When Qu Qiuning said that the potatoes were edible, everyone tried them and found them to be very delicious, soft and sticky, suitable for both children and the elderly.

When Qu Qiuning saw everyone's expressions, he knew that this potato had conquered everyone's hearts.

"These potatoes can not only be used for cooking, but also made into potato pancakes. They can be fried, boiled, or baked."

Qu Qiuning explained to everyone.

Fu Yicheng asked quickly, "I wonder which one has a higher yield, potatoes or wheat?"

"Of course it's potatoes. With a hundred zhang of fertile land, we can at least harvest a thousand kilograms."

Qu Qiuning said very confidently that the one thousand kilograms she mentioned was a conservative figure, and the actual number was more than that.

After listening to Qu Qiuning's explanation, Fuyi City realized that if one planted wheat on a hundred zhang fertile land, the yield would only be over a hundred kilograms, and that would require no natural disasters to yield that much.

Potatoes are several times more valuable than wheat. If this were the case, people would never have to worry about starving!

"Okay, okay, let's discuss it after dinner." Fu Yicheng smiled from ear to ear.

Soon the rice and vegetables were all eaten up, and even the hot pot soup was used to mix with the rice.

Ah Wu envied An Ye and the others because they could often eat delicious food, although they usually had no requirements for food, as long as they were full.

But when you come across something so delicious, who can resist the temptation of this delicious food?

In the reception hall, Fu Yicheng stood in the middle, rubbing his stomach with one hand. It seemed that he had eaten a little too much tonight.

"Miss Qu, what are your conditions for growing potatoes? You may as well tell us so that we can discuss it together."

Fu Yicheng said straight to the point.

“Well, there are two options.

First, I sell seeds to you.

Second, I will provide you with seeds, and after the harvest, we will split the profits 50-50.

You can think about it first, or discuss it and see which one you choose.

I sell these potato seeds by the pound, and one pound is five taels of silver."

After Qu Qiuning finished speaking, Fu Yicheng felt a little embarrassed and asked General Su Xiong and the military advisor to go aside to discuss.

After a while, the result of the discussion came out.

"Miss Qu, we have decided to choose the second option." Fu Yicheng said.

They made this choice because they did not have much silver, and secondly, the capital had not paid the military salaries for a long time.

"Okay, we need to write a contract to put this plan in writing."

"it is good,"

Soon, the contract was written, and after both parties had no objections, they put their fingerprints on it, and the matter was settled.

"Girl, how do you think this planting method and seeds work?"

"No hurry, Your Highness, you can first check how much good land needs to be planted, and then send someone to me to get the seeds and learn the planting methods."

"Okay, okay," Fu Yicheng smiled and looked at the woman in front of him with obsession.

She is so mysterious. Who is she? How can she be so capable? Why haven't I heard of her before?

Because it was dark, Fu Yicheng suggested staying at Qu Qiuning's house to rest.

Qu Qiuning had no choice but to agree. After all, he was a prince, so he had to give him some face.

Early the next morning, Fu Yicheng bid farewell to Qu Qiuning and rushed to the military camp.

On this day, An Ye also went to the pawnshop and bought a few people, two old women and three little girls.

And they were all death contracts. After Qu Qiuning's inspection, these people were relatively honest.

Just keep it and observe for a while, and replace it if it doesn't work.

On the third day, at dawn, Qu Qiuning woke Jing Xu and Qu Xinglan up.

He took the two of them and started running in the yard. When they heard the noise, they stood up automatically and ran with Qu Qiuning.

Before the training was over, Fu Yicheng came with his men, saying that they were here to learn how to grow potatoes from Qu Qiuning.

Qu Qiuning didn't say anything more. He took out the potatoes, cut them into big pieces in front of Fu Yicheng, and then wrapped them in wood ash.

Then I took them to the backyard, dug trenches, and estimated the distance.

Dig a hole, put in farm manure, then put in potato pieces wrapped in wood ash, cover with soil, and you're done.

Based on the approximate planting area reported by Fuyi City, Qu Qiuning gave him five cartloads of potato seeds.

A few days later, Fuyi City sent guards to bring a message saying that the potatoes had been planted and asked Qu Qiuning not to worry.

Qu Qiuning really wasn't worried at all. After all, she had unlimited space to acquire, so she wasn't in a hurry at all.

Qu Qiuning spent two relaxing days leisurely.

On the third day, a guard from Fu Yicheng handed Qu Qiuning a letter written by Fu Yicheng himself.

But before Qu Qiuning had time to read the contents of the letter, her house was surrounded by soldiers.

It seemed that everyone was carrying a bow and arrow, and the arrows were aimed at Qu Qiuning.

They also captured Pang Ya and Qu Xinglan, and put a big knife on their necks.

The leader spoke up:

"I am Xue Hao, the commander of the Imperial Guards. I am following the king's orders to capture this evil woman who has brought disaster to the country.

No one is allowed to move, or I will kill them both." Qu Qiuning looked at the man who claimed to be the leader. From what he said, did he mean that she was a witch?

Or was it the king's order? Haha, this king must be not smart enough to deal with her.

She said so! The royal family is the most ruthless. No matter whether you are right or wrong, if they want to kill you, they have plenty of ways to do it.

Qu Qiuning glanced around and saw that the roofs were full of archers, surrounding the entire house.

It is estimated that there are as many as five thousand people. This is too much of a compliment to him, haha!

Moreover, it is not easy to capture Pang Ya and Qu Xinglan even with the presence of An Ye and others.

Afterwards, An Ye and the others were escorted from different directions of the yard and walked in front of Qu Qiuning with bows and arrows.

Qin Haoyuan and Bikong were also taken out.

Qin Haoyuan stood up and said to Xue Hao:

"I am Qin Haoyuan, from a family of medicine in the capital, and my grandfather is Qin Ge."

But there was no fluctuation in Xue Hao's eyes. The order given to him by King Fu Yaotian was that no one related to the witch should be let go.

"Hey, brat, do you know who I am? I'm Fu Yaotian's second uncle. How dare you arrest me?"

Bi Kong took out the jade pendant and held it in his hand, showing it to Xue Hao.

Xue Hao glanced at Bikong and rolled his eyes.

"Where did you come from, you crazy monk? If you keep talking nonsense or say any more, I will shoot you into a hornet's nest."

Xue Hao's tone was filled with disdain. This era was so chaotic that even old monks were out cheating and deceiving people.

"You, you..." Bi Qi's eyes widened, but he could do nothing.

Song Yanfeng and Ah Si were also escorted out of the backyard by a large group of archers.

After a few days of rest, Song Yanfeng was able to walk on his own. His long black hair reached his waist and he looked even more charming in a white undershirt.

Song Yanfeng walked to Qu Qiuning's side and said softly, "Aning, I'm here!"

From the tone of his voice, Qu Qiuning knew he was planning to force his way in.

Qu Qiuning shook her head slightly, signaling him not to mess around.

If we force our way in, it would be a foolish act of killing one thousand enemies but losing eight hundred of our own.

She wouldn't do that, because then those among them who didn't know martial arts might be killed by the arrows.
