reborn as a poisonous woman

Chapter 240

Knowing that Zhou Qiqi came back, she hurried out to greet her.

"Your Highness, you're back, take a look at this potato." Li Daren traced his fingers around the mountain bag with an excited and proud expression.

It seems that this is the country he brought down.

Zhou Qiqi had seen it a long time ago, and she was indeed in a happy mood, but she was more curious.

"Seeing that the potato seedlings are growing well, why don't you cut some off and plant them?"

Li Daren's smile froze for a moment, and soon turned into an expression of ready to move and extremely worried.

"Your Highness, if this potato seedling is cut, will it affect the harvest?" Li Daren asked worriedly.

"No, trim it properly, maybe it will be good for growth." Zhou Qiqi said something serious that even she was not sure about.

I only know that potato stalks can be planted after cutting them. Who knows if cutting them will affect the harvest? She has never grown sweet potatoes in her two lifetimes, and she is not a graduate of an agricultural university. She thinks she can understand these things very well.

Li Daren thought for a while, and then asked: "In your Highness' opinion, should the potatoes be planted all over Heishui County first, or transported directly to other cities outside Heishui County?"

Zhou Qiqi glanced at him: "What do you think?"

Li Daren stroked his beard, pretended to be thinking, and said after a few seconds: "The old minister thinks that we should take down all the only earth and hills in Heishui County, open up wasteland and plant potatoes. But the speed of opening up wasteland is too fast." Slow, understaffed, it will be very troublesome."

After the fat man finished speaking, he looked at His Royal Highness Wang Ji pitifully.

Zhou Qiqi squinted at him: "Is this someone from the palace?"

Li Daren looked embarrassed and touched his nose: "Your Highness, this is related to people's livelihood, it is very important."

Zhou Qiqi said: "When I came back, I brought maybe [-] refugees. But they were all from Ruicheng of the Daxi Dynasty. If you have the ability to recruit them all, then those people will be given to you. .”

Li Daren: ...

Man, he wants to.

But this is not just a matter of just asking for a word. After all, people need food to live. How can he get so much food to accommodate so many people.

But Li Daren still didn't give up, he rubbed his hands and asked: "Does Your Highness have any food left?"

It is not difficult to fool a group of poor and hungry refugees. As long as there is food to fill their stomachs, they will be happy to do anything.

Zhou Qiqi nodded: "Yes."

With a swipe of the finger, the entire mountain bag and the paddy field outside the mountain bag are also included.

"These are my spare food."

Li Daren: ...

There are indeed quite a few, but except for the paddy field, he wants to use them as seed envoys.

And before His Highness said it, he didn't even think about it as His Highness's private property. Now that it was pointed out, he suddenly felt a strong sense of something bad.

"In case you say I'm too picky, I've decided now that sweet potatoes are sold for ten cents a catty, and if you buy too much, the price will increase. If you buy more than ten catties, the price will triple.

A piece of plantable sweet potato vine costs a penny, and if you buy more than ten pieces, you will get a [-]% discount.Buying sweet potato vines can be bought with money or paid for with labor.

Then it's up to you to arrange these things, not to let you work for nothing, but to give you a [-]% profit. "

Zhou Qiqi waved her hand in a very generous manner.

From thinking that it was free, to now it is only [-]%, and a certain amount of sweat has to be paid, Li Daren only feels a bolt from the blue.

If I had known... If I had known, I would not have been so cautious. Before His Highness came back, I would quickly cut and transplant the sweet potato vines, which would save a lot of money.

Zhou Qiqi added: "My personal suggestion is that people nearby buy sweet potato vines as much as possible. With the growth characteristics of this sweet potato vine, even if you only buy ten pieces, you can grow many more soon."

It's not that Zhou Qiqi is stingy, it's just that she is afraid that she won't cherish what she gives for nothing.

Li Daren pondered for a while, and felt that His Highness was right.

But after His Highness left, he realized that he was not told to lead a group of people who fled from the Daxi Dynasty to open up wasteland?

If he sold all the seedlings, what would he plant in wasteland?
Zhou Qiqi: Plant cassava.

Sun-dried cassava chips can also be used as food reserves, and can be ground into noodles to make a lot of things, not worse than sweet potatoes.

Zhou Qiqi just moved her mouth, she didn't have the heart to care about these things.

Turning around on the mountain bag, I basically saw everything, and everything was much better than she imagined, and the credits of the old King Zhou and the Queen Mother were indispensable.

These two elders are now living on the mountain bag, and it seems that they want to live here for a long time.

Zhou Qiqi didn't pay much attention to it, if she wanted to live as long as she wanted, she would stay long.

I was thinking about the group of wild boars in the mountain, so I didn't rest much, and went into the mountain early the next morning.

Sure enough, not long after entering, I found a group of wild boars in the plantain forest, and the good plantain forest was ruined.

However, this group of wild boars must have just returned, before they had time to destroy all the plantains. Many plantains are still growing well, and some of them are very attractive when they are ripe.

The fruit is quite big, as thick as her arm.

Now Zhou Qiqi seldom compares the things here with the last days, the main reason is that in the last days, a plantain can grow thicker legs, which is incomparable.

However, comparing the output of Mount Bugui with the outside, we can still clearly see the difference. Even the products produced by the Zhou Kingdom are better than those of the Daxi Dynasty because of its proximity to Mount Bugui.

Don't ask why the rice harvest is so low, it's because of pests, and besides that, there are endless birds.

Zhou Qiqi is a bit greedy for plantains, although there are more than a dozen trees planted on the mountain bag, but they haven't sprouted for long, so the plantains here don't grow well.

Finding a place where no wild boar had set foot, Zhou Qiqi flew in, chopped off the whole plantain and put it into the space.

Not willing to take advantage of these wild boars, she chopped down twenty or thirty of them before stopping.

It feels strange and boring, the plantain forest is too big, it's not worth it at all if she cuts it, it's not enough for them to eat.

One more meal, or one less meal, is not bad for them.

What was she up against a herd of wild boars?
Suddenly the wild boar rioted, and the group ran up, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains.

It must have been a disaster for the potato field. These wild boars are fat and strong, and they are even fatter than the ones they have seen before.

Flying into the air and looking forward, I discovered that the cause of the wild boar riot was gilding.

This guy has a little piglet in his mouth, probably just a month old, and it's the best roast suckling pig.

"It's pretty good at eating." Zhou Qiqi muttered, taking advantage of many wild boars running away and not many left, she sneaked out.

Taking advantage of the remaining wild boars not paying attention, they threw a lot of piglets into the hanging island.

The little piglet is so cute, how could he eat it cruelly.

It must be raised well, and when it grows up and fat, it will be slaughtered for meat.
