Master Li smiled and said: "Yes, it was a surprise. Brother Zhao, look at how full these wheat grains are. Look again, there are so many grains in this one ear of wheat. Based on my experience, this mu The land has a yield of at least five hundred catties."
Zhao Tianyun was taken aback for a moment, unable to believe it, "Five hundred catties? At least five hundred catties?"
Master Li nodded, "Yes, at least five hundred catties, or even more, let's wait and see how much there is in the end."
Zhao Yuntian was even more surprised. He is not good at farming, but he also knows that wheat with a yield of 300 jin per mu is considered a high-yield wheat.
?They saw an old lady with her grandson. The granddaughter was too busy. Master Li and Zhao Tianyun also helped with the work.
Although this is a bit slower, it is good to buy time.
In three days, five acres of wheat were harvested.
Master Li couldn't wait to weigh it. Although it was not dried in the sun, after removing 50 catties of water, there were actually 520 catties per mu of land, which exceeded previous expectations.
Master Li couldn't wait to go to the county seat, and asked the county magistrate to come here in person.
The county magistrate Mr. Zhou was also very excited when he heard Master Li's report.
If it is done well, this is a great achievement!
"Let's go to Liujia Village now. I want to watch it for myself." Mr. Zhou was excited. Although he knew that Master Li would not lie about these issues, hearing is believing, seeing is believing, so he must go and see for himself.
If this result is reported, the higher-ups will definitely attach great importance to it, and will definitely send people down to investigate.
If it is false, his official career will be over.
Therefore, be cautious and cautious.
Master Zhou brought the servants to Liujia Village.
Now the threshing floor is completely dry, so every household has started to deliver wheat to the threshing floor continuously.
When Mr. Zhou saw these grains full of grains, holding these wheat grains in both hands, he almost shed tears with excitement.
Leave a few confidantes here to carefully calculate and strive to get the most accurate data.
God opened his eyes, the weather has been fine for the next half month, and the people have completed the harvest.
Old man Liu's 20 mu of land has the highest wheat yield, with an average yield of 520 catties, and the 20 mu of land yields 1400 catties of wheat.
Even if the tax is paid, 8,400 catties of grain can be saved.
The wheat output of other families in Liujia Village is as high as 470 catties.
Liu Chengpeng, the only household in Liujia Village, grows the best wheat seeds purchased from the county's seed shop, with a yield of 290 jin. The quality of the wheat is not good, and half of the wheat is dark and moldy.
Liu Chengpeng saw that other people's wheat grains were plump, light brown on the outside, and there was no trace of mold. He regretted it very much, and his intestines were almost green with regret.
Others in the village snickered, Liu Chengpeng wanted to save face and suffer, now he has tasted the bitter fruit!
Liu Chengpeng's family now hates and is angry with Liu Chengxiang. With such a good thing, they don't give it to brothers, but to others.
"Chengpeng, wait, I just want food, and I want to get good seeds from my second child's house. I don't believe that he doesn't want my mother anymore." The old lady was trembling with anger, and was about to go to Old Man Liu's house with a walking stick.
When Liu Chengpeng heard this, he quickly got up and stopped him, "My old lady, don't make trouble, you still treat Chengxiang as before? They have become shrewd now, and they won't give us any advantage.
In this case, even if you go to make a fuss, you will not be able to make a name for yourself, and in the end you will let others watch the joke. If Chengxiang gets busy, we probably won't be able to get wheat or rice seeds anymore. "
When the old lady heard this, she was angry and furious, "No matter how powerful and capable Liu Chengxiang is, she crawled out of my stomach. She doesn't care about her old mother, God will not stand it, and she will be struck by lightning."
Still the same rhetoric, nothing new at all.
When Liu Chengpeng's daughter-in-law heard this, she quickly grabbed her mother-in-law, but she couldn't let her mess around.
"Mother, now everyone in Liujia Village buys seeds from the second brother's family and speaks for the second brother's family. If we don't pay, not only will we not get the seeds, but we will probably be scolded by the villagers." Niu said, I don't want my mother-in-law to make trouble inside.
After all, they have had enough of such a lesson.
The result of being obsessed with obsession is that half of the wheat on this year's 30 mu of land is moldy. Even if such wheat is dried in time, it costs only two cents a catty.
Seeing the eldest son and the eldest daughter-in-law said so, the old lady stomped her feet angrily, "If you don't accept my kindness, then I won't be such a bad person anymore."When the old lady came into the house angrily, Niu said in a low voice: "The head of the house, Liu Chengxiang probably doesn't like our wheat, so you should hurry up and buy wheat seeds with your money, lest you go late and you won't be able to buy them." .¡±
Liu Chengpeng nodded, "What you said is that the second brother's family still has the highest wheat production. It is estimated that other people in the village will buy the second brother's wheat seeds."
"It's not just in the village. I heard that many daughters-in-law's family and married woman's family want it. Hurry up, the second family's wheat may not be able to keep it." Niu reminded.
Liu Chengpeng was also in a hurry, "Hurry up and get the money, we need 20 catties for one mu of land, and our family has 30 mu of land, which requires 600 catties of wheat seeds. Four cents a catty, that's two taels four denarii."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Niu directly took five liang of silver, "Four fen a catty, that's the price of ordinary wheat. Last year, people in the village started exchanging a catty and a half of wheat for a catty of wheat seed, which was six fen.
This year, even the government has stepped in, and the price of this wheat seed may be even higher. You buy it for four pennies, and the second child is not what it used to be. How can he sell it to you so cheaply? Hurry up and go, don't cut and shrink"
When Liu Chengpeng heard this, he felt that it made sense, so he could only follow what his wife said.
That honest second brother is no longer honest. Not only did he dare to fight hard with his elder brother, but he also didn't have a good look at his old mother.
When Liu Chengpeng hurried to the old man Liu's house, he saw many mule carts parked in front of Liu Chengxiang's house.
Liu Chengpeng saw the government servant carrying bags of grain from Liu Chengxiang's house on the mule cart.
Liu Chengxiang stood in front of Master Li with a smile, "Thank you Master Li for your support, my wheat is sold at such a high price!"
"Hehe, this is because your family has a high yield of wheat. It is a very good variety, so the county magistrate ordered to buy the improved variety at a high price, and then transport it to the warehouse for preservation and plant it in large quantities next year!" Master Li replied.
The discovery of the good breed has now been reported, and Fucheng has also given a reply.
Let them find a good place to plant, and then confirm the output again next year, and then report to the imperial court. They must ensure high yield, and there must be no mistakes.
? In order to favor the old man Liu's family who produced the fine seed, the county magistrate Mr. Zhou bought the wheat from the old man Liu's family at the highest price of fine seed for nine cents a catty.
Old man Liu's family only had 20 mu of land, so he left him more than 400 catties of seeds, and the remaining 10,000 catties were all bought by the county magistrate. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
