Prince Koi, Ying Zheng forced me to become the second emperor of Qin

In the side hall of Xianyang Palace, sunlight shines through the curtains into the main hall.

There was a lot of noise.

After Ying Zheng and Wang Ben left, Li Si and other ministers were still discussing the food issue.

One of the censors had an unspeakable look on his face.

“Now that the world is at peace, many fertile fields are deserted. The only way now is to vigorously encourage the reclamation of wasteland.”

“Only in this way can we produce more and more food.”

“The yield per acre of chestnuts and wheat is only so much, so it’s useless no matter how hard we try. ”

As soon as these words came out, many ministers nodded.

Li Si also sighed and shook his head.

It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

If there is not enough food to eat, it cannot just pop out of thin air.

But even if we plant food again after spring, I am afraid it will not be possible. Meet the needs of so many people in the world。

“It would be great if, as General Wang said, there was a kind of grain that could produce a thousand kilograms per acre. ”

Although it was just a joke, Li Si couldn’t help but have delusional thoughts.

At this time,

a eunuch quickly ran in from outside the hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, he asked loudly:

“Who are agricultural officers?”

“Your Majesty summons you urgently! ”

When Li Si and others saw the eunuch, they immediately recognized that he was following His Majesty.

But didn’t His Majesty go to the back garden to find His Majesty Yingze?

Why did he suddenly summon the agricultural officials?

After hearing the order from the First Emperor, Even though several agricultural officials stood up,

“I’m just waiting, what’s the matter? ”

The eunuch didn’t dare to hesitate and immediately said:

“His Majesty Yingze discovered several new grains in the back garden. The yield is very high. Your Majesty needs you to measure the specific yield. ”

When all the ministers heard this, they were all surprised.。

“New grain? Found it in the back garden? Why does it sound so weird? ”

It’s not like they have never been to His Majesty’s back garden.

There are just some weeds in it,

but His Highness actually found a high-yielding grain in a pile of weeds???

This is like sitting in a pile of sand. It was like finding gold.

But Li Si’s eyes turned. He noticed the eunuch’s words, and he immediately asked,

“The yield is high, how high is it? ”

Is it possible to produce two to three hundred kilograms per mu?

After all, the usable yield is very high, and it will definitely not be worse than the yield of chestnuts and wheat.

If this is the case,

His Highness Yingze has made a great contribution.

Facing the inquiry of Zuo Prime Minister Li Si, the eunuch Knee-jerk answer:

“It seems to be a crop called sweet potato, which can produce six thousand kilograms per mu. ”

The eunuch only knew that when His Majesty and General Wang learned about this number, they were very excited.

But these eunuchs and maids have not read boo

ks and do not know what six thousand catties represents.

However,

these words fall on In the ears of Li Si and others, it was like a thunder exploded in their minds, startling everyone in the entire hall.

Li Si even walked up to the eunuch and asked with a shocked expression:

“You, what did you say? The yield per mu is six thousand catties? Are you telling the truth? ”

Not just Li Si, many ministers also stared at the eunuch with shocked expressions.

After all, what the eunuch just said was too shocking.

What is the concept of six thousand kilograms per mu?

Just like what Prime Minister Li Si just said,

even if it is good farmland Chestnuts and wheat, which have the highest yields, only produce 300 jins per mu.

And this eunuch

actually said that the yield of a certain crop can reach 6,000 jins per mu!!!

A full twenty-fold difference.

How is this possible? ?

How could there be crops with such horrific yields in the world?

What’s more, in the back garden of Xianyang Palace???

An agricultural official also said in shock:

“The yield per mu is six thousand catties? How can this be?”

“We have searched all over the world but have never seen a grain yield of one thousand jin per mu, let alone six thousand jin per mu?”

“What kind of crop can produce such horrific yields? The eunuch shook his head, ”

His Royal Highness Yingze said so, so His Majesty needs agricultural officials to measure it.” ”

Li Si frowned slightly

when he heard this. He had great doubts about what His Highness Yingze said.

Although His Highness Yingze was rumored to be smart since he was a child, he was only a six-year-old child after all.

He really understood that

the inheritance of mother-in-law What does six thousand pounds mean?

“Come on, let’s go and see if it’s specific, won’t we understand? ”

Li Si said immediately.

Although he didn’t believe it in his heart, since it was His Majesty’s order, let’s go and have a look.

After His Majesty’s confirmation,

even if the output is less than 6,000 kilograms, if there is one more food crop, it will be great for Da Qin. good thing。

“Yes, let’s go take a look!”

“The yield per mu is six thousand kilograms. I wouldn’t believe it unless I saw it with my own eyes.。”

“That’s right, let’s go take a look and see what the sweet potato with a yield of six thousand jin per acre mentioned by His Highness Yingze is?”

“If he could really produce six thousand kilograms per mu, His Highness Yingze would have made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty!”

“If this matter is spread, I am afraid that His Highness will be regarded by countless people as an auspicious sign for our Great Qin!”

“Go together, go together, sweet potato? I don’t know what he looks like? ”

All the ministers were very enthusiastic and followed the eunuch towards the back garden.
