Chapter 151 Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes (2)

"What? 1,000 catties per mu?"

Shopkeeper Yang's voice suddenly rose eight octaves, startling the waiters next to him and making them look sideways.

This shout scared Wang Xiangdong so much that he looked at Manager Yang in confusion, wondering if he had said something wrong.

He wasn't wrong, was he? He deliberately underestimated the production figures!

You know, in that world, yielding 10,000 kilograms per mu is not a myth or legend.

When he was a child, his family grew sweet potatoes, and at that time they produced tens of thousands of pounds of sweet potatoes!

Now with the development of agricultural technology, various crop varieties are constantly being improved and optimized, coupled with scientific cultivation and planting methods, you would be embarrassed to say that the yield is less than ten thousand kilograms.

However, considering the limited acceptance capacity of the people here, he did not dare to say too much, so he reluctantly said a figure of about 1,800 kilograms.

Unexpectedly, even so, Manager Yang was still scared.

Shopkeeper Yang quickly lowered his voice and asked nervously, "Wang, Guard Wang, is what you just said true? Did I hear correctly?"

Wang Xiangdong looked around and replied in a low voice, "Of course it's true! But don't tell anyone. If you want to know if you can produce a thousand kilograms, you can try to see if you can succeed."

Shopkeeper Yang nodded repeatedly, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

If they could really achieve a yield of 1,000 kilograms per mu, it would be an immeasurable fortune for their Yang family, no, for the entire provincial capital, and even for the entire Great Zhou.

Oh, I’m rich!

Get rich!

There was a voice in Shopkeeper Yang's heart that was secretly delighted.

Shopkeeper Yang said quickly, "Don't tell anyone. Absolutely not. We won't tell anyone until it's grown."

And it has to be cultivated in secret.

He didn't say the latter sentence, and he could only say this to Team Leader Yang or the head of the Yang family.

Now, we need to appease the guard Wang in front of us.

Shopkeeper Yang pulled Wang Xiangdong into the room where he usually worked, poured him a cup of hot tea, and said, "Guard Wang, do you have any extra potatoes and sweet potatoes? Can you sell them all to our Yang family?"

Wang Xiangdong: "We brought some with us when we came back to look for our relatives. We were planning on eating them on the road, but we got separated from the group... You know everything about meeting Team Leader Yang later, right?"

"I know."

Shopkeeper Yang said to himself, there is no need to say more about this, just tell me the key points.

Wang Xiangdong looked at Shopkeeper Yang, carefully choosing his words, and said, "Later, we reconnected with the team. When they learned we were trapped here, they came looking for us. Knowing the people here were suffering, they bought some food and vegetables along the way, and also brought over the potatoes and sweet potatoes we brought from the west. Master Zhu and I went outside the city to meet them and bring back the supplies. So we didn't have much, we gave it all to the victims."

Shopkeeper Yang slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, I shouldn't have sent it earlier. If they eat it all, there will be nothing left. How can we continue to grow crops?"

Wang Xiangdong: "We have already sent our team back to the West because we think there are many things in the West that are not available in the Great Zhou. If they are brought to the Great Zhou, they will definitely sell well. So we asked them to go back and prepare the goods, including potatoes and sweet potatoes."

Wang Xiangdong thought to himself, "Sister Zhu, I did my best. I paved the way for those items to appear legitimately in the Great Zhou Dynasty. From now on, they will all say that they were trafficked from the West."

Shopkeeper Yang: "Oh, you should let your team come into the city. I, I will treat them well and send someone back with them so that we can take care of them on the way."

Wang Xiangdong: "Oh, I didn't think too much about it at the time. I just wanted them to go back and prepare the supply. Well, next time they come, I will definitely let them contact the Yang family caravan."

Shopkeeper Yang: We don’t know when the next one will be.

The West is so far away, can I come back in a year or two?

"No, we can't wait."

"Come on, come on, we can't wait, eat it while it's hot."

Yang Jiu came in holding a large earthen bowl filled with freshly cooked potatoes and sweet potatoes.

He continued what Shopkeeper Yang said.
