Chapter 485 The potatoes are all collected
"Little man, are you serious? Are these potatoes really as good as you say?"
Some people still can't believe it.
Chu Jinzhou sighed and dragged out a small backpack they had carried with them from under the table.
I showed them the potatoes in the basket, each one bigger than a palm, and said, "Look."
Everyone hurriedly looked towards his basket and were surprised and confused when they saw the potatoes in it.
"What is this thing? Why is it so big?"
Someone bravely picked up one and weighed it, "Oh my! This one must weigh two kilograms!"
"what is this?"
Chu Jinnian: "This is potato!"
Everyone's eyes widened.
"The potatoes we dig up from the fields are almost all this size. The smallest one is half the size of a palm, so the yield is so high."
Everyone gradually believed it.
"So, you should quickly go to the government, and ask His Majesty to send you potato seeds! If you delay any longer, you won't be able to plant them this year!"
At this time, someone in the crowd hesitated and said, "These...these potatoes seem to be the food that the government posted a notice a few days ago saying they would be given to everyone for free, right?"
When these words came out, everyone was stunned.
They didn't take it seriously at the time. Who knew what it would look like if they grew a crop they had never heard of? Who would dare to gamble with their own fertile land?
But now... everyone regrets it.
"It's over. I didn't want to come at that time. I said I would never plant it..."
"me too!"
"What can we do?"
The little ones were listening with their ears perked up nearby.
"What?! Has His Majesty already distributed it to you? Is it that you don't want to plant it?" Chu Jinnian's eyes widened.
Everyone hesitated, but nodded.
Chu Jinnian showed a look of disgust on his face, "I have never seen people as stupid as you. You don't even want such a good thing... Tsk tsk tsk..."
Mumu: "It's a good thing that His Majesty sent someone to ask our county magistrate for seeds in such a hurry."
This time, everyone really couldn't stand it anymore.
"No, I have to ask the government again! I want to ask if I can still get the seeds!"
"Wait for me, I'll go too!"
The landlord who asked the question earlier also hurried to the government office.
Except for the people doing business in the city, all the people who had gathered there and owned land at home had run away.
Even the people who were watching the fun nearby followed.
All of a sudden the stalls were empty.
The little guys looked at each other quietly and narrowed their eyes.
The little prince had been listening for a long time without having a chance to get a word in. Now he was looking at them with admiration on his face.
This is amazing. Just by saying a few words, everyone was scrambling to get the seeds to plant.
The emperor and empress, who were secretly observing, looked at each other in shock.
On the other side, the people had already arrived at the farm to receive potato seeds.
The officials on duty were stunned when they saw so many people flocking in.
I thought he was here to cause trouble.
"Mr. Official! Are you still going to send us the potatoes you mentioned two days ago?"
“How many kilograms can a family receive?”
"Can we get it now? If we delay any further, we won't be able to plant the second season."
"Sir, please say something..."
The people's urgency made the officials even more confused.
It’s really strange. Two days ago, they said they didn’t want any seeds at all, but why are they scrambling for them now?
Could it be that someone has drugged them?
"Don't be anxious, everyone! Listen to me first!"
There were a lot of people coming, and the officials had to shout several times before everyone quieted down.
"We have a limited amount of potato seeds, and there are many people. Each household will get 200 kilograms, and we will distribute them until they are all gone."
Each family only has 200 kilograms. I heard that there are only 200 million kilograms of this kind of seeds in total, but how many people are there?
"Master! I want it, I want it! 200 pounds is 200 pounds!"
"I want one too! Since we're here, give it to us first!"
"Stop making noise!"
The official continued, "You must plant these 200 kilograms of potatoes. If you don't plant them, you will be beheaded."
The people were stunned for a moment, but then they thought about it and realized it was nothing.
"We have to plant the seeds. What's the big deal? Please send them to us as soon as possible."
"Also, when you plant these seeds in the ground and harvest them, you can't eat them. You have to sell the new potatoes to us."
Seeing everyone's expression change, the official hurriedly explained, "There are limited potato seeds. Your Majesty hopes that all the people in the world can plant them. He hopes that all the people will no longer suffer from hunger. You are the people of our capital. As the first group to plant potatoes, you should consider the whole world."
"Besides, each family can only produce 200 kilograms of potatoes, which doesn't really cover a lot of land. Of course, after the potatoes are harvested, we will leave you seeds for planting next year."
What the officials said makes sense, and the people are not unreasonable. If you think about it carefully, this is the truth.
Da'an has a vast territory and a large population. If they want to distribute seeds to all the people, how many seeds would they need?
How can 100 million jin be enough? We must harvest several crops.
And they were the first batch.
So everyone understood.
"Sir, I will listen to you, don't worry."
"Yes, yes, as long as you leave enough seeds for us next year, we will sell the rest to you!"
The officials breathed a sigh of relief and immediately asked them to come with their household registration documents to collect the seeds.
Everyone ran back home quickly.
The seeds are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis, so whoever gets home first will immediately start notifying the village.
Everyone in a village knows each other and everyone believes what they say.
So many people would come with one person from an entire village, and there would be a long queue in front of the farm gate before noon.
It stretches across two streets.
When he returned to the palace and saw the queuing scene, Emperor Da'an smiled with satisfaction. These little guys really solved his urgent problem.
All the potatoes were distributed, and officials went to the countryside to inspect and sent people to teach how to grow them.
After selling potatoes for a day, the little guys still left the palace the next day.
They want more people to know how to eat potatoes.
Chu Jinzhou was selling wolf-tooth potatoes, while Chu Jinnian and others were standing next to him explaining to the people how else potatoes could be eaten.
"There are so many ways to eat potatoes! You can boil them, roast them, or stew them with meat. They become soft and delicious!"
"You can also cut the potatoes into shreds and fry them in oil. Oh! They are also very fragrant!"
……
Chu Jinnian was such a talkative person that the people kept laughing as they listened to him, but they also listened attentively.
"However, potatoes are delicious, but you must remember not to eat sprouted potatoes, as they are a little bit poisonous."
Finally, the little guy reminded.
The people immediately perked up, this is an important thing.
"Then...will that kill people? How can it be poisonous?"
Mumu waved his hand. "We all in Beiyang are eating it, and we haven't seen anyone have any problems. Just don't eat the sprouted ones. You can save the sprouted ones for planting."
The people then breathed a sigh of relief.
