In the next few days, the school captain's mansion returned to its former calm, and the relationship between Wei Ruo and his family was even colder than when he first arrived.

Especially with the Yun family, when the Yun family was enthusiastic about Wei Ruo, Wei Ruo's reaction was not very eager, but now that the Yun family is cold, Wei Ruo's head is even colder.

Wei Yichen was a little worried about this, but Wei Ruo didn't care.

She didn't care what the rest of the family thought of her, she had several things on her hands that needed to be busy.

First of all, the sweet potatoes on Xiaoyang Mountain have grown vine leaves.

Sweet potato vine leaves (sweet potato leaves) are also a good food that can be picked and eaten as a green vegetable, which is an additional benefit for sweet potatoes before they ripen.

And sweet potato leaves have the advantage that they can be sold and picked as much as they want, and if they can't be sold, they will be left in the ground to provide nutrients for the sweet potato tubers underground.

The first time she picked sweet potato vine leaves, the nurse was a little unsure, and Wei Ruo sent Xiumei over because it was inconvenient to enter and exit.

As soon as she walked out of the door of the captain's mansion, Xiumei put on her hat.

After Xiumei and the nurse met, the two instructed the long-term workers to select a part of the sweet potato field to pick, and the picked sweet potato vine leaves were divided into handfuls, tied with straw, loaded in baskets, and placed on ox carts that were convenient for transportation.

Considering that the people did not know enough about sweet potato vine leaves for the first time, Xiumei and the nurse only picked two baskets according to Wei Ruo's instructions.

The ox cart was then transported to the market for sale for two pennies a handful.

This price is set by Wei Ruo, the price is not expensive, and the profit is small but the turnover is high.

Wei Ruo's pricing of agricultural products is generally not too high, and he pursues winning by quantity; On the contrary, on some things that only the children of high-ranking officials and wealthy families can afford, Wei Ruo will set a high price as much as possible.

Moreover, the sale of sweet potato vine leaves is also to better promote the sweet potato crop and warm up for the subsequent listing of a larger number of sweet potatoes.

On the way to the market, the nurse also went home to fry a large plate and took it to the market.

After bringing it to the market, roll the smaller rice dumpling leaves into a funnel shape, and divide the fried sweet potato vine leaves into it, each containing only one bite.

Then let the long-term worker who helped deliver it help shout: "Two pennies a handful, free tasting." ”

Xingshan County because of the lack of arable land, vegetables are more expensive than those in other places, coupled with the bad weather in recent years, the decline in the output of vegetables, and the trouble of the Japanese invaders, resulting in a decrease in caravans, the number of vegetables transported from other places is also less, the final result is that the price of vegetables in Xingshan County is several times more expensive than elsewhere.

The green fresh vegetables for two pennies really attracted a lot of people to watch.

Although I haven't seen it, there are finished products that you can try.

The nurse enthusiastically handed the dumpling leaves containing the fried sweet potato vine leaves to the onlookers.

When I learned that it was an edible vegetable, it had a refreshing and delicious taste, and that it was very affordable, so some people began to buy it with the mentality of giving it a try.

In a short time, two baskets of sweet potato vine leaves were sold.

After leaving the bazaar, Xiumei followed the nurse to their current residence.

There is a shop in front and a small house in the back, not a big place, but the nurse's family of three is very satisfied.

Especially this geographical location, the choice is very good, close to the school captain's house, and the shop in front is in the lively block, and when the shop is opened, the passenger flow should not worry.

Xiumei and the three members of the Xu family spent lunch in the small mansion before returning to the school captain's mansion.

When he came back, he also brought sweet potatoes, vine leaves, and some mushroom vegetables to Wei Ruo. It was all prepared for Wei Ruo by the nurse's family, and they were afraid that Wei Ruo would not be used to eating in the school captain's mansion.

After that, Wei Ruo asked Xiumei to stay outside her door and not let anyone in.

Then I went into the space and collected the sweet potatoes grown on the two plots of land in the space.

The speed at which plants grow in the space land is not the same as that outside, and the sweet potatoes on Xiaoyang Mountain in the north of the city have just grown with sweet potato leaves, and the ones in her space are already ready to be harvested.

After harvesting two baskets of sweet potatoes, the experience value of the space has increased by a large wave, and there are only less than 100 experience points left from the 1,000 experience points required for upgrading.

The upgrade is in sight, and Wei Ruo is looking forward to the new seeds that will be updated after the upgrade.

Wei Ruo, who had collected the sweet potatoes, did not have room to transport them, and it was too suspicious to conjure up two baskets of sweet potatoes out of thin air.

Wei Ruo stored the sweet potatoes in the space after harvesting, as long as the storage environment was dry, they would not spoil in a short time.

Now it's inconvenient to transport it out of the space to sell, so let's stay in the space first and make her spare food.

In case of a disaster, there is a shortage of food and water, and there is a ready-made spare food and water in the space, which can at least ensure that you will not die of hunger.

The next day, Wei Ruo personally went to the south of the city, and with the documents given to her by Wei Mingting, she successfully got the officers and soldiers guarding the south gate to let her go.

In the south of the city, Wei Ruo chose a flat land with convenient transportation and close to the water source as her experimental field.

Let the two long-term workers sent to her by the Yun clan do the work of weeding and ploughing the ground.

They then had them carry water from a nearby river to water the land every day.

It is incomprehensible to ask people to water it every day, even though there is nothing planted on the ground.

And Wei Ruo asked the long-term workers to turn the land into a seedling field that can grow rice, it is almost the Dragon Boat Festival, and other people's rice is longer than the knee, Wei Ruo now wants the whole seedling field to come out to plant rice, which really makes people wonder if she really knows how to plant.

In this regard, Mama Zhang and the two long-term workers all had some opinions, and felt that Wei Ruo's operations were strange.

After working for two days, Mama Zhang couldn't help but mention to Wei Ruo: "Miss, why don't you change some other crops?" Although I haven't farmed for many years, when I was in my hometown, I often heard people say that there is a time for everything, and there is time to grow crops and fruits, fruits and vegetables. ”

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing, and I promise that it will be too late to sow rice when you have the land ready." Of course, Wei Ruo knew the importance of time.

It's almost June, and normal rice will definitely not be planted.

However, the rice seeds in her space belong to the varieties that can be used for both early and late rice.

The early rice will bloom next month, and the late rice will not be sown until the sixth and seventh months of the lunar calendar, and she can fully catch up.

In this way, she was able to experiment with both saline-alkali land improvement and late rice cultivation at the same time.

If successful, not only can the arable area of Xingshan County be greatly increased, but also two crops of rice can be planted a year, increasing grain production in both horizontal and vertical dimensions.

"Then what kind of straw and rice bran are there in those fruits and vegetables that the eldest lady asked us to collect before?" Mama Zhang asked again.

"Those will continue to be stored, it will take a little time, and when the time comes, I will tell you how to use them." Wei Ruodao.

Mama Zhang looked at Wei Ruo's confident face, wanted to say something, and swallowed it back.

Forget it, it's useless to say it, the eldest lady doesn't look like she can listen to persuasion.

And the eldest lady also said that it was her problem whether this matter could be done or not, and it was she who would be punished at that time, and it had nothing to do with her.
