Since the training task was handed over to Zhang Feng, Qiao Tieshan had nothing to do. It just so happened that Zhang Ke thought of a greenhouse and planted some vegetables, which could satisfy the appetite of his family and make some money.

Zhang Ke simply bought all the empty houses in the east of the city and transformed them into conservatories, and Qiao Tieshan found a few old farmers to take care of them together. In order to ensure the temperature in the house, according to Zhang Ke's instructions, use a stove to heat up.

When the first seedlings came out of the soil, several people even cried with joy. Vegetables in the north are very scarce in winter, except for radish and cabbage, there is basically nothing! With a conservatory, you can feast on it.

Qiao Tieshan never expected that Zhang Ke would pull out all the seedlings. Qiao Tieshan's face suddenly sank and glared at Zhang Ke.

"Yongzhen, although you let you build the conservatory, but a few of us have been taking care of it without sleep, and there is no merit and hard work, so you just pulled it out, and the uncle can't explain it too much!"

"Not too much, of course!"

Zhang Ke saw that >everyone's face was not good, as if he had done a great sin, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Tieshan, it is my fault that your hard work has been wasted, but I thought of the more important use of the greenhouse, which is much more important than growing vegetables!" ”

Deng Wentong's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Second brother, do you say that the greenhouse has anything to do with growing food?" ”

"That's right!"

Zhang Ke nodded and smiled: "Liaodong has always grown chestnuts and wheat, which is also the staple food of most people. But now that the weather is getting colder every year, and the yield of chestnut wheat is declining, we have to find the grain with higher yields and shorter growth cycles. ”

Qiao Tieshan is the only one in a group of people who has farmed, and he can basically understand what Zhang Ke said, but he has no clue what his thousands of years of farming habits can be replaced.

"Yongzhen, don't sell any good ideas, hurry up!"

"Good. I think there are two ways to go, and in recent years the Westerners have brought in many new crops, among which sweet potatoes (sweet potatoes) and corn have been grown in the south. Xu Guangqi Xu also wrote to the imperial court to promote sweet potatoes, these two crops have considerable yields, and are drought tolerant, and do not have too much fertility. Take sweet potatoes as an example, there is still hope for three or five hundred catties per acre of real estate! ”

"How much?"

Qiao Tieshan was so shocked that his eyes were about to fall, you must know that the fattest field, one acre of land is only two stones of millet. This sweet potato does not occupy a good field, but it can also produce so much. It's a fetish!

Qiao Tieshan's breathing was also short: "Plant, you must plant big!" ”

"Uncle Tieshan, don't worry. Although the yield of sweet potato is high, it is not as good as serious food, and if you eat too much, you will have heartburn and acid reflux, which can only be used as supplementary food. The same is true for corn, I introduced it mainly for feed, there are a lot of pastures around Daqing Fort, and we should breed more war horses, cattle and sheep. ”

The big guy was happy for a long time. When I heard that sweet potatoes and corn were just supplements, I was a little discouraged!

"Yongzhen, what are you going to plant?" Shen Yue asked curiously.

Zhang Ke smiled slightly: "Rice! ”

Goo!

The big guys are struggling to swallow and foam, how does this seem like a joke? South rice and north wheat. This is a tradition of thousands of years, Liaodong has never planted rice, just with Zhang Ke's words, how can it be whimsical!

"Young-jeong. Can it be done, don't you scholars often say that oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in Huaibei are oranges. Rice cultivation in Liaodong. Can it be done? ”。

It can be done, of course it can be done!

Zhang Ke has no doubt that the Northeast in later generations can not only grow rice, but also produce rice rich in protein, fragrant and delicious, and you can drool when you think about it.

Daqing Fort guards the Daling River and the Fine River, and there is no shortage of water, which is suitable for growing rice!

"Uncle Tieshan, Liaodong can definitely grow rice, but the south grows two seasons, and we plant one season. However, our land is fertile, and a crop of rice will not be much worse than theirs. ”

Qiao Tieshan knew that Zhang Ke would not be able to open his mouth, maybe Liaodong could really grow rice, but he was still a little confused.

"Yongzhen, you haven't told me why you pulled out these seedlings, what does it have to do with you planting rice?"

"Hahaha, Uncle Tieshan, the weather has become colder and colder over the years, and the time for grain to grow has become shorter and shorter, but the millet is not ripe, am I right?"

"Well, that's true, God has done evil, what can we do?"

"Of course we have a way, and the warm house is the key to our time with God!" Zhang Ke said, waving his fist excitedly!

In his previous life, Zhang Ke's orphanage was not far from the farmland, so Zhang Ke was no stranger to farming.

The biggest danger during the Xiaoice period is that the temperature becomes lower, resulting in a shorter time suitable for crop growth, so that the yield of Yan zhòng is reduced. Therefore, the selection of crops requires a short growth time and a high yield.

In fact, compared with traditional wheat, rice has a longer growth cycle, but rice has a huge advantage, that is, it can raise seedlings in advance. When it was still cold outside, the farmers had already buckled the greenhouses, sprinkled seeds, and began to raise seedlings. When the temperature is about the same, the grown rice seedlings are transplanted into the paddy field, which is called transplanting.

Relying on this method of farming, rice matures earlier than corn and is harvested earlier!

Seedling raising is a craft that Chinese ancestors learned very early, but it has been used to raise seedlings with water for thousands of years. During the whole seedling raising period, the seedlings were flooded, the soil aeration condition was poor, the rooting and seedling erection were slow after sowing, and the phenomenon of floating buds and seedlings falling was common. When the climate is bad, it is very easy to produce suffocated seeds and rotten seedlings, which not only causes economic losses, but also delays agricultural time.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the way of raising seedlings by water has been replaced by dry seedlings, that is, seedlings are raised in greenhouses, which can be planted and transplanted in advance, and the rice matures 5 to 7 days in advance, increasing the yield by more than 8%.

In the Xiaoice period of all evils, time is life!

Thinking of this, Zhang Ke suddenly felt that he was just using the greenhouse to grow out-of-season vegetables to satisfy his appetite, which was simply a crime, just to ignore people's lives, and to joke with the people under his rule!

If you use the greenhouse to raise seedlings in advance, it is possible to snatch back precious time from God, the yield of rice is already high, as long as it matures normally, you will no longer have to worry about starvation, maybe you will find a killer weapon to fight against the Xiaoice River period!

Food is Zhang Ke's biggest heart disease, seeing that he has found a solution, how can Zhang Ke not be ecstatic!

He told Qiao Tieshan about his thoughts as they were, and Qiao Tieshan listened carefully. At first, I thought Zhang Ke was whimsical, but didn't he also grow vegetables in the greenhouse, maybe this method really worked.

"Yongzhen, I think it's worth a try!"

With Qiao Tieshan's support, Zhang Ke's motivation also came up.

"Uncle Tieshan, you immediately find twenty old farmers to help raise seedlings, all the greenhouses are vacated, and it is not enough for me to collect houses. You remember, this is the biggest secret of the Great Qing Fort, and who leaked it. Don't blame me for not recognizing my six relatives! ”

Food is a matter of life and death, and several people have all kept it firmly in their hearts.

Turning his head, he got busy, Qiao Tieshan found an old farmer and immediately tidied up the nursery. Zhang Ke asked people to carry more than a dozen bags of unhulled rice to his home.

As soon as Zhang Ke was in the yard, he heard someone shouting at him excitedly.

"Uncle, uncle!" Yaoyao's little girl fell into Zhang Ke's arms like a butterfly.

The little girl is still so thin, but she has changed into colorful clothes, and she is wearing pink embroidered soft satin boots, with a handsome appearance. The little girl is made of jade, not to mention how cute!

Zhang Ke hugged the little girl, kissed her twice, and had a delicate little face with stubble.

made Yaoyao giggle. "Uncle, Yaoyao misses you, why haven't you come to see Yaoyao these days?"

"Kids, don't talk nonsense!"

Zhang Yunmei got up and took over her daughter. He said reproachfully: "Uncle has something to do, don't make trouble, children!" ”

Shen, who was sitting on the main seat, snorted: "Serious business, serious business." They're busy every day! Feng'er followed you to Yizhou, and as a result, he went directly to Quang Ninh. When Ke'er came home, she didn't look at me, who was a mother, but she looked at Xiaoxue anyway, and there were still other girls. ”

"Miss Fang, which Miss Fang?" Zhang Ke looked stunned, looked to the side suddenly, and suddenly a tall and handsome woman stood up slowly.

Fang Yunqing!

Zhang Ke finally remembered that she was exactly what Jin Wanguan wanted to give to He Bian, and she was brought back to Daqing Fort by herself. has been busy these days, and Zhang Ke has almost forgotten about her.

Looking at his son's stunned appearance, Shen suddenly became a little angry.

"Ke'er, Miss Fang has traveled thousands of miles, coming back with you, why don't you even look at others, I really don't let my mother worry!"

Looking at the old lady's expression, Zhang Ke knew that she must have misunderstood, but he couldn't say anything in public, so he immediately stalemate.

Fortunately, Fang Yunqing slowly stood up, and said to the Shen family: "Old lady, the slave maid is a servant of people, Master Zhang can reward the slave family with a mouthful of food, let the slave family live, and the slave family will be grateful!" The slave maid took her leave first! ”

Fang Yunqing turned around and left, her figure extremely lonely.

Zhang Ke's heart was also a little unhappy, after all, he brought people back, but he didn't have any explanation, just hanging it like this, it was very inappropriate!

"Miss Fang, you wait!"

Fang Yunqing slowly turned her head and asked slightly, "What do you have to say, Lord Zhang!" ”

Zhang Ke couldn't think of anything for a while, and suddenly said, "Miss Fang, it's a bit of a trouble for the big guy." I brought a few bags of rice back, you help me choose, I'm afraid that the man will not do it well if he is careless! ”

Fang Yunqing was suddenly stunned, and a strange smile flashed on her face. "The slave obeys!"

Shen stood up and said with a smile: "Ke'er, if you have any work, my mother will also follow, and it will be uncomfortable if my body bones don't move for a day." ”

Xiaoxue, Hui'er, Zhang Yunmei, and even Yaoyao followed to the open space in the back house. The golden rice was piled up into a hill, and Shen frowned in surprise.

"Ke'er, what are you tossing about?"

"Hahaha, mother, you'll know in a few days!"

The Shen family was confused, but they all did what Zhang Ke said, carefully selecting the full rice grains. Relying on his memory, Zhang Ke soaked the picked rice grains in water to let the seeds swell and sprout. Then send it to the greenhouse, neatly place it in the nursery, water it on time every day, and keep adding the stove, and the greenhouse is full of spring.

These seeds carried all the hopes of Zhang Ke, and he almost stayed in the warm house.

On the third day, the first rays of sunlight shone in the morning, Zhang Ke opened his hazy sleepy eyes, and suddenly a delicate green appeared in front of his eyes, and two tears poured out from the corners of Zhang Ke's eyes in an instant! (To be continued......)
