The villain and traitor is my brother

Chapter 106 Teaching
Chu Bingwen's face turned red, "See what I'm doing? I didn't say I wouldn't learn." Then his voice became softer, "I've finished reading the first page, which page is next?"

They turned to the second page, and Chu Bingwen exclaimed: "Why are there still paintings?"

Zheng Qiuyun explained, "Those are illustrations of various types of seeds to facilitate your understanding. Now we will learn about corn seeds first. They are round in shape at the top and white at the bottom."

Then, Zheng Qiuyun took out a handful of corn seeds from his pocket and asked them to pass them around, "This is the corn seed."

"In order to prevent pests, medicine must be mixed before sowing. The formula of the medicine and how to mix it are written on the third page of the book. We are all among the best, so it must not be difficult to learn. You should study on your own first, and I will explain it later. The raw materials are given to you, you make the medicine and mix it into the corn seeds.”

Zheng Qiuyun bought the raw materials in the mall, and the students made it into an anti-insect seed coating agent. They then mixed the seed coating agent with water at a ratio of one to ten and mixed it evenly into the corn seeds.

The previous corn seeds were not mixed with medicines, but this time she introduced medicines carefully.When she came from Jiangzhou, she brought many things with her just to hide her from others.

"Everyone, please note that this is medicine after all. You must be careful when mixing the seeds to avoid getting them into your eyes."

A man named Meng Hao asked Zheng Qiuyun, "Sir, if this medicine is mixed with seeds, can the corn grown be edible? Isn't it also contaminated with poison?"

Zheng Qiuyun did not ignore his question, "It takes more than three months from sowing to harvesting corn seeds. The toxicity of this drug is very small and will not have any impact."

She also chose a highly efficient and low-toxic seed coating agent after careful consideration.At this stage, she does not plan to let people spray pesticides on crops to eliminate insects.

They worked all morning to mix the corn seeds with the medicine.Zheng Qiuyun said: "Think about it, everyone, how can we make corn seeds germinate in the cold winter?"

Chu Bingwen retorted loudly: "How is it possible? In the middle of winter, except for winter plum blossoms facing the snow, how can any seeds germinate?"

Zheng Qiuyun looked at him and said nothing. Chu Bingwen's tone became better, "I just felt strange, so I blurted out. I hope you can forgive me, sir."

Zheng Qiuyun then smiled and said, "It's okay, think about it carefully."

“Why do you think seeds germinate in spring?”

Meng Hao said, "Is it because it's warm?"

"Yes," Zheng Qiuyun agreed with him. "Warmth means the temperature is suitable. What's more, what's the difference between spring and winter?"

Meng Hao tried again: "The sun in spring is stronger than in winter."

Zheng Qiuyun said: "That can be classified as light, and what about rain?"

Meng Hao said: "There is more snow and less rain in winter, but there is spring rain in spring."

If it weren't for the inconvenience of holding a shovel in his hand, Zheng Qiuyun would have applauded him, "Light, temperature and water are all conditions for seed germination. If I imitate the spring and make a spring shed, will the seeds germinate?"

Meng Hao said uncertainly: "Is it okay?"

Zheng Qiuyun asked them to line up to receive the seeds and pots, "You will know after you try it."

Chu Bingwen still felt strange, "This is against the farming season. Can the crops grown be imported?"

Zheng Qiuyun thought about his question seriously, "It's snowing heavily in the capital right now, but there are still places on the border that are as warm as spring, and there are seeds germinating there. Although we go against the farming season in the capital, we are in sync with the farming season elsewhere."

"And planting corn now is just for you to learn. You have to wait until spring to really teach the people. Don't worry too much."

Meng Hao asked: "Sir, how do we make a spring shed?" "Then you have to figure it out for yourself. Let's compare whose seeds germinate the fastest. I gave each of you twenty seeds. Two pots. You can plant them in one pot, or you can plant them separately."

32 people took the seeds, half of them put soil in the pots, dug holes and buried the corn seeds in them, and the other half were thinking about how to make a spring shed.

In the evening, they returned to the Guangwen Hall and met the students who were pretending to be sick, and were laughed at mercilessly.

Qiao Yi laughed while reciting the book, "You stupid heads don't even know how to ask for leave. We have been reviewing books for a day. How about you, have you been planting land for a day?"

Those people were annoyed by what he said, but they had no way to argue. They just whispered: "What do you know? What we are doing is a great thing to bring peace to all generations."

Hearing this, not only Qiao Yi, but also other people who pretended to be sick and didn't go there also laughed, "It's just the 32 of you who want to do such a big thing to bring peace to all generations. You don't overestimate your capabilities."

Qiao Yi asked Chu Bingwen, "Brother Chu, Mr. Chu has invited the second-placed candidate in the imperial examination to teach us his experience tomorrow. Do you want to come and listen?"

Chu Bingwen struggled, but thinking about what Zheng Qiuyun said about benefiting the people, he still refused, "No, the teacher has assigned homework, and I have to finish it first."

Qiao Yi's tone was exaggerated, "Do you have farm work and schoolwork?"

Meng Hao came to Chu Bingwen's rescue, "Sir, give us twenty seeds to germinate."

Qiao Yi asked back: "There are still a few months until spring, so you are not in a hurry to finish your homework?"

Neither Meng Hao nor Chu Bingwen wanted to talk to him anymore.

During dinner time, there were more than ten people who did not go to eat. Jijiu was also very concerned about their situation. After chatting with one of the students, he asked about the whereabouts of these ten people.

The student replied: "Sir, you have left your coursework. We need to get the corn seeds to germinate as soon as possible. More than ten of them have gone to the suburbs of Beijing to consult with experienced farmers. They will definitely be back before the curfew."

Jijiu angrily scolded: "Nonsense! She has given you such a rigorous coursework, and no one cares about it? She lets the seeds germinate in the winter, why doesn't she let you go to heaven!"

The student didn't dare to talk to him, so he just waited for the alcohol to go away, wiped his mouth and ran away.Everyone was so serious. He had to dig out the seeds that had been buried in the soil and plant them again. He couldn't be so hasty.

More than ten people, including Meng Hao and Chu Bingwen, consulted the old farmers and carefully recorded the weather conditions in spring.

Before leaving, Meng Hao asked again, "Old man, besides spring, can seeds germinate at other times?"

The old farmer smiled and said: "Yes, it will germinate faster in summer!"

Meng Hao asked about Xia Tian's situation again, and the old farmer told him carefully.Only then did Meng Hao understand why Zheng Qiuyun wanted to give them ten basins.

After returning, everyone was eager to start planting.Some people put the seeds next to the fire, some people covered the seeds with thick clothes, and some people took the seed pots into their beds.

Meng Hao first planted nine pots. Three pots were at a temperature similar to spring, three pots were at a temperature similar to summer, and three pots were at the current temperature.These nine pots are also subdivided, some are watered more, some are watered less, some get more sun, and some get less sun.To prevent spoiled seeds, he planted two seeds in each pot.
