Chapter 468 I'm going to bed, how about we go together? It's better to have a companion
Xiao Nan looked at Qin Yu and couldn't help but extend his thumb, "Brother-in-law, you are really awesome! I knew the sweet potato yield per acre would be so high!"
Originally Xiao Nan was Qin Yu's fan, but now he is Qin Yu's believer. He will stand unswervingly on Qin Yu's side, no matter what choice Qin Yu makes.
He is not a woman, otherwise he would have to marry Qin Yu!
Emperor Wei smiled and said: "I have already ordered people to steam it, and today I want everyone to taste it."
Emperor Wei said.
Fu'an then walked in.
The maids came in carrying trays.
However, although sweet potatoes can be eaten, they are indeed not very nutritious, but in this era, it is already great to have a full meal, and the rest should be done slowly.
In fact, Emperor Wei had been keeping an eye on the growth of sweet potatoes.
Because now that the military system of the Wei Dynasty has been reformed, Qin Yu suggested that the army should no longer be stationed in the fields, but instead be a full-time military branch focused on training.
Emperor Wei was not a fool. He naturally knew that soldiers who trained all day long would be more effective.
But if you don't farm, you will lose a lot of food, and the appetite of the soldiers who train all day long will increase.
Going up and down, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Wei Dynasty consumed more food than a little bit.
Therefore, Emperor Wei has been paying attention to sweet potatoes, which are good things related to the future of the Wei Dynasty.
at the same time.
One by one, the covered porcelain plates were brought in front of everyone.
Emperor Wei opened the lid and said, "Please, everyone."
The words fell.
Everyone opened the lid one after another.
Steaming hot steamed sweet potatoes appeared in front of everyone, with a faint aroma wafting out.
Qin Yu thought about making some dried sweet potatoes with added sugar in the future, which could be used as supplementary food for marching rations, which would greatly supplement the soldiers' physical strength.
Sugar is a good thing to replenish physical strength, especially in this era.
However, sugar is not widely available and expensive, and it is not granulated sugar, so Qin Yu needs to refine it.
But that’s all for another day.
Everyone in the room carefully picked up the sweet potatoes and peeled them off, and the aroma became even stronger.
In fact, Qin Yu prefers roasted sweet potatoes to steamed sweet potatoes, because they taste more delicious.
at the same time.
Everyone put the peeled sweet potatoes into their mouths, still thinking about the taste of sweet potatoes.
Bite it into your mouth.
The unique sweetness of sweet potatoes sweeps through the mouth, and the soft and glutinous texture is very conducive to chewing. Moreover, this variety of sweet potatoes is not bad, not sticky, and the sweet potato meat inside is very delicate.
Qin Yu took a big bite and felt very surprised.
It is really pure, natural, green and pollution-free, and has a particularly strong fragrance.
The taste of this sweet potato is really different, soft, glutinous and sweet, with endless aftertaste and a strong feeling of satiety.
"I really didn't expect that the sweet potatoes with a yield of 1,800 kilograms per acre would taste so good. They were simply steamed and turned out to be so sweet and delicious."
"Wonderful, wonderful... This is truly a gift from God. It tastes so good and has such a high yield. It is simply tailor-made food for me, the Great Wei Dynasty."
"It's easy to grow, easy to survive, easy to cook, and tastes good. This is simply the best food..."
.......
Everyone in the room was eating and praising them, and they were all very satisfied with the sweet potatoes.
Emperor Wei ate it and praised it profusely, "Okay, it's really good. I didn't expect that the sweet potatoes would taste so good. It's really a blessing to the people of Wei!"
Xiao Nan didn't even bother to talk, he just ate happily. He usually ate too much delicacies from the mountains and seas, and he felt that the sweet potatoes tasted really good.
Shen Binglan was very surprised. She didn't expect that sweet potatoes would taste so good.
Not long after.
After eating the sweet potatoes, everyone felt unsatisfied.
In fact, the taste of sweet potatoes is only one aspect. It is more about their amazement at the yield of sweet potatoes per acre.
"Your Majesty, let's promote the planting of sweet potatoes as soon as possible."
Qin Wenyao looked at Emperor Wei and couldn't help but suggest.
Such a good grain variety, the sooner it is promoted and planted, the more it will benefit the people of the Wei Dynasty.
Emperor Wei nodded slightly, then looked at Qin Yu and muttered: "I am not worried about anything else. I am just worried that the sweet potatoes will be stolen by other countries. Sweet potatoes are really too important to me, the great Wei Dynasty. I must not let others
The country gets it.”
Qin Yu nodded and said thoughtfully: "I understand."
Because it is very easy to grow sweet potatoes, it is difficult not to spread the news, and then Wei's food advantage will be lost. This is what Emperor Wei does not want to see, and of course what Qin Yu does not want to see.
Qin Yu thought for a moment and then said: "I'll see if I can find a way to plant only one crop of sweet potatoes, and then the seeds will be uniformly allocated by the court. Even if others steal the sweet potatoes planted by the common people, they won't be able to plant them back."
come out."
Hear this.
Everyone's eyes lit up and they nodded.
Emperor Wei was also very excited and asked: "Is... can this still be done?"
Qin Yu said: "I don't know if it can succeed, I can only give it a try."
Emperor Wei hurriedly said: "Okay, then I'll leave this matter to you, but there's no rush now. Our sweet potato reserves are not large enough, so we still need to plant them secretly for a while."
After the discussion on the sweet potato matter was completed, Emperor Wei and all the humerus were very happy.
The Battle of Guyang Pass was a complete victory, trade cooperation was reached with various countries, and the development of sweet potatoes was very smooth.
Wei's development this year is really not going too smoothly.
There was a pause.
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu and asked: "By the way, when do you plan to take action in Dongzhou? The armies of Hebei, Qingzhou and Liba are still confronting them."
Qin Yu said calmly: "We will set off in half a month and strive to conquer Dongzhou and Hepingzhou in October."
Seeing Qin Yu so confident.
Emperor Wei and everyone were relieved.
Later, after the meeting ended.
Qin Yu, Xiao Nan and Shen Binglan left.
Xiao Nan returned to the East Palace.
Qin Yu and Shen Binglan returned to Prince Qin's Mansion. They took Zhao Ruiyuan and Gu Qingchan to play in Jinling City for a few days. He felt exhausted all over and couldn't even think of listening to music.
...
Prince Qin's Mansion.
backyard.
During the day, the Prince of Qin's Mansion was very clean.
Both Xiao Rou and Xiao Yun'er were handling government affairs in the palace.
Di Qingqing went to Zhang's Trading Company to learn business with Zhang Zhixin. Recently, Zhang's Trading Company was expanding its business and was really short of manpower. Di Qingqing went there just in time.
Cheap dad is in the palace.
Duo Jinniang also went to the palace to chat with Queen Chen.
Qin Yu went directly to the bedroom.
Shen Binglan followed Qin Yu
Qin Yu suddenly stopped and looked at Shen Binglan behind him.
Shen Binglan paused, her eyebrows furrowed, and she looked at Qin Yu with confusion.
Qin Yu said calmly: "We have all returned home. We are safe now. I want to go to bed. How about we come together? It would be nice to have company."
"you......"
Shen Binglan glared at Qin Yu fiercely, then walked straight forward, "Shameless!!!"
