Chapter 114: Something That Can Save Lives

"Grilled fish with lemongrass, shrimp with lemon, grilled scallops with grilled oysters, seafood porridge with flower crab." Wei Jue took a look at it and concluded that this table of dishes was made by his sister.

At this moment, Su Wurong came out with a celadon wine bottle in his hand and beckoned everyone to sit down.

"I brought it back from there when I went to Fuso two years ago. It's a little different from the sake I'm used for, but it's just right to have a drink when I eat seafood. ”

The wine was warmed in advance, and a sip of spicy food entered the throat, followed by a surge of warmth in the stomach.

"It's not bad. But it's a little worse than the wine I make. Wei Jin patted his face and commented unceremoniously.

"Although I make rice wine, rice wine is hot, and it goes well with seafood."

"Oh, when will you have to try it?"

"Come to Ganzhou. The scenery of our side is different from that of Zhangzhou. You've seen too much of the sea, why don't you come and see the mountains? ”

Su Wurong didn't agree, nor did he refuse.

She drank a lot that day, and her interest was a little high, and after taking the three members of the Wei family to watch the play, she was sent back to rest by the maidservant.

"I'm sorry, Miss, she might be a little drunk."

"It's okay, just arrange a car to take us back. I'm also a little dizzy. ”

Wei Jin patted her crimson face. I'm not drunk, it's just a little hot, I ate so well today, I have to get some light food at night.

The two younger sisters didn't drink much, and drank a kind of juice specially obtained by the Su family. Wei Jin tasted it and felt that it was too sweet and greasy, but it happened that Wei Jue and Miss He San had a good bite, and the two of them didn't eat much food, so they all drank this juice.

The Su family hurriedly prepared a car to send them home, and met the carriage of the little grandfather on the way and came back from the temple outside the city.

This is the first time Wei Jue has seen the little grandfather, and he is embarrassed to pull the curtain to look at it, so he is with He San, and secretly lifts a corner to look out.

At this time, Wei Jin remembered that he didn't seem to tell his sister that the little grandfather was Xiaoya.

But it wasn't appropriate at this time, so she thought about going back and telling her sister not to talk about it in private. After all, the incident of the little grandfather's death was not publicized, and everyone only thought that the stepwife of Zhennan had imprisoned the little grandfather.

I met by chance on the road, and the little grandfather's frame didn't stop for too long, but I just asked who was in the car, and after knowing that it was Wei Jin's sisters, the little grandfather left without showing his face.

Back at his home, Wei Jue took advantage of He San's sleep and ran to find Wei Jin.

"Sister, let's go to the Su family today, I heard them say that there was a sea festival in Dongxiang for a while, I want to go and see it."

The sea festival is a celebration of the fishermen to worship the sea goddess Mazu Niangniang, and the scene is very lively. Even if Wei Jue doesn't say it, she plans to take her two younger sisters to see and see.

After sending his sister to rest, Wei Jin summoned the servants who accompanied him and asked where all the things he bought today were placed.

After learning about the small warehouse in the side yard, Wei Jin changed his clothes and ran to count the loot with great interest.

This time there was a lot of gain. In addition to the previous peppers, raw corn and potatoes were also found.

I don't know if it's the rules of this world that the gods are releasing water, anyway, things that shouldn't have appeared at this time are all in front of her at this time. It's all like this, don't you want to give face to the god of rules? Wei Jin directly wrapped up all the similar things he could see, and planned to find a place to try to plant them here.

The climate of Zhangzhou is not much different from the four seasons, and the air humidity is also high, which is more suitable for the growth of crops than Ganzhou.

The land in Ganzhou is drying up day by day, and the traditional wheat and rice cultivation yields are not as good as they are every year.

With potatoes and corn, most of this problem is solved, and the rest is just to find experienced old farmers to breed the best.

Wei Jin had planted corn and potatoes with the old farmer, and even got a bucket to plant on the balcony of her house, so she had some experience in how to grow these two crops.

Corn is good to say, bury it in the soil and wait for it to germinate, but potatoes have to be allowed to germinate before they can be divided and planted.

I don't know if it's because it's been dry for too long, but after two or three days, the potatoes still haven't changed at all. Wei Jin thought about it, asked people to find some straw, sprayed water on it, and put the potatoes between two layers of moist straw, and put them in a place where the temperature was relatively high and they could get the sun for half a day.

It is warm and humid, and when the temperature reaches a certain temperature, the potatoes begin to sprout.

Originally, it was supposed to be cut and planted, but because the potatoes were too small, she simply planted the whole potato seed directly.

In order to facilitate observation, Wei Jin did not plant potatoes in the ground, but asked people to find large pots to plant. In this way, if you have to leave early, you can take the plants with you.

At night, a Qingpeng carriage drove in from outside the city unnoticed and went directly to the back door of Wei's house.

Wei Zhan, who got the report, didn't know why, so he followed the housekeeper to the backyard to take a look.

Moved down a lot of things from the carriage that he had never seen before, and when he asked, he realized that it was because Wei Jin was purchasing on a large scale today, and the Su family simply collected these things and packed them all and sent them over as an apology.

"Apologies? What do you mean? Wei Zan frowned.

Could it be that Wei Jin and the others went to the Su family today and were wronged? But it shouldn't be, Wei Jin is not a person who swallows his anger, he usually finds an opportunity to send it on the spot when he is angry, and he can't wait to go home at all. Besides, she has been busy since she came back in the afternoon, and no one at home knows what she is doing, only that the third lady asked people to take more than a dozen large flower pots and plant some crops that have never been seen before.

He was still struggling here, and Wei Jin, who had heard the news, had already happily pounced over and opened the bag to check.

Of course, before opening the bag, she didn't forget to ask Lan Xiang to give a reward to the person who sent the things.

Or those people got the master's order, and did not refuse, and after accepting it, they specially said that if Miss Wei San still wanted it, they could continue to go to the market to collect these sundries.

There are a lot of these things, but how many of them can sprout, Wei Jin can't be sure, naturally the more the merrier. So he asked people to write down the coachman and the servant who delivered the things, and said that they would send them directly to the steward to report the bill.

The steward glanced at Wei Zan and saw that he had no objection, so he agreed.

"Tell me what the hell are these?"

"I can only tell you that this is something that can save lives in a famine year, but I can't say for sure whether it can grow or not, and even if it can grow, it will have to be bred to be able to plant in large quantities."

"You mean, these things can be used as food?"

"It's not pretend, these are grains, but they are different from the grains in our Central Plains. These things are not inconspicuous, the yield is higher than rice, and they are not picky about the land, even in the mountains. ”

After hearing this, Wei Zan gasped, pulled Wei Jin's arm and lowered his voice, and asked her who else knew about this?
