In the new village halfway up the mountain, there are green crops all over the mountains and fields, and some diligent villagers even left the front and back of their houses untouched.
Uncle Fan saw that these newly grown crops were different from the previous ones. Even though he had been living in the capital for so many years and read so many books by sages, and was considered well-informed, he didn't know what it was.
"Uncle, how should we take care of our crops? The master of the Imperial College once said that when planting crops, we must pull out weeds and fertilize everything."
"The crops grown in this way can be fruitful, but I see that these crops only have vines and leaves. They have finally bloomed and there are no fruits. Is there something we haven't taken good care of?"
Fan Yuanxiu is not the only one who has such doubts. Many villagers have the same doubts.
Uncle Fan sighed repeatedly, his eyebrows twisted together, feeling extremely worried.
"I don't know what's going on. Even our old slaves from the Fan family have never seen this kind of crops. We scholars don't pay much attention to farming and know very little about it."
"Yuanxiu! Go and borrow a carriage from Uncle Zhan quickly. Let's hitch the carriage and go to the city to ask the little girl. While there are still few flowers blooming, let's see if there is any way to save her."
Zhan Qingyue listened to Uncle Fan and Fan Yuanxiu telling everything about what happened in the crop field, and the smile on her face never fell.
"Drink tea, drink tea. It's a rare trip to the city for you to try my herbal hoof flower soup. How about it?"
When Uncle Fan and Fan Yuanxiu saw this, they looked at each other helplessly. They were so anxious that they could still drink tea and hoof flower soup so calmly.
"Little girl, could it be that those crops have been spoiled by our supply?"
Uncle Fan asked tentatively, his face became more anxious, he was restless, and he put back the tea cup he had picked up.
"Uncle Fan, brothers from the Fan family, I thought you would have known about it a long time ago since you have been raising crops for so long. The most commonly grown crops in our village are sweet potatoes and corn."
Zhan Qingyue patiently explained the growth habits, growth status, and maintenance of sweet potatoes and corn in detail.
The diligent and studious Fan Yuanxiu even asked Brother Zhan for pen and paper to write down everything Zhan Qingyue said seriously.
"I accidentally got all this food from the bandits' den before. I heard from the bandits that one corn can grow a cob of corn, and half a sweet potato can grow a nest of sweet potatoes. If you take good care of it, There are more than ten in one nest."
"Both of these crops are very high-yielding. Once planted this season, people in the village will not be hungry this winter."
Both Fan Bo and Fan Yuanxiu's eyes lit up.
Uncle Fan even more so, the hand holding the tea cup began to tremble, his inner excitement was beyond words.
"Yuanxiu, please inform me when you get back. The whole village will serve me snacks and take good care of the crops in the fields."
Zhan Qingyue was very pleased to see Uncle Fan like this. It was quite reassuring to leave some matters in the village to him.
"Uncle Fan, I have a method for fertilizing. You can take it back and try it. Otherwise, how can the livestock in our village produce so much fertilizer?"
Uncle Fan and Fan Yuanxiu became even more excited, and the smiles on their faces almost reached their ears.
This is a way to increase crop yields!
Fan Yuanxiu suppressed the excitement in his heart and recorded the entire process without missing a word.
The two of them returned to the village and without any delay, they immediately called for help and started fertilizing.
The villagers of Changfu Village watched the new village being busy, and it didn't take long for them to know that they were fertilizing.
Wang Fugui's eyes lit up and he began to make calculations in his mind.
Retting! If there is a method of retting, not to mention the crops that have been planted this season, it will be useful even when wheat is planted in autumn and winter.
"Wang San, ask two smarter men to go into the city with me."
Zhan Qingyue looked at Wang Fugui and others who came to ask for advice with a full face.
"Do you really want to learn this method of retting fertilizer?"
Several people nodded.
Wang Fugui said with a shy smile: "Little girl, we are all farmers, and farmers don't all hope for more harvests in the fields so that the family will not go hungry."
"Didn't I hear that you know how to fertilize? That's why a few of us shamelessly came here to ask for advice. Don't worry, after we learn it, we will spread the word to other people in the village that they will never hide anything."
Zhan Qingyue frowned slightly, thinking secretly for a moment, and finally taught these people the method.
If a few people could starve to death because of a method, it would be a good deal.
Unexpectedly, Wang Fugui and others returned to Changfu Village with Fang Zi, and immediately caused an uproar in the village.
"Wang Fugui! Look what bullshit method you learned from that woman! Mix plant ash with urine and add some green leaves to make it fertilizer?"
Li Zhongbi cursed, but he would never forget that his brother fell into the hands of that woman and made Wang Fugui the village chief. Otherwise, there would be no room for the Wang family to speak in the entire Changfu Village.
"Li Zhongqian, don't deceive people here. Whether this fertilizer works or not, there is no loss. If it works, everyone will be happy. If it doesn't, it will just be a waste of a few days of hard work!"
Wang Fugui's nose was almost broken with anger.
He kindly asked every family in the village to send someone to learn how to fertilize, but he didn't know that the Li family was so good.
"Wang Fugui, don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. What kind of fertilizer molecules are you bringing back? Are you willing to destroy everyone's land? Don't you know how vicious that woman is? ?"
Wang Fugui's face turned green. He didn't expect the Li family to be so reclusive.
Seeing him like this, Li Zhongbi stopped talking nonsense and went directly to the city to find Mr. Fan.
"Okay! That's great. I was still worried about how I could deal with that girl Zhan Qingyue's pictures! God is helping me now."
Han Junsheng felt happy when he heard the news from the secret guard. He was extremely glad that the secret guard was sent to keep an eye on the new village.
"Go and give a little money to those people who went to the county government to complain, so that they can fight to the death!"
The secret guard retreated out of Han Junsheng's sight.
Han Junsheng grinned, straightened his clothes, and found Han Yiyun in person.
"Boy, I heard that the girl from the Han family is involved in a lawsuit. As long as you and dad give in, it only takes one sentence. I will help you settle this matter in minutes."
Han Yiyun's eyes were full of disdain, and he was unwilling to give him even an extra smile.
"Han Junsheng, don't cry like a cat here. A rat is showing mercy. Do you dare to say that you didn't interfere in this matter?"
Han Junsheng was stunned and laughed awkwardly.
"Cui Zhu, is there any movement ahead? Let's go up and have a look."
Zhan Qingyue carried the bamboo basket on her back and walked forward step by step.
