Bai Ziqiu waved his hand and placed a few packets of sweet potato seeds in front of Fusu.

"This is the seeds of sweet potatoes, drought-resistant and barren-resistant, easier to survive than grains, and the yield is higher. It can reach about 40 stones per mu (one stone = 30.75 kilograms). If you can plant sweet potatoes smoothly, it will not only solve the people's food and clothing problems, but your Majesty will naturally not rush you to guard the border."

In the current Qin Dynasty, the planting level is low.

Most of the people eat millet, or yellow rice, which is extremely difficult to swallow.

Only nobles can enjoy the fine rice such as Liang.

certainly.

No matter which one it is, the survival rate is not high.

Every year, people starve to death because of food are everywhere.

If there is another flood or drought, it will be even more hungry!

If there is a crop that can be grown all year round and is very easy to survive.

Then the people's food and clothing problems can be greatly improved.

"The yield per mu is forty stones!"

Fusu's eyes turned red when he looked at the packs of seeds on the ground.

If this is true, then these sweet potatoes are really life-saving things.

It can even change the current living conditions of the people of the Qin Dynasty.

He knew that it would be good if the per mu yield capacity of ordinary grains reached four or five stones.

The yield per mu of sweet potatoes actually exceeded ten times more than ten times.

It's simply incredible!

"National Master, this is a gift from God!" Fusu held the sweet potato seeds and his hands were trembling with excitement.

Although he was a prince, he often went out of the palace to compassionate with the people.

Whenever he saw people selling their children or starving to death because they were not full, he sighed.

It's also officially because of this.

Even though he knew that his advice would make his father unhappy, he was still blunt.

In order to make the people live a better life.

Bai Ziqiu smiled: "So, is your son willing to go farming?"

actually.

The forty stones he mentioned were just conservative estimates.

after all.

In this era, whether it is planting level or damage prevention methods, they are far less developed than modern times.

It would be very good to have forty stones.

If it were modern, it would have to be doubled at least.

"I'm willing, of course I'm willing!" Fusu nodded repeatedly.

Bai Ziqiu said, "Although sweet potatoes are easy to survive, they are not so easy to plant. They need to select seeds, cultivate soil, seedlings and other complex steps. You can take this cultivation manual first."

He waved his hand and a book fell in front of Fusu.

Fusu glanced at him and showed a look of doubt: "Sow's postpartum care?"

"Sorry, I took the wrong one."

Bai Ziqiu took it back and immediately asked the Cultivation Order to translate a "Key Points of Crop Cultivation and Three-dimensional Planting Manual" and handed it to Fusu.

Fusu took the book and his eyes were even more surprised: "What is this? Can the text be recorded on it?"

This thing feels soft as cloth, but also as hard as bamboo slips, which is incredible.

"This thing is called paper, but it is very complicated to make. After you plant sweet potatoes, I can teach you how to make them." Bai Ziqiu said.

The Qin Dynasty naturally had no paper.

Generally, the recorded words are engraved on bronzes or stone tablets.

Or write it on bamboo slips or cloth with a brush!

Therefore, the writing efficiency is not very high.

Fusu's eyes were filled with joy: "Fusu will never let down his expectations!"

He finally understood why his father and Li Xiang met very much for the national teacher in front of him.

This national teacher is indeed as Li Xiang said, and he is a god!

All kinds of things that can change the times are like taking things out of their pockets.

Moreover, the national teacher is so friendly that it makes people feel good.

Bai Ziqiu said, "Although the best planting period for sweet potatoes has passed, the yield per mu may not be as high as I said, so I just think it's practice."

"You can check this book if you don't understand the rest."

The "Key Points of Crop Cultivation and Planting Manual" covers a wide range of aspects.

It includes seed selection, cultivation, soil, and even damage prevention methods.

If Fusu has a higher understanding, it would not be a problem to grow sweet potatoes.

If he can't grow it, he will only blame himself for the vegetables and no one can blame him.

"Thank you." Fusu stood up with sweet potato seeds, "Then I will study it now and I won't disturb the national teacher's meditation and practice."

"Young master walks slowly. It's inconvenient for me to practice, so I won't go out and see you off." Bai Ziqiu nodded slightly.

"No, no, the national teacher should practice with peace of mind, and Fusu will leave."

Fusu didn't stay too late and quickly left the Zen room.

After Fusu left, Bai Ziqiu stretched.

Alas, it's really tiring to maintain a mastery style.

I hope this guy can really grow sweet potatoes.

If so.

You can also plant high-yield crops such as potatoes and corn for him to plant.

It greatly alleviated the food problem of the Qin Dynasty.

The people's food is full, which is also beneficial to the spread of his myth!

This is one of the reasons why he guided Li Si to reform and taught Fusu planting.

If the myths created are widely spread, they can also obtain the value of faith to the greatest extent.

"Now the faith value is enough, you can exchange this water-control technique first."

Bai Ziqiu opened the character panel.

[Cultivation level: 11th level of Qi Refining Period]

[Have magic: wind control technique, enlightenment technique, spiritual communication technique]

[Owner Items: Storage Ring (Twenty-Seven Cubic Cubics)]

[Current belief value: 200,000]

More than four months have passed since the edict for digging the ditches was issued.

For more than four months.

Bai Ziqiu's cultivation level has also been improved smoothly.

and.

The belief value has also been greatly improved.

The increase was more than 70,000 or 80,000 yuan.

And it grows slowly every day.

This was a bit beyond Bai Ziqiu's expectations.

He thought it would be good to grow by 50,000 or 60,000.

It seems.

Due to the limitations of the times, the people believe in various myths and are willing to spread them.

This has led to the increase in belief values ​​unexpectedly.

soon.

Bai Ziqiu spent 150,000 faith values ​​to exchange for the art of controlling water.
