Chapter 283 Captured by her beauty?

The place where wild rice was found is in Yazhou District, a place called Silt Village.

The reason why this village is called this is because more than half of the land in the village is silt soaked by sea water, making it impossible to plant. Most of the people in the village make a living by fishing.

Unlike other villages where the ground is cracked by dryness, the tidal flats in Silt Village are very moist.There are even large areas of silt filled with puddles.

Yuan San looked at the wet tidal flats and sighed in his heart. The drought caused large areas of fertile land to dry up and farmers lost their harvest.But the land here has water, but it's a pity that crops can't be grown.

Thinking about the purpose of his wife's trip, he felt infinite admiration and hope in his heart.

If Madam can really find a way to plant wild rice on such tidal flats, then Lingnan will no longer be afraid of drought.

Jiang Tangtang also got off the carriage and checked the nearby land.

"Madam, the road ahead is full of mud and the carriage cannot pass. I will send someone to call Xiao Xian over and ask him to report to you about the situation of wild rice."

"No, I'll go check it out myself." Jiang Tangtang knelt down and pressed the ground.

Some places are hard when stepped on, but soft underneath.The water content is good, which is good news.

As far as she knows, sea rice is a type of rice that can grow on tidal flats and is not afraid of short-term immersion in sea water.

I just don’t know if sea water can be used for irrigation when there is a serious water shortage?

Anyway, let’s try it out first!

"Then I will bring a horse over, and you can ride over to avoid soiling your shoes and socks." Yuan San was very anxious when he saw that Jiang Tangtang's shoes were about to step into the mud.In his mind, Jiang Tangtang is a queen, just like a queen.

How could such a noble person step in the mud?

Jiang Tangtang didn't take it seriously, "It doesn't matter if your shoes and socks are dirty, just go back and change them."

If a person comes to study how to grow rice and is afraid of the mud on the ground and doesn't even want to get his shoes and socks dirty, how can there be any research results?
Of course, she is an outsider who relies on the golden finger of space to run around the world. She said that she is a bit sorry for the researchers.

She now only regards herself as a real farmer.

Seeing Jiang Tangtang walking alone in the mud, the guards dismounted and walked forward with Jiang Tangtang.

After Xiao Xian and his men found the crops that looked like wild rice, they set up camp on the spot and guarded several crops that looked like wild rice.

They had brought dry food, and it was not a hot day, so sleeping in the wild was nothing.The difficulty is that there is no water to drink.

Several people had already finished drinking the water in their water bags, but there was so much water on the beach, but there was nothing drinkable.

Ye Dao's matter is serious and he doesn't dare to leave easily.He asked Peng Yang to take a few people to guard the side while he went outside to look for water.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Xian went away for a whole day and didn't come back.Peng Yang and others were worried about Xiao Xian's safety and couldn't bear the thirst. When they were about to go looking for someone, Jiang Tangtang came with someone.

Seeing Jiang Tangtang, Peng Yang felt like he was seeing a savior, "Madam, head... Brother Xiao went to look for water and hasn't come back yet. I don't know if something happened."

Jiang Tangtang saw that the man's lips were dry and cracked, and he was seriously short of water. He hurriedly ordered the accompanying escort to take off the water bags and give them to them. He also told Yuan San, "Take someone to search nearby. Let’s see what happens.”

Yuan San hesitated.

The number of guards around the lady is relatively large, but a team has been sent to deliver things to the general. Now only he and a team of people are following the lady.

If he takes people away again, if something goes wrong, he will be completely responsible for his death.

Peng Yang took the initiative and said, "Madam, I'd better lead someone to look for him! We are familiar with Brother Xiao, so it will be easier to find him."

Jiang Tangtang randomly ordered a few guards to follow Peng Yang, "Then you take them to find the person, and bring the remaining water and dry food with you."

She felt that with Xiao Xian's skills, it was unlikely that he would be unable to escape from danger. She felt that it was more likely that he would get lost or be delayed by other things.Then he said: "Bring more medicine for heatstroke and trauma. Yuan San, please tell them how to use various medicines."

Peng Yang watched the guards take out water, dry food, and medicines without hesitation, and suddenly his nose felt a little sore.

I heard that Yuan Sanhe and the guards enthusiastically told him how to use these medicines, and said that the medicine was the latest one developed by the pharmaceutical factory, and it was very useful for people suffering from heatstroke.

He somewhat understood why the leader was the first to choose to abandon his old master and choose to be loyal to Mrs. Lu.The old master only regarded them as tools, but this Mrs. Lu really regarded them as human beings.

Jiang Tangtang didn't know that a small move moved Peng Yang to the ground and decided to follow her wholeheartedly.

After giving the instructions, she went to study the wild rice.

Peng Yang took his guards to look for Xiao Xian, leaving behind a short young man named Xi Xiong to tell Jiang Tangtang the details of the wild rice they found.

"The first wild rice discovered was not here, but in the beach a little ahead. We had no experience at the beginning and didn't guard it like this. We didn't want to accidentally eat up the millet on the wild rice by the birds. . Later, when we found the wild rice here, Brother Xiao said that we would stay here to prevent it from being eaten by birds again."

In front of Xixiong were several wild rice plants that were carefully protected. These wild rice plants were taller than others.

Many of the rice ears above are still green and look like they will take some time to mature.

In addition to growing much taller than ordinary rice, the shape of this wild rice is also somewhat different from the common rice in Jiangtangtang. For example, the awns on it are particularly long.

Regardless of whether it is sea rice from the previous life, it is worth trying to plant it.

In addition to this wild rice, Jiang Tangtang also wants to find other crops suitable for growing in the saline-alkali land of the tidal flats.

Even if there is no drought, so much land can be used to feed many people.

Jiang Tangtang looked at this vast tidal flat and planned in his mind how to build a test field here.

On the other side, as Jiang Tangtang thought, Xiao Xian was not in danger, but was entangled.

The person pestering him was none other than Xiao Ye's close confidant Shen Yicheng.

Shen Yicheng, like Xiao Xian, is also a member of Ouchi.

It does not belong to any department of the Six Ministries and only takes orders from the emperor.

At this moment, Shen Yicheng looked at Xiao Xian angrily, shocked and puzzled, "Xiao Xian, you betrayed the Holy One and went to serve the rebellious ministers and traitors. Are you worthy of the Holy King's cultivation of you?"

He, like Xiao Xian and other important family members, were all orphans, but among them, he was the only one who was particularly valued by the emperor and was given the national surname.

He felt that even if everyone in the world betrayed the emperor, he, Xiao Xian, should not betray the emperor.

But he really didn't expect that Xiao Xian led his people out to perform the mission, and in the end not only betrayed the emperor, but also fell into the arms of the enemy and worked for the enemy.

Even if Xiao Xian was killed while performing a mission, it would be easier for him to accept than watching him defect to the enemy and serve the enemy.

Xiao Xian frowned slightly, "Why are you here?"

Shen Yicheng became angrier when he saw him like this, "Are you still worried about that treacherous traitor? I want to see what kind of ecstasy the traitor gave you to drink to make you forget the kindness of the Holy Father."

Xiao Xian lowered his eyes and said nothing, thinking rapidly about Shen Yicheng's purpose of coming to Lingnan and whether he should warn his companions.

His actions fell into Shen Yicheng's eyes, but he was moved by his own words.Thinking of the emperor's kindness, I felt ashamed and did not dare to face myself.

"You betrayed the Holy One, and they asked you to do this?"

Shen Yicheng looked at the dust all over Xiao Xian's body, thinking about the news he had gathered these days, and said seriously: "That thief obviously doesn't trust you and is deliberately trying to tease you, so why should you be loyal to her? You just need to listen to me and make meritorious deeds. The emperor will definitely forgive you for your previous betrayal, and he will grant you a high-ranking official title with generous salary."

Xiao Xian sneered in his heart, he had followed that man for many years, how could he not know his methods.

He could kill the generals who had devoted themselves to guarding the river for him, let alone those who had betrayed him.

He is afraid that when he returns to the capital, what awaits him is not a high-ranking official and a generous salary, but death by a thousand cuts.

He concealed the sarcasm in his eyes and pretended to be moved, "What do you want me to do? Or arrest Jiang?"

"What, you don't want to?" Shen Yicheng joked: "I heard that Jiang is very beautiful. Could it be that you were attracted by her beauty, so you are loyal to her wholeheartedly?"
