After the old people present came to their senses, they all burst into tears, crying and laughing.
Although Wu and others have never planted land, they know that the wheat with the highest yield in Dajin currently has a yield of only eight stones per mu, which is eight hundred catties, which is incomparable to the three thousand catties of sweet potatoes!
Everyone was surprised by this output.
Shen Jun was still somewhat awake. He walked up to Shen Qingqian and asked in a low voice, "Sixth sister, didn't you say that the output of this thing was ten stones?"
Shen Xiao and the others had lunch and returned to the army after Sheng Ze finished talking to Shen Qingqian. At this time, the most powerful people in the field were Wu and Shen Jun.
"Yes, that's what Grandmaster Chen's handwriting says," Shen Qingqian whispered, "Maybe the land in northern Hubei is very suitable for growing sweet potatoes, right?"
In fact, she was not satisfied with the output.
These sweet potatoes were produced from random seeds given by the system, and she used diluted accelerated fertilizer, which was equivalent to detoxifying the potato seeds.
In modern times, the yield of virus-free sweet potatoes is as low as 2,700 kilograms. According to Da Jin’s calculation, that is fifty-four shi. Now it is just over 30 shi, not even half of it.
Shen Qingqian thought about it and felt that it had nothing to do with precision planting. If precision planting was used, the maximum yield per mu of virus-free sweet potatoes could reach 4,600 kilograms, which is ninety-two shi in Dajin!
Even if it were not virus-free sweet potatoes, the yield per mu would still be around 2,000 kilograms. In Shen Qingqian's opinion, this harvest could only barely meet the standard.
"This matter must be reported to the general," Shen Jun said seriously, "This matter is of great importance!"
Shen Qingqian nodded, "Well, I didn't expect the yield of this thing to be so high. If we use the method of growing vegetables in winter, the yield may be higher, and we may be able to harvest twice a year."
Her words made Shen Jun fall into deep thought.
If the sixth sister's words come true, then the Northern Hubei Army will never be short of military rations again.
For an army of 100,000 people, this is simply a great thing!
No, it should be said that sweet potato, a high-yielding food crop, is a great blessing for the entire Jin Dynasty!
But... do they really want to report this matter to the court?
Shen Qingqian did not think as much as Shen Jun thought. She took out the sweet potatoes to solve the food problem of the Northern Hubei Army. Only when her life is in her own hands can she have the capital to fight against others.
However, Shen Qingqian also knew that people like Sheng Ze and Liang Cheng must think about things more profoundly and comprehensively than she did, so she shouldn't have to worry about sweet potatoes.
Facts have proved that Shen Qingqian's idea was correct. When Liang Cheng learned about the yield of sweet potatoes, he quickly calmed down after the surprise and directly ordered the news of sweet potato yields to be blocked.
"General, this is a good thing, why don't people know about it?" Niu Manzi scratched his head and scratched his head, asking in confusion.
Liang Cheng had long since given up on this Tie Hanhan and simply ignored his question. He turned to the bodyguard and said, "This is what the Shen family girl discovered, right? Go and invite her here, and I'll ask her carefully."
The personal guard took the order and went out quickly.
"General, why on earth?" Niu Manzi continued to ask eagerly when Liang Cheng ignored him.
Before Liang Cheng could speak, Tan Chengcheng nodded at Niu Manzi's forehead, "Can you use your pig brain? If someone else gets this thing, how can we fight in the future?"
The problem of food and grass has always been a big problem for everyone. Now that Northern Hubei is about to solve this problem, of course it has to be covered up. If others know about it, wouldn't it become "Hello, I am good, everyone"? What a slap in the face!
"Uh... then we don't care about the other people in Jin Dynasty?" Niu Manzi continued to ask stupidly.
