Yi Chenli picked up a book from the table. An Chaoli saw that the book was "Ancient Books on Agriculture and Forestry". This book had always been a unique copy, and An Chaoli had previously searched for this book through various channels.
Good heavens! I never expected this book to be with the Sixth Prince.
Yi Chenli turned to the middle page and pointed to the red block-shaped object drawn on the page: "The book says this thing is called yam. It grows in warm soil. It grows extremely fast and no one has yet discovered and eaten it. Most importantly, the book says that yam can replace rice."
"What are you planning to do?"
Yi Chenli nodded.
An Chaoli was overjoyed. If the wild yams could really be developed and harvested, it would not only greatly save the disaster relief efforts, but also bring immeasurable benefits to the Tiansheng Kingdom in the future.
Food is a scarce commodity in every country, yet it is essential for the people. Any country that fundamentally solves this problem experiences rapid progress in its economy and agriculture.
However, not everything in the book is accurate. In this vast sea of people, where can one even begin to look for sweet potatoes?
Yi Chenli seemed to sense An Chaoli's doubts. He took out a piece of black cloth from the box on the table, and when he opened the cloth, the contents inside looked about 70-80% like the pictures in the book.
An Chaoli was somewhat excited and rushed over to take a closer look: "Where did this come from?"
"Some of the disaster victims found this on their way from the south. Some people tried to cook it along the way, but whether it was because they ate it incorrectly or because it clashed with other foods, the first group of disaster victims who ate it all died of poisoning. However, the book has the correct way to eat it, proving that it is indeed edible. I have sent people to dig up large quantities of this sweet potato, and it will be transported here soon."
Upon hearing the rest, An Chaoli's eyes lit up. He never imagined that the seemingly calm young man in front of him had already secretly arranged everything.
An Chaoli had previously worried that the Sixth Prince was not experienced enough and lacked the ability to handle such an important matter for the first time, and that following him would lead to many problems. However, the reality was that the Sixth Prince was much more reliable than he had imagined.
"If you have nothing else, sir, you should get some rest." An Chaoli was staring at him blatantly, which made Yi Chenli feel uncomfortable. His implication was that he should leave.
Most of the time, he still preferred to do things alone. Of course, the only thing he was used to was having a small figure beside him, sitting quietly next to her with a storybook in hand.
As long as she was there, even if they weren't doing the same thing, Yi Chenli wouldn't feel tired just being in the same space.
Unfortunately, Yi Chenli knew that Xiao Yuan'er was probably busy running the grain store right now, and even if she wasn't busy, she definitely wouldn't be able to come here. The environment here was too harsh for the little girl.
An Chaoli coughed awkwardly. He knew it was impolite to stare at others, and he had indeed been a bit out of line just now.
"Then I shall take my leave."
Perhaps due to their brief time together, An Chaoli made new discoveries about Yi Chenli.
The boy had boundless energy. Even though he had been busy all day, he didn't rest after returning home and started a new round of work.
But no one's body is made of iron; it's all about willpower. An Chaoli saw this and knew how difficult it was for him, and a hint of pity appeared in his eyes.
He left the tent with heavy steps and a heavy heart.
