Li Jin was also digging every one or two meters, and stopped after digging four or five plants. Xu Qingfeng followed behind to check the weight of the sweet potatoes. Every sweet potato plant was growing very well.
It’s almost one sweet potato weighing two kilograms plus five or six sweet potatoes weighing one kilogram.
"Yes, the sweet potatoes here can basically be harvested." Xu Qingfeng said.
In contrast, the maturity period of these sweet potatoes is one or two months shorter, which means that they can be harvested twice a year.
"Let someone dig it out tomorrow." Li Jin said directly.
"If there are so many potatoes and sweet potatoes, leave some of them and send the rest to the regiment headquarters, and then ask the regiment leader to hand them over to the headquarters and then send them to Yan'an for cultivation." Xu Qingfeng said, as long as they are cultivated well, , the Eighth Route Army no longer has to worry about food.
"Well, I think so too." Li Jin nodded.
"And doesn't this thing ripen every two months? It can be harvested several times more." Xu Qingfeng continued.
"Not necessarily. It is estimated that only the newly cultivated sweet potatoes have this effect. Those cultivated with these later may mature faster than other sweet potatoes, but not too much faster." Li Jin hurriedly said.
The system said that only the seeds you just picked up can mature in two months, and the seeds cultivated later cannot achieve this effect.
"Yes, but a shorter maturity period is fine. As long as the yield is still this high, let alone this high, even if it is 20 to 30% less, it will be great." Xu Qingfeng said.
It is only 20 to 30% less, but the output is still much higher than other outputs, which is very good.
"Old Xu, go bury the potatoes in the ground and come back to harvest them tomorrow." Li Jin said, they didn't bring anything with them when they came here.
"Okay." Xu Qingfeng nodded and walked towards the potato field not far away.
Li Jin is also burying the dug sweet potatoes back.
He left two sweet potatoes weighing two kilograms, and used the sweet potatoes to wipe the mud off the sweet potato leaves, and then went to join Xu Qingdong.
When Li Jin arrived, Xu Qingfeng had just buried the potatoes.
"Old Xu, continue." Li Jin threw a sweet potato at Xu Qingfeng, then took out his dagger and started peeling the sweet potato, Xu Qingfeng did the same.
Li Jin bit into the peeled sweet potato, which was egg yolk.
A rattling sound came from his mouth.
"It tastes so sweet." Li Jin said as he walked.
"Yes, it's good." Xu Qingfeng nodded. Although it doesn't taste as good when eaten raw as cooked, it's not bad either.
Of course, eating it raw can cause stomach ache.
"Platoon leader, how many kilograms of potatoes and sweet potatoes do you think we should keep?" Xu Qingfeng asked.
It is necessary to hand it over, but you should also keep some for yourself, so as not to have nothing to eat when you change bases in the future.
“Let’s keep more than 20,000 jins, of which 10,000 jins, I plan to distribute to the villagers in several villages, after all, they support me so muchWe should also repay them. "Li Jin said.
Most of the young men from several villages have been sent to serve as soldiers. It is unreasonable not to provide their families with some benefits.
"Well, this can be done have. "Xu Qingfeng agreed. The first three rows had little ability to benefit the villagers.
Now that there are so many high-yielding sweet potatoes, it would be unreasonable not to give them some points so that they can have enough to eat in the future.
Besides, the Eighth Route Army wanted all the people in the world to live a good life, and what they did was equivalent to feeding some of the people in advance.
"But. Before giving them to them, several village chiefs should tell the villagers not to eat them as food, but to keep them as seeds. "Li Jin said.
If the villagers ate the sweet potatoes they got as food, I really don't know what to say.
"This is natural, even if they don't tell them, You should understand. "Xu Qingfeng said, the villagers can still distinguish between a full meal and a full meal.
"In terms of division, according to the number of people in each household, a person weighs ten pounds, and a soldier in the third platoon Family members, take ten more pounds. "Li Jin said.
They have nothing to say like this. After all, the soldiers in the third platoon will go to the battlefield in the future. If they are not protected, they will die on the battlefield. Their families are also the families of martyrs. Get more. Who dares to gossip?
"Okay. "Xu Qingfeng nodded.
This is the fairest way.
For example, the practice of fifty kilograms per household can easily cause dissatisfaction among households with many people, but ten kilograms per person can easily cause dissatisfaction. The kilograms are different, which means everyone gets the same amount.
The next morning, after breakfast, Li Jin had people prepare shovels and sacks.

All the soldiers gathered in the open space
"There is no training today. We are going to collect sweet potatoes and potatoes. I bought a box of cigarettes. Whoever's squad can dig the most will get it." The most cigarettes arrived. "Li Jin said slowly.
As soon as they heard this, the male soldiers' eyes gleamed. Grandma's cigarettes, they have never smoked these things.
" Platoon leader, it's not fair. We don't smoke. "A female soldier said.
"That's right, we don't smoke. "Other female soldiers also agreed.
"Of course I have not forgotten you. There are three classes of female soldiers. If the class digs more, it can get more pieces of cloth. As for this cloth, you If you want to make clothes, just make clothes, I won’t stop you. "Li Jin smiled.
"That's pretty much it. "The female soldiers suddenly smiled.
"Okay, get the shovels and sacks now, let's go." Li Jin gave the order, and all the soldiers went to get the shovels and sacks.
On the way there, several squad leaders also competed with each other.
"Old Zhao, you can't beat us, so give up. "Liu Changshun said.
"Ah, is your class comparable to my class?You should give up," Zhao Ming replied unyieldingly.
"Oh, then let's see who has the best soldiers. "Liu Changshun snorted coldly and looked back at the soldiers of the first squad.
"Squad one, are you confident that we will take first place this time?" Liu Changshun shouted.
"Yes. "The soldiers of Class 1 responded loudly.
"Class 2, do you have confidence?"
"The cigarettes are ours"
For a moment, the man The morale of the soldiers' squads was high, and the female soldiers were not to be outdone. The same few words made the female soldiers' morale also rise.
Looking at the high morale of these soldiers, Xu Qingfeng and Li. Jin couldn’t help but smile.
“Competition brings motivation. "Xu Qingfeng laughed.
Soon, everyone arrived at the potato field. Following Li Jin's order, the soldiers made their distribution and began to dig up the potatoes.
Each day Both male and female soldiers are very motivated. For male soldiers, smoking two more good cigarettes is motivation. Smoking dry cigarettes every day is not enough.
And female soldiers are also very motivated by new clothes. , nothing is better than having a new piece of clothing.
Only Li Jin and Xu Qingfeng watched the soldiers working leisurely. Please remember to collect the latest and fastest website without anti-theft. Free reading
