Daqin: Qin Shihuang Visited The Stalls At the Start

"Fragrant, very fragrant!"

As soon as the dishes came to the table, the three of them began to swallow.

When Su Yu handed over the bowl and chopsticks, Meng Yi and Wang Ben couldn't wait to taste it.

"good to eat!"

"This kind of taste is hard to find in the world."

"Wonderful and wonderful."

...

The chopsticks of the two people waved wildly.

The corners of his eyes twitched when he looked at Su Yu.

Lao Zhao couldn't help licking the corners of his mouth when he saw that the two of them were eating so deliciously.

He also wants to eat.

But as an emperor, someone has to test the poison before eating, right?

Seeing that the two of them swept half a plate of dishes and a bowl of rice in an instant.

Lao Zhao couldn't bear it any longer, and he picked up the guy and joined the battle.

And with the addition of Lao Zhao.

Wang Ben and Meng Yi are obviously a lot more honest.

...

"Hiccup... Little brother Su Yu, what exactly is your dish and what's in this bowl?"

Lao Zhao hiccupped and asked Su Yu.

"Yes, yes, this grain is white and full, and it doesn't seem to be wheat millet."

"Yeah, this thing has a sweet aftertaste, much better than wheat millet!"

Su Yu smiled slightly, and the main topic is coming!

"In the bowl is rice, a new staple from a crop called rice."

In fact, the crop of rice has been planted in the Chu generation generation, but the rice seeds that have not been hybridized and improved in this period have poor environmental adaptability and are suitable for planting in very few places.

Today, Da Qin has only been established for less than ten years, and the time is still short.

Coupled with the inconvenience of transportation and low production.

Therefore, some crops that were originally unknown in various countries have not yet been widely recognized.

...

New crop!

The three looked at Su Yu in surprise.

They all know what the new crop represents.

That is more abundant food reserves.

It is also a little more life guarantee for the people when they encounter famine.

It also means that Daqin's national strength is stronger!

Just by discovering new crops.

Su Yu, this is the reward!

Immediately afterwards, Wang Ben took another chopstick and slipped the shredded potato into his mouth.

"There are also yellow and clear silk, sour and appetizing, very delicious."

"And this soft and waxy thing, it's just too full."

Su Yu smiled slightly and introduced:

"Both things are made from the same crop - potatoes."

"A new crop again!?"

The three widened their eyes.

Two crops found in one day.

One of them can be used as a staple food and can be used to make dishes.

You know, during the Qin Dynasty, there were not many things to choose from on the table.

The staple food category is only five grains: millet, millet, Shun, hemp, wheat

Vegetables are without five vegetables: sunflower, radish, scallions, leeks, green onions

"Little brother Su Yu, how much are your two crops per mu?"

Lao Zhao asked a crucial question.

If the yield per mu is considerable, then today's trip is definitely an unexpected joy.

A smile appeared at the corner of Su Yu's mouth.

"My rice yields about four thousand catties per mu."

"impossible!"

Lao Zhao frowned and denied Su Yu for the first time.

What are you kidding?

Four thousand pounds?

Daqin's millet and wheat, the county with the highest yield, is only five hundred catties per mu.

Su Yu smiled slightly without explaining anything.

The farming technology in the Qin Dynasty was extremely backward.

After planting, leave it alone and let the crop grow on its own.

There's no such thing as intensive farming at all.

If encounter some special climatic conditions.

It is even more grainless.

The yield of 4,000 catties sounds fantastic to them.

At this time, Meng Yi also laughed.

"I said Su Yu, don't make fun of it, do you want to say later, your potato yields 8,000 catties per mu?"

"Boy Su Yu, if your rice can produce four thousand catties per mu, I will run around Xianyang City with bare ass!"

Wang Ben taunted Su Yu while eating shredded potatoes.

Really don't say it.

Su Yu is not afraid of anything, just afraid that others will slap him.

Do not believe it?

"Come on, don't eat, come with me..."

Su Yu stood up, dragged Wang Ben and walked outside.

"Hey, hey, don't you kid, why do you still drive people away after saying a few words to you?"

"Shut up, I'll take you to dig potatoes today and show you his per mu yield!"

Saying that, he picked up the small shovel at the door and went down to the ground.

At this time, the swollen potatoes in the yard were already ripe.

Su Yu went down with a few shovels.

I saw the mud churn.

A bunch of huge golden potatoes were dug up.

On the sturdy rhizomes, the potatoes were hanging heavy together.

ps: When talking about the problem of yield per mu, Qin Chao said that a pound of 253g

The units of measurement appearing in this book, without special explanations, are based on the standards of the Qin Dynasty.

Besides the seeds of the system, it is not too much to increase the yield by 10%-20%, right?
