Chapter 51 Like a Weed

"Where are we going to pull the seedlings? Why haven't we arrived after walking for so long?"

An Beibei changed the subject very bluntly, and Qi Jingyu didn't expose her.

He can see that this woman is like the wild rabbit on the Cangmang Mountain. If she is too tight, she will hide in the hole and cannot come out. She can only weave a net, surround and tighten it bit by bit, leaving her nowhere. can escape.

"It has arrived."

"Huh? Where?"

Just when An Beibei was wondering, Qi Jingyu had already flattened his trousers and went to the field.

It turned out that they had been standing on the edge of Qi's field just now, discussing metabolism for a long time.

The seedlings in the Qi family's field are much stronger than those of the Bao family, and they are not as yellowed, but they are dense and sparse.

It doesn't look like artificial planting at all, but like natural growth.

Qi Jingyu is a smart person, as can be seen from the fact that he specially pulls out the seedlings in dense places.

An Beibei, who was standing on the shore, couldn't hold back her doubts, and asked curiously, "Why are our seedlings in such clumps, like weeds?"

Qi Jingyu wanted to say that the seeds were not evenly sprinkled, but most of them were like this.

But when he thought of the weird words and thoughts that came out of An Beibei's mouth, he asked instead: "Then what do you think the seedlings should be like?"

"Of course, it's the kind that is neatly arranged in rows and rows, and the green ones can be harvested at a glance."

An Beibei took it for granted.

Immediately thinking of something, she said excitedly: "I see, it's because we haven't transplanted rice seedlings yet, right?"

"Planting seedlings?"

"That's right, when the seedlings are transplanted, the seedlings can be replanted neatly!"

By the way, she seemed to have seen the report of the rice transplanter on the news, and only then did she remember that the seedlings need to be transplanted afterward.

Qi Jingyu couldn't understand it.

"Since the seedlings have grown well, why do they need to be replanted?"

"This... I don't know either!"

She didn't study farming, so how could she know this, "But transplanting rice seedlings is definitely beneficial!"

On this point, An Beibei swears.

Modern agriculture is the most superior planting method obtained so far after thousands of years of planting experience and scientific practice. It is definitely much more effective than this almost natural planting method.

"What's the benefit? One more toss?"

"If one more toss can increase food production, why not?"

Qi Jingyu raised his head abruptly, and looked straight at her: "Are you sure?"

"Uh……"

An Beibei looked a little weak from his serious eyes, swallowed and said: "In theory, it is so, but I have never planted or learned how to plant, so I dare not... fully guarantee it."

Qi Jingyu withdrew his gaze and continued to pull out the seedlings with his head down, but he didn't completely reject An Beibei's idea.

"What do you mean by theory?"

"That is... if we plant the seedlings at a certain distance to ensure that each seedling enjoys sufficient sunlight and nutrients, the rice harvest will definitely increase."

"According to what you said, the number of seedlings planted will definitely be greatly reduced. Even if the harvest per plant increases, the overall harvest should be lower than it is now."

"Who said that? You see, most of the seedlings in the field are not nutritious enough. Even if such seedlings grow up, they won't bear a few grains of rice. It's like food for ten people, but you insist on giving it to a hundred people." As a result, everyone is starved to death, and the work done by a hundred people is no more than ten strong people."

Hey, no, I can actually see which seedlings lack nutrients!
