I really don't want to rebel

Chapter 273

"That's right!" Xibanhou suddenly realized, and said, "With the insulation of this plastic sheet, why are you afraid of locusts? If the locusts lie on it and won't go away, if it doesn't work, send someone to drive them away! Light-transmitting cloth! The locusts can't see the food, so they naturally fly away! Brother-in-law, you have really helped me a lot!"

Jiang Yunfan said with a smile: "Brother's words are very true! In summer, the shed does not need to be covered with plastic sheets, just leave it open, otherwise the temperature inside is too high for the people to work hard; during the autumn harvest, locust plagues break out most frequently You need to cover the plastic sheet before the day! This way, it will not be a problem to last until the autumn harvest, and you don’t need to take it down. After the autumn harvest, you can rest and the people can grow crops in the greenhouse again, with two seasons of grain every year! No matter how barren and uninhabited your land in the west is, it is enough for you to feed countless people! There is even a lot of money and food left over to recruit soldiers and horses for my uncle!"

"Okay! That's great! What my brother-in-law said is very true!" Xibanhou laughed, and the gloom was swept away, leaving only boundless joy.

"Come, come, uncle, take a look at my latest seedlings!" Jiang Yunfan said with a smile: "The ones here have grown for more than half a month, and they have grown quite a bit. The ones over there are one-month, two-month-old. The three-month-old ones, and the last one that grows the tallest, are already mature, but they haven't had time to harvest!"

"How long is the growth cycle of this thing?" Xibanhou said with a smile on his face.

"Probably about four months." Jiang Yunfan smiled slightly and said, "And the output is not small!"

Xibanhou became more interested after hearing this, and said with a smile, "Oh? Four months is considered a normal growth cycle, and the yield is not small? How big can it be?"

Jiang Yunfan said: "I don't know the yield at the moment. I think it will be much higher than the normal crop yield. Why don't uncle help me harvest it?"

Xibanhou said with a smile: "Okay! If the people under this Marquis can plant such gods, let alone harvesting crops, even if you let me cultivate every day, there will be no problem at all!"

Jiang Yunfan, Xibanhou, Zhang Tao, and Wang Xiaoer took off their long gowns, put on bunts, and went to work in the field.

Xibanhou had never done farm work before, didn't know how to harvest, and was too embarrassed to ask, so he began to pull out the corn stalks with great effort.

Jiang Yunfan said with a smile: "Uncle, you don't need to root the roots, just break off the fruit on top! The straw can be cut off with a sickle after the fruit is broken off. It is a good choice whether it is feeding livestock or cooking. .”

Xibanhou laughed and said, "Okay! Our cattle in Xijun are all skinny and skinny! The people are starving, and they don't have the energy to graze their cattle, and the cattle are too thin!"

Jiang Yunfan pursed his lips and smiled.

The livestock in Huayang County are extremely strong!Jiang Yunfan's tofu workshop produces a large amount of bean dregs every day, which are directly pressed into bean cakes and fed to livestock!Add two dried grasshoppers to it from time to time, and the animal grows tall and strong!

Jiang Yunfan and the others are not long-term farm workers, no better than Xibanhou. Fortunately, the corn is very easy to break, and the goal is big, and the four of them broke all the corn in a short time.

There are 300 corn fruits neatly placed on the ground!
Jiang Yunfan said with a smile: "This thing is called corn, commonly known as corn, and it needs to be planted closely. One mu of land can plant 3000 plants! The land we harvested just now is a subdivision of land, which means that one mu of land can harvest 3000 corns!"

Jiang Yunfan casually grabbed a corn, the corn grew very big, Jiang Yunfan was tall and burly, the corn was as long as his forearm!

It is indeed a high-yield corn seed!Even the fruit is so big!

Jiang Yunfan tore off the coat of the corn and said with a smile: "Look, the fruit of this corn is the yellow granule, which is very sweet and can be used as a staple food! Even if you collect too much and you can't finish it, you can also process it into flour! In fact, there are What a windfall!"

"What kind of windfall? Good brother-in-law, you should tell me quickly! I'm dying of anxiety!" Xi Banhou jumped up and down, almost making a move.

This brother-in-law is good at everything, but he always half-talks. If it wasn't for the face of my long-lost sister, I would have already started fighting!

Well, although it seems that I can't beat it!
Jiang Yunfan pointed and said, "Look there, there is a ditch! Are you familiar with the things beside the ditch?"

"Crayfish?" Zhang Tao and Wang Xiaoer's eyes widened.

"That's right!" Jiang Yunfan smiled.

Xibanhou grabbed a crayfish curiously and said, "What is this? Is it a pest?"

Jiang Yunfan laughed and said: "No! I mean that corn and crayfish can be raised together! In winter, we dig a ditch, fill it with clean water, and put hundreds of shrimp seedlings. Crayfish and corn are extremely demanding on the temperature of the environment. Similarly, the crayfish will grow up slowly and can eat insects and some corn leaves, but the disadvantage is that you can’t raise too many, otherwise it may inhibit the growth of corn.”

"Crayfish? What are you doing?" Xibanhou scratched his head as he had never seen it before.

Jiang Yunfan said with a smile; "Today, I will treat my brother-in-law to eat spicy crayfish and corn!"

"Okay! I will rely on my brother-in-law to eat for a few more days!" Xibanhou said with a smile: "Now I am finally relieved. The greenhouse and corn have given me a great surprise. Can raise shrimp!"

Zhang Tao and Wang Xiaoer caught more than 200 crayfish in the greenhouse, and each carried a few corns.

Several people came out of the shed, shivered by the cold wind outside, and changed back into their long gowns.

Jiang Yunfan called Yiyi, and Yiyi was busy making a fire and cooking.

"Young master! The yield of this corn is really huge!" Zhang Tao ran over and said with a smile: "My son, I checked, and on average four corns can harvest five catties! Three thousand corn plants per mu, that is 1200 catties! "

"So much?" Jiang Yunfan was also taken aback.

Jiang Yunfan knew that the yield of corn was high, and he also knew that it was a high-yield seed produced by the dog system, but he really didn't expect such a large yield!

In the previous life, the highest yield of corn was about 2000 jin per mu, but where is it?This is ancient times!Without auxiliary substances such as chemical fertilizers, it depends on a piece of land!
Jiang Yunfan originally thought that about 700 catties per mu of land would be enough!Who would have thought that there would be such a high output?
Xibanhou's eyes widened again, and he asked excitedly: "1200 catties? One mu? Oh my God! No matter how barren my land in Xifeng is, I can still weigh seven or eight hundred catties! That's great! That's great!"

"Don't worry, uncle, there are better ones!" Jiang Yunfan could already smell the aroma of crayfish and corn.

Xibanhou's face turned cold, he really wanted to hit him!What do you mean when you always say half a word?no!calm down!This is my own brother-in-law!Can't do it!Can't do it!
Xibanhou took several deep breaths in a row.

Yiyi came over with a large pot full of spicy crayfish, and said in a pretty voice, "Master, brother is eating!"
