Chapter 378 1 week (page 12)
In the blink of an eye, they had been in Yugui for a whole week. People were busy working at the construction site. Maybe Yang Yuyao got them some meat for every meal. Even if they only have a little bit for each meal, these craftsmen and laborers are full of energy. They even used their downtime at night to cultivate vegetable plots and plant seeds.
Compared to them, the vegetable field outside the portable wooden house was planted earlier, so it can be seen that the vegetable seeds sprouting in the field are actually vegetable seeds. Some plants that grow very fast, such as beans, can already see winding vines growing out, and they are beginning to try to climb the trellis that has been set up.
After planting bananas and sugar cane, you can already see that they are alive. The banana tree, which was not as tall as Yang Yuyao when he arrived, has now grown taller than He Qianqing. People who have never eaten bananas look at this tree for a while every day, looking forward to what kind of fruit it will bear. After all, the growth of this tree is really different from the pear, peach, apple, hawthorn, persimmon and other fruit trees in their impression. They can't imagine what a banana looks like.
The autumn rain at night was dripping on the banana leaves. Looking out from the window in the corridor, it could be seen that the banana tree that had grown to the second floor was shaking its huge leaves. Together with the night rain, it formed a white noise that induces sleep.
"Banana is long, somewhat curved, and usually yellow. And the banana tree is not a tree, it is actually a very tall grass." After returning to the room, Yang Yuyao gestured to He Qianqing and said.
"Xiao Yao, was there such a plant in the world you were in before?" He Qianqing guessed through Yang Yuyao's description.
"There is a plant with the same name, but I'm not sure if it's exactly the same. In that world, bananas were a mainstream fruit, with a sweet and soft taste, and a skin that was easy to peel. In addition, because it was rich in potassium, it had The beneficial trace elements of the human body can quickly replenish the energy consumed by the human body and relieve hunger." Yang Yuyao replied.
"It sounds like a very good fruit, but I still can't imagine what it looks like." He Qianqing said. Although he has experienced everywhere and seen many rare and rare treasures, bananas are a fruit that is cultivated in a small area. , he has never seen it.
"Maybe it's not necessarily the same thing as that world." Yang Yuyao said uncertainly. "It would be more certain if we could directly see the fruit. Speaking of which, in that world, bananas can bear fruit almost all year round in the right place. And the planting range is also extremely wide, with large areas planted in almost all tropical and subtropical areas. . Even if the production is not that high in this world and it has not spread to all parts of the world, there should still be ripe fruits this season."
In this world, because there are people like monks who can fly fast and long distances with their own strength, many things cannot be judged according to the world where Yang Yuyao originally lived. For example, crops. Monks can bring seeds of interesting and useful plants from all over the world for cultivation, but due to the poor agricultural technology level of mortals and the backwardness of transportation and preservation technologies, many good foods cannot be grown on a large scale to unleash their true strength. .
Only people like the Yang family, who have deep pockets, are willing to try new things, and have the connections, can have the opportunity to taste these special foods. In the General's Mansion, Yang Yuyao ate sweet potatoes that were used in desserts, and also tasted stir-fried lettuce and young pumpkins.
In the world where Yang Yuyao stayed, these vegetables and fruits were extremely common. In this world, even if they were grown in small quantities in the Xia Kingdom, they were so rare that they were taken seriously as rare ingredients. And the understanding of it is not deep enough.
For example, pumpkins are cooked as gourds, cucumbers and other melons by the chefs in the General's Palace, and they only cook tender pumpkins that are still green, because whether it is the cook in charge of cooking in the General's Palace or the people who grow pumpkins in the Xia Kingdom, I didn’t even know that pumpkin can be eaten when it is fully ripe, and it has a different flavor.
The world has become like this, and it must be inseparable from the existence of monks. The gap between monks and mortals is too huge, too huge to seem like the same species. For most monks, being able to travel so far away and bring back seeds of plants of interest does not mean that they really want to grow them, nor do they need to be able to grow them. This is like souvenirs and special snacks brought back from travel. Most people don't care how they are made.
The seeds brought back by these monks found their way into the hands of mortals, but the resources obtained by these farmers were pitifully divided between the immortal cultivators and the imperial power. With only one-third of an acre of land in hand, most people have no chance of trial and error.
There was only so much land, and so much energy, and those fields could produce just enough food to feed a family for a year and pay taxes. If you take the risk of trying to grow an exotic, unfamiliar crop, you won’t even know whether it will survive. Once planting fails and the farming season is missed, the whole family may be ruined.
Only those who are rich and have a surplus dare to say they are interested in trying planting. But most people with this condition have no planting experience.
In that world where there are no immortal cultivators, gods, demons and ghosts, countries, groups and individuals will introduce some animals and plants with economic value. Those who can do this must have a certain economic foundation and are closely related to the interests of the things they introduce. . Therefore, they are willing to spend a lot of money and time to explore and promote. But for the monks, apart from the novelty and taste, these ordinary products do not have any obvious value that is beneficial to them.
Those who have the ability and resources are not interested, and those who are interested have no resources and no chance to accumulate experience. This results in the difference between the introduction of these crops and the non-introduction of these crops. Like pearls covered in dust, gold submerged in sand and gravel buries their brilliance and prevents people from understanding their value.
Therefore, Yang Yuyao felt that it was necessary to spend some money to help promote agricultural planting technology. Otherwise, it would be a pity that there are so many valuable resources hidden in the family that can make people well fed and well fed, but they cannot be used effectively.
"Xiao Yao, since there is a possibility of fruiting at this time, how about we take some time to go to the place where local people gather in Yugui to have a look? Even if you may not see it in the market, you may also see it on the same tree that has not yet been picked. Fruit. It just so happens that the problem of zombie bugs has been completely solved." He Qianqing held his boy in his arms and smiled while kissing him.
"You won't be gone for a long time, right?" Yang Yuyao asked cautiously. If he really has free time, he just wants to stay in the room and not come out, but he feels that as a date, when he has free time, he should accompany his partner to play and fulfill the responsibilities of a partner.
"It's up to you, Xiaoyao. If you don't want to stay, just come back. You don't have to deliberately accommodate me." He Qianqing smiled after placing a kiss on Yang Yuyao's forehead.
The two evil cultivators who used zombie bugs to make stupor powder were recruited not long after Duan Yaoran took them away. These two people believed that this place was a perfect place for them to do evil because the sky was high and the emperor was far away. There were no sect forces around.
Although zombie bugs are likely to be widespread in most desolate forests in the world, their infectivity is not that high among these wild animals. In a relatively stable ecological environment, the number of large animals is limited.
Yang Yuyao and Li Fengzhi said that only animals as big as dogs can be infected with zombie bugs. This dog is not a small dog like Teddy Pomeranian. Rather, they are the most common medium-sized dogs with a shoulder height of more than forty centimeters. After all, in this world, there are basically dog breeds of this size. There are small dogs and large dogs, but they are extremely rare. Ordinary people keep dogs mainly for their functionality. Dogs that are too small to be purely pets are useless. Large dogs Can't afford it. Most ordinary people will never see such smaller or larger dog breeds.
