Chapter 296 Yield

   "Looks like my plan is going to fail." Zhou Ying said with a depressed expression.

"what's the plan?"

   "Sweet potato Teng, I was thinking of collecting some to be transported to Zhuangzi for the cattle and sheep to eat, the wind that was just released in the morning."

   Gu Chengrui pondered for a while and said, "Aren't the sweet potatoes in the space ripe too?

   Next, let's go to Zhuangshang to help collect sweet potatoes. I'll cover you and you can take some out of the space. "

   "Also, by the way, you can serve the food first, and the meal can be served when the fire is lit."

   "Okay." After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he walked out and started serving the dishes on the table.

   After Gu Chengrui went back, when he came back, the patriarch and shopkeeper Liu also came over to help with the dishes.

   Shopkeeper Liu looked at the sweet potato on the table and asked in surprise, "Girl Zhou, can this sweet potato be used for hot pot too?"

   "Yes, but try to eat later as much as possible, you may be full."

   "That's right, I just happened to taste what sweet potatoes taste like."

   "Why, you have never eaten such a large piece of sweet potato."

   "I can't bear it, I've only eaten sweet potatoes." After Mr. Liu finished speaking, he began to help serve the dishes.

   When they were about the same time, the charcoal also burned. After it was installed, Gu Chengrui carried it in.

   In the end, Zhou Ying gave them a jar of sorghum wine in a five-kilogram jar, and then went back to the kitchen with the leftover sour soup to make a sour soup and fat sheep, and had a full meal.

  After the meal, a group of people began to collect sweet potatoes in the village. Of course, they did not collect them in vain. The price given by the third prince was ten cents per pound, which was quite high.

   So most of the people in the village are still willing, after all, they can plant again after the spring of next year.

   Of course, Zhou Ying’s house was the first stop. After setting aside 1,000 catties of sweet potatoes, the remaining 6,000 catties were taken away.

   After they left, Zhou Ying simply flattened the ground and planted red cabbage, rapeseed and spinach.

   Then, half of the sweet potatoes were collected in the cellar, and the other half was going to be peeled with a paring knife, then cut into small pieces, and eaten as sweet potato rice when the weather was good.

  After dinner, Zhou Ying asked curiously, "Brother Rui, how many kilograms of sweet potatoes are in one mu of land in the village?"

   "No wait, but generally speaking, the spring sweet potato is more than 6,000 kilograms, and the later planting is a little worse. In general, it is quite good."

   "That's good, at least we can ensure that everyone has food to eat." Zhou Ying said.

   In the next three days, the husband and wife began to help collect sweet potatoes in the village, and of course they would also take out some sweet potatoes from time to time.

   However, because of the old lady, she didn't dare to take more, only twenty acres of sweet potatoes.

   After the early-planted sweet potatoes were harvested, the third prince asked shopkeeper Liu, "How many kilograms are the sweet potatoes in this village in one mu?"

   "The subordinates weighed it, and it was about 8,000 jin in the ground, and a little less on the grassland, about 5,000 jin.

   By the way, there is still a batch of planting late, Zhou Ying means that we have to wait another month before harvesting. Shopkeeper Liu paused when he said this: "The best sweet potato harvest is from Zhou Ying's family. The yield per mu is more than 9,000 catties."

   is said to be because the sweet potatoes in her family have never been short of water. From the perspective of her subordinates, she really has to find a sandy land with sufficient water to plant them. "

  The third prince nodded in agreement and asked, "How many acres are left?"

   "About 300 acres, which were planted by subordinates."

   "Then let's keep it all, in addition to the rations of the people on Zhuangzi, there are seeds for next year.

   Again, after harvesting the sweet potatoes, you continue to stay on the village, one is to protect the safety of their husband and wife, and the other is to protect the cattle and sheep and the remaining seeds.

   If next year is good, you will cooperate with the magistrate of Kong to promote sweet potatoes in Canal County. "
