Chapter 159: The Villagers of Siliu Village (10)

As a local, from childhood to adulthood, I have heard all kinds of gossip from well-known big families in the county, except for birth, old age, sickness and death, there are few good things, in the past, they have not suffered a few villagers, robbing people of cultivated land, collecting high rents, burning people's fishing boats, cutting off people's livelihoods, and doing bad things.

At the same time, Qi Ke had also eaten in the Spirit Realm, changed his clothes and prepared to work.

First of all, wash the mud on the roots of the pig, and put a wooden tray with a wet gauze on it like bean sprouts, and try to see if it can promote germination.

Then, Qi Ke changed into a full set of overalls, put on masks, gloves and goggles, and carried a shovel basket to pick flowers outside the villa.

The water network behind the village is dense, the small rivers and streams are connected into waterways extending in all directions, the former owner of the salt merchant also dredged the river in order to take the salt boat, and expanded a relatively large river, the villagers are very convenient to farm and get water, Qi Ke noticed that Yuan Ting is wearing ordinary straw shoes on their feet, but in fact, the best shoes to deal with this environment are rubber rain boots, which are long, which can cover the entire calf, and are very reliable to go down to the field to catch the sea to isolate parasites.

Qi Ke herself has a lot of long rain boots, she has to wear this every day for farm work, it is convenient and easy to clean, and the muddy water and feces are washed with water and cleaned, and she will settle in this village in the future, she must still wear rain boots to work in the fields, she can't change her habits, so she has to let the locals get used to and accept rubber products.

She didn't know if there were any rubber plants in this world that could extract latex, but fortunately, there was an invasive alien species in her spiritual realm.

Silver gum chrysanthemum.

The history of invasion of silver gum chrysanthemum is almost 100 years, growing in hot places, riverside ditches, farmland and pastures can grow, plants are poisonous, can cause human allergies and livestock death, but this toxicity has medicinal value, latex content is very high, and does not contain ingredients that will make people allergic, very suitable for medical and health and daily necessities.

Of course, Qi Ke will not take the initiative to collect silver gum chrysanthemum, she suspects that this plant is when she went south to buy seedlings when the sole of her shoes stepped on the seeds and was brought into the spiritual realm, this plant is extremely diffuse, there are seeds and seedlings everywhere to grab land all year round, such a good environment in Qianhe is out of control for a long time, and the effective means of removal is to uproot before flowering and then burn.

This plant that was inadvertently brought into the spiritual realm caused a lot of trouble at first, every time it seemed to be cleaned up, who knew that the plants would emerge again in a few days, and then Qi Ke was also tired, as long as the silver gum chrysanthemum was controlled and did not invade the farmland and grassland farms, she would no matter how long the plant grew, and self-comfort should be regarded as adding a little plant diversity to the spiritual realm, after all, this is one of the three major gum-producing plants.

Now, Qi Ke deeply feels that fortunately, this invasive plant is not easy to clean up, otherwise he won't know where to use rubber in the future.

The process of extracting latex from silver gum chrysanthemum is complicated, and organic solvents are used, and it seems that she has to engage in chemistry when she learns machinery, but she will definitely find a way to establish a rubber product production line.

Qi Ke clenched her fists to cheer herself up, carried her tools and walked towards the first silver gum chrysanthemum she saw, trying to use her innate skills as the master of the spirit realm to pull out these silver gum chrysanthemums so that they could be transplanted into the No. 2 field.
