Chapter 44 44. Start farming

The most important thing in a famine is food. Mu Zixiao needs people to cultivate and fields.

A load of grain is equal to 100 catties, and if an adult is given 30 catties of grain for a month, the family can live by saving some food.

One thousand dan of grain is 4000 catties. It is reasonable to say that everyone in Qing'an City can survive the cold winter, but the relief of refugees, even young and middle-aged people, can only rescue [-] people at most in a month.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for the thousand dan of food to be given to the working young and middle-aged people. At least half of the original relief should be maintained and allocated to the old, weak, sick and disabled. If this group can pull out 2000 people, it will be considered a harvest. .

She can use the improved seeds from the base, supplemented by Zijinxiao catalysis. According to the data reported by Wei Ke, the current improved varieties cannot reach the harvest level under the current land and weather conditions. The output can reach 400 catties, which is an astronomical figure for most farmers, but time waits for no one, and their growth cycle cannot solve the urgent need at this time.

The soybeans they developed can increase the spiritual power of the land, and the yield per mu can reach up to 400 catties, but the production cycle of soybeans is as high as 90 days. Even based on the current weather data near Qing'an City, it may be extended to 110 days.

Currently there is no time to plant these varieties, even Zijin Xiao cannot solve this large-scale catalysis and shortening.

Muzixiao discovered that things went round and round and finally returned to Tudou.

They have developed potato seeds and put them into production in the Central Plains.Although this variety is not useful for spiritual practice in the cultivation world of the Zhongtian Continent, it is just that the mortal species can be used for the cultivation of spiritual soil in the world of immortality.

But the most important thing for people is to have enough food and not starve to death.

At this time, as long as it can survive, it doesn't matter whether it is the best species.

The potato production cycle is calculated based on the production data of the fields around Qing'an City. With Zijin Xiao's blessing, it can be shortened to 30 days. The yield per mu can be conservatively estimated to reach 3000 kilograms. She calculated the surrounding wasteland and available land, which is at least [-] acres.

As long as she survives the first month, she will be able to have [-] loads of food, and the refugees will be guaranteed not to starve to death this winter, and they will be able to move in the future!

But potatoes can't be eaten too much. If everyone lives on potatoes, there will be flatulence, indigestion and nutritional problems, and some fields will be left to grow beans.

It is not only to prepare for the later land stubble, but also to help the subsequent spiritual planting of food as the main force to nourish the land's aura.

With beans, it only takes six or seven days to sprout bean sprouts, which is the fastest vegetable available.

Mu Zixiao secretly rejoiced that the weather was still in autumn. Although the data showed that the weather in Xingling Prefecture was colder than usual, everything was considered in time, and he could still prepare for the real winter.

Mu Zixiao wrote the plan in hand into a booklet. She didn't need to write these, but for the sake of future generations, she needed to record everything.

After taking the time to contact Weike about bringing in the talents and seeds that Weike would prepare tomorrow, Muzixiao got the good news from Ying Luan.

There were a lot of people signing up today, a rough estimate of around 1000 people.

Some people are scrambling to be the first, while others are cautious and still on the sidelines.

Nie Daiyu also received a thousand tons of grain from Tan Jin, but her face was not good when she reported it back. She must have faced a lot of trouble.

But Muzixiao can also understand. After all, this thousand tons of grain alone is the bottom line of the entire Xinglingzhou. It is also the foundation for Tan Jin to settle down. The biggest card in his hand, if it were not for him, it would be so difficult. The little son I got, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to spit out so much food even if the knife was held to his neck.

Muzixiao just silently poured a cup of tea for her, then watched her resurrected with full health, pack her things, and arrange to move into the city lord's mansion tomorrow.

Mu Zixiao is not worried about the land, because the people in the Zhongtian Continent are different from the ordinary people in the Central Plains Continent. They don't like farming, and they don't have much pursuit of the land. Those "high-class people" can't see it, these lands with almost no spiritual power, they don't bother to touch them.

Only farmers or merchants who have no hope of becoming immortals will farm.

The [-] mu calculated by Mu Zixiao is an unclaimed land that is easy to reclaim. If it can support more people, she is confident that Qing'an City will be full of fertile land for thousands of miles.

Tan Jin, Qi Yan, and Kang Ye, took the plan sheet that they could do, and kept the foundation of the Tang family's forces running, and proceeded in an orderly manner. They waited for her people to come, and started from scratch to let the refugees outside the city live up.

 This chapter has been revised, and the previous ancient measurement of Dan and Stone has been changed to be uniformly measured in kilograms.

  The yield per mu in this article has been changed based on actual data. The yield and growth cycle of the improved fairy species are slightly different from the actual yield per mu. Please understand.
