Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook

Chapter 152 Sweet Potatoes Are Ripe

Xiao He and the others came back within a few days. The situation in the two places was true. Zhao Qingrui also sent people out. Those people from the doctor's family had already passed away. She also gave an order to the local county guard to let them assist the doctor's family. of those people.

Ding Qin Jian and Lu Lu Jian took it back, Zhao Qingrui touched it lovingly.

These two swords are one of Dad's favorite sabers, and she didn't expect Dad to give these two swords to her.

At the beginning, Ying Zheng gave her the two swords because he saw that his daughter had no sense of security.

Especially the Lulu sword, which was the saber of the Qin kings of all dynasties, has far-reaching significance and symbolizes royal power.

Zhao Qingrui arranged for people to go to the two places for construction. Ying Zheng soon learned from her that she was also for the head of Guizhou. .

Things were arranged in an orderly manner, and Zhao Qingrui wanted to start infrastructure construction in other places in Daqin, but the treasury couldn't support it, unless she paid for it herself and paid for it herself.

She is going to make something like a state-owned enterprise, not make it her own. She can provide technology, but she doesn't have to take care of everything.

Money, money, it's really troublesome without money.

Zhao Qingrui's worries, Ying Zheng also have the same troubles. With one month's salary down, the national treasury has decreased a lot, and the army has so many mouths waiting to be raised, and the confiscated things, before I still feel that it is quite a lot. Looking at it now, it is not enough to consume for a year.

"Father, the sweet potatoes here should be ripe soon." Sitting in the palace, Zhao Qingrui suddenly remembered the sweet potatoes here. There are many ways to eat sweet potatoes, and they will try to promote them in the whole of Daqin next year.

"It should be, Zhao Gao, you ask the farmer to dig a little bit up and have a look." Ying Zheng paused, busy training with Wang Ben every day, and almost forgot to pay attention to the food.

"Wait, let's go and see for ourselves." Zhao Qingrui stopped it directly.

When she was at the Jingshui Pavilion in previous years, she would go to see it in person whenever it was harvested.

There are hundreds of thousands of acres of sweet potatoes planted in Shanglinyuan, and the yield of sweet potatoes is astonishing. Zhao Qingrui wants to see how the yield of sweet potatoes grown here is.

"It's okay." Looking at the weather outside, the sun was blocked by clouds, and there was a breeze blowing from time to time.

If the sun was high, he would definitely not let his daughter go out to bask in the sun.

Zhang Liang followed behind Zhao Qingrui. He also knew about these food matters, and to be honest, he was quite interested.

When I came to the side where the sweet potatoes were planted, the people from the farm family were already waiting here.

"Your Highness, according to my observation, this sweet potato should be almost ripe." Xu Changming said seriously, the sweet potato vines are very old and can't be eaten, and now they are harvested to feed horses and cows.

"Well, dig up a few plants and be careful. The yield of these sweet potatoes is good, and they are relatively large." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile.

These people in the farm managed the sweet potatoes very well, and the potato vines grew one crop after another. Anyway, they fed the war horses and cattle here.

"No." Several people said quickly, holding hoes, carefully planing the potato vines.

To be honest, they have long wanted to dig it open and have a look. They have been raising it for several months, and they are just waiting to see the harvest.

Even if the harvest is similar to that of corn and wheat, he still thinks it is worth it. When the potato vines are young, people eat them, and when they are old, they can be fed to horses and cows. They are all treasures.

If it is promoted, this sweet potato must be very popular.

The farmer carefully planed with a hoe, feeling more nervous than ever.

These farming tools were all made by the Mohists, and only then did the iron smelting come out. It's not very suitable for making weapons. It's not too late to forge them after they are proficient. Now let's practice with the farming tools.

With the existence of natural craftsmanship, Daqin's farm tools have gradually become more abundant.

The soil was pushed aside, and the sweet potatoes that had grown were soon exposed in front of everyone. A potato vine as thick as a thumb had grown a large bunch of sweet potatoes underneath.

Xu Changming carefully removed the soil, and the first plant produced five sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes were very big and heavy, so he quickly asked Qin Quan to bring them a scale.

More than six catties, hey, everyone was shocked when one of them weighed so much.

Ying Zheng stared at Qin Quan steadfastly, breathing heavily.

Zhao Qingrui calculated silently, it looks like more than a catty, the seeds given by the system are awesome.

"I don't know if the sweet potatoes can continue to grow?" Ying Zheng stared at the sweet potatoes with fiery eyes.

"Probably not anymore, just start digging, taking advantage of the good weather now." Zhao Qingrui shook his head. The sweet potatoes given by the system have a shorter growth cycle, are resistant to cold and drought, can grow anywhere, and the yield is quite good.

"Okay, hurry up and get someone to dig the sweet potatoes, and be careful." Ying Zheng quickly ordered.

"Wait, what's the rush, father? I'll dig tomorrow, and I'll send the order later. Xianyang needs officials to go to court. Come and watch tomorrow. The harvest of sweet potatoes, let everyone see the production of sweet potatoes." Zhao Qingrui said with a smile .

"It's still Qingrui's thoughtfulness, not bad." Ying Zheng instantly understood her daughter's intentions.

Zhang Liang followed Zhao Qingrui, watching the sweet potatoes being dug out, the yield of the sweet potatoes shocked his pupils.

The sweet potatoes were dug out right in front of his eyes. He has been to Shanglinyuan several times. He also knows these sweet potatoes. This data really cannot be faked.

It was precisely because he knew that he was shocked in his heart.

If this sweet potato is promoted, Daqin's prestige will increase again, and it is even far away to restore the country and overthrow Tyranny.

Zhang Liang's hands and feet were cold, and his eyes fell on Zhao Qingrui. It was her who brought out these grains.

"Mr. Zifang is very excited?" Zhang Liang's gaze was so hot that Zhao Qingrui couldn't help noticing it. Seeing the shock and decadence in his eyes, the corners of his lips rose.

"Yes, I didn't expect His Highness to have such a high-yielding grain seed. It's really a blessing." Zhang Liang came back to his senses in an instant. Now his wife and children are still in Zhao Qingrui's hands. He said that the restoration of the country is still far away. Now that even the members of Xiang's family have been cleaned up, it's better for him to be honest.

Moreover, after this encounter, the prestige of the father and daughter in the entire Great Qin will be even higher, and the difficulty of restoring the country has increased countless times.

He knew very well that those heads of Guizhou didn't care who was the ruler of the world and who led them to live a good life, as long as they could have enough to eat, they would be grateful.

"Indeed, it's all thanks to my little sister." Young Master Gao said with a smile, the yield of these sweet potatoes is really astonishing, he is already very satisfied after drinking some soup.

　"Quan" is what is called "weight" today. On a scaled equal-arm balance bar, the weight is measured using the principle of leverage.

　　According to the actual measurement and conversion of the measured value indicated by Qin Quanshang's self-ming, a catty of Qin should be 250 grams.
