"They're all here?"

Li Shulan put down the work at hand, got up and walked out, "It's time to meet them, I hope this year will bring good news." ”

The master and servant walked to the main hall in the front yard.

Several plainly dressed stewards were already waiting inside for their master's appearance.

"You're here."

Li Shulan took the initiative to speak, "You have worked hard to run all the way, sit down and rest, eat what you should eat, drink what you should drink, you are welcome." ”

As he spoke, he stepped in.

He walked to the throne and sat down.

"I've seen Madame!"

The five honest and responsible heads hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"Alright, let's all sit down."

Li Shulan waved her hand.

His eyes swept over them, "This time I asked you to make a personal trip, mainly to find out how the new varieties were harvested last year." ”

Li Shulan attached great importance to the seeds he had scavenged in the foreign store at the beginning of last year, and personally planted them in the garden to take care of the season.

Until a large number of potatoes, green beans, cassava, sweet potatoes, cold potatoes, pumpkins, cucumbers are harvested...... The papaya tree was cultivated, and last year it did not bear fruit, and this year several trees are full of papayas.

She didn't want to eat these things that she cultivated with her own hands, so she kept them all as seeds.

Last year, we divided these things into five portions and let the five heads of the village take them back and plant them.

Of course, she spends a lot of time explaining how to grow these crops.

Now, more than half a year has passed.

She waited for them to report on the harvest.

"Mrs. Hui, these new varieties have a good harvest."

Old man Gu was the first to respond, "Green beans, cucumbers, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cold potatoes and pumpkins We all brought four carts this time, as for the cassava has not been dug up yet, I don't know what the yield will be for the time being." ”

"The cassava industry is not going to be far behind."

Li Shulan knows that except for green beans and cucumber cold potatoes that need a little more watering, the rest are all drought-tolerant crops, which are also high-yielding.

"What Madame said is very true, this time we will bring five truckloads of new varieties of energy crops."

Zhuang Tou from Hongye Village continued: "The old slave has been farming all his life, and it is really incredible that he has never seen such a high-yield agricultural product. ”

"These new seeds found by Madame are not only easy to take care of, but also not very strenuous, and occasionally watered, you can harvest such a high yield, which really surprises the old slave."

"If we hadn't planted these crops ourselves, the old slave wouldn't have believed that the yield of these things was so high."

"Madame, can these crops be planted for another season? If you can grow twice a year, wouldn't these yields be even higher? ”

As soon as this question came out of Zhuangtou in Dam Village, everyone couldn't help but look at Li Shulan.

As tenants, they are well aware that there are some things that can be grown twice a year.

However, they don't know much about these new varieties, so they can only ask the people in front of them.

"I guess so."

Li Shulan knows that some can, and some may not, "You can give it a try, you also know how to keep seeds, you can give it a try when you go back." ”

Looking at the people in front of her, she said: "These things planted this year are mainly used to keep seeds, and next year I want you to plant a lot of these new varieties."

When you go back and plan out the plots that are almost used for planting, you should understand that there are several kinds of potatoes in particular that are particularly yielding and are easier to harvest than growing staple foods such as rice and wheat. ”

"Madame, don't worry, the old slave will be arranged."

Old man Gu responded, "Some fields with relatively scarce water do not have such good harvests, and it is indeed cost-effective to plant such high-yield crops." ”

The other bankers nodded their heads in agreement.

Of course, the main thing is that they see the yield in front of them, otherwise they would never agree to this plan, which is their life.

"By the way, our workshop is going to recruit some more people."

Li Shulan thought that the workshop was still short of manpower, so she took this opportunity to mention to them, "You can pick a few young people with good character and diligence when you go back."

Of course, I still say that you pick people to be responsible for them, and if something goes wrong with these people who are sent, you will also be responsible and punished. ”

"Madam, the old slave understands."

"Don't worry, madam, the little one knows this."

"The old slave doesn't dare to fool Madame."

……

The bankers have known this for a long time.

They were glad in their hearts for their tenants.

After all, it is better to go to the city to work than to pick up food in the field, at least without wind and sun, and life is definitely much better than in Zhuangzi.

I discussed some things with them again, and then let them go to live in the West Street compound for one night and leave tomorrow.

After a while.

The housekeeper Geng Lao wiped his sweat and said excitedly: "Madam, all the things sent by the village leaders are overweighed.

There are about 1,300 catties of potatoes, and more than 900 catties of beans and melons combined.

The old slave couldn't believe that the seeds, which were only about one or two hundred catties at the beginning, could produce so much food, which was really amazing. ”

"You're wrong, it's only part of it."

Li Shulan smiled slightly, "There are still some that have not been successful, and I am going to ask them to keep them as seeds to see if another batch can be planted in the second half of the year." ”

Geng Lao's eyes widened instantly, and he asked in disbelief, "Madam, can these things be planted for two seasons?" ”

"It should be possible, I remember that except for cassava, everything else can be harvested in three or four months, and it is definitely enough time to plant two crops a year."

Geng Lao was completely stunned, and muttered, "Oh my God, if you can grow two crops a year, then wouldn't these yields be ......

If these crops can be grown for two seasons as Madame said, the people of our country will never go hungry again. ”

Although Duanguo is now considered a peaceful and prosperous era, for ordinary people, it is just barely surviving.

More people are in the predicament of lack of food and clothing, and if there is a natural disaster, people will still starve to death.

Aunt Xiyu, who had never spoken, froze when she heard these words.

She couldn't help but hear in her mind the proposal of Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu in the capital, hoping that her wife could be canonized by Chaoyan and become a life-saving talisman for her wife and sons.

She never understood why Mrs. Xu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said such a 'whimsical' thing.

returned to the capital as his own wife and recognized the prince, with the identity of the wife of the prince, it was enough for the lady to gain a foothold in the capital, and no one dared to underestimate his wife.

At that time, she wondered if the Xu family had any tricks against her wife, and specially sent news to the son.

Unexpectedly, the news sent back by the prince made her shocked and frightened.

I couldn't help but worry about Mrs. and Miss Childe.

Now......

Aunt Xiyu couldn't help but speak: "Madam, the yield of these imported crops is so high, you can treat these foods as 'auspicious' and report them to Chaoyan." ”
