Chapter 205: Expedited delivery at the post station
"I can't find any useful data here, and I haven't cultivated it for a long time, so it's a barren land." Dongfang Yi was facing the loess with his back to the sky, and the sweat on his forehead was about to fall.
"Tsk...... Since you can't find it on the surface, you can only dig three feet into the ground. Nalan Jin looked up and saw the same situation.
Dig three feet into the ground!
Dongfang Yi instantly felt that life had lost the meaning of treating him well, this digging three feet into the ground, there was no one around to help, and every inch of soil had to be turned over by Dongfang Yi himself.
Dongfang Yi, who has always relied only on his brainpower to eat, suddenly let him show off his strength, which is really a little embarrassing for his reputation as a talent.
"Jin'er, you can also see that this land is harder than iron at all, my strength, why don't we find a few subordinates to help." Dongfang Yi frowned, his face full of sorrow.
"Yes, if you can find someone, you can find it." Nalan Jin shrugged her shoulders easily, saying that she had no objection to Dongfang Yi looking for a helper.
"I ......" Dongfang Yi only remembered when he said that this was where Fengcheng came from to have a subordinate for him, "Or let's spend money to hire a few people." ”
"Well, that's a good suggestion, if you have any money, hire more, I don't object to it at all." Nalan Jin pinched her chin and tilted her head to look at Dongfang Yi.
After turning over and over, Dongfang Yi put forward several conditions, none of which could be used. It's all bells and whistles that don't fit in the way.
"I ...... I think I'd better do it myself. Do-it-yourself, plenty of food and clothing. ”
After going around and around, Dongfang Yi finally decided to do it himself. It took half a day to turn over the stiff soil of the epidermis, and I was already tired and sweating.
But Nalan Jin sat easily on the side and knocked melon seeds, and from time to time pointed fingers at Dongfang Yi and arranged how he would dig.
"Are melon seeds delicious? I'm half tired here, can't you help me? Dongfang Yi pretended to be angry and asked Nalan Jin.
"Haven't I been helping you, if you don't appreciate it, forget it, and still talk about me here." Nalan family, you pouted aggrievedly.
"Can you help me? What did you help me, I only saw that you had been eating melon seeds there, and you didn't help me at all. Dongfang looked around puzzled, making sure that it was all the ground he dug himself.
"Didn't I give you a command? Otherwise, how could you have dug such a big pile so quickly. Nalan Jin stood up and gestured to say out of breath.
“…… You're doing all of this work, aren't you? You wait for me, I have to clean you up if I catch you. Dongfang Yi threw away the shovel and ran over to catch Nalan Jin.
Dongfang Yi was speechless for an instant, his head was full of black lines, looking at Nalan Jin's innocent and cute appearance, he was angry and annoyed, and finally threw away the shovel in his hand speechlessly and chased after Nalan Jin.
"Okay, okay, don't run, I'm tired, I'll surrender what you did, you can do it. Don't you just want me to help? As for dealing with me like this? Let you see what is
Real strength. ”
Nalan Jin raised her hands in surrender, propped her hands on her knees, and breathed heavily. was out of breath, and did not forget to accuse Dongfang Yi.
"Come, I'd like to see what you're capable of. Find moist soil in the shortest possible time. Dongfang Yi was not convinced, his hands were on his waist, and he had to compete with Nalan Jin.
It was also Dongfang Yi who was about to dig into the moist soil, just to let Nalan Jin help him, he didn't dig more. Nalan Jin just dug twice into the moist soil and came out.
"See, this is called real strength, just a little bit of strength can be dug up." Nalan Jin proudly showed off in front of Dongfang Yi.
"It's not that I've been digging for so long, and I've dug up the dry soil on the skin, that's why you can dig into the wet soil so smoothly." Dongfang Yi defended himself unconvinced.
"Don't care what you say, just say I didn't dig it up, right?" Nalan Jinde's chin was raised.
"Okay, well, you dug it up, and I don't bother to quibble with you. If you dig it, you can quickly see what is suitable for planting, and hurry up to prescribe the right medicine, so that you can learn textile technology later. ”
It took a long time to dig up the wet soil, and Dongfang Yi thought that while it still had a little moisture, it was the best time for analysis.
Nalan Jin took the soil back to the inn, studied it for a long time, and according to the words of the noodle shop proprietor, she felt that the soil in Fengcheng was suitable for growing cold-tolerant winter crops, and the cycle was relatively long.
In this way, it can resist the sudden change of climate in Fengcheng in the morning and evening, and can also be self-sufficient when the rain is not sufficient, even if it is ten days and half a month, it will not affect the growth of crops.
"Dongfang, what do you think of my analysis? What is there to add? Nalan Jin expressed his opinion at length.
"The analysis is very thorough, and I think the main point is that people here don't seem to like to eat noodles, and when growing crops, you can consider following their preferences, such as millet and millet." Dongfang Yi observed carefully, but discovered the eating habits of the people here.
"Well, I also have plans in this regard, and in addition to vegetables, you can grow radish, which is not afraid of the cold and has high nutritional value." Nalan Jin continued.
Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi sang and harmonized, but the husband and wife partners were not tired of working. All the plans are outlined, just put them into action step by step.
"But there's another problem, there are no seeds, no matter how good our plan is, it's useless." Dongfang Yi suddenly thought of a serious question.
"We can ask grandpa to send the seeds over quickly, and it will only take three to five days to plant." Nalan Jin held her chin with one hand and kept knocking on the table.
"Three or five days, have you forgotten how long it took us to come here? Didn't you think that you had too much brains just now, and you can't turn a corner for such a simple thing? Dongfang Yi knocked on Nalan Jin's head, and finally let him seize the opportunity to ridicule Nalan Jinyi
Times.
Seeing that Dongfang Yi finally laughed heartily, Nalan Jin couldn't bear to disturb her good mood. Just silently took out her marquis token and dangled it in front of Dongfang Yi.
"You must have forgotten that there is a caravanserai, do you? In this case, it will definitely be in three or five days. Nalan Jin looked at the token in his hand and said affirmatively.
Dongfang Yi raised his hand and patted his head, only to find that he had once again fallen into Nalan Jin's trap. The recent series of events made him almost forget that Nalan Jin was a hereditary marquis.
As long as Nalan Jin took out her token, those post stations would not dare not accept it.
Without further ado.
Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi repaired a book overnight, and got the post station to show Nalan Jin's marquis token, and the people at the post station quickly whipped up overnight. Along the way, several good horses and fast horses died, and soon Nalan Log's letter was delivered to Nalan Zhen's hands.
Nalan Zhen was very excited when he received the new one, and thought that it would be back soon.
"Old man, what did the young lady say in the letter?" Uncle Xing asked happily.
After reading the letter, Nalan Zhen's face became serious.
"You immediately follow what Jin'er said in the letter, prepare the things immediately, and let this official take them away." Nalan Zhen handed the letter to Uncle Xing.
Seeing Nalan Zhen's serious expression, Uncle Xing knew that the letter from Nalan Jin was extraordinary.
So he hurriedly packed the seeds according to the requirements in his heart, and let the officials of the post station take them away the same way.
After the officials of the post station left, Uncle Xing read the contents of the letter again.
"Old man, what is this young lady going to do in this Maple City, why did she suddenly write back and let me send seeds?" Uncle Xing asked puzzledly with the letter.
"I don't know the specifics, I just say that it's a thing for a thing, to learn textile technology, I don't know anything else, if you want to know the truth of the matter, you can only wait until she comes back." Nalan Zhen furrowed his eyebrows and raised his head to look in the direction of Fengcheng.
"Miss's work is always unexpected, but I believe that with my aunt by her side, they should know how to measure." Uncle Xing nodded comfortingly.
"The only thing that is certain now is that Jin'er is safe."
No matter what Nalan Jin was doing outside, as long as Nalan Zhen thought that she was safe and sound, even if he wrote back to ask the entire Nalan Mansion to relocate, he would not hesitate to do so.
Nalan Jin did not relax while waiting for the seeds, she went to the noodle restaurant every day, gossiping with the proprietress even if she didn't eat, and found some valuable clues from their conversations.
It is convenient for them to not easily go astray when planting and being me.
"Can we really do that? There has been a famine here for a long time. Dongfang Yi is still a little worried.
"The specific countermeasures were discussed by the two of us, and we must believe that it will work, otherwise all the efforts we have made here will be in vain." Nalan Jin bit her lower lip and looked at the door waiting for the people from the post station to come.
"As long as you decide, I believe you will be able to do it."
Dongfang Yi held Nalan Jin's hand and slightly hooked the corners of his mouth.
The time of waiting for the arrival of the people at the post station was long and boring, but they did not dare to do anything else, so they could only sit down patiently and wait. For fear of turning around, the people at the post station will not be able to find them, and they will miss a lot of time.
"It's the seventh day, why don't you recommend our people to come? Did something happen on the road? Nalan Jin couldn't hold it back.
"I've been waiting for so many days, maybe I'm already on my way here, so I'll wait a little longer." Dongfang Yi comforted Nalan Jin with reassuring words.
After waiting for so long, Dongfang Yi gradually lost confidence, not to mention Nalan Jin, who patted his chest and assured.
If the people at the inn do not arrive within the stipulated time, all the efforts made before will be in vain.
"Is Nalan Jin here?" The people from the post station brought it to look around.
"In! I am here! Nalan jumped up excitedly and kept waving.
