Ever since Zhang Yanxi introduced potatoes in the live broadcast room, Liu Che and Wei Qing beside him have been in a state of shock. They thought that he got eight stones per mu of wheat, which was an extra blessing. Unexpectedly, he would also meet his mother. How lucky is he to produce potatoes as high as sixty-six stone? How lucky?
Look carefully at this bump. Is he ugly? Not ugly at all but overly beautiful.
With such grain available, why worry about the Huns not being destroyed? Why worry about the world being unhappy?
But what Miss Zhang said next made the hearts of those who had drawn the potatoes rise to their throats.
"However, this potato also has disadvantages."
"The potatoes need to be sprouted and cut into small pieces for planting. The sprouted potatoes are toxic, so the sprouted potatoes cannot be eaten. The land used to grow potatoes cannot be used in the second year, including planting other crops. High-quality vegetables need to be cultivated for a year before you can grow anything else.”
Cao Cao and others breathed a sigh of relief. It was okay, but they were scared to death. They thought there were any disadvantages. There was not much in each dynasty, but there was a lot of land. The problems mentioned by this girl were not a problem, but sprouted potatoes. You can’t eat it, but this still needs to be announced.
Qin Shihuang watched the discussion of this group of people. He was also shocked. He saw another kind of rice seeds in his hand. He was a little disappointed. Why didn't he get potatoes? With the yield of potatoes, why worry about the Qin Dynasty still eating rice husks? food.
Zhang Yanxi answered a few more questions, and a few more drew soybeans, mung beans, various other varieties of corn, wheat, and improved varieties of rice.
"Didn't everyone get hybrid rice?" Zhang Yanxi asked in doubt. Her uncle Yuan's hybrid rice didn't appear in the blind box? Shouldn't it?
Qin Shihuang, who was disappointed with the rice seeds, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was about to ask, were excited. Is the yield per mu of rice higher than that of potatoes?
Qin Shihuang: Miss Zhang, I have this hybrid rice in my hands. I wonder what the yield per acre is?
"Congratulations to His Majesty the First Emperor. This hybrid rice is a rice variety that Grandpa Yuan, the national treasure of our flower-growing country, took several years to develop."
"The so-called hybrid rice is to cross two rice varieties that have certain genetic differences and whose excellent traits can complement each other. The leaf area coefficient of hybrid rice is larger than that of conventional rice, with more ears and better photosynthesis. Stronger, naturally more organic matter will be produced, and the rice yield will be greatly improved."
"At a time when the world's population is exploding, the successful research on hybrid rice has solved the problems of population famine and food shortage and fed at least one-fifth of the world's population. This is a milestone in my country's science and technology, Grandpa Yuan I am even known as the "Father of Hybridization."
Zhang Yanxi passionately introduced the significance of hybrid rice to future generations of flower growers. Who can not admire someone who has made great contributions to the country? Unlike Zhang Yanxi's excitement, although people from all dynasties looked excited after hearing this, I am also a little confused. The hybrid rice that Miss Qiao mentioned can feed at least one-fifth of the world's population. How many people is that?
Qin Shihuang: Miss Zhang doesn’t know how many people the flower-growing country refers to as one-fifth?
When Zhang Yanxi heard this, he patted his head: "Look at my memory. I forgot to tell everyone that the concept of the whole world didn't exist in ancient times."
I saw Zhang Yanxi, turned on the computer, and found a world map, "This sphere is where we live now. We call it - the earth. In the long river of history, by the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was no such thing as an emperor."
Emperor Qin Shihuang:……
Liu Che:......
Kangxi: There is no emperor! What about my Qing Dynasty!
Zhu Yuanzhang: It seems that great changes have taken place in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, but without the emperor, wouldn’t the country be in chaos?
"Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, there have indeed been too many wars in later generations. Our country has also buried many ancestors and heroes. The process was too tragic. We will tell you later that hundreds of years of war have led to the current flower-growing country and this earth. Go to these more than 200 countries."
"To where we live now, there is no emperor."
"Our country has a land area of only 9.3 million square kilometers and an ocean area of 4.3 million square kilometers. However, the country is not the largest flower-growing country. The largest country is Russia, which has a land area of about 1,703 square kilometers. These countries add up to almost 80 There are more than 1.6 billion people, and one-fifth of the population is almost 1.6 billion."
This hybrid rice was so terrifying that Qin Shihuang took a deep breath. The people of later generations have actually reached such a large number. They are worthy of being the descendants of our great Qin Kingdom.
Liu Che: I am jealous of my real name!
Li Shimin: Why didn’t I get it?
Cao Cao: The potatoes in my hand are a bit off.
They marveled at the large population of the later countries, and the hybrid rice that could feed billions of people, and were shocked that the people of this later generation actually had such talent and were so powerful.
Zhao Kuangyin beat his chest angrily. It was in vain that Song Dynasty was so rich and had snatched so many blind boxes but none of them were hybrid rice.
"Okay, okay, okay!" The First Emperor said hello three times in surprise. Just a moment ago, he was disappointed because he just grabbed rice seeds. Now he just wanted to dance his sword happily. After saying this, our Majesty the First Emperor picked up the sword. They danced outside the palace and expressed their joy.
Zhu Yuanzhang was not afraid of making too many concessions, "Come here, summon the ministers to see you, and have a banquet tonight to celebrate my Ming Dynasty's acquisition of this divine seed."
"Hybrid rice is most suitable for planting in places with sufficient sunshine and precipitation, which is the most suitable area in the south. If it is planted in the north, the yield will be lower and it matures once a year. But if it is planted in the south, not only will the yield per mu be higher, but also It can achieve two or even three crops a year.”
This news is a huge shock to the emperors of all planes. Who doesn’t like to eat rice? But they didn't get it, so they could only look at Qin Shihuang's barrage with jealous eyes.
Liu Xiu, who had not spoken until now, looked at the hybrid rice seeds on his desk, and his eyes lit up. The yield per mu was just that high. If planted in the south, it could even reach two crops a year or even two. Triple cooked! Liu Xiu touched his chin and looked at the rice seeds with a silly smile.
Liu Xiu: Haha! I got it! I got it!
Zhu Yuanzhang:......
Zhu Di: This person's luck is indeed beyond the comparison of ordinary people.
"But there is one thing. This hybrid rice seed cannot be saved because it is a cross between two high-quality rice species. The quality of the seeds in the next generation will be reduced a lot, and the yield may not be as high as that of ordinary rice seeds. This hybrid rice can only be produced every year. nourish."
"Although we can't save seeds, this kind of yield in one season can be compared with the yield of all the Dynasty seeds. I hope those Dynasties who get the seeds can plant them well."
