The sudden change directly made everyone on the scene dumbfounded.
Cheng Yanjin, who is also an old partner with Niu Jinda, hurriedly ran to him, dragged the other party up from the ground, and asked:
"How's it going, old cow, are you hurt? Is there anything wrong with it? ”
It's no wonder that Cheng Biting Jin is so nervous, just kidding, someone once did a slap on the head of a sturdy bison.
What's more, just now, Niu Jinda was directly beaten out several feet away, Cheng Yanjin didn't think that his old brother could be stronger than a bison weighing thousands of catties, so it was strange not to worry.
"It's okay, it's okay, it's just a fart squat, there's nothing uncomfortable." Niu Jinda, who was woken up, subconsciously moved his body, and then said.
"Old Niu, it's not that you don't know the importance of Yun Boy to that person, why do you ......" Seeing that his old brother was indeed fine, Cheng Biting Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but count the falls.
"Lao Cheng, I'm ......" looked at the potato field, and Niu Jinda, who had completely come to his senses, said with a wry smile on his face.
"Okay, okay, I have to have some friendship with that person on weekdays, otherwise I really don't know how to end." Cheng Biting Jin, who knew why the other party was crazy, patted the old brother on the shoulder and said.
Fortunately, at this time, Yun Ye, who was one of the parties involved, also came over.
"Uncle Niu, my senior brother was offended in a hurry just now, please forgive me." Yun Ye who walked to the front. It was a very formal salute.
"No, no, no, it's a gaffe at some point, no wonder Senior Brother Ling." Niu Jinda, who hurriedly returned the salute, said.
"Don't be polite here, it's all your own family, don't take the slightest misunderstanding to heart." Seeing that the development of things did not deteriorate any further, Cheng Yanjin, who was finally relieved, hurriedly said:
"For now, let's get the potato matter done first, I believe Your Majesty is already in a hurry."
Soon the three of them returned to the edge of the potato field, and Li Anran had to coldly bow and apologize for the palm just now under the signal of his junior brother's eyes.
On the contrary, it was Niu Jinda, and he bowed very formally. Apologize for your gaffe.
Under Li Chengqian's peace. The atmosphere at the edge of the potato field soon returned to normal.
However, the first thing Li Anran said made everyone, including Yun Ye, a little stunned: "No, it doesn't make sense, it's just so much." ”
There's no way not to be stunned, fifty stones. It is calculated according to one stone and one hundred and twenty catties. Fifty stone is six thousand catties.
Normally. Not to mention 6,000 catties, even 600 catties is five stones, which can only be grown by the best paddy fields and the best tenants.
Okay. Six thousand catties is only such a little, so how much is more?
This question was quickly answered by Li Anran.
As the hoe delicately removed the soil that had plucked out the potato seedlings, soon large and small potatoes appeared in everyone's sight.
As in the previous plucking of potato seedlings, the smallest of these potatoes was the size of an adult's fist.
Faced with such a situation, Li Chengqian and the others had nothing to say, so they rushed into the potato field and got busy again.
This time, however, no one used any tools, but they did not feel dirty at all.
It didn't take long for a small mountain of potatoes to be built on the edge of the potato field.
After Yun Ye finished weighing these potatoes and then converted them into mu yields, the whole person stayed on the spot.
There is no way, who made the yield of this potato so high that it was unexpectedly high.
Originally, I thought that it would be very good to have fifty stones, but I didn't think that after counting those in the field, the final yield per mu was as high as more than one hundred stones.
This also means that the yield of potatoes per mu is almost 12,000 catties.
This is because the place where Zuo Wuwei's camp is currently stationed is not the best in terms of soil, climate and environment.
If this thing can be planted in the most suitable place, according to Yun Ye's speculation, not to mention 20,000 catties, 15,000 catties is still no problem.
When Li Chengqian and the others repeatedly confirmed that this number was not wrong, and even weighed the potatoes several times by hand, everyone became a little crazy because of excitement.
There is no way not to be crazy, what is the concept of 12,000 catties of mu yield, plus planting potatoes will not encroach on fertile land, which means that the rations of the people of Datang are invisibly many times more.
Taking advantage of the excitement of these ancients there, Yun Ye stepped forward and whispered, "Senior brother, this yield is too outrageous. ”
"Cut, what's so outrageous, don't forget that the changes in you and me are outrageous." Li Anran, who glanced at the other party, replied.
"Uh...... That's right. Yun Ye, who was stunned for a moment, then said: "Doesn't that mean that the yield of chili peppers and corn in my hands will also become higher?" ”
"That's probably the case, but let's not take out these two things for the time being."
"Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and I will talk about it after the potato matter is over." Li Anran, who nodded, said.
"That's the only way, but when we return to the manor in Chang'an, we can try to plant a small amount first, and there aren't many seeds anyway."
"As long as you do a good job of confidentiality, I believe there should be no trouble." Yun Ye, who was reluctant to eat spicy food for a while, swallowed his saliva a little unwillingly.
"That's fine, but, junior brother, don't you think we should be thinking about how to eat these potatoes at noon?" Li Anran, who understood the other party's thoughts very well, said with a smile.
Only then did Yun Ye, who suddenly realized that he was a little reluctant to give up his roots, and hurriedly broke his fingers and began to order food:
"Then I don't need to think about it, I want potato stew, hot and sour shredded potatoes, a large plate of chicken, by the way, mashed potatoes, potato chips, and french fries."
knew that the other party, who also had foodie attributes, would be like this, Li Anran rolled his eyes and said:
"Okay, okay, don't count anymore, I'll hold a potato banquet for my brother at noon today, so that you can eat enough at one time."
After the two agreed on how to eat potatoes at noon, Li Chengqian and his side finally recovered from the shock of 12,000 catties per mu.
Originally, Li Anran wanted to let Cheng Chumo and Zhang Cheng transport the pile of potatoes back to his camp, but who would have thought that this mention would be vetoed.
Not only did Li Chengqian say that he would personally escort these potatoes, but no one else was allowed to touch these auspicious potatoes.
As for Cheng Chumo and Zhang Cheng, they were sent out as soon as possible.
Then Li Anran found that the atmosphere in the entire Zuo Wuwei camp instantly became tense.
A large number of men and horses surrounded this farmland and their own camp, and there was no mercy for anyone who dared to trespass.
Thanks to Yun Ye, after discovering that the situation was not quite right, he hurriedly stood up and said that the high yield of potatoes had been verified, but how to eat this thing still needs to be experienced by the big guys.
In the face of such a statement, although Li Chengqian and Cheng Yanjin were very reluctant not to eat these potatoes that could make the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty more prosperous, they also had to admit that it was really necessary to do so.
According to Yun Ye, this potato is also a new food, and the necessary edible test is an indispensable part.
If there are no adverse reactions, it is not too late to plant a large area, otherwise it will be devastating to human life.
In case of poisoning, diarrhea and other adverse consequences after eating, it is better to detect it early than to find it late.
So after some fierce bargaining, Yun Ye finally got ten catties of potatoes from Li Chengqian's hands.
Don't look at ten catties of potatoes sounds like a lot, in fact, there are only about a dozen small ones, and there are only three or five large ones.
Seeing that he only got such a few potatoes in the end, Yun Ye knew that the potato banquet at noon was a thought.
In addition, Li Chengqian and they are not stupid, and they all said that they also want to participate in this kind of tasting.
So Yun Ye could only retreat and order two dishes plus a staple food.
After everyone returned to Li Anran's camp together, those potatoes were directly guarded by Zuo Wuwei's elite.
Originally, Yun Ye also wanted to remind some people that no one knew how to plant this potato except for his own brothers and sisters.
No matter how tightly these potatoes are cared for, they don't have to be handed back into the hands of the two in the end.
But seeing that everyone looked like they were encountering a great enemy, they simply swallowed back the words when they came to their mouths, and turned to the open-air kitchen to help. (To be continued......)
