Chapter 141 A vine grows several melons
Logically speaking, if there is a problem with the first batch of potatoes, the quality of this batch of seeds should be guaranteed.
Xia Qing knew that it was very difficult to cultivate edible crops after natural disasters, and also understood the reason why the crop germination rate was very low.
But Luo Pei once said that the corn seeds he gave to various territories were the grain seeds that were publicly traded in the safe zone.
The genocides used the grains grown by the lords and traded from the management department of the security zone, the germination rate was 10% lower than that of the market, which is very unreasonable.
After the natural disaster, the base management was chaotic, and most people who held power were trying their best to seek personal gain. If you have more power, you will be used to the extreme.
In this unreasonable grain-type incident, I don’t know how many layers of exchange of power and interests are involved.
Xia Qing, who is at the bottom of the base, has seen and experienced this kind of thing in the past ten years.
Xia Qing beat her back on the spot if she bullies her and can resist. If she couldn''t resist, she wrote it in her notebook and waited for the opportunity to resist and go back.
If you really can''t find the right opportunity, even if you throw a stone and smash two pieces of glass in his house, Xia Qing will not make him feel uncomfortable.
Honest people have been bullied to death long ago, and no one who can survive until the tenth year of natural disasters is good. The lords will definitely not let it go for this matter.
Let’s take a look.
Xia Qing recorded the data on the germination of seeds in detail on the notebook, then took out the seedling shovel, moved the seedlings from places with dense seedlings to places where there were no seedlings, and then watered them.
The seedlings should be moved as early as possible. When the seedlings grow, the roots will become deeper and will easily move to death.
After moving the corn seedlings, Xia Qing went to the mung bean fields, cotton fields and vegetable fields one by one, and finally came to the sweet potato, potato and pumpkin fields.
Xia Qing traded with Tan Junjie and obtained sixteen sweet potato seedlings. Six of them evolved in the second rain. Although the four plants did not evolve, the content of the elements in the plant body increased, from a green light to a yellow light.
So there are only six green light sweet potatoes she planted in March now.
There are still 140 of the two hundred sweet potato vines cut in mid-May, now, 60 of them are green and 80 of them are yellow.
The sweet potatoes cut into the late stage of growth. As long as the third rainfall does not show long-term red-level showers, the proportion of sweet potatoes will not be too high.
Even if there is a long-term red-level killing rain, Xia Qing is not afraid because she has Yishi. According to the data given by Luo Pei, her three elves can protect a circular area with a diameter of about 45 meters. Although it is not enough to protect all farmland, the key areas can still be protected.
The harvest is in sight.
Although the potato seedlings are even more resistant than the previous few days, Xia Qing is not in a hurry to dig it because she has no place to put it out. When the potatoes are completely ripe, she will dig it out again and put it into the cave.
The few days after the cave was dug, Xia Qing has been monitoring the temperature and humidity in the cave. The temperature is between thirteen and sixteen degrees, and the humidity is still similar to that outside.
If the cave does not leak in the third rain, Xia Qing will start to perform waterproof and moisture-proof treatment, and then install yushi inside to store food.
She is now like a hardworking little squirrel, constantly making fun of her nest and trying to store food to survive the winter.
When it comes to squirrels, Xia Qing is angry.
The six kilograms of tobacco she exchanged for mung beans were taken away by the red-haired evolution squirrel, and no bird was attracted.
The remaining half of Xia Qing was not stuffed into the bird''s nest, and simply put it in the cave as a material for tide removal.
After passing the sweet potato field and potato field, Xia Qing stopped beside the pumpkin field. Looking at the pumpkin that grew to the size of a baby''s fist, she remembered another vine that should have a few pumpkins left.
Xia Qing turned on the walkie-talkie and heard that Qi Fu was discussing the feasibility of raising fish and shrimp in the rice fields.
Xia Qing is not interested in this.
Most fish have evolved their teeth, and they can even bite the wire mesh. Isn’t it just a side dish to bite rice roots? Even if you choose fish that have not evolved teeth and put them in, you may evolve teething in the rain. Xia Qing only has more than 500 rice plants, and she can’t stand it. After they finished talking about this topic, Xia Qing asked, "Brother Qi, is it appropriate to keep a few melons on a pumpkin vine?"
Qi Fu replied patiently, "It''s hard to say now. We just keep two or three melons on each vine. Let''s take a look at the growth rate. Let''s keep a few of them as much as possible, and try to keep them at the root."
"Okay, thank you Brother Qi." Xia Qing thanked him, picked up the machete and started to pack up the pumpkins.
After packing up the ten yellow-lantern pumpkins in the arable land, Xia Qing carried a knife to chase the terraced fields to clean up the five green-lantern pumpkins in the terraced fields, he heard Zhao Ze say, "Xia Qing, you were not here last night, and my third brother asked you."
Xia Qing pressed the button, "I was too tired yesterday and I fell asleep after I finished my work. Does Brother Zhao know what Brother Third Brother is asking for me?"
"The third brother didn''t say anything." Zhao Ze asked curiously, "There is no heavy work in the field now, what are you busy with?"
Zhao Ze''s tone reminded Xia Qing of the people in Territory No. 4 climbing trees and peeping at his territory. He replied coldly, "It is because I didn''t have a heavy life in these two days, so I took the time to hit two knives. My strength has become stronger, and the original knife was too light to use, so I can''t take advantage of it."
Zhao Ze…
Scaring people, I can’t afford to offend me, so I hide.
Kuang Qingwei immediately asked, "I didn''t expect that Sister Xia Qing still has this ability. Do you sell the iron knife you made? How many points will you get?"
Xia Qing stopped in the pumpkin terrace on the hillside and pressed the walkie-talkie button, "I haven''t learned the skills well. I only got two knives in two days. I use them myself and won''t sell them."
Shi Hu also spoke, "I can save a lot of trouble by myself. The hatchet I brought out of the safe area has collapsed three times, and I have to take it back to the safe area for repair."
Xia Qing replied, "My machete is also broken. I need too many points to go to the iron shop. I have no choice but to buy the materials myself to repair them."
Tang Huai, who was working on the gun, whispered, "I said why did the No. 3 territory keep twitching these two days? It turned out to be a blacksmith? She really knows everything."
Tang Zhengbo, who was reading a book, reminded his son, "Don''t always stare at Territory No. 3. Xia Qing came out to farm, there is no problem."
Tang Huai whispered, "Dad, I really don''t always stare at Territory No. 3. She is too loud, and I can hear it if I don''t want to hear it."
"You have been good at hearing since you were a child. Your mother and I said something in the living room, and you can hear it when you close the bedroom door upstairs."
Only Tang Zhengbo''s three children have evolved from hearing, which is their family''s hope. "You are thirty years old this year, and it''s time to consider getting married. Find a senior evolutionary person to get married, and the next generation can live a more relaxed life."
"Dad, let''s consider my sister first. It''s better to find me a brother-in-law in the brain evolution. They have given birth to children. They are definitely brain evolutionists." Tang Huai didn''t like to listen to this, and immediately turned the topic to his sister, "My sister is 35 years old this year."
Tang Zhengbo really considered this matter, "What do you think of Xie Yu?"
Xie Yu, the second in command of the Qinglong Team?
Tang Huai immediately shook his head, "Forget it, he has no hair. I don''t want my nephew to be bald before he grows up."
Tang Zhengbo smiled angrily, rolled up the book and knocked his son on the head, "You little brat, how old are you looking at? "
Tang Huai covered his head and laughed, "What time does it mean to look at his appearance, otherwise Yang Jin would be so popular?"
Speaking of Yang Jin, Tang Zhengbo asked, "Yang Jin is popular mainly because he is a top evolutionist and has a brain. Isn''t Yang Jin in Territory No. 1 now? Why do you still have time to run over?"
Speaking of this, Tang Huai was so angry that he hummed, "He just returned to the base and ran over before he even went to the safety zone. I thought there was something big, but the result was that there was no movement in Territory No. 1. I heard from Wei Chengdong that Yang Jin had not had a good rest these days and was closing the door to sleep."
"Yang Jin has a temper that he cannot get up early without profit. He and Huo Fenghuang teamed up to explore the sea at the Guicheng base, and he will definitely gain a lot." Tang Zhengbo turned his pen and thought.
Tang Heng continued, "Luo Pei was stationed in the No. 1 territory and brought people to reclaim thousands of acres of farmland. Yang Jin did not return to the safe area this time, so he went straight to this side. I think the Qinglong team really wants to shift the team''s focus from the safe area to this side. Dad, what secret does No. 49 hidden in Mountain No. 49 deserve such a huge sum of money?"
