Chapter 248: It can't be a goddess, right?
To be honest, General Xie was still wondering if this incident would just be a farce caused by a measurement error during the long journey? Of course, deep down in his heart, he still vaguely wanted to believe that this data was true, after all, the people of the world had suffered from hunger for a long time. Although he always likes to be idle and scold the old emperor openly and secretly. But there are some things that he can't put on the emperor's head, such as the grain production problem, since ancient times, the grain output has been so much, and occasionally there is a bumper harvest in a year, which must be considered as a blessing from God.
But now Ning Ning has only planted a small piece of sweetness, but the harvest of grain is more than the total amount of grain produced by a piece of good fertile land! This is simply something that only happens in dreams, how can he take it seriously? But who in this world doesn't want this to be a real thing?
Therefore, General Xie maintained an expressionless face until the experimental field, so that the people around him who wanted to say hello to him couldn't help but retreat, isn't it a good thing to have a bumper grain harvest? Why doesn't the general seem to be too happy?
It wasn't until he really saw the grain output and the high stacks of grain that General Xie finally showed a big smile.
The experienced grain officer was estimating the weight of these grains at the moment, and when he saw that General Xie's already red face was already full of redness, there were two more blushes, which made a happy person at a loss, but he still had the most basic qualities. He rushed in front of the general, and he didn't even have time to dodge the majestic war horse under the general's crotch.
It was General Xie who tightened the reins in time and saved his life. I wanted to scold a few words, but seeing that the other party was so happy, I swallowed back the reprimand that came to my mouth.
"General! General, look at these harvested grains! Look at these rices, how plump! I've never seen better food in my life, it's a gift from heaven! It's a miracle, it's a miracle! ”
It's just that the villagers of Qingshui Village who heard this were not very happy, and they looked at the happy and helpless grain official, and the expression on their faces was a little dangerous.
"What gift from heaven?! This is clearly the result of Ning Ning's efforts! ”
"That's it! These days, I have seen with my own eyes that Ning Ning, such a delicate little person, has to catch insects, weeds and fertilizer by himself, and his little face is tanned, but what kind of miracle do you say? If you say a gift from Heaven now, see if Heaven will send you a gift! ”
"I think he's happy and stupid, everyone in Qingshui Village knows that this is clearly the result of Ning Ning's efforts. But don't blame him. The young man didn't seem to have experienced much, so he was overjoyed to see the grain. ”
“……”
The grain officer, who was flushed with excitement, somehow suddenly wasn't so happy. Also, can you please not discuss me in front of me? Can I hear it? I'm not deaf!
But it was also thanks to the complaints of these villagers that the grain officer realized his mistake. Because he also witnessed how these grains grew little by little, how could he ignore the most important project when it was time to harvest? That's not right.
He would have realized his mistake and hung his head listlessly. But the next moment, he was healed by the immature voice around him.
"Uncle Xie, I deliberately left a little grain that I didn't harvest, do you want to collect it together?"
A layer of light suddenly flashed in General Xie's eyes, and he twisted his head in disguise, not wanting Ning Ning to see his useless appearance. But he still couldn't suppress the desire to harvest with his own hands, and followed Ning Ning over happily. As a result, when he saw the rice growing in the ground, he was taken aback!
General Xie is not the kind of person who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains, he has also worked in the field with his soldiers, so he also knows what the rice should look like, no matter what it originally looked like, but at least it will not grow like a small tree like now, yes, it is the first time he knows that the rice can grow so branched, it is like a forked sapling, but unlike those ordinary saplings, the branches of this rice are full of heavy ears of rice!
What's even more rare is that the whole of this rice is glowing with a trace of colorful glow, which is not an illusion, but the kind that can really be seen. Otherwise, the grain officer just now would not have been happy to be like that, and called it a miracle, and now it really looks like a miracle from God.
But General Xie knew very well that everything in front of him was not given by God, but brought by this little girl who was not even waist-high next to him, and she was a miracle given by God.
If the rice grown from those good seeds planted by Ning Ning is really like this one, then it is no wonder that so much grain can be harvested.
And Ning Ning, who saw his reaction, suddenly couldn't help laughing, to be honest, she had already anticipated this situation when she invited the general, and I have to say that she also had a little idea of wanting to see the excitement.
General Xie is not a fool, after noticing this, not only did he not feel angry, but he also laughed with Ning Ning, he was really happy, because he had been worried about the food problem for so many years, but he didn't expect that it could really be solved now, he was both happy and unbelievable in his heart.
But gradually it turned into a kind of total gratitude.
"Ning Ning, I really appreciate everything you do. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't dare to imagine what the current Northern Xinjiang would be like. ”
"Why did Uncle Xie suddenly become agitated? I'm not used to it. ”
Ning Ning couldn't help but shrug her shoulders, feeling that she was being sensationalized.
But the most important thing now is not to sensationalize and move, but to harvest this last rice as soon as possible. Otherwise, these people around them would not leave, probably because they had never seen such strange food before.
After Ning Ning's reminder, General Xie endured the excitement in his heart and slowly cut the last rice.
At this time, General Xie suddenly felt that he was not only carrying a piece of rice in his hands, but also carrying the future of the entire Dali. And this future was created by this little girl next to her.
To tell the truth, at this moment, General Xie really thought that he had seen the legendary goddess who rescued the suffering. In other words, Ning Ning wouldn't really be a fairy in the sky who came down to save them, right?
Not to mention, it's really possible.
