Chapter 164: Grain Varieties with Amazing Yields
"Father, Brother, these are the kinds of food I told you about!"
"Food? But aren't these all vegetables?" Xu Fengyu asked curiously.
"Yes, that's because they can be eaten in a variety of ways. They can be used as staple food or as a dish."
"Hey, this, there is actually such food, it's really rare! Imperial sister, where did you get it from?"
"In the deep mountains! Didn't I live alone in the mountains before? In order to survive, I looked for food everywhere in the mountains, and I found them. Later, I tried to grow them myself, and found that their yield was amazing, so I saved some."
Xu Yuexi didn't say that she exchanged it from Xiao Tongzi, because she couldn't expose Xiao Tongzi, so she had to lie.
God, please forgive her, she really didn't lie on purpose, she had to do it!
"Good Daughter"
"Royal Sister"
Xu Yan and Xu Fengyu felt sad when they heard that Xu Yuexi needed to find food in the mountains to make a living.
When they learned that she had to work in the fields herself to farm to feed herself, they were heartbroken and extremely sad!
They seemed to see Xu Yuexi's frail figure working hard on the land, and tears gradually blurred their eyes...
"Father, brother, it's all over, we don't need to think about it anymore.
Let's talk about these grains. Their yields are very good:
This is corn, and its yield per mu is generally between 800-1200 kilograms.
This is potato, and its yield per mu is between 2000 and 5000 kilograms.
This is sweet potato, which can produce 5000-7000 kilograms per acre.
Of course, the yield of these crops depends on the planting conditions and management. The better the planting conditions and the better the management, the higher the yield. "
Xu Yan and Xu Fengyu looked at each other, secretly shocked.
They were able to remain calm at first, but as Xu Yuexi produced more, their breathing became more and more rapid.
Xu Yan was fine, after all, he was the emperor and had a strong ability to withstand stress.
But Xu Fengyu was different. When he heard that the sweet potato yield per mu was as high as 5000-7000 kilograms, his body shook violently and he fell off the chair!
Xu Yuexi, who was standing by, was frightened. She hurried forward to help Xu Fengyu up and asked with concern, "Brother Huang, what's wrong with you? Do you want me to help you?"
Xu Fengyu shook his head and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "I... I'm fine, the yield of this sweet potato is really shocking!"
The output was so terrifying that he was shocked!
"My dear daughter, how long does it take to grow these crops? One year? Two years? Three years?" Xu Yan suppressed his inner excitement, pinched his hands that were shaking with excitement and asked.
"It doesn't take that long, usually it can be harvested in three to six months."
"puff"
Xu Fengyu, who had just sat down, fell down again.
This, this, this yield is so amazing, and the growth cycle is so short!
Where in the deep mountains did his sister find such a magical seed? Could she have transformed it herself?
If these high-quality varieties of "potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn" were promoted for cultivation in their country, there would be no more people starving to death every year in their country of Saint Jersey, and their country would be prosperous!
Xu Yuexi looked at Xu Fengyu who fell to the ground again, and couldn't help but twitch her lips. So, her brother was frightened by the yield of these crops? As the crown prince of a country, isn't his tolerance too poor?
In fact, it’s no wonder that Xu Fengyu was so surprised, as the output of various grains in Saint Jersey is not high.
The best land only produces 600-700 kilograms of grain per mu, and the worst land only produces 200-300 kilograms. Wouldn't it scare him if Xu Yuexi reported a yield of several thousand kilograms?
"My dear daughter, how many good seeds do you have?"
"Not much, at most about 2,000 kilograms of each. I am alone, so I can't plant on a large scale, so I only planted a little over one mu of land. But the problem now is that I don't know what the land in the disaster-stricken areas in the north is like, so their yields may not be guaranteed."
After saying that, Xu Yuexi took out another book.
"Recently, I have sorted out the relevant information about these grains, and recorded all the land conditions, climate environment, planting techniques and precautions required for growing these crops. I believe that anyone who is an expert in farming can grow them well after reading this booklet.
The rest of the matter will be arranged by Father. I have also taken out the seeds and put them in the storehouse in my palace. Father can just send someone to get them. "
Recently, Xu Yuexi went to the study space and flipped through many books before sorting out this booklet. She really spent a lot of energy to help. The rest of the things will be left to her father and brother to deal with. As a woman, she can just help with some ideas, and it is not her turn to worry about other things.
"Okay, okay, my good daughter does things properly and I like her very much. I will take care of the rest. Just wait to be the bride. After all, your wedding with Liu Qing is only a little over a month away."
"Yes, Father, your daughter understands."
