Chapter 135: Sending some farm officials

Qiao Lan didn't notice the mistake in the title. She took a sip of tea, touched the child's head, and glanced at Duan Mingchen.

Last year, Mr. He sent a letter saying that the capital city had not settled down yet and it was difficult to find Feiyan's family.

Maybe we have to wait until things are settled this year, maybe we won't be able to find him in the future, so let the old lady make preparations in advance.

Feiyan is taken care of by Wang and Duan Mingchen. Both Duan Mingchen and Wang will teach Feiyan how to read. Plus they spend time together at night. It stands to reason that Feiyan is young and should be closer to Wang, but this girl

Duan Mingchen is my favorite on weekdays.

Qiao Lan asked Duan Mingchen directly, and Duan Mingchen said that saving Feiyan at first was just out of a gentleman's duty, and then he just felt sorry for her and treated her like a neighbor's sister.

After hearing this, Qiao Lan didn't ask any more questions.

When children grow up, they will take care of everything.

-

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, spring has almost arrived in Tongzhou, and many green buds are popping up on the branches.

This year is another year of hard work! Qiao Lan was just thinking about working less on the land this year, working less and taking more courses to strengthen the country.

Then I heard news from the county government that the prefect would send several agricultural officials to learn farming from Qiao Lan.

This was something Qiao Lan didn't expect.

Forget about learning, why not send someone as an official?

Two oxcarts pulled a cart full of boxes and cages, as well as four or five middle-aged and elderly people with long beards.

The Duan family stood at the entrance of the village to greet him.

"This is Mrs. Duan!" the county government servant introduced enthusiastically.

Several old men and middle-aged people bowed their hands to Qiao Lan.

"These are agricultural officials from Tongzhou."

Qiao Lan saluted several people.

"I've met Madam Duan, and I've heard of Madam Duan for a long time." A middle-aged man with a majestic appearance and dark skin came forward and said.

He had long heard of this old lady's name in Tongzhou.

I thought she was an old farm woman who was good at farming and worked hard in the fields all day long. However, when I saw her, her skin was so fair that she didn't look like someone who had worked in the fields.

Just like the old lady who lives in the backyard of a deep house, she must have taken advantage of this recipe.

The others looked at Qiao Lan a few times, not quite convinced.

Qiao Lan didn't care what the people in front of her thought of her. She just said hello to a few people and then watched them go to the village. She could only lament that this year's lazy plan was ruined.

Duan Mingqing was also here today, accompanying several old men to the courtyard of the village. He originally thought that these people were sent by the prefect to keep an eye on their home, but he did not expect that they really looked like farmers working in the fields all day long.

The official is not the kind of person who hangs his book bag to gain fame.

Duan Mingchen helped a few people unload things from the bullock cart, and then secretly looked at what the people carried on the cart. In addition to farm tools, there were also many books.

The boxes and cages were piled higher and higher in the yard, and the rooms for several people were not divided properly. The oxcart was rented and had to be returned to others, so the boxes and cages could only be piled up in the yard temporarily.

"Sir, be careful!" the man suddenly said.

Duan Mingchen was carrying things across the dilapidated wooden gate of the small courtyard when he saw one of the middle-aged agricultural officials quickly holding on to several bags that were about to hit people.

Still quite agile.

Duan Mingqing read it and kept it in mind, planning to remind his family when he went back.

-

This year is not a very good one. The rain has not stopped since the beginning of spring, one after another.

The weeds on the roadside of the ravine are getting greener and greener, but there is not much food grown in this land.

Qiao Lan is not in a hurry to farm. She stays at home all day and takes classes on strengthening the country.

Last year's class on strengthening the country has ended, and the reward Qiao Lan chose was a pound of high-yielding and disease-resistant rice.

If Magistrate Cheng hadn't come to visit, Qiao Lan would have chosen potatoes. The conditions for growing potatoes are not harsh and do not require paddy fields. They can be grown in both north and south. They are resistant to drought and barrenness and can be eaten in a variety of ways. They are much better than rice and can make

Many people had enough to eat.

However, Tongzhou's attention came too early. If Qiao Lan made another potato, it would be hard to explain to others, so he would have to ask for rice.

Even if it is high-quality rice seed, Qiao Lan does not dare to plant it in an acre of land, which makes people see something strange.

The nine blends are mixed with the high-quality seeds provided by the system, and I only dare to give less, but dare not add more, for fear that the number harvested in the summer will be too high and cause a lot of trouble.

Fortunately, with the existence of Qiangguo Ke, everything can become reasonable.

The third course "Cultivation" for strengthening the country is online, and it is a longer course than the previous two courses combined.

Qiao Lan didn’t have a headache this time because the course lasted too long!

The main reason is that this course gives a practical introduction to the cultivation direction of various crops in nature.

Various plants in nature reproduce naturally according to their survival needs. They strive to grow up healthily and leave seeds to reproduce the next generation.

Whether the seeds are big enough to feed people, whether the fruits are sweet enough to make people feel delicious, these are not things that plants care about, but people specially cultivate plants to meet their own needs.

This lesson is about how to cultivate specifically.

Qiao Lan watched it for a few days and found it very profound. But for Melon, she could work hard.

-

The Duan family's rice seedlings started to grow after the Qingming Festival, and the rain stopped after the Qingming Festival.

The villagers were anxious about the food in the fields, but they started raising seedlings early. When the villagers planted rice seedlings all over the fields, the Duan family's rice seedlings started to sprout.

During this period, several agricultural officials came to the Duan family several times and asked Qiao Lan when he planned to farm. Although his expression changed a little when he saw Qiao Lan's unhurried look, he didn't say anything in the end and just looked at Duan's village.

The villagers went to farm.

Several people left the Duan family courtyard and walked to the field ridge. They saw that no one was around and complained.

"Other people's seedlings have taken root. The old lady only put water in the field. How can she look like someone who knows how to farm?"

"What you are saying is wrong. I see that the vegetables in Mrs. Duan's vegetable garden are growing very well. Mrs. Duan goes there to see them every day. Why doesn't she know how to farm?"

"What did she see? She just asked the villagers to water and fertilize diligently every day. If every family does this, why worry about the food in the fields not growing well?"

"Why are you so anxious? Just watch it. It's their fault that the Duan family's fields are not good, and it won't damage your family's food." One person advised.

Urgently, the Duan family's land is not good and their salary will not be short. It's just that the prefect sent them over to take a look and see the credibility of this fertile field recipe.

-

When the Duan family's rice seedlings were being planted one after another, Qiao Lan only showed up a few times in the morning, wandering around the fields and not doing much farm work.

On a sunny day, Qiao Lan asked Duan Mingqing to invite a beekeeper to Duan's house, raise bees not far away, and set up a beehive.

This operation made the agricultural officials even more stunned?

If you don’t look at the rice seedlings in the field, you won’t be doing your job properly by raising bees!

The descendants of the Duan family did not have so many worries. Duan Yujin happily asked Qiao Lan: "Grandma, after raising these bees, will there be any honey to eat?"

Qiao Lan nodded: "I'll make honey roasted chicken for you from now on!"

Duan Yujin was so happy after hearing this!

If you don’t work for food, the fun will be half as bad!
