Li Dashan kept wiping the sweat from his forehead and felt excited, "Yes, my God, one acre of land can harvest several thousand kilograms. I have never heard of such high-yielding crops! Village chief, village chief, don't

Now that you have helped with the work, you should go to the county seat quickly and tell the imperial envoy that we have high-yielding sweet potatoes, weighing several kilograms per acre of land."

When Village Chief Li heard this, he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I'm going to tell the adults. If such a high-yielding thing can be grown in our north, the people will be able to have enough to eat."

Liu Pan'er patted her head. She actually forgot to show her merit, "Village chief, go directly to Gu's house and talk to Mr. Gu. I will leave an acre of land and wait until the imperial envoy arrives before digging. I will pack two baskets for you.

, send one basket to the delicious restaurant for shopkeeper Li to taste, and send the other basket directly to the Gu family."

Village Chief Li was not polite, "Okay, I'll go right away."

This time, Village Chief Li took his son Li Yuanjia with him to drive the ox cart, so he could have someone to look after him along the way.

At noon, Liu Pan'er invited everyone to eat sweet potatoes and taste them. Everyone ate the sweet potatoes and thought they were delicious, but they didn't eat the flatbread made by Liu.

Throughout the day, more than a dozen people dug out all the sweet potatoes from six acres of land, and carried baskets of them to the door of Liu Pan'er's house, piling them full.

Liu Paner's visual inspection showed that the yield per mu was at least 5,000 kilograms.

Liu Pan'er paid everyone their wages, but everyone else accepted them, but Li Er stupidly waved his hand and refused.

"From Yuan Qing's family, the sweet potatoes I have on my several acres of land are cut from the sweet potato seedlings picked from your field. You were kind and didn't want our money, but I, Li Er, can't take advantage of your family in vain. You are like this

There are more than two acres of sweet potatoes, and my family will help you for free. I can’t control others, but I, Li Erlu, will not take advantage of your family.”

Liu Pan'er was quite surprised. She used to think that this idiot Li Er was very naughty and liked to take advantage. She didn't expect that he would do things so openly this time.

Li Dashan didn't ask for it either, "My sweet potatoes are also cut from your sweet potato seedlings. Without you, how could we have several acres of sweet potatoes?"

They may not know how much sweet potatoes are worth now, but when they harvest it, it is food and they can eat enough. This is kindness.

Those who had received money also put their money on the table and did not want wages.

Liu Pan'er didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said hurriedly: "Everyone works for my family, and I pay for the wages. It is a matter of course that we cannot do without the wages. Even if you don't pick those sweet potato seedlings, I will pick them and throw them away to prevent the leaves from growing too much."

, the sweet potatoes below won’t grow.”

"That won't work, I can't ask for wages." Li Erluzi had already walked away, determined not to ask for wages from Liu Pan'er's family.

Everyone also left one after another, saying that they wanted nothing from Liu Paner's family.

One of the villagers patted his thigh as he walked, "My mother, is what the Yuan Qing family said true? If you don't pick off the excess sweet potato seedlings on top, the sweet potatoes below won't grow big?"

Li Dashan nodded, "Isn't this an obvious thing? If it grows up above, it won't grow up underground."

"I was lazy and thought it didn't matter, so I didn't cut off the extra branches. Is it too late to go now?" The villager almost cried. Others collected five or six thousand kilograms, but his family received less.

It’s so heartbreaking!

Li Dashan scolded his nephew angrily, "I've told you before that you can't be careless when it comes to farming. You fool the land for a while, and the land can fool you for a year."

"Uncle, I know I was wrong, please remind me more in the future!"

"Uncle Dashan, these sweet potatoes are so delicious, how much can they cost per catty? Can they be sold for thirty cents per catty and a half?"

Li Dashan rolled his eyes, "What are you thinking? Let's calculate it as 5,000 jin per acre of land. At 30 cents per jin, one acre of land can be sold for 150 taels of silver. You think it's gold and silver grown in the ground?

?”

Li Er was in a good mood and said with a smile, "Brother Dashan is right, don't be greedy. Even if it's one penny per catty, this acre of land with five thousand catties is five taels of silver."

······

Every family in the village was very excited. They used to watch Liu Pan'er and the village chief's family harvest the crops in the fields and sell them for money. Now the sweet potatoes they planted can also be sold for money.

It's a novel gadget, and it's also high-yield. Maybe the price can be higher and it can be sold for a lot of money.

Mrs. Liu is responsible for cooking, taking care of the children and doing housework at home today.

At this time, she was dumbfounded as she looked at the sweet potatoes at the door and remained silent for a long time. Today's sweet potatoes were harvested from six acres of land, and there were so many sweet potatoes after harvesting them.

"Third brother and sister, this sweet potato is really high-yielding." Mrs. Liu sighed, holding the sweet potato in her hand as gently as if she were treating a child.

Delicious and high-yielding, it is simply a life-saving gift from God.

Liu Pan'er smiled and said, "Yeah, it's just that sweet potatoes are not easy to store. They need to be placed in a cool place. After they dry outside, we can put them into the cave."

Liu thought about it, "We can cut it into slices and dry it in the sun to preserve it for a longer time. With so many sweet potatoes, we no longer have to worry about not having enough to eat in the future."

Liu Pan'er replied: "Yes, and our rice will mature in half a month. Our paddy field of nearly ten acres can harvest a lot of grain."

The family is thinking about the good days of eating rice and sweet potatoes.

Let's say that Village Chief Li came to the county town with his son Li Yuanjia, and happened to arrive just before the city gate was about to close.

Village Chief Li took the sweet potatoes directly to the delicious building and found shopkeeper Li.

"Shopkeeper Li, these are our newly planted sweet potatoes. They are fragrant and sweet. They taste great when cooked or roasted." Village Chief Li smiled and said with a warm and polite attitude, "Shopkeeper Li, please accept them.

."

Shopkeeper Li recognized Village Chief Li, who came to sell peppers and tomatoes before.

Today they made a dish using tomatoes and peppers, which was very popular, so Shopkeeper Li was very polite when he saw Village Chief Li again, "Brother Li, please come quickly."

Village Chief Li shook his head, "Shopkeeper Li, we won't go. I will send the remaining basket to the imperial envoy Master Gu. The yield of this sweet potato is very high, with a yield of four to five thousand catties per mu. Master Gu loves the people.

If you are like this, you must be interested in this high-yielding crop."

"Ah?" Shopkeeper Li was stunned, and his eyes fell on the basket in front of him. There were palm-sized red fruits in it, "The yield per mu is four to five thousand catties?"

Village Chief Li replied: "Yes, Shopkeeper Li, four or five thousand catties is still a conservative number. Places with good land and plenty of fertilizers will produce more."

When shopkeeper Li heard this, he told the accountant to take the sweet potatoes to the kitchen and let the cook study how to eat them. He took Village Chief Li and his son directly to see the master.

At this time, Gu family.

Mr. Gu has been quite busy in Xunyang Mansion these days and has just returned home.

While drinking tea, I was talking to my grandmother about the things I had encountered outside the past few days, and picked some interesting ones to make her happy.

At this moment, the servant came in with shopkeeper Li.

Imperial Envoy Master Gu raised his eyebrows and asked doubtfully: "Shopkeeper Li, is there something going on at the delicious restaurant?"

Shopkeeper Li shook his head and replied respectfully: "Master, Madam, everything is normal in the delicious restaurant. Because there are tomato scrambled eggs, tomato egg drop soup and chili dishes, the business is 30% better than before. Come here now, this is Lijiacun

Village Chief Li sent two baskets of something called sweet potatoes, which have been harvested now. The yield per mu is as high as four to five thousand kilograms. They are specially sent to the delicious building and the young master."
