    When he heard the word "treasure", Qin Shuo's eyes lit up, thinking that he could have any other magical weapons, but as soon as he went out, he saw several people digging a pile of grass.

    "What treasure is it? Is this piece of grass some kind of treasure? An ancient herbal medicine?"

    The person who just shouted was Mr. Jiang, so Qin Shuo also joked to Mr. Jiang.

    "Do you remember the specialty I mentioned before? It seems to be the grass in front of you, this one."

    Mr. Jiang replied excitedly.

    Qin Shuo did not dare to take it lightly when he heard this. He remembered what Mr. Jiang had said before and hurriedly walked among a few people.

    At this time, several people have dug out the grass on the ground, but there are also a few small yellow soil lumps rolling out at the bottom, which seem to be his fruits.

    Seeing those small clods of soil on the ground, Qin Shuo suddenly felt like he was about to suffocate, suffocating with joy.

    How could something like this appear in this era?  Oh my god, after having this thing, I will no longer have to worry about food or anything in my future rise.

    "This can't be a sweet potato, but why does it appear in this era?"

    Suppressing his surprise, Qin Shuo took another deep breath, and a doubt suddenly appeared in his mind.

    But after thinking for a while and not being able to figure it out, I simply blamed it on a bug in the system, but this bug was probably too big.

    Qin Shuo naturally explored the properties of this sweet potato immediately to see if he was wrong.

    ¡¾Item¡¿: Sweet potato

    ¡¾Level¡¿: God

    ¡¾Attributes¡¿: Sweet taste, used for satiety, source unknown.

    ¡¾Output¡¿: extremely high.

    Qin Shuo was confused by these attributes, but he was not surprised at all that this simple sweet potato was rated as a god-level crop because it was worth it.

    The earliest legend is that sweet potatoes were obtained by Chen Zhenlong, a Fujian native, when he went to Luzon for trade during the Ming Dynasty. At that time, there was a famine in central Fujian.

    Chen Zhenlong was also worried, so he gave the crop to the then governor Jin Xuezeng for trial planting. In the end, it achieved good results and alleviated such a famine to a great extent.

    The main crops during the Three Kingdoms period were mainly rice and wheat. However, due to backward productivity, the yield per mu was basically less than one stone.

    There were not as many crops as there are now. This is one of the reasons why there were so many famines in ancient China: productivity and production relations were too backward.

    Although they pursue intensive farming, it seems very rough compared to modern times, and they have no idea about the cultivation of crops.

    Although there are thousands of acres of fertile farmland near Shuobai Village, it is only enough to feed three thousand people. It has been a month and not much food has been saved.

    But now that sweet potatoes are available, this situation will be greatly improved. Although sweet potatoes cannot be completely used as the staple food, ordinary food can be saved.

    Sweet potatoes are also very drought-resistant. Unlike wheat and rice, they can grow even when there is insufficient rain. In times of severe drought, their growth can be accelerated.

    The yield per mu is about ten stones, which is more abnormal than those crops. There is even a gap of almost ten times, and the growth cycle is also relatively short.

    If there had been such a thing, perhaps there wouldn¡¯t have been so many peasant uprisings in ancient China, and there wouldn¡¯t have been so many people starving to death.

    After thinking of this, Qin Shuo couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart again. His luck was as abnormal as cheating.

    ¡°Don¡¯t tell anyone about this, not even the closest people.¡±

    Qin Shuo walked to Mr. Jiang and whispered.

    An ordinary man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade. If he shows this thing rashly to others without the strength to protect him, he will be killed.

    It¡¯s not that he is unwilling to share this thing. Presumably even if he takes out the seeds, they will be snatched away by a certain force in the end and will not be made public to the world.

    I want to be a benevolent and righteous person, but on this premise, I also need to protect my own interests. This sweet potato may spread naturally in a few years, but it is definitely not now.

    After digging out this sweet potato, Qin ShuoHe handed him over to Mr. Jiang and asked him to lead a few people to open an open space in a remote part of the back mountain specifically to plant this plant.

    "But that open space will be one of the most heavily guarded places in the village. No one is allowed to approach it except farmers who usually cultivate it.

    This will be Qin Shuo¡¯s most powerful weapon in his future decisive battles in the world. Before the soldiers and horses are moved, food and grass go first. Now he is accumulating food and grass.

    Of course, this sweet potato cannot crowd out other crops too much. After all, sweet potatoes cannot be used as a staple food. If they are really used as military rations, it is estimated that after the soldiers go to the battlefield, the entire battlefield will become a sea of ??yellow.

    Qin Shuo also inquired about the method of growing sweet potatoes and told Mr. Jiang that it was very easy.

    God-level Wu Ping does not mean that it has any particularly abnormal effects, but anything that goes beyond the common sense of this era can be defined as a god-level thing.

    Yellow-level items are ordinary items, Xuan-level items are exquisite items, Earth-level items are very rare items, and Heaven-level items are items that stand at the top of the world.

    Qin Shuo still remembered that in his previous life, he once met a charlatan who had a strange accent but was eloquent. He held a bag of yellow medicinal powder in his hand, which he said could increase food production.

    At the time, he didn¡¯t know why he bought the packet of medicinal powder, but after returning home, he realized that he had been cheated. However, he still remembered the charlatan¡¯s slogan.

    After using Jinzheng garbage, it yielded 1,8 per mu.

    At this time, Da Qiao in Wancheng seemed to be talking about something with Duke Qiao.  Da Qiao, who was usually very serious about his words and had a very strict upbringing, was also dancing and talking vividly about what he had experienced this time.

    When Da Qiao mentioned that the villagers in Shuobai Village were all very polite to Qin Shuo, Duke Qiao's impression of Qin Shuo became a little better. At least he knew that Qin Shuo should be regarded as a more benevolent and righteous lord.

    The Qiao family themselves are heirs of poetry and calligraphy, so they naturally highly admire the benevolence and righteousness in Confucianism.

    When Da Qiao said that all the villagers in Shuobai Village were glowing, and they were not like other people at all, Qiao Gong was already a little moved. This showed that Qin Shuo was also a relatively capable lord.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
