Become a founding empress in ancient times with the system
Chapter 5: Distributing Potatoes
"It's true. How many people are there in our Guangping County?" Sheng Changan sighed as he looked at his excited face.
If he hadn't come and the original owner had died again, the county would have sent someone else over, but he didn't know whether the new county magistrate would be good or not. That was why he hoped the original owner was alive.
County Magistrate Wu's face suddenly turned ugly, and his tone was sad: "There should be more than 3,000." The original population of more than 10,000 was now only this many.
More than three thousand, but these potatoes are still not enough! I can only hope that I can sign out some rewards tomorrow. Sheng Changan frowned and said, "Distribute these potatoes and teach them how to plant them. One potato can be divided into four pieces, and one piece can grow five or six potatoes."
After thinking for a while, he briefly explained the planting methods he knew and said, "You can handle the rest. The people should know more about this than me. If they don't believe it..." Sheng Changan was speechless. It would probably be difficult to persuade them to give up their own food to grow this new thing.
"Don't worry, sir, they will agree." Wu Xiancheng pointed to the pile of potatoes with some impatience and embarrassment. "Well, sir..."
Sheng Changan smiled and said, "You can take it! But you probably can't carry so much by yourself. It's better to find someone to help you." It would be bad if she sprained her waist when she was old, and she didn't have many people who could help her.
County Magistrate Wu laughed heartily: "My lord, don't worry. I look old, but I'm actually only in my forties. I can just carry the potatoes back and forth a few times." After saying that, he took the basket that Changqing had found at some point and put the potatoes in it. "Changqing, take a few and ask your Aunt Wu to cook them for you."
"No need. The yield of these potatoes is quite high. One can grow many. Plant them first. There may be more tomorrow. We'll talk about it then." Sheng Changan waved her hand quickly. With more than 3,000 people, she had to make sure her people had enough to eat.
County Magistrate Wu looked over in surprise: "Is it still potatoes tomorrow?"
Sheng Changan smiled mysteriously: "This! Keep it secret, we'll talk about it tomorrow." After that, she was about to support her fragile body and go back. Seeing this, Changqing immediately came up and supported Sheng Changan.
Wu Xiancheng looked at Sheng Changan's receding back and then stretched out his trembling hand to touch the potatoes in his hand. "It can produce a thousand kilograms!" It would be great if the adults showed up earlier.
At least the remaining people could survive. County Magistrate Wu picked up the potatoes in his hand and prepared to go out. At this moment, his originally hunched figure straightened up.
Sheng Changan looked at Changqing helping her clean up the collapsed stool on the ground, feeling a little ashamed. She really looked like a cripple now. "Changqing, no need to clean it up. I can do it myself later."
Chang Qing said seriously: "My lord, you should rest now. I, the slave, will clean it up."
Before he could correct Chang Qing's address, he had already run away. Sheng Changan probably guessed that Wu Xiancheng must have given him some instructions, so he could only ask next time: "Xiao Liu, besides signing in, are there any other rewards?"
"You can get rewards after harvesting potatoes"
The task of harvesting 1,000 kilograms of potatoes immediately appeared on the system screen. This should not be difficult to achieve as the potato yield is relatively high.
Sheng Changan touched his head and suddenly didn't dare to think about it anymore. At least the most urgent thing is to take care of your body, but you still have to eat well! Otherwise, lying down for a long time will be in vain. Touching his stomach, he can only hope to sign in tomorrow to get something good.
