by the natural environment, climate and conditions, it does provide new possibilities for Daqin.

At least it won't be lost after the fight, and after thinking about it, I found that although I won the battle and expanded the territory, I lost my money.

Corn and wheat are rotated to provide additional food income and enrich the development of the livestock industry.

Sweet potatoes are grown in places where food cannot be grown to improve the ability to resist natural disasters.

Potatoes, the attributes of cold and drought resistance provided Daqin with more possibilities and directions of conquest.

What is the significance of three and one?

Wang Li didn't understand this, but excitedly grabbed Zhao Si's arm.

"You're reporting a little bit worse than that."

"I'm afraid it's going to be a straight up!"

Five hundred catties and a few thousand catties are completely two numbers, Zhao Si is too conservative, before Wang Li thought that Zhao Si estimated that the title could jump a few more levels, and touched the threshold of Qing, now, Wang Li is not sure how high Zhao Si's title can rise.

It's unprecedented!

And Wang Li, as the person directly in charge, can also get a lot of credit, which is too great, but anyone who is involved in it can share a profit or two.

"One grow, not necessarily a good harvest!" Zhao Si shook his head.

He is not so optimistic, Zhao Si knows in his heart that such a high output is because of his jade aura, whether it is one-time or all the time, Zhao Si himself can't say.

If it's just a one-time thing, and when it is popularized, the output will be ordinary, wouldn't it become a crime of deception? Even if the First Emperor will not take back his previous reward because of his face, I am afraid that he will become a marginal person.

It is not advisable to be high-profile, and Zhao Si knows that there are some things that must be made clear.

Wang Li didn't care so much, he was already in a hurry to write a recital and prepare to play.

A group of crew members gathered around Zhao Si and Zhou Dynasty to share the joy.

Although the lion's share of the credit belongs to Zhao Si, there are not a few credits they can get, and with such a high output, the triple jump of the title is not excessive.

Looking at everyone's joyful expressions, the smile on Zhao Si's face gradually converged.

Zhao Si couldn't open his mouth about the matter of the jade aura, this thing was too metaphysical, once it involved this kind of divine and ghost thing, the first emperor would really refine himself into an elixir.

The problem now is that corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and all three crops are produced very well.

It's so impressive that a person will be shocked when they see it.

Including the First Emperor!

And Zhao Si just needs to pour such a basin of cold water.

In case the jade aura was a one-off, Zhao Si could certainly quibble and exonerate himself in a way that he didn't know, but Zhao Si didn't want to consume the enthusiasm of the First Emperor.

That's a few thousand catties per mu......

The news spreads all over the world, how many Li Shu will be looking forward to it?

"Why is my brother so melancholy?" Jing noticed Zhao Si's serious thinking expression and asked.

Zhao Si just shook his head.

He just conservatively said the output of five hundred catties, and no matter how many sweet potatoes and potatoes in this era are, it will produce eight or nine hundred catties, and it is possible to exceed one thousand catties, but it will not exceed too much.

Who knew that his jade aura was so powerful.

The output is too high, but it has become Zhao Si's trouble!
