"The crop we just planted is called potatoes." Qin Yu said, "This thing is common outside, it is an extremely common agricultural product, and there is a large area of cultivation in the north. ”

Is there a large area of cultivation in the north? Xu Da was skeptical when he heard this, I just came back from the Northern Expedition, and I haven't seen the northerners planting or eating them, is it that I experienced a fake Northern Expedition?

What looks like the Northern Expedition is actually the Southern Expedition?

"Mr. Qin, how to take care of this potato after planting, how to top dress, are you afraid of drought, and is it squeamish? How long do we have to wait for the harvest and what is the harvest? Xu Da asked. Lu Dazhuang also looked at Qin Yu, and the question Xu Da asked was exactly what he wanted to ask.

"Potatoes are not a delicate crop at all, even if you leave it in the corner and do nothing, it can take root and sprout." Qin Yu said, "Therefore, daily care is basically not needed, it is a very 'cheap' crop, it is easy to grow vigorously and the yield is extremely high." As for top dressing, just apply a little farm manure to it every month. ”

A very cheap crop? Lu Dazhuang and Xu Da listened and nodded in satisfaction. Such crops are the best, do not die easily, and are very suitable for farmers to grow. If it's too squeamish, it's only suitable for Mrs. Kuo to take back as an ornamental plant.

"As for the yield, the average yield of potatoes per mu is about 5,000 catties." Qin Yu said, "Like the vegetable field in front of us, after harvesting, it is estimated that the yield will be about 800 catties, and it only takes half a year to harvest." ”

"And the nutritional value of potatoes is very high, and I am very hungry for a day." Qin Yu said.

The yield per mu is 5,000 catties, which is 300 stones!?

After half a year, this small vegetable field can harvest 60 stones!?

Lu Dazhuang and Xu Da were stunned after hearing this, that is to say, after half a year, Lu Dazhuang's family can achieve the goal of not starving with only this small vegetable plot and there is still surplus food!

What kind of fairy crop is this!

"Mr. Qin, you shouldn't be deceiving me, an honest peasant, right?" Lu Dazhuang's voice trembled, "I have never heard of a crop with a yield of three hundred stones per mu, and I dare not dream of it." ”

"Dad, how can you doubt what the gentleman said?" Before Qin Yu could answer Lu Qingqian, he said, "Mr. is so kind, can you lie to us, and there is no need to lie to us." ”

"What the girl said is reasonable," Lu Dazhuang nodded, "With Mr.'s character, he will never lie to us." It's just, it's just...... The yield that Mr. said was really unbelievable. "You must know that the previous grain yield in Lujia Village was only three buckets of sorghum per mu, which was a bucket rather than a stone, and the yield of three hundred stones was a thousand times higher than that of three buckets.

"That's right, the yield of 300 stones per mu is really scary." Xu Dadao, "I am also a farmer who has grown grain for half my life, and I have never heard of any crop in the world with such a high yield." ”

"If that's the case, this potato is simply a crop from the sky, brought down from the sky by Mr. Qin."

"Sir, is it an immortal?" Lu Dazhuang turned his head and looked at Qin Yu suspiciously.

Potatoes brought down from the sky crops, and the gods also grow food? Hearing the conversation between several people, Qin Yu smiled, and did not refute, he liked their appearance that he had never seen the world.

"Okay, it's all done, just wait for the results in half a year." Qin Yu patted the dirt on his hands, "Xu Da, let's go back first." Big strong brother, although potatoes do not need special care, it is still necessary to prevent damage by wild boars and hares. ”

To Xu Dadao: "We are busy today, and we have to prepare teaching aids for students and so on." ”

In the past, he taught in remote mountain villages, and the textbooks, school bags, and learning utensils used by students, including the chalk used by teachers, were donated by well-wishers and used immediately. But this time it was different, Lujia Village was completely closed, and everything needed to be prepared by himself.

And it's replaced with something very old.

It's like surviving in the wild, you can't use a lighter to ignite the fire, and you have to drill wood to make fire.

All of this is a new challenge for him.

After walking for a while, he turned his head and said to Lu Dazhuang: "Brother Dazhuang, I let your family plant potatoes, all for the sake of taking care of me in the past few days. If the potatoes planted in the future are bumper and your family can have enough to eat, it is all due to her alone. So at that time, if she wants to go to school again, you can't stop her. "A well-intentioned moral kidnapping was carried out on him.

"Everything is up to the gentleman." Lu Dazhuang kept nodding.

……

"Have you heard? Mr. Qin went to Da Zhuang's house just now, and wanted Da Zhuang to send his daughter Qingqian to school. "At the entrance of the village, a few rural women were washing their clothes by the stream, first placing their clothes on smooth stones and then tapping them lightly with mallets. The crowd chatted as they pounded their clothes, and it was a woman in her thirties.

She is the daughter-in-law of villager Lu Dashan, and she has already given birth to five children in her thirties.

A remote mountain village that can't hide any secrets.

Qin Yu's trip to Da Zhuang's house was already known to them.

"Daughter-in-law Dashan, how did you know about this?" A young woman next to her asked. She is about seventeen or eighteen years old, very beautiful, and is the daughter-in-law of villager Lu Dahong.

At the age of five, she married into Lujia Village as a child daughter-in-law, and when she was eleven years old, her husband died in an accident because of hunting in the mountains. Now the widow lives at home to take care of her elderly mother-in-law, a widow, and the village is said to be still a yellow flower.

Because she has always kept festivals for her husband, she grew up in Lujia Village since she was a child, and she was recognized by the villagers and regarded her as her own. I believe that when she reaches the age of eighty, the clan will set up a chastity archway for her.

"I overheard it just outside Da Zhuang's house." Dashan daughter-in-law said. Because rural women have no entertainment and are not mentally satisfied, they like to inquire about some gossip and gossip news.

"Mr. Qin wants Lu Qingqian to go to school?" The crowd was shocked when they heard this, and the daughter-in-law of villager Lu Daqing said, "The girl has never studied since ancient times, Mr. Qin wants to break the rules that have been handed down for thousands of years?" Why did he do it? ”

"Why? It's not because I fell in love with that girl. The daughter-in-law said, "I heard that when Mr. Qin was injured, the girl from the Da Zhuang family took care of him on the mountain for more than ten days. In order to repay his kindness, Mr. Qin wanted to accept her as a personal maid. ”

"That girl is careful and gentle, and she looks very good, Mr. Qin wants her to be a maid, which is also reasonable." Xiaoxiao, a young pretty widow, said, "And Qingqian is already twelve this year, so she can be a maid in a big family." Mr. Qin is a scholar, knowledgeable, and kind. can see the shallow, it is her creation. ”
