Datang: Angry at Li Er, he still begged me to come out of the mountain

Chapter 203
Because today is steamed buns, which is also the day of potato harvest.

"Cousin, do you think it would be better for us to burn incense and say obeisance to heaven and earth? Didn't you all swear that you can achieve an output of more than [-] catties per mu? Shouldn't we also..."

"Huh?" Jiang Yunqing nodded approvingly, and looked at Wang Ergou, "Ergou, you came from the palace, tell me your opinion."

"Men, if there is any important event, His Majesty will burn incense to heaven." Wang Ergou said.

"Then why are you still standing there, hurry up and get ready,"

Jiang Yunqing is not one of those feudal and superstitious people, but now he is in the Tang Dynasty after all, so he must go to the countryside and do as the Romans do.

After all, he didn't have much confidence in how many potatoes could grow.

That's it, now outside the vegetable shed, the heads of three livestock are placed on the incense table, and there are various snacks, and there is a big incense burner in the middle.

A few people stood obediently in front of the incense table, dignified Yan Shu, and Chen Enping specially chose an auspicious time, and when the auspicious time arrived, they shouted loudly: "The auspicious time is here! Come to incense."

Jiang Yunqing was the first to go to burn incense. It was impossible not to be excited or excited. She inserted her hand into the incense burner slightly trembling, and then the others followed closely behind, kneeling three times and knocking nine times.

In the end, it was Shuang'er who opened the door of the vegetable shed with a sense of ritual. Jiang Yunqing waved his hand, "Come on, dig the steamed buns!"

The melon seedlings of Momodan were taken care of by Chen Enping and Wang Ergou personally.

Now that they have finally grown up and are about to harvest, of course the two of them are the happiest and most excited.

"Cousin, tell me, will what we plant really be auspicious?"

Several people's hands were tightly grasping the stems and leaves, and then pulled them out forcefully.

I felt that a lot of things were pulled out by them even the pits and mud, which was heavy.

Then, everyone looked at the hands of other people. After shaking the soil, there were those buns that were bigger than fists, as if each of them weighed five or six taels.

One seedling can weigh two to three catties, so how can such an acre of land weigh seven to eight stones?

Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, one stone was 120 catties. Nowadays, no one can match the output of people and grain. It is good to have four stones per mu. If the production capacity is five stones per mu, the government will still There are additional rewards.

Wow!
Chen Enping sat down on the ground and burst into tears, "Cousin, I did it, I did it, I really did it, I planted auspiciousness, I planted it. It's really auspicious, really It's Xiangrui!"

Wang Ergou, Shuang'er, and even Li Huan'er on one side were very happy, but Jiang Yunqing frowned, "No, no, what's going on, why is it so small."

Hearing what Jiang Yunqing said, Chen Enping and the others were just about to continue comforting Jiang Yunqing, but now this is absolutely auspicious, it is a sure thing, breaking the record of grain production per mu in the lobby, the government will definitely reward them.

But Jiang Yunqing continued to reach out to dig, and immediately dug out several more buns.

When Chen Enping and Wang Ergou saw it, they were taken aback for a while, and then followed Jiang Yunqing's lead and started digging with their hands.

Shuang'er ran out, took the hoe back to the vegetable greenhouse, and started digging with the hoe.

Then, there was silence all around.

Seeing the dug out buns on the ground, the people around were speechless for a long time.

Pfft!
Chen Enping sat paralyzed on the ground, looked at the pile of steamed buns in front of him, and cried bitterly again.

Ten stone!

There are actually ten stones!
For these crops, Chen Enping is the most qualified to speak.

There were still a few seedlings left, and Chen Enping didn't care about his worn-out hands, which were already bleeding, and started the desperate digging mode.

After making sure that all the potatoes had been dug out, Chen Enping picked up a few big potatoes and held them tightly in his arms, as if they were some priceless treasures.

A pile of potatoes, big and small, the big ones are bigger than a fist, and the small ones are as small as eggs.

Regardless of her image and identity, Li Huan'er sat down directly, looked at the potatoes in front of her, looked at this, looked at that, and couldn't help but a tear flowed from her eyes.

Because there are not many seeds of Momodan, but not many are planted.

But now there are as many as one hundred catties in front of us. If all of them are used as seeds, it will be popularized throughout the Tang Dynasty in three to five years.

Ten shi, a total of [-] shi, Chen Enping estimated roughly, the harvest of [-] jin mentioned by Jiang Yunqing before is estimated to be a conservative figure, this thing can obviously produce [-] jin per mu, maybe even more of it.

"Come on!"

Li Huan'er was the first person to wake up from the shock, and immediately a farmer ran in from outside.

"Go to Princess Qinghe's Mansion quickly, and invite Princess Qinghe and the Imperial Forest Army from the Princess Mansion, and say..." Li Huan'er herself was also very excited, and she was about to have a showdown to expose her identity, and her speech was trembling, "Just say , Chen Enping, Wang Ergou, really planted auspiciousness, and now they are harvested."

After just one stick of incense, a group of imperial guards arrived on horseback at Jiangjiazhuang.

Hengdao immediately surrounded the vegetable greenhouse with murderous intent.

Not long after, Princess Qinghe Li Dexian also came. She didn't know what Li Huan'er was going to do, but she did what her sister said.

Li Dexian hurried over after hearing the news. Seeing the pile of potatoes piled up like a hill, he grabbed Li Huan'er's clothes, "This...does the emperor know?"

"The harvest has just been harvested and we haven't had time to report yet."

Chen Enping was still in a huge shock, and he was still calming down, so he stuttered when he spoke.

"Brother-in-law, this, is this edible?"

Li Dexian usually calls Li Huan'er his elder sister, but he doesn't call her Huang Jie.

Jiang Yunqing thought it was Li Huan'er and Li Dexian who got along well before, but later his father-in-law Li Erlang said that he was related to the emperor's family. It's actually good for a classic princess to have such a big relationship.

"This thing can be eaten roasted, fried, boiled, stewed, and we can also make some and try it out."

Potatoes are very versatile. Anyway, they can be cooked and eaten with any dish, stir-fried, stewed, whatever.

"The Imperial Forest Army listens to the order!"
