Chapter 494: Opening a Shop
Two months later.
Beiyang is already covered in snow and ice, and the weather in Kyoto is also getting colder.
At this time, outside Kyoto, the leaves of potatoes planted in farmers' fields had turned yellow.
They were not sure whether they could dig it, so they all ran to the government to ask.
They have never grown this kind of thing before, and they don't dare to do anything about it.
When the Minister of Agriculture heard the news, he went to the fields to check. According to what he had learned in Beiyang, the fields could be dug when the leaves turned yellow.
However, just in case, he still asked the three experienced Chu brothers and Emperor Da'an to come over.
Emperor Da'an knew that the potatoes might be ready to be dug, so he could not sit still. He immediately took the three Chu brothers and the little prince out of the palace and went to the fields.
After just a glance from a distance, Chu Jinzhou said, "Uncle Emperor, these potatoes can be dug! The leaves are all yellow!"
Mumu: "We dug up all the potatoes before their leaves turned yellow like this."
When Emperor Da'an heard this, he ordered people to notify the people and start digging as soon as he arrived at the place.
However, before digging potatoes, everyone learned how to dig potatoes.
The potatoes are too big, and if you don’t dig them properly, you might accidentally damage them, which would be really heartbreaking.
Each village sent people to learn how to dig potatoes. All the people who had potatoes in the fields followed the representatives and learned how to dig potatoes. They all carried hoes and went into the fields.
Everyone was eager to see how many potatoes they could dig out from this acre of land.
Although I only planted one acre of land, I still felt very sad.
Apart from the common people, the most nervous people were the Minister of Agriculture and Emperor Da'an.
The two men sat stiffly at the edge of the field, not saying a word.
Only Chu Jinzhou and his fellow kids didn't care about anything. They sat beside the carriage, leisurely eating spicy beef jerky and cracking spiced melon seeds.
It was so leisurely, as if they were out for a picnic.
While waiting anxiously, suddenly someone shouted in the field.
"Potatoes!! I dug up potatoes!!"
Immediately afterwards, shouts rang out one after another.
"I dug it up too! This potato is bigger than my face!! Hahahaha..."
Emperor Da'an took a shuddering breath, and he and the Minister of Agriculture hurried down to the fields.
When the little guys saw it, they ran over too.
When I arrived at the field where the potatoes had been dug, I saw huge potatoes.
Emperor Da'an pursed his lips, asked someone to bring him a hoe, and then he dug a few times using the correct method.
Looking at the three big potatoes rolling out of the earth hole, his eyes trembled and he continued digging.
After digging a short distance, the potatoes had already formed a small pile.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
The Grand Minister of Agriculture's eyes turned red with excitement and he burst into tears on the spot.
"Your Majesty, the people of Da'an are now well fed! Your Majesty!"
Emperor Da'an couldn't help but smile, "I... I know..."
His heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
He always felt uneasy until he saw the huge potato yield in person. Now that he has seen it, he realizes how inspiring this scene is.
The people dug potatoes with increasing enthusiasm.
"I never expected it! My land is the least fertile of all the fields, yet it can still grow potatoes this big!"
"That's right! I was afraid that the potatoes wouldn't grow well, so I used the worst land in my house!"
"I can't plant in this kind of land next year. I want to plant in the most fertile land!"
The people were talking to each other, and although they felt a little regretful that they had planted in the wrong place, they couldn't stop smiling.
After confirming that the potatoes grown were no different from those grown in Beiyang, Chu Jinzhou and the others felt relieved.
It took two days to dig all the potatoes.
According to statistics, the potato production reached more than 9000 kilograms.
Even the least fertile potatoes can yield at least 8000 kilograms.
Although it is not as terrible as ten thousand kilograms, it is normal for the crops to be different due to the different geographical environments.
It is already remarkable to be able to achieve such a production volume.
Emperor Da'an and the Minister of Agriculture were very satisfied, and the people were even more satisfied.
Of all the potatoes that were collected, except for 200 kilograms left for each household as seeds, the rest were taken to the government granary.
All these potatoes will be used as seeds for next year and distributed to more people.
The potatoes that the people had grown with so much effort were taken away by the government, but they didn't say anything, after all, it was agreed upon before they planted them.
The government also subsidized five taels of silver to every household that grew potatoes, which made the people more understanding.
Anyway, no matter how many potatoes they grow next year, they will belong to them.
This time, I can earn five taels of silver for one acre of land, which is already good.
There was a bumper potato harvest and Emperor Da'an was in a good mood.
He couldn't help but come to Anning Palace.
Today, the little ones have a day off and don’t have to go to school, so everyone is preparing more stinky tofu.
Their business has been getting more and more successful during this period.
They also made a lot of money. The little guys roughly calculated that they had made at least seventy or eighty taels.
"What are you doing?"
Emperor Da'an came in, saw them busy, and asked a few questions.
"Uncle Emperor, we are making stinky tofu! Please don't be polite, just find a place to sit."
The little guy didn't even raise his head.
Emperor Da'an didn't care.
"Do you guys want anything? Tell me and I'll give it to you. There's a bumper potato harvest, and you've contributed to that, too."
The little ones all raised their heads.
"We have also made contributions? Can we get any reward?"
The little guys will not refuse now. After all, they are indeed helping with the guidance, and they deserve whatever His Majesty gives them.
"I mean what I say."
The little guys looked at each other.
Soon, Chu Jinnian hugged the legs of Emperor Da'an, "Uncle Emperor, our business is so good, but winter is coming and it will be very cold, so we plan to rent a store. Do you know a big boss who owns a store at home? Can you find one for us?"
Emperor Da'an raised his eyebrows, "Oh, your small business has grown so big? You've even started a store."
The little girl had a red face and felt happy but a little embarrassed.
Even the young prince felt embarrassed, as he was in partnership with these good friends.
But he didn't even know they were going to open the shop. It must have been because he didn't come last night and they made this decision at the last minute.
Thinking of the several shops his uncle had given him, the little prince said quickly: "Niannian! I have it! I have several shops!"
"Father, can I use my shop to open a store?"
Emperor Da'an nodded and said, "Just make your own decision. If there is no suitable shop, I will find one for you."
"My shop is very suitable, I have seen it!"
When his uncle gave him the shop, he followed his uncle to take a look around. The location of the shop was very busy and large, and it could be used to sell anything.
