Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 22 Plant Growth Agents

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the crops in the north entered the mature harvest time. Corn, sorghum, millet, soybeans, and peanuts matured next to each other. The farmers should have been busy, but in response to the call of the country, only children, the elderly, and women were left in the team.

Looking at the grain in the field, and seeing the rise of the canteen on the black market, many people secretly sold grain in order not to be found out and not want to hand it all to the canteen.

Zhang Yu couldn't bear it anymore, and checked the food he had signed in these days, which was almost enough for the family to consume for three years.

Originally, he didn't want to take care of these cheaply sold grains, but he still couldn't help it. Forget it, because he signed up for the crit on August 500th and got 1000 yuan, plus the daily change The little sister-in-law of Heping Daily asked him to replace the money he left behind with the things he got when he signed in. When he bought things, he put together about 1 yuan. If he just bought coarse grains, he could buy more than [-] catties.

Even knowing that the food bought with this money is just a drop in the bucket for many people, and it is very likely to expose themselves and cause trouble for themselves.

But the gentleman does something and doesn’t. Thinking of the people who helped him in the courtyard, when he was injured, because he didn’t have a bicycle, and his sister-in-law and uncle were not there, several men in the yard took turns to carry him to the hospital.Later, when I went to change the dressing, I heard from the nurses that when the big men arrived, they were completely soaked, and water could be squeezed out of their clothes.

He still couldn't help but secretly found several people and asked them to help buy coarse grains, but he never showed up.

This is also due to the camouflage mask obtained from the system check-in. As long as you wear him, it is like changing a face in an instant, which is basically the same as the real person.

He found a haunted house that people call to collect food.After receiving the food, in order to avoid being exposed, he didn't even say a few words, just paid and kicked people out.

On the way to the pigeon market, he found that there are still many smart people. He usually didn't think that more than 1 catties of food was missing this time, so it was obvious.

In the pigeon market, there were obviously several groups of people who were buying food in large quantities. He was a little lucky at this moment. Fortunately, he bought relatively little, and he only bought once and then withdrew.

Otherwise, no matter how concealed you are, you will be exposed sooner or later.

And he also reflected on his recent impulsiveness and arrogance. Since time travel and rebirth, he has basically encountered no difficulties. Even if there are difficulties, the elders in the family will help him solve them silently, thinking that he is very good.

In addition, relying on the system, I feel safe and unscrupulous. I didn’t have the care at the beginning, and thanks to my family, I thought he found some channels that others didn’t know when purchasing, and they covered him. Otherwise, there are probably many people. Be suspicious.

Know that the power of the masses is powerful.The power of the country is stronger.

After thinking about it, after looking at the many materials signed in, he gave up the idea of ​​taking it out immediately, because with his education, his knowledge and growth experience, he should not and cannot understand these.

He didn't want to be treated as a spy and sent to prison, so he decided to study hard after work.

In this way, even if he comes up with more advanced technology in the future, it can be said to be the usual accumulation plus occasional flashes of inspiration.

In order to be able to present these materials openly in the future, he went to the bookstore to buy some books.

See if you can get a library card, and read more books when you are off duty.

Looking at the coarse grains in the secret space, and thinking about his family, he secretly made up his mind that he would never do such a risky thing again.

Since the beginning of autumn, the weather has gradually turned cooler, and the boundaries between morning, noon and evening have gradually become clear.In the morning and evening, the weather is relatively cool, so you need to wear a thick coat, and when it is hot at noon, you need to wear short sleeves.

One autumn rain and one cold, the autumn rain last night made the weather drop a lot.

Because it rained yesterday, the flower bed assigned to him at the door was already wet, so there was no need to water it anymore.

The seeds I changed last time have not been planted yet, only a few watermelons and pumpkins, plus some leeks, and there is still a lot of space left, just in time to plant spinach and cabbage after it rains today.

At this time, when Zhang Yu checked the system space, he accidentally turned to the plant growth agent, and then remembered that he was too excited to sign in because of pumpkin seeds, so he ignored it.

After looking at its function, this is the most basic plant growth agent, the effect is not so obvious, but it is also his advantage at this time, because the improvement is slow and unnoticeable.

After using it, it will imperceptibly improve the genes of the crops, so that the genes of the crops will be improved randomly, or the plants will become stronger, the yield will increase, the taste will be improved, or it will be resistant to drought, or it will be resistant to diseases and insect pests...

Of course, because it is random, there may also be bad situations. The crops may only produce more beautiful fruits and reduce production.

Zhang Yu was very much looking forward to this. According to the instructions, he dripped it into water at a ratio of 1:1000, and then soaked the wheat seeds in it for three hours.

Due to the uncertainty of the variation of the plant growth agent and the fact that it is too rare, I have only signed in once after signing in for so long.

So Zhang Yu was very careful when using it, and it was only used as an improvement of staple food.

Even if the yield cannot be increased, improvements such as drought and flood resistance are possible.

The green plant improver dripped into the water and turned light green. When the wheat seeds were taken out three hours later, the water had become the same color as clear water, and the wheat seeds had become fuller and more shiny.

When she was about to plant the wheat seeds, Zhang Guifang saw it: "Xiaoyu, what are you going to plant?"

"Grow wheat!" Zhang Yu was a little puzzled, why did my sister ask such a question?

Hearing Zhang Yu's words, Zhang Guifang laughed loudly: "You silly boy, what kind of wheat are you planting at this time?" She couldn't help laughing while talking.

"Stupid child, didn't you hear what the elders said, the white dew is early, the cold dew is late, and the autumnal equinox is the right time for planting wheat, and there are still many days before the autumnal equinox."

Listening to my sister's words, Zhang Yu scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly, then had to dry the seeds and take them back.

Then, with the idea of ​​not wasting, put cabbage seeds and spinach seeds into the water that has been absorbed to see if they can still have a little effect.

Seeing him leveling the land, Uncle Zhao asked, "Xiao Shou, what are you planting?"

"Uncle Zhao, I sprinkled some cabbage and spinach just now." Zhang Yu put down his work and said to Uncle Zhang while washing his hands.

"Is it a bit thicker?"

"Uncle Zhao, I have collected a lot of seeds and sprinkled them thicker. When the time comes, they will grow and eat, and then I will pick two spinach or young cabbage seedlings to cook salty rice." He took them out from the window sill Unused seeds: "Uncle Zhao still has a lot left, so if you want to sprinkle some too."

"Then I'll scatter a little too. I can buy less cabbage in winter, which will save me a lot." He said and took a handful of seeds from him.

"Are these enough? Uncle Zhao, I still have a lot and I'll take some more."

"No, no, that's enough. Your aunt still needs to grow some leeks. I don't see the leek roots you planted last time. They grew well. I have already harvested them once. Your aunt has also moved her mind and asked someone to get some. Leek roots are going to be planted."
