well!

They said they would give away two horses, but there were really only two horses!

Xue Zijin patted two ponies, which were not much bigger than donkeys.

I went back and said hello to everyone, then led the long motorcade towards Nanshan.

Put all the livestock and young animals into the newly built fence, and move the coal and pig iron into the col.

Xue Zijin gave each driver a few hundred coins before sending the convoy away.

"Girl! How are we going to raise these chickens, ducks, cows and sheep?"

Hong Xiu looked at the small animals pecking at the weeds in the fence and asked excitedly.

How to raise it?

Of course it’s free-range!

"Our Nanshan Mountain is so big, can't we just put them up the mountain?"

After Xue Zijin said this, he opened a big hole in the fence.

The chickens and ducks were the first to react and slithered out of the fence.

But they didn't run far, just pecking in the woods.

The cattle and sheep only looked up for a few glances and then went back to gnawing on their own weeds.

Hey!

People still don’t like to move the land!

Xue Zijin shrugged, turned back to the camp, and asked everyone who was building houses in full swing: "Which of you has experience in raising horses?"

Everyone stopped what they were doing, but no one said a word.

Horses are expensive animals, how can they afford them?

Xue Zijin also thought of this, so he stepped back and asked: "What about cattle and sheep? Who knows how to raise them?"

These are ordinary livestock, and someone should know how to raise them!

"Girl! I used to raise cows."

Old Li took two steps forward, his old face full of respect.

"Girl! I can also raise cows."

follow closely.

One after another, four or five more people stood up.

"good!"

If you know how to raise cattle, you should have no problem raising sheep.

Xue Zijin curled his lips and smiled, then handed over the cattle, sheep and horses on the mountainside to them.

Several people wanted to raise horses after hearing this.

Suddenly they looked at each other.

"Girl! Horses are very precious, and little people without experience may... hardly be able to take on big responsibilities!"

Old Man Li rubbed his hands in embarrassment. The girl trusted them so much. Logically speaking, they shouldn't shirk it.

But they didn't even know what the horse wanted to eat, so agreeing hastily would only delay the girl's business.

Xue Zijin smiled, raised his pink lips and said, "It's okay. I will ask Uncle Yu to come over later and explain the precautions for raising horses. If you don't understand, you can ask him."

The matter is finalized.

Xue Zijin asked Hongxiu to go back and invite her father, while she chose a few men with stronger arms to go with her to learn blacksmithing in the work shed in the mountain col.

Yes!

Even if these people have good arm strength and brains, it is impossible to get started immediately.

Xue Zijin asked them to start with the simplest sickle.

But one afternoon, they were so tired that they were sweating profusely, and they only hammered a piece of iron into a semi-bent shape.

Li Da rubbed his sore wrist, feeling that the initial complacency had long gone.

well!

Comparing one person to another is really infuriating!

The girl listened to the old blacksmith's instructions all afternoon and was able to quickly build an iron pot.

And I spent the whole afternoon playing, what the hell.

Li Da looked at the uneven semi-curved iron billet in his hand with disgust, and glanced at the large iron pot next to him that was being hammered and hammered to make it smooth and smooth.

Well!

The girl hasn't rested yet, so what right does he have to stop?

It is also.

Li Da picked up the hammer again and started banging.

Xue Zijin didn't look at how the people around him were fighting, he only focused on the big iron pot in his hand.

However, although she did not pay attention to Li Da and others, she also knew that she could not count on them in the short term.

The fact that I was able to make a big iron pot on the same day was also due to the farm tool forging record I bought in the system mall.

The essentials of blacksmithing have long been stored in her mind.

She just needs to gain proficiency.

"Humph! Now you know that those points were not wasted!" A mechanical voice that had not made a sound for a long time said: "Liu Yuan will be here after the New Year. Why don't you hurry up and get food to exchange points for buying secrets on the art of war and martial arts."

"I'm sorry if I didn't do it for you! I have to raise so many people, horses and cattle and sheep, so I really don't have any extra food to sell to you.

How about you lend me a secret book on the art of war and martial arts on credit, and I can pay you back when I have food in the future?"

System Zero-Nine: "..."

"Host! Can you be any more shameless?"

"Okay! Tomorrow I plan to give you wheat bran as food to keep you alive."

After successfully making System Zero Nine so angry that he shut himself down, the iron pot in Xue Zijin's hands was also done.

"Okay, everyone, let's take a rest! We'll have to pollinate the wheat later."

"Hey! Girl, go first, we'll hit it with a few more hammers."

Seeing that everyone was still competing with the iron billet, Xue Zijin smiled and walked out without saying anything more.

The wheat is heading now.

In the past few days, she planned to cultivate a batch of hybrid wheat seeds according to the method described in the book.

Wheat cross-breeding begins with the production of hybrids between two pure lines.

The two pure lines participating in the cross are called parents, one is used as the male parent and the other is used as the female parent.

Since wheat is a naturally self-pollinated crop, the entire hybridization process requires artificial assistance to complete.

First, select the ears on the female plant that have just been cut out about 3 cm, have not yet been pollinated, and are growing vigorously.

Remove the underdeveloped spikelets at the top, base and middle, cut off the middle and upper parts of the well-developed spikelets, and remove the 3 male stamens on each fertile spikelet.

This process is called emasculation. 2-3 days after emasculation, collect the flowering ears of the male parent, cut off the upper part of the glume, and scatter the pollen on the stigma of the female parent with the stamens removed.

in this way.

Seeds harvested from the female parent when mature are called hybrids.

Three days ago.

They have just emasculated the best two acres of wheat and will be pollinating it this afternoon.

Half an hour later.

Everyone dropped what they were doing.

For a while.

The wheat field was full of people.

When Wang Boliang came over in an oxcart, he saw that his good granddaughter and others were popping wheat ears in the wheat field.

"Lang... Master Lang... Xue... Miss Xue, this is... this is..."

Old Yu was so shocked that his tongue was tied and he couldn't speak clearly.

Xue Zijin, who was in the wheat field, turned around and saw the stunned two people in the bullock cart.

"Grandpa!"

She raised a bright smile and ran over with a handful of male wheat ears.

Wang Boliang looked at the handful of wheat ears in the girl's hand, and felt a throbbing pain in his heart.

"Jiaojiao... Just tell your family if you are short of food... How could you... How could you ruin the crops!"
