Chapter 699: Great Harvest
Angelica cocked his thumb and said with a smile: "Lord Xu is smart, because the greenhouse is used here, and the temperature inside the greenhouse is very high, so the sweet potatoes grow fast, and over there in Linping Town, the sweet potatoes grow outside, and the temperature is very low, so they have to grow slowly." ”
"Oh, I see." Xu Youcai suddenly realized.
He pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned his gaze back to look at Angelica: "Girl, since the use of greenhouses can grow crops that cannot grow in the cold winter, isn't it possible to use this kind of greenhouses to grow all over the country?" ”
Angelica nodded: "Naturally, it is possible, but the cost is higher than that of normally grown crops." ”
"A slight increase in cost, for the people to have enough food for the winter, it is worth it, when the girl, your invention, is really for the benefit of the world, really admirable."
Angelica waved his hand and said modestly: "Lord Xu has an overreputation, I am just an ordinary village girl, and I have spent more time in the field, so I have figured out a little experience, which is nothing." ”
Angelica said, turned around and looked at the other side: "Let's go and see the harvest of other greenhouses." ”
The two chatted as they walked to the private shed opposite.
At this moment, after walking a short distance, he met a farmer carrying a burden, and in the basket under his burden were large red-skinned sweet potatoes, and he carried the burden with a joyful smile on his face.
"Uncle Zhang, how is this sweet potato harvest?"
When Angelica saw the farmer, he greeted him cordially.
The farmer was originally bent over by the courage on his shoulder, and his head was lowered, so he didn't see Angelica and Xu Youcai walking in front of him.
Hearing Angelica's voice at this time, he immediately raised his head, put down the basket on his shoulder, and then bowed down to Angelica: "Be a girl, you are the savior of our family, if you didn't teach us to grow sweet potatoes, we would have starved to death by now." ”
Angelica hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to support him: "Uncle Zhang is polite, this is all because of everyone's hard work, so we have today's harvest." ”
"No, it's the credit of being a girl, if we hadn't been a girl, we would have starved to death."
Angelica smiled and said: "If Uncle Zhang really wants to say credit, it is also the credit of the Duke of Yi, I just follow the instructions of the Duke of Yi to do things." ”
When Angelica said this, Xu Youcai subconsciously glanced at Angelica, and sighed in his heart, this girl is really a strange woman, not only has an immortal talent, but also does not compete for merit, everything is important to the Duke of Yi.
It is really a blessing for the Duke of Yi to have such a capable and virtuous wife-to-be.
Uncle Zhang nodded, with a smile on his face: "Yes, yes, the people of Anyi City, it is really our blessing to meet Yi Gong, Yi Gong and Dang Girl, it is simply a Bodhisattva who came down to save us." ”
Angelica smiled and did not speak.
Xu Youcai reminded: "When the girl just asked you." ”
"Huh?" The honest and honest farmer sighed, and after thinking about it carefully, he remembered that Angelica had just asked him how the harvest was.
He hurriedly said: "The harvest is good, the harvest is very good, my family started to harvest sweet potatoes yesterday, and now I have dug an acre of land, I estimate, we have harvested three or four thousand catties of sweet potatoes per acre, and our family is very happy."
This is a great harvest that I have never seen since I was a child. ”
