Chapter 9 How to Grow Crops Without Jinkela
Early the next morning, I climbed out of the dormant cabin full of energy.
In fact, it's not that I have a good habit of getting up early, but that the memories of my past life that have been bothering me for a long time have been playing in my dreams more and more recently.
A moment later, there was a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He said seriously that there would be a Sino-US co-production in the second half of this year...
After a while, there was a arrogant woman, constantly beating the door and shouting, "If you have the ability to rob a man, you have the ability to open the door..."
After a while, three men who looked exactly the same appeared, twisting their bodies enchantingly, accompanied by a piece of music singing "This is your excuse to break up..."
"Why do I have such poisonous memories in my previous life!"
After complaining, I sat up from the bed and found that my energy had recovered quite well. I don't know if it was a systemic reason or a psychological factor, or the novelty of being in a new environment?
Facing the bright sunshine, I opened the old wooden door and walked outside the ranch.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I took a few steps out, I bumped into a middle-aged man.
"Ah, it hurts... Boss Dart, why is it you?"
I took a closer look and saw a middle-aged man with a serious face, meticulously combed back hair, and two mustaches in front of me.
Isn't he the owner of the hotel?
Boss Dart rubbed the painful area and handed over a brown paper bag.
"I'll bring you a breakfast. I thought young people wouldn't get up so quickly."
This uncle is really cold-faced and warm-hearted!
I sighed inwardly, took the gift from the boss, and opened it to see that it was a bag of cookies. They were baked, crispy, sweet, and steaming. I was afraid they had been delivered not long after they were baked.
"Boss, please sit down. I have nothing to entertain you here. How about... I build a chair for you and send it over?"
I looked around and felt that my house was really bare, and the general-purpose stone I cut yesterday was a relatively rare item.
The boss didn't accept my polite words. He looked at the "simple" furnishings in my room and spoke a little embarrassedly.
"What I said yesterday was a bit harsh. I thought about it all night and decided to apologize to you. In fact, apart from not meeting the standards of gourmet food, the food you cooked is not as bad as I said..."
I stopped the boss's topic. I knew in my heart that he was talking about simple food and pemmican cakes yesterday. I was afraid that it had seriously offended his self-esteem as a chef, so I put down those comments.
To be fair, his evaluation is completely in line with the description of the food.
But for him to tell the truth probably still caused a psychological burden on him.
I smiled and said.
"Boss, everything you said is correct. The food I eat is just for filling my stomach, and it has no use at all with the food you cook."
Boss Dart was not a very eloquent person. Knowing that I understood what he meant, he didn’t say any more and sat down on the stone bench next to me.
"Are you going to sow seeds today?"
I am holding two bags of seeds in my hands, ready to find a piece of land to start the first round of sowing on the pasture.
"Yes, the potatoes and grass seeds sent by the mayor yesterday."
"Then you go about your business, I'll watch for a while and then leave."
I burst into joy in my heart, but on the surface I didn't show any change.
The Three Views were just repaired yesterday. If you come to accept the challenge today, I won't be polite.
I focused my attention on the system interface, and a translucent function menu slowly appeared in front of my eyes.
"Task Selection: Architectural Planning—Area Setting."
"Set a planting area: Create an area where colonists can grow certain plants."
After some research, I already know that the reason why there was no response when I tried to sow seeds yesterday was because this function was not enabled, which resulted in the inability to create a planting area.
Right where I looked, a virtual module glowing red appeared, which looked about five meters square.
"Plant seeds can be sown on land: range 3*3"
"Please confirm where the parcel is shown in green,"
I looked at it and slowly moved the red module to the land that was cleared yesterday, avoiding a place where the soil was suspected to be poor, and placed it squarely in the center.
"Choose Plant Seed: Potato."
"Plant introduction: A simple and nutritious stem plant. It can grow well even in relatively poor land and can be harvested in a short time. It is a powerful all-purpose crop created for the colony."
"Basic attributes:
Light requirement: 51%
Lifespan: 64 days
Minimum growth temperature: 0.0 degrees Celsius
Maximum growth temperature: 58.0 degrees Celsius
Harvest time: 5.8 days
Fertility sensitivity: 100%
Fertility requirement: 70%
Nutrition: 0.20"
After selecting the task, my body started running again involuntarily, and the speed was beyond imagination.
Normal potato planting uses the stem planting method, which involves cutting a whole piece of potato into pieces of a specific size, cultivating them to the point of germination, and transplanting them into the soil.
After fertilizing, removing insects, and topping, you can harvest after the leaves turn yellow.
And what I have in my hand is a bag of potato seeds.
I seriously suspect that the mayor, Thomas, is also a layman and was deceived by the grocery store owner with a bag of incorrectly written seeds.
Fortunately, I have the colonial system and directly turned potato seeds into special crops in the colonial system. Otherwise, I don’t know when I would be able to grow things.
The normal potato harvest period is eighty days, which is enough for me to starve to death more than twenty times.
The speculation that the system will transform the items I handle started when I made those simple foods.
A serving of potatoes is like a tasteless synthetic food, which makes people suspicious.
When it comes to cutting general-purpose stone, I believe this guess even more.
Obviously some of the rocks in my hand were sandstone, some were granite, and some were slate, but when I knocked them lightly in my hand, the cracked areas were all the same gray-white color, and not even a single impurity or sediment was found inside.
Slate is a dark metamorphic rock with fine layering that is characteristic of slate cleavage.
Granite is a very hard igneous rock.
Sandstone is deposited from ancient plants or shell materials.
The knowledge I learned in Glittering City was completely ineffective. The general-purpose stone made by my hands completely turned into another unfamiliar material, exuding a uniform gray-white color.
So this time, I also believe that the system will not be an exception.
Sure enough, I walked around there twice, pulled it with my hands at fixed intervals, took out a handful of seeds from the bag and sprinkled them in, then came to another place and performed the same operation. Before turning around each time
They would poke around on the ground with their feet to make sure every hole was covered with a thin layer of soil.
This process is not surprising, or even simply overdone, but in the eyes of Boss Dart, what he sees is not my style of painting.
He was sitting there watching the sowing, thinking that there might be a different kind of drink on today's menu.
The supply of bourbon, which was not selling well, has been exhausted. If he doesn't want to become a salesman of Dick's Winery, he has to find a way to get a new supply of wine.
If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible to ask Zach to buy it, but the cost will increase a bit.
But apart from Zach, only Huo An can do it. Importing wine into his hands may cost the cost of importing an elephant...
Suddenly, Boss Dart felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him.
But if you look closely, it's not the wind, but a person.
The young man named Marcus moved as fast as lightning and walked across the entire land waving his hands.
Every time he waved his hand, a small pit appeared on the ground, and some soil was filled in. At this time, his figure had come to another place, and the afterimage of his hand flashed again, creating a new pit.
.
At first glance, it seems that this person is acting recklessly and may not have any rules.
But if you take it seriously, you will find that the number of soil pits in each plot, the distance between them, the thickness of the soil cover, and the location of the footprints on the ground are all neatly displayed, just like copying and pasting!
