The plant cultivation manual is very comprehensive, covering the prevention and control of diseases and pests, so the potatoes grow well.
If nothing goes wrong, this thing can be planted in large quantities when it is harvested, and will become one of the important foods for people to fill their stomachs in the future.
In addition to male farmers, there are also female farmers working in the fields. None of them wear hats, but show their full faces and wear shorts, just like men, working hard in the fields.
Shi's mother had not left the house since she was found by her daughter last time and had someone to rely on. Today was her first time going out. It was the first time for her to see women working openly in front of others with their faces exposed. And because it was too hot, their short clothes could not cover their wrists, so they were all exposed.
Shi's mother looked at them in secret surprise, as if she had seen something incredible.
All their attention was on their master, so they naturally noticed Kali's gaze. After noticing Kali's surprise, they looked a little uncomfortable.
But when they saw the Lord's figure, their uncomfortable expressions immediately disappeared, leaving only full determination.
They never imagined that there would be a day when they would be able to work in the fields with their arms and faces exposed.
When the weather is hot and you have to go to work, you don't want to wear too heavy clothes, nor do you want to wear a stuffy hat to work. But there is no way. It has been like this since ancient times. Even if the family cannot do without women's labor, they are still bound when they go out to work.
Now that the master has given his approval and has sent people to enforce it, women no longer have to wear thick veils to cover their faces when they go out.
There were some objections at the beginning. They ate the relief food provided by the lord and lived in the houses built by the lord's orders, but they openly resisted the lord's new system and loudly insulted the women who were the first to throw away their hats and go out.
At that time, they were considered pioneers, the first group of women who bravely responded to the Lord's new system.
I was almost scolded by them and backed off.
But at that time the Lord put them in prison and punished them according to the law.
With the support of their master, the first group of women gradually became bolder. Within half a month, all the women in this area dared to go out.
It’s just because of time constraints that this liberation has not spread to more places. However, if nothing unexpected happens, as time goes on, the Lord’s system will be spread by officers and soldiers, and then this new system will become mainstream.
At that time, the David hat will become an outlier.
In order to protect the strong women who go out from being bullied, Chu Qi also specially assigned people to patrol day and night, which greatly ensured the safety of the women.
Shi's mother did not dare to ask, so Shi Qian took the initiative to explain softly in her ear:
"Women are not allowed to wear hats when they go out. This is a law issued by Yun Chang."
A farmer came up and reported to Chu Qi about the growth of potatoes during this period.
Before the potatoes were put into cultivation, Chu Qi had already instructed people to take out some of the potatoes produced by the system, cook them and distribute them to some farmers. At that time, the fragrant smell of the potatoes was smelled by everyone present. Some people ate the potatoes and found nothing wrong with them. Instead, they praised the potatoes for being delicious.
After learning that potatoes are edible and delicious, the farmers who were able to taste them were immediately envied and hated. At the same time, the idea of using most of the fields to grow potatoes was no longer objected by the farmers.
Farmers work hard day and night, looking forward to the first batch of mature potatoes in three months, which can then be officially included in their daily food.
When the farmer spoke, the way he looked at Chu Qi was no different from the way he looked at Shennong.
After the vigorous publicity by Xuanyou and others, everyone knew that the person who could come up with such magical food was the Emperor of Chu, their master.
Unknown to Chu Qi, many farmers even offered longevity tablets to her at home, praying that their Shennong would have good health, longevity, and great fortune.
After listening to the farmer's report on the growth of potatoes and checking it out personally to make sure there were no problems, Chu Qi rushed to the next place.
After a busy day, most of the time was spent on the road.
At noon, Chu Qi and Shi Qian had lunch at a farmer's house. After the meal, they gave the meal money to the farmer, but the farmer refused to accept it and said that it was a blessing for his master to come here to eat.
The guard who gave him the money had a cold attitude and just forced the money on him.
Chu Qi waved her hand, "If that's the case, forget it, let's go."
The guard nodded.
Before leaving, Chu Qi stuffed a copper coin at the bottom of the bowl.
No one has an easy life these days, except corrupt officials.
When the farmer was cleaning up the dishes, he found money at the bottom of the bowl. He was moved and helpless at the same time.
His family had fled here, and they were taken in by the State of Chu, who also provided him with food and a job. The fact that his master could eat at his house was really a blessing he had earned in his previous life. He really didn't want to accept the meal money, but he didn't expect his master to be so kind and actually gave it to him secretly.
It was not appropriate to chase after him now, so he had to take the money and put it directly in front of the longevity tablet as an offering. When he went to work in the afternoon, he spread the news that his master had dinner at his house and showed off to the group of friends he had just met.
Instantly attracted countless envy and jealousy.

The next day, Chu Qi arrived early in the morning, with the guards behind him carrying more than a dozen boxes of betrothal gifts, to propose marriage to Shi Qiang.
Originally, my father wanted to go to the county government office early today. However, when he heard that the master was coming to propose to his daughter, he immediately forgot about his work. Before dawn, he and his wife were thinking about what clothes to wear to meet the guest.
When the lord really came, the couple was in a trance for a moment.
Although the selection of concubines does not count as marriage, it is at least considered a marriage. Unexpectedly, the daughter would elope with her lover without saying a word, and then her lover became the emperor of Chu, and now the emperor of Chu is proposing to her.
