Everyone rested for more than an hour, until the sun was not so strong, Chu Changfeng allowed everyone to go out.

Some people carried hoes, and some people carried backpacks.

A group of little kids followed the adults happily, carrying baskets.

After entering the field, the experienced old man first measured the area of ​​one mu of land, dug up the potatoes and then weighed them.

The final calculated yield per mu actually reached 9500 jin! !

This calculation is actually not very accurate. After all, the yield of each piece of land is different. One piece is lower, and another piece is higher. On average, the yield per mu is really over 10,000 kilograms.

Everyone was shocked.

They couldn't believe this was actually happening.

In the past, when they grew rice, the yield per mu was only four or five hundred kilograms, which was considered a good harvest.

If there is drought or flood in a certain year, the output will be greatly reduced.

In the end, it might only be two or three hundred kilograms.

The adults didn't speak for a long time. Only the little children who went to the fields were chattering as they picked potatoes and carried them into their backpacks in baskets.

Chu Changfeng: "Everyone, don't just stand there, you look like you have never seen the world."

"Boss, I feel like I'm dreaming. How is it possible to have a grain yield of tens of thousands of kilograms per mu? This is clearly a foolish dream! No! It's a daydream!"

"I don't believe it either, but we weighed it ourselves and it turns out to be that much."

Someone responded.

Everyone looked at the endless potato fields and their hearts were beating fast.

Only 100 mu of land can produce 100 million kilograms of potatoes...

Everyone was stunned for a long time before continuing to dig.

Because the little kids had picked up all the potatoes, they all started to urge them to move on.

"Grandpa, why don't you dig? If you don't dig, we won't have anything to pick up!"

"Yeah, yeah! We're really good at picking potatoes! You better dig faster!"

Everyone was amused by them and started digging.

Although we rested for an hour at noon, it is still very hot.

It didn't take long for everyone to start digging and they were sweating all over.

Shen Zhi waved to Chu Changfeng.

Chu Changfeng walked beside her, "What's wrong?"

"Come with me and get some sour plum soup. The weather is too hot. Now is the perfect time to drink some sour plum soup to cool down."

Chu Changfeng's eyes lit up, "Okay!"

The two came to the cabin, and Shen Zhi took out several wooden barrels of sour plum soup from the space.

This sour plum soup has been kept in spring water and is now cool.

Chu Changfeng couldn't wait to scoop a bowl and start drinking it.

It is refreshing and icy, and it tastes so good after drinking it.

"Zhizhi, give me another bowl!"

Shen Zhi smiled and poured him another bowl.

Chu Changfeng drank three bowls in a row, and Shen Zhi also drank a bowl before they carried the sour plum soup into the ground.

It took the two of them two trips to finally carry all the sour plum soup into the field.

"Everyone, stop for a moment! Come over here and drink some sour plum soup! Let it cool down before you dig!"

Shen Zhi shouted, and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at them curiously.

"Sour plum soup? Made by the boss's wife?"

"There are so many of us, how long will it take us to get through this?"

Shen Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone can get at least one bowl, come and have a drink!"

Everyone put down their hoes and walked over.

There aren't that many bowls, so only one group of people can drink.

After drinking, pass the bowl to the next group of people.

After drinking the cool sour plum soup, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

"This sour plum soup is so delicious! After drinking it, I feel full of energy!"

"The key is that the sour plum soup is cold. I'm afraid it won't be that cool if it's placed in well water, right?"

Those who finished drinking first went back into the field, and it was not until all the adults had finished drinking that it was the little ones' turn.

They could no longer control themselves and stared at the scene for a long time.

However, because they didn't want to waste the adults' time, they let the adults drink first.

Chu Changfeng gave them some sour plum soup.

There was still a lot of sour plum soup left. There were more than a dozen children in total, and each of them could probably drink two bowls, which could be considered a reward for these children for waiting so obediently.

After drinking two bowls of sour plum soup, they continued to pick potatoes contentedly.

Chu Changfeng went to help in the fields, while Shen Zhi carried all the wooden barrels back to the cabin.

When we got to the house, the little girl, who had been sleeping for the whole afternoon, woke up and was waving her little hands and looking around.

Shen Zhi quickly picked her up and said, "My dear, when did you wake up? You didn't cry. You are such a good child."

Shen Zhi fed her milk, and the little girl was very happy.

Shen Zhi carried him to the door. The cottage was built in the middle of the field. Sitting at the door, one could see green everywhere.

Little Tuanzi looked at a group of people busy in the fields. She stretched out her little finger and pointed, her little body jumping around, wanting Shen Zhi to see.

"Mom saw them. They were helping us dig potatoes."

"what……"

The little guy tilted his head, as if wondering what potatoes are?

Shen Zhi kissed her little forehead and said, "When you grow up, you can eat it."

"what……"

The little girl didn't understand, but that didn't affect her excitement.

The baby is more than six months old and is now full of energy.

And now she has grown heavy, and Shen Zhi feels heavy in his arms when he hugs her every day.

Fortunately, whenever Chu Changfeng returned home, he would take over the job of holding the little ball, and he would not let go even when it was time to go to bed.

Everyone was busy in the fields until the evening, when it was almost dark. They squatted in the fields, picking potatoes and chatting excitedly.

It’s not lively.

Shen Zhi went to the vegetable garden and picked a lot of cucumbers, eggplants and peppers.

For dinner, I cooked with the women.

The weather was hot and I didn't do anything special.

Shen Zhi made a pot of cold cucumber salad and a pot of roasted pepper eggplant.

Others helped stir-fry green peppers and potato shreds, and finally cooked a few pots of porridge.

These dishes taste refreshing. Shredded pork is added to the green pepper and potato shreds, and there is plenty of oil and water.

After everyone came back and ate the food, they felt that the whole day's busyness was worth it.

If I could eat such delicious food every day, I would even dig potatoes every day!

Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi finished their dinner here, and asked them to watch over the warehouse at night before driving away in the carriage.

On the way back, Shen Zhi held Xiaotuanzi and sat next to Chu Changfeng, driving together.

The cool breeze blowing on my face is very comfortable.

"Zhizhi, don't come tomorrow. It's so hot, how can you bear it?"

Shen Zhi was helpless. "I didn't do anything at all. I was in the room with Huanhuan the whole time. I just helped to cook two dishes. Look, how happy they were eating."

"Then you are not allowed to come tomorrow. You just dig potatoes every day. Why do you have to suffer this?"

"We'll see tomorrow."

Chu Changfeng nodded. "By the way, now that we have collected so many potatoes, what should we do?"

They just don't have enough potatoes in their stores.

Most of the potatoes have to be sold or sold to others for seed.

But the potato yield is so high that they can’t be sold casually.

"Don't worry, I promise someone will come to see you before all the potatoes are dug."
