But when the two were expecting Wei Wu to announce the answer, he suddenly picked up the Coke.

Of course, he didn't do this on purpose, he was just thirsty after talking for so long.

After waiting for Wei Wu to finish drinking, Zhu Yuanzhang finally heard the answer he wanted most.

"The potato yield per mu in our time was 3,000 to 5,000 kilograms, depending on the fertility of the soil and the climate."

"According to the Ming Dynasty's weight conversion, it is between 25 and 41 dan." (In the early Ming Dynasty, one dan was set at 120 jin.)

Hiss~! ! !

Even Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang forgot his imperial majesty when he heard about this output.

In front of Wei Wu, he took a deep breath.

Zhu Biao standing by was completely dumbfounded, his mouth was so wide open that an apple could fit in it.

Why does this expression appear?

It's very simple, because the grain yield per mu of land in the Ming Dynasty was only two to three dan.

Converted into kilograms, one acre of land only produces two to three hundred kilograms of grain.

This also depends on the land conditions and climatic conditions. It all depends on God's will.

Wei Wu also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao would be shocked by this.

But he just wanted to see the emperor who started with a bowl and looked naive.

However, just as Wei Wu was laughing in his heart, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly grabbed his neck with both hands.

"You stinky boy, you actually ate such an important grain. You actually ate it for me."

"I'll strangle you to death, you heartless brat! How many people can this save? Is there no meat? Ah! Why are you eating it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook Wei Wu's head as he spoke.

Wei Wu also followed Zhu Yuanzhang's movements, shaking his head back and forth.

Seeing this, Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuxuan hurried forward, one holding Zhu Yuanzhang and the other protecting Wei Wu.

In fact, they were just nervous for no reason. Although Zhu Yuanzhang was pinching Wei Wu, he didn't use any strength at all.

The purpose of doing this is actually just to take the opportunity to vent one's excitement.

After all, as an emperor, he had to maintain his dignity, but the appearance of potatoes really made him unable to remain calm.

On Wei Wu's side, he also sensed Zhu's strength and was fully cooperating.

Zhu Biao immediately noticed this when he tried to stop Zhu Yuanzhang.

Among the four people present, Zhu Yuxuan was probably the only one who was kept in the dark.

When Wei Wu and Zhu Yuanzhang separated, Zhu Yuxuan reached out his hand and rubbed Wei Wu's neck with heartache.

The tender little hand slid across Wei Wu's neck, and he felt so happy!

Before traveling through time, I was a corporate slave, working hard to make a living every day, and I had no time or money to fall in love.

If you really count it, if he confirmed his relationship with Zhu Yuxuan, this could be considered his first love.

After the little farce, Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Wei Wu with his eyes wide open.

He knew that Wei Wu had the ability to capture objects from thin air, and that potatoes must be useful as crops.

In fact, Wei Wu did not disappoint him.

He just stretched out his hand and a large sack of potatoes fell to the ground.

"Uncle Zhu, I didn't count the potatoes in this bag, but there are about fifty or sixty of them, weighing about one stone."

"In today's climate, you just need to soak them in water overnight and then take them out and leave them for a few days."

"Wait for sprouts to grow on the surface, then cut off a small piece of the sprout and use it for planting."

While Wei Wu was speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were fixed on the sack full of mud.

In his eyes, nothing in the world is more precious than it.

Even Zhu Biao, who was standing beside him, had shining eyes and was extremely excited.

Wei Wu continued to explain the information about potatoes.

"The potato growing cycle is not long, about 60 to 90 days, also depending on the soil and environment."

"Uncle Zhu, you can set aside some good farmland to establish an imperial farm, specifically for growing potatoes, to facilitate future promotion."

"The Little Ice Age has just begun, and the climate hasn't had much impact on crops yet. Now is the best time."

"However, when promoting it in the future, we need to explain that sprouted potatoes contain trace amounts of toxins and are best not to eat."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Wei Wu mention the promotion, he suddenly thought of an important issue.

"Xiao Wu, are there any special requirements for storing these potatoes? And how long can they be stored?"

"Under normal circumstances, it can be stored for about a month. If it is in a cold area, it can be stored in a cellar for about six months."

Hearing this answer, the smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face became even wider.

This is simply a godsend for dealing with the Little Ice Age!

But Zhu Yuanzhang was not happy for long when he heard Wei Wu continue to say:

"If potatoes are made into potato flour, it can normally be stored for about three months and is also a good food."

Afterwards, Wei Wu explained again how to make potato flour.

It’s really simple and you can remember it after saying it once.

Just when Wei Wu was having a conversation with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao.

Zhu Yuxuan was looking at him from the side, her beautiful eyes almost blurry.

In later generations, if Wei Wu talked about what he said now with women, he would only be called an idiot, boring, and a lowly man.

But in this era, in the eyes of Zhu Yuxuan who lives in this era, he is shining.

Know a thousand years in the past and five hundred years in the future, know astronomy and astrology, geography and people's livelihood.

This was a fatal attraction for ancient women.

Just when Zhu Yuxuan was in a trance, Zhu Yuanzhang's loud voice suddenly came from the side.

"Wei Wu, your donation of grain will ensure that my Ming Dynasty will never again suffer from famine. Tell me! What reward do you wish from me?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Wu fell silent.

The main reason is that he really doesn't know what he wants, and he really doesn't want to get involved in officialdom.

There are all these old bastards in there, and he thinks he can't beat those old foxes.

In terms of material things, he has a system for eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping, and is completely self-sufficient.

The key is that the emperor’s rewards depend on his will, not on actually letting you speak for what you want.

Seeing Wei Wu silent, Zhu Yuanzhang thought he was just thinking.

In fact, he really wanted to know what Wei Wu wanted, and he was really willing to give it to him.

In addition to the fact that Wei Wu's achievements this time were indeed great, it could also be considered a kind of goodwill test.

From Wei Wu's needs, we can indirectly see what he is more interested in.

However, Wei Wu remained silent. At this moment, something happened to Zhu Yuxuan who was standing next to him.

She was always timid, but she suddenly plucked up the courage and whispered something.

"Master, the family is still short of money. Today, the cook had to buy groceries on credit, and the servants can't even be paid."

"Besides, we don't have any shops or land, and no stable income. If we continue like this, we'll probably run out of money."

After hearing what Zhu Yuxuan said, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao's expressions changed again.

She's not even married yet, and her elbows are already leaning outwards?

On Wei Wu's side, after hearing Zhu Yuxuan's words, he remembered that he was no longer alone.

I used to live alone, and as long as I was well fed, my whole family would not be hungry.

But now the family still has more than 30 servants, and there is also Zhu Yuxuan, the reserved young mistress.

So after Zhu Yuxuan finished speaking, he immediately raised his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, Wei Wu has just arrived in Daming. Apart from that small courtyard, he has no property or savings. I need money!"

"Also, I have another request that I hope Your Majesty can agree to. To me, this matter is more important than money!"
