Once the spring harvest was finished, the final tally showed that Viscount Leslie's estate, with the twenty-one hectares reclaimed last year and the seven hectares already under cultivation all planted with wheat, had produced a staggering total of over fifty thousand kilograms!
With one hectare equal to fifteen mu, the wheat yield on Viscount Leslie's estate came to roughly 120 to 125 kilograms per mu.
Although that was still far below the high yields on Earth, which reached at least 250 kilograms and sometimes exceeded 500 kilograms, it was quite close to the yields in ancient times, before technology on Earth had developed.
Besides, the yield per mu on Viscount Leslie's estate was not what mattered. What mattered was the total harvest.

Yet after he used the Farmland Magic Machinery to reclaim another twenty-one hectares last autumn, this spring's harvest had suddenly broken through the fifty-thousand-kilogram mark, reaching a full four times the previous total!
Although everyone had been somewhat prepared for this result, they were still deeply shocked when they heard the actual figure.

Since Viscount Leslie could use the Farmland Magic Machinery to improve the farmland on his estate and dramatically increase his total grain production, that meant everyone else could do the same.
Of all those people, Servini was naturally the happiest.
"President Xu, if Father knew how much we harvested here, he would be delighted." Looking at the figures in her hands, Servini could not contain the joy on her face. "Our Lampari Kingdom doesn't lack land that
