These Crops Have All Seen Ghosts!
Treasure-Gathering Trading Company belongs to Zhou Wanwan; her trading companies now exist in almost every city.
Next, every town will have one.
Not only Treasure-Gathering Trading Company, but they even discovered food delivery services.
Everyone was shocked. "I didn't expect there to be takeout here! I have to try their takeout today!"
The caravan members went straight to the counter and ordered a lot of dishes, saying, "Please deliver these dishes to the Home Inn later."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Alright, please wait a moment, the dishes will be ready in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn."
As soon as the caravan members entered the inn, they saw the innkeeper carrying several dishes upstairs and saying:
"Sir, your sauerkraut fish, spicy blood curd, spicy crayfish, steamed sea bass, steamed scallops with garlic and vermicelli, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and hand-shredded cabbage have arrived."
The total is 300 coins, plus a pot of wine for you all. Please enjoy.
After the others left, the dozen or so caravan members laughed, "Damn, I thought we were going to go hungry again this time we came to the border, but I didn't expect that food delivery services have even opened here."
"This person must be someone important. Aren't the Great Qi and Great Xia at war?"
"I'll find someone to ask about the situation later. What exactly is going on? Could it be that our Yanmen Pass has already been occupied by the Great Qi?"
"My goodness! Could this be the Great Qi Kingdom already? Yes, only the Great Qi Kingdom has this capability."
Someone couldn't help but go downstairs and ask, "Hey buddy, can I ask you something? Is this the Great Qi or the Great Xia?"
The shopkeeper said helplessly, "Go take a look at the city lord's mansion! It's naturally the Great Xia."
The caravan leader patted his chest and said, "So that's how it is! Your goods are really cheap; I thought they would be very expensive!"
"Yes, in the city we visited before, there were several shops where things were ridiculously expensive."
The waiter chuckled, "Then you'll have to look for the sword shape at the entrance. If it's shaped like a sword, the item won't be expensive."
The caravan members nodded.
Yanmen Pass is becoming increasingly bustling, and Zhou Wanwan's estate has been almost completely cleared out.
She had people start watering the ground, and the tree people were working hard, their roots turning the ground over and over again.
The land here is indeed unsuitable for growing crops like rice and wheat.
Suitable for planting millet, sorghum, barley, shallots, turnips, yellow carrots, leeks, chicory, mustard greens, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
Sheep, goats, cattle, horses, donkeys, pigs, chickens, and ducks can be raised.
Most people grow these kinds of plants, but Zhou Wanwan is no ordinary person.
She thought for a moment and said:
"We grow wheat, rice, corn, cotton, soybeans, peanuts, rapeseed, sugarcane, tobacco, and all kinds of vegetables here."
I'll try again to see if ginseng can be grown here.
Shen Xiao was completely dumbfounded. "Master, are you kidding me?! How could these things possibly grow?"
Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said, "Let's give it a try. What if it works?"
Shen Xiao was speechless, and the surrounding soldiers exchanged bewildered glances. Didn't they know perfectly well whether these things could even be grown here?
They have lived here for generations; the whole place is sand.
But they didn't know how to tell Zhou Wanwan.
Shen Xiao looked at Qin Shan and said, "General Qin, you should go and persuade her! If she can't grow it, wouldn't that be a waste of time?"
General Qin looked at him calmly and said:
"Shen Xiao, you need to understand, she is the master, and we are all servants. We do what the master tells us to do."
We don't need to concern ourselves with this.
These people are still too inexperienced; they have no idea how formidable Zhou Wanwan is.
Zhou Wanwan Zhou Wanwan the seeds planted. Actually, she had already improved the soil here before that.
Actually, improving the soil here in real time is very simple. Just attach spiritual energy to the plants and burn them into ashes to improve the soil.
Zhou Wanwan had done something similar before.
The soil in Dongshan Prefecture isn't much better than here, but it can be improved gradually.
After planting the seeds, Zhou Wanwan began to accelerate their ripening.
She planted a lot of rice and had many fish fry thrown in, intending to cultivate rice-fish farming.
Rice-fish is very delicious, with tender meat, and the rice grown in this way is also more green and healthy.
Zhou Wanwan's spiritual power quickly spread throughout the manor, causing the plants to grow wildly.
In no time, it had grown to ten centimeters tall.
Zhou Wanwan looked at the land with satisfaction and said, "See! I told you the rice and wheat would grow, didn't I? Keep planting."
Those tree-men moved very quickly, and in one night they planted all the land with crops.
Zhou Wanwan's job is to induce births at farms, one farm at a time.
She had helped establish 10 farms today, and she was exhausted. She waved her hand and said, "We'll talk about the rest tomorrow! I'm just too tired."
Shuren nodded, and Zhou Wanwan went back to rest as well.
The next morning, Shen Xiao arrived at the manor and was completely dumbfounded. What was going on?
All the crops have grown.
Shen Xiao opened his mouth wide, speechless for a long time.
"These crops are unbelievable! They're growing so fast!"
"It sprouted yesterday and grew today! It's practically magic!"
Shen Xiao looked at them and said, "You're not allowed to say these things outside, understand?"
"We know, but even if we tell others, no one will believe us! This is absolutely terrifying!"
Shen Xiao looked at the crops and muttered, "Is this edible?"
Mu Qing came out and said, "Why can't we eat it? This is just normal farmed crop; of course we can eat it."
Shen Xiao looked at her and asked, "Mu Qing, how exactly did these things come to be?"
Mu Qing smiled faintly and said, "I don't know either. How could we possibly ask about our master's affairs? What are you all doing here?"
Shen Xiao said:
We're just taking a casual look!
We've been wondering too, how exactly do you grow rice and wheat in a place like this border region?
I used to think it was a fantasy, but now I'm seeing it for myself!
Now Zhou Wanwan sleeps during the day and goes to the farm at night. There are more and more farms here now, more than 200 in total.
Therefore, a lot of spiritual energy is consumed. Zhou Wanwan looked at the farm behind her, which was full of medicinal herbs.
There is a severe shortage of medicinal herbs here; the border region needs a large quantity of them.
Zhou Wanwan had many commonly used medicinal herbs planted, as well as ginseng.
All of Lingbao's whiskers were cut off and transplanted to the farm.
Zhou Wanwan was also quite curious whether ginseng could be grown in sandy soil.
She slowly nourished these ginseng roots with her spiritual power.
Then I saw those ginseng roots slowly grow and sprout.
Lingbao clapped his hands and said, "It has to be me! Look how promising my descendants are; they've all managed to sprout."
