357 This is a seed

uncle ye, ” Gu Xin explained, ” we’ve planted a little more than one mu of seeds. We used a total of 284 catties of seeds. He had planted a total of 1975 nests. We’ve dug up 40 nests before, a total of 45 catties. If they were to divide it evenly, each nest would be a little more than one Jin, which meant that they would be able to harvest about two thousand Jin. This is because it wasn’t big when we dug it out. Big sister said it could still grow a little bigger.”

The emperor’s eyes lit up. He was shocked by Gu Xin’s calculation and the yield of the potatoes.

Gu shouxin patted the emperor’s shoulder and asked despite knowing the answer, ” “brother ye, what’s wrong?”

“Brother Gu, is it really as my niece said?” the Emperor asked seriously.

Gu shouxin nodded. yes. When we were digging before, we dug in different places. We didn’t dig next to each other. There’s basically no empty nest. The smallest only has five, and the largest has twelve. It’s a long line!”

The Emperor then turned to look at Gu Nian and asked,’can it really continue to grow? It’s even bigger than the one we had this morning?”

“of course,” gu nian nodded. The seeds that Zhou Yuan brought over are all bigger, about the size of my fist.”

the emperor nodded. after a moment of silence, he asked, ” “Brother Gu, can I dig up a nest?”

Gu Xin held her small hoe and said,’uncle ye, let me do it! People who had never dug this before would hurt the potatoes. if it was injured, it would not be easy to preserve it. old zhou has been saving it for a long time.”

the emperor was surprised again,’saved for a long time? this can be stored?”

Gu Xin,’of course! Brother Yuanyuan said that they got these seeds last year and gave us a bag. Their bag hasn’t rotted yet!”

After she finished speaking, Gu Xin dug out a bunch of things, ” “Ya, there are nine of them in this nest! Father, mother, sister, I still want to dig a few more nests. Let’s make the salt and pepper potatoes that sister said for lunch!”

the emperor quickly stopped her,”my little niece, these are seeds!” Don’t be greedy! we’ll plant it in the spring and eat it this year after we harvest it, okay?”

Gu shouxin patted the emperor’s shoulder and said,”it’s fine, brother ye.” You and I hit it off, so let’s make it for lunch! Last night and this morning, you only had shredded potatoes and boiled water. This afternoon, I’ll ask niannian to make you fried chili Potato slices, and then make a small potato with salt and pepper that we’ve never eaten before.”

The Emperor pursed his lips and thought,”I want to eat it, but it’s a seed.”

Cai Xiaolian smiled and said, ” big brother ye, digging up a few nests won’t be a problem. Ah Yuan said that they plan to plant two crops and then send them to the capital next year to present to the Emperor. He also gave us a lot of seeds, and we’ll start planting them next month. In a few days, we’ll have to open up new land!”

The Emperor: ” sister-in-law, no, that won’t do. What if Zhou Yuan is going to die this year? ”

Gu shouxin put an arm around the emperor’s shoulder. “Brother ye, let’s go. I’ll take you to see the other two potato-like seeds that Zhou Yuan gave you. We’ll just dig a few nests here, the three of them can handle it. ”

The Emperor reluctantly followed Gu shouxin and left, absent-mindedly looking back several times.

When he saw the sack of corn seeds and Sweet Potato Seeds, the emperor’s eyes lit up.

“you mean, these two things have been in your house for a few months?” The Emperor asked in surprise.

“Yup! Since we weren’t sure if it would survive, we randomly chose one. We didn’t expect to succeed. I used these two for experiments again. Big brother ye, I’m only telling you that the production of these two is definitely not low.” Gu shouxin said mysteriously.
