Today, what should have been a quiet field has become very lively.
Because today is the day when Su Chenhui’s two young silk seedlings mature!
After Su Chen's hard publicity, everyone knew about his planting of new rice and came to watch it one after another.
There were nearly ten thousand people present, almost half of the population of Yizhou!
"The auspicious time has come, let the harvest begin!"
Su Chen gave an order, and dozens of people, including Prince Li Chengqian and Li Junxian, waved their sickles and began to harvest rice!
And he himself stood on the edge of the field with his hands behind his hands, silently waiting for the final result with some anxiety.
Because he had already boasted about Haikou before, saying that Huiliang Yousi seedlings could produce twenty dan per mu.
However, after all, the soil and climate in ancient times are still quite different in modern times more than a thousand years later.
If he fails to meet this standard by then, wouldn't he be slapped in the face?
Just when Su Chen was distracted, Princess Changle came over, held Su Chen's hand, and said, "Brother Su Chen, don't worry, these crops are growing so well, the harvest will definitely not be low."
"Well, let me lend you some good words."
Su Chen smiled slightly and nodded.
At this moment, a familiar electronic sound sounded in his mind.
"Ding, it was detected that the host successfully planted Huiliangyousi seedlings, successfully completed the task, and started to activate the exchange mall."
"Ding, the redemption mall has been activated!"
After saying that, the system disappeared again.
Very good!
Su Chen was very happy!
This time, Su Chen took it seriously and did not ask it to come out for acceptance. It was a success, which is worthy of praise!
And just when Su Chen was in a good mood, bursts of cheers came from the rice fields ahead!
"I actually harvested twenty-three stones from this acre of land!" Li Chengqian shouted in disbelief.
As his harvest was completed, other fields were almost finished harvesting and bearing load.
"Nineteen stones!"
"Twenty-one stones!"
"Twenty stones!"
…
Listening to the numbers one by one, the people around them also shouted enthusiastically!
Unexpectedly, as Su Chen said, the yield of this new type of rice can be as high as 20 dan per mu!
Coupled with Yizhou's unique climate that allows rice to be harvested three times a year, all this is so exciting!
With this high-yielding rice, will they still be hungry in their lives?!
When they thought that Su Chen had generously given all the rice to them for free, everyone looked at Su Chen with gratitude.
Not only that, the Yizhou County magistrate who came to watch the harvest was also completely stupid.
Originally, he thought Su Chen was just a playboy from Chang'an City.
The reason why we are developing new types of rice is probably because we have too much time.
Even when he said that the yield per mu was twenty dan, he just took it as a joke.
Unexpectedly, Su Chen was not bragging, all of this was true!
At this point, the county magistrate has become a little short of breath!
You know, Jiannan Road currently has a population of more than 10,000 households, of which less than 70% can barely feed themselves!
With this new type of high-yielding rice, within half a year, people in Jiannan Road will no longer go hungry!
Now, the way he looked at Su Chen had changed!
Before, he was very scornful towards Su Chen due to orders, but now it has turned into respect from the bottom of his heart!
Another half hour passed.
All rice has been harvested.
With the help of farmers, bags of rice were piled up into hills.
Su Chen looked at the excited people in front of him and said, "Since everyone is here, I don't need to make another trip."
“Each household takes a bag and goes back to plant it themselves!”
"For those who didn't come today, please help bring some!"
Hearing this, the people burst into cheers!
"My lord, didn't you know that you respect the great name?" someone suddenly asked.
"It doesn't matter what my name is."
Su Chen said with a smile: "Just remember that the name of this kind of rice is Su Dao."
"Su Dao?"
The people murmured to themselves.
Could it be that Su Shu, Su Yan, and the Su Li they are using now were all made by noble people?!
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Su Chen as if they were respecting a god!
"One more thing, this is growing food."
Ignoring their gazes, Su Chen continued: "When planting for the first time, do not sow more than two bushels per acre of land."
“When transplanting rice seedlings, be sure to spread them out!”
…
The reason why Su Chen gave so many instructions was mainly because the ancients still didn't understand what raising land meant.
Although Yizhou is a rare plant paradise with fertile land and abundant water.
However, if they don't know some ways to increase fertility, they may waste such good land in vain.
Finally, Su Chen pointed at Lao Liu and said: "If there is anything you don't understand, go to Lao Wang and ask."
Hearing this, Lao Wang puffed up his chest proudly and said, "You can just come and ask me. I am already familiar with Mr. Su Chen's method of raising land!"
After giving these instructions, Su Chen was ready to return home quietly.
Before Su Chen took two steps, he was suddenly stopped by the Yizhou County Magistrate and a stranger.
"What do you want to do?" Su Chen asked.
"This is the county guard of our Jiannan Road."
The county magistrate introduced it, and then asked: "I would like to ask, can some of this Su Dao be distributed to other people in Jiannan Road?"
"Of course you can. I estimate that after the people in Yizhou finish dividing it, there will be a lot left."
Su Chen smiled and said, "Just let everyone take it away when the time comes!"
"Great, great!" the county guard said with a trembling voice.
After saying that, he seemed to have forgotten about Su Chen and ran directly to the side to start making arrangements.
Seeing that the county magistrate hadn't left yet, Su Chen asked again: "Do you have anything else to do?"
The county magistrate smiled and said: "Master Su Chen, the county magistrate was too excited just now, so he forgot to say it. Let me say it for him."
"From now on, all the people in Jiannan Dao have received your great kindness. If you need anything in the future, just ask and we will be happy to help you!"
Hearing this, Su Chen shook his head and said: "No need, I've already troubled you a lot this time, I don't need you to help me."
After saying that, Su Chen stopped staying, greeted Lao Zhao and went back to his home.
On the way, Princess Changle asked a little depressed, "Brother Su Chen, are we going back to Chang'an now?"
"Why, after so many days, haven't you had enough fun?" Su Chen said with a smile.
Seeing that Princess Changle still didn't speak, Su Chen understood, so he said: "After you return to Chang'an, if nothing happens to you, I will welcome you there at any time."
