Li Yun, a rural woman from the 21st century, had a car accident. Her soul transmigrated to the body of a woman in ancient times who shared the same name.
Her home was bare, but she wasn't...
The Duke of Huguo, along with his four sons and several servants, was waiting for Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan and Li Boyu at the gate of the capital.
When it was almost noon, Zhu Yanduan, Gao Xuankai and Li Boyuming brought three men to the gate of the capital to meet the Duke of Protectorate.
"I'm sorry to have kept Your Excellency the Duke waiting for so long." Gao Xuankai said apologetically.
"It doesn't matter, we just arrived not long ago." said the Duke of Protectorate.
"It's nothing, let's go." Zhu Yanduan said.
"Okay, let's set off and try to reach Qingshan Village as soon as possible." The Duke of Huguo now wanted to see his daughter, so he said in agreement.
So, two carriages and twenty horses galloped towards Qingshan Village.
At this moment in Qingshan Village, all the potatoes have been dug. A total of 191,258 kilograms of potatoes have been dug from the 50 acres of potatoes. 1,258 kilograms were left for the people of Qingshan County to plant, and 190,000 were given to the court.
The rice in the dry land has been harvested, but there are still one hundred acres of paddy fields to be harvested.
There were seventy acres of dry land, each acre producing one thousand four hundred and twenty-five catties. A total of ninety-nine thousand eight hundred and sixteen catties of rice were harvested, eight hundred catties of which were left for the people of Qingshan County to plant, and ninety-nine thousand catties of seeds were given to the imperial court.
Considering that it was going to rain, the villagers did not dig sweet potatoes but harvested rice. They tried to harvest 100 acres of rice in two days.
During this period, after County Magistrate Ma learned that the emperor was coming to Qingshan County, he brought Dingxiang here twice and helped Li Yun recruit 200 people from the county government to help harvest rice.
There are already 56 threshers, which can thresh 60 acres of rice a day.
The yield of rice is better than that of upland rice, with an increase of about 100 kilograms per mu, totaling about 1,500 kilograms.
This number made the emperor and the villagers excited and happy.
This is the people's food. If every household grows this kind of food every year, and each household grows two acres, they will have 3,000 kilograms of food a year.
I heard from the princess that the imperial court only collects 50% of the grain every year, so they have 1,500 kilograms of grain a year. If they plant two crops a year, they can have 3,000 kilograms of grain. Their family can basically support the whole family and no longer have to sell their children.
After two days, all the 100 acres of rice were harvested, and the dry rice grains were dried and packed. It was planned to let the emperor and Changjiang fly a plane to deliver potatoes and millet to the capital tonight to be used as seeds.
Li Yun bought two transport helicopters from Haoduoduo and asked his servants to take the potatoes and grain seeds to the back of Daqing Mountain. He waited until night to release the transport helicopters, put the potatoes and grain seeds into the helicopters with his mind, and then called the emperor and Changjiang over.
"Father, the Yangtze River, potatoes, and grain seeds have been loaded onto the plane. Be careful and make sure you fly back tomorrow night.
If it rains the day after tomorrow, the plane can no longer be flown, otherwise it will be very dangerous and the plane may crash and people may die.
Remember, if you can't fly back tomorrow, you have to wait until the rain stops before flying back." Li Yun emphasized again and again.
"Okay, we got it. If we can't fly back on time tomorrow night, we will definitely wait until the sun stops before returning. We won't take the risk of flying here." The emperor and Changjiang assured.
"Okay, I wish you a safe journey along the Yangtze River, Father! I'll wait for you at home." Li Yun knew that they had listened and would not risk coming back, so he put aside his worries and wished them a safe journey.
"Yun'er, goodbye!"
"Master, goodbye!"
The emperor and Changjiang said goodbye to Li Yun.
"Father, goodbye!"
"Goodbye, Changjiang!" Li Yun said goodbye to the emperor and Changjiang.
The emperor and Changjiang boarded their respective planes and flew back to the capital.
Li Yun watched them fly away, and she drove her carriage back home.
The next day, Li Yun got up, had breakfast, and took everyone to pick tomatoes.
If you pick tomatoes on a rainy day, they will burst open.
Today I picked the ripe tomatoes, then I can pick peanuts. Tomorrow I can pick peppers, and finally I can dig sweet potatoes.
Because digging sweet potatoes on rainy days does not harm the potatoes, Li Yun left digging the sweet potatoes to last.
Half of the people picked tomatoes and the other half picked peanuts.
After making the thresher, Li Yun asked the blacksmith team to make a peanut peeling machine.
More than a dozen peanut shelling machines were delivered today, and Li Yun personally taught them how to thresh peanuts.
This requires hands-on practice, and you will learn it quickly.
After learning how to pick peanuts, Li Yun went to help pick tomatoes.
"Madam Huang, this is a tomato. It's very fresh and delicious. You can eat it raw. Would you like to try one?" Li Yun said to the queen, pointing to the bright red tomatoes.
Because the queen's identity could not be revealed, she could only be called Madam Huang, and the empress dowager was called Old Madam Huang.
"Can it really be eaten raw? This...this lady will try it." The Queen almost let the cat out of the bag, but fortunately she reacted quickly and corrected herself.
"Mrs. Huang, just like this." Li Yun picked a ripe tomato, washed it with water, put it in his mouth and took a bite.
Well, it’s sour and sweet, very appetizing and delicious.
The queen also followed Li Yun's example and washed a big red tomato. She took a bite and found it sour and sweet and very delicious.
"Dad, Mom, would you like to try one too?" Li Yun asked Chen Mo and Qin Lanlan.
"Okay, Yun'er."
"Okay, Mommy, try one."
"Okay, Yun'er, let me try one."
Chen Mo, Qin Lanlan and the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo said.
At this point, Li Yun felt a little embarrassed.
She forgot that the original owner's biological mother was here and habitually thought that only Chen Mo and Qin Lanlan were there.
"Okay, both mothers try one." This time, Li Yun quickly changed his words.
Chen Mo, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, and Qin Lanlan followed Li Yun's example, washed a big, red, round tomato, put it in their mouths, and the sour and sweet taste made them fall in love with it immediately.
Li Yun personally washed a tomato for the Queen Mother and asked her to taste it. Then he washed another one for the old lady of the Duke's Mansion and asked her to try it as well.
The Queen Mother tried tomatoes and immediately fell in love with them. She was old and had poor teeth, so this kind of food was the easiest for her to digest.
The old lady of the Duke's Mansion was the same. She loved these sour and sweet tomatoes very much.
After eating a tomato, everyone started picking tomatoes.
Dabao and his two siblings, Xiaohua and Song Haizhong, ate one after another until they were full.
In less than two hours, all the ripe tomatoes had been picked and the servants were asked to carry them back to the villa. Li Yun then led everyone to pick peanuts.
Since there are not many peanut shredders, we have to pick the peanuts by hand.
This time, Li Yun even recruited children and the elderly to work. The elderly and children were used to pick peanuts, and men and women were used to pull peanuts.
They worked until sunset, and then Li Yun let the villagers go back to rest.
A total of twelve acres were harvested today, and twelve acres of peanuts were also harvested.
The emperor and Changjiang flew back to the capital by plane. After the plane landed, Changjiang and the emperor covered the plane with branches and leaves as usual. Changjiang took the emperor to the secret guard camp to perform light skills.
When I returned to the Dark Guard Camp, I learned that Gao Xuankai, Zhu Yanduan, and Li Boyu had taken their men to Qingshan Village.
The emperor had no choice but to ask the deputy leader and deputy commander to bring secret guards to bring potatoes and millet to the Ministry of Revenue.
