Chapter 208 Corn

Gu Junli knew that the corn came from the greenhouse, but he didn't know how much such corn could grow in one acre of land.

I feel ashamed to say that I have always been pretentious and always thought that I had the ability to govern the country, but it was just delayed by fate.

But now it seems that he is a little arrogant, because he couldn't answer this question just now, which means that he doesn't know much about farming.

Not only this corn, but also the wheat and rice that everyone has been growing, he didn't know.

"Please tell me, girl."

After Gu Junli said this, he saluted Su Ruchun, which surprised Su Ruchun.

"It's not necessary, it's just a small problem. The yield per mu is about 1,500 catties."

Gu Junli frowned slightly. He still wasn't sure how many people could be fed with so much food.

Seeing that he didn't quite understand, Su Ruchun took the initiative to explain.

"The simple explanation is that a man like you needs about one kilogram of rations a day. And this acre of land can feed five adults."

Hearing this, Gu Junli was completely stunned, and then took a breath.

One acre of land can feed five adults. How can a family only need two acres of land to feed themselves?

"You mean, this two acres of corn land can feed a large family?"

Su Ruchun nodded. The yield of corn is high, and it has another advantage.

"In addition, the production time of corn is not very long. After the wheat is harvested, corn can be planted again. This means that two crops of grain can be harvested in a year, without delaying the wheat, and there can be additional harvests.

"

Gu Junli was silent for a long time, not knowing what to say, and then asked in great surprise: "Where do these corn seeds come from?"

Su Ruchun couldn't help but laugh, "Have you forgotten? Didn't I save a businessman from outside?

He brought these seeds, and after planting them for such a long time, I finally figured out some of their characteristics.

Of course, whether there will be problems later will have to be verified slowly, but I have tried it and there will be no major problems."

According to Gu Junli's understanding, after trying it, Su Ruchun had already ripened it with her own energy.

"Can this really be used as food?"

“Although the taste is not as good as white flour and rice, it can fill your stomach.”

Gu Junli deeply understands that for ordinary people, eating well is the most important thing. Nowadays, not every household can eat white flour, and many people are still eating glutinous rice flour.

"Then, this corn should be planted in large quantities!"

"Don't worry, this corn is not the best yet, because both corn and wheat are affected by the weather.

It doesn't matter if it's drought or waterlogging, it won't work. In addition, I still have sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes are not only highly resistant to drought, but also do not choose the place where they are produced. They do not need the best fields. Mountains, dry land, and sandy land are all acceptable.

Once planted, you don’t need to put in a lot of effort to take care of it, it can grow on its own. The key is that the yield per mu is about three thousand kilograms.”

Gu Junli looked at Su Ruchun and didn't know what to say. The news came one after another, which made him a little confused.

In other words, Su Ruchun not only gave herself corn, but also brought sweet potatoes?

“What are sweet potatoes?”

"I'll give you a taste."

Su Ruchun took out a roasted sweet potato and a portion of sweet potato porridge from her basket.

This is what she just did, and it was only given to Gu Junli.

Gu Junli was already full, but he ate another meal without any hesitation. Although he felt uncomfortable, this was really important to him.

Looking at the corn and sweet potatoes in front of him, he had a feeling that all the hardships would be rewarded and his fortune would be reversed.

He originally thought that the healing ointment was an unexpected surprise, but he didn't expect that the real surprise was here.

"How many seeds do you have!" Gu Junli controlled his excitement and asked tremblingly.

"I have seeds, many, many, but no fields."

Hearing this, Gu Junli nodded.

It's easy to handle if you have seeds. The field is not the most important thing. He can solve this problem.

If he can keep the people fed, his path will be considered stable.

However, if this matter is really done, there will definitely be countless speculations on the father's side.

However, this is also his best opportunity.

Grain, mastering grain means mastering everything!

Although you will be speculated, as long as you are strong enough, you are not afraid of such speculation.

"Don't worry, I will do this."

When Su Ruchun heard this, he nodded and said, "I will provide the seeds to ensure that the yield will never decrease."

"That would be best. I am most assured of the seeds you provide. Don't worry, if this thing is done, I will share half of the profit with you.

It's just like Ruchun, we are doing this not just to make money, but mainly to fill people's stomachs, so we may not make too much.

But don’t worry, I will never let you suffer. I will give you one hundred thousand taels of silver every year."

Su Ruchun's eyes lit up when she heard the price of one hundred thousand taels. This guy is really rich.

However, what she wanted was not money. What she needed was a backer. She could see that Gu Junli was no ordinary person at all.

If she is destined not to live a peaceful life, then she might as well find someone to hug her. If nothing else, Su Dashan's status will sooner or later cause trouble.

"I don't want one hundred thousand taels of silver, I just want two cents as dividends."

Gu Junli didn't expect that Su Ruchun only wanted 20%?

"Too little."

"No! Nothing less. Two achievements are enough."

Su Ruchun insisted, but Gu Junli didn't know why.

Su Ruchun knew that she only provided seeds, which was not an absolute advantage.

Because corn, as long as it grows for one year, will become seeds the next year. What it can provide are seeds, which is not competitive.

This is especially true for sweet potatoes, which can be planted directly without careful selection.

Therefore, although these two things are precious and come from myself, they are not competitive in the later stage.

She can't just keep taking dividends based on her initial achievements. That would not be making friends, but taking advantage of others.

Therefore, she is responsible for providing the best quality seeds and only needs 20% dividends every year. She thinks this is reasonable.

As for what Gu Junli can get from it and what purpose he can use these two grains to achieve, that is his ability and has nothing to do with him.

Therefore, Su Ruchun felt that it would be enough for him to get two achievements.

Moreover, she will have other ways to make money later, and this corn is not just for food.

Not to mention other by-products, just one thing, corn oil, is enough to make money.

Su Ruchun's persistence surprised Gu Junli. He didn't understand why Su Ruchun was so determined this time.

Moreover, Su Ruchun kept reminding him of things he needed to pay attention to when growing corn.
