Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Cao Cao Sangu Maolu invited me out of the mountain

“Thousands of catties per acre?”

“How is this possible?”

Don’t say it’s Dianwei, this iron han.

Xun Yu, who was old and heavy, was also unbelievable, shaking his head like a rattle.

Cao Cao felt that his intelligence had been severely humiliated.

“If the yield is really four or five thousand catties, you will eat the same weight of soil!”

Dian Wei refused to believe it, and slapped his chest with a bang.

Xun Yu said: “Mr. Shen’s building of the immortal plough and the water god car can be called ingenious, and the old man admires the five bodies to the ground. However, the grain produced by four or five thousand catties per acre is inevitably exaggerated! ”

“The sweet potato is in the ground, I don’t believe you dug it up and called it!”

Shen Xuan smiled bitterly helplessly.

Face such several sand sculptures.

If you don’t show real strength, it seems that it will not work.

Immediately let a common man go home and bring a scale.

Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Dian Wei and a dozen other people tossed in the sweet potato field.

“Seventy-five pounds!”

“Eighty-three catties!”

“Fifty-one pounds!”

……

Sweet potatoes are dug up.

Cao Cao stared intently from the sidelines, and it was impossible to fake.

Five thousand catties!

One acre of land has not yet been dug, and the sweet potatoes dug up have already reached five thousand catties!

“Fetish!”

“This is a divine gift from heaven!”

The people were terrified.

A group of people kowtow to sweet potatoes and worship them as fetish.

The yield of wheat and millet in one acre of land is only two or three hundred catties.

The output of thousands of catties is indeed too scary!

If something goes wrong, it must be a demon.

Don’t say the stupid common people.

Cao Cao, Xun Yu and the others were also frightened.

In the end, the yield of sweet potatoes in this acre of land totaled more than 6,200 catties.

At this time, Cao Cao was already shocked and excited and unable to speak.

Xun Yu and the others had red eyes and short of breath, as if pulling a bellows.

Guo Jia’s legs were a little soft, and his body couldn’t help but tremble.

Dian Wei is a real person, sitting directly next to the sweet potato pile, letting go of his belly and eating.

This year.

What is most lacking?

Population!

Early Three Kingdoms.

The entire population of Dahan is more than 50 million.

By the end of the Three Kingdoms.

The population plummeted to more than eight million.

There is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, and the white bones are exposed in the wild.

This is not what Cao Cao said casually after getting drunk.

It is the most true portrayal of the Three Kingdoms period.

What is the main reason for this situation?

Grain!

After years of war, the Lebanese people were displaced.

The fields are barren and uncultivated.

The vast majority of people were not killed in war, but starved to death.

Easy to eat, thousands of miles of hunger.

This kind of human tragedy can be seen everywhere during the Three Kingdoms period.

Cheng Yu, a counselor under Cao Cao, once used human flesh to make preserved meat and use it as military food.

It can be seen to what extent there is a shortage of food now.

Sweet potatoes, what a treasure!

High yield.

Can be used as a staple food.

No food can compare.

Thousands of years of feudal society in China, through dozens of dynasties.

Why did the population never exceed 100 million before the Qing Dynasty?

In the Qing Dynasty, the highest population reached 500 million?

It’s not how powerful the boar skin is to govern the country.

Nor how developed agriculture was at that time.

It’s because of one thing… Sweet potato!

Sweet potatoes were introduced to China at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and by the time of the Qing Dynasty, they were popularized throughout the country.

As a result, starvation has been greatly reduced.

This has led to a surge in population.

If sweet potatoes are promoted at this time, how many people can be fed?

And how much more grain and grass can there be?

Cao Cao and the others did not dare to think.

“If sweet potatoes are promoted, there will be plenty of food and grass.”

“If there is enough food and grass, I will sweep the world, and the day is just around the corner!”

Cao Cao’s heart stirred.

Because he was so excited, his chest rose and fell and his face turned red.

It seems that great rivers and mountains are in front of you, and you can get it at your fingertips.

Shen Xuan was a little worried, should this person have high blood pressure?

“This thing should only be in heaven, how can it fall to earth?”

“Could it be that God has mercy on the people of the world and has given such a divine thing?”

Xun Yu held a sweet potato in both hands, knelt on the ground and shouted to the sky, tears flowing.

“My son!”

“If you had had had this heaven-given divine object a year earlier, you would not have been treated as grain and eaten!”

A middle-aged man suddenly knelt on the ground and cried.

Everyone was ashamed.

In this day and age, starvation is the norm.

Some people were so hungry that they had to kill their children to save their families’ lives.

This is the real Three Kingdoms.

Brutal!

A common man pulled up the man and said with a smile: “Old Fan, don’t cry, now that you have sweet potatoes, don’t you just let your mother-in-law give birth to a few more?” If you can’t, please let me help you!” ”

“Get out!”

The middle-aged man roared.

Everyone laughed, which diluted the sad atmosphere a lot.

Shen Xuan looked at Dian Wei and said with a smile: “This uncle, when are you going to start eating soil?” ”

“Oh, will you finish eating in thirty years?”

Dian Wei stammered, a black face that turned into a monkey’s butt.

Many people laughed again.

Guo Jia asked, “Why didn’t Mr. Shen offer sweet potatoes to the imperial court in exchange for fame?” ”

Cao Cao looked at Shen Xuan.

If he was willing to offer the sweet potatoes and reward him with a marquis, it would not be exaggerated.

If you don’t give it….

Cao Aqiao is not only good at robbing people’s wives, but also good at robbing things!
