Chapter 120: Rumors
It was already a month later for Banxia to receive a letter from the capital.
Now she doesn't know how much the two little girls in the capital miss her.
Nowadays, Banxia's mind is full of sweet potatoes, potatoes, potatoes, sweet potatoes.
Su Zhiyuan is more attentive than her, from the first day of the trial, he sent two catchers to guard in the courtyard, and the master took up the pen every day to make personal records, and even the Tongzhi Lord Xu, who had not gone out for a long time, also came.
There are rumors in Qianzhou City: Lord Zhizhou is going to make a big move again!
I heard that it is a high-yield grain!
If you succeed, you won't go hungry again!
I heard that it was the seed found by Mrs. Zhizhou!
Everyone talked about it, but the government kept silent.
Some people believe it, while others question: "How productive can it be so that everyone doesn't go hungry?" ”
"That's it, can you produce 500 catties per mu?"
"Five hundred pounds, you're crazy!"
The man retorted: "If you don't have five hundred catties, it's a high yield." ”
It was bustling outside, but there was silence in the governor's mansion.
Su Zhiyuan, Master Xu and Master squatted in the courtyard, looking at the sweet potatoes and potatoes that had not yet changed.
Banxia stood behind them: "A few adults, let's go into the house and drink tea!" I haven't seen anything in the past few days. ”
The old fan brother Lord Xu was the first to stand up: "Mrs. Su is really the lucky star of our Qianzhou!" ”
The master was also very excited: "I heard that these two foods can produce thousands of catties per mu, but is it true?" ”
The two and a half old men gathered around Banxia, their eyes sunken, but their eyes were amazingly bright.
Banxia touched her goosebumps and felt cautious!
Su Zhiyuan opened Banxia without a trace: "Go to the study for a cup of tea, sit down and talk slowly." ”
Den.
A few people just sat down, and the old fan brother had a pair of Kazlan ...... Well...... The bright little eyes stared at Banxia.
Banxia's hand that was about to take the teacup paused: "If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
Lord Xu "hehe" laughed a few times: "We just heard a little bit from Master Su, I heard that the seeds of these two foods belong to Mrs.?" ”
Banxia took a sip of tea and took out the words that he had discussed with Su Zhiyuan before: "The seed was obtained by my father by chance. When my father was alive, he often collected and sold medicines, and knew some simple medical knowledge. Later, when I went up the mountain, I happened to meet a foreigner, and the man gave him this kind of son in gratitude to his father. ”
Lord Xu was puzzled: "Why didn't you plant it at that time?" ”
"Because we have never seen these two kinds of seeds, and besides, the Gentiles say that these two things can yield a thousand pounds per mu, which is so incredible that my father did not pay attention to it."
"If you didn't take it to heart, how could you record it in a book?" The master questioned.
"It may be that my father didn't care, so I asked my father to write down the method, in case my father believes it or has a whim, it will come in handy!"
The master stroked his beard.
Banxia continued: "It's a pity that the book was thrown directly in the corner, and later it was stained with water, and the method of planting potatoes has been blurred. ”
"Where's that book, can I have the pleasure of reading it?" Master and Master Xu looked at Banxia expectantly.
"Yes," Banxia turned her head to the door and raised her voice, "Mama Su." ”
Mama Su pushed the door in.
"Go to my box and bring that blue-covered, nameless book."
"Yes, ma'am."
In the restless waiting of Master Xu and Master Xu, they finally saw the worn-out, yellowed, and dripping book.
