Chapter 897: Strategic crops!

"Empress!"

Yao Yun, Bald Long, and Second Elder Wu Tong all exclaimed, very surprised.

When Drought Demon was born, the fire of Drought Demon scorched the earth, and all accomplished Qi practitioners within thousands of miles would be awakened by it. How could the Drought Demon Empress not know when she had arrived? In the past, how had the Drought Demon Empress appeared in all the Xia Dynasties without causing a stir in the whole court.

However, after a few days, the Hanba Empress seemed to be a different person, her sharp edge was restrained, and the blazing fire of the Hanba was gone from her whole body. She came out of the dust gracefully in green clothes. If it weren't for the bald head that looked quite abrupt, she looked like a goddess descending to earth. , incomparable beauty.

"Congratulations, empress~"

After the bald dragon, Second Elder Wu Tong was surprised, he quickly realized something. They all respectfully congratulated Hanba Empress, with a bit of flattery and flattery on their faces. The bald dragon, who is a god, was no exception, even though he was the same. A land warrior has He Bo Ling in his hand, but in front of Hanbao Empress, he is just a little dragon, very tender!

Yao Yun also smiled slightly. He had communicated with the Empress Wanli Sound Transmission Stone before, and knew that the Empress had the merits of heaven and earth and the power of living beings to wash away the evil karma of heaven and earth, and was able to initially suppress the fire of the drought demon.

【A Thousand Miles of Red Land】has made Hanba the famous, but unfortunately, it is actually just a shackle, which has shackled the empress for thousands of years!

Although Empress Hanba no longer exudes monstrous power, this does not mean that her strength has declined. On the contrary, the more ordinary and unpretentious she looks, the more it proves that she has gone one step further and is unfathomable.

Yao Yun was not curious about the Queen's silent arrival in the Southern Wasteland, but was a little surprised as to why the Queen suddenly arrived in Xidu when she was tens of thousands of miles away a few hours ago.

Because he had a lot of connections, Yao Yun did not mince words, he spoke frankly and asked:

"Empress, why are you here?"

The second elder Wu Tong and the bald dragon were frightened when they heard Yao Yun's direct question. They were afraid that Empress Hanba would be angry. The second elder Wu Tong was about to apologize and smooth things over for Yao Yun, but the words came out of his mouth. On the other hand, he was stunned.

I saw a gentle smile blooming on the face of Hanbao Empress, who was dressed in green. The smile was full of love, just like a grandmother seeing her grandson, quiet, calm, and doting... Everything could not have appeared before. All the expressions on Hanbao Empress appeared.

The second elder Wu Tong, the bald dragon, opened his mouth in surprise, subconsciously rubbed his eyes, his face full of disbelief, is this still the indifferent and world-weary emperor's daughter Ba?

I'm afraid this is a fake Hanbao Empress!

Who is so brave and dares to pretend to be Hanbao Empress?

One person and one dragon subconsciously became vigilant and used their magical powers to get a closer look at the woman in green in front of them.

Empress Hanba ignored the idea of ​​one person and one dragon, and Yao Yun's casual, family-like tone made her feel unreasonably relaxed and in a good mood, which made her look good.

"Yao Yunhaier, guess what I found?"

Yao Yun was startled when he heard this, and then his face was filled with solemnity and surprise.

He also guessed something at the beginning. A few hours ago, Hanba Empress was still thousands of miles away, communicating with him and sharing the harvest some time ago. Suddenly, she would rush over thousands of miles away. It must be that in this short period of time, Hanba The queen has gained a lot!

The "harvest" that makes Lady Hanbao come back in a hurry must be a big surprise.

"Have you really found a high-yielding crop? Is it something you have never found in the wilderness, or..." When he said this, Yao Yun's breathing became rapid.

Wouldn't it really be possible for Empress Hanba to find her?

Hanbao Empress Xu understood what Yao Yun was thinking and nodded with a smile.

"That's right, it's the high-yielding crops you asked me to find, my dear. Everything you said is true..."

"Mother, what is it, corn, potato or..."

Before Empress Hanba could speak, Yao Yun couldn't wait to interrupt her and ask.

Empress Hanba was not angry at Yao Yun for interrupting her, and the smile on her face did not diminish at all, saying:

"It's sweet potatoes!"

"sweet potato?!"

"Um!"

After saying that, Empress Hanba stretched out her hand, and the Qiankun bag around her waist flashed faintly, and then two sweet potatoes appeared in her hand, one was long and the other was a bit like a gourd, a little deformed and chubby.

Yao Yun's eyes widened when he saw this, and his surprise was beyond words.

Yao Yun has always liked to eat sweet potatoes and is very familiar with them. He took the sweet potato from the hand of Hanba Empress and broke off a small section of the tip of his buttocks. He soon saw the light yellow flesh of the potato, and there was still a little bit of white in the flesh.

come out.

What a sweet potato!

Yao Yun's heart couldn't help but pounding. Among the many crops he was looking for, sweet potatoes definitely ranked first.

Sweet potatoes are an extremely high-yielding crop. Normally, a rice yield of five or six shi per mu is very good, but sweet potatoes can easily yield dozens of shi per mu. The yield is extremely high.

If Yao Yun had just taken charge of Xiguo Youshu, many of the difficulties he encountered in the early stages would have been nothing at all.

Of course, the greatest contribution of sweet potatoes is not the extremely high yield. Now that [Dangkang Golden Soil] is available, the yields of several staple foods, including rice, wheat, and millet, have increased significantly in Zhuxia Dynasty. With the advancement of farming techniques and the development of fertilizers,

With the cultivation of improved varieties, it can be expected that the yield will be higher and higher in the future.

The people of the Xi Kingdom have generally had enough food and clothing. Under such circumstances, people's demand for high-yielding sweet potatoes is not that high.

I find sweet potatoes delicious when I eat them on weekdays, but I get tired of them if I eat them every day.

It's as easy to eat as white rice.

However, even so, Yao Yun was still extremely excited. Sweet potato is not suitable as a staple food, but it is a well-deserved disaster-resistant crop. At critical moments, it can save thousands of people!

Sweet potatoes are resistant to drought and barrenness, and have strong vitality. They can be grown on a piece of sandy land or dry land. In disaster years, when other crops such as rice and wheat suffer large-scale crop failure and production reductions, sweet potatoes can still produce high yields and become a life-saving food to save all people!

This is exactly why Yao Yun is excited.

If a person has no long-term worries, he must have immediate worries.

Yao Yun has always been far-sighted and prepared for danger in times of peace.

Although the Xi Kingdom is now as prosperous as it was in its heyday, in fact, in this world where ghosts and gods still exist, and powerful wild beasts are rampant, catastrophic disasters occur from time to time, and the prosperity in front of us is not stable.

For example, the drought-stricken empress in front of me can turn the land thousands of miles away with just one thought, turning a good year into a disaster year, and turning countless people who have just had enough to eat back to their original shape.

Yao Yun's idea is completely true, and with sweet potato, Yao Yun undoubtedly has an extra layer of protection.

In good years, the food yield is high, and sweet potatoes are just a dish, a dessert, and a snack. But in disaster years, these sweet potatoes are undoubtedly the people's survival food.
