Chapter 5 Potato seeds, leaving a name in history?

"The flooding in Jiangnan Province is likely to cause a nationwide famine next year. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you."

Luo Hongyan angrily sent Ye Chen back to Yonghe Palace.

"Hongyan, don't leave in a hurry. Will it really cause a nationwide famine next year and starve to death for many people?"

Ye Chen asked.

Luo Hongyan frowned.

As the head of the country, she couldn't act flustered in front of the ministers, but it didn't matter much in front of Ye Chen.

"The drought in the north is bad and the harvest is bad. Coupled with the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, it is indeed possible that many people will starve to death!"

Luo Hongyan was anxious.

Her position is relatively stable, but if there is a great famine and many people starve to death, some people will definitely jump out to make an issue of it.

Ye Chen said strangely: "Hongyan, there are many strong people in the Tianyan Dynasty. The powerful strong people can call the wind and rain without any problem. Can't you solve this problem?"

Luo Hongyan said helplessly: "A strong person can indeed adjust the climate in a small area, increase rice production, and make the rice mature in a shorter time. But the empire is vast, how much can a strong person change?"

Ye Chen's eyes lit up: "You're saying that if there are high-yielding food crops, they can be bred in a short time and planted on a large scale next year to solve the famine problem?"

Luo Hongyan rolled her eyes at Ye Chen.

"Where does such a thing come from?"

"No matter how powerful the practitioner is, it's impossible to conjure it out of thin air!"

"Besides, unless the yield per mu reaches thirty stones, it will be too late to expand planting next year!"

Ye Chen smiled.

He has indeed never heard of such a thing in this world, but he does!

In the past few years, I got a lot of junk when I signed in.

A little bit of it is not without its use. For example, he once got five hundred kilograms of potatoes!

On the outskirts of Tianyan Imperial City, Ye Chen rented two acres of land and planted five hundred kilograms of potatoes.

The time is ripe now!

"Hongyan, if I can solve this problem for you, will you kiss me?"

Ye Chen said with a smile.

Give it to you for free, that’s impossible!

During this period of time together, Ye Chen also got to know a lot about Luo Hongyan. A little teasing and teasing would not be a big problem.

Don't panic!

Luo Hongyan looked at Ye Chen coldly: "Ye Chen, do you know what you are talking about? This matter is related to the life and death of countless people. If you deceive the emperor, even if you are now a quasi-emperor, I will punish you for deceiving the emperor. sin!"

Ye Chen curled his lips.

"I mean, if that's the case, why are you deceiving the emperor?"

"But if you kiss me, I can really solve your problem."

Luo Hongyan took a few deep breaths. She absolutely did not believe that Ye Chen had such ability. Ye Chen said this made her angry!

"Okay, I promise you!"

"If you deceive me, I will chop off your head, and you will not be able to make fun of me!"

Luo Hongyan said coldly.

Regarding other matters, Marven could just joke about it, but she wouldn't allow it in this matter!

"You should know where I live."

"You sent someone to where I live. There are two acres of land behind the house and they planted some things."

"The leaves should be withered and yellow. Dig things out of the ground and be careful not to hurt them."

Ye Chen smiled.

"Don't bother!"

Luo Hongyan's consciousness quickly spread out, and in the blink of an eye her consciousness reached thirty kilometers away, to where Ye Chen lived on the outskirts of the city.

The year before last, Ye Chen had only moved to the outskirts of Tianyan Imperial City when he reached the acquired realm.

He can't afford a house in the city, so sad!

Immediately, Luo Hongyan's consciousness discovered the potatoes planted in the ground. They were like stones. There were tens of thousands of kilograms of potatoes densely packed in the soil!

"Is this thing edible?"

Luo Hongyan frowned and said, the potato doesn't look good.

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "What do you mean you can't eat what I grow? This thing can be used as a staple food. It's very hungry and tastes okay. There shouldn't be any problem with a yield of 30 shi per mu."

"There are fifty stones!"

Luo Hongyan said, her heartbeat speeding up. If this thing is really edible as Ye Chen said, it will make her very hungry.

She can allow practitioners to improve the climate, sprinkle spiritual water, set up formations, and quickly cultivate more seeds!

By then, large-scale planting will definitely solve the famine!

"Come!"

Luo Hongyan's consciousness wrapped a few potatoes and quickly arrived at Tianyan Emperor's Palace.

There were powerful people inside the imperial palace who noticed something unusual, but their spiritual consciousness, sensing that it was Luo Hongyan, did nothing.

"How to eat?"

Luo Hongyan asked.

Ye Chen made some beef, and half an hour later, there was a fragrant pot of beef stew with potatoes, and a stir-fried shredded potato was cooked by Ye Chen.

"Try?"

Ye Chen took a bowl and gave Luo Hongyan some pieces of potatoes.

Luo Hongyan took a bite without hesitation. Even if it was poisonous, she would not be easily poisoned to death with her god-king level cultivation!

"Um?"

Luo Hongyan was stunned after eating.

It tastes great!

Moreover, Luo Hongyan could clearly feel that the potatoes were being digested in her stomach, providing a lot of energy to her body.

I tried another bite of shredded potatoes, a different flavor!

"Hongyan, this thing can be eaten directly after boiling it in plain water, or it can be eaten after roasting it over fire."

"One more thing, this thing can be stored for a long time!"

Luo Hongyan nodded lightly.

With this thing, we should be able to survive the great famine next year, and after large-scale planting, there will probably be no more famines in the future!

Ye Chen's move saved countless lives.

If it was known that he was the one who took out the seeds, countless people would probably have Ye Chen's immortality tablet in their homes in the future.

"Beautiful beauty, you have no joke."

Ye Chen pointed to his mouth and said with a smile.

Instantly, Luo Hongyan approached Ye Chen, and her soft lips kissed Ye Chen's face, and they separated immediately!

"Kissing the face is also kissing!"

Luo Hongyan said and went away instantly, her face turned red, kissing the face is also a very intimate behavior!

"What a loss."

Ye Chen touched his face and muttered to himself.

"This guy!"

Luo Hongyan snorted lightly, and her expression was much more relaxed.

If there is no famine in the future, her throne will be more stable. The biggest reason for the people to rebel is that they are not full!

Soon, Luo Hongyan had people dig up all the potatoes quickly.

Tens of thousands of pounds of potatoes were planted in dozens of acres of imperial fields.

With formations, spiritual water, and the care of powerful people, dozens of acres of potatoes matured in just half a month.

One acre reached an astonishing 8,000 pounds!

A total of more than 200,000 pounds of potatoes were obtained.

A month later, it reached 5 million pounds, and it is estimated that it can reach several billion pounds by the beginning of spring.

It will definitely greatly alleviate the famine if it is sent out as grain.

"Ye Chen, we will send the grain to various places in the spring, and we will also tell the world that it was the grain discovered by the emperor and empress."

Luo Hongyan came to Ye Chen again.

The two are now closer.

Luo Hongyan had a faint smile on her face. After two rounds of planting, she had 5 million kilograms of potatoes, and Luo Hongyan was completely relieved.

"Don't, don't."

Ye Chen shook his head repeatedly, "My reputation is useless, but it's different for you. You asked someone to research and make potatoes, just say it!"

Luo Hongyan asked strangely: "Ye Chen, are you sure?"

"You are not only benefiting the people of Tianyan, but when it spreads, the people of other countries will also benefit, and you will definitely leave your name in history!"

Even if you become a strong man at the level of the emperor, you may not be able to leave your name in history!

"Not interested."

Ye Chen didn't care.

He just wanted to sign in.

Leaving a name in history, is there a future invincible fragrance in the world?

"After another month of holding back, do you want to go somewhere else?"

Luo Hongyan took the initiative this time. She was embarrassed in the bedroom before, but Ye Chen had made such a great contribution, so he had to give her some reward.

"That's fine. Go to your bedroom?"

Ye Chen's eyes lit up. He had received an S-level reward before, and maybe he could get another S-level reward!

Speaking of this, Ye Chen felt that he was at a loss.

After receiving the S-level reward, he did not continue to sign in there. The next two times he signed in at Yonghe Palace.

The reward was really average.

I don't even want to mention it!

"No!"

Luo Hongyan refused immediately.

"Then...can I go to the place where you hold court?"

Ye Chen asked.

The place where you hold court is Tianji Hall, which is much smaller than Chaotian Palace.

There are not many people attending court normally, so Tianji Hall is more suitable.

"Okay!"

Luo Hongyan thought about it and nodded slightly.

The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and people from the harem cannot go to Tianji Hall, but Ye Chen's contribution this time is indeed great.

Besides, it was night time now, so it wouldn't be a big problem to take Ye Chen there quietly.
