Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the mid-autumn Festival, many crops could be harvested. In this season, most of the families in Shifeng County had planted high-yield grain. This was also their most exciting year. When they thought that their families could also plant more than 2,000 catties of grain per acre. They could even wake up from a dream with a smile.

When the announcement that the county office could be excavated was made, everyone ran home excitedly. They picked up their own hoes and could not wait to run into the ground. With a swing of the hoe, a fat, and big potato was revealed, they were so excited that they were about to cry.

“It’s really high-yield grain! It’s true!”

Even though they had seen the people of Jian Family Village dig it out with their own eyes before, they still could not believe it when it was not in their hands. Now that the high-yield grain was finally dug out from their hands, everyone was extremely excited.

Ming Zhiyan had ordered the village chiefs of each village to do a good job of harvesting the high-yield grain and to calculate all the data. Moreover, each village sent people who could read to do these statistical actions.

This time, it could be said that the entire Shifeng County was mobilized. There were not many people who could read in the county office. Ming Zhiyan gathered the students from the school and mobilized them to go to the countryside to do a good job of the high-yield grain statistics.

Because this high-yield grain was an unprecedented event in Shifeng County, there was no need to persuade them. Every student was proud of being able to go to the countryside to contribute to the high-yield grain statistics.

Because the people of the county were very enthusiastic about high-yield grain, the harvest speed was also extremely fast. In a few days, almost all the grain was collected, and all the data was sent to Ming Zhiyan, it was piled up on a table.

He ordered people to organize all the data and order it into a book. Then, he sent one to the Emperor in the Capital, and he kept the other for Jian Qingqing to read.

When they reached the village, Jian Qingqing was trying to memorize a medical book.

When she saw Ming Zhiyan, her eyes lit up. She quickly threw down the book in her hand and ran out to bring him to the central room. “Come and sit!”

Ming Zhiyan sat down and handed the book to her. “Take a look. This is the statistics of the high-yield grain in the entire county.”

Jian Qingqing flipped it open and read it carefully. Her brows relaxed and furrowed at times.

At this moment, Mother Jian brought in a pot of tea and poured Ming Zhiyan a cup. She smiled and said, “Sir Ming, have some tea.”

Ming Zhiyan took it and said, “Thank you, Auntie.”

Mother Jian smiled but did not leave. Instead, she sat down.

After Jian Qingqing finished reading, she was about to say something when she saw her mother sitting there. She was stunned and asked in surprise, “Mother, when did you come?”

“I just came. It’s fine. You guys just talk about your stuff. I want to hear it too.”

Jian Qingqing did not think too much and spoke about what she was about to say, “Sweet potatoes still need to grow better in the sand. Both corn and potatoes need fertile land. If the soil isn’t good enough, they will grow smaller and the yield will not be too high. They also need the later stage of fertility to keep up. Otherwise, they won’t grow well.

“So I think we can let them grow according to the situation. If it’s in the sand, then we’ll plant sweet potatoes and fertilize the land with corn. The potatoes don’t seem to grow very well in the summer. The yield will be higher in the spring, and it’s also good to plant them in the winter. We just need to keep them warm, so we can let them grow according to the situation in the future.”

“Also, these high-yielding grains can not be eaten as staple food every day. We still need to plant rice and wheat. We can just plant them on dry land, and use the paddy fields to grow other things.”

“Corn and potatoes can be eaten as vegetables, or occasionally as staple food. If you want to use them as staple food every day, you still need to make them into flour, like flour, to make noodles. This is healthier..
