Chapter 474: High-Yielding Corn (1/3)

In the blink of an eye

The time has come to the end of March, the twelfth day of the second lunar month.

Farmers in the south are already busy starting spring ploughing and planting corn.

Rice is planted a little later than corn because rice needs more rain, so it usually comes in mid to late March, when the rainy season arrives on a large scale.

Early that morning, Zhang Feng had just finished purchasing the villagers' vegetables and sent away the truck that was pulling vegetables, when he was stopped by the village chief.

"Xiaofeng, isn't it time to plant corn? Everyone wants to ask the cooperative if there are any good varieties to recommend?"

Everyone knows that cooperatives have great magical powers, to be precise, Zhang Feng has great magical powers, and any good seeds can be obtained.

Yuxiang rice, rouge rice, all kinds of high-grade vegetable seeds, everyone's taste has been raised by these high-tech seeds, and now we want to let everyone plant a pound of ordinary corn, where do we still have the desire to plant.

But what are the peasants doing if they don't farm? It is impossible to abandon all the land at home, right? So everyone paid attention to Zhang Feng, hoping to get better corn seeds from him.

"What? are you still going to plant corn?"

Originally, Zhang Feng thought that the villagers had made money and were not ready to plant corn, after all, planting corn is purely laborious and unprofitable, and the output of one mu of land is more than 1,000 catties, and the income of more than 1,000 yuan is more than 1,000 yuan after working hard for half a year.

"Actually, it's not that everyone wants to plant corn, and some people want to plant fruit trees or something, but everyone is used to planting corn!

Planting corn is a habit that has been cultivated for thousands of years, and even if Zhang Feng does not provide high-grade seeds, it is estimated that there will still be many people in the village who grow ordinary corn, which is the strong inertia of habit formation.

"Well, tell everyone to wait for a while, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow. Zhang Feng thought about it and prepared to systematically learn about the situation of corn seeds.

"Hehe, okay, I'll go and inform everyone. Hearing Zhang Feng's words, the uncle suddenly laughed, knowing that the matter of corn seeds must have been done.

Although Zhang Feng clearly agreed, the uncle knew that Zhang Feng would definitely be able to help everyone find better corn seeds.

……

When he got home, Zhang Feng turned on the system and began to look for suitable corn seeds.

High-yield No. 7 has super drought tolerance and lodging resistance, with a yield of 10,000 catties per mu.

Zhang Feng shook his head, this yield is too terrifying, and it is not suitable to take it out now.

"Hey! High-yield No. 1 is good, with a production capacity of 3,500 catties per mu, which is about the same as the best corn now. ”

However, Zhang Feng's favorite is still Fruit No. 1, which not only has a high yield, but a production capacity of more than 2,000 catties per mu, and if it is intensively cultivated, the yield is higher, and the maximum can reach 27,800 catties.

And its taste is sweet and delicious, it is a very good fruit corn, not only nutritious, but also super good taste, want to put it on the market, should be able to sell at a higher price.

Therefore, Zhang Feng chose Fruit No. 1 and High-yield No. 1 as an alternative, and let everyone choose by themselves tomorrow, and then exchange it directly from the system.

…………

At noon, with the information on two kinds of corn, Zhang Feng came to the uncle's house.

"Uncle, I have two kinds of corn information, you let everyone take a look first, see which one to plant, how much is needed, and when everyone counts it, you can notify me." ”

"Hehe, okay, I'll let you know later. As he spoke, Uncle began to open the introduction of the two kinds of corn.

The uncle's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he was very surprised, he didn't expect the corn seeds provided by Zhang Feng to be so good, which was beyond his imagination.

handed over the information to the uncle, and then Zhang Feng said goodbye and left.

As soon as he walked to the door of Uncle Erniu's house, he met the little duck, a monkey, and the little guy shouted with a smile when he saw Zhang Feng:

"Crazy brother!!"

"The madman is coming......" Hearing the voice, Uncle Er Niu walked out with a smile.

"Look at your hen, listless, if you want me to say just slaughter it!!" Zhang Feng walked around the yard and said with a smile.

"If you kill it, will it have spirits?" asked Zhang Feng with a cute face.

Suddenly, there was silence in the courtyard, and Zhang Feng and Uncle Erniu looked at each other, some looking at each other.

No, Zhang Feng couldn't help but laugh and said:

"Haha, Uncle Erniu, your son is really talented, this chicken has been slaughtered, and he can be more energetic!!"

Hearing Zhang Feng's laughter, the little duck finally reacted, yes, the chickens have been slaughtered, where is the spirit?

"Oops!Crazy brother, you're bullying me again!!"

"Hehe, the next time the little guy speaks, do you have to use your brains to know??" Zhang Feng touched the duckling's head and felt that this guy was really cute.

"!!Stay where you are cool, and tease my son as soon as you come!!" Uncle Er Niu rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"Okay, okay!!Since you're not welcome, I'll go!!" Thirty-six plans to go are the best plan, Zhang Feng smiled and walked home.

……

I have to say that the uncle's efficiency is high, and the number of villagers for two kinds of corn seeds was counted in the afternoon of the same day.

"Xiao Feng, this is the amount that everyone needs, can you see if you can get it?" the uncle asked Zhang Feng with an expectant expression.

Fruit No. 1: 120 kg in total.

High Yield No. 1: 80 kg in total.

"Why are so many people choosing High-Yield No. 1?" Zhang Feng asked with a frown, according to which Growing Fruit No. 1 must be more profitable.

"Hehe, Xiaofeng, you don't know what everyone thinks, although high-yield No. 1 is not profitable, but everyone needs food to feed the New Year pigs, the home-raised New Year pigs are not only delicious, but also reassuring, aren't they?" The uncle smiled, he also chose a pound of high-yield No. 1 seeds, in fact, everyone had similar ideas.

"I see!!" After thinking for a while, Zhang Feng reacted, almost every family in the countryside will raise some chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, especially during the Chinese New Year, no matter whether they have money or not, they almost have to kill a New Year pig, which is related to everyone's face.

Think about the Chinese New Year, everyone kills pigs for the New Year, and the life is lively, if you don't kill one of them, then that can work? That's why so many people want to plant high-yield No. 1.

Of course, most of the villagers want both, planting both fruit No. 1 and high-yield No. 1, making money and eating meat.

"By the way, Xiaofeng, there is one more question......"

Seeing that the uncle wanted to speak and stopped, Zhang Feng asked curiously

"What's the problem, uncle?"

"Is it the sales problem of fruit corn?" Uncle Fruit Corn has also understood, this thing has never appeared in Qingshan, and it must be difficult for everyone to accept this new variety.

So what if you work hard to grow corn and can't sell it?

"Uncle, don't worry, like vegetables, the cooperative is responsible for purchasing, and fruit and corn are a dollar. Zhang Feng smiled and said, of course, each corn cob must reach a certain size.

"Hehe, that's good!!That's good!!" After getting Zhang Feng's exact answer, the uncle finally felt relieved.
