    Several guards were carrying a large scale and weighing the baskets little by little. The lunches they had prepared long ago were placed nearby, but no one was interested in them at this time.

    Liu Deng didn't care so much, he just asked Du Ziteng to serve him a large bowl of mutton soup. After taking a sip, his eyes immediately lit up.

    I don¡¯t know how the army cooks cooked it, but the mutton soup tastes really good.

    He picked up a large piece of wheat cake, soaked it in the mutton soup and stuffed it into his mouth. Not to mention how delicious it tasted.

    However, Liu Deng couldn¡¯t help but click his mouth as he ate.

    If there is a handful of vermicelli in this mutton soup, the taste will be perfect

    ?????????????????? Although there is a bumper harvest of sweet potatoes this time, with Zhang Tu here, I probably don¡¯t even have to think about eating vermicelli.

    "How much is it? How much is it?"

    Zhang Tu stood beside him blankly, rubbing his hands and looking at the sweet potatoes on the ground. Every once in a while, he excitedly asked the guards.

    "Master Taifu, it's already fifty stones!"

    The guards were all going crazy with joy, and everyone was extremely excited.

    It¡¯s already fifty stones, but the total number of sweet potatoes that have been weighed is less than one-tenth of the total!

    Everyone¡¯s eyes are red, this is only two acres of land!

    You know, in this day and age, a family of three only needs about thirty dan of food a year!

    If calculated based on this output, this acre of land can feed dozens of people!

    "Your Majesty, this is the first auspicious occasion since the beginning of the world! Otherwise, why don't we give His Majesty a token of congratulations?"

    Zhang Tu suddenly felt that his legs were a little weak. The little care he had taken at the beginning was now forgotten. The output of this thing was so amazing that he did not dare to hide it.  .

    "Why are you so anxious? We are just a two-acre experimental field now. It has not been promoted on a large scale, and it has not even been grown in the wild. What reference value does it have? It will be too late to give His Majesty the good news after a good harvest in the Hutuo River Valley.  !¡±

    Liu Deng rolled his eyes at him disapprovingly. Where did this old man's old sophistication go?

    Why are you acting so frizzy today, like a young boy?

    "My King, did you already know that the output of this thing is so amazing?"

    Zhang Tu rubbed his hands and came to Liu Deng's side, and finally said something clear.

    "I had heard that the output of this thing was very high, but I didn't expect it to be so high"

    ¡°After all, according to the records of later generations, one acre of sweet potatoes only yielded 30,000 kilograms per mu.

    I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s because this thing traveled through the wormhole, but the sudden increase in production is really huge.

    You must know that one acre of land now is different from one acre in later generations. It is only about seven or eight times the size of later generations.

    Although the weighing has not yet been completed, according to estimates, the output far exceeds the figure of 30,000 kilograms.

    If the 30,000 kilograms in later generations were converted to today, that would be a full 500 shi!

    And what is the current grain production?

    Liu Deng did some homework before coming here. Based on last year's grain output, if all the land in the entire Dai Kingdom is averaged, the average grain yield per 100 acres is only three hundred shi!

    Now, the output of this acre of land is more than 500 shi, which is equivalent to directly increasing the food output of Dai country by 1670 times.

    Although it is said that the two acres of land are just experimental fields now, whether it is the fertility of the land or the meticulous care of the crops by these guards, there is really no way to compare it with the food grown naturally in the wild.

    But even if this output is discounted by 50%, it will still be a leapfrog growth for the country's food production.

    "Your Majesty, is the Shennong Temple that your Majesty told you a few days ago too small? The veteran suggested that the Shennong Temple should be expanded at least ten times!"

    Zhang Tu's words made the corners of Liu Deng's mouth twitch. Because it was ordered by the emperor himself, the newly built Shennong Temple already covers an area of ??three acres. If it is expanded ten times, it will be 30 acres.  .

    ????????? Is this the Shennong Temple you built?

    Covering an area of ??threeMom, it¡¯s almost time to catch up with the emperor¡¯s palace

    "No need to be so exaggerated, right?"

    "Your Majesty, I have received such great grace from the Shennong family on behalf of my country. What does a mere Shennong Temple mean? I think that your Majesty should summon the most learned people from all over the world to write a grand essay to record it!"

    Liu Deng suddenly felt a toothache. With the old man's current enthusiasm, if you told him to blow up the emperor's palace and turn it into the Shennong Temple, he would dare to go

    ¡°Then let¡¯s leave this matter to the Grand Tutor¡­¡±

    "No! Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will handle this matter properly!"

    Liu Deng really couldn't stand it anymore. This old man was really crazy. If he hadn't been waiting to see the final production statistics, Liu Deng would have really wanted to give this old man a stick.

    Because of the growing method, potatoes have not been widely promoted until now, but Liu Deng has begun to look forward to how much surprise potatoes can bring to him.

    After all, countless planting experiences in later generations have long proven that potatoes are extremely adaptable to the Loess Plateau, and even became one of the most important food crops for a time.

    Although the yield of sweet potatoes is amazing, their requirements for rain are still quite high.

    In the entire Dai Kingdom, irrigated land still accounts for a minority, and most of the land is hillside land that relies on the sky for food.

    After finishing the lunch in shock, Liu Deng simply sat aside and began to fall asleep. The ancients said that spring is sleepy and autumn is tired, not to mention that Liu Deng got up early this morning. After eating and drinking,  The sleepiness was even more unbearable.

    "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! The yield has come out, the yield has come out! Two acres of land is equivalent to one thousand one hundred and fifty-three stones and six pounds and seven taels!"

    Liu Dengzhu and Zhou Gong had just put the chessboard on the table when they were immediately shaken awake by this piece of slaughter.

    "How many did you say?"

    "Back to your Majesty, two acres of land are worth one thousand one hundred and fifty-three shi and six pounds and seven taels! The yield per mu has exceeded 500 shi!"

    Zhang Tu was so excited that he started talking nonsense. Even Liu Deng was stunned for a while. One thousand one hundred and fifty-three stones, six pounds and seven taels!

    You must know that one acre of land now is only sixty-seven percent of what it will be in future generations. If it were converted into one acre of land in the future, the yield of this acre would be more than 50,000 kilograms.

    After calculating this number, Liu Deng was stunned. This is so fucking crazy (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
