Farming and Reclaiming Wasteland, I Pampered Hou Ye In Ancient Times Chapter 355

   Chapter 355 The first batch of potatoes is ripe

   All the people working in the fields, in the fields, and on the city walls raised their heads in shock, and then felt that their eyes were too presumptuous, and quickly lowered them again.

   But they were all shocked in their hearts, the Chu family army who had been with Chu Lixuan for many years, and his family were even more shocked.

  Wei Dabin was standing on the unbuilt city wall, watching their grandfather and his wife joking while ordering beans, her smile was so dazzling.

   He has followed Chu Lixuan for more than seven years, and he has never seen him smile even after winning battles before.

   Watching the scene of Harmony in the Field, Wei Dabin also felt good, but it was not very good. Anyway, it was a mixed taste, and there was a trace of regret in the depths of his eyes.

   All that was left was to be happy for their father and wife. He smiled and told his subordinates to pay special attention to the quality of their work.

   The Beiyue Kingdom has been settled for the time being, but it is hard to say if there will be any changes in the future. If the Nanman Kingdom breaks the Dongchen Kingdom again.

   Then, Xichu and Beiyue will definitely be ready to make a move, wanting to take the opportunity to rob and attack and divide the possibility of Dongchen together.

   Although they were all trained to be strong generals under Master Chu, they were not enough in the end.

  Many people use the wheel to fight, and dragging will exhaust the martial arts masters.

  Wei Dabin thought that his grandfather, parents, and clansmen were all on the way, and he was full of energy.

  The castle they built has an automatic defense function, and no matter how bad it is, it can ensure the safety of everyone in the castle.

  The people of Dongchen, it depends on whether God will give them a way to live! They will try their best to protect the people, but also within the scope of their strength.

   "You all speed up for me, build the city wall as soon as possible, and everyone will live a stable and comfortable life in the future."

   "Don't worry! General, we will definitely build the city wall and house within two months."

   "Yeah! The Chu Mansion is about to be completed, and the construction of the General's Mansion has already begun, so you can rest assured!"

   "All of our houses will be built before the rice is heading, and we will harvest the rice together."

  The soldiers talked hotly looking forward to the future, but their subordinates were not slow, because Master Chu said that they could all contact their families.

   As long as they have relatives, they can relocate and live there. They have already written letters back, but they don't know where their relatives have fled to!

When    was so busy, Master Chu even set up 2,000 people to go out to find their relatives.

   How could they not repay Master Chu well, how could they not work at ease!

  Especially the soldiers on the city wall, looking at the potatoes that were about to ripen, excited for a while. Master Chu said that they would dig them out at the end of the month and take them to exchange horses with the North Vietnamese.

   This is the first batch of food that they have personally cultivated and planted!

  Happy time always goes by so fast, in the busyness of everyone, the first batch of potatoes has ushered in the ripening period.

  The earliest potatoes that were planted bloomed in February and are now mature, and the potatoes that were planted in the mountains and fields behind are also blooming.

   The flowers are terminal in corymbs, and later become lateral. The color of the flowers is white or blue-purple, the calyx is bell-shaped, the outside is sparsely pubescent, with five lobes, and the lobes are lanceolate.

  The corolla is radial, the ovary is oval, the stigma is head-shaped, and the white is mixed with purple, which is really beautiful.

  The soldiers on the city wall saw that the fruits dug up by the soldiers who were digging potatoes were in the shape of stems.

  The shape is oblate, hairless or sparsely pubescent, and the color of the potato skin is white, yellow, pink, red, purple, light yellow, and other colors.

  The children ordered beans for a few days, and then followed Jiang Xinyan to pick potatoes. They picked a handful of potatoes dug up by the adults and put them in the baskets one by one.

  There are a lot of bamboos on the mountain here, and they were woven into many baskets during the slack season, which are just perfect for storing potatoes.

  Jiang Xinyan also taught the children to divide labor and cooperate, and a few children picked potatoes behind the adults.

   There will be a few specially delivered to the baskets, and some will be specially brought to the baskets, and they can all take turns to work.

  Whether it is an adult or a child, seeing the potatoes piled up in the mountains, with the smell of soil, their faces are full of smiles.

  Because they reclaimed a lot of weeds and roots, Jiang Xinyan ordered them to be burned into ashes for fertilizer, so the potato plants bear more plump and rich fruits.

   "Wow! This potato I picked is super big!" Cheng Xiande shouted loudly.

   "Remember, put the big ones in a basket, the medium ones together, and the smallest ones together."

   Jiang Xinyan excitedly arranged the arrangement loudly. She was the happiest. The people they had worked so hard to support finally paid off.

   "Understood, sister-in-law has said it three times." Chu Lixiang said with a smile.

   "Okay, Brother Xiang, you're making fun of me, I'm not worried! Big ones will definitely sell for a good price."

   "Hahaha..." Everyone also laughed.

   Mrs. Cheng and the two masters are supervising, so that the children do not put the wrong baskets, and the price of large potatoes is higher.

   The men who were digging potatoes in front were even more careful, for fear that a **** would damage the potatoes.

   "Don't worry, we will eat what we have dug up, and it will have no effect." Jiang Xinyan encouraged them loudly.

  The last word is to move fast, so that the fruits of labor will be more. The soldiers have been trained and have kung fu.

   They are quick and quick, and they don't make fun of those cautious guys, after all, everyone wants to do better.

   The whole people worked for a few days, and the children began to go back to school. Several teachers were worried that the children's homework would be left behind.

  I don't know! After a few days of ordering beans and picking potatoes, everyone realized a lot of truth, and coming back to class would be more effective with less effort.

   They understood as soon as the Master talked about it. Not only could they remember it quickly, but they could also draw inferences from one case, which was simply much stronger than before.

   Master Yang happily said to Master Wang, "It turns out that Madam Chu is so right. Children really need a combination of work and rest, in order to be more conducive to learning."

   "Yeah! I didn't expect Mrs. Chu's idea to have so many benefits. We have grown more beans this year, and we didn't delay studying."

   "Mrs. Chu said that from now on, we will have five days of school, and we will have two more days off for the children to work. This will not only allow you to work more, but also have an effect on learning."

  The masters are happy, and so are the students. They are more interested in learning and are not tired of reading at all.

  The first day of April is the day to trade food. Three days in advance, Cheng Sanshu and Chu Liuer are the main ones, and the two uncles of the Yang family and the two uncles of the Song family work together.

   and a thousand carefully selected people, with 100,000 shi of potatoes and 50,000 shi of rice, headed to Dahe Town, Bianguan, for trading.
