Chapter 268 The persistent Xu Xing
"Father."
"Call me father." Ying Zheng immediately corrected Ying Yinman's slip of the tongue, "Remember, from now on, your name is Zhao Manman, your eldest brother is called Zhao Su, your second brother is called Zhao Yun, and your third brother is called Zhao Lu."
"What about Brother Eighteen?"
"Zhao Hai." Ying Zheng said, "He has been very good recently, so I don't plan for him to go to the village. With Liuli's craftsmanship, he will not starve to death in the future. I am worthy of him."
"Father is wise," Ying Yinman said, "But why is my son not called Zhao Yinman, but Zhao Manman?"
"I'm worried that your name will arouse your suspicion," Ying Zheng replied. "In addition, I haven't told him about your marriage to him yet, so I'm still a little worried."
"Father, are you worried that your husband won't marry me?"
"Yes." Ying Zheng said, "The women who came together this time were Li Si's daughter, Li Yanran, and the saint of the Yin Yang family, Zou Feng.
Of the three of you, you will most likely become your husband’s wife, and the other two will be his concubines.
But there is an eventuality. If your husband doesn't like you and likes the other two, then there's nothing I can do about it. "
"Father, no, father, please rest assured, my daughter is confident that her husband will like her and marry her as his wife." Ying Yinman said very confidently.
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will help you after I see you, sir."
"No need." Ying Yinman said arrogantly, "It's just a man, I will take care of it."
"As long as you are confident." Ying Zheng smiled, "We will be there soon."
…
Zhaojiacun, in the glass house.
Xu Xing came to Qin An and said, "Sir, the cotton has been planted, can it really grow?
Didn’t you say that the temperature of cotton needs to be controlled, and is there really no problem growing it in a glass house? "
Qin An said: "Theoretically, it is possible. In fact, I have never planted it before, so I can only try it first. The temperature can be controlled in the glass room.
Everything else can be planted, especially leeks. Once this thing has grown, it can be harvested once a month as long as it is not uprooted. "
"Sir, what you mean is that after harvesting leeks once, they will grow again in a month?" Xu Xing said excitedly.
"Yes, the premise is that the roots cannot be damaged and cannot be cut too short." Qin An said, "Also let me tell you a secret, this leek has the effect of aphrodisiac and kidney.
But this is just dietary therapy, the effect is limited, but it is better than nothing.
Mr. Xu, do you think so? "
Xu Xing was a little shocked at this time. There were such vegetables in the world. Generally, vegetables need to be replanted after being harvested, but this leek can grow back every month.
The most important thing is the effect. It can also strengthen yang and nourish kidneys. I really didn't expect it.
But Xu Xing quickly came to his senses and said, "Sir, as you said, won't leeks be expensive?"
“Whether it’s expensive or not depends on how much you plant. Things are more expensive when they are scarce. If there are more, the price will be cheaper.
Besides, leeks can be harvested one crop after another, and many farmers are willing to grow them. Even if they don’t sell them for their own consumption, they can still be eaten for a year. "Qin An said,
Xu Xing nodded and said: "Sir, you are right. Things are rare and valuable. Now that leek seeds have just been found, it must be very profitable to sell them to the people now."
“That’s just for villages from ten miles and eight towns, and it’s not expensive for us. However, our first goal now is to save seeds, not to eat them.
So Mr. Xu Xing, the next task will be handed over to you. You will be responsible for all the vegetable cultivation in this glass house.
In addition, this is a cotton seedling you found from Hushan Mountain. You must take good care of it. If other fruits and vegetables are gone, at most you should not eat them. You can eat other things.
This cotton is different. It can be used to weave cloth. It can also be used to make cotton sweaters and cotton trousers, as well as cotton-padded jackets. Wearing these three items together with a woolen sweater in winter will basically prevent you from getting cold. .
It can also be used to make quilts. Covered with quilts in winter, it is quite warm.
Therefore, cotton is very important. If in ancient times, especially in the Qin Dynasty, there were cotton-padded jackets made of cotton, basically no one would freeze to death. "
"Sir, this cotton is so important, I will definitely pay close attention to it." Xu Xing said solemnly,
He never thought that a plant he had never seen before would be so important.
This time I came back from Hushan and found many unknown plants. As for the seeds, I couldn't find any.
And among so many plants, Qin An didn't know what most of them were.
But leeks and cotton were found among them.
Leek recognized it at a glance. As for Cotton, it was because he had learned this kind of knowledge, so he was deeply impressed.
"Mr. Xu," Qin An said, "This glass house is suitable for growing some vegetables. Except for the cotton plant, the rest are all vegetables.
Such as pumpkin, cucumber, peanuts, cabbage, green vegetables and other vegetables. "
"Don't worry, I can do it. This is my specialty. If I can't even grow these things well, then I don't have to be a farmer." Xu Xing said confidently.
Qin An smiled and said: "I believe you. But you should always pay attention to the temperature of the glass room. If it is too high, use less biogas. If it is too cold, you can add more firewood."
"Please don't worry, sir. From today on, I will live in the glass house. I will keep an eye on all the vegetables in the glass house and record the growth of all the vegetables in the glass house every day until they mature."
"Just observe it every day. You don't need to live in a glass house." Qin An said.
"Yes." Xu Xing said persistently, "I must live in a glass house. Watching the vegetables in the glass house grow little by little every day, I feel very happy inside.
My whole life feels very fulfilling. "
"But you've been in the glass room all the time. I'm afraid something will happen to you." Qin An said worriedly.
"Sir, I appreciate your kindness." Xu Xing refused, "But I will not leave the glass room."
Qin An looked at the persistent Xu Xing and was really worried that something would happen if Xu Xing stayed in the glass house, so he said: "Mr. Xu Xing, the glass house cannot be inhabited, and every piece of land here must be fully utilized.
If you really want to observe every day, then build a few houses in the glass house, where you and the rest of the farm family will live, in addition to paying regular attention to the fields.
Being here every day, you can closely observe everything in the glass house, and at the same time study other seeds and cultivate excellent seeds.
The other thing is to cultivate high-quality rice, which is what your farmers have to do. "
"Yes, you are right, our farm family still has a lot to do. Thank you sir for reminding me," Xu Xing said.
Some people died, but not completely...
