Chapter 114 Let's see if we can develop a specialty agriculture program in our area.
Then I found a tree, hugged it, and started gagging.
I wondered what she had done to deserve this dish that was universally criticized by netizens.
Ugh, my tongue is so sore.
With her stomach empty, Qiao Manman decided to give up. She found a corner, took out a box of stir-fried beef with green peppers from her spatial storage, and ate her fill with white rice.
After that, I found a production team and bought some lotus seeds and lotus root starch from the members.
Seeing a pond in the village, Qiao Manman asked, "Auntie, can I buy a few lotus flowers from you?"
Luo Xiuhe was taken aback: "You want flowers? I can, but those flowers grow lotus pods, it would be a waste to pick them now!"
Qiao Manman realized she had misunderstood and quickly said, "We need not only the flowers, but also the leaves and lotus roots!"
"Auntie, could you ask someone to help me dig up a few plants? I'll take them back to the yard!"
Luo Xiuhe exclaimed in alarm: "Girl, this lotus root is deeply embedded. If you pull it out, the flowers and leaves on top will break, and the lotus root might even break!"
If you like lotus flowers, your aunt will give you some seeds so you can plant them yourself when you get home.
"Let the things in the pond grow as they are!"
In Qiao Manman's memory, the lotus flowers in the park were planted directly from the rhizome, which ensured that they would bloom in the same year.
However, there are also news reports that ancient lotus seeds have "come back to life," so it is likely that planting lotus seeds is also possible, it's just a matter of time.
He immediately nodded: "Then thank you, Auntie! By the way, is the lotus root here crisp or glutinous?"
If you have both types of seeds, could I have some of each?
Seeing that she was easy to talk to, Luo Xiuhe nodded quickly: "Sure! We have everything here, do you want anything else?"
Qiao Manman thought about the specialties of Hangzhou and asked, "Can I have some tea trees, osmanthus trees, loquat trees, and water shield seedlings?"
I've heard that the walnuts here are quite famous. I wonder if our village has any?
Upon hearing this, Luo Xiuhe smiled broadly, her eyes crinkling at the corners of her mouth: "Yes, yes, yes, we have them all!"
"Come on, let's go home. Auntie will dig some for you first thing tomorrow morning!"
Although these things are public property, the team leader values those that have grown up and can bear fruit.
Every year, the harvested fruit is sent to purchasing stations, which earns a considerable amount of money.
As for the small seedlings that sprouted nearby, no one paid them any attention.
Some people are so greedy that they'll even step on it when they pass by.
So without even hesitating, he agreed to Qiao Manman's offer and even warmly invited her to stay at his home!
Qiao Manman didn't want to stay at a stranger's house, so she declined and said she would come over the next morning.
Luo Xiuhe considered her family's circumstances and didn't insist.
He only reminded me, "Make sure you're up early tomorrow, we're heading up the mountain around 5 a.m.!"
Qiao Manman agreed and had someone deliver the lotus seeds and lotus root powder she bought to the village entrance.
A moment later, the sun set, and Qiao Manman had the system amplify the surrounding audio signals.
Once she was certain that all she could hear were insects chirping and birds singing, Qiao Manman placed her hand on the sack and slipped into her spatial dimension.
Move the items with little shelf life from the storage area to the farmland and stack them neatly, then organize and put the lotus seeds and lotus root powder there.
After finishing my work, I came to the edge of the rice paddy and found that the crabs were quite at ease.
They walked around with their arms outstretched, and I don't know if it was just my imagination, but they seemed a tiny bit bigger than when they came in.
Qiao Manman went in and caught a few to check, and found that there were both males and females.
She was a little tempted, but not too much, and decided to try it.
If we can breed baby crabs, we'll have an endless supply of Chengcheng crabs to eat.
After the system learned of her thoughts, it could only roll its eyes and say, "How pathetic."
But it dared not, and had to coax in a soft voice: "Host, if we work hard and accumulate merit, we might be able to have everything when the system space expands."
Why bother with all that trouble!
Qiao Manman leaned back in her recliner: "You don't understand, collecting is also a kind of joy!"
Otherwise, how could there be a market for those post-apocalyptic novels? Who wouldn't want a space to buy, buy, buy?
The human world presents a barrier to the small system.
The system stopped talking, and then Qiao Manman got up and went for a stroll under the fruit trees.
The bees behaved themselves and didn't swarm around to sting her at all.
The fruit trees have grown much taller, and the fruits are now the size of walnuts.
"Wait a minute, judging by the rate at which they're bearing fruit, the cherries should be ripe by now!"
Qiao Manman went over to take a look, and lo and behold, a green fruit the size of an egg: "Good heavens, has this mutated?"
"It's not a mutation, but rather that it's been impacted by energy, resulting in improved quality."
Well, you can understand it as energy causing them to produce abundant fruit and expand.
Qiao Manman nodded and left.
Looking at the wheat planted in the flower bed, I found that it had only grown three to five centimeters taller.
It is evident that substances that affect plant growth are hidden in the soil.
Qiao Manman took out a small stove and started a fire to cook.
She wished the space were a bit bigger so she could bring in some furniture and create a cozy nest.
But it's not bad now; at least she can get some rest for a while, so I'm content.
Qiao Manman made sweet and sour pork and stir-fried a plate of garlic broccoli.
The main dish was small steamed buns, which were instant food taken directly from the stationary space and steamed.
After Meimei finished eating, she asked the system to wake her up at four in the morning, and then she fell asleep on the recliner.
The next morning, Qiao Manman came out of the space and walked into the village.
As soon as she arrived near the pond, she saw Luo Xiuhe waiting for her there. She also had two packets of seeds with her.
Qiao Manman greeted her with a smile, "Good morning, Aunt Xiuhe!"
"Oh, good morning! Have you eaten yet, girl? Would you like to come over for a quick bite?"
Qiao Manman shook her head: "I've already eaten. It was lotus root starch soup, and it was delicious!"
Luo Xiuhe was secretly pleased: "Of course, our water is so good that the lotus roots we grow here are sweeter than those from other places."
You've come to the right place!
Qiao Manman agreed and followed Luo Xiuhe up the tea mountain.
Hundreds of acres of Longjing tea are planted here. Although the tea grown in summer is not as good as that grown before the Qingming Festival, it is still very popular in the market.
Looking at the lush green leaves, Qiao Manman couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, do you have any pre-Qingming tea?"
Luo Xiuhe laughed awkwardly: "Girl, I sold them to the purchasing station before tomorrow. I kept a few taels at home. You can have them all if you want!"
Qiao Manman nodded: "Then thank you, Auntie!"
Luo Xiuhe hummed in agreement and bent down to dig up a few seedlings for her.
Qiao Manman glanced at it and realized it really was small.
The seedlings are about ten centimeters tall, with four or five leaves on them.
It's so delicate and tender, it looks like it would break if the wind blew it.
But she said nothing and followed Luo Xiuhe into the mountains.
There were several tall loquat trees here. Luo Xiuhe broke off a few branches for her and dug up two small seedlings under the trees.
"Girl, what do you need these for? To plant them when you get home?"
Qiao Manman nodded: "Yes, we're planning to go back and set up an experimental field to see if we can develop a specialty agriculture program in our area!"
Luo Xiuhe thought she was being whimsical, but she didn't say anything unpleasant.
He smiled and praised, "Young people are so bold and daring!"
Qiao Manman laughed heartily: "Right, right!"
While we must respect objective reality, we can create an environment suitable for plant growth!
I believe that miracles can happen with great effort!
