I do research in ancient times

Chapter 155

Before early summer arrived, Mozong's first batch of potatoes was about to be harvested.

The first one to ripen is naturally the system field in the valley.Although the harvest effect bonus is about to expire, the growth of potatoes has always been ideal because the water, soil and climate are very suitable.

The newly cultivated potato fields near Jiuling Lake are also growing very gratifyingly.

Although there is no perfect environment like the Niubei Valley, the potato seeds produced by the system are of excellent quality, and they are also blessed with Ningsawzi's special base fertilizer and seed fertilizer. Looking at a piece of emerald green makes people feel happy.

This is a good harvest that can already be expected.

Ning Sawzi was a little nervous during this time, and would call Zha Tong to chat with him when no one was around.

There is no other reason, and the first crops are about to be harvested.

This should have been a joyful event, but Ning Zazi felt unsteady and overwhelmed for no reason, and had a vague sense of foreboding, as if it was the eve of the announcement of the scumbag's grades.

He couldn't help himself to think wildly, after all, this was the first year of the Little Ice Age.During the Little Ice Age, the climate changed drastically, and there might be sudden disasters.The land has been planted for a season, and during this period of time, if God suddenly had moths, he would have nowhere to cry.

It's safe to be in the bag, it's safe to be in the bag, and it's just a step away!

There is a reason why Ning Sawzi was so nervous.

His main task this round is to harvest [-] catties of grain at the autumnal equinox. The normal yield per mu of modern potatoes is about [-] to [-] catties.

The potato planting cycle is short, and the requirements for soil and climate are relatively low. The potato seed given to the first binding person by the system is still of super high quality, which is why Ning Fei must plant potatoes first.

As long as the potatoes are planted this season, his main tasks can be completed in one wave, and the corn, rice, and wheat in the future can be used as icing on the cake, and there will be no production pressure.

Therefore, potatoes are still basic!It's insurance!It is the lifeline to keep his saw!

The construction project of Jiuling City is too big, and it involves the design of dams and the construction of factory buildings. These are not fields that Ning Fei is familiar with, so during this period of time he has used the mall points of side missions to exchange for design drawings.

Although design blueprints are much cheaper than technical blueprints, for a poor guy who has spent too many points on Zha Tong, it is still too heavy for his wallet.It's almost like emptying out once when you exchange one, and you don't mean to leave yourself a way out at all.

Ning Fei was betting that the amount of potatoes harvested in the first season would be able to complete the system task requirements.

He asked No. 8825995 about the scoring criteria for the main task, and Zha Tong said that there are two main criteria, the first is the harvest and the other is the amount of food in the system when it is settled.

The harvest amount is a rigid standard, and only the actual grain harvest under the leadership of the host is calculated.But the inventory is not so strict, it only depends on the inventory at the system settlement time.

That is to say, as long as the harvest reaches the passing line, the inventory saved until the autumnal equinox is easy to solve. Aunt Mei has been harvesting various grains, and the grains consumed during this period can be supplemented by external harvests.

During this time, Zha Tong was very well-behaved, especially when Ning Fei exchanged blueprints, his attitude could be called cautious and flattering.

Sometimes when I see my father in a good mood, No. 8825995 will play a piece of BGM for my father with a wink, to properly enhance the atmosphere.

There is no other reason, Zha Tong has a guilty conscience.

Ning Fei is one of the most capable hosts he has ever seen. Such a talented technical talent of Niu X has been struggling on the poverty line. It is all because of his youth and ignorance. If his father thinks about it, he will definitely be scolded.

Fortunately, Ning Fei is not a stingy person. Except for being angry when he learned the truth for the first time, he never turned over the old account of 8825995, which made him feel at ease.

So now, Zha Tong is really devoted to his father.Without Ning Fei's instructions, it will also consciously use the system's permission to collect some information to provide assistance to Ning Fei.

For example, tonight, Ning Fei was getting ready to sleep.

——8825995: Dad? !

Ning Fei was taken aback for a moment.

Without his call, Zha Tong seldom would take the initiative to go online, and his mood seemed a little agitated. What happened today?

Ning Fei: What's wrong?

——8825995: Dad, can't sleep today? In fact, when you can't sleep, it's best to find something to distract your attention or consume energy, such as running, doing aerobics, and doing farm work.

Ning Fei:? !

Ning Zazi frowned.

Zha Tong's speech in front of him was very fast, but he paused at the end, as if he was emphasizing something.

Do farm work?this time?

But Zha Tong is not someone who makes trouble for no reason and has nothing to do to tease him, it doesn't have the guts to do so.

This abnormality is more like wanting to remind him of something, but due to the system rules, he can't explain it clearly.

Ning Fei: So what is more suitable to consume energy?

——No. 8825995: Jogging, rope skipping, and aerobics are all recommended, Dad.Zha Tong chose a few soundtracks suitable for sports for Dad.

Then it suddenly started playing BGM.

——It rained all the time, and the atmosphere was not harmonious.Under the same roof, you gradually feel your heart changing.

——The cold icy rain slapped randomly on the face, and the warm tears mixed with the cold rain.The colors in front of you are suddenly covered up, and your shadow lingers around you mercilessly.

Ning Sawzi: ...

Ning Fei sat up from the kang, opened the glass window and looked at the sky.

There is no moon tonight, and the sky is dark without a single star.

Got it, it's going to rain.

And it's not raining for a short period of time, I'm afraid it will be heavy rain, or continuous rainy days.

His potatoes!

At this moment, Ning Fei's back suddenly felt a chill.

He said why he always felt unreliable recently, and he really came here for whatever he was afraid of. This damn little ice age is working hard!

If his potatoes were soaked in rainwater for a few days, most of them would rot in the ground, and the corn, rice, and wheat would be damaged in the next heavy rain. His main task would be difficult.

Holding back her shock, Ning Fei closed her eyes.

Ning Fei: Zha Tong, how long can I exercise?

——8825995: This depends on Dad’s physical fitness. I know Dad is very strong and powerful, so if Dad’s body is good enough, he can jog along the high place of Niubei Mountain. The meteorological conditions may be able to run until tomorrow, noon, noon!

Oh, it will rain tomorrow afternoon.

Ning Juzi nodded, got up and put on his clothes quickly.

He didn't say anything more, he knew that the system rules would stop monitoring the dialogue between him and Zha Tong all the time, otherwise Zha Tong would not have hinted at him in such a way.

In order to protect the slag system, he must not leave anything to the rules of the system.

Pretending to run around the yard twice, Ning saw the sky.

"The weather is good today, suitable for sports."

With that said, he ran all the way to the main building, picked up the hammer and rang the big bell in front of the building.

thump—

thump-thump-

The sound of the bell was the summoning order, which was so clear in the silent night that everyone ran out of the house in shock and quickly assembled towards the main building.

When they saw that the bell ringer was Juzi, everyone was a little nervous.This also included the intern weavers and the students of the academy, they all came out with the disciples of Mo Zong, and they all looked dazed because they didn't know.

But soon, everyone realized that something had happened.

Jizi tonight was very different from usual, there was no smile on her delicate and gentle face, it was full of dignity.

No one said anything, all eyes were on Ning Fei, waiting for Juzi to issue an order.

It was almost time for people to come, Ning Fei stood on the high platform and said condescendingly to everyone.

"I think the weather is good today, how about this, let's compete to collect potatoes."

Although the words were spoken easily, there was no trace of a smile on Juzi's face.

Seeing everyone's blank faces, Ning Fei added something expressionless.

"The left and right potatoes are almost grown. It's safer to put them in the warehouse as soon as possible. Early harvests and late harvests are harvested. It will be bad if wild boars rush in and cause harm."

Hearing what he said, many Mozong disciples immediately became a little nervous.

It's not that this kind of situation has never happened in the field before. A rice field near Jiuling Lake was trampled by wild boars washed down the mountain. mistake!

I don't know if it's because they almost starved to death before, but all Mozong members have a strong potato complex.It seems that regardless of the weather or soil quality, their potatoes must grow vigorously. Potatoes are the confidence to survive, and they are more careful about potato fields than other crops.

When it was said that potatoes were about to suffer a disaster, everyone was in a hurry.

"Yes, yes! Let's harvest the potatoes now! It would be a pity if so much food was wasted!"

"Well, wild boars are nothing. My old cold legs are very painful tonight, and I can't see the moon in the sky. I'm afraid it will rain tomorrow."

In the crowd, old man Liu suddenly sighed and said.

The words struck a chord immediately.A few old men and women with bad legs also started to talk about it. One person said that no one paid attention to it, but now several people said the same thing.

Ning Fei nodded, taking advantage of the situation to lead the topic in the direction of rain.

"Ah, it will be troublesome if it rains."

Ning Juzi sighed loudly.

"If it rains, the potatoes in the field will be easily damp and moldy. It's a pity for good food..."

Mozong people have a potato complex, so saying that will inevitably cause panic.

Sure enough, the next moment the crowd immediately became anxious.

"What? That's not acceptable! How can the potatoes we planted so hard be moldy! We must get them out quickly!"

"That's right! Anyway, there's nothing to do at night, so let's compete to collect potatoes and try to collect all the potatoes in the field!"

"Compare, who is afraid of whom! We are a group of people in the blacksmith workshop! We can't let others take the top spot!"

Mozong's disciples are all activists, so they stopped talking nonsense after they agreed, and immediately started working in groups.

The torches were lit, and the crowd gathered. Taking each workshop as a unit, the soldiers divided into two groups and quickly marched towards Jiuling Lake and Niubei Valley.

The weavers and students who came to study were also embarrassed to watch the excitement, and each formed a team to participate.There is no technical content in digging potatoes. After watching people do it a few times, you will understand the tricks and join the team of harvesting potatoes.

From the first shift to the third shift, no one wants to stop, and no one is ready to stop.

This night, Mo Zong's torches illuminated the dark sky, and stubbornly used the meager light to fight against the coming haze.

Carts of potatoes were pulled into Wubao and carefully stored in the granary.

The aunts and sisters in the dining room are busy cooking supper and breakfast, and the children are very sensible to help wash the vegetables, and then the teenagers put the warm meals into wooden barrels and give them to the people fighting in the fields.

The harvesting continued until noon the next day. When the last cart of potatoes was taken into the granary, the dark clouds in the sky were as thick as ink that could not be melted, and the wind became stronger and stronger.

"It is going to rain."

Old man Liu looked at the sky and murmured.

"This cloud, old man, I saw it many years ago..."

"I have to send someone to open all the drainage channels in Jiuling Lake, otherwise I'm afraid it will be flooded."
