The Three Kingdoms: Steamed Buns and Pickled Cabbage, I Became the Emperor

Chapter 77 Super rice yield per mu shocked everyone

"Hahaha!"

Ye Chen laughed out loud.

"Tai Shi Ziyi, you are unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness. With your help, great things can be expected!"

Ye Chen took a quick step forward and dragged up Taishi Ci, who was kneeling on the ground.

"Congratulations, my lord, for having a good general to help you!"

Cheng Yu and others on the side were also very considerate and started to congratulate.

Ye Chen patted Taishi Ci on the shoulder and nodded with satisfaction.

Now, it is time to use military force against Zhang Chao.

Subduing Taishi Ci at this time meant that his military strength was greatly enhanced.

In history, Taishi Ci was not only a martial artist.

More importantly, his loyalty.

Getting Taishi Ci means that Ye Chen has another general whom he can trust with his life.

------

Time flies like water.

In the blink of an eye.

A few months passed.

In the middle of October in the first year of Chuping, Jiangdu County.

"My Lord, as you instructed, the rice has been planted."

"I guess we can harvest it in two days!"

At this moment, Cheng Yu was reporting to Ye Chen in the county government office on the recent reclamation progress.

Since more than 50,000 disaster victims arrived in Jiangdu County.

It took months of effort and countless money.

Finally, these people were managed to settle down.

And the disaster victims reclaimed wasteland.

Now I can see the clues.

It looks like the harvest time is coming soon.

"it is good!"

"Once this batch of rice is harvested, it will be time for us to take action against Zhang Chao."

After this period of rest and recuperation.

Ye Chen also felt that the time had come to take over Guangling County.

"Zilong, how's the progress over there?"

Ye Chen turned his gaze to Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun quickly reported.

"My lord, there are now 25,000 soldiers in the army."

"Among them, there are 2000 heavily armored Iron Pagodas, 1000 heavily armored Mo Dao soldiers, light cavalry, and the remaining are all armored infantry!"

In just a few months.

From the soldiers who surrendered before, the people of Jiangdu County, and the victims of the disaster.

A lot of new people were recruited into the army.

Jiangdu County, with its small area, was able to support a total of 25,000 soldiers.

The scale is comparable to the military force of a county.

And the reason why all this can be done.

All this is thanks to Ye Chen’s terrifying logistical support capabilities.

Three hundred thousand servings of corn porridge, white flour buns, and pickled mustard tubers every day.

It feeds too many people.

And all the meat was supplied to the army.

To tell the truth.

If you don't take over larger territories, gather more people, and gain more reputation points.

If this continues.

Even though Ye Chen had the system, he still felt a little tired.

after all.

Today, Jiangdu County has a population of less than 500,000.

If Ye Chen doesn't take over Guangling County, he will be so poor that he can only live on his own.

"After the autumn harvest, we will immediately send troops to Guangling!"

After listening to the report, Ye Chen made the final decision.

Zhang Chao has been jumping around for so long.

If I hadn't avenged the last ambush.

This is not Ye Chen's character.

"My Lord, can those newly reclaimed wastelands really provide food and fodder?"

Cheng Yu knew that he would send troops soon.

He asked Ye Chen with some concern.

This time, 30,000 acres of wasteland were reclaimed.

But he really had no idea how much grain could be produced in the end.

According to normal experience, one acre of land can produce a maximum of 200 kilograms of grain.

That is about ten stones.

Thirty thousand acres of wasteland, even if the harvest is good.

At most, it would be no more than 300,000 shi of grain.

This amount of food can supply the army for three months at most.

This is just a purely theoretical calculation.

If there is any accident, it will be a disaster.

"Ha ha!"

"It's okay, Zhongde, you don't have to worry about this matter!"

Ye Chen smiled confidently.

after all.

The 30,000 acres of wasteland are planted with super rice that has undergone systemic transformation.

How can it be calculated according to the per mu yield of the Han Dynasty?

Wait two days.

When you take a look after the harvest, your three views will be absolutely shocked.

------

Two days later. Outside Jiangdu County.

"My Lord, you are not talking nonsense?"

"Can the yield from this acre of land really reach 2,000 kilograms?"

"This is too outrageous!"

Cheng Yu, who is always calm.

When he heard Ye Chen's words, his jaw almost dropped.

This is my lord.

If anyone else said this, Cheng Yu would definitely take off his shoes and slap the other person in the face with the soles of his shoes.

joke.

Since the beginning of historical records.

I have never heard of any crop that can produce over 1,000 kilograms per mu?
Could it be that the seeds planted in this land are immortal seeds? ?
"Don't worry, Zhongde!"

"We have known each other for such a long time, and you know my character."

"I won't say anything I'm not sure of!"

"Right, Sister Wen Ji!"

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and joked to Cai Wenji.

Hear the words.

Cai Wenji's rosy cheeks couldn't help but turn slightly red.

It looks like a ripe apple, extremely tempting.

"This……"

See this scene.

The honest man Cheng Yu's mouth twitched.

Then, he looked at Cai Yong calmly.

my lord!
When it comes to courage, you have to be the one.

He actually dared to flirt with someone else's daughter in front of the great scholar Cai Yong of his time.

"Ha ha!"

Ye Chen laughed.

Look at Cai Wenji.

"Since Mr. Zhongde doesn't believe me!"

"Sister Wen Ji, how about we make a bet?"

Here.

Cai Wenji hasn't spoken yet.

Dian Wei said in a muffled voice behind Ye Chen.

"My Lord, I love gambling the most!"

"I'll make this bet with you!"

Ye Chen didn't get angry and glanced at Dian Wei.

What's your business here?

"How far is it? Get as far away as you can!"

Ye Chen laughed and scolded Dian Wei, then turned his gaze to Cheng Yu.

"Zhongde, start harvesting!"

Ye Chen smiled confidently and said to Cheng Yu.

It didn't take a while.

The people in charge of harvesting, crushing and weighing exclaimed in surprise one after another.

"My goodness!"

"This rice really yields over 1,000 kilograms per mu!!"

This acre of land produces 100% of the yield.

Just the initial name.

Experienced farmers rely on their own experience.

Even if an acre of land has not been fully harvested, the approximate yield per acre can be calculated.

"Sir, the yield of this acre, in my opinion, is at least 1,200 kilograms!"

An old farmer walked up to Ye Chen with a happy face and reported.

Upon hearing this.

Cai Yong, Cai Wenji, Cheng Yu and others.

A thunderclap suddenly sounded in my mind.

A tingling sensation rushed from the feet to the top of the head.

? ?
Yield of 1,200 kilograms per mu? ?
At least???
This is rice?

To know.

in their cognition.

A yield of more than 200 kilograms per mu is considered a bumper harvest.

Now it has more than quintupled.

What is this ghost?

In an instant, except Ye Chen.

All three views collapsed in an instant.

"Not bad!"

Ye Chen still had a calm expression on his face. Apart from nodding slightly, he did not show any extra emotion towards the result.

To be honest.

This grain output is still lower than he expected.

Logically speaking.

The yield per mu should be able to reach more than 2,000 kilograms.

However, it is subject to the limitations of Han planting technology.

This yield per mu is considered pretty good.

after all.

We can't compare the planting conditions of the Han Dynasty with those of later generations.

Everyone saw the faint look of disgust on Ye Chen's face.

People are stupid.

"Brother, the yield per mu is more than 1,000 kilograms!"

"What the hell is that disgusted expression on your face?"
