The Strongest System To Dominate the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 185: Guo Jia shocked again and again

Zhang Yu returned to Jiangdong and went out this time for two months.

In two months, Zhang Yu gained more than 300,000 points.

Zhang Yu's daring to build roads is also an important reason.

Points can be directly exchanged for food, so Zhang Yu has this confidence.

"Lord, why are these people still opening up wasteland on a large scale? We must know that the farming period has passed by this time, and what is the point of opening up wasteland at this time." Guo Jia asked.

When I first entered Kuaiji County, it was already more than five months, and the normal farming time has passed.

The rice has already been sown, and it is too late to plant the wasteland at this time.

"Lord, it is not easy to divert water from this mountainside, so how come some people open up wasteland?"

Guo Jia has more and more questions. Zhang Yu likes to investigate everywhere along the way, and Guo Jia follows.

Zhang Yu walked some places and saw that after spring sowing, he began to cultivate a lot of land.

Of course, Zhang Yu also has a plan, because the seeds are limited in the first year.

Zhang Yu exchanged one million points for sweet potato seeds, and the system would give one hundred thousand units of seeds, that is, rattans, and then he wanted to have points, one point for one rattan.

So the seeds are limited, mainly because Zhang Yu is not willing to spend too many points, because there are still many things to redeem.

"Part of these land is for growing sweet potatoes and potatoes, and part is for growing tea." Zhang Yu said.

"Sweet potatoes, potatoes?" Guo Jia asked.

"Yes, these are two edible plants, which can be used as staple food. The most important thing is that the yield can be increased by more than 20 to 30 times." Zhang Yu said.

Guo Jia was stunned immediately.

If the output is increased by several times, what is the concept is that the same piece of land can feed dozens of times more people.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the population skyrocketed, and in the Qing Dynasty it increased by hundreds of millions. One of the important reasons was the promotion of sweet potatoes.

"Lord, can it really increase grain production dozens of times?" Guo Jia asked in surprise.

Zhang Yu nodded. This sweet potato not only increases production, but is also easy to manage. It can be grown in many places and is not as demanding as rice.

Guo Jia's heart was surging, what kind of concept this is.

Kuaiji County can feed many, many people, and there is no need to worry about food in the future.

This Kuaiji County will no longer be a remote place, but will prosper soon.

Guo Jia knew Zhang Yu's strategy, constantly recruiting refugees from various places, and with enough food, his strength soon became stronger.

Suddenly, Guo Jia felt that coming to Kuaiji County was a very good choice.

Zhang Yu took Guo Jia and some guards to continue walking in the field, which would walk up to a small mountain.

On the top of the hill, tea gardens have been opened up. Some of these tea gardens have been planted with tea trees and have grown taller.

"This year's autumn tea can catch up." Zhang Yu said while looking at this mountain.

Guo Jia walked around with Zhang Yu and found a lot of novelties.

The curved ploughs in the fields and the waterwheels amazed Guo Jia and him. These are great inventions that can increase food several times.

The reason is very simple. Let's say that the Quyuan Plow can grow five acres per person, but it may be tens of acres with the Quyuan Plow, which increases the planting area and increases the output.

After strolling outside, Zhang Yu finally returned to the Prefect.

"Fengxiao, you are finally here. I have been happy for several days after receiving a letter from the lord." Xi Zhi happily greeted him as soon as he entered the prefect's mansion.

"Zicai really didn't deceive me, this Kuaiji County is really different from other places." Guo Jia said.

"Haha, okay, let's go in and talk, and call Zibu and the others." Zhang Yu said.

Xi Zhicai said to Zhang Yu: "Master, as soon as I heard that you have come back, Zibu and the others have already come."

In fact, Zhang Zhao and the others usually also work in the Prefectural Mansion, but they manage too many things, and they often go to the scene in person, so they are often not in the Prefectural Mansion.

A few people went in. Zhang Zhao and Xiang Heng were already waiting inside, but they were still busy with their hands. They didn't stop their work until Zhang Yu came in.

After Zhang Yu introduced them to each other, he entered the topic.

"Zibu, please tell me and Feng Xiao about the current situation in Huiji County," Zhang Yu said.

Zhang Zhao began to introduce that the population of Huiji County has not increased much now, just tens of thousands.

However, statistics show that there is a lot of land reclaimed.

According to Zhang Zhao's statistics, Huiji County can feed at least several times the population.

"Lord, look, what is this." After the introduction, Zhang Zhao took out the paper on the table and said.

Zhang Yu had actually seen the paper, but he was not surprised at all.

"Master, the paper is really finished, and it can still be written normally. From now on we will never need bamboo slips anymore." Zhang Zhao said excitedly.

Zhang Yu calmed down a lot, but Guo Jia was not calm.

He had heard of paper. Cai Lun belonged to the Eastern Han Dynasty. He invented paper, but the paper was useless at all.

But the paper that Xi Zhi took out had clearly written words on it.

Guo Jia stood up, rushed over, and took the paper.

"This is paper, it's really paper. The texture is so good." Guo Jia took the paper and stroked it, his face turned out to be excited.

Guo Jia is very excited. Although paper has been invented for a long time, it has not been used for writing, but now he has seen paper that can write normally. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"Zhicai, how valuable is this paper? How long will it take to make it." After being excited, Guo Jia calmly asked.

"Haha, Fengxiao, don't be excited. If this paper is manufactured on a large scale, the price will be cheaper. At present, it is a bit more expensive because it is produced less, but no matter how expensive it is, it is much cheaper than bamboo slips." Xizhi said.

When Guo Jia heard it, he had a bottom in his heart. This is definitely a great invention.

After Guo Jia was excited, Zhang Yu arranged to expand the paper mill until the market could supply the entire Dahan in the future.

Zhang Zhao then reported: "Master, our salt drying method has also achieved great results. The first time the salt is exposed to hundreds of thousands of stones, this is so efficient that my subordinates have only seen it in their lives."

Talking about this, Zhang Zhao was also excited.

Unexpectedly, the results of drying the salt once were so great.

This salt field can be dried every two months or so, so much at a time. If a few more salt fields are opened, a single county in Kuaiji can supply the entire Dahan market.

Throughout the ages, this salt has been one of the most profitable industries.

In ancient times, this salt was used to feed the court.

But in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it was not the royal salt and iron franchise, and gave them a chance.

When Guo Jia heard this, he hurriedly asked what is the salt drying method.

When Guo Jia finished listening, he was shocked and speechless.

"The world actually has this method. This is really shocking. I am afraid that the entire salt market will be subverted." Guo Jia said in shock.

Zhang Yu has calmed down a lot. The success of the salt drying method can change the pattern of the entire big man, which Zhang Yu is not surprised.

However, Zhang Yu has not yet been able to sell salt on a large scale. This will inevitably be countered by salt merchants from all over the country. Zhang Yu is still developing his strength. When his strength becomes stronger, he is not afraid of others, and he can do whatever he wants.
