Chapter 151: Growing potted plants, the village chief becomes suspicious

There are many kinds of potted plants, and Ye Zhen did not place them near his home, but instead placed them all in the back mountain.

This batch of potted leaves is not really intended to be used for cultivation, so there is no need to wait for them to grow naturally.

After the delivery man left, Dad Ye fiddled with a pot of red pomegranates curiously and asked:

"Is this the flowers and plants you plan to plant in the village?"

Ye Zhen nodded and shook his head: "It is these varieties, but these are needed for additional breeding."

Father Ye frowned slightly, a little puzzled: "It will take a long time before these can be divided into pots, right?"

He had also farmed before. It usually took several months for a seedling to grow, especially a potted plant like the one in front of him that was already a small tree. It would take even longer to reproduce it again. It was not easy for it to grow to the point where it could bear fruit. He had never heard of one that could grow up in just a few months.

Unless they were some fast-growing seedlings, but as far as he knew, the plants in front of him were not those.

Ye Zhen was well aware of Ye's father's worries. If it were the case in the past, she would definitely not be able to do it.

Didn't her skills improve further last night?

As long as she wants, these dwarf potted plants can not only produce a large area in minutes, but also be optimized and mutated, without having to get seeds as before.

The most important thing is that she can also control the direction of optimization!

Just give her a branch, or even a small sprout, and she will grow into a large piece immediately!

Ye Zhen stood with his hands on his hips proudly.

"Okay, okay, as long as you know what's going on, I'll go over to the building and take a look."

The foundation of the house has been laid and is dry. The ordered cement, sand, lime, steel bars, red bricks, etc. have all arrived.

In addition to the initial help, the specific projects later were all done by professional contracting teams, and some details still had to be controlled by Ye's father.

Ye Zhen doesn't know much about building a house, so these things can only be taken care of by Ye's father and others.

Now that Ye's father is gone, Ye Zhen is also busy.

Taking advantage of the fact that the villagers were busy with strawberries during this period and no one was nearby, she waved her hands and set up a formation around the potted plants on the ground. The surrounding light flickered and tiny golden runes flashed on it.

Looks mysterious and powerful!

After the formation was successful, Ye Zhen cleaned up the surrounding space. With a flash of inspiration, the weeds, gravel, dead branches and leaves on the ground were immediately piled aside.

The spiritual energy turned into a blade of light and slashed across the ground. Immediately, mud trenches about 20 centimeters thick appeared on the ground. His hands continued to cast spells, and after a few strokes, neat rows of mud trenches appeared.

Ye Zhen turned around and inserted the branches of the potted plants into the mud ditch one by one, revealing a little bit of buds. Then he waved his hand and a thin layer of soil covered the bottom of the branches and buds.

Although these potted plants come in a variety of varieties, each plant does not look like much when its branches and buds are buried in the ground.

Plant the same type of potted plants together, with flowers on one side and fruit trees on the other, forming a neat and standard grid planting area.

Ye Zhen performed a magic trick of turning spring breeze into rain, and instantly, a fine spiritual rain began to fall in this area.

The newly planted branches and buds were visibly sprouting and growing taller with the continuous nourishment of the spiritual rain.

The roots under the soil stretch downward little by little, and the buds exposed outside begin to grow taller and grow branches and green leaves.

Ye Zhen blinked and walked around observing with satisfaction. As expected, the spiritual rain had a huge effect on ordinary plants.

In order to make the potted plants more lively, Ye Zhen even buried a spirit stone extravagantly. It was too wasteful to use spirit crystals as the small plants in front of him could not use them.

In order to prevent the roots from failing to survive in the hands of the villagers, Ye Zhen mobilized his internal skills and injected the vitality of the spiritual roots into the formation.

It has grown to the size where it can be transplanted, so Ye Zhen continues to divide the buds and plant them. Soon, all the corners are planted with various potted plants.

The short fruit tree potted plants are beginning to bloom, and the flower potted plants are beginning to sprout new buds and form flower buds. Ye Zhen controls the plant status and maintains the original plant height.

By practicing the Planting Spirit Technique, various potted plants began to change.

The leaves of flower potted plants can be cultivated into new colors, and the fruits of fruit potted plants are not only ornamental but also delicious.

Ye Zhen picked a pomegranate. The skin was bright red and smooth, and it hung among the branches like small lanterns. The fruit was not big. After peeling off the skin, there were gem-like grains inside. He ate a few to taste. They were full of moisture and had small seeds.

Ye Zhen tasted every kind of fruit and continued to optimize the fruits that were not outstanding in appearance, determined to select fruit trees that were beautiful in appearance and tasted good.

Flower optimization is more convenient, Ye Zhen adjusts the transmission speed of the skills and the content of spiritual energy and vitality.

She cultivated all the colors she knew, more colors than a rainbow.

There are all kinds of colors, including pure colors and variegated colors. In addition to the colors, Ye Zhen also varied the shapes and sizes of the flowers.

In the future, if villagers want to grow potted plants, they only need to plant them within the spiritual energy range of the village. They will not take as long to grow as other seedlings, and will bloom and bear fruit all year round. However, it is not easy for outsiders to plant buds and pots outside the village.

This maintains the uniqueness of the village!

It’s really fun to cultivate this kind of potted plant. You never know what the flower in your hand will become in the next second.

Looking at the colorful flowers and potted fruit trees all over the ground, Ye Zhen felt a great sense of accomplishment.

The number and variety of these plants are enough to open a small plant exhibition.

When I got home, it was time to have lunch.

There were quite a few dishes on the table. Grandma Ye killed a rabbit, half of which was stewed and the other half was braised. The two old men in the family worked hard, so they needed to eat some meat and vegetables to replenish their body.

This morning, Brother Ye caught a grass carp in the pond and filmed it. He cut it into slices and added some sauerkraut, Sichuan peppercorns, and chili peppers to make a sauerkraut fish.

A dish of stir-fried spicy and sour lotus root slices, a dish of stir-fried sweet potato vines, and a dish of loofah soup.

The pickled fish is delicious and goes well with rice. Ye Zhen has already added two bowls of rice. After eating, he drinks some soup to ladle it all out, feeling extremely satisfied.

Ye Zhen praised loudly: "Mom, your cooking skills are getting better and better."

Mother Ye giggled and said modestly, "It's OK. It's delicious. Eat more."

"Mom! It's so delicious! My stomach is going to burst!" Little Brother Ye ate even more and his belly became rounder.

While praising Ye Ma, he continued to eat and couldn't stop.

Ye's mother couldn't bear to watch it, and said with disgust: "If you are full, don't force yourself to eat. This dish won't run away. Look at the way you eat it."

"Hey! Who made today's food so delicious?"

Little brother Ye didn't take it seriously. His mother's cooking sometimes depends on her mood. If she's in a good mood, the food will be good. If she's not in a good mood, the food can't be said to be bad, just mediocre.

While the family was eating, Ye Zhen reminded his father to go find the village chief later.

"The potted plants are ready. I have also grown the watermelon seedlings. However, if I want to plant potted plants, the village chief needs to organize people to wholesale some pots. They don't need to be too big, just ordinary sizes will do."

Father Ye nodded: "I'll go look for it later. The list of crops grown in the village should have been released."

"By the way, Dad, we don't need to plant watermelons in our fields. I have planted some seeds under the fruit trees in the back hills, so we don't have to waste other land."

Anyway, the back hill is full of fruit trees, so the space under the trees is empty anyway.

Ye Zhen couldn't stand waste, and happened to be raising seedlings, so he simply brought a handful of watermelon seeds to stimulate growth. He picked out some highly optimized seeds and scattered them on the back mountain. He planned to leave the rest of the seeds in the village and wait for the village chief to come and buy them.

At the same time, the village chief had just hung up the phone and looked thoughtful.

His wife was weaving a backpack, and seeing that the man was sitting there for a long time without saying anything, she couldn't help wondering:

"Who called you? What did you say?"

The village chief puffed on his cigarette and asked his wife:

"I remember what was the name of the person who came to Ye Minghai's house to buy vegetables?"

My wife looked puzzled: "Why are you asking this?" After thinking for a moment, she said, "I remember it's called Wanmao Supermarket. I went to see it at that time."

After all, the other party charged a high price at that time, and Ye Minghai's family made so much money by selling vegetables, who wouldn't be envious?

Then he asked, "What's wrong?"

The village chief sulked and said, "They came to me and said they wanted to lease our village's land and buy our strawberries and vegetables."

"Isn't this good? We have a fixed buyer, and they come to deliver the goods themselves without us having to pay for the postage, right?"

"That's the problem. If we lease the land, what will we plant when the time comes?" The village chief looked at the other party as if he was short-sighted.

My wife wasn't angry either, she wondered, "Wouldn't it be better if you didn't rent it?"

"I thought that there are a lot of wastelands in our village, and it would be a pity not to rent them out. At least I can earn some rent by growing more land."

He took another puff of cigarette, "I'm just afraid that migrant workers from outside the village will come back and see that they can earn money by farming in the village and want to learn how to do that, but they won't have any land."

"Why do I think you're bothered? The more land the better. How much does it cost to rent an acre of land? Why not plant more strawberries? Aren't we also going to plant watermelons and potted flowers? If there isn't enough land, it won't work. Just keep it!"

But my wife knows that one acre of land can only be rented out for a few hundred yuan a year, which can be earned back by a few kilograms of strawberries. She can't understand what the village chief is so worried about.

"That's true." The village chief also felt that he was overthinking.

"But what do you think the other party means? We used to purchase vegetables from Ye Minghai, so why do they want to collect vegetables from the village?" This kind of vegetable is so easy to grow, everyone can make a fortune.

Everyone has seen the dishes at Ye Minghai's house. Who wouldn't say they are good if they are close to him? The village chief knows the quality of their village very well!

Even the strawberries depend on others!

The village chief was self-aware and felt that the other party's words were unclear and he couldn't figure it out.

"Why don't you just ask Haizi and you'll know?" the old companion said.

The village chief thought about it and stood up and walked towards the Ye family.
