Chapter 355: Harvest at Sea 2



"This, potatoes are really that amazing, with high yields, how high can they be?"

"It should weigh at least 1,200 kilograms."

Chen Li estimated in his mind that, excluding the land, fertilizer and improvements, the yield per mu should be able to reach 1,200 kilograms. You know, this is an easy task nowadays.

Even so, Lu Jing was shocked when he heard this.

"Really?"

He suddenly stood up, the aura of a nobleman disappeared, and his face was full of anxiety.

"It's true."

"That's great, that's great."

Lu Jing walked back and forth in the room like a child who had obtained his favorite toy.

"Ali, then..."

He looked at the remaining five boxes and looked at Chen Li eagerly, hoping that there would be other good things inside.

Chen Li opened the next box and as soon as she opened it, she smelled a foul odor. When she opened it, she found that the crew had put some fresh vegetables in it, which had not been well preserved during the journey and had now rotted.

Chen Li stared at it for a moment, then reached out and took out a pool of brown liquid. After staring at it for two seconds, she suddenly laughed out loud. It turned out to be a tomato!

Lu Jing watched Chen Li staring at a pile of rotten things for a long time, and then realized that this was also a useful thing, but he didn't know what I would eat.

Chen Li put the things in her hand back into the box, took out a handkerchief to wipe the stains on her hands, and said to Lu Jing beside her: "This box of things is useful. Let someone clean out all the seeds in it. This is a good thing."

"good."

What Chen Li didn't know was that the crew had eaten this thing locally and thought it was good, so they bought it and ate it themselves, but they didn't have time to eat it later.

A crew member's boss asked him to collect some rare things, so he bravely packed some rotten tomatoes in.

Chen Li opened another box, which contained some seeds. There was no name on them, so he put them aside and looked at the next box first.

The next box contains a box of watermelons. Watermelons are more durable and have not been damaged yet, so they are also good things.

The next two boxes contain some local specialty accessories that are rarely seen on the mainland.

The two of them looked expectantly at the last box. Lu Jing opened it and looked. "Hey, what is this? Why is it so bright?"

Chen Li saw Lu Jing holding a golden corn cob in his beautiful hand.

I immediately walked to the last box and saw more than a dozen ripe corns lying quietly in the box. Great, I had one more staple food.

"Lu Jing, potatoes and this alone can bring you huge profits. You are very lucky."

Lu Jing was also happy, but he soon realized that huge benefits also come with risks, and he could not protect these things by himself. He still had this self-awareness.

"Ali, I can't eat these. Take them away and give them to King Jingnan."

The reason why he handed it over to Pei Yu was because he did not know the emperor. If he handed it over to someone else, apart from anything else, he might lose his life.

Because the yield of these grains is very high, it means that the contribution is great. There are many greedy people who will definitely want to take all the credit for such a great contribution.

He would feel most at ease only if he handed it over to Chen Li. Only in this way could the Lu family be safe and the credit fall on him.

Anyway, they have been in the same boat since the last treasure map incident.

But he would always feel unwilling to hand it over to Prince Jingnan.

"good."

I originally thought he would keep it for himself to grow, but I didn't expect him to hand it all over.

"I have one more request."

"you say."

Lu Jing said seriously, "If these seeds are to be promoted in Yan State in the future, I want to have the priority right to use and operate them."

"I can't agree to this on Pei Yu's behalf. I'll write to him and let him know when the time comes."

"good."

Pei Yu did not force it. Even if he could not get this, he could still ask for it. He could not refuse all the others.

"Lu Jing, I want to take this batch of seeds away now."

Lu Jing slowly regained his composure. Seeing Chen Li's serious expression, he thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

He believed that Chen Li would not embezzle these seeds. Not to mention the credit, she was not that kind of person.

"Okay, I'll have someone send it to Daohua Village later."

While the two were talking, the boat had already docked.

"A-Li, I brought back some beautiful glassware from this voyage. I'll have someone send it over later."

"You see, they also developed this portable and compact mirror, which is much clearer than a bronze mirror."

He took out a delicate and small mirror from his sleeve. Chen Li took it curiously. When he opened the mirror, a girl with delicate features and a heroic look between her brows appeared in it.

It is indeed much clearer than a bronze mirror, a little bit worse than a modern mirror, but it is already very good.

"Yes, it's very good indeed."

Lu Jing smiled faintly, without revealing any of his usual businessman shrewdness. "They brought back quite a lot, and I plan to sell them at a high price when the time comes."

"Those girls will probably like it very much."

Especially nowadays girls like to compare with each other. They want to have what you have, so this mirror is high-end and has no worries about sales.

Some people even take them to the capital to sell, where the price may be higher.

"I'll have someone take you back."

"good."

It was naturally good to have someone deliver these things to him, and soon Mobile Phone returned to Daohua Village in the Lu family's carriage.

"Ali, what are these..."

When Lin Cuicui saw Chen Li coming back and the servants behind her carrying several large boxes, she stepped forward and asked.

"Mom, there are two boxes of glass in there. Take a look later and use whatever you like."

After saying this, she instructed the servants to send her boxes back to her yard, and then she went into the house with Lin Cuicui.

"Mom, look, what is this?"

Lin Cuicui looked over and saw a round object in Chen Li's palm, with exquisite and intricate patterns carved on it.

I took it and looked at it carefully. After opening it, I was surprised. "Ali, this mirror is much clearer than the bronze mirror!"

When Xu Taohua heard this, she came over, and Chen Li also took one and handed it to her.

These were all given by Lu Jing. He has never been a stingy person. He knew that there were other female relatives in Chen Li's family, so it was naturally impossible for him to give only one.

"Yes, it's so clear that you can even see the hair on your face."

Watching the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussing the mirror together, Chen Li sat aside and listened quietly. When she got it, she knew they would like it, but she didn't expect them to love it so much.

I don’t know if Lu Jing brought back a larger mirror. If he goes out to sea next time, he can bring back some, and then he won’t have to worry about sales.

Whether you are a lady or a young lady, you will not miss this kind of mirror once you have seen it.

What a pity, I don’t have the formula for the mirror in my mind, and I feel like I have lost a mountain of gold.
