Quick Wear: The female supporting role makes a comeback by giving birth to a child
Chapter 235: Red Mansion: I am Baochai’s wet nurse (16)
Bag after bag filled with rice were hung on the scale.
Two people lift together, and several people count.
Yanxingjing also asked students to count and calculate on their own.
Half an hour passed.
The rice from the three acres of land was weighed.
After everyone made some calculations, they couldn't help but look around.
"Brother Yu, have you figured it out? I think I calculated it wrong. But I calculated it several times and it's the same number. I'm afraid I remembered it wrong somewhere. Brother Yu, can you let me see your previous calculation?"
"Brother Xu, did you make a mistake too? Me too."
"Huh? I calculated wrongly too."
"Come on, let's check the numbers first. Brother Yu is the best at math, so how come he made the same mistake as us?"
A group of students were whispering to each other.
But in the end, they found that there was basically no difference in the counts. Except for a few who were indeed wrong, the rest of them seemed...
Not wrong?!
"How can it be?!"
"What's going on?" Seeing the students' voices getting louder and louder, Yan Xingjing frowned in dissatisfaction.
The students didn't care about anything else at this time and hurriedly gathered around:
"Sir, did you report the wrong number when you weighed it just now? The results we calculated are all wrong."
Yan Xingjing reached out and took the paper they were counting on and took a look at it:
"That's right. The number on the scale was checked by me and the other gentleman."
"Can……"
"Master, the results are out."
On the other side, the manager also took a few accountants to calculate several times before reporting back with the final result.
His face was full of excitement, and there was a hint of respect in his eyes as he looked at Xue Baochai.
Xue Baochai smiled, and was somewhat expectant: "How is it?"
The steward grinned: "Two thousand five hundred and eighty-three pounds!"
When this number came out, the students fell silent.
Because the number they just calculated was also this one.
"Impossible! By this calculation, the yield per mu of land is more than 800 kilograms. How is that possible?! The yield of rice per mu is only 500 to 600 kilograms!"
"You must have remembered it wrongly. This is probably the output of four acres of land, right?"
The students were all shocked, and their first reaction was disbelief.
Yan Xingjing looked at the excited manager and had some vague guesses in his mind.
Looking at Xue Baochai again, although she tried her best to remain calm, she also had a happy expression on her face, and she began to have a plan in her mind.
"This is indeed the output of three mu of land! There is no mistake. This year's rice ears are fuller than in previous years, so this output is expected."
In fact, any experienced farmer can have a rough idea of what a rice field looks like when he sees it for the first time.
For these students, rice is something they have seen before, but the rice harvest is just a number in a book.
They couldn't put the number into concrete terms.
Therefore, even when they saw the plump ears of rice, they could not get excited. They just thought that rice was just like that.
"How is this possible? But doesn't the book say that the best rice harvest is only 647 kilograms? Most of the time, it's around 500 kilograms! This 800-plus kilograms..."
"That's too exaggerated!" another student said.
There was an immediate chorus of approval.
Baochai smiled and said to everyone:
"If you don't believe me, there are still a few acres of rice that have not been harvested. You can check it out for yourself."
As soon as these words came out, the students looked at the teacher.
Yan Xingjing also wanted to verify it and nodded slightly.
Li Ning was walking in the crowd and couldn't help but look back at the girl who was chatting and laughing freely.
The sun was shining brightly on her fair face, and for a moment, her heart seemed to be out of control.
After everyone left, Baochai did not follow them.
Today's matter is over, and she doesn't need to show up in person for the rest.
After going back to wash up and having the nanny take care of her little face, Baochai finally had a rest.
Xing Guoguo was lying on the recliner outside and couldn't help but sigh:
"As expected of a little girl like me, look at how generous and calm she was just now, wow!"
"Meow~" Host, you are so shameless! It is obvious that Baochai is excellent!
Since entering the farm, the little fur ball turned into a kitten and came over.
At this moment, it was all over Xing Guoguo's body.
Hearing this, he licked his little paw.
Xin Guoguo ruffled its newly trimmed fur.
Looking at the little guy's angry face, I couldn't help but laugh.
"Meow~" Host, you are so childish!
嘤嘤嘤(┯_┯)
It's time to lick the fur again!
So annoying!
Its beautiful fur must not be messed up!
Bang Chi Bang Chi!

Different from the leisurely days of the master and servant, the students are now working under the scorching sun, sweating profusely.
They even spontaneously lined up in a long queue, from the field to the threshing floor, with one person standing every one meter.
They even called their own servants and page boys.
The main point is full participation.
Under such strict surveillance, all the farmers could not help but become cautious, for fear of accidentally offending these nobles.
But fortunately, they have many people.
It would be enough to just harvest those four acres of land.
After two hours of hard work, when the final results were tallied, no one could remain calm anymore.
"Three thousand four hundred and ninety-seven pounds?!"
After hearing this result, Yan Xingjing almost couldn't hold the teacup in his hand.
All together, the yield per mu is even greater than the previous three mu of land!
Yan Zhiting has returned now.
He stood in front of his uncle along with other students:
"Uncle, that's right. We counted it several times."
Yanxingjing could no longer remain calm.
He walked back and forth with his hands behind his back. After a while, he stopped and looked around:
"Everyone go and rest. Zhiting, Li Ning and Xue Pan stay."
The rest of the people bowed and left.
Xue Pan called the person in charge and arranged for these people to rest and have a meal.
After everyone had left, Yan Xingjing bowed and said, "Your Highness, what do you think?"
Li Ning said seriously: "This matter must be reported to the emperor."
Xue Pan seemed to have just learned about Li Ning's identity and hurriedly bowed:
"You are the Crown Prince? I was rude to you before, please forgive me, Your Highness."
Li Ning waved his hand: "It's okay."
Not to mention that there was nothing to worry about, even if there was, now with this high-yield rice and..., he would not do anything to Xue Pan.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Mr. Xue, could you please tell me why your rice has such a high yield?"
Xue Pan scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed:
"Your Highness, Sir, I don't know. This farm was originally bought by my sister with her own private money. I only heard that some improvements seemed to have been made, but I never asked about it."
Several people were a little surprised.
"This was actually done by Miss Xue?!" An ambiguous look flashed across Li Ning's eyes.
Yan Zhiting glanced at him and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xue Pan didn't notice and nodded.
Several people looked at each other in confusion for a moment.
"Can you ask Miss Xue to come out and see me?" Li Ning asked in an urgent tone.
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the other people changed.
Xue Pan's face turned red and he wanted to get angry, but he had to endure it because of the other party's status.
Li Ning also realized that his words were too abrupt, but because of his noble status, he did not take it seriously.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Yan Xingjing sighed inwardly and quickly spoke to ease the tension:
"Ms. Xue is a woman, so it may not be convenient for her to meet us alone. However, this matter is of great importance, so please ask Xue to send someone to pass on the message."
