Chapter 468 468, Amazing Yield
"Mother, sister-in-law, potatoes are growing!"
Qi Qing picked up a potato vine, with a bunch of large and small potatoes strung at the root. The smallest was the size of a child's fist, and the largest was as big as an adult's fist.
She was just squatting and counting how many potatoes there were.
At first, she also thought that the sun was too strong and worried that the vines planted in the backyard would be dried out, so she went to the vegetable field in the backyard to take a look.
Then inadvertently, she seemed to see a little yellow in the soil, which looked like potatoes, but didn't my parents say that potatoes would not mature until mid-July at the earliest?
It’s only July, how come potatoes have already emerged from the soil?
Qi Qing suddenly became curious, and she directly planed out the potato that came out with her hands.
Looking at the potato that was bigger than her fist, Qi Qing's eyes widened in surprise.
Is there such a big potato?
In order to confirm what she thought, she could not help uprooting the whole potato vine, and as a result, a long string of potatoes was pulled out.
This time, Qi Qing was really startled.
She has never planted potatoes, and her father and brother usually take care of these two fields, so she occasionally helps with watering and pulling out weeds.
But during the time I returned to my hometown, I also learned a lot of knowledge about the crops. It is said that a potato vine can grow up to six or seven potatoes.
But the potato she dug up, she carefully counted it twice, and there were actually sixteen potatoes, the smallest of which was the size of a child's fist.
What amazing yield is this?
Then, she couldn't help crying out for her mother and sister-in-law.
The potatoes grown in their fields are really scary.
"What? All mature? Let me see."
Shen Yuerong was slightly surprised, and hurriedly stepped into the potato field to check.
"My God! Why so many?"
Shen Yuerong was startled when she saw the bunch of potatoes in her daughter's hand.
"Xiaoqing, are the potatoes in your hand really dug out of our home?"
Qi Qing replied forcefully, "That's for sure, mother, you see there's a small hole in the ground."
Hearing this, Shen Yuerong glanced into the ground, and she saw a small pit in the ground.
"What's the matter, our potatoes are harvested early?"
Shen Yuerong looked at the long string of potatoes in amazement, each one seemed to be ripe.
"Mother, let's dig another one and see if we don't know."
Qi Qing looked eager to try, she wanted to see if other potato vines had grown so many potatoes.
"Yes, let me try it out."
After saying that, Shen Yuerong squatted down directly, picked a potato nearby and started to dig soil in the ground.
Qin Tianru, who was beside him, immediately understood in his heart when he saw the bunch of potatoes that Qi Qing had picked up.
Needless to say, she must have improved the potato's genes with her abilities before, which increased the yield of this potato.
To be honest, she doesn't know how many potatoes will be grown from potatoes that have been nourished by supernatural powers, but now it seems that the output is indeed amazing, completely more than twice the normal output.
Of course, the potato fields in the village have also been nourished by her powers, but only twice, once just after the potatoes were planted, and once when the potatoes were blooming.
And the potato field of their family is naturally nourished by supernatural powers several times more. Now that their family has a bumper potato harvest, the potato production in the village should not be too bad.
At least it must be higher than what the village used to plant in the past.
"Well!"
Qi Qing's eyes widened again, her mouth was wide enough to stuff an egg.
"1, 2, 316, 17, 18, 19, 20!"
After counting the bunch of potatoes, Qi Qing couldn't help swallowing her throat. She thought that the potato she dug up just now was a special one, and other potato vines would definitely not be able to grow so many potatoes.
How could she know that her mother dug out a random potato plant, and there were actually twenty potatoes, four more potatoes than hers.
"Is that too much?"
Shen Yuerong was shocked, looking at the potatoes in her hands, she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
She had never heard that a single potato vine could produce so many potatoes.
She couldn't help but wonder, are their potatoes still normal?
"Mother, Xiaoqing, since the potatoes are ripe, let's take them."
Qin Tianru was still a little dazed when he saw the two of them, so he couldn't help but remind him.
I originally thought that the potatoes would have to wait for another half a month, but I didn’t expect them to be mature by now. In this case, there is no need to continue to stay in the field.
"Ooh~ Okay, take it."
Shen Yuerong came back to her senses, replied naively, and then placed a long string of potatoes in her hands with trembling hands on the open space next to her.
"I'll go get the farm tools."
Qi Qing suppressed the turbulent emotions in her heart, and quickly ran to the front yard to get a few shovels.
The open space in the backyard is limited, so the vegetable field that was reclaimed at the beginning was not very wide, so when cultivating potato seedlings, they planted them at a close interval.
If she digs with a hoe, she is worried that the potatoes will be damaged. Besides, there are so many potatoes from a single potato vine. I am afraid that the whole ground is full of potatoes, right?
So, after thinking about it, she brought a hand shovel for transplanting flowers and plants, and prepared to plan out potato skewers little by little.
So, the three women squatted in the potato field and began to plan potatoes one by one.
When Qi Han came back, the three of them were transporting potatoes to the open space in the front yard.
"This is. Can the potatoes be harvested?"
Looking at the potatoes that had been piled into hills, Qi Han was slightly surprised.
Will the potatoes ripen too early?
After thinking about it, he thought of the special ability of his daughter-in-law again, and his heart was quickly relieved.
"Yes, brother, we have a bumper harvest of potatoes! Let me tell you."
Qi Qing was in a state of excitement. Seeing the elder brother asked about it, she couldn't help but start talking to him.
After listening, Qi Han looked at the pile of potatoes on the ground indifferently, his daughter-in-law was mighty!
Finally, the four of them worked together to weigh the dug out potatoes, which totaled more than 650 kilograms.
"Boss, you're right? With just such a piece of land, can you have such a high yield?"
Shen Yuerong fell into self-doubt again after hearing Qi Han's report. Although she already knew that there were a lot of potatoes, she was still shocked by the total output.
She thought that such a piece of land could only receive more than 200 kilograms of potatoes at most, but she did not expect that it would be more than doubled.
Qi Han said righteously: "That's right, it's just so much output."
"That's great! Our vegetable patch is just different."
Qi Qing cheered happily, which also meant that they would have plenty of potatoes to eat next.
That night, several dishes related to potatoes were placed on the Qi family's dining table.
"Well, this shredded potato is delicious."
"Braised potatoes are also delicious."
"I think our potatoes are delicious."
"Yes, I think so too."
