Chapter 385 Potato Harvest
Chapter 385 Potato Harvest
Prince Qi and the princess carefully took Sui Sui's words into account.
Those with sprouts cannot be eaten.
This must be a hint from God to the child, remember it!
After Sui Sui finished muttering to himself, he told Manager Liu and the others that it would be best to pick it up with your hands, so as to minimize the loss.
Because there are not too many plants planted, you can still dig them up like this.
Besides, it’s not like they haven’t come across things that are more valuable than this.
So, just let the permanent and temporary workers come and do the work.
Manager Liu quickly organized people to come and start peeling potatoes.
At the beginning, Prince Qi was still holding Sui Sui in his arms, laughing, and from time to time he would study how to eat the round potatoes he had dug out.
Prince Qi didn't know what this thing was called either.
I just felt dejected, but it was quite interesting to watch.
Suisui remembered what the system told her: this thing is called potato.
She told her father without hiding anything.
After hearing this, King Qi looked at the potato carefully, thought about it, and then slapped his thigh and said, "Whoever came up with this name is also a talent. This color and this shape look like potatoes. It's a bean like soil. What a good name, let's call it potato!"
Sui Sui doesn’t know what’s good about the name.
Just call it this name anyway.
When her father said it was a good idea, she clapped her hands and said: Good!
It's quite interesting to see the father and daughter together.
Princess Qi watched and laughed.
But soon, her smile turned into hesitation.
Because, the potatoes have been dug up half, but...
It's already more than one stone!
You know, when these potato seedlings were transplanted, they only occupied about three acres of land!
We harvested more than one stone of potatoes from three acres of land!
Princess Qi tightened her grip on the handkerchief and asked Aunt Qiu uncertainly, "How much?"
Prince Qi also couldn't laugh, and nervously gestured to Sui Si: "How much was it? Can you tell me again?"
Aunt Qiu and Sui Si quickly responded, "One and a half stones, master."
King Qi:?
princess:??
How many?
How many potatoes were harvested from one and a half acres of land?
One and a half stone???
How much can you harvest from one acre of land?
Moreover, if this thing is really edible, then...
Even if Prince Qi no longer cared about government affairs and people's livelihood, he still knew a little about this kind of thing.
The yield of ordinary grain is just over one stone per mu.
If a good farmer gets good seeds and comes across good land, maybe he can grow two stones of crops?
For example, most of the fields in their palace produce more than one stone per mu.
However, at this time, they harvested one and a half stone of potatoes from one and a half acres of land!
Never mind this stuff, how full you feel at the end.
It collects a lot!
Prince Qi was so excited that he almost jumped up.
He turned around several times, making Sui Sui feel dizzy: "Father, Father, I feel dizzy, a little dizzy."
The little girl was held by King Qi and also turned around several times.
The speed was a bit too fast, and Sui Sui quickly grabbed his father's collar to steady himself.
Prince Qi finally reacted, cried out, and gently protected Sui Sui. Then he put the child down, turned around and said to the princess, "No, I have to find someone to take a look. My heart is beating so fast."
Prince Qi certainly couldn't keep such a thing secret.
Let’s not talk about whether this thing can be planted next year. That is something Shanglinyuan needs to study, and he doesn’t care.
But good news must be shared in time so that people can know!
Prince Qi hesitated for a while between going to the palace to share and going to the Ministry of Works or the Ministry of Agriculture to find someone. Princess Qi was actually quite excited, but also worried.
But on second thought, this child is now a member of their royal family. Even if he is carrying a rare treasure, others would have to think twice before coveting him and decide whether they can afford to touch him!
Thinking of this, Princess Qi felt relieved. She raised her hand and gently patted Prince Qi on the back: "Collect it first. After you have collected it, decide whether to go to the palace to report to His Majesty. It's not finished yet."
Although the harvest from the one and a half acres of land at the back will definitely not be bad.
However, it is hard to say this until everything is collected.
Hearing the princess say this, Prince Qi calmed down temporarily, nodded slightly, and sat back down.
Suisui didn't understand, and at this time he had already started to circle around the dug potatoes with Ren Shuhan and the others.
A few children also took a potato to feed the rabbit.
Prince Qi was watching from the side and wanted to remind him: Don’t eat rabbits.
In the end, Princess Qi held him down: "Let the children play by themselves. If you don't feed them, they will never give up."
When Prince Qi heard this, he also agreed.
Moreover, with Feng Xuancang and others protecting him, King Qi was no longer worried.
He is actually unable to sit still right now, as his mind is on the potato harvest.
So, he quickly looked away and stared at the farmhands digging out the potatoes.
Potatoes were dug out one by one, although some of them did not look particularly good.
However, the land on the Qi Wang Mansion side has good fertility, and it has been supplemented with fertilizer twice, so the potatoes have grown well.
Occasionally there are some diseases and pests, but they don’t really affect the taste.
Because it is dug out manually, the loss is very small and there is almost no damage.
One after another, they came out and soon the entire piece was piled up into a small potato pile.
There are piles and piles of them, and there are farmhands counting them.
Prince Qi would ask from time to time: "How much is it?"
"Is that enough for two stones?"
"How much land is left?"
"Will there be three stones?"
……
After asking and getting a positive answer, King Qi's voice trembled.
This is this...
He really can't sit still any longer, brother, please save me!
Princess Qi was actually quite excited as well. She would get up from time to time to check on the situation and the piles of potatoes.
There are so many. Really so many!
There were more than two stone of potatoes, but she always had a feeling that she could harvest three stone.
If one mu of land yields three shi, how much can one yield from one mu of land?
Ten stones?
Princess Qi couldn't believe it, how could this thing hold so many?
She couldn't control her eyes and mood. When she turned around, she saw Sui Sui feeding the pigs. She couldn't help but walk over and gently picked Sui Sui up.
Suisui was happy watching the pigs eat potatoes.
She was not angry when being hugged by her mother. She turned her head and looked at her mother in confusion: "Mother."
Princess Qi gently rubbed Sui Sui's face with her head and said, "Good boy."
This is truly a child with endless luck!
Princess Qi thought that she had to protect the child better.
If such a child really entered the now declining Jinyangzi Mansion, she simply couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.
That mansion is full of rotten people...
Thinking of this, Princess Qi's eyes flickered, and for the first time she felt a strong desire to kill.
If everyone dies, no one will come to harm her, right?
Not wanting to scare the child, Princess Qi quickly collected her thoughts and asked Sui Sui with a smile: "Sui Sui, how do you eat potatoes? Do you eat them directly like this?"
