Wei Ruo replied: "First, replant late rice seeds, when some rice fields near Fucheng had bad seedling diseases earlier, I asked them to replant late rice seeds, this late rice seeds I tried to plant when I was doing experiments in Xingshan County before, the seeds sown in early May can grow into seedlings in early June, and they can also have a bumper harvest in autumn, and the yield is not low."

"It would be great if I could replant in time, so I will talk to my husband about it and ask him to promote the planting of this late rice seed to the people." Mrs. Yuan said busily.

"But there is a premise, don't have the cold wave like the previous few days, otherwise even if it is a late rice plant, that kind of climate change will become a problem." Wei Ruo said frankly.

Although her space rice seeds are excellent enough, they are not yet to the point where they can sprout into seedlings under the cold wave.

"Now I can only ask God for my blessing." Mrs. Yuan sighed, and then asked Wei Ruo, "Sister Ruo'er said that there are two kinds, and what about the other one?"

"There is also the summer sweet potato, which can be grown in multiple seasons, spring, summer and autumn, and the summer sweet potato is generally planted after the wheat is harvested in May and June every year. Autumn planting is suitable for warm climate areas, and if the climate is stable, it can also be planted in the Taizhou area, but now that the weather conditions, it is safer for us to do spring planting and summer planting, and summer planting is the right time now."

Late rice seeds and sweet potatoes have been planted by many people since Wei Ruo arrived in Taizhou Mansion, but so far they are still small-scale.

Just take advantage of this time to let Lord Yuan and Mrs. Yuan carry out large-scale promotion and planting in the name of the government.

Wei Ruo didn't dare to say that planting her late rice seeds and sweet potatoes would definitely usher in a bumper harvest, but because of the excellent varieties and good performance in all aspects, it was no surprise that it could bring higher output value than planting existing ordinary crops.

"I've eaten sweet potatoes, they taste sweet and feel very filling. However, there are not many plants planted in Taizhou Mansion now, and if the planting can survive now, I think it is a great thing." Mrs. Yuan said.

Wei Ruo added: "These two remedies should vary from place to place, originally paddy fields with more fertile soil, planting late rice; The soil conditions were poor, and the original rice yield was not high, so it was changed to sweet potatoes. The nutrients required by the two are different, and alternating planting is more conducive to crop growth."

This method can also compensate for the lack of soil fertility and the low yield of rice cultivation to a certain extent.

Listening to Wei Ruo's description, Mrs. Yuan was in a good mood: "My husband and I have been in a heavy mood these days, until we heard Ruo'er's sister's words at this moment, and most of the fog in my heart suddenly dissipated, and my mood was much more relaxed."

"If it can really be like what Sister Ruo'er said, don't worry, I will never treat Sister Ruo'er badly." Madame Yuan assured Wei Ruo.

"Madame, you don't have to be polite, I just made an idea, and when the time comes, it will be Lord Yuan and everyone in the mansion who will be tired of running around." Wei Ruodao.

"It is within their duty to eat the king's fortune and bear the king's worries, and they should run around no matter how much they go. Although Sister Ruo'er only came up with an idea, as long as the idea is useful, it can make Taizhou Mansion produce more food, and it will be worth thousands of dollars."

Mrs. Yuan didn't think that Wei Ruo's words were just a few words, and if it really happened, its value was incalculable. ….

"Madame trusts me, so she will discuss with the adults to implement it, and I also hope that everyone can have enough to eat." Wei Ruo said frankly.

「嗯，好，若儿妹妹今日所言，我会一字不漏地跟我夫君复述，与他好好商议如何推广晚稻种和甘薯。」 Mrs. Yuan attaches great importance to what Wei Ruo said.

###

After Wei Ruo and Mrs. Yuan finished talking, Mrs. Yuan stayed behind to have dinner together, and when they left, it was already late, and the crescent moon was high in the sky.

For this reason, Mrs. Yuan specially sent an escort to escort Wei Ruo's carriage back to the school captain's mansion, and only went back to report to Mrs. Yuan when Wei Ruo entered the mansion safely.

Wei Ruo, who returned to the school captain's mansion, did not rest immediately, and was busy in front of the bookcase in his room for a while, sorting out and writing the method of composting, the follow-up topdressing of rice, the method of weeding management, the method of sweet potato planting management, and so on.

These will be used next, she wrote them out in advance, and sent them directly to Mrs. Yuan when the time came.

It was already the middle of the night after writing, and Wei Ruo fell asleep with a pillow.

Early the next morning, the Yun family called Wei Ruo over and asked her about the Seventh Prince and Mrs. Yuan looking for her yesterday, Wei Ruo only said a general idea, and did not talk about the specific things with the Yun family.

The Yun family didn't say much, although it was a good thing that her daughter could help the Seventh Prince and Mrs. Yuan, but she was also worried that her daughter's ability was insufficient, and if she made them unhappy at that time, it would also bring disaster to the Wei family.

So it's also a good thing for the daughter to directly explain her limited ability, at least she won't get into trouble.

On the second day, the government took action and began to implement the suggestion given by Wei Ruo yesterday: on the one hand, he went to buy agricultural fertilizer from others and opened up a place in the suburbs to be used as a centralized composting site; On the other hand, late rice seeds and sweet potato vines were purchased in a centralized manner and distributed to each household for planting.

At the same time, Lord Yuan also invited a well-known local family in Taizhou Mansion to come to the mansion as a guest, and it is unknown to outsiders what he said.

After that, he personally visited the counties, negotiated with the county magistrates, and assigned tasks.

Such a big move by the government has caused a lot of waves in the government.

The people who got the rice seed sweet potato cuttings were enthusiastic and responded positively.

The squires and celebrities had a lot of discussions about this, some praised the government, and some waited and doubted.

Chu Lan also quickly got the news and sent someone to inquire about what Yuan Zhengqin invited local celebrities to talk about.

In the tea room of Yusheng Tea House, his subordinates reported to Chu Lan the news that he had recently inquired about:

"Lord Yuan invited those people in the hope that those people could take the lead in planting late rice seeds, and he also mentioned to them how to fertilize in the future."

"Got it." Chu Lan waved his hand to let his subordinates retreat.

Lu Yuhong, who was sitting opposite Chu Lan, said with a smile, "It seems that Brother Chu doesn't need to take action in this matter, Yuan Zhengqin already has a way to deal with it."

"That's fine." Chu Lan was not angry.

It is the icing on the cake for him to do this, and if it can't be done, there is nothing to be angry about.

"You don't have to be angry."

"The late rice seed seems to be the first rice seed that Wei Qingruo planted on the improved field in Xingshan County. Sweet potatoes first appeared in Xingshan County in Taizhou Prefecture." Chu Lan said thoughtfully.

"Is there any connection?" Lu Yuhong asked.

"Nothing, that's all I said." Chu Lan didn't continue the topic, and instead asked Lu Yuhong, "What have you found in Anzhou Academy these days?"

"I didn't find anything, I think you must have thought too much, the Nine Emperor Princes don't exist at all, and the case of the Duke of Xu Guo being overturned may just be a coincidence." Lu Yuhong said.
