Overjoyed, Ying Zheng immediately did not care about anything else, and directly led the civil and military officials, following Fusu, toward the experimental field outside Xianyang City, which was specially guarded by sergeants.

Many people also followed curiously.

They had long heard that His Highness the Crown Prince brought a magical auspicious crop from the fairy world when he descended to earth.

The yield per acre is as high as tens of dan, and it is very easy to grow.

But there are many people who don't believe it.

After all, the rice and wheat now widely grown in Da Qin only produce two or three stones per mu, and it also depends on whether God will reward him or not.

Once drought, floods and pests occur, production will be reduced.

The yield of tens of stones per acre is too outrageous, right?

Now that they heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually wanted to take His Majesty and the civil and military officials there to witness, they couldn't help but follow him.

Many of the descendants of the Six Kingdoms who were forcibly moved to Xianyang by the First Emperor were mixed in the crowd, and they even reported it as a joke.

Sure enough, after consecutive victories, Fusu finally got carried away.

I will expose your so-called auspicious lies later and ruin your reputation!

"What is being grown in these fields?"

Soon, the First Emperor discovered something was wrong and asked curiously

"Here are the high-yielding crops that Erchen once told his father. Fusu said with a smile.

Due to the wrong season, sweet potato seeds need to wait until next year to be planted, but potatoes have already reached their mature season.

"This grain is very different from rice and wheat, right?"

Neishiteng observed for a long time and concluded that the Great Qin Dynasty was based on agriculture and attached great importance to farming.

It even published a special"Tian Law" for this purpose.

The emphasis on agriculture in it will not lag behind even in later generations. For example , in February of spring, you cannot mine wood in the mountains and forests, and you cannot block channels and affect irrigation.

You are not allowed to burn grass as fertilizer until after the harvest in summer and autumn.

There are also special regulations for hunting and fishing every year.

It contains The thinking of protecting forest and animal husbandry, preventing water and soil and depleting the lake for fishing is absolutely ahead of the times.

For cattle, it is even more strictly protected. Even if the cattle die of old age, they must be reported to the county government for review before they are allowed to be slaughtered. Even if the cattle die of old age, they must be reported to the county government for review.

Ministers in the court who dare to kill farm cattle will be severely punished.

The reason why the Daqin Farmers are ranked among the hundreds of families and have many disciples is because of a provision in the"Shang Jun Law": as long as they submit to the court By paying 1,000 shi of food, you can become a public servant!

Although it is the lowest level among the twenty-level military merit and title system, it is still very desirable to many people.

It can be seen that Da Qin really attaches great importance to food!

"You will know exactly how it is when you go up there and experience it yourself! Fusu said with a smile.

It is normal for people to find it difficult to accept such an amazing thing.

The reason why he chose this time is to let more people see the terrifying constant of potatoes with their own eyes, so as to maximize the effect!

"What is this? Nestern ran directly to the field and pointed at the crops that the farmers were harvesting.

"According to His Highness, this is called potato or yam egg."

The farmer replied

"Can it be eaten?"

Neishiteng looked at the dark thing in front of him and said with doubt on his face.

"Of course you can, and it’s delicious!"

"But it cannot be eaten raw, it must be cooked."

Looking at Nestern who was about to stuff potatoes into his mouth without even caring about the soil, Fusu quickly stopped him.

Potatoes are different from sweet potatoes and cannot be eaten raw.

Nestern smiled awkwardly and then took it back. hand

"The yield of this thing can really be tens of dan per mu?"

Wang Jian jumped to Tianzhong at some point and hesitated for a long time.

It's not that he couldn't trust Fusu, but this number is so amazing.

It's so unbelievable!

"A few dozen stones is a guaranteed harvest. If it's more, a hundred stones won't be a problem."

Fusu waved his hand and said.

Considering how rare you are, I won't hold you accountable for not believing in this prince.

Wang Jian and others are completely confused.

Dozens of stones are actually just a guaranteed number.

The yield per mu is the highest. Can it reach hundreds of stones?

Are you really dreaming?

Even Ying Zheng, regardless of his own image, bent down to dig up the ground himself. It took him a long time to pull out a large bunch of potatoes with the help of Fu Su. came out.

His face was immediately filled with smiles

"The bunch in my hand weighs at least twenty or thirty kilograms!"

Ying Zheng said with excitement on his face.

Then looking at the densely packed seedlings in the field, Ying Zheng felt a sense of dizziness.

One plant weighed twenty or thirty kilograms, and this acre of land weighed at least several hundred. Pearls.

The yield per mu really starts at several thousand kilograms!

"Hurry, if you have specific figures, report them quickly!"

Ying Zheng repeatedly checked the potatoes in his hand and the dense potato seedlings, and said with joy

"Your Majesty, according to the arrangement of His Royal Highness, we have planted a total of thirty acres of potatoes, and twenty acres have been harvested."

"Among them, the yield per mu is small, about 50 shi!"

"The better ones cost about 70 shi!"

"The best piece of land is worth 109 stones!"

The farmer disciple in charge of management quickly introduced.

The whole field was suddenly silent.

The yield per mu......109 stones?

In other words, 13,080 pounds!

(One pound in the Qin Dynasty was half that now)

The smallest one weighed 50 shi or 6,000 pounds!

This data!

It’s simply amazing!

According to this statement, just these thirty acres of land can harvest twenty to thirty thousand shi of food, enough to feed the entire population of half the county.

You must know that the agricultural tax in Daqin was 20%. The previous tax for a county was only more than 200,000 dan per year.

Now in Fusu, it only takes a few hundred acres of land to grow so much food.

If it could be popularized, would Da Qin still need to worry about food?

Eat whatever you want, eat in different ways, you won’t be able to finish it!

If Fusu hadn't been the crown prince, this single contribution alone would have been enough to grant him the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!

Even Ying Zheng couldn't help but stumble, unable to imagine his own eyes and blackmail.

"Ha ha!"

After a long time, Ying Zheng suddenly looked up to the sky and roared.

"From now on, our people in Great Qin will no longer suffer from famine!"

"God bless Daqin!"

"God bless you!"

"On behalf of the people of Great Qin, thank you Fusu!"

Ying Zheng bowed deeply to Fusu, with a trace of tears on his face.

Fusu quickly returned the bow, and the father and son looked at each other and smiled.

Only then did the courtiers react, and they knelt down and started shouting.

"Long live your Majesty!"

"Long live the Great Qin!"
