Just as Xiao Yan was about to say something, he heard Zhou Lingling continue to introduce another crop that grew more luxuriantly.

"This is a sweet potato, also called a sweet potato. The tuber is white, red, or yellow, moist and edible. It can be cooked or ground into powder. It tastes like kudzu when eaten raw, and honey when eaten cooked. It also tastes like water chestnuts. It can be harvested in about three months. An acre of land yields dozens of dan, which is about twenty times more than growing grain!"

A strange thought suddenly popped up in Zhou Lingling's mind.

In her world, pigs seem to eat more of this than humans...

I didn't expect that in a different world, I would have to bring these things to the world myself.

She shook her head to get rid of those strange thoughts.

Xiao Yan was silent.

He didn't know what he could say, or what he should say.

"Why...are you telling me this?"

Before, the kid from the Zhou family had guarded this room very strictly. Apart from Zhou Lingling and him, even Chen and Zhou Laoer were not allowed to enter at will.

Although it would have been easy for him to investigate, Xiao Yan did not do so.

Unexpectedly, today, Zhou Lingling actually took the initiative to tell him the "secret" in this room.

What was even more unexpected was that this "secret" was so horrifying.

Throughout the Yuan Dynasty, even in the fertile Jiangnan and southern regions, these high-yield crops had never appeared.

How did Zhou Lingling, who came from a farming family in a remote village, get it?

It's not that he doesn't want to know, but Xiao Yan has a vague feeling that he can't explore it...

Zhou Lingling turned around, no longer with her usual playful smile, but with a serious look.

"Why did I tell you? Maybe I trusted my intuition."

She could feel that he was not an unforgivable villain, nor was he the assassin she had thought he was.

A man who was exiled by his own father, but was able to survive tenaciously and even possessed a powerful force of his own.

Zhou Lingling believes that he will be a good partner.

Yes, she did not believe the magistrate of Yunshui County.

A person who would trade the life-saving grain seeds of the people with Zhou Qianqian, a person who only cared about his own achievements, deliberately concealed the truth in order to be the first to ask for credit from the emperor, and did not care about the lives of the people.

The longer Zhou Lingling came to this world, the fainter her memory of the contents of the book became.

But the amazing thing is that sometimes, in certain specific circumstances, she can always vaguely recall something.

"These three crops I have can all be used as food, and their yields are very impressive. Once the first generation of seeds are grown, I want to promote them, starting with Yunshui County and the Southern Region."

"But if we want to have enough seeds, we must ensure that these crops can grow and be harvested smoothly."

"So, I need land and manpower."

Zhou Lingling looked at the person sitting in the wheelchair and stated her purpose.

To be more precise, what she needs is someone who can protect all her achievements.

Xiao Yan's eyebrows moved slightly, and he agreed without hesitation.

"can."

"But you have to give me half of your seeds. The northern border also needs food."

Northern Xinjiang?

Zhou Lingling was a little surprised.

Although she knew little about this world, she knew that the northern border was the northwest barrier of the Yuan Dynasty.

The one stationed in the northwest now is none other than the current ninth prince.

It was said that the Ninth Prince was arrogant and domineering, relying on his own merits to disregard the imperial court and his sovereign...

and many more.

Ninth Prince?

The Ninth Young Master?

If she remembered correctly, the surname of the Yuan Dynasty seemed to be... Xiao?
