Chapter 7 Planting Sweet Potatoes

As soon as Jiang Hao said this, the group of farmers were in an instant.

"Doesn't that mean that once we plant this thing, we will no longer have to worry about food problems?"

"This thing looks like the rhizome of a plant. Can it be eaten?"

"I have been growing the land for decades and have never heard of sweet potatoes. If it were so magical, it would have been promoted long ago."

...

These farmers were chattering and discussing whether it is possible that the crop called sweet potatoes yielded ten times larger than wheat.

Jiang Hao knew that it was almost impossible to make them believe these things based on just one sentence of his own.

With a wave of his hand, several servants carrying plates walked out of the castle, and the plates were filled with cooked sweet potatoes.

The main thing to plant sweet potato seedlings purchased by Jiang Hao, and these sweet potatoes were bought separately for these farmers to try.

As soon as the sweet potato was brought out, the slightly sweet aroma overflowed in the air, making the farmers who had not eaten even more hungry.

Their eyes were as if they were shining, fixed on the sweet potato in Jiang Hao's hand, and swallowed their saliva at the same time.

Although I haven't tasted it yet, the taste alone is enough to attract them.

Jiang Hao reached out and took a piece of sweet potato into his hand, peeled off the charred skin, revealing the golden sweet potato meat inside, and handed it to Old Chuck's hand.

"Old Chuck, try the sweet potato."

"Thank you, Lord."

Old Chuck took the sweet potato with some excitement, then broke off a small piece of sweet potato meat, put it in his mouth to taste it.

Just as I put it in my mouth, a sweet smell instantly conquered his taste buds and made his eyes lit up: "This sweet potato is soft, glutinous and sweet, so delicious."

As soon as this sentence was said, it instantly attracted the greed of the farmers.

Jiang Hao waved his hand again, and the servant behind him began to distribute sweet potatoes, but these dozen sweet potatoes were indeed not enough for everyone to eat, so they could only eat one of two or three people.

After trying sweet potatoes, the farmers were full of praise.

"It's so sweet. It feels much sweeter than the maltose I eat."

"If this thing really has such a high yield, then we will not live a fairy life in the future?"

"Thank you for the reward of Lord Lord. I will only eat one bite and leave some for my son to eat."

"It's so delicious that I almost swallowed my tongue. If only I could eat it every day."

The food in Flower Town is insufficient, and this sweet and delicious food is even rarer, so they will naturally feel very delicious.

The farmers' attitudes began to change from disbelief and gradually turned into half-believing and half-doubting.

At the same time, their loyalty above their heads also jumped a lot, and this time they had at least a few hundred loyal points to account for the account.

Once they come home and talk about this matter, the loyalty point of the whole family will definitely increase.

After hearing the farmers' praise for Jiang Hao, Vivian looked at Jiang Hao with admiration.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Hao is not only so handsome, but also so capable, and is so good to his own people.

Thinking of this, Vivian's face turned a little red, and she actually had the idea of ​​not wanting to leave.

Looking at these excited farmers, Jiang Hao also showed an indescribable smile on his lips.

He quickly raised his hand and signaled everyone to calm down, and then said, "In addition, as long as you can plant these sweet potatoes well, I will reward you."

It is now autumn and the weather has gradually become colder.

But the clothes on these townspeople are still very thin. If the cold air comes, they may not be able to survive this cold winter.

Many farmers are worried that once the cold winter comes, they will find some way to keep the cold.

Now that I heard that as long as I work hard and have the reward of cloth, these farmers cheered again.

For them, being able to eat and wear warm clothes is an extremely luxurious thing.

But it took only two or three days, and under the leadership of the lord, there was hope.

The farmers waved their arms and cheered as if they were injected with chicken blood.

This loyalty is once again like a rocket, rushing upwards.

Purchasing in exchange for cloth is just Jiang Hao’s current expedient approach. If you want to truly make these townspeople have enough food and clothing, you still need to grow cotton.

However, the season for growing cotton is over now, and the land is not enough.

By the time of the spring of the next year, we can start to plan the planting of high-yield cotton.

"Then let's go to the wasteland and start planting."

Jiang Hao did not continue thinking about it, but shouted.

These farmers also waved the hoes and farm tools in their hands, and followed Jiang Hao closely.

I came to the wasteland again, and it has been completely renewed.

The land that was originally covered with weeds has been turned over and cultivated, and it feels like a new atmosphere.

All the cut weeds were burned into wood ash and were prepared to be composted later.

In fact, this was proposed by Jiang Hao when he came to inspect yesterday.

It is indeed far from the river, but sweet potatoes are themselves a drought-tolerant crop.

Moreover, Jiang Hao bought the latest sweet potato variety, and sweet potatoes can enter the maturity stage in about two months.

The soil here is very suitable for the production of sweet potatoes, and these sweet potatoes should be able to mature before the cold winter comes.

After arriving at the wasteland, the farmers began to get busy.

It can be seen that after Jiang Hao took two needles of chicken blood, these farmers were also full of energy.

Old Chuck does have the ability to command these farmers, and under his command, these farmers are also working in an orderly manner.

Those stronger young farmers are doing pit digging operations, while those thinner old farmers are sowing sweet potato seedlings.

...

In the next two days, Jiang Hao also spent a lot of time in the farmland.

In two days, all the sweet potato seedlings were planted.

And those farmers are also full of energy. Every day before dawn, some farmers will rush to the farmland to check the situation of the seedlings.

Just as Jiang Hao thought, after these farmers returned, they also promoted the deeds of the lord everywhere.

In two days, Jiang Hao once again gained thousands of loyalties.

High-yield sweet potatoes and distributed cloth have become a common focus in the town.

News also came from the old Corey that the escort team had been formed.
