tacitly did not continue the topic just now, and the two of them continued to walk towards the outside of the city.

Large tracts of farmland are usually planted outside the city, and the two of them had just walked out of the city when they saw a large area of fields.

"The growth of this crop is indeed a little sad......" Looking at the sparse seedlings in the field, Su Mian's expression was quite emotional.

If it continues to grow like this, the output will naturally not go up.

"Big brother, who gave you this kind of land method?" Looking at a dark-skinned man not far away, who was burying his head in the ground, Su Mian asked loudly.

The man was stunned for a moment, then threw down the hoe in his hand and said: "What can you teach or not, my ancestors have been farming like this for generations, and I will naturally do too." ”

After that, he saw that Su Mian and Gu Zhao were not dressed like ordinary children from ordinary civilian families, so he smiled and said, "The girl and the little boy are out of the city to play, right?" That's the opposite, from here out are all fields, all the way east, out of the city is the woods waterfall, but, you have to go early, after dark there is always some danger. ”

The man looked honest, and his tone of voice was very sincere, Su Jin glanced at Gu Zhao quietly, and nodded lightly.

I'm doing experiments right here!

Smiling, Su Miancai said tentatively: "I just want to see how the land is farmed here, I haven't seen it, I'm a little curious, and now I feel a little thirsty, I wonder if the eldest brother can let our sister and brother ask for a bowl of water to drink?" ”

"Naturally, it's no problem." The man was really a good talker, and when he heard this, he immediately agreed, walked up from the steps on the side of the field, and while talking, he took Gu Zhao and Su Mian towards a wooden house not far away.

As soon as he walked to the door of the house, Su Mian heard a coughing sound coming from the house.

"It's my mother, I'm old and I have some old diseases, if you don't want to go in, you can wait here." Afraid that they would mind, the man took the initiative to explain.

Su Mian smiled, and was just about to speak, when he heard Gu Zhao on the side suddenly speak, "No." ”

Then, without saying a word, he pushed open the door and walked into the yard.

The old man in the house was opening the door and walking out, and when he saw that there were suddenly two strangers in his yard, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then he saw the man behind them, and his expression relaxed.

"Mother, this girl and the little boy are out of the city to play, and they want to beg for a bowl of water to drink." The man explained to the old man.

The old man's family also looked kind, and when he heard this, he smiled and nodded, turned around and went into the house, and brought out two bowls of water.

"We're a little shabby here, so don't dislike the girl and the boy." Smiled a little embarrassedly, the old man pushed the bowl in front of the two of them and coughed twice.

"The old man's illness is not going to the city to find a doctor to see?" Seeing that the old man's face was a little pale, Su Mian couldn't help but ask with some concern.

But who knew that the old man shook his head, and the man on the side also looked embarrassed: "Don't be afraid of the girl's jokes, you see that we live in this place, where can we afford to look at the doctor?" Every day, I take some vegetables into the city to sell them, and I am content to make ends meet. ”

Su Mian's expression paused slightly, and he quietly turned the topic to the place he cared about, "I passed by just now and saw that the growth of the crops in the field doesn't seem to be good, is this the case with all the fields around here?" ”

Hearing her ask, the man sighed heavily, and then replied, "Who said it wasn't?" I don't know why, the crops in this field are not growing as well as they should be, and it is all up to luck, which is really sad. ”

Thinking of the scene he saw just now, Su Mian suddenly felt a sense of relief.

People here don't know how to plant the land, they just know how to bury the seeds and then fertilize them, and as for what it looks like, whether the soil is suitable for growth, whether the weather is cloudy, it can only be left to luck.

But this fertilizer is not used casually, if you use it wrong or the dosage is not well controlled, you will naturally not grow anything good.

After glancing at Gu Zhao, Su Mian opened the small package he was carrying.

When she went out today, she put the nutrient solution in two small porcelain bottles, which were slightly larger, and carried them out in small packages.

"Big brother, I have some things here, I wonder if you would like to try to sprinkle some in the field?" Su Mian asked tentatively.

"What is this?" The man stared at what was in Su Mian's hand with some doubts.

Rolling his eyes, Su Mian sighed leisurely and explained: "It's not a secret, my younger brother likes to study these things since he was a child, and when he heard that the crops in the field were not rising well, he figured out these potions by himself, saying that they could help the crops grow better, and my father said that he was not doing his job properly after knowing it, so he had to come to my sister to try it out of the city, if it failed this time, he could study at home with peace of mind." ”

Su Mian said the story he made up casually without changing his face, and glanced at Gu Zhao next to him quietly.

Sure enough, Gu Zhao's expression tightened violently from the moment she said "my brother", but she had no choice but to sit silently and listen to her nonsense.

The man was a little curious as to why the two of them appeared here, so he nodded clearly when he heard this, and said with a righteous face: "How can such a career be regarded as not doing business?" If this potion is really useful, it is a good thing for the whole Western Saint! When the time comes, the emperor will be happy, maybe he can give Brother Ling a half-official position, wouldn't it be a good thing? ”

A half-job? Gu Zhao's position has already reached the top, and I am afraid there is no way to go any further.

was almost amused by this eldest brother, Su Mianqiang held back the smile on his lips, and then said seriously: "Yes, if it is really possible, it is really a good thing." ”

And Gu Zhao on the other side ......

He didn't want to say anything, and he didn't bother to say it.

The words have come to this, for the purpose of today's trip, no matter what Su Mian says, he can only endure it.

After listening to Su Mian's words, the man's eyes when he looked at Gu Zhao had already become very expectant, as if he had seen the future pillars of the country.

"Then I don't know how much girl is going to put in this potion? How long does it take to see results? The man thought for a while, and then looked faintly worried.

If this potion has no effect at all, but instead makes all those things in the field unavailable, wouldn't it be worth the loss?

Knowing what he was worried about, Su Mian smiled, and then replied: "Big brother doesn't have to worry, he only needs to occupy a small piece of land, if it fails, it will not affect other things in geography, as for time...... I'm afraid it will take ten days and a half to see the effect, and we will naturally find a way to let people check it at that time, but there is one thing that we still have to explain to my eldest brother. ”

"Girl, please speak." Although he still had some doubts in his heart, the man saw that both of them were very kind-hearted, and he was indeed worried about the rise of the crops in the field, so he agreed to give it a try without hesitation.

After a slight pause, Su Mian said: "Before seeing the results, please don't make a public announcement about this matter, and we will naturally give you the corresponding remuneration." ”

"Naturally, I'm not a person who talks nonsense, but I don't have to be paid, if this potion is useful, I can grow good things in the future, and I can naturally sell it for more money." The man smiled and refused.

Gu Zhao listened quietly for a long time, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but quietly take out a few pieces of broken silver from his purse and press them to the bottom of the bowl he used to drink water just now.

This silver is enough for this old man to go to the city to find a good doctor to see a doctor, and then spend the first half of the year without worrying about food and clothing.

After discussing the matter, Su Mian and Gu Zhao got up and left the courtyard with the man and walked towards the field outside.

Picking a small area in the corner, Su Mian squatted down and looked at it carefully.

Then he took a shovel directly from the side, intending to loosen the soil properly.

It's so tightly pressed here that it's hard for the air to enter, and these seeds barely break through the ground and germinate, so it's no wonder they can grow well!

It was the first time I saw a girl swinging a shovel and starting to hoe the ground, and the man's expression was a little surprised for a while, and then a little appreciative.

After loosening the soil for this small piece of land and putting some seeds into it again, Su Mian carefully irrigated all the nutrient solution in his hand on the land.

"That's okay?" The man looked at her with some surprise and asked, looking a little uncertain.

"Yes." Su Mian nodded, and said with a smile: "I'll tell you how often you should put the rest of these things, as well as the time and amount of watering every day, you must remember carefully." ”

Doing an experiment is naturally not as simple as putting down the nutrient solution and waiting, seeing that the man nodded and agreed, Su Mian carefully advised.

In the end, Su Mian only said it once, and the man nodded and wrote down all his words.

"Okay, then our sister and brother will leave first, and then send someone to check the growth of these crops later, and worry more about the eldest brother during this time." Before leaving, Su Mian said with a smile.

The man smiled and sent the two of them away, and looked at the small field that had been adjusted by Su Mian just now.

For some reason, he had a vague hunch that the crops in this field would rise very well.

……

After getting the place of the experiment, Su Mian felt a lot more relaxed.

Quietly glancing at Gu Zhao walking beside him, Su Mian suddenly thought of what he had just seen.

That is, Gu Zhao quietly put the silver at the bottom of the bowl.

It was precisely because of seeing this that Su Mian did not insist on giving the eldest brother just now some remuneration, and he also appreciated Gu Zhao's behavior very much.

Tut-tut...... I can't imagine that this problem is actually quite soft-hearted......

will actually do good deeds without leaving a name.

It's really teachable.
