After listening to Liu Yu's words, Diao Chan, Zou Wan and other women were a little curious, but when all the potatoes in the back garden were taken out, Liu Yu ordered someone to weigh two catties!

But it was an astonishing discovery that this potato yield is more than 4,000 catties per mu!

(ps: One catty in the Han Dynasty was about equal to half a catty in modern society, and the yield of potatoes per mu was 3,000 to 5,000 catties in modern times, that is, Liu Yu planted it was actually 2,000 catties, which is not an exaggeration!)

What is the concept of more than 4,000 catties, this mu of potatoes, even if a person eats three catties of food at a time, it is enough for an adult strong man to eat more than 1,300 meals, and it will take nearly 600 days!

In this way, there will be no shortage of food in Great Xia!

Of course, Liu Yu naturally knows the importance of potatoes, if it is spread all over Qingzhou and Youzhou now, then it won't be long before these grains will be stolen by other princes!

Liu Yu is not a stingy person, in fact, when it is extended to the thirteen states of Dahan, it can indeed feed the current population of more than 60 million people in Dahan, or even more!

However, this time can be pushed back a few years, anyway, the land is only more than 3,000 catties now, which is not enough to spread all over Qingzhou!

Therefore, it is better to let the army take over directly, let the army carry out the tuntian in leisure time, and the subsequent production will be taken over by the army, so that it can be preserved!

And when Liu Yu won the entire north in the future, and then promoted the potatoes, it was the right way!

On the side, Cai Yan and the other women, who had already been stunned, were even more shocked, how could they not know what this 3,000 catties of grain per mu meant!

This is the population potential of the future Great Xia!

What do the people live for, isn't it just to eat and dress warmly, now the most basic life can be done by relying on potatoes, as long as the military discipline is strict under Liu Yu's rule, and there are fewer corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the people will definitely not rebel!

Not to mention, if it weren't for the fact that Diao Chan, who was born in a poor family, if it weren't for the fact that his family was too poor, how could he sell it to the palace as a show girl?

This is still the beauty of Diao Chansheng, if it is those who are not beautiful, but there are many children in the family, it is estimated that they will not be able to hold it for a long time!

As soon as he thought of this, Diao Chan suddenly burst into tears!

And Liu Yu, after learning that the final yield per mu was 3,000 catties, a boulder in his heart was put down!

For a long time, grain and grass have been the top priority under Liu Yu's command, and it is still a big problem, but now it seems that everything has confidence!

The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, and give Liu Yu a year or two to develop, and the grain and grass under his command will never be used up, so that there will be a place for Liu Yu in the world!

After solving a big stone in his heart, Liu Yu turned around, but saw several women looking curiously, Cai Yan, Zou Wan and others were becoming more and more beautiful, but Diao Chan was crying!

Seeing this, Liu Yu quickly stepped forward, then helped him wipe away his tears, and said with a smile!

"What's the matter, who bullied you, crying so sadly, it's not pretty!"

When she learned that Diao Chan was touching the scene, Liu Yu also smiled helplessly, but everything has a cause and must have an effect, and it is precisely because of this that she Diao Chan can get rid of the original trajectory and become Liu Yu's woman!

And the other women are naturally the same, after all, since ancient times, they have a lot of lives, and they can change their originally miserable lives, Liu Yu is still very happy!

......

Soon after, Liu Yu asked people to take potatoes to the council hall and convened the military council under his command!

"Quickly pass the order, let a few military advisors and generals come to discuss the matter quickly, and Gu Ke has to tell them a big thing!"

After Liu Yu smiled and spoke, the personal guards of the Tiger Guard Battalion quickly went to the mansions of the generals and military advisors and found them!

Not long after, Liu Bowen, Guo Jia, Xu Guanzhong, Li Zhu, Guan Yu, Guan Sheng, Qi Jiguang, Xu Huang and other generals came one after another, but they were a little surprised!

There's something weird in the center of the chamber!

"King Xia, what is this?"

Liu Bowen spoke first, after all, none of them had ever seen such a thing as potatoes, of course, in fact, in the Ming Dynasty, potatoes were indeed introduced to China, but Liu Bowen has never seen them now!

And after Liu Bowen spoke, the generals also looked at Liu Yu curiously, it is estimated that Liu Yu will find them this time, presumably because of this!

When Liu Yu heard Liu Bowen's words, he laughed and said!

"Ladies and gentlemen, Lone tells you, the name of this thing is called potato, it is something that Lone accidentally found, this thing can yield 3,000 catties per mu, and it has just been dug out of Lone's back garden!"

"Wait a minute, if this thing is promoted in Great Xia, then the lonely people of Great Xia will no longer starve to death!"

Boom, Liu Yu's words smashed on everyone's heads like a thunderbolt in the clear sky!

The people present are all smart people, and they naturally understand what kind of concept it is to produce 3,000 per mu, if there is really such a divine thing, then Daxia will usher in a prosperous era!

The reason why the rule of Wenjing and Guangwu Zhongxing can be praised is because there were not many people who died of war, starvation, and disease in that era, and the country was able to develop!

However, even in such a prosperous era, there is no shortage of things that happen due to the cannibalism of Yi Zi, so if Great Xia can really do it without starving to death!

Then, today's Great Xia can definitely make the people of the world come to vote one after another, and their hearts are full of Great Xia!

Therefore, such an important thing must be well preserved, at least not for now, it cannot be obtained by other princes, so that the advantage under Liu Yu's command is gone!

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Bowen suddenly got up, and then said to Liu Yu seriously!

"King Xia, the minister thinks that this item cannot be distributed to the people for planting at present, but should be managed by the military, let the army plant, and then deposit it in the treasury, and then distribute it to the counties!"

When Liu Bowen spoke, Xu Guanzhong also said with a smile!

"King Xia, I think this thing can't be planted on a large scale at the moment, so we can set up the Tuntian Army, so that they can supervise potatoes after training!"

......

"Okay, since that's the case, then from today onwards, the potatoes will be handed over to Yue Fei and Zhao Yun to lead the Tiger Guard Camp to take charge, and next summer, the people of Daxia will have food to eat!"

"The expansion of the army will continue to be carried out by Guan Yu, Xu Huang, Qi Jiguang and others, and then Daxia will rest and recuperate, waiting for the times to change!"

"The last general obeys!"

In fact, after Liu Yu gave the order, it actually showed that he valued Yue Fei and Zhao Yun beside him, if these two people were to do this well, they would have enough qualifications to be directly listed in the high-level of the Great Xia military generals!

And if it can really make the people of Great Xia not lack food, I think other civil and military forces will also be convinced!

Therefore, Liu Bowen and Guo Jia both took a deep look at Yue Fei and Zhao Yun, and it seemed that their own king attached great importance to these two people!
