Chapter 7 Growing Potatoes(1/2)
On the trail in the forest, Xirona was riding a bicycle, gently stepped on her feet, and her feet were still moving. The bicycle automatically drove for hundreds of meters at a speed of 20-30 yards.
"It's really easy, this car is great."
Enjoying the scenery along the way, Sirona fell in love with this bicycle, and she had to admire Bulma, which was both satisfying and cycling without any effort, and only took one pair of legs a hundred kilometers.
"And that universal capsule, it's really amazing. Such a small bottle can actually hold a bicycle."
...........
Xiuhezhuang.
As soon as he got home, Situ Xiu went back to the house, closed the door, and did not allow anyone to come in.
"Universal Capsules, I actually touched the universal Capsules."
When Situ Xiu opened the universal capsule box, he picked up a universal capsule at will, looking a little excited.
This is something that only exists in the Dragon Ball world... No, be calm, I am too embarrassed to do so, after all, I am the fourth prince and a person with status.
Calm down, Situ Xiu adjusted his mindset. He swore that he would not be as excited as he did when he encountered any rare treasures in the future, but would treat them with a normal mind.
Then, pick out a capsule marked No. 1 and throw it out, with the pistol written on it.
"Bang!"
White smoke flashed, and a box appeared on the ground. The surface was very ordinary. He opened the box and saw a pistol placed inside.
“Pink…”
Situ Xiu twitched the corner of his mouth. The pistol was of normal size, but the color of his body was pink. This was a women's pistol.
Forget it, it's better than nothing.
Next, he studied the pistol, and the weight was just right in his hand, and the bullet could reach fifteen rounds. Adding to one bullet in the pistol, he could fire a total of sixteen shots.
"Try the power."
After getting the bullets, Situ Xiu looked around and found that it was difficult to test the gun in the house. He was worried that the bullets were too powerful and could destroy the house with one shot. After all, it was a pistol transmitted from Bulma.
Inside the courtyard.
By the pond, there are clear pond water, pavilions to enjoy the cool water, and there are several rockery on the opposite shore, with strange shapes.
"Bang!"
With a gunshot, Situ Xiu stood in the pavilion, aimed at one of the rockery on the other side and fired.
The huge sound alarmed the servants in Xiuhezhuang, and countless people looked in the direction of the gunfire.
Outside the courtyard, Eunuch Hai rushed to the door and two guards blocked his way.
"Father-in-law, Your Highness has ordered that no one will enter no matter what happens inside." said one of the guards.
Eunuch Hai frowned and said, "Who is your highness and in there?"
"Your Highness is the only one." said the guard.
Inside the courtyard.
There was a bullet piercing the rockery from the rockery and could be seen from the front and back. In the direction of the hole, the bullet hit another rockery.
"It's powerful. Now that I have the ability to protect myself, I'm not afraid even if I meet evil people."
Situ Xiu nodded secretly, the pistol had no recoil and it was easy to shoot, just like playing with a toy gun when he was a child.
After leaving the courtyard, I met Eunuch Hai and fooled him with a few words.
When he was about to return to his house, he remembered another thing and ordered: "Eunuch Hai, you have something to do, plow out all the thousand acres of fertile land and scatter the land."
"Yes, Your Highness." Eunuch Hai was confused and wanted to speak but stopped.
One day later.
Situ Xiu received agricultural products and plants, as well as planting techniques books and videos sent by Bulma.
With these things, he spent all day studying in his study. Based on the modern people's ideas, planting technology is not difficult. He planted according to the teachings in books and videos, and then actually operated it.
Time flies, a week later.
Thousands of acres of fertile land were all cultivated with the joint efforts of hundreds of people, and the land became soft after renovation, making it suitable for planting crops.
On the edge of the field, two women sat on the ground, and the slightly fat woman said, "I don't know what Your Highness thinks, I'll come to get the fields in January. It's so cold that people are so cold. What's the use of plowing fields in this season."
"Stop complaining, Your Highness should have his own ideas." said another thin woman.
"A child is just a little kid who is playing around and has never seen farmland in the palace. I think it's novel and fun, only you believe it." The slightly fat woman complained.
The thin woman looked nervous, looked around and whispered: "Don't talk nonsense. If this is heard by Your Highness, you will be executed and I will suffer."
The slightly fat woman curled her lips, her eyes turned, and changed the topic: "Will your house plow the fields at night?"
"Ah!" The thin woman was stunned for a moment.
At this time, a group of people came over from a distance, Situ Xiu was sitting on the sedan chair. The two of them immediately settled down. When the sedan chair came over, they saluted.
"Come here."
Situ Xiu waved his hand, and the two women immediately followed the team, with more than ten carriages in the long line.
Two women found that there were yellow blocks dragging on the carriage, and they didn't know what it was.
Ten minutes later.
Hundreds of villagers gathered together, including 38 men and 62 women, most of whom were middle-aged and a few were young.
"This is potato, commonly known as potato. I will teach you how to grow it later. You can learn from me."
Situ Xiu raised a piece of potato and signaled everyone to record the crop. He believed that the potato would soon be sought after by people.
A group of people looked at potatoes and felt novel because there were very few agricultural products in this world in ancient times, far less abundant than modern agricultural products in later generations.
Next, Situ Xiu walked into the field and taught the planting himself while explaining the potato planting techniques. The rest of the people gathered around to watch.
Xiao Shunzi followed with a basket, which contained sprouted potatoes. Whenever he planted one and asked for it again, he would hand it over one piece.
The cultivation of potatoes is not difficult, the process is very simple, and people with farming experience can learn it after reading it a few times.
Eunuch Hai himself didn't understand the cultivation technology, and he didn't understand where the fourth prince learned it. The rest looked at the fourth prince in shock. It was hard to imagine that the prince could farm and was so young.
When Eunuch Hai saw Situ Xiu laying a layer of straw on the ground of the potato planted, he couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Why should you lay straw when the Fourth Prince?"
"Prevent the potato seeds from freezing and causing rotten seeds, so you have to lay a piece of straw." Situ Xiu said lightly.
The temperature in winter is too low, and straw on the ground can keep warm, just like people need to wear cotton jackets.
In fact, you can use special agricultural film to keep warm, but that thing is too modern and not suitable for appearance.
He is waiting. If the effect of potatoes on the market is expected to be good, it will allow agricultural film to appear in this world and greenhouse planting.
As for the negative impacts caused by these agricultural products after the emergence of them, Situ Xiu never worried about them.
Because he is the fourth prince and the fourth son of the current empress.
In the country of the Great Sage, except for the Empress and the Heavenly King, I will be fined.
Keep warm!
Eunuch Hai was a little surprised and was very shocked. A nine-year-old child knew more than him, and he had lived in vain for so many years.
In the crowd, the villagers' eyes gradually became admiring. At first, they thought it was the fourth prince who was just making a fuss, but now when they think about it carefully, the fourth prince is really farming seriously.
.........
Half an hour later.
Hundreds of villagers started working and planted potatoes on a large scale, with a target of 200 acres of potatoes.
Because of the first planting, Situ Xiu personally supervised it, so he did not want the planting to fail and be ridiculed.
Eunuch Hai frowned and said, "Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, you have a noble status. We should go back early. If others know about this, you might even say something else."
"Eunuch Hai, do you know the frog in the well?" Situ Xiu smiled.
"I don't know." Eunuch Hai shook his head and said.
"There was a toad once, and what he saw was like this."
Situ Xiu bent his hands and made it into the size of a telescope, aimed it at Eunuch Hai, and then smiled and said, "Do you see the world very small? I am different. What I see is this blue sky, boundless."
“…………” Eunuch Hai.
"People with short vision see what they see before them. If you look at them a little longer, you will find that potatoes are a miracle."
Situ Xiu's eyes flashed, potatoes were a miracle and the beginning, and there were more and more agricultural products next.
Eunuch Hai frowned and insisted: "But you are the prince. The farming incident has been passed to the court, which is very bad for your reputation."
"It's okay if this prince doesn't want it. If I can change the world, my identity is comparable to that of the emperors of three countries."
Situ Xiu carried his hands on his back, looking into the distance, and his small figure said something with an unparalleled momentum.
For a moment, Eunuch Hai was shocked and looked very shocked. He took a deep breath, as if he had made up some determination.
