Chapter Twenty-Six: Finding Wild Rice
Ji Ping'an has always kept one thing in mind in his heart, the world puts food first and people are people-oriented.
This is the historical experience that many people have learned from their ancestors, and he naturally refuses to slack off in the slightest.
He knows very well in his heart that as long as he has food, he will have confidence to do anything.
Food, clothing, shelter and transportation, all things are crucial and interconnected, and they must not be dismantled casually.
If there is not enough food, no matter how much money there is, there is no meaning, and endless wealth is nothing more than a gorgeous empty shell under the name of no food.
Only food can give people the greatest sense of security and satisfaction.
Ji Ping'an is very aware of this truth, so he is so attentive to food production.
It's just that now in Yunguo, there is no rice yet, and the main food crops are millet and wheat bran.
The grain seeds that Ji Ping'an brought from the government were the seeds of millet.
He wants to try to breed these millet seeds into excellent varieties to increase production.
At the same time, he had other plans in mind.
Millet and rice are completely different, and if he wants to grow rice, he now has to find a way to find it in the wild.
In the earliest days, rice was wild, only noticed in the later stages, and then cultivated from generation to generation.
In the end, there was the kind of rice that Ji Ping'an ate in his previous life.
No matter what, Ji Ping'an still tried to use the power in his hands to find rice.
After he had a plan in mind, he drew a rough picture of the wild rice he could think of in his memory.
After drawing these things, after drawing everything, Ji Ping'an found Zhang Manping.
"Uncle Ping, you take this thing and take a good look at it, and distribute it to the people who work under you."
Ji Ping'an handed things over to Zhang Manping's hands.
Zhang Manping looked at the strange plants drawn on the paper, he couldn't help but have some differences, and asked: "What is this, it looks like some weeds." ”
Zhang Manping was even more curious when he spoke, he didn't understand why Ji Ping'an was interested in weeds?
Ji Ping'an's face showed a faint smile at this time.
His thoughtful voice fell in Zhang Manping's ears.
"Uncle Ping, this thing is not a weed, this is a very important thing I am looking for."
When Zhang Manping heard him say this, he couldn't help but be even more curious, took the piece of paper in his hand carefully, and read it carefully.
He looked at it several times, but he couldn't see anything special in the paper.
Zhang Manping didn't know what medicine was sold in Ji Ping'an's gourd?
But recently, he has been by Ji Ping'an's side to help Ji Ping'an do things.
So he also knows very well what kind of ability Ji Ping'an has now.
Ji Ping'an asked him to do these things, which shows that this matter is indeed very important to him.
Zhang Manping didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and he started to prepare as soon as possible.
"Uncle Ping must tell those workers not to come to me as soon as they find the plants painted on it."
When Ji Ping'an was about to leave Zhang Manping, he directly stopped Zhang Manping and told the other party.
"Don't worry, I won't go wrong."
Zhang Manping's heart was very happy, and he turned around and went straight back to the mountain.
The workers on the hill are hard at work.
Zhang Manping immediately gathered the workers, and he handed over the paintings to all the workers who participated in the reclamation.
At the same time, he also told Ji Ping'an what he said in front of everyone.
After the workers carefully examined the plants on the painting, they were curious.
But they didn't say much, and it was very easy for them to keep an eye on it after work.
Zhang Manping helped him arrange it here.
Ji Ping'an naturally didn't have the slightest concern.
He went to the casino and waited for the county yamen to deliver the seeds of funds and food.
He had already negotiated with the county magistrate yesterday very clearly.
The county magistrate knew what was going on with the current situation, and he had promised to take out the money that should be paid by their yamen.
By the time he arrived at the casino, the people in the yamen had already delivered money and grain seeds.
The moment Jian Rui saw Ji Ping'an, a shocked look appeared on her face, and she asked incredulously, "How did you kid do it, to be able to pull teeth from the tiger mouth of the county master." ”
Jian Rui and the county master have been dealing with each other for more than a day or two, and they are a smiling tiger.
Smile on the surface, and there will not be much objection to anything.
But in fact, it is a different set behind the scenes, and they often prevaricate for various reasons, and even squeeze their casinos.
The county master has a lot of money in his hands, and Ji Ping'an, the person who can let him take it out, is currently the first.
Ji Ping'an's face showed a faint smile, and he said slowly: "What method can be used, just reason with him, and if the reason is explained, he will naturally understand." ”
After he finished speaking, he directly took back the seeds on the money, and if he wanted to cultivate high-quality millet, it would take a certain amount of time.
Jian Rui watched him leave, and couldn't help but admire him a little.
Ji Ping'an brought her more and more shocks, and she now feels that Ji Ping'an is becoming more and more mysterious than she imagined.
Ji Ping'an had just returned home with the food, and he was ready to start the work above.
Zhang Manping ran to him with an excited face, panting heavily.
"Found it, found it, we found what you were looking for."
Ji Ping'an's face showed a happy look, he didn't expect that the wild rice would be found.
He did so much because he wanted to give it a try, and if he could find wild rice and breed it himself, he would definitely be able to breed a good variety.
If you can't find it, it's not too much of a problem, after all, he has millet seeds in his hands.
As long as it is cultivated slowly, the yield of millet will also increase.
"Great, you can take me now."
Ji Ping'an didn't say much, and followed Zhang Manping as soon as possible, and arrived at the place where they found wild rice.
He felt even more ecstatic after that.
Because Zhang Manping, they found a lot of wild rice, and all of them were very good.
Ji Ping'an knew that this was also due to the fact that in the three hundred years since the founding of Yunguo, there has been no disaster to destroy the country and cause evil prostitution everywhere.
Therefore, these wild rice can grow well in the wild without any disturbance.
Ji Ping'an looked at the situation in front of him, and his face showed an increasingly excited look.
He was the first to call in, and workers built a fence around it to protect the wild rice.
