Chapter 135 Amazing corn yield per mu!
"Haha, everyone is here. I'm a little late because I'm busy!"Just as everyone was discussing, Ye Chen walked in with a smile on his face.
"Greetings, my lord!"
Everyone looked at Ye Chen coming and bowed respectfully.
Many of them hold official positions under Ye Chen.
That's why their family was willing to give up part of the land and register it.
"No need to be so polite, everyone. Now that everyone is here, let's set off!"
Without exchanging too many pleasantries with this group of people, Ye Chen said a few words and then walked out of the governor's mansion.
Looking at the carriages that had been prepared long ago outside the governor's mansion, everyone got on them one after another.
Then the carriage was seen speeding all the way towards the outside of Xuzhou city.
In Ye Chen's carriage.
"Marshal Ye, Zhongde, what on earth are you guys keeping secret?"
Seeing that the carriages had already left the city, Guo Jia became more and more curious.
What is the trump card?
What makes Ye Chen and Cheng Yu so confident.
"Don't worry, Fengxiao, we'll be there soon."
Taking a look at the fields outside, Ye Chen chuckled.
The fact that he dared to allow the Xuzhou noble families to be tax-exempt must be his trump card.
After a while, one carriage after another stopped and arrived in front of a vast farmland.
In the farmlands here, soldiers and civilians are constantly busy working in the fields.
Guo Jia got off the carriage and looked at the crops on both sides of the fields. His eyes suddenly changed.
On one side are rice and wheat ears with full grains, forming a vast expanse of greenery in an acre of farmland.
In the fields on the other side, there were straw-like crops with pressure sticks hanging on them.
With just one glance, Guo Jia seemed to understand it instantly.
"Zhongde, what is the yield of rice per mu, and what kind of crop is this?"
Pointing at the rice and the corn cobs on the other side, Guo Jia quickly started asking.
He had already guessed a possibility.
"Don't worry, you'll know soon!"
Pointing to a place not far away where someone had already started counting, Cheng Yu spoke calmly.
Among the people from the aristocratic families who followed, except Chen Deng who had seen the rice harvest in Guangling County, everyone else was confused.
"Report, my lord, this year one acre of rice yields 1,300 kilograms, and one acre of corn yields 1,100 kilograms!"
Not long after, the soldiers who were doing statistics came hurriedly and reported to Ye Chen and others with a happy look on their faces.
"What? More than 1,000 kilograms per mu?!"
In an instant, as the yield per mu appeared, Mi Zhu and other people from the noble families who followed were all stunned! !
The man's one acre of land only yields 200 kilograms per acre.
The fertile fields under their command had a slightly higher yield, but it was only about 300 kilograms per mu.
The rice yield per mu in these fields has reached more than 1,300 kilograms? ?
What is this concept? ?
The output of this one acre of land is equal to that of their four acres of fertile farmland.
And there is the crop corn that you have never heard of.
The yield is actually 1,100 kilograms? ?
This is unscientific! !
"No wonder, no wonder the lord is not short of food, no wonder the lord wants to do this!"
In an instant, Guo Jia's eyes flashed, and he understood everything.
Why Ye Chen’s army never lacks food.
He even dared to exempt the aristocratic families from taxes.
It turns out that there are rice seeds with such amazing yields.
For a moment, looking at the large tracts of farmland planted with rice and corn, Guo Jia's heart was filled with horror.
The yield per acre of land is six times that of ordinary farmland.
What a concept! !
Doesn't this mean that Xuzhou is just a state?
Can it feed the people of the six states of the Han Dynasty? !
Thirteen states of the Han Dynasty!
Doesn't this mean that the land of just two states is enough to support the entire Han people? !
"Gulu!"
Thinking of this, Guo Jia swallowed his saliva, and his eyes couldn't help but look at Cheng Yu beside him. Cheng Zhongde, Cheng Zhongde.
Marshal Ye has such a terrifying supply of grain, and you didn't even tell me?
At this moment, Guo Jia also understood.
Why did Cheng Yu agree to let Ye Chen go south to Yangzhou?
If things develop normally, the territories of Xuzhou and Yangzhou would never be able to match the territories of Youzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou and Bingzhou.
But if we have this kind of grain, everything will be different.
Yangzhou is a place with fertile soil, far away from the center of war.
As long as Ye Chen took over the state of Yangzhou, he sent people to reclaim the wasteland.
These grains are grown on a large scale.
Then he could rely on the land of Yangzhou to feed the many soldiers under his command.
Then he sent troops from Xuzhou to compete with other heroes in the world.
Two states, to Ye Chen, means four states! !
"Marshal Ye, what kind of grain do you have? How can you have such a high yield?"
Guo Jia had already thought about the upcoming battle, while Mi Zhu and others were even more shocked by the grain in Ye Chen's hands.
The grain yield per mu is more than 1,000 kilograms.
This is really too shocking.
If they could also grow such grains, their family would be able to move to the next level.
"Don't worry, everyone. You can go to Zi Zhong and Yuan Tan to buy these grain seeds later according to the number of acres of land you reported!"
With a smile on his face, Ye Chen said something to everyone present.
For a moment, the crowd, which was originally excited, was dumbfounded when they heard that they had to buy seeds according to the number of acres of land they reported.
They have many fields under their command.
Purchase according to the number of acres they report.
What about the remaining fields?
After seeing the rice and corn seeds that can produce more than 1,000 kilograms per mu, they really don't want to stop planting their original seeds.
"You are all my loyal subjects. Don't worry, even if you want to buy more seeds, it is understandable!"
Looking at the expressions of this group of people, Ye Chen sneered in his heart.
Do you regret it now? ?
Why didn't I see you and others looking like this when we annexed so much land without reporting it?
"My lord is wise!"
Chen Yuanlong and Mi Zhu, who had guessed it long ago, were all delighted at this moment and were flattering excitedly.
Especially Mi Zhu, he thought of the 20,000 acres of fertile land he had donated.
In a blink of an eye, the yield per mu might exceed 20 million kilograms of grain, and he couldn't help but gasp.
"Zi Zhong, Yuan Long, you are all under my command. For the land that you have offered for registration, I will charge you 10% tax per acre!"
He said lightly that the ratio of 10% tax to 3% was a favor Ye Chen gave them.
For a while.
Seeing Chen Deng and Mi Zhu couldn't help but be delighted, the other noble families who had arrived couldn't help but cry with envy.
Especially seeing the fields producing over a thousand kilograms per acre.
They really regretted it.
The rice yield per mu has quadrupled, but the tax rate is only 3%.
I knew there was such a discount earlier.
They registered all the land in their home.
Don't even mention the 30% tax.
Even if the tax rate is 10% and 5%.
They also doubled their earnings.
"Well, my lord, I have a lot of good farmland at home. I wonder if I can give it to you?"
One of them asked in a low voice, he really regretted it.
Why did you donate three hundred acres of fertile land in the first place?
Such a great thing.
He wants to double it directly to 3,000 acres. No, he wants to donate 10,000 acres!
