After a while, the four plates of potatoes were eaten by the three of them in a hurry. If it weren't for the dignity on their faces, Yuan Dai even suspected that they would pick up the plates and lick them.
After eating Yuan Dai's potato set meal here, several people have no worries about whether potatoes can be eaten. If such delicious potatoes cannot be eaten, what else can be eaten?
So the potatoes were quickly distributed and planted. Because the potatoes obtained were limited, they were only temporarily distributed to some farmers with high planting levels. In order to encourage enthusiasm and let the farmers spend more time on it, Yuan Dai and others also set up
Reward system.
Anyone with high output will be rewarded with ten taels of silver.
These ten taels of silver are not much for dignitaries, but for ordinary farmers, they can live a prosperous life for half a year.
For a time, everyone's enthusiasm reached its peak.
The county magistrate took a paper and pen and calculated that now they have a total of three hundred potatoes. If death is not taken into account, and each potato grows eight new potatoes, that is... that is...
..
The county magistrate frowned and drew back and forth on the paper for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a result.
Seeing the other party struggling to calculate, Yuan Dai couldn't bear it anymore. She walked up and directly filled in the answer: two thousand four hundred.
The county magistrate cast a puzzled look, and Yuan Dai explained: "If we follow this rate, the first batch of output will be 2,400."
So? What the Queen is saying is that these two thousand four are the result of calculation?
It's not that he doesn't trust the Queen, it's just that the speed of the Queen's arithmetic is so fast! It's so fast that people think it's a randomly made up number.
He bit the bullet and continued to calculate for a long time. A whole stick of incense had passed and he finally calculated the correct answer. It was really two thousand four!
He held the paper in his hand and was stunned for several seconds, then turned his head and cast a shocked look at Yuan Dai.
It looked as if Yuan Dai had solved some unsolved mystery in the world.
His voice trembled, "How did the empress be able to calculate such complex numbers in such a short period of time?!"
Yuan Dai:..........
Any other tricks? Just the multiplication formula...
But then I thought about it, this is an imaginary era after all, and it is not certain to what stage the arithmetic level has developed, but from what Taixian said, Yuan Dai can probably guess that her level should be quite high.
I didn’t expect that with her level, she could be a master of mathematics in ancient times.
It's also quite strange.
Yuan Dai didn't hide it, "How can I have any ability? I just know the multiplication formula."
As she spoke, Yuan Dai made a table of multiplication formulas for the county magistrate, and then explained to him one by one how to calculate.
"Anyway, that's it. Memorizing this form will make it much easier to solve many arithmetic problems."
With almost trembling hands, the county magistrate took this somewhat sacred formula form from Yuan Dai's hand.
He returned to his room and studied all night, only to find that every step on the table was correct. He was so excited that he didn't know what kind of genius he was, who could study such a wonderful thing!
With this watch, the capabilities of their Eastern European countries in all aspects may be improved to a higher level!
The county magistrate did not dare to be negligent. After obtaining Yuan Dai's consent, he rushed 800 miles to deliver the item to the capital.
When he sent it back, he also made it clear that this thing was given by the Empress. Firstly, the county magistrate himself is honest, and secondly, he is not a fool. Who can take advantage of the Empress’s contribution? That’s it, maybe.
He can also enjoy the glory of the Queen and enjoy some benefits.
Let's not say that some people are as wise as they are foolish.
The county magistrate was indeed right. The "Nine-Nine Multiplication Table" was soon in Xiao Ling's hands.
Xiao Ling looked at the form in his hand and was quite shocked.
Then he thought about these days, listening to the news from his subordinates, listening to Yuan Dai's plans one after another. Whenever he felt that the previous plan was exciting enough, there would always be the next one that would surprise him again.
Yuan Dai is like a huge treasure. You keep digging down, and every time you think the treasure is about to be dug out, something new will appear.
Xiao Ling even felt that even if Yuan Dai were to be the monarch of this Eastern European country, she would not necessarily do worse than herself.
Only at this moment did he truly realize why Yuan Dai had been eager to leave the palace. Keeping Yuan Dai in the palace would only inhibit her development. She was courageous and strategic, and she was never in trouble.
Canary in a birdcage.
However, what made Xiao Ling feel disappointed was that after being away for so long, Yuan Dai still never mentioned him.
He thought for a moment and then called his subordinates.
"What is the current situation between Huizhou and Yuguo?"
The subordinate replied respectfully: "The two parties are at war, but the situation is not uncontrollable."
Xiao Ling nodded, pondered for a moment, and said: "Get ready, I will go there in person in a while."
The subordinate was stunned for a few seconds, his eyes filled with disbelief.
To be honest, the conflict between Huizhou and Jade State is not a big deal, and there is no need for the emperor to personally send troops.
The emperor wanted to go there in person. After thinking about the man far away in Huizhou, I am afraid it was the only reason.
But the sigh was a sigh, and the subordinates did not dare to express it at all. They only nodded respectfully and said: "I obey my orders."
Yuan Dai and others also struck while the iron was hot and began to educate the common people about crop rotation methods.
Yuan Dai explained to everyone while dividing the land on the ground, "This is how our planting will be more efficient and the land can be utilized to the maximum extent."
As she spoke, she wielded a hoe and planted the soil herself.
After Yuan Dai worked for a while, someone brought her tea and water.
"Sir, please take a rest."
"Let us roughnecks do this."
Yuan Dai did not reveal her true identity, so she only asked everyone to call her sir.
After a few days, Yuan Dai's reputation among the people has reached its peak. Everyone sincerely thanked Yuan Dai and truly felt that she was different from those before her.
The officials sent by the imperial court were all arrogant and did not even treat them as human beings. The people even took out their own things and gave them to each other to show their respect.
The thing is given, but what happens next? The other party fiddles with it for a few times, then pats his butt and leaves, and the mess suddenly becomes even worse.
To be honest, everyone has been grudges for a long time, so they rebelled.
But the person in front of her is obviously different. She treats others with respect and courtesy, and is a modest gentleman. She doesn't have the slightest dislike towards them, but treats them with an equal attitude, which is so good that it makes people feel flattered.
Even if someone was dissatisfied, this person would patiently advise and convince people with reason, never using brute force.
