After drinking and eating, Li Shimin brought a large group of people to the edge of the potato field that had not yet been harvested.

Since I received the above instructions before, although I was worried that these potatoes buried in the ground would rot in the ground because of the autumn rain before I could catch them, considering that the people who came here today were nobler than the other, I could only worry secretly in my heart.

"These are all potato fields that have not been harvested yet?" Li Shimin asked, standing by the field, pointed at the neat fields.

"After returning to the emperor, since he received the oral order, he asked his servants to stop the harvest, and the remaining half of the potato fields had not been harvested." Li Anran, a landlord, had already taken advantage of the opportunity to take a nap after a meal to change into a new outfit.

Although among everyone, Li Anran is a relatively young person, her lavender robe sets off a fairy-like appearance. Especially the demeanor revealed between her eyebrows and words and deeds makes people feel confused whether this person is really young or has a permanent appearance.

Li Shimin, who had long seen from the state of the fields that had not been touched, stretched out his hand and randomly selected three pieces from the fields that were still unharvestable, and said, "Come on, go and collect the potatoes from these three pieces of land."

The advantage of being a superior is that many things are not necessary to do by yourself. Just a single order is required. Of course, a large number of people will get things done.

Now, with Li Shimin's order, the soldiers who had just been mobilized from the nearby barracks immediately turned into farmers and rushed forward, starting to work hard in the three potato fields.

In order to ensure that the potatoes in the field will not be ruined by these guys, Li Anran had to instruct Butler Wang to send a few cooked potatoes to the field for a good teaching, so as to avoid the big-headed soldiers who only knew how to use brute force to cause waste.

As the saying goes, it’s better to have more people than you can, and the same is true for harvesting potatoes.

With sufficient staff and professional guidance, in addition to some minor problems at the beginning, the subsequent harvest actions went very smoothly and were very efficient.

When the soldiers changed their posts to farmers, Li Anran also asked Wang Youde to get a scale.

There are two types of scales. One is a large scale specially used to weigh bulk items such as grain in the Tang Dynasty. The other is a large electronic platform scale brought by Li Anran from modern time and space.

As baskets of freshly unearthed potatoes were sent to the edge of the field, civil officials and generals led by Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling did not care about their respective identities and began to weigh the potatoes in person.

Dig here and scale there. After the last basket of potatoes was delivered to the field, the yield of one acre of land was also counted.

Although Li Shimin didn't think that the people below dared to deceive him in this matter after receiving the urgent report from Cheng Chusi. But after seeing that the acre of potatoes had collected a total of 200 stones and had to make a fortune, he finally let go of his heart.

After confirming that the last acre of three acres of potato fields had exceeded 200 stones, those civil and military officials who had weighed volleys by themselves regardless of their identity, they were excited and did not forget to flatter. Therefore, the statement of "Auspiciousness" was quickly recognized by everyone present.

Faced with this statement, even Li Shimin recognized it very much. However, after weighing the potatoes, he became very interested in what was planted in other fields.

"Real person, besides potatoes, are there any food brought from the upper realm here?" Li Shimin, holding a very heavy potato in his hand, looked at the other fields in the villa and asked with a meaningful question.

"It's so good that the true dragon emperor knows that this potato is not the food in the upper realm, but the things that are already there in the lower realm." Li Anran, who was accompanying him as a guide, said with a smile even though he couldn't hear that the other party had begun to think about his other crops.

"What? This potato is something that our Tang Dynasty originally had?" Li Shimin, who was secretly praising the extraordinary things in the upper world just now, was stunned by these words.

"To be precise, this potato is in the lower realm, not in the Tang Dynasty. This thing was not available in the Tang Dynasty. It was produced in a place called the Andes mountainous area in South America." Li Anran, who did not intend to conceal the true source of this thing, explained.

The reason why I don't hide it is because this kind of lie is completely unnecessary. If one day it is exposed by foreigners who rushed to the Tang Dynasty from abroad, it will easily backfire. If it is not good, it will really be shooting oneself in the foot.

"The Andes Alpine Area in South America? Where is this?" When Li Shimin heard this place that he had never heard of at all, he really couldn't imagine where this place was.

"According to the division of the upper boundary, the lower boundary, which is here, is divided into seven continents and four oceans. The area where the Tang Dynasty is located is called Asia, while the Andes are in South America. In addition, there are five continents: Europe, Africa, North America, Oceania and Antarctica."

"As for the four oceans, they are divided into the Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean and Arctic Ocean according to the sea area." Just as they planned to take this opportunity to popularize the concept of regionality for the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. After talking about the four oceans of the seven continents, Li Anran talked about the basic knowledge of the division of the earth's regional areas.

Although Li Shimin instinctively disbelief of this statement, he thought that the person in front of him had an identity from the upper realm, and there was no need to deceive himself in such matters.

Especially the other party flew from Lantian County to Fuzhou in just a few days. With such ability, it was not difficult to get local specialties from other continents. So, I believed it a little bit.

"Real person, do you say that the potatoes are obtained from the Andes Mountains? Isn't it that the country to which that mountain belongs has never had any worries about hunger?" Li Shimin, who was skeptical, asked.

"Master, I think you made a mistake. Although this potato comes from the mountainous areas of the Andes in South America, the one I have in my hand is a variety after being improved in the upper world. The original potatoes will not have such a high yield, and the taste, nutrition and taste cannot be compared with this one." Li Anran, who shook her head, said with a smile.

"If you get it to the upper world for improvement? Only then can the fans really not get ready-made specialties from the upper world?" Li Shimin, who found another question, asked.

"Master, I also want to bring something better, but I'm a taboo." Li Anran, who knew what the other party was thinking, said again: "I can take down some magic weapons from the upper realm to use, and I have already received the protection of the master. Otherwise, I would have been as free as I am now, and I would have become a mortal."

"But didn't the real person take down some treasures from the upper realm before?" Li Shimin asked unwillingly when he recalled the gifts he received.

Li Anran, who knew that if he didn't find a suitable explanation for this problem, would definitely be entangled by the other party, said with a smile: "Master, those things are treasures in the lower realm, but their value in the upper realm is far less than those crops that can have a huge impact on the mortal world. Take those gems and mirrors as examples, they are just wastes for refining weapons. Therefore, I can bring those things, but I can't bring the originals of the upper realm."

"Waste? This... how is this possible?!" When recalling the mirrors, gems and other items that were loved by the queen and beloved concubines, Li Shimin didn't know for a moment whether he should be furious or even more respectful of the mysterious upper world.

"Sir, there is nothing impossible." Li Anran, who knew that the other party was shocked by this statement, deliberately left a suspense and did not explain it. Instead, he walked to a field adjacent to the potato field, pointed to the slightly withered plant and said, "The thing planted here is called peanuts, which is also a crop with fruits hidden underground."

"The output of this thing is about 1,000 kilograms. Of course, this is just the output before it is improved. After improvement, the output of this peanut can at least double."

Li Shimin, who was still a little confused about using waste as treasures, was soon transferred to the peanut field and asked quickly: "Oh? Then this kind of peanut is the same as potatoes. Can it be used as vegetables or food?"
