Chapter 133 Yunyun, are you really not joking?
Lu Xiaoyun told the Lu family about the plan, and Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang were stunned.
"Yes, this rice cannot be planted without water." Lu Dalang said, "In this way, the five acres of land will be wasted."
The south is full of rice, and no one has planted dry rice in this era. In the perception of Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang, rice must live by water.
The dry rice in Lu Xiaoyun's space can truly survive in arid places like the northwest, and the yield is still very high.
However, Lu Xiaoyun could not guarantee that there would be high yields here. After all, in her space, the yield of any crop is high. Furthermore, these dry rice was left before the end of the world. After entering the end of the world, the climate and soil around the world have undergone earth-shaking changes, and what she knows are recorded in the data.
"No, the Hu people said that this rice can be planted without a lot of water. Uncle, things are different from each place, so it's nothing to try. What if the Hu people didn't lie to us?" Lu Xiaoyun looked serious.
When she said this, Lu Dalang thought about it. When they were still in their hometown, they mostly had meals every day. When they arrived in the capital, they realized that many of them used steamed buns and noodles as staple foods.
One place of land and water nourishes the other.
"Okay, then I'll listen to you." Lu Dalang did not express his opinion.
However, the Lu family unanimously approved it, and outsiders knew that they would persuade Lu Dalang and others to follow them to grow wheat and millet. Most of the Hu people were liars in the world.
"In the past, the village chief brought the Hu people's seeds from outside, but he couldn't plant them at all. They were like weeds, and there was no harvest at all."
"Yes, fortunately, the village chief didn't grow much, otherwise the Lu family would have starved to death that year."
"You are from the south, different from our northwest. If you want to grow crops in the northwest, it would be better to listen to us."
...
The villagers are all kind-hearted, afraid that the Lu family will be in vain for work all year round, after all, no one here planted rice.
Lu Dalang agreed with what they said in his heart, but in front of outsiders, no matter what, he would protect Lu Xiaoyun first.
"We were exiled before, and only after listening to Yunyun's words did we avoid several bloody disasters. She also knows how to grow crops. She said that if we can grow, we can definitely grow them. If we really can't grow anything, the worst thing is that our three brothers go out to do short-term work when they have time, and can always support the whole family."
Lu Dalang said this, and the villagers were not willing to persuade him anymore. They found the village chief in private, hoping that the village chief would persuade the Lu family.
The village chief smiled and said, "If it were someone else, I might have said a few words, but if it were the Lu family, we wouldn't have to worry about it. If it weren't for being embarrassed, I would have wanted to ask the Lu family to try some seeds."
"What if one kind of crop doesn't work?"
"We have also opened a lot of waste this year. If the Lu family really does not have the harvest, our family will squeeze out some food rations and let him bear it for a while. There are many men in the Lu family, so life will not be too sad."
The village chief trusted Lu Xiaoyun, and did not think that Lu Xiaoyun knew nothing because he was older.
Maybe they are born different?
Everyone had no choice but to sigh and leave, thinking that they would not open up more wasteland and help the Lu family at that time?
Lu Xiaoyun naturally didn't know that the Lu family had become a worrying existence for villagers.
In mid-February, she began to teach Lu Dalang and others how to burn and raise sweet potato seedlings.
Lu Dalang and the others ate sweet potatoes once during their exile and were obsessed with the taste of sweet potatoes.
However, they have the spirit of not being ashamed to ask about crops they have never grown, such as-
"Yunyun, why do you need to raise seedlings of this sweet potato? Can't we just plant it?"
"Sweet potatoes should also bloom and bear seeds? After planting, do you need to water them every day? Just a few ridges of land, is it enough to breed five acres of seedlings?"
Lu Xiaoyun patiently answered them one by one and told them what the scientific basis for doing this was.
As a wood-type superpower, although she can give birth to plants, she cannot rely on her superpowers to grow food every day, otherwise she would have been overdrawn and died long ago.
So Lu Xiaoyun found a lot of information related to planting on the Internet. She was not a professional agricultural science, but she knew better how to plant than Lu Dalang and others.
Of course, in terms of experience, Lu Xiaoyun is not as good as them.
Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang heard Lu Xiaoyun's explanation and opened the door to the new world. After asking and asking, Lu Xiaoyun was not annoyed.
"Sanlang, our family is really young and knows more than we do. The questions that we couldn't figure out before have answers. Yunyun, is this what my uncle taught you about medical skills?"
"No, it's another uncle."
She used it to give to the old man who had been through medical skills. Because she knew medical skills, she had never been in the field in her life. How could she know so much?
So my uncle doesn’t bother with too many people, he can count on each one.
"So that's it." Both of them had him.
Lu Yuanming had been fighting for many years and was definitely not as good as his two brothers in farming, and he didn't think so much about it.
After planting all the sweet potato seeds that were raised, Lu Xiaoyun and the others went home together.
"Can this sweet potato be collected 300 kilograms per acre of land?"
"Three hundred kilograms?"
"Are you too much? Then two hundred should be there? In the past, we planted rice, and we could have a total of three or four hundred kilograms per acre of land a year."
"No, it's too little. You should think about higher yields, such as one thousand pounds."
When Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang heard this, they choked by their saliva and started coughing.
"Yunyun, tell the truth. Don't joke with your uncle and others, they can't stand it." Lu Yuanming helplessly patted his two brothers on the back and forth.
Lu Xiaoyun looked innocent, "No kidding, I'm still talking about it. I heard that this sweet potato can reach up to three or four thousand kilograms per acre."
Lu Dalang and the others coughed even harder.
Lu Xiaoyun: “…”
The soil in the northwest is very suitable for this variety of sweet potatoes. If nothing unexpected happens, the yield per mu is 2,000 kilograms is absolutely fine.
However, if you want to truly increase the grain output in the northwest, you still have to change the problem of desertification here first.
If you want to be rich, plant trees first!
Most food crops have high requirements for water.
Lu Xiaoyun knew that the seeds of some crops were to be cultivated, such as hybrid rice. The yield of the first generation was high, the yield of the second generation began to decrease, and then became weaker and weaker. She couldn't guarantee that the seeds in the space could maintain their initial yield.
After all, climate and environment will affect the changes or degeneration of plants' genes.
She can't take out crop seeds from space like this for the rest of her life, and she will sooner or later be suspected.
"Dad, I think, if you want everyone to live a good life, greening is very important." Lu Xiaoyun said to Lu Yuanming.
Lu Yuanming was puzzled, "Green? What is that?"
"It means turning the desert into a forest." Lu Xiaoyun said concisely.
Lu Dalang and Lu Erlang spoke in unison, "Yunyun, aren't you really kidding?"
