Chapter 317: Guangyang City Chapter 45

"......" Xie Tiancheng twitched, what is this feeling of déjà vu?

When the few people returned to the house, they wordlessly sprinkled several pieces of paper on the pamphlet, and after putting away the pen, handed the paper to the elegy.

Elegy and Xie Tiancheng glanced at each other, and then began to read the content.

After a while, Elegy raised his head and concluded: "In other words, the harvest here is not good, is it because of the soil?" ”

Nodding wordlessly, he wrote and drew on the pamphlet, "The soil is too barren, and it is impossible to have a good harvest if you grow ordinary things." ”

"So what to do?" Xie Tiancheng frowned, a little distressed, he had tried all the crops he could grow, wheat, sorghum, rice, these staple foods had been tried, but none of them could succeed, what else could he grow that could not only fill his stomach, but also harvest?

Wordlessly, he shook his head, indicating that he had no choice.

Xie Tiancheng couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw that people who were particularly familiar with this aspect were helpless, and he smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that the matter of transferring is imperative......

He lowered his head and clenched his hands into fists, looking very unwilling, yes, he had already made so many efforts, but he only got such a result, no matter who he was, he would be unwilling, and he was a little moved.

"Speechless, think about it again, see if you can come up with a way?" Elegy commanded to the wordless.

Wordless glanced at the elegy, scratched his head in embarrassment, and finally nodded and wrote on paper: "I will try." ”

Because this matter was inconclusive, Xie Tiancheng's mood was a little low, and he went back to the house early to rest.

"Princess. Do you still want to go out? Seeing the elegy walking in the direction of the gate, Si Du couldn't help but be stunned.

"Huh? Well...... Sure enough, I'm still a little concerned, so let's go ask the local people again. "Elegy is unwilling to die, not for the sake of thanking Tiancheng for doing this, but for the sake of the people of Guangyang City.

Even if there is a new official, as long as the soil problem is not improved, the local people will still have to go hungry, and since she is the princess of this country, she will naturally be responsible for the people of this country.

"But didn't the princess just go out? Going out again? Twilight was a little worried about Elegy's body.

How could the elegy not know what the elegy was thinking in his heart? She waved her arm and smiled at Si Dui, "Don't worry. I don't know how my body is? Just going out. Don't make a fuss! ”

It's because you think so that I'm worried....... Si Du sighed lightly, thinking that Elegy is always strong, even if it is uncomfortable. It's also stuffy in my heart. remembered that he was kicked by that Xiao Jin before. Although the elegy said that there was no big problem, but later she looked at the kick on Si Chen's body, and she also knew how much force the other party used.

"Princess...... You can't be strong. "It's wordy, though. But Si Du still took the trouble to advise.

Elegy smiled and waved his hand, "I know, I know, Si Du is this long-winded, and his ears are almost calloused." ”

Then you have to be obedient! Si Du looked at her helplessly, and complained inwardly.

The three of them went out again, and the first thing they did was to ask the peasants who were still working in the fields, although only a few of them, but they were better than nothing, and Elegy talked a lot with those people, most of them about planting.

Time passed little by little, and the sun slowly slipped from the middle to the west, and just when it was halfway up the mountain, Si Du saw that it was getting late, so he stepped forward and whispered a few words in the ear of the elegy, "Princess, it's time to go back." ”

Elegy was chatting happily with the peasants, and after listening to Si Dui's words, he paused slightly, and then whispered, "Wait a little longer." ”

"Uncle, is there any difference between this rice?" Elegy looked at the half-ripened rice that the old farmer had just pulled out of the field, and asked humbly.

"Hey, little girl, at first glance, it's the eldest lady of a rich family, right?" The old farmer laughed innocently.

Elegy was stunned for a moment, laughed a little embarrassedly, nodded, and responded vaguely, "Sort of." ”

"Hehe, it's really strange that a lady like you would be interested in this kind of thing."

Being said that, the elegy is a little embarrassing.

The old farmer laughed again, and he pointed out the rice to the elegy, "Little girl, look again, what is the difference between these two rice plants?" ”

"Huh?" Elegy looked at it, and finally said uncertainly: "That...... The grains of one of the plants are relatively full, but ......" Elegy looked at it seriously, but this rice plant is broken, and it shouldn't be able to live, right?

"But what?" The old peasant's eyes lit up and he continued to ask.

Elegy said what came to mind in his heart, and when the old farmer heard it, he nodded appreciatively, "The little girl has good eyesight, that's right, that's it, what about this rice?" ”

As she spoke, the old farmer took out another rice plant and handed it to Elegy, who hurriedly caught it, and she looked at it carefully for a while, and immediately found the difference, compared with the previous rice, this one was obviously much shorter, and the ears on it were much less than the previous one, but the stem of this one was not broken.

"This rice plant seems to be more resistant to pressure than that rice plant, right......?" Elegy asked uncertainly.

When the old farmer heard this, he nodded, "Yes, this rice plant is big and full when it is harvested, but there are too few survivors, as long as the wind is a little stronger, it can crush a good piece, but if you change this rice, you don't have to worry about this at all......

"So, as long as you plant this kind of rice, ......?" Elegy looked at another dwarf rice plant in surprise.

The old farmer shook his head again, he looked at the rice plant with pity, and said regretfully: "No, although this kind of rice can resist pressure, it bears too few ears, and the harvest still can't go up after a year." ”

"Really......?" When I heard the elegy, I was a little disappointed, and sure enough, there is no such thing as the best of both worlds.

When the old peasant saw that the elegy was disappointed, he laughed again, "Isn't the little girl disappointed?" ”

Nonsense, you explained so much at the beginning, and it turned out to be useless, of course she would be disappointed, wouldn't she?

However, Elegy did not pin her hopes on a peasant, after all, this is a problem that has not been solved even after five years of Xie Tiancheng's busy work, and she will not force an old peasant to solve it.

When she stood up and was about to go back, the old farmer hurriedly stopped her, "Eh, little girl, why are you going back?" ”

Only then did Elegy realize that she hadn't said goodbye to the other party yet, and was a little embarrassed, and said, "Ah, I'm sorry, I forgot to say goodbye to my uncle." ”

"Little girl, are you disappointed?" The old peasant also asked very sincerely, the elegy was a little speechless, isn't this nonsense?

"Hehe, among them, I have something more powerful than I need to tell you, old man." The old farmer smiled.

Elegy's eyes flashed slightly, and when he saw the old farmer so mysterious, he was a little curious, "Uncle, what else is powerful?" ”

"Wait a minute, I'll look in the fields, maybe I'll find it." So saying, the old peasant took off his shoes again and jumped into the field.

Elegy didn't have time to stop the other party, the other party had already jumped in, only to see the old farmer looking in the field, looking for a long time, Elegy looked a little strange, and said to Si Du beside him: "What is he looking for?" ”

"Are you fishing?" Si Chen said coldly.

Elegy and Si Du turned their heads to look at him at the same time, Si Chen didn't know it, and continued: "I just saw that there seem to be fish swimming in that field, maybe the old man wants to catch a few fish for you to go back." ”

Elegy suddenly realized that Si Chen didn't seem to have spoken just now, she glanced at the other party's somewhat wet cuffs, the corners of her eyes twitched, and asked seriously: "I said, Si Chen, it wasn't just to steal someone else's fish, right?" ”

Si Chen suddenly frowned, "It's too much, princess, am I that kind of person?" That's what I did! ”

You used to steal food in the palace! Elegy glanced at Si Chen, but still buried the words in his heart.

After a while, the old farmer really caught a few fish and put them all in the basket, and the elegy's face froze, did he really touch the fish for her? However, in addition to the fish, the old farmer also had a rice plant in his hand, and he came up, handed the basket to Elegy, and said, "Little girl, I caught a few fish for you just now, and if you don't dislike it, take it back and boil the fish soup and drink it." ”

"Huh? How does this work? Elegy hurriedly excused himself, "Let's keep these fish for my own use." ”

"No, no, there's more in there!" The old farmer smiled, and insisted on stuffing the basket into the elegy, "I see that the little girl's face is a little bad, take these fish back to boil fish soup and drink, maybe the complexion will be better." ”

Does she have a bad complexion? The elegy stiffened, a little overwhelmed.

In the end, under the tough attitude of the old farmer, he still accepted the basket, "Uncle, thank you." ”

"You're welcome, you're welcome, no one has heard the old man talk about these things for a long time, and I'm glad that the little girl can talk with me for so long today." The old farmer waved his hand, as if he remembered something, and said, "Eh, I almost forgot everything." ”

As he spoke, the old farmer handed the rice in his hand to Elegy, "Little girl, look, what is the difference between this rice plant and the others?" ”

"Huh?" Elegy looked down at the rice plant and said, "This plant also has a lot of grains......

The old farmer nodded and said, "What else?" ”

"Forehead......" Elegy looked at it carefully, and immediately saw the clue, and said, "Huh? The stem of this plant has not been broken! "Is it an accident, or is the old farmer specifically looking for a plant that has not been broken?

"Hehe, the secret is inside." The old farmer smiled mysteriously, "This plant, combined with the advantages of the previous two rice plants, can't help but be full of grains, and it is also strong resistance to pressure." ”

"Really?" Only then did Elegy realize that she was full of surprises, "So, as long as there is this kind of rice, the harvest problem can be solved?" ”

When the old farmer heard this, he shook his head again, "Now is not the time. (To be continued......)
