Chapter 194: Test Field
"This ......" The villagers began to hesitate when they saw Shumin's sworn appearance. The old people kept shaking their heads www.biquge.info pen & fun & pavilion, obviously not particularly trusting the two crops of rice proposed by Shumin, but the young people had other plans in their hearts.
Anyway, no matter whether the two crops of rice succeed or fail, at least one crop can be guaranteed to be harvested, which is worth a try.
"What do you say at this point, Lizheng?"
Li Zheng was so angry with these villagers that his face turned pale at the beginning, and he had been sitting on the side without speaking, and when he saw that everyone's eyes were on him, he sorted out his thoughts and said, "This is also a method, but after all, it is the first time to try, and I dare not say that it can be planted immediately." Why don't you vote, and if you are willing to try two crops of rice, you can raise your hand. ”
One, two, three...... It took a long time before someone slowly raised their hands, but it was obvious that there were not many people in favor, and they were all posteriors. In the village's parlance, it's all unreliable guys.
Seeing the reaction of the villagers, Shumin was a little disappointed and glanced at Li Zheng in frustration. Li Zheng coughed his throat and said, "If you are so opposed, raise your hand again." ”
After a while, a few people raised their hands, but after such a comparison, it was found that there were still more in favor than against. The rest is on the sidelines. Hope burned in Shumin's eyes again.
"I know that the concern is that if the seedlings are not raised well, the planting time will be delayed. Right?"
"In this case, I announce to you that I use the 100 acres of land rewarded by the Queen Mother as a seedling breeding test field, if the seedlings are successful, you can directly take the seedlings from me and plant, if it is time to sow seeds, the seedlings have not been cultivated, and you will not delay the sowing. How?"
Seeing that the wait-and-see people accounted for the majority, Shumin directly dispelled the worries in their hearts.
Everyone was in an uproar, no one thought that Shu Min would directly contribute her 100 acres of land, and some of the worries in her heart were also offset.
"Hui'er Niang, after all, those two crops of rice are your new stuff, what will happen in the end, there are still many variables in the result, for the benefit of everyone, I have to ask everyone to make two preparations, if you have no fruit before the beginning of March, we will still sow the same seeds as before. Li Zheng said, "But until then, what you want to do, the village will support you unconditionally!"
The matter has come to this, there is no difference between doing and not doing, Shumin's 100 acres of land have been contributed, can he not fully support this positive one?
If he failed, he would only lose some money and labor, and he still felt that there was little hope of success.
Not only him, but also the old people in the village felt that there was little hope.
However, this is not a way out, it is better than sitting still.
"Zhengshun, during this time, you will pick a few farming experts, follow Hui'er Niang, what does she need, you will do your best to help her. ”
At the end, Li Zheng also said to Zheng Shun. Sooner or later, he's going to have to take over his class, and it's time for him to get a good experience.
At this point, the meeting was almost all dispersed, each with the same thoughts, some shaking their heads, some whispering, and they all dispersed and went home.
Li Zheng seemed to be getting a lot older all of a sudden, stood up weakly, and went back to the study silently without saying anything to Shumin.
He has worked for the welfare of the village all his life, but he didn't expect the villagers to treat him like this, and he was hit hard.
This can't be blamed for his inability to think about it, scholars are always a little pedantic, and they take their reputation too seriously, which is really inevitable.
The village finally agreed that they would continue to study the two crops of rice, and the happiest were Shumin and Zhengjian. She asked Zhengshun to help her prepare seeds for a hundred acres of land, and asked Zhengshun to pick four or five young and strong young people to fertilize her experimental field.
Because the 100 acres of land were far away, Zhengshun also organized a group of people to build a grass house next to heaven and earth, and he and the four or five young people and Zhengjian planned to live there until the seedlings were successfully cultivated.
The fertilizer is sprinkled directly into the field, and when ploughed, it doubles and melts evenly in the soil. Because it is only January now, and there is no hurry to sow seeds, these days, Zhengshun is under the guidance of Zhengjian, leading the four or five people to cut down mangosteen, cut into bamboo slivers, and set up a small shed with ridges as a unit, and bamboo slivers are the support of these small sheds.
It's a pity that there is no plastic film at this time, so Shumin has to use straw instead, but although the heat retention of straw is good, the light transmittance is really not good, and Shumin began to have a headache for the small shed again.
Chu Feng was right, it was really not an easy thing to build a large-scale scaffolding.
Just when Baili Village received the notice from the imperial court, Yao Su, who was in Zuifeng Tower, was also sent a book by the flying pigeons in the capital.
After reading the content, he frowned slightly, "The imperial court ordered Dongfang He to be the general, leading an army of 100,000 to support the west. ”
"That emperor is really getting more and more confused, the East is rejoicing, and he is not as good as the previous generals. This prime minister is too anxious, so he pushed his people out to make meritorious contributions. I can't wait to see your face of defeat. Hahaha......"
When he received the letter, he was in a very good mood, and suddenly wanted to go to Baili Village for a walk.
"No, the kraft paper is too thick and opaque to be used. Zhengjian found more than a dozen materials on the market to build a greenhouse according to Shumin's requirements, and gave them to Shumin excitedly, but Shumin was not satisfied after reading it.
"This rag is too transparent, not warm enough. And it's expensive, I don't know how much it costs for a hundred acres! Forget about this glass, I can't afford to use it!"
"Although it's better than kraft paper, it's still not light transmittance!"
"Alas...... If you really can't find a suitable one, you can only use plant ash and straw, but they only play a protective role in the seeds that germinate in the early stage, if there is no suitable material in front of the cold air, they will still freeze to death even if they germinate?!" Shumin's brows furrowed deeply, and he was a little anxious in his heart.
"Zhengjian, I have to trouble you to run more and see if you can find a material with better light transmission than oiled paper. ”
Yao Su was familiar with the road, and he came to Minyuan, the door was not closed, he walked straight in, but saw Shumin sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard, and there was a table of messy things on the stone table, she chattered at Zhang Zhengjian while flipping through it.
Zhang Zhengjian, on the other hand, rarely spoke, holding a charcoal pen and quickly jotting down what she had said.
Yao ...... Master. Seeing Yao Su enter the door, Zhang Zhengjian became nervous and scared.
There was no way, his kick almost made him go underground to reunite with his parents, and he had a great shadow on him.
"You're here. Shumin didn't raise his head, still looking for what he wanted in that pile of items.
She can make plastic, but she has to design the equipment to make the plastic first, and she has to collect the resin, which takes time.
And what she lacks most now is time, it is now the middle of January, and there is still a month at most, and the seeds must be planted. And in order to ensure quality and quantity, she also plans to advance a little earlier.
"What are you doing here?" Yao Su couldn't help but be a little curious when he saw that it was all a pile of garbage.
"I'm looking for a material that is sealed but transmits light well, and the glass is too expensive. Shumin raised her eyes to him and said, her eyes sparkling, as if she thought he might have the answer she wanted.
"What's the use of such a thing?" Yao Su was stared at by her, not feeling disgusted at all, but instead joined their discussion.
"We're working on two crops of rice and we need this kind of thing. With it, I can make the seeds germinate and grow early, which is very crucial. Shumin replied
She's not dead yet? She's such a stubborn guy. Yao Su told her early on that the climate here was not suitable for planting two crops of rice, but who knew that she still went to study it with all her brains.
"How sure are you?" he had planned to persuade her to give up again, but that was the end of his mouth.
"Seventy percent. Shumin thought for a moment and said. After all, it was clear in theory, but there were too many variables in the actual operation process, and she didn't dare to pack tickets.
"Seventy percent?" Yao Su's heart was surprised, if she really succeeded in researching, the national strength of the Apocalypse Kingdom could at least double!
Seeing the pressurized water mercury installed in the courtyard, he suddenly had great confidence in the two crops of rice she was talking about: "Maybe she can do a miracle." ”
"Is that thing you talking about only having two requirements: sealing and translucent?" he asked, suppressing the excitement in his heart.
"No, it needs to be waterproof. Shumin thought for a moment and replied.
"How much do you need?"
"It's about 100 acres of land. ”
"Okay, I'll help you inquire. Yao Su replied excitedly, he was engaged in luck, as long as it was something owned by the Apocalypse, he could help her find it.
"Hehe, then thank you Master Yao. Yao Su took the initiative to help, and Shumin's expression was a lot more relaxed.
"Mrs. Qin, you're welcome, Yao has a small request. ”
A businessman is a businessman, and he doesn't let go of any interests, Shumin's heart darkened, and he said, "Master Yao, please speak." ”
"If it's convenient, can Madame take Yao to visit your experimental field?" Yao Su couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, and he never cared about farming, and suddenly became interested in the 100 acres of magical rice fields.
"Of course you can, but after a while, when I go to the rice field, I will go to the drunken wind building to look for you. Shumin replied.
As long as the two crops of rice are developed, it will not be a secret, and Shumin is not shy about it.
"That's great, wait for my news. Yao Su was very excited, even happier than when he learned the news just now, and without waiting for Shumin to say anything, he immediately took his leave and went back.
"Why are you so afraid of him?" As soon as Yao Su came, Zhengjian looked trembling, and Shumin said angrily.
"Hehe......" Zhengjian touched his heart, felt that there was still some pain there, and said with a bitter smile, "Although Master Yao has the grace of reinvention to me, every time I see him, I think of his fatal kick." I can't help but feel pain in my heart. (To be continued.) )
