Last time, Sun Jian used a rare lottery, specifically to draw various kinds of seeds, and even 100 bags of premium seeds.

These 100 bags of seeds covered almost every random and useful herbaceous crop that appeared in later generations.

If a potato can shock him this much, what will he do if I take out corn seeds later? Won't he faint from fright?

It's worth noting that corn was only introduced to China in the tenth year of the Jiajing reign of the Ming Dynasty, which is 1531 AD. It hadn't even appeared in this era yet.

"How could I not believe what you say, sir!"

"What is the yield of this potato? What are the requirements for the growing environment?"

Magistrate Wang truly lived up to his reputation as the county's magistrate; his words hit the nail on the head.

Seeing his question, Sun Jian replied without hesitation: "In terms of yield, an average potato acre can produce about 3,000 to 5,000 catties."

"But this is not an ordinary potato. It is a super potato that I have carefully researched. It can produce 8,000 to 10,000 catties per mu."

"How much...how much? Ten thousand...ten thousand catties per mu?"

"Oh my god!"

Upon hearing this, Magistrate Wang gasped in shock, and his hands began to tremble.

Seeing his expression, Sun Jian was speechless.

"As for the environment, this thing grows underground, just like peanuts. As long as there is soil, it will produce crops regardless of whether it is cold or hot, without the need for fertilizer or irrigation."

"My God! Such a wondrous object exists!"

"Wait, sir, you just mentioned peanuts... what are peanuts...?"

Sun Jian rubbed his forehead, momentarily at a loss for words to explain.

"Peanuts are also a new crop that I developed, but they haven't been planted yet."

He then remembered that peanuts in his previous life were only introduced to China during the Ming Dynasty, so they probably didn't exist in this era!

The standards and technologies of the Daqian Dynasty were roughly the same as those of the later Tang Dynasty in its mid-to-late period.

But you never know. For example, some inventions, vegetables, vocabulary, and other things didn't exist in the Tang Dynasty of the previous era, but they do exist in this era.

Magistrate Wang was unaware of Sun Jian's thoughts at that moment. Still in shock, he continued to press for answers:

"So... how long does it take for potatoes to mature? What's the best time to plant them?"

Seeing that Magistrate Wang didn't ask about the peanuts but instead pressed for the potatoes, Sun Jian rested his chin on his hand, thought for a moment, and said calmly, "Well, I originally thought it would take a month to mature, but it's only been a little over ten days, and they can be eaten right after being dug up. I think it should be about twenty days."

"You can plant it all year round. As I just said, neither cold nor heat will affect its growth."

"Oh my god!"

Magistrate Wang uttered the words "Good heavens!" again, marking the third time he had said it during the short conversation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, several elderly men next to him also stood up from their chairs in surprise.

"Oh my god!"

"This...then isn't this a sacred object?!"

Sun Jian facepalmed. Why are you old men joining in the commotion?

"What kind of sacred object is this? I can develop many kinds of crops, it's nothing special."

"Don't make a fuss here, I'm telling you."

Although Sun Jian spoke casually, everyone's expressions of shock remained unchanged.

Chu Qingcheng, Gu Zijian, and Zhou Wan'er, the three women, also laughed out loud while watching this scene.

Their husbands have many more amazing qualities, so what's this?

They now believe that anything their husbands want to do is possible.

Who could blame them when their husbands were immortals descended to earth?

Magistrate Wang's breathing was a little rapid, but after all, he had been in officialdom for many years and tried his best to suppress his rapid heartbeat and panting: "Sir, may I take another look at this potato?"

"What's wrong with that?"

Sun Jian lazily took a potato from the bowl and handed it to Magistrate Wang.

Magistrate Wang held the potatoes in his hands, his expression growing increasingly excited, and even his body trembled slightly.

He walked shakily out of the room and into the yard, where he knelt down with a thud, holding the potatoes above his head with both hands.

"Heaven have mercy, heaven have mercy!"

"Mr. Sun, you are truly a miracle worker! With such miraculous grain, how can tens of millions of people worry about starving to death? How can our great nation not prosper!"

Sun Jian, leaning against the doorway, was speechless as he watched Magistrate Wang praying to Heaven.

"Tsk tsk, what a good official, I have to say..."

But before he could finish speaking, several old men in the village followed Magistrate Wang's example and ran into the courtyard to kneel down in worship.

"Thank God!"

"Who would have thought that our Sun Family Village would produce such an extraordinary person!"

"With such a miraculous object, we common people will no longer have to suffer from hunger!"

"The people of the counties will never be displaced again!"

I'm speechless... These old guys are crazy!

I'm the one who developed this potato, okay?

You're all shouting my name, but why are you kneeling before God? I'm right behind you!

After kneeling and bowing for a while, Magistrate Wang rose and walked to Sun Jian, his face filled with excitement, and said:

"Sir, since ancient times, food has always been the most important thing for people! But in recent years, the four countries have been in chaos, resulting in countless deaths and injuries! Natural disasters have continued, and the people are living in misery. There are corpses of the starving everywhere, and people are even exchanging their own children to eat. Their suffering is unspeakable."

"Perhaps Heaven couldn't bear to see this any longer, which is why it sent down such an extraordinary person as you, and created such a wondrous object. It may truly be the will of Heaven!"

"Alright, Lord Wang, if you keep talking like this, I'm going to get a headache!"

Sun Jian simply couldn't stand this person's incessant nagging.

He might enjoy being praised a few times, but being constantly praised by everyone every day, with endless nagging, is the most torturous thing.

Lord Wang gave a wry smile, as if he was about to say something, but then stopped abruptly, and then changed the subject:

"Sir, after we return, I will personally send troops to guard Sunjia Village so that you can plant the first batch of potatoes. I hope you will agree."

"this……"

Sun Jian hesitated. Wasn't this tantamount to putting someone under surveillance?

Magistrate Wang might not do that, but as more and more people find out about it, it's inevitable that he'll get into some unnecessary trouble in the future!

I currently have neither money nor food, nor military power, so it is not appropriate for me to show my face in public too early.

But thinking about it carefully, the potatoes have already been planted. Even if Magistrate Wang doesn't come today, the truth will eventually come out on the day of grain requisition a few days later.

Before planting the seedlings, Sun Jian had already guessed that this situation would occur. However, in this era, without him, they simply wouldn't know how to cultivate potatoes. As long as he firmly held the seedling cultivation technology in his hands, he wouldn't be afraid of anyone threatening him.

"Alright. But please remember, Lord Wang, this place is too close to the border of the Great Zhou Kingdom. Under no circumstances should any information be sent out."
