Armed with a machete and a gun, armed with a system, they fled the famine.

"His Majesty sent me to ask my sister-in-law why these potatoes have turned green. Are green potatoes still edible?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Sanlang quickly turned to look at Zhao Yan beside him.

Zhao Yan didn't rush to explain, but instead went to the carriage to check the potatoes in the sack.

Seeing that the potatoes did indeed have a greenish skin, it was clear that this was because the soil was not covered in time during the planting process.

So she explained to Yu Hao, "The potatoes are greenish on one hand, possibly because the people from the Ministry of Agriculture did not bury the seed potatoes deep enough when planting them. Also, if the soil is not piled up in time or the amount of soil is insufficient during the potato's growth, the potato skin will also turn green."

"Also, these green potatoes and sprouted potatoes are poisonous and should not be eaten."

She looked at Yu Hao and asked, "You didn't eat these green potatoes, did you?"

When Dou Qingran left the farm, she actually handed over the potato planting methods and all the precautions, along with the recipes, to him.

I just don't know why the people at the Ministry of Agriculture could still grow potatoes like this.

If Dou Qingran carefully reads the precautions she wrote, she will definitely not eat those green potatoes again.

Sure enough, after hearing her words, Yu Hao immediately said, "No, the Emperor said that green potatoes are poisonous, so he only tasted the ones that were not green. He asked me to bring these green potatoes over and ask what happened."

As for the two situations Zhao Yan mentioned earlier, he didn't quite understand them either.

So he waved behind him, and two people from the Ministry of Agriculture immediately came over.

Yu Hao said to Zhao Yan, "Sister-in-law, those two are from the Ministry of Agriculture. Could you explain to them again what you just said about the reasons why potatoes turn green and the precautions? Hehe, you're telling me, I don't understand this either."

"it is good."

Then, Zhao Yan patiently repeated what she had just said to the two people from the Ministry of Agriculture.

Yu Hao then brought up the issue of the potatoes grown by the Ministry of Agriculture being particularly unpalatable.

Zhao Yan thought for a moment and then said, "It's hard to say. It could be related to the soil environment or improper planting methods. You'll need to try it many times when you get back."

The two officials from the Ministry of Agriculture nodded in understanding.

Since the green potatoes were poisonous, Yu Hao naturally wouldn't leave them overnight.

He then had several sacks of green potatoes dug up and buried.

The officials from the Department of Agriculture had a basic understanding of why the potatoes turned green and what precautions should be taken in the future. All that remained was to try planting them multiple times.

Thus, Yu Hao's mission at the farm was complete, and he instantly became a free man.

Yang Sanlang wouldn't let him leave, and pulled him by the arm to walk home.

The two drank and chatted happily in the courtyard, and didn't go to bed until very late that night.

The next morning, after enjoying a delicious breakfast prepared by Yang Sanlang and exchanging a few pleasantries with Chen An and the others, Yu Hao hurriedly led his men back to the capital.

There was no other way; the Emperor was waiting for him to return and report, otherwise he would definitely have stayed at the farm for a while.

Upon hearing the reason, Dou Qingran waved his hand and ordered the people from the Ministry of Agriculture to go and investigate.

They can experiment freely for the next few years; he's not planning to popularize potatoes at all.

……

Life on the farm is pleasant and leisurely.

Time, though seemingly leisurely, always flies by.

Zhao Yan recalled the iron mine and the suspected salt mine she had discovered in the Yulin Mountains, and suddenly had the idea of ​​going to investigate them again.

Only when useful things are discovered and utilized can they be considered to be used to their fullest potential.

After struggling internally for two days, she whispered to Yang Sanlang at home.

"Sanlang, I'd like to take you to explore for treasures. I wonder if you'd be interested?"
