“It seems like my plan is going to fail.” Zhou Ying spoke with a depressed look. “What’s the plan?”

“The white potato vines. I was thinking of bringing some to the manor to feed the cattle and sheep. I just let the news out this morning.”

Gu Chengrui pondered for a moment and said, “Aren’t the white sweet potatoes in the space mature?

“Let’s go to the manor together to help harvest the sweet potatoes. I’ll cover for you to take some out from the interspace.”

“That’s fine too. By the way, you can serve the dishes first. You can start eating once the fire is lit.”

“Alright,” he said. After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he walked out and served the dishes on the table.

After Gu Chengrui brought the dishes back, the patriarch and Manager Liu came over to help him with the dishes.

Manager Liu looked at the white sweet potatoes on the table and asked in surprise, “Miss Zhou, you can even boil these sweet potatoes?”

“Yes, but try to eat them last. It fills your stomach quickly.”

“I see. I’ll have a taste of white sweet potato as well.”

“What? You’ve been guarding such a large sweet potato field and haven’t eaten any of it?”

“I can’t bear to. I’ve only eaten the sweet potato vines.” After Manager Liu finished speaking, he began to help serve the dishes.

By the time they were almost done, the charcoal was already burning. After it was packed, Gu Chengrui carried it in.

In the end, Zhou Ying gave them a jar of sorghum wine weighing about five pounds and then returned to the kitchen to use the remaining soup to make a sour lamb soup. They all had a full meal.

After the meal, the group began collecting the white sweet potatoes in the village. Of course, they didn’t take them for free. The Third Prince’s price was ten coppers per pound, which was quite a high price.

Therefore, most of the villagers were willing to give up their harvest. After all, they could start planting again next spring.

Of course, Zhou Ying’s house was the first stop. After leaving 1,000 pounds of white potatoes, the remaining 6,000 pounds were taken away.

After they left, Zhou Ying simply flattened the land and planted brown mustard, bok choy, and spinach.

She stored half of the sweet potatoes in the cellar and planned to peel the other half with a paring knife, cut it into small pieces, and turn it into sweet potato rice to eat while the sun was still up.

“Rui, how many pounds of sweet potatoes yielded in one acre of land throughout the village?” Zhou Ying inquired after dinner.

“I’m not too sure. But overall, it should be around 6,000 pounds of white sweet potatoes per acre. The post-planted ones are slightly worse but still good overall.”

“That’s good. At least we can ensure that every family has food to eat.” Zhou Ying said.

The couple began helping harvest the white potatoes at the manor over the next three days. Of course, they would also bring out some white potato vines from her interspace from time to time.

However, because of Uncle Nian, she didn’t dare take out too much. She only took about twenty acres of white potato vines.

After the planted white sweet potatoes were harvested, the Third Prince asked Manager Liu, “How many pounds of sweet potatoes are there in this manor?”

“I’ve just weighed it. The ones in the fields are about 8,000 pounds. The ones in the grasslands yielded a little less, about 5,000 pounds.

“By the way, there’s another batch that was planted late. Zhou Ying meant to wait another month before harvesting them.” Manager Liu paused for a moment before continuing, “If we’re talking about the best harvest of white sweet potatoes, it’s Zhou Ying’s and her husband’s. The yield per acre is more than 9,000 pounds.”

“It’s said that it’s because her family’s sweet potatoes have never been short of water. I think we should really do as she said and find a sandy land with sufficient water to plant them.”

“How many acres are left?” the Third Prince nodded in agreement and asked.

“About 300 acres; I was the one who planted it after they started.”

“Keep them all. Other than the rations for the people in the village, they are also for next year’s seeds.

“You’ll also have to stay in the village after harvesting the white potatoes. First, you have to protect the safety of the husband and wife, and second, you must protect the cattle, sheep, and the remaining seeds.

“If the next year turns out well, you can work with County Magistrate Kong to promote sweet potatoes in Yunhe County..”
