Qin Yue Zhao had Huo's army set up a huge tent in the open space below the city gate and covered it with waterproof cloth.
After she finished all that, she replied to Chu Xiao's message, telling him that the tent was set up.
Within seconds of the message being sent, countless rice seeds, soybeans, sweet potatoes, potatoes, pumpkin seeds, winter melon seeds, watermelon seeds, and other crops were seen falling down with a clatter.
There are many categories and a huge number of products.
In particular, Chu Xiao directly asked the boss for more than thirty kinds of rice seeds.
The most expensive are non-GMO rice seeds and hybrid rice seeds.
According to the owner, this batch of seeds can produce more than 2,000 kilograms per mu (unit of land area).
Chu Xiao bought a lot of everything because he didn't know how fertile the fields were in Liangcheng.
Xu Qingsheng was stunned when he saw a tent full of seeds.
"Your Highness, what are these non-GMO hybrid rice varieties?"
"Could it be that the large-grained rice we ate before was grown from these seeds?"
Chen Wan'er nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Your Highness, isn't the deity exaggerating? Even in a prosperous era, without any natural disasters, Liangcheng can only produce three to four hundred catties of grain per mu. Can these seeds guarantee a yield of a thousand catties of grain per mu?"
If we calculate it this way, and plant all the fields inside and outside Liangcheng with rice, wouldn't the yield be a million catties?
And it's all white rice, much tastier than millet and japonica rice.
Upon hearing Chen Wan'er's words, Zheng Hu rushed forward, carrying a bag of seeds, his voice trembling with excitement:
"My God, this isn't just a seed, it's the ultimate activation device for our Great Gan Kingdom!"
"Food is the most important thing for people. If we can grow rice, not only will the people of Liangcheng not go hungry."
The gods sent not food, but a divine artifact that could change the fate of all people!
Other countries' militaries followed suit and cheered:
"Yes, it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. The gods are far-sighted and know what Liangcheng needs at every step of the way."
"Your Highness, we must grow this batch of grain ourselves first. We must not let other countries know about it, and we must guard it with heavy troops. This is the hope of a nation, and it is more important than eliminating foreign enemies."
"Once the rice is ripe, we can promote it to Kyoto, so that the people of Kyoto will also have food to eat?"
"It could even prevent the people of the world from going hungry, and Your Highness could unify the nine kingdoms with these seeds!"
The lieutenants knew that the country was suffering from a severe drought, and that the main purpose of the nine kingdoms' struggle for supremacy was still for food.
Therefore, they knew what these seeds meant.
Qin Yue Zhao nodded.
“You’re right! High-yield rice, potatoes, and even the princess are all grown within the city.”
"The land outside the city is used to grow pumpkins, winter melons, corn, and soybeans."
"But it's winter now, so it's only suitable to plant radishes, Chinese cabbage, lettuce, pickled mustard greens, winter cabbage, spinach, beets, peas, broad beans, and chives."
“Find out the crops that can be planted, and store the ones that cannot be planted in the general’s mansion’s cellar.”
Upon hearing this, the lieutenants began to go and make arrangements to find the person.
In addition to recruiting Huo's army, they also gathered tenant farmers in the city and arranged for each person to grow grain, receiving three catties of rice, two catties of flour, and two catties of meat per month.
When the people heard that they could receive grain by farming, they rushed to the city gate.
But thinking of the parched land in Liangcheng and the few farming tools he had left, he was in a dilemma.
“General, the land in Liangcheng has become as hard as iron due to the long drought. If we rely on our bronze farming tools to dig, I'm afraid each person won't be able to dig much in a day.”
"We all know how to cultivate the fields, but we have too few tools. How can we cultivate all the land in the city properly?"
Just as the people were in a dilemma, Zheng Hu had the farm tools that Chu Xiao had sent brought out.
