Chapter 296 Sweet Potato Yield per Mu(1/2)

"My son has met my father!" "The grass-roots pay homage to the emperor!"

Seeing this, Zhu Biao and other princes took the lead and everyone hurriedly saluted.

"Zi'an, have you started to scatter sweet potatoes? What is the size and what is the yield?"

After Zhu Yuanzhang nodded at Zhu Biao and others, he quickly looked at Zhu Zi'an with a hurried look on his face.

"Back to the emperor, Zi'an has just started preparing to dig soil. Before he can leave it alone, you are here!" Zhu Zi'an said.

"That's good!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang, Yang Siyi and others couldn't help but breathe slowly.

"emperor?"

Zhu Zian was stunned.

"Nothing, nothing is wrong!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand with a smile on his face and said, "Since that's the case, then let's start!"

As he said that, Zhu Yuanzhang took the lead in.

Behind him, Yang Siyi, Tang He and other ministers bowed slightly to Zhu Biao, Zhu Zi'an and others, and walked quickly.

By the time Zhu Zi'an followed, he had already seen Zhu Yuanzhang stop before the provocation.

"Shi Fu, come here again with a hoe!"

Zhu Zi'an said directly.

"yes!"

Shi Fu responded and walked straight to the side.

Just in case, he had prepared several hoes long ago.

Soon, he came over with a brand new hoe.

"Prince, please!"

"Um?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Shi Fu in confusion, and then looked at Zhu Zi'an beside him.

"Your Majesty, this is the first time I harvest sweet potatoes. Zi'an dared to ask the emperor to drive the first hoe!"

Zhu Zi'an said.

"Your Majesty, this is the right thing for me. This sweet potato is the first time I planted in the Ming Dynasty and harvested it. As the Emperor, the true dragon emperor, should drive the first hoe to give a great harvest!"

"Please drive the first hoe..."

Immediately, Li Shanchang, Tang He and other ministers hurriedly said.

"Since that's the case, let's drive the first hoe!"

Turning around, looking around, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression condensed and nodded solemnly.

You're welcome.

Walking aside, he waved his hand skillfully, cleared off the sweet potato branches and leaves on it, and then waved it directly.

Then, Zhu Yuanzhang pulled the hoe hard.

The officers and soldiers around saw that as the hoe was pulled out, a huge purple-yellow sweet potato emerged from the soil of the hoe.

Wow!

Suddenly, it became boiling.

Zhu Biao, Li Shanchang and others were all full of joy and expressions of excitement.

"Your Majesty, sweet potatoes are coming out!" "Your Majesty is lucky, and you will definitely have a good harvest this year!"

As he said that, Zhu Biao had already squatted down and put the sweet potato, which was as big as his palm, into the basket beside him.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang also agreed and looked happy. He waved the hoe again and started digging hard.

However, the next moves became more and more cautious.

Soon, a circular deep pit larger than a washbasin appeared in front of several people.

At Zhu Yuanzhang's feet, there was a bamboo basket with eight purple-yellow sweet potatoes that were thicker than their palms.

"I didn't expect that sweet potatoes can grow so big!"

This is the first time that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel excited when he threw such a big sweet potato with his own hands.

Then, he raised his head and looked at the fifty acres of sweet potatoes in front of him.

"Open the paddle!"

"Abide by the order!"

At this moment, Zhu Biao, Zhu Ting and the emperors who had already prepared, as well as Li Shanchang, Tang He, Yang Siyi and other ministers, regardless of age, waved their hoes with anticipation, each finding a sweet potato and starting to wave their hoes.

On the other side, there were a group of old farmers who skillfully waved their hoes and began to dig the emperor in a carpet-like manner.

"Zi'an, these eight sweet potatoes are as many as nine kilograms. If each sweet potato can throw so many sweet potatoes, the yield per mu can reach more than ten stones!"

Around the fertile fields, there were only Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Zi'an, standing aside, each participating.

"Your Majesty, although this sweet potato has experienced a severe drought some time ago. However, those farmers and farmers who lifted water every day, causing these sweet potatoes to be abundant in rain and yielded twelve stones per mu, so there should be no problem!"

Zhu Zi'an smiled faintly and said slowly.

"Twelve stones per mu?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, and was a little surprised at Zhu Zi'an's confidence.

The ten stones he mentioned just now were already in a very ideal state, and he even said a little more.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Zi'an dared to do this.

"Your Majesty, I'll know in a while!"

Zhu Zian didn't mean to explain too much about this.

The soil in the Ming Dynasty was very fertile.

When he was growing sweet potatoes on Wudang Mountain, he had already tested them. Under normal circumstances, the yield of twelve stones per mu is already very common.

Now, although these sweet potatoes have been placed in these high-quality fertile fields, although they have experienced severe droughts. However, these sweet potatoes are always watered by rain, which makes life much better than those sweet potatoes on Wudang Mountain.

Zhu Zi'an has already said that he has a very conservative output of twelve stones per mu!

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and just wanted to ask.

In the middle of the ground, Li Shanchang, Tang and a few of them who were digging sweet potatoes all raised their heads with surprise and reported the good news to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, I'm very happy!" "Your Majesty, I'm throwing out nine sweet potatoes!"

"Your Majesty, I am all very big!"

"Father, son minister..."

The sweet potatoes that everyone throws are no less than eight.

Even, the closer you get to the ditch.

The larger the sweet potatoes grow, the more numerous they are.

"Zi'an, this?..."

After turning around, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Zi'an with surprise and wide eyes.

"Your Majesty, the yield of sweet potatoes is very high. Just wait for a moment and you will know the answer!"

Zhu Zi'an smiled softly and said confidently.

"You should throw us a mu of sweet potatoes out!"

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and said to the people in the sweet potato field.

"I will follow the order!" "I will follow the order!"

Tang He, Li Shanchang and others quickly replied.

Fortunately, the ministers at this time were all good.

Soon, a mu of sweet potatoes had been dug out.

And in the ground, four piles of sweet potatoes like hills have been piled up.

It looks extremely spectacular.

"Emperor!" "Father..."

Zhu Biao, Li Shanchang and others were covered in mud, and even their faces were covered with mud marks.

However, at this moment, they no longer care about these things.

They all looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with excitement on their faces.
