Or should we let it air dry for a few days and then dig it up after the rice rhizomes have rotted?

Feeling that he had come up with a good idea, Shu Miao decisively put on his backpack and went to visit the vegetable garden.

First, I harvested the beans, then went to the pumpkin patch and picked all the young pumpkins.

There's no way around it, since Lin Zhiqing, also known as "Mr. Lin," just loves tender pumpkins.

Although it is winter now and she cannot take it out, she can still keep it for him next year!

Anyway, she has no worries about where to store it.

The main reason is that "Mr. Lin" is too arrogant, and I don't have many things that he likes.

She had already put the chestnuts in her mouth a long time ago. If it weren't for the young pumpkin, she would have almost run out of salt.

After all, even if green leafy vegetables taste salty, you will still feel sick of them after eating them for a long time!

For example, vegetables with short growth cycles such as Chinese cabbage, water spinach, Chinese cabbage (cabbage seedlings that were thinned out because the seeds were sown too densely), radishes, mustard greens, Chinese cabbage sprouts, cowpeas, leeks, etc., she has a lot of them in her storage room.

Although the vegetable garden is still full of vitality at this moment, it is indeed very messy, and it is a bit disturbing to look at it for a long time.

The main reason is that she has eaten enough!

After thinking about it, she decided to replan the field.

After a moment's deliberation, she decisively selected the strongest plant from the Chinese cabbage, water spinach, Chinese cabbage, and mustard greens to keep as seeds, and harvested the rest.

A piece of land was cleared in an instant. Fortunately, it was next to a small rice field that had just been harvested. Although the area was still pitifully small, it was enough to plant the cotton seeds she had.

As for the ridiculous idea that I had vowed before to plant rice in the entire space, let’s not mention it.

After much planning, she still turned over the rice fields even though she had planned to wait until the roots rotted before cleaning them.

After working hard to dig out all the plant roots in the field, they piled them aside casually.

Plant the cotton seeds, each one carefully planted.

Her cotton-padded clothes next year depend on these seeds, so she has to be careful, right?

After finishing the work in the fields, Shu Miao didn't stay any longer and turned to leave the space.

He also picked up some dead branches and pretended that he was going up the mountain to collect firewood.

It was not until the next day that she found an opportunity to enter the space again, and was shocked to find that the dead leaves and old roots piled casually on the edge of the field had disappeared without a trace!

She knew her memory very well and there was no way she would forget something after dealing with it.

She quickly thought of the benefits of this feature and couldn't hide her excitement.

In that case, those old roots left in the ground yesterday might no longer need her to deal with them manually?

Shu Miao, filled with joy, once again sincerely thanked all the immortals. After calming his mind, he went to deal with the rice that had been dried in the wind all night.

With a light tap of the wooden stick, the grains fell to the ground. Seeing this, Shu Miao was not happy but shocked.

A thought involuntarily popped up in my mind: Can this millet still be used as seeds?

As soon as this thought came to mind, Shu Miao struck again with the wooden stick in his hand.

The dull thud of the wooden stick touching the grain, accompanied by a slight cracking sound, indirectly confirmed what she was thinking.

She lowered her eyes to look at the stick in her hand and swallowed hard.

Can she say she didn't try hard?

But she was unwilling to give up until she saw the rice with her own eyes. She quickly dropped the wooden stick and dug up the handful of rice that she had just picked.

When she saw the handful of white rice, she didn't know whether she should be happy because it would be easier to hull the rice in the future, or cry because she had wasted more than a month making the pestle and mortar.

If she had known that hulling rice was so convenient, wouldn't she have used the more than one month she wasted to study?

Maybe the certificate that symbolizes honor will be hers!

I really want to cry to death!

So Shu Miao decided to turn his grief and anger into motivation, waving his stick and turning all the millet into white rice. Then he drank two large bowls of white rice with tears in his eyes.

A month later, another batch of rice matured.

In order to ensure that this batch of rice could be successfully preserved for seeds, Shu Miao specifically consulted the aunt and learned the entire process of rice seed cultivation, from seedling cultivation to planting and harvesting, and then to seed preservation.

Harvest the rice again with full confidence.

However, when it came to the important drying step, out of caution, she divided the millet into several portions for experiments, and even kept a portion of fresh millet just in case.

After processing the rice, she immediately planted peanuts in the field. As for rice, she planned to wait until the sweet potatoes were harvested before planting it.

There is no way, if you want to make money you have to keep up with current events.

It's because her clients are so rich that they don't lack rice to eat, but they lack snacks to satisfy their hunger.

In order to earn that money and also to buy furniture for herself as soon as possible, she had to change her strategy.

Of course, food is still the main thing. After all, she needs to eat a lot of food every year. Otherwise, how can she maintain her great strength?

She replanned the one acre of land, using half to grow staple food and the other half to grow major cash crops.

Once she has enough staple food stored, she will consider using the land to grow cash crops, but that will not be possible in the short term.

Because the rice harvested from this piece of land is only more than 60 kilograms, it means that even if she plants all the land, the yield per mu will only be more than 600 kilograms.

Although this output cannot be compared with that of later generations, it is still acceptable.

God knows how shocked she was when she learned from her aunt that the rice yield per mu in the brigade's best paddy field that season was more than 500 kilograms?

Because she was mentally prepared, she was happy for a long time when she calculated that the yield of dry rice grown in the space was much higher than that of rice grown outside.

With comparison, you won’t feel so lost.
