Chapter 50: Demand

At noon, Wang Ji was squatting on the ground, leading everyone to turn over the corn cobs drying in the yard one by one. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis freshly broken corn cob needs to be dried before it can be stored for a long time.

"Miss, go and rest, we'll do all this work." Qian Xi brought the tea cup from the house and handed it over.

"It's okay, not only does the early winter sun not shine on people. shines on the body, but it is warm. Wang Ji stood up lightly, took the teacup, and just took a sip, when he looked up, he saw Yang Lie leading a few people over in the distance.

"Big brother, why are you here?" Wang Ji put down the teacup lightly and hurriedly walked out of the courtyard, "Didn't you say that you would wait for me to return to Quanzhou in a few days and go back to Jiangzhou for the New Year together." ”

Wang Zelei smiled, and just wanted to speak, but was interrupted by another laughing voice. "Gently, why do you only see big brother?"

When Wang Ji heard this, she looked at the man beside her eldest brother. He is tall and thin, his skin is a little pale from the sun all year round, and he is not very old, but he looks like he is eighteen or nineteen years old.

"What? Even the second brother won't be called? Wang Zefeng saw his sister, who he hadn't seen for more than five years, just looked at himself and didn't speak, so he chuckled and joked, "Hey, it seems that the second brother has really failed to be a man, and he doesn't even recognize me lightly." ”

"Second brother! You are the second brother," the grinning man in front of him gradually coincided with the shadow of the young man in his memory.

"Second brother, I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?" Wang Ji turned to her second brother lightly and bowed.

"Gently, you are not as cute as when you were a child," Wang Zefeng frowned, "When you saw your second brother when you were a child, you still know that you rushed to the arms of your second brother?" Now I only know how to bow. ”

Wang Jiqing just smiled and said nothing. In her memory, there is still the little girl who rejoices when she receives the gift brought back by her second brother every year, she doesn't know that the woman and Wang Zefeng's deep brother-sister relationship, but although she has inherited those memories and emotions, she is not the original her after all. She really couldn't throw herself into the arms of a man and cry, even if that man was the brother of this body.

"Okay, second brother, don't tease lightly." Wang Zelei patted his younger brother on the shoulder, "We are already big girls, how can we still be like when we were children." ”

"Yes, in a blink of an eye, more than five years have passed, and we are a big girl," Wang Zefeng was still a little emotional, blinked again in a blink of an eye, and said with a narrow smile, "The gift brought by the second brother is not gentle?" ”

"Gifts are naturally wanted." Wang Ji said with a chuckle. "No matter whether it is the past five years or fifty years, the second brother will always be the second brother gently. How could you not want a gift from your second brother? What's more, the gift brought by the second brother this time, if she guessed correctly, should be the heavy crossbows arranged by her grandmother. With these heavy crossbows, the future safety of Tsukishima is guaranteed.

"Miss Six, you and the two royal brothers, brother and sister have a deep relationship, which makes Yang a little envious." Yang Xu saw that the three brothers and sisters of the Wang family had a family ceremony, so he came up to greet Wang Xi lightly.

"Young Island Master Yang, long time no see." Wang Ji gave a light blessing, she knew that Yang Xu was Yang Guang's only son, and there were no brothers and sisters in the family, so she was afraid that he would touch the scene, so she changed the topic, "Why did you come here with my two brothers?" ”

"Isn't it almost the New Year? I knew that Miss Six was going back to Jiangzhou for the New Year, so I sent some New Year's gifts in advance. Yang Xu pointed to the box carried by several guards behind him, "I never thought that I met two Wang brothers at sea, so I came over together." ”

"Let the young island owner break the bank." Wang Ji looked down on the box of rare treasures, "These are too many, the young island master doesn't have to be so polite." ”

"No amount is enough to withstand Miss Six's life-saving grace." Yang Xu waved his hand indifferently, and under the warm sunshine, his handsome smiling face looked extremely charming.

Wang Ji chuckled and shook her head. Yang Xu, the contrast between his appearance and his interior is too great. obviously looks like a peerless son who is as gentle as jade, but he is a good hero who crisscrosses the sea and was born as a bandit. At this time, how did she know that Yang Xu still had that ruthless and obedient side in private.

The woman in front of Yang Xu no longer refused the gift she sent, and smiled again. "I heard that there are peerless treasures hidden in the courtyard of Miss Six, and I don't usually let people look at them, so I don't know if you can let me take a look at them today?"

Wang Jiqing knew that he was talking about corn, and for the experience of getting corn seeds on a desert island, his own approach at that time was indeed a little unkind, and he deceived the father and son of the Yang family. At this time, the corn has been successfully planted, and it doesn't hurt to let him know, besides, the corn thing will be promoted sooner or later, and it won't be hidden for long.

"Young Island Master, please come here." Wang Ji thought lightly, and led the group into the courtyard.

When Yang Xu saw the corn all over the ground, his eyeholes shrank sharply. Isn't that what was in the bag on the merchant ship?

Yang Xu glanced at Wang Xiqing, and when he saw the other party nodding in acknowledgement, he sighed secretly. She knew it!

"Little sister, isn't this what I got from that merchant ship on the desert island?" Wang Zelei also recognized these corn cobs, which were almost exactly the same as those he got from a desert island.

"Young Island Master, I'm sorry, I did deceive you and Yang Island Master at the beginning, I know this thing." Wang Ji generously admitted, "I once saw the record of this thing in an ancient book of Fanbang that came from overseas. ”

Wang Ji lightly asked Yang Lie to go out with the others, and ordered him to guard outside the courtyard in person, and saw that there were only Yang Xu and his brother and sister in the courtyard, so he continued, "This thing is called corn, and it is a kind of grain. I just tried to plant some on Tsukishima this time, and I was lucky enough to succeed. This corn ......"

"Sixth Miss, you don't have to worry about not going," Yang Xu interrupted the words of the woman opposite, "It's just some foreign food, even if we knew about it at the time, we would give it to you sincerely." ”

"Young Island Master, you don't understand." Wang Ji looked at Yang Xu lightly, then at the two brothers next to him, and said softly, "This is not only a kind of grain, but also a high-yield, storable grain." She turned around and pointed to the corn cobs at her feet, "The yield of this corn per mu can reach up to about 2,000 catties, and even if it is planted in an ordinary large area, it can generally reach a yield of about 1,500 catties per mu." And this corn can be grown not only in fertile fields, but also in mountainous areas. ”

What the! 1500 catties per mu? Don't pick the planting environment?

The three men in the courtyard were not ordinary people, so they naturally understood what this meant. Nowadays, in the best fertile fields in the south of the Yangtze River, the yield of rice is only about 500 catties per mu. If this corn can really yield 1,500 catties per mu, then its importance is self-evident.

"So, the young island owner ,......"

"Miss Six doesn't need to say it anymore, among so many people on the island at that time, only Miss Six knew about this thing, and that was because it was related to Miss Six. If it weren't for the sixth lady who recognized this corn, my father would have only ordered someone to throw this corn into the sea, which would really make Mingzhu dust, if that, wouldn't my father and son of the Yang family become sinners. ”

Yang Xu looked at the woman in front of him who wanted to say something, so he continued to speak, "Miss Six, if you don't mind, Yang wants to ask for some corn seeds, okay?" ”

Begging for corn seeds? There is no one to farm on the desert island, what is he doing with all this corn?

"Of course you can," since she couldn't figure it out, Wang Ji lightly put it down, "But I have to wait until next autumn, and I will keep these on the ground as seeds." Please also ask the owner of the island to ......"

"Okay, it's a word, I'll come back to the island next year to get the seeds." Yang Xu readily agreed.

Next year will be better, and I have one more reason to see her.
