Liu Deng¡¯s voice was full of satisfaction. Su Jian and Zou Yang, standing beside him, could not help but swallow their saliva.
Looking at the pitiful looks of the two of them, Liu Deng was almost amused by them.
"One piece for each person, no one is polite!"
After getting Liu Deng¡¯s order, Su Jian hurried forward and picked up a piece for himself with chopsticks. Following Liu Deng¡¯s example, he soaked it in the cold water for a while, couldn¡¯t wait to tear open the skin, and took a beautiful bite.
Although the sweet potato was cold on the outside, it was still surprisingly hot on the inside. Feeling the sweet and delicate texture, even though the inside of his mouth was about to be blistered, Su Jian was still reluctant to spit it out.
Seeing Su Jian start eating, Zou Yang didn't show any politeness.
I hurried forward and picked up a piece. I fell in love with the taste after just one bite. You know, in this day and age, although the icing is dark and looks disgusting, the price is really good. It's really not cheap.
Ordinary poor people can only buy a little during the New Year.
As for the wild honey finally collected from the mountains, it is a supreme product. Under normal circumstances, if farmers are willing to eat these things, they must take them to the market to exchange for some food, or to subsidize themselves. for household use.
Zou Yang also lived a hard life. After all, soldiers will die in war. If the family is a little powerful, no one is willing to let their children become soldiers.
"how?"
Liu Deng has not eaten sweet potatoes for a long time. After all, these things are used as seeds. Even if he is a king, he is not willing to have people point his nose at him and say that he eats seed food.
After finishing the piece of boiled sweet potato in his hand, Liu Deng looked at Su Jian who was still unfinished and asked.
"It is indeed a wonderful product. It tastes much better than ordinary grains, and it seems to be quite filling! I just ate one piece, and now I feel four to five times full!"
You must know that as generals, they usually eat a lot. After all, people with strong bodies have fast metabolisms, so there is no way around it.
Based on his daily food intake, he would have to eat at least five kilograms of grain and one or two kilograms of meat in one meal, but the piece of sweet potato just now only weighed just over a kilogram of meat!
"Looking at the current situation, we should be able to harvest in about ten days. The temperature in this valley is suitable. It is only the end of July. According to previous years, the temperature will not drop until the end of October. Come down, which means we can plant another crop!"
¡°Don¡¯t worry, Your Majesty, leave the matter of growing grain to us!¡±
Su Jian blurted out directly.
Su Jian has an extremely flexible mind. The whole world is currently at war. After the war is over, food will inevitably become a scarce material. For the entire Dai Kingdom, this river valley is simply their big granary.
They can't get the credit for the war now. After all, the tough battles that should be fought have been almost fought.
??Besides, how can it be safe to grow food here if you are working hard on this battlefield?
Although he also wants military exploits, he even wants the brothers under his command to live well!
"Very good, I'll leave the matter here to you! From the looks of it, there are still about ten days left, so it should be mature. I will come back in ten days!"
"No!"
Su Jian and Zou Yang knelt down on one knee excitedly. With this merit, they would be famous all over the world this time.
"Okay, I'll leave this to you. I will return to Jinyang first!"
Liu Deng was worried when he came, but when he returned, he was completely free of any worries.
With these sweet potatoes as a guarantee, Liu Deng has complete confidence in solving the food crisis in Dai.
At the very least, it is no longer impossible to fill the stomachs of the people.
At this time, it would be best to receive some other food. If not, I can barely cope with just sweet potatoes.
After all, the worst case scenario is teaching the technology of making vermicelli to ordinary people. Although it will be a bit wasteful, at least the shelf life can be as long as several years.
After the heartache disappeared, Liu Deng's mood suddenly improved a lot.
Although many people in the world were displaced in this war, it has to be said that this war actually has a good side. After this war, those ambitious princes and kings are now completely finished.?.
The good things Liu Deng created before are now ready to be spread to the world.
Whether it is potatoes, sweet potatoes or corn, they are definitely epoch-making crops for the entire Han Dynasty. When they truly take root and sprout throughout the Han Dynasty, the eternal Wenjing rule will come!
The reason why the Emperor of the Ancients, who is still in his infancy, is still being criticized more than two thousand years later is because he devoted all his efforts to directly annihilate the Huns, and then caused the Han Dynasty to turn from prosperity to decline. ?
"The stronger the foundation of the country, the more food in the world, and the better the weapons of the soldiers, the vast China can at least last for a few hundred more years!"
Since he has come to this era, Liu Deng naturally does not want to see the tragedy of history repeat itself.
The story of the Three Kingdoms is certainly fascinating, but after all, it is just the internal fighting of the Han people.
The war lasted for decades, and the casualties were all Han people.
With the good mood along the way, Liu Deng rushed back to Jinyang again, and the distant Suiyang City has now almost become a purgatory on earth.
Six hundred thousand rebels attacked Suiyang as if they were desperate for their lives. Corpses were everywhere outside the city of Suiyang, and the city of Suiyang was full of smoke.
No matter how powerful the Liang Kingdom is, it is still powerless at this time in the face of this wolf-like army of the Six Nations.
"Has a messenger been sent out to ask for help?"
Liu Wu had not slept for two days and two nights, and his eyes were now covered with bloodshot eyes.
Standing in front of him, Han Anguo was hit by an arrow on his shoulder. Although half of his arm was hanging, he still couldn't put down what he was doing.
"Thirteen have been dispatched, but there is still no movement from Zhou Yafu so far!"
When he said this, even Han Anguo couldn't help but grit his teeth.
"I will personally write a letter and you will send someone to deliver it to Chang'an personally. It must be delivered to Your Majesty in person! If Your Majesty does not send someone to rescue you, the people of Suiyang City will die!"
Liu Wu really hates Zhou Yafu now. The city of Suiyang has almost run out of ammunition and food, but at this time, Zhou Yafu still refuses to send troops. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
