Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Divine Artifact with a Yield of 267 Stones per Mu?

"There is no direct correlation between the ban on the sea and the increase in grain production."

"But it's about imported crops!"

"That kind of crop with a much higher yield than the grain of the Central Plains."

Lin Che's words made Zhu Fan dizzy.

Zhu Yuanzhang next door also listened to the clouds, imported crops?

What crops produce much more grain than the Central Plains?

Zhu Yuanzhang was also very curious, settled down, and continued to listen.

"Dare to ask sir, what kind of divine thing can save Daming from fire and water."

Zhu Fan chewed Lin Che's words, faintly understood, and immediately asked.

Zhu Fan knew what terrible consequences would be if the Xiaoice River period arrived, but he wanted to know what fairy crops could make Mr. Lin feel that he relied on this to survive the ice age.

"This is not a fairy crop, but it is much higher than our rice and wheat yield."

"These crops are overseas, if the emperor does not open the sea ban, where can he get the seeds of these crops."

"Bring me paper and pen, and I'll give you a sneak peek."

Zhu Fan quickly brought paper and pen and put them on the table.

Lin spread out the paper, used a brush to sketch a few leaves, and then drew the fruit underneath the leaves.

"Sir? This is?! ”

Zhu Fan looked at the black ink on the paper, his face was darker than ink, what is this?

How could there be such a strange-looking fetish?

"This is the artifact of your mouth."

Lin Che pointed to the ball of black ink and said with a serious face:

"This thing is called sweet potato, because it grows in Fanbang, it is also called sweet potato, and under the leaves is its fruit."

Lin Che explained as he casually drew an oval cylindrical thing with even protrusions on it.

"There's also this thing, called corn, and both of these crops are extremely productive and very satisfying."

Zhu Fan looked at the two lifelike pieces of paper seriously and secretly took a selfie.

How could I doubt Mr.'s Danqing technique, these two crops must look like this.

"Sir, how much do these two artifacts produce? So how do you grow it? ”

After thinking about it, Zhu Fan hurriedly asked, if even Mr. didn't know how to grow these two things, then the joke would be big.

You must know that tending to a crop well is not something that can be done in a short time.

Obviously, Zhu Fan regarded sweet potato corn as a wild primitive species.

"Let's talk about this sweet potato first, the yield of this thing per mu is nearly 267 stones, drought tolerance does not require high fertility, and the taste is sweet and satiety."

"As for the planting methods, there are many methods, there are rod insertion method, buried stem method..."

Lin Che thought for a moment in his mind, and said the habits and planting methods of sweet potatoes.

"What?! Twenty-six or seven stones per mu!? ”

Zhu Fan was dumbfounded and shouted in shock.

"What? Twenty-six or seven stones per mu! ”

The father and son of the Zhu family in the secret room were also surprised, and blurted out almost in unison with Zhu Zhang.

God bless me!

No, it's Mr. Lin who bless me Daming!

For a while, Zhu Yuanzhang almost cried with joy, and he couldn't wait to rush into the prison cell and kiss him violently with a fetish painting.

Twenty-six or seven stones per mu! What is this concept?

According to the unit of measurement of the Ming Dynasty, one stone is equal to one hundred catties, and twenty-six and seven stones are two thousand six or seven hundred catties!

This may not be shocking enough, so let's do the math.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, even the most fertile fields yielded only three or four stones per mu, and the yield per mu of fields planted by ordinary people was only one or two stones.

These haven't even arrived at a fraction of the yield per mu of sweet potatoes!

Think of it this way.

If sweet potatoes can really yield such twenty-six or seven stones per mu, they are really worthy of the word "gods"!

"Boss, did you write it down?

Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was hot and asked eagerly.

"Father, write it down."

Zhu Biao was sweating profusely, writing like a god, writing on the booklet, the speed of writing is so fast, it is smacking.

"Boss! Why is it so slow to write, if you miss a word, you will be asked. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhu Biao hadn't finished writing for a long time, so he glared at him dissatisfied.

"Father, I..."

Zhu Biao couldn't say anything, and he didn't dare to delay time, so he had to speed up his writing.

The hand speed is so fast that you can even see a burst of afterimages.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, and sure enough, everyone was forced out.

The next cell.

After learning that the two crops on the paper could yield 267 stones per mu, Zhu Fan held the paper in his hand and stared at the picture on it.

"Sir..."

Zhu Zhang's excited eyes were red, and Lin Che twitched in his heart, what kind of illness did this kid do again?

"I'm Da Ming, I'm Da Ming saved Mr..."

Zhu Zhang's voice choked and knelt down for Lin Che.

The next thing is to say something inexplicable.

What gentleman Kuang Fu Sheji, Mr. to save the Ming Dynasty...

What Ming is saved is the work of Mr...

Lin Che almost thought that the kid in front of him was the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

"Boss, this is our virtuous minister of the Ming Dynasty, after returning to the palace, he sent a message to Tang He, who was suppressing bandits in Fujian, and stepped up the organization of the fleet, preparing to go to sea to find these two crops."

Zhu Yuanzhang in the secret room was also embarrassed when he heard this touching words.

The other side.

"Don't get excited, the emperor still doesn't know if he can lift the sea ban, even if the sea ban is lifted, it is still unknown whether these two crops can be found in this sea."

Lin Che sighed and helped Zhu Fan up.

Hear the words. Zhu Fan's face, which was originally so excited that he had a handful of snot and tears, instantly petrified, and the whole body was stunned.

He looked at Lin Che in disbelief and almost fainted.

Da Ming... Will the country die after all?

Zhu Yuanzhang in the secret room was originally overjoyed, but now Lin Che's words are like cold water extinguishing the heat in his heart, and great compassion comes instantly.

There was a sudden colication in his heart, and Zhu Yuanzhang's body was paralyzed again.

"But it's not a big problem, even if you can't find it once, a fleet can't find it, let's send a few more fleets to find it many times, this thing is overseas, and it can still be found in the end."

Lin Che continued, and helped Zhu Fan with his hand.

"Sir... Will you be able to finish it all at once next time? My heart really can't stand it! ”

Zhu Zhang, who was supported by Lin Che, also woke up from the grogginess caused by cerebral congestion.

As soon as he spoke, the divine doctor was extremely weak, as if he had been squeezed dry.

Nonsense, who can withstand such ups and downs?

Don't you see the same with Zhu Yuanzhang in the secret room?

"Lin Che, do you think I'm too old?"

Zhu Yuanzhang wants to cry without tears, can't he finish it all at once?

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang's angina was relieved.

In this cell, Lin Che and Zhu Fan sat down again.

"That's it!"

Lin Che poured the wine from the wine jar into the wine cup of the two of them, and said lightly:

"After all, we are a master and apprentice, except for these knowledge accidents, I have nothing left for you..."

"But then again, I really have to thank you."

"Otherwise, in this edict, life is quite difficult, and there is not even a person to talk to.

"Hmm... I'm done with my lesson! ”

"No homework today!"

"From now on, you and I will not owe each other a master."

"You can make friends on an equal footing."

Lin Che's tone of farewell made Zhu Fan's mood fall directly to the bottom.
