Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 178 Sweet Potatoes Are Sweet?
Chapter 178 Sweet Potatoes Are Sweet?
Qin Yang said speechlessly: "Master Zhang, even if you stay here, you can only watch. Why don't you go to the arbor and wait?"

In order for Zhang Yunji to rest honestly, he directly ordered that the next eight acres of land should be dug out as soon as possible with additional manpower.

Calculate the weight of eight acres of land together!
If Zhang Yunji wanted to wait here to count the catties, he could only wait for the eight acres of land to be dug up.

Qin Yang's words made Zhang Yunji a little helpless.

But who let others be the king!
And to be honest, although his body has completely recovered, his foundation is still a bit poor.

I didn't show my excitement just now, but as soon as I walked back to the awning under the sun and sat down, I felt a little dizzy.

"Drink some herbal tea."

Qin Yang hurriedly poured him a cup of herbal tea and handed it over.

"It's just medicinal tea, drinking it won't hurt you."

Qin Yang also added this sentence.

Of course Zhang Yunji knew that his king was decathlon!
Anything will do!
Medicine is even better!

So when he heard that it was a herbal tea that would not harm his body, he immediately picked it up and drank a few gulps.

After drinking, he lifted the kettle himself, poured a full glass, and drank slowly.

Not to mention, drinking this herbal tea does have a faint bitter taste.

"My lord, is this your prescription?"

Zhang Yunji asked.

Qin Yang himself drank a few sips, put it down, and said, "Yes, I plan to wait until summer to make barrels of herbal tea and sell them on the street."

"Of course, people in supermarkets sell enhanced versions, and I will publish the ordinary recipes. If anyone wants to set up a herbal tea stand, that's fine too."

It's like when he was in a later life, there were herbal tea shops everywhere in a certain area.

The herbal tea in it also contains some medicinal ingredients. Although the taste is not good at first, it is very relieved.

In summer, presumably this herbal tea will be very popular.

But because of the different land boundaries and climates in the north and the south, Qin Yang added some things that are more specific to the climate in the north.

People in the north drink it in summer, not only to relieve the heat, but also to adjust the body.

This is for everyone, and the effect of the medicine is not strong, even if a child drinks it, it doesn't matter.

As the King of Youzhou, Qin Yang really wanted to make more Youzhou specialties appear.

It is still not enough to rely on these few pillars.

Development is too slow!
He hopes Youzhou can develop faster!

After Zhang Yunji drank two cups, although he didn't drink any more, during the waiting process, he felt that his sleepiness was gone!

This is of course due to the good spirits, but also has an inseparable relationship with this herbal tea!
Just thinking about whether to ask the king for a prescription first, so that I can make tea by myself tonight.

Not far away, someone cheered.

He looked up and found that another acre of land had been harvested!
This is already the sixth acre!

In the first two acres, there were not many people, mainly for the purpose of measuring one acre!

But now, the two acres of land already have different weights, and the eight acres of land in the back, the soldiers who came, and the local farmers came to the field together, and the speed was naturally faster!

Seeing that many people also went down to help, Qin Yang said to the guards at the side: "Light some bonfires, cook some sweet potatoes, and share them with everyone present."

These ten acres of land can probably harvest more than 2 catties of sweet potatoes!
This isn't the only testing ground.

There is another piece of land elsewhere, and some of his officials have successively taken some to plant by themselves.

Therefore, with all the calculations, more than [-] catties of sweet potatoes can be collected in the end!
These sweet potatoes weigh an integer of [-] catties, which cannot be moved, and will be divided up later for the common people to plant.

But for those zeros, you can take them out and eat some by yourself.

Thousands of people came to the scene, and there was no way to taste it for everyone.

But for those people who are going to work, he plans to share a small piece of sweet potato with each of them, so that they can taste it first!

And, register them!

When the sweet potato seeds are divided equally, these people get them first!
After telling Zhang Yunji all these, Zhang Yunji also raised his hands in agreement!
"Your Majesty, that's how it should be!"

Zhang Yunji said.

"The officer has no objection!"

Although he felt a little bit sorry for the sweet potatoes, but he had harvested so much, and he felt that it was okay to use a small part to reward these people!
The onlookers then saw that cooking pots had started to be buried in the open space!

They didn't think about anything else, after all, it was almost noon.

Maybe people are hungry?

Some people are also a little hungry, but at first glance, the remaining eight acres of land are almost finished!
A total will be obtained immediately, and they are reluctant to leave at this time!

"Huh? They're cooking with sweet potatoes! Can they be boiled directly at this time?"

Someone with sharp eyes saw that the person who buried the pot for cooking actually picked out a few baskets from the pile of sweet potatoes that had been weighed and carried them away.

These people suddenly felt itchy.

"Tell me, what does this sweet potato taste like?"

"Who knows, it shouldn't be too unpalatable, right?"

"Even if it's unpalatable, it's nothing, as long as it can fill the stomach and make the child grow taller, it's a good thing!"

"The yield per mu is two thousand catties, even if it tastes like shit, I'll admit it!"

The person who said the last sentence was a rough man.

As soon as he said this, he was unanimously disgusted by the people around him.

Alas!
Using shit to describe food is too disgusting!
But although the words of this person are rough, they are not rough!

This is actually true!

What kind of taste do you need if you can produce two thousand catties per mu?As long as you can eat it!
But as time passed, a sweet smell suddenly blew up the wind.

Originally, everyone was watching around, and most of them were already a little hungry.

Although I ate something and drank water before watching the excitement, but the taste is too sweet, people smell it and think it must be delicious!

It's time for dinner, and everyone has almost digested the food in their stomachs!
Under such circumstances, everyone's eyes immediately turned to the direction where the fragrance came from.

It was the dozen or so big pots that were cooking!
Could it be that this taste is the taste of sweet potatoes?

Sweet potatoes are actually sweet?
This guess made the crowd who had already stabilized their emotions break into commotion again.

You know, no matter at this time, or in the next few hundred years or thousands of years, for the Chinese, sweetness is a luxury!
Sugar is a very expensive thing!
If anyone can give some raw sugar as a gift during the Chinese New Year, they will become a precious guest immediately!

It's the honored guest!
Sugar, although it has been made in various ways since a long time ago.But the price has never been low!

The sweeter the sugar, the higher the price!
Although many people in rich places can buy some during the festivals, this does not include Youzhou, which has always been poor!

"My dear, sweet potatoes are actually sweet? Doesn't it smell sweet and taste sweet like sugar?"
