Jiangmen's direct daughter is busy farming

Chapter 197 Returning to the Field (3)
Bai Lu, Han Lu, Li Dong, and Xiao Xue listened very carefully, and watched Jingyue's seedling raising steps very carefully, not daring to let go of even a small detail.They also memorized meticulously what Jingyue said next about eggplants.

The soil in the last nursery room reserved for Jingyue is sandy loam, and the most suitable for planting is watermelon, which is a favorite fruit in summer.

"These black seeds are watermelon seeds! Watermelon is a fruit with a sweet and juicy taste. It is the best fruit for refreshing and quenching thirst in summer, and it is also a fruit that we need to vigorously develop in the future. However, planting watermelon is no better than other vegetable seeds. Grafting is required, and the seedling greenhouse needs to be disinfected, covered with mulch, baked and heated. I will tell you the specific method, and I will do it myself from watermelon seedlings to planting to the open field. You just need to study hard. .”

There are more types of vegetables and fruits in Xichao than in other countries, but compared to modern times, compared to the new seeds in the Jingyue box, there are still too few.Therefore, she wants to grow watermelons that do not exist in time and space, so as to bring refreshing refreshment to the people here in summer.

One month later, all the spring seedlings in Yanting were almost over. Bailu and Lidong had already started transplanting the seedlings in suitable fields. The watermelons were all grafted and planted in a sandy loam field at the foot of Yanting Mountain. .

After Yanting's matter was dealt with, Jingyue and Xiao Chenyu went directly to another open grain base in Huazhou——Waichi.

Weichi is in the southwest of Huazhou. This place used to be an ancient town. The farmland with a radius of [-] miles is all loam and sandy loam. There were no crops that were particularly suitable for this kind of soil. Ever since sweet potatoes and potatoes were planted by Jingyue, and After being planted on a large scale by Xiao Chenyu, this ancient town began to revitalize itself.

This is the second time for Jingyue to visit Waichi. The first time she went to the field to conduct a field survey and told the farmers in charge of planting sweet potatoes and potatoes how to carry out crop rotation and planting.

However, this time, Xiao Chenyu and Xiao Chenyu disguised themselves into Wichi, and she found that the ancient town of Waichi was completely different from the last time she came here.

In the past, the walls of Weichi ancient town were dilapidated, the roads were dirty, and the people were sparsely populated. Today, the ancient town has a completely new look, with people coming and going everywhere, and the streets have become cleaner.

"Is this still Wai Chi?" Jingyue and Xiao Chenyu walked on the street, looking around, as if it was her first time here.

"Of course!" Looking at Jingyue's novel eyes, Xiao Chenyu smiled unnaturally.

This time, only Leng Mei followed around Chi Jingyue, while Xiao Chenyu was still surrounded by Long Wu. When the four of them were walking in the street one after the other, they saw several people arguing in front of a shop. , Their loud voices can be heard across the crowd.

"Of course our yield per mu is the highest in Lizhou, and the seedlings Master gave us are of the highest quality." A middle-aged man with the appearance of an official said.

"Our Yingzhou has the best soil quality, and the seedlings are all the same. Naturally, our Yingzhou has the highest yield per mu." The voice of a simple farmer.

"How can you compare to us in Weizhou? We have abundant water, and the soil quality and seedlings are of the highest quality. Therefore, we still have the highest yield per mu."

"We have the highest yield per mu!"

Listening to the quarrel of these people, Jingyue found it very interesting, so she asked Lengmei to find out what happened.

Soon, Leng Mei walked up to Jingyue and Xiao Chenyu and said, "Miss, these people are all farmers from various states who came to Huazhou Waichi to learn how to grow sweet potatoes and potatoes. Now that the seedling period of Waichi is over, they They wanted to take the seedlings that the prince promised to them back to their respective places, so they ordered a carriage in this shop, and they didn't expect to argue over the yield per mu."

"It turned out to be like this! Before the land has even started to be planted, they are already working hard. This is a good momentum." Jingyue rolled her eyes, then suddenly turned her head and smiled and said to Xiao Chenyu, "Yu, how about You hold a sweet potato and potato competition in Huazhou every year. When the time comes, which place will take out the sweet potatoes and potatoes that are big and good, then it will be the master. The master will not only be rewarded with silver, but also get the imperial decree of the emperor. ,how?"

"Okay!" Xiao Chenyu didn't have any objection, Jingyue's idea was always the best.

Half an hour later, Jingyue and Xiao Chenyu arrived at Waichi's grain base, and Sun Bo was in charge of raising seedlings and farming and giving lectures to all the students in Waichi, while other things were left to Long San and Long Qi.

"Second Miss, you are finally here!" When Uncle Sun saw Jingyue, the heart that had been hanging in his heart for a long time finally fell to the ground.

Although he dealt with the farmland all day long, he more or less knew about the rumors about Jingyue, and he was always worried that something would happen to Jingyue. Fortunately, the heavens had mercy on Jingyue and she was well.

"Uncle Sun, you have worked hard during this period!" Uncle Sun is not young anymore, and he has to help her manage the experimental field, teach others about farming, and help take care of the sweet potatoes and potatoes that surround Chi. It's really embarrassing for his old man.

"What did the second lady say, Uncle Sun, I don't work hard at all. It is an honor for me to do my part for the people of Xichao." Uncle Sun said the truth.

Ever since Jingyue taught him a lot about farming, Uncle Sun, who has been farming all his life, discovered that many of his previous farming methods were wrong, and that with a slight change, one mu of land could produce a lot more grain.He didn't want more farming people to follow in his footsteps, so he taught these students from various states and counties very carefully. Speaking of which, Jingyue was his and everyone's farming master.

"Uncle Sun, you only need to come here to teach the students how to farm every year in Weichi. You are from the northern suburbs of our Song family. Now, it's time to go home." Someone in Xiao Chenyu has been studying with Uncle Sun for a long time. Planting sweet potatoes and potatoes, so Uncle Sun didn't need to stay in Waichi any longer, he had to follow her back to the Song family's northern suburb farm.

"Everything is told by the second lady!" Uncle Sun also missed his little grandson.

After Jingyue wandered around the [-]-acre sweet potato field, she and Xiao Chenyu returned to his new village in Weichi.

"Master, princess, you take me away too, I don't want to just face sweet potato seedlings all day long." Long Qi looked at Jingyue and Xiao Chenyu pitifully and said.

"Long Qi, I think this place is very suitable for you! Long San, follow us back to Beijing!" Jingyue looked at the two deliberately and said.

"Princess, you are biased!" Long Qi jumped up from the kneeling ground as soon as he heard that Jingyue was going to take Long San away and not take him.

"I'm partial, what can you do to me! Hahaha!" Jingyue said with a big laugh.

"The subordinates can't do anything to you, alas - who made my life miserable, Long Qiyi, when I was a child, I had no parents and no mother to love me, but when I grow up, my brothers and masters don't love me, and finally I have a kind mistress, so don't pity me! Alas—my life is so miserable!" Long Qi almost burst into tears when he said that.
