Chapter 141 Planting Farmland
In the entire Northwest, under Zhou Ximing's deployment, a total of six porridge shops have been set up, and these people finally don't have to rummage around looking for bark and grass roots to live.

Bai Susu nestled in the gate of the house, with a pile of potatoes and sweet potatoes beside her.These potatoes and sweet potatoes were cut into small pieces by Bai Susu, and each small piece had roots and sprouts.

After Zhou Ximing came back from those porridge shops, he saw these things beside Bai Susu. He sat next to her, curious about these things, "These are the potatoes and sweet potatoes you mentioned."

"En." Bai Susu nodded, and she passed the potato cakes and sweet potato cakes on the side to Zhou Ximing, "These are made from potatoes and sweet potatoes, how do you taste it?"

Zhou Ximing looked at the two kinds of cakes in front of him, and took them out to taste. It was a taste he had never tasted before, but it was really good.

"Potatoes and sweet potatoes like this can produce more than 4000 catties per acre." Bai Susu looked up at him with a smile, took his hand, and let him sit beside her, "Plant these things down, In just over a month, the famine can be completely overcome.”

"Okay." Zhou Ximing responded, asking Ah Ying to plant all these things cultivated by Bai Susu into the soil to expand the planting area.

Every day, Bai Susu took the new seeds cultivated every day to the farmlands in various places, and planted these potatoes and sweet potatoes into the soil.

After working like this for more than ten days, Bai Susu replanted the dry land with crops.On this day, she was wearing a brown dress and went to the field to watch the growth of various crops as usual.

"The girl is here." A woman saw Bai Susu approaching, and immediately raised a smile on her face, "We are watching the crops here, so you don't have to come here every day, the sun is poisonous."

"It's okay, I'll come and have a look. If there's any problem, I'll solve it as soon as possible." With a smile on her face, Bai Susu looked at the green land with relief in her heart.

"No, we are all watching." A girl holding a child ran over and handed Bai Susu a bowl of water with gratitude in her eyes, "If the girl hadn't found this way, we wouldn't have done anything." Can't grow it."

"The land here is dry, and the harvest of wheat and beans is always bad. Planting this may double the harvest." Before planting, Bai Susu showed these people potatoes and sweet potatoes, and gave them to eat However, this is how to promote these.

Many people now have hope in their hearts, and at the same time rely on the current crops for their future livelihood.

"Girl, we grow these things, is there really someone willing to buy them and eat them?" The woman's eyes were full of hesitation. If they couldn't sell them, they wouldn't be able to exchange them for rice noodles. At that time, they would really have to eat these things every day. something.

"Yes." Bai Susu gave her an affirmative answer, "Don't worry."

She appeased the people here, and then went to another land.When the famine in Northwest China was at its worst, many middle-aged people left here, and a lot of land was vacated.

Bai Susu discussed with Zhou Ximing, took all these lands, and planted them herself.When the time comes to sell these crops abroad, it can drive the crops of other people to sell these potatoes and sweet potatoes.

When she got there, she saw Zhou Ximing standing there early, and Aying beside her was talking.

"I didn't mean to take a break, why come here at this time." Zhou Ximing grabbed her wrist and put a veiled hat that can block the sun on her head. "The sun is poisonous at this time, let's cover it."

Aying stood aside, watching Zhou Ximing put on the hat for Bai Susu as if no one was around, and couldn't help but turn her head to one side.Ever since their master and Miss Bai fell in love with each other, the atmosphere gradually became strange.

Obviously there is not much difference between them and usual, but it just makes Aying feel extra sweet, even the air around is sweet.

Bai Susu smiled and watched Zhou Ximing put the veiled hat on his head, with a pair of dark eyes and a faint smile.

"Is the food in the porridge shop still enough?" Bai Susu looked at Zhou Ximing. The last time she got food from the system was seven days ago, and she doesn't know how much is left.

"It's enough." A Ying who was standing on the side replied ahead of time, looking at Bai Susu with bright eyes, "I don't know where you found the food, but the urgent need has been solved, and now I have found a new one." Grain Depot, so you don’t have to bother looking for food so much.”

Zhou Ximing paused, and he looked back at the guard beside him, with displeasure in his eyes, apparently feeling that the person in front of him talked too much.

Seeing the look in his eyes, Ah Ying immediately closed her mouth, looked up to the sky, and staggered away from here to inspect other places.

Bai Susu watched him leave with a bit of a smile in her eyes. She raised her eyes to look at Zhou Ximing, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "Haven't you ever wondered how I got those grains out?"

"Curiosity." Zhou Ximing responded, "When I was with you in the village, I guessed that you had many secrets, but since you don't want to tell them, I won't ask."

Everyone has their own secrets, Zhou Ximing sometimes looks at Bai Susu and feels that she is full of fascination.His teacher, Mr. Lu, once asked him which village he found the woman from, and her knowledge and insights were not inferior to those of the noble family.

During this period of time with her, he also found that some of her ideas were a bit ahead of her time, and her open-mindedness surprised him.

But it was precisely because she was like this that Zhou Ximing felt happy.Therefore, Zhou Ximing can choose not to ask about everything she hides.

Seeing what he said, the smile in Bai Susu's eyes became even bigger, and she jokingly said, "I created all these things."

Zhou Ximing responded lightly, took Bai Susu's hand, and looked down at the sweet potato seedlings on the ground, "After working for so long, I finally solved the famine problem, so I should go and have a good meeting with those officials. gone."

"Huh?" Bai Susu looked at him, "What happened to the officials here?"

Although those officials usually acted in a positive manner and acted in a negative manner, they did things in a well-organized manner, but these were far from enough for Zhou Ximing to take care of these officials himself.

"They built a secret granary [-] miles outside the Northwest City, where they hid the grain distributed by the imperial court and those that the Northwest City once hoarded." Zhou Ximing frowned, thinking about what he saw yesterday, his voice became deeper and deeper down.
