Great Tang's Talented Little Landlord

Chapter 680



Li forgot to worry about getting five pots of potatoes from Qi Zhongxi, a businessman in Pei, and planting one plant in each pot.

At first, the concubine who begged Zhongxi just planted it as a flower.

Fortunately, the flowerpot she used was large enough. After Li forgot to worry about finding the potatoes, he was worried that the roots of the precious potatoes would be damaged by moving the pot, so he didn\'t ask the Si Nong temple to transplant the potatoes from the flowerpot.

After all, there are only five pots of potatoes in the whole Tang Dynasty.

Li forgets to worry and even still doesn\'t understand how the damn potato was brought back from America by the people of yecha country.

If he did not cross the Tang Dynasty, the five pots of potatoes would disappear with the death of the concubine who begged Zhongxi.

Fortunately, God\'s favor made Li forget his worries and inadvertently found these potatoes

Because of Li Er\'s orders, Si Nong temple is very attentive to serving the three pots of potatoes. It is not only placed in sunny places circled by the Shanglin forestry department, but also arranged for special personnel to take care of it.

In front of the three pots of potatoes, Li forgot to worry about it carefully. Sure enough, the leaves of the potatoes have begun to wither slowly, and the roots have turned grayish brown. It\'s time to mature and harvest.

"Ziyou, how do you harvest the potatoes? But you have to dig them up?" Cheng Yaojin shouted.

Li forgot to worry and said with a smile, "Uncle Cheng, don\'t bother so much. These three flowerpots are useless anyway. Just smash them directly and dig the potatoes out of the soil."

He is also afraid to dig potatoes with a shovel. If he accidentally breaks several potatoes, it will hurt.

These potatoes are very expensive now. They should be kept as seeds.

Hearing the speech, Cheng Yaojin directly rolled up his sleeve: "let someone come!"

With that, without waiting for Li Er to talk to them, he directly picked up a pot of potatoes and smashed them down.

His move also frightened Li QIAOYOU. This old hooligan is so rude. With a bang, the flowerpot was smashed to the ground by Cheng Yaojin and directly became fragmented.

Li forgot his worries and was speechless. He had to come forward and dig potatoes.

When the round potatoes were dug out of the soil by Li forgetful worry, Li Er and Fang Xuanling stared.

Li forgot his worries and was ecstatic.

To tell the truth, he was very upset before he saw these potatoes with his own eyes. Although he was sure that these plants must be potatoes, Li forgot to worry a little before digging them out.

In case you are mistaken, or these potatoes can\'t bear fruit, or they don\'t take good care of them and rot their roots... These are also possible. If so, it would be a white joy.

It was not until he dug out these humble, even somewhat ugly potatoes from the soil that Li forgot to worry about.

The potato was finally held in the palm of his hand.

"Ziyou, the round bumps on the roots of this crop are what you call potatoes? This... This is too much!" Li Er couldn\'t help but smack his tongue.

Anyone with a clear eye can see that there are seven or eight potatoes hanging on the root of the potato that Li forgets to worry about. The big one has a fist or so, and the small one is almost the size of an egg. It looks very heavy.

Fang Xuanling didn\'t care about the dirt. He leaned over and took a potato. He looked carefully: "Ziyou, but these round bumps are what you call potatoes? Are they edible?"

"Hey hey, Fang Xiang is right. These are potatoes!" Li forgetful worry was also very happy at this time.

"How to eat?" Fang Xuanling asked again, "but how to thresh or deal with it?"

"Mr. Fang, this potato doesn\'t need to be threshed like grain. It can be eaten directly after roasting or cooking. Of course, it tastes better when used to make dishes," Li said with a smile

"What? Ziyou, don\'t deceive me. These potatoes are so big that they can all be eaten? How is this possible?" not only Fang Xuanling was stunned, but also Li Er and others.

In comparison, the harvest of a plant of rice or wheat is less than that of an egg sized potato. In addition, it also needs to be dried and threshed to become edible food, and the yield is lower.

Li forgot to worry. He actually said that all the round bumps shaved out of the potato in front of him could be eaten, which frightened Li Er and Fang Xuanling.

Du Ruhui suddenly turned to the Minister of the temple and shouted, "go and get it and weigh it. I want to see how much it produces!"

"Yes, yes, get it quickly!" Li Er hurriedly ordered.

Since Li forgets to worry that those round pimples are edible, they are all harvests. Such a heavy bunch of potatoes, how many harvests will there be, people can\'t imagine.

The scale was quickly taken, and the potatoes were carefully placed on the scale plate after being removed from the soil.

"Your Majesty, it\'s two kilograms and six Liang!" the Secretary of the temple started himself and weighed the potatoes.

Li forgets to worry secretly. The output is really not high. But he remembered that when later generations planted potatoes with his grandfather, the yield of a potato plant was five or six kilograms, and even more than ten kilograms.

In comparison, the yield of this potato is only more than two kilograms, which is really not worth mentioning.

However, hearing this, the Secretary of the Si Nong Temple almost pulled out the beard under his jaw by shaking Fang Xuanling\'s fingers.

Regardless of the pain, he grabbed Li forgetful\'s arm and asked, "Ziyou, how many potatoes can be planted per mu?"

Li forgot to worry and looked at Xuanling\'s muddy palm. His clothes were terrible. He thought about it and replied, "there\'s no problem with a thousand plants."

Li Er and they took a breath when they said this.

Simple calculation, we will still calculate. If a potato harvest is two kilograms and six kilograms, even two kilograms.

One thousand plants are two thousand jin... Twenty stone grain

This is twice as much as Li Qieyou said he could produce ten stones of grain per mu!

Li Er fiercely looked at the other two pots of potatoes: "quickly, smash the two pots to me, and be careful to dig out and weigh the potatoes to me!"

Soon, the remaining two pots of potatoes were taken out and harvested in the same heavy pile.

The results of weighing are roughly the same, which are two kilograms three Liang and two kilograms four Liang respectively.

Three potatoes, a total of more than 20 potatoes of different sizes, a total harvest of seven kilograms and three Liang.

Li forgets worry to look at these potatoes, happy eyes are narrowed.

This potato is cut into pieces after germination, and at least three or four more potatoes can be planted. In other words, after the next harvest, these more than 20 potatoes can become four or five hundred... In less than a year, these potatoes can eat as much as they want.

Looking at the potatoes on the floor, Li Er still couldn\'t believe it: "Ziyou, are these things edible? All? This... How is this possible?"

No wonder Li Er was so surprised. It\'s too hard to imagine how spectacular it is to produce 20 stone grain per mu. Li Er couldn\'t help but believe it. Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui looked at these potatoes and couldn\'t believe that these round pimples dug out of the soil could be eaten.

Li forgot to worry and smiled: "uncle, gentlemen, my nephew\'s residence still has two pots of potatoes. Would you please move to Huxian county with my uncle? My nephew harvested the two pots of potatoes together, and then took some to taste fresh with you to see if the potatoes can be eaten and how they taste? What does my uncle think?"

"Good! Just so!" Li Er answered immediately without hesitation.
