    "Okay, let's go and see if this sweet potato can yield dozens of shi per acre."

    "Liu Jin, you praised Haikou back then."

    When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, he immediately walked happily towards the sweet potato field.

    Everyone smiled and came to the sweet potato field. The sweet potato field was square and square.

    It¡¯s already autumn and almost winter. It¡¯s already a bit cold here in the capital. The leaves and canes of the sweet potatoes have withered. It¡¯s harvest season.

    "Are these sweet potatoes?"

    Emperor Hongzhi came to the sweet potato field and went to have a look in the field with great interest.

    "Your Majesty, the sweet potatoes are in the ground and you need to dig up the soil to dig them out."

    Liu Jin quickly replied.

    "That's right~"

    "Come here, bring me a hoe. I want to dig some sweet potatoes myself."

    Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood and actually wanted to dig sweet potatoes himself.

    "Your Majesty, please let me wait."

    When Liu Jian and others heard this, they immediately said.

    "You guys are digging too, I'm not letting you dig."

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said.

    Someone soon brought some hoes over here. Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others each had a hoe in their hands. They each found a place and started digging up sweet potatoes with great interest.

    "Drink~"

    Emperor Hongzhi waved his hoe high and brought it down.

    ¡°Well, the digging was a little off, but a piece of soil was still dug up.

    The sweet potato fields are filled with rows of ridged soil. The soil is very loose, so it doesn¡¯t take much effort to dig.

    Soon, Emperor Hongzhi dug out some of the soil around the roots of the sweet potatoes, and the sweet potatoes were exposed one by one.

    "Haha, I found it~"

    Seeing the sweet potatoes, Emperor Hongzhi was in a good mood, and he didn¡¯t care whether it was dirty or not. He just dug open the soil with his hands, and immediately the sweet potatoes were pulled out one by one.

    These sweet potatoes are all very big, with small ones weighing several taels, and large sweet potatoes weighing two or three kilograms. There are several sweet potatoes under one sweet potato plant just like its offspring.

    "It's quite a lot, and the gravity is pretty good."

    Emperor Hongzhi waved his hoe and kept digging, and soon he dug out all the sweet potatoes. He counted them carefully and found that there were eight sweet potatoes.

    "Why so many~"

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at the sweet potatoes he dug out and weighed them carefully. Just this sweet potato weighed several kilograms. The yield was huge.

    "This output is ok~"

    Next to them, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others also dug out a sweet potato plant, and they couldn't help but nod.

    Liu Jin was indeed not lying. The yield of this sweet potato is only several kilograms per plant. Looking at this large sweet potato field, one does not know how many sweet potatoes can be dug out.

    "Xiao Jing, take these sweet potatoes back and cook porridge later."

    Emperor Hongzhi clapped his hands and waved his hoe to dig out several sweet potato plants one after another. Like the first sweet potato plant, there were several, and the yield was also quite high.

    "It's okay, the output is so-so~"

    Liu Jin on the side also breathed a sigh of relief. The yield of this sweet potato did not disappoint.

    Sweet potatoes are really good to grow, have high yields, and taste good.

    Well, the disadvantage is that you are not very hungry. You will be full quickly after eating sweet potatoes, but you will also get hungry quickly.

    But as a supplementary food, it is very good.

    In times of famine, these sweet potatoes are life-saving food.

    "Liu Jin, let people start digging. I'm really curious now about how high the yield of these sweet potatoes is."

    Emperor Hongzhi put down his hoe and said in a good mood.

    "Yes~"

    Liu Jin nodded quickly, and then gave instructions to Mao Lun.

    Soon, many people entered the fields with hoes and began to dig up sweet potatoes.

    The sweet potatoes are being dug here, and the weighing has already been prepared over there. They are also digging and weighing at the same time.

    It doesn¡¯t take long, just a moment.

    Sweet potatoes were dug out one by one and placed on the ridges of the field. For a time, a large number of sweet potatoes could be seen in the entire field.

    "Start weighing~"

    Some people are holding baskets to pack the sweet potatoes, while others are holding large scales and notebooks.

    "One hundred catties and three pounds"There are many good places and you can grab them all.

    "Five thousand catties~"

    The weighing continued and soon exceeded the five thousand mark.

    But because of the old farmer crying, everyone became a lot more silent.

    "It's hard to prosper the people, and it's hard to destroy the people."

    They, the important ministers of the imperial court, still have many things that have not been done well, far from being done well. Just immersing themselves in the so-called prosperous age of Confucianism is too false.

    The crying old farmer in front of me seemed to be slapped in the face.

    "Five thousand five hundred and sixty-eight pounds~"

    Soon, all the sweet potatoes in one acre of land were harvested and weighed.

    Mao Lun piled the sweet potatoes together like a hill and reported the numbers at the same time.

    "More than five thousand five hundred kilograms~"

    "Okay, okay~"

    "With this sweet potato, there will be no more famines in our Ming Dynasty."

    "Liu Jin, how should I reward you?"

    Emperor Hongzhi smiled happily and nodded, then looked at Liu Jin and asked.

    "Your Majesty, I dare not take credit~"

    "The fine seeds were brought back from Golden Continent by the crew led by Marquis Taiping after going through all kinds of hardships."

    "I have no merit, so I am embarrassed to ask for a reward."

    When Liu Jin heard this, he quickly shook his head and said.

    "No, you have merit, great merit."

    Emperor Hongzhi said solemnly: "If you hadn't said that Golden Continent has high-yielding seeds, naturally there would be nothing that happened later."

    "These sweet potatoes, corns, potatoes and other excellent varieties from Golden Continent can solve the food problem of our Ming Dynasty, so that our Ming Dynasty will never have famine again."

    "This is a great achievement, and if you have merit, you will be rewarded~"

    "Well, here's the plan~"

    "Liu Jin was made Marquis of Liaodong, hereditary, promoted to one level, and rewarded with thousands of acres of fertile land in Liaodong"

    Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand and began to speak immediately.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away from Liu Jin.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT out of the fourth grade, this upgrade is from the third grade, this promotion speed is almost like a rocket.

    As for the thousands of acres of fertile land in Liaodong Emperor Hongzhi also learned bad things.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
