Chapter 28: Don't use it indiscriminately
After sending enough medicinal juice to Master Tan's side, Ye Xi waited to see the results.
Although she knew that the pearl dew water plant must be useful, after all, many people have used it in modern times, and it has been tested for many years.
However, I am still a little apprehensive in my heart, and I don't know how much loss I can help Master Tan recover this time.
After dinner, Wang and Ye Xi sat in the courtyard and talked.
"Do you think that medicine can really cure Master Tan's silkworm?" Wang stared at Ye Xi closely.
"Actually, that medicine can't cure the disease."
"Can't be cured?" Wang's face was full of surprise.
"Yes, the effect of that medicine is to make silkworms spin silk and cocoon in advance and recover losses. Master Tan's silkworm died quickly, and the condition was menacing, but I was afraid that it would not be able to be controlled in a short time. Ye Xi sighed.
Wang was quite surprised, "There is such a medicine, I have raised silkworms for so many years, but I have never known this." ”
"I also overheard people talk about it, what kind of effect it has, and whether it can really recover the loss, just wait and see!"
"Now that's it, we'll just have to wait and see. I hope I'm sure! Wang sighed.
If you can't help Master Tan, you really can't help others.
"Xiao Xi! I know you're well-intentioned, too, but ...... In the future, we should be more cautious about such things. Wang looked at Ye Xi seriously.
Ye Xi nodded, "What my mother taught me is that I should be more cautious in my future work." ”
Of course, she can't explain that some people have been raising silkworms with pearl dew grass for many years. If it was really just hearsay, of course she didn't dare to say what she was sure of.
"You're tired today, go to bed early! You're not healed yet! You still have to take care of it. ”
"Mother also goes to bed early."
At noon the next day, Yao Dong and Yao Nu hurriedly came to find Ye Xi.
"Is there something wrong with Master Tan's silkworm?" Ye Xi asked a little eagerly. In fact, she also has a heart!
"It's changed, it looks like it's all neat and it's about to start spinning." Yao Dong smiled, "The owner thinks I'd better invite you to take a look." ”
"Really?" Ye Xi also laughed, "That's fine, if that's the case, the condition should be under control." ”
"What the hell is that medicine of yours? It's so easy to use! Yao Nu asked.
Yao Dong glared at his sister-in-law, "How can you ask casually like this?" ”
This kind of good thing can be of great help when it is critical. It's generally a secret recipe, after all, it's a valuable thing.
Yao Nu bit her lip and looked at Ye Xi apologetically.
"We're our own people, and there's nothing we can't say. I'll tell you how to use it later! In fact, such things should not be used indiscriminately. Ye Xi smiled.
If ecdysone is used well, of course, it saves mulberry leaves and manpower, and the available is not suitable, but it is not beneficial.
In order to promote silkworms to spin silk early, some will save more mulberry leaves, and will feed them earlier, so that not only the yield of silkworm cocoons will be greatly reduced, but even the quality will be greatly affected.
After all, if the silkworm is healthy, it can eat more mulberry leaves, continue the growth cycle more, and of course the yield should be higher.
In modern times, in order to delay the silkworm spinning time, so that the size of the silkworm grows larger, it will also feed the juvenile hormone, and when the silkworm is really partially mature, it will use peeling hormone to make the silkworm neatly clustered.
