Traveling through the Three Kingdoms: She brings unlimited supplies to build infrastructure

Chapter 253 High Yield
Under the gentle light, there are mountains in the distance.

The breeze blows slowly, and all the village elders are smiling and standing on the edge of the field, leaning on crutches.

Treat this as part of the fun during the party.

Gongsun Jing squinted his eyes, thinking that this should be the high-yielding crop his granddaughter mentioned.

He estimated in his mind that if such an acre could produce three hundred kilograms of food that could be eaten, he wouldn't need to waste time.

But if it is less than three hundred pounds, what kind of rhetoric should he use to help his granddaughter persuade these village elders to promote planting.

He was smiling and his mind was spinning.

It's not convenient for Tian Kai to have one arm, and he has become much more handsome recently. When he squats down, his belly is so heavy that he can't breathe.

He simply tucked the corners of his robe around his waist and knelt down to dig up the soil.

"Jinggong, that kid said this thing can prevent people from starving to death. It must be very productive, right?" Gao Huai asked with a smile, stroking his beard.

The Lian family's lesson came first. In Gao Huai's mind, the Gongsun family was really good at putting on a show, but he didn't know what the show was at this time.

He looked at Gongsun Jing with a look that could see through everything.

Gongsun Jing himself didn't know what was going on before him, so he said with a confident smile on his face: "Gao Gong, we'll see."

"Okay, okay." Gao Huai nodded repeatedly, stroking the beard on his chin, and asked him to wait and see.

The other village elders did not have such a complicated mental journey as they did, and they all laughed and cheered.

Soon, following Tian Kai's movements, a sweet potato vine was pulled up first: "The tender hearts of these vines are peeled off and fried with an iron pan. The rest are sent to the pig farm."

Tian Kai said while working: "The white pigs in Guzhu Village have a good appetite and are willing to gain weight. They are very fat and moist."

After saying this, he smacked his lips and his jaw trembled twice.

Gongsun Jing looked a little funny when he saw his mouth full of food, and was about to make a joke.

With a crashing sound, a piece of soil was turned up by Tiankai, and the roots were connected, bringing out a long string of lumpy crops.

Gongsun Jing was shocked.

He made a preliminary estimate and his heart tightened suddenly.

Gao Huai slowly put down his hand, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

That thing called sweet potato, there are about five or six on a bunch. In this way, an acre of land...

Gao Huai was about to ask Gongsun Jing for advice when he heard Tian Kai say in frustration: "The vine has broken again."

He was wondering, what broke it?

"Haha, Mr. Tian, ​​look at me." Zhao Xi said at the side.

Gao Huai turned his head in confusion and saw a long string of sweet potatoes placed in front of Zhao Xi, a densely packed nest of about ten sweet potatoes, covered with soil, which looked amazing.

This area is Gongsun Yan's experimental field.

An old farmer was specially hired to take care of this piece of land, and fertilizers were supplied in sufficient quantities.

The sweet potatoes, which were originally a special variety for the system, had an extremely frightening yield in this field.

The long string of sweet potatoes made Gao Huai cover his heart fiercely.

"Jinggong!"

The tone of Gao Huai's voice changed. He turned around to ask Gongsun Jing, but felt his arm heavy.

Gongsun Jing fell towards him with an expressionless face and eyes closed.

"Jinggong!" Gao Huai hurriedly held him up, thinking, didn't he just let him wait and see?

Why did he fall first?

There was a commotion around him, and several villagers fell down on the left and right.

The doctor next to him hurried forward and quickly pressed a few Suxiao Jiuxin Pills under the tongues of these people.

Apply acupuncture to the chest and act quickly.

Entourages from all the families rushed up, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

After a moment, Gongsun Jing, who was lying on the ground, let out a long breath. The first thing he said when he opened his eyes was: "dig! Dig them all for me."

With his mouth full of the refreshing medicinal taste of the Quick-acting Jiuxin Pills, he got up from the ground with agility completely befitting his age, and directed all his followers to go down to help.

An anxious village elder had already run over and grabbed Gongsun Jing's robe sleeve tightly: "Jinggong, what is this? What is this?" Gongsun Jing was not in the mood to answer now, he put his feet on his feet and looked eagerly into the fields.

Tian Kai was frightened by their fainting and hurriedly came forward to support him.

"Tian Gong, go find the scale quickly! Hurry." Gongsun Jing urged.

"Okay, okay, don't worry!" Tian Kai supported him with his soft and fat body, and put his left hand on his chest to help him breathe, "I'll look for him right away, don't worry."

Tian Kai is really scared now. It would be such an injustice if one or two of these old men died here.

Zhao Xi organized medical doctors to call for help at the scene. Hearing this, he called an entourage and asked him to go to a nearby farmer's house and ask the regional steward to lend his name.

Gao Huai had already called his agile followers to get a sweet potato, wiped the mud on his silk robe and put it in his mouth to bite.

It took a long time with his old teeth to take a bite, and when he chewed it carefully, he said with great joy: "It's sweet, crispy, and you can eat it!"

Under his leadership, a group of respectable village elders held the muddy sweet potatoes and began to bite them.

It's okay that the teeth are still intact, but two of them are missing. The sweet potato was covered with saliva and only the skin was broken, so I could taste some flavor.

Gongsun Jing also took one and bit it anxiously.

Instead of biting it down, the left incisor, which had been well protected, was embedded in the sweet potato.

But as if he didn't feel the pain, he murmured to himself: "High yield, high yield."

How can this be described as productive?
Gongsun Jing suspected that his granddaughter had bad intentions.

Otherwise, we can’t even prepare the healers in advance!
Xin Dao, that dead child, do you think his being alive is a hindrance?
Gongsun Jing wiped a handful of blood foam from the corners of his lips.

Not a single entourage of the village elders was left behind, and they were all driven off to dig sweet potatoes.

Zhao Xi proposed to go to the village to find a shovel, but was jointly rejected.

So the attendants knelt on the ground one after another, using the same careful techniques as later generations of archaeologists, holding out the sweet potatoes one by one, and blowing away the soil on them.

Even a small beard is reluctant to be removed.

Tian Kai helped Gongsun Jing sit on the big rock beside the field.

As early as the autumn harvest, he experienced such a scene, so he ordered people to collect some dead leaves and firewood.

Gongsun Jing licked his empty front teeth and gums, his hands trembling in his sleeves.

Can this land produce one thousand catties?
No, no, you can’t expect too much, what about eight hundred pounds?

But even if it’s eight hundred pounds.

When he thought that this thing came from the Gongsun family and was in the hands of the Gongsun family, Gongsun Jing wanted to look up to the sky and laugh.

Soon, I borrowed it back.

After hearing the news, the steward of this area also came over.

The large scales used to weigh the grains were difficult to transport, so I only brought small scales and weighed them in batches and added them together to calculate the total.

So many people were crowded into one acre of land, and soon there was a pile of hills on the edge of the field.

The steward hurriedly took people to weigh it.

Gao Huai threw away his crutch and stood there watching, counting the numbers.

"Jinggong, there are four stones now."

Such a three-stone harvest would be considered a good harvest elsewhere.

And here, the sweet potato hill has just been weighed to a small tip, and there are still all the followers of the village elders digging hard in the field.

Gongsun Jing took a breath and looked up at the distant sky. A line of clear tears fell down his cheek: "Okay! Okay!"

--------

Let me add here that the units of measurement in the Han Dynasty were confusing.

One stone of Han Dynasty is approximately equal to 120 kilograms of Han Dynasty
Han liangjin = modern jin

Therefore, the data in the article are all directly converted data. One stone = 60 pounds in modern times.

The author of the original main website said that these settings were explained in it, but the channels have not been synchronized, so I will add a few words.
