Chapter 365 unlocks perennial rice species
Xiao Beidao: "Miss Xiumei, not everyone is like you and the eldest lady. Some people only care about themselves. It doesn't matter whether these refugees can survive. The most important thing is whether he can make achievements."
Xiumei was so angry that she wanted to say a lot of curse words, but she swallowed them all in the end.
That person is the sixth prince, and for ordinary people like them, he is a existence as tall as the sky.
So what if you're mad at him? What can be changed? Not to mention her, even her young lady has nothing to do with these nobles.
Seeing Xiumei like this, Xiao Bei felt distressed, and wanted to say something to comfort her, but she was stupid and didn't know what to say, so in the end she could only watch.
Wei Jin also looked at Wei Ruo, because he couldn't see her face because of the cover of the human skin mask, but there was some coldness in her eyes.
After a while, the coldness gradually faded away.
"Let's go." Wei Ruo said.
Instead of looking at the refugees who were forced to open up wasteland, Wei Ruo clamped the horse's belly with his legs and sped up a little.
Wei Jin also followed, staring at her with deep eyes.
Although Wei Jinyi didn't say anything, but Wei Ruo knew that her second brother was concerned about her, so she turned to explain to him: "Second brother, I'm fine, it's true that I'm a little annoyed, but I also know that some things are my fault. I won't think too much about what I can't reach, what I shouldn't think about, and I won't do things that add trouble to myself."
"Yes." Wei Jin also responded.
She has always been like this, compassionate, but also very calm, knowing what she can and cannot do.
After the episode, the four of Wei Ruo walked for another incense stick, and arrived at the place that Wei Ruo had marked last nightFengting Mountain.
The mountain is not high above sea level, but the mountain is huge and majestic, stretching for several miles from west to northeast.
"Miss, what you want to buy is not the mountain in front of you?" Xiumei looked surprised.
"Including all the farmland at the foot of this mountain." Wei Ruo said.
Hearing this, Xiaobei's eyes widened. How much would it cost?
Although the land is cheaper due to the current situation, such a large piece of land must still require a lot of money.
Xiumei was not surprised that their lady wanted to buy so many fields, because their lady had recently sold grain to the military camp for a lot of money. In addition, several of their businesses were very profitable, and they had saved a lot of money this year. .
But Xiumei was surprised that their lady wanted to buy the mountain in front of her: "What do you plan to plant on this mountain?"
"Tea, rice and fruit trees. The mountains are not all rugged. A lot of relatively flat land can be reclaimed, and rice will be planted on that part. Tea trees can be planted on the rest of the land, and tea trees can be planted on the rest of the land. Plant some suitable fruit trees." Wei Ruo replied.
Tea trees and fruit trees take a long time to plant, especially fruit trees, which take a very long time from planting to fruiting.
So Wei Ruo didn't consider planting tea and fruit trees before, but now that Wei Ruo has accumulated a lot, it's time to make some long-term investments.
However, crops that can fill the stomach are still Wei Ruo's first choice, and Wei Ruo will consider other types of crops only on land where it is not convenient to grow rice.
Xiaobei couldn't help but said: "Miss, it's very laborious to plant this rice on the mountain."
Wei Ruodao: "Well, it's really laborious, so I plan to plant perennial rice, which can save a lot of manpower."
"Perennial rice?" It was the first time Xiaobei heard that rice can grow perennial.
"Yes, perennial rice can be harvested continuously for at least five years after one planting, and during these five years, the yield of rice will basically not decrease significantly. As long as the climatic conditions are ensured for the first year of growth of such rice, it will be harvested later. In a few years, because the root system has grown well, the ability to deal with natural disasters will be greatly improved, and there is no need for additional seedling raising and transplanting." Wei Ruo explained.
"There is such a powerful rice variety in this world?" Xiaobei asked with a look of surprise.
Then he turned his head to look at his young master. His young master is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. I dont know if he has heard of this kind of rice.
Wei Jin also said, "It's also the first time I've heard that rice can grow perennial."
Wei Ruo explained: "This is only discovered recently, so I plan to plant it to try. If it succeeds, it will naturally be the best. If it fails, I will admit it."
Said it was discovered recently, but it was actually unlocked after her space was just upgraded.
Recently, the sweet potatoes began to be harvested, so her space experience points accumulated to 8,000, and she was promoted to level 6.
And the newly unlocked seeds for upgrading are perennial rice.
After learning about the attributes of the new seeds, Wei Ruo was very happy. Her space is really very kind, and all the seeds unlocked in the early stage are the seeds that can come in handy.
That's why she couldn't wait to come to the provincial capital to buy new fields.
"Where did Ruoer find such a novel rice seed?" Wei Jin also asked.
Wei Ruo already had an explanation for this: "There are various kinds of rice seeds in nature, even the rice planted in our own fields will undergo some changes during the growth process. Changes are random, good and bad. This is just like people, tall and short, fat and thin, smart and not smart."
Wei Ruo continued: "We can artificially pollinate the flowers of rice plants with different excellent characteristics, so that the rice seeds produced by them have their own advantages. After several generations of breeding, screening and optimization, it is possible to obtain a kind of It is a rice variety with multiple advantages at the same time.
The principle is true, but it actually takes a lot of time and energy.
And if Wei Ruo has the plug-in of space, he can directly obtain seeds with super excellent characteristics without this process, saving countless manpower, material resources and time costs.
"Ruo'er is really smart." Wei Jin also said.
"There is also a certain element of luck." Wei Ruodao, "But the second brother can't tell outsiders about this. If the planting succeeds later, he will say that I got the seeds from other places, not to mention that I discovered them."
"Okay." Wei Jin also agreed.
Then Wei Ruo and the others walked along Fengting Mountain for a while to observe the surrounding situation.
After finding a suitable path up the mountain, several people started to walk up the mountain.
The mountain is not steep. You can ride a horse on the first part of the mountain, and you dont need to get off the horse until the middle and later stages.
The four of them were leading their horses, when there was a rustling sound from the lush grass on both sides of the road.
Wei Jinyi didn't need to remind him this time, the movement was so obvious that even Wei Ruo heard it.
Immediately afterwards, a group of ragged and unkempt men rushed out with sticks and stones, and surrounded Wei Ruo and the others...
