Liu Ci reclaimed two acres of "self-reserved land" that was not included in the manor's spring ploughing plan, which was her small vegetable garden.

However, she did not do the work of digging the soil herself. Nana wanted to rush to do it, and Sanman also rushed to do it, and in the end, Hansen, who was still thinking about the technique of raising chickens, drove the oxen, and turned over two acres of land in an hour with a curved plow, and Nana and Sanman didn't grab it.

Liu Ci rummaged through the lotus pond space, and there were not many varieties of vegetable seeds she brought out from the crystal mine, only a few kinds such as cabbage and cucumbers, which were slowly domesticated from wild products. After planting for a few years, the seeds are not very good, at least they have been completely transformed into aura seeds.

One acre of land, Liu Ci sprinkled wheat seeds.

The remaining acre of land is ready to be used as a private vegetable garden. Vegetables can not be kept for a long time when they are picked, one acre of vegetable garden is enough for her needs on weekdays, and after a few days, let people open a few acres of land next to it, Liu Ci estimates that the sweet potatoes that are seedlings will sprout.

Sweet potatoes, corn, soybeans and other crops, even if you don't eat them yourself, what about livestock?

It seems that people have to set up sheds at the downwind outlet, and without spring water to irrigate the livestock that grow up and feed them, Liu Ci's future dining table can be foreseen how single it will be.

Dig a small pond, plant some lotus roots, raise some fish, and your life will be almost as easy as when you were in the crystal mine.

When the vegetable garden is verdant, the livestock are slaughtered, and the lotus is full of lotuses, there is a gathering spirit array to help cultivate, and the small days are leisurely and leisurely, and there is a lack of a foodie silver wolf - the manor is still too simple, and she feels ashamed to invite the wolf god to come, I don't know if the last time the cooing bird returned to the Moloch Mountains after sending her winter clothes, did she tell other monsters about her downfall?

Wait for the completion of the "Imperial Palace" built in the style of Daming Palace, and then invite the wolf god to live for a long time...... I don't know if by then, the matter of the wolf god will be resolved, will she have the strength to take the wolf god wherever she wants, without worrying about the eyes of other people on the mainland, and without worrying about being burned to death by the Holy See as a "heretic"?

There will come a day, as long as she works hard enough!

Liu Ci gently covered the wheat seeds with a hoe, full of optimism and hope for the future life. The character of looking ahead and looking forward is unacceptable, and it is also a loss that Liu Ci is a lack of heart at a certain level.

The yield of spring potatoes per mu can reach 3,000 kilograms, and Liu Ci's own private field, in line with the principle of extensive management, only seeks to achieve one-third of the yield per acre. Sweet potatoes eat too much flatulence, and she is not in the period of lack of food and clothing in the Morok Mountains now, this thing is mainly to feed it to livestock, who is impatient to eat it all day long?

Liu Ci asked Harvey to send a few clay pots, picked out the sweet potatoes with many sprouts, put them in the jars, covered them with soil and half-rotten bamboo leaves, and threw them into the house. It is necessary to wait until the germ emerges from the mouth of the bud before the sweet potato can be cut into pieces with the sprouts and planted in the ground. Liu Ci didn't have much sweet potatoes left for seeding, and most of the harvest in the crystal mine was ground into flour and stored...... Elsewhere, she had never seen anyone grow sweet potatoes in the Rhine City or in the parish of Emst.

There are no sweet potatoes for sale in the farmers' market, Liu Ci wondered, can he give some seeds to the people of the manor, the tips of sweet potato vines are also very fresh vegetables, but I don't know if the market in the other world can accept it.

Bean sprouts Emster people quickly adapt to it, because bean sprouts are still refreshing and crisp after being cooked for a long time, and can be used as a side dish for fried meat and barbecue, which is fragrant and greasy, which is more in line with the eating habits of Emst people. Although the food culture of the other world is different from that of the earth, it does not mean that the chefs of the other world will not even know the ingredients to use.

Thinking far again!

After planting wheat, Liu Ci planted the vegetable seeds that could be planted in March.

The thunder starts, and the earth rejuvenates. In March, there are two traditional solar terms in China, "stunning" and "spring equinox", stinging in early March, although Liu Ci did not really hear the thunder, it is estimated that the time referred to in the agricultural book at this time is about the same. After the sting, the weather becomes warmer, into the early spring, the temperature will continue to rise, the weather changes greatly, many crops in the growth process and wheat need the same "vernalization", so suitable for sowing in March vegetable varieties are more.

Sowing seeds in March, the earliest vegetables can be harvested from May, and summer has always been a high-yield period for fruits and vegetables.

The vegetables that Liu Ci grows are some of the varieties brought out of the crystal mines, and some of them are taken from Zhuangzi.

Tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, cucumbers, pumpkins, cowpeas, loofahs, these vegetables need to be transplanted after seedlings. Leafy vegetables such as shallots, celery, cabbage, spinach, and radishes can be reclaimed directly, sprinkled with seeds, and then covered with watering and fertilizing. According to Liu Ci's own summary, it is probably more troublesome to eat the fruits of the vegetables, which need to be raised first and then transplanted into the vegetable garden. The "leafy vegetables" that eat the stems and leaves are relatively simple, and the seeds are ready.

After two busy days, Liu Ci's private vegetable garden was planned and managed, and she remembered that when she bought the wheat seeds, James said that he had brought back some fruit seedlings, which are still stacked in the greenhouse.

There are three kinds of fruit seedlings, Liu Ci only recognized one apple, and she didn't recognize the other two, which may be a specialty only in the other world.

Apples are hardy and do on earth grown in northern China. Liu Ci had eaten apples from the Rhineland, and the taste was no different from what he had eaten before, the fruit was a little smaller in size, but sweeter.

"What kind of fruit trees are these two?"

"The long leaves are pointy, and the trunk has red stripes, like a Yedan orange ......, and the other round leaf is a red raspberry, which I heard came from the Ruilan Empire."

The one who recognized the two fruit trees was actually the fat black woman who asked questions in the tea garden.

"Oh, how did you recognize that?" Liu Ci asked.

The fat black woman said worriedly, "Miss, the little woman has seen her in the garden of the noble lord who works before. ”

Liu Ci became more and more pleasant, "What work are you responsible for in the nobleman's garden, are you planting flowers?" ”

The woman shook her head, "Just taking care of the fruit trees." ”

Liu Ci was a little disappointed, and thought that if he found a florist who could plant flowers, the flower seedlings cultivated in the greenhouse would be explained. However, it is better to take care of fruit trees than to not know anything. Liu Ci looked at the saplings in the shed, there were more than 20 apples, Yedan oranges, the name sounds like a specialty of the Yesdan diocese, and there are also 20 trees. Ruilan's specialty red raspberries are fewer, only fifteen.

"What's your name?"

"Miss Hui, Mace." The black fat woman blushed as she spoke, "Mace" means white and beautiful in the spur language, and it is also the name of a famous priestess in the legend of the Holy See, and the image of the black fat woman is very different, no wonder she is embarrassed.

Liu Ci didn't know at all, her understanding of the other world was not detailed enough to even know the allusions of the Holy See.

"There are sixty fruit tree saplings here, and more to come, for you to take care of, would you like it, Mace?"

Mace nodded and signed the employment contract, the master told the contractors to do anything, did they dare to resist? Liu Ci also asked her opinion, and Mace was not stupid enough to refuse. She had taken care of fruit trees since she came, and she had some experience.

"Okay, James, pick two stronger ones to dig a pit, the height of the fruit trees on the slope is the same as the tea plantation, and start planting them next to the boundary of the West Mountain to the South Mountain, and when they are planted, I will go and see again."

The chief housekeeper James knew the manpower operation of the manor very well, although in front of everyone, Liu Ci did not arrange it directly from him, so as not to disrupt James's manpower plan arranged in the morning.

The snow melts in the spring, and the future development of the manor depends on whether the foundation laid for the first large-scale planting of various crops this year is good, everyone throws off their arms and works in full swing, even the children will do their best to help, Liu Ci, as the master, can't let people lose half of the work as soon as they think of something, and make a mess of the farming plan.

"Mace, keep one of each tree when you plant it, and plant it behind the small building where I live!"

"Yes, miss."

Tea was planted, wheat was planted, peas were planted, and ponds were dug.

The largest project to be completed in the near future is undoubtedly the transplantation of grape vine seedlings and the cultivation of flowers in greenhouses. The flower seeds are planted in a few small clay pots, and then they are not divided, and the flower seedlings are congenitally insufficient, and they are also thin and difficult to grow in the future.

Liu Ci was about to talk to James when his ears moved slightly, far beyond the ear power of ordinary people, and he had already heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching the valley.

Listening to the sound of only one horse, who could it be?

Liu Ci looked at the mouth of the valley, the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, and a figure with a hat rode across the dirt slope and appeared in everyone's field of vision.

A red-maned horse, stepping over the dirt slope and running across the stone bridge erected over the snow canal, because the manor had not built a gate wall, ran along the main road until it was not far in front of Liu Ci before stopping.

The young knight on horseback flipped down and smiled at Liu Ci: "Your Royal Highness the beautiful princess, can you travel the entire continent with me?" As long as you want, we can go to Ruilan to see the sea and go to Xiyi...... Ahh

Liu Ci kicked him, "Speak well, how can you be willing to come back from the city?" ”

The young man is Stull, since the last time he was in the city, Liu Ci was greedy for the effect of the Spirit Gathering Array, and had been practicing in the Zhuangzi, while Stull was busy selling vegetables in the city and opening branches, and the two had indeed not seen each other for more than a month.

"Hey, the manor has changed quite a lot, boss, you even planted wheat? The hired farmers in my farm have been planting grapes for the past two days, and I don't know if they have planted them at the right time. ”

Stuart was very interested in the changes in the manor, and handed over the horse to his subordinates, and Liu Ci, as the master, had to lead him around himself.

The land sold by Stuart was half smaller than that of Liu Ci, and it was not such a terrain surrounded by mountains on three sides, and Liu Ci would pass by the boundary when he entered the city and look at it from a distance. The terrain is different, the planting environment is naturally different, and there is nothing to learn from the greenhouse, and his manor cannot completely copy Liu Ci's planting model here.

Stuart also knew that he was not so stupid that Liu Ci would follow him. In the Oasis in the Amster Mountains, the most profitable thing is the high-quality grapes, and when Liu Ci brought back the grape seedlings, Stuart also prepared a large number of vine seedlings, and the people of Zhuangzi have been transplanting them in the past few days.

"That's right, three or four hundred of your land will be planted with grapes, and you must come back to supervise it."

After Liu Ci finished speaking, Stuart nodded: "I even got into the old book, of course I have to come back to take a look." But that's just one reason, you don't know, boss, there are other vegetables in the city! ”

Liu Ci's footsteps were stagnant, and he soon continued to move forward as if nothing had happened.

"What's so strange about that, we've been selling vegetables in Emstead for more than two months, right? Ice and snow road closure, can not stop the pace of businessmen chasing profits, in the past they were disgusted with the transportation of vegetables, the road loss is large, now know to make money, the road is far away is nothing. ”

What Liu Ci said makes sense, and as a businessman, Stuart can best understand the feelings of other colleagues.

Seeing that Liu Ci didn't pay much attention to it, Stuart frowned: "It's nothing to bring in vegetables from other places, but among the varieties they sell, there are bean sprouts that make us the fastest money, I always feel that something is wrong......

Liu Ci stopped.

There are no other vegetables, bean sprouts are a "new product" opened up by Liu Ci, with low cost and fast harvest, relying on bean sprouts, both of them have made a lot of money, and they are also an exclusive monopoly product in Amster City.

The technology of bean sprouts is not difficult, and after two months on the market, Liu Ci was not surprised that there were smart people who successfully cultivated "bean sprouts" after continuous experiments. But this bean sprouts poured into Amster City along with a large number of other vegetables, and Liu Ci felt that the other party was not only aiming to make gold coins, but also had the intention of suppressing the market share of "Four Seasons Fresh".

Is it a purely competitive business act? Liu Ci was skeptical.

"Bean sprouts too? Do you know where they come from? ”
