Yang Dali smiled slightly, "I will lead my tribe back at midnight. To make up for the disaster I have brought to the people of the human race, I have something I want to give them before I leave. This thing is useless to my tribe, but it is extremely useful to the various fruit trees planted by the human race."
Jane Ning's eyes lit up, and she immediately thought that he was talking about sheep manure, which was really good for fruit trees. She knew that sheep manure was an organic fertilizer that could improve soil quality and promote the reproduction of soil microorganisms, but she was not very clear about the specific role these microorganisms played in the soil.
She didn't know, but Yang Dali knew. After he told Jane Ning, Jane Ning understood roughly that these microorganisms reproduced very quickly in the soil, so fast that they were invisible to the naked eye. After the microorganisms died, they left behind many tiny tubes in the soil, which increased the soil's air permeability, making the soil fluffy and soft, and locking in nutrients and moisture.
Moreover, sheep manure contains various active enzymes secreted by the alpaca's digestive tract, which can greatly increase the enzyme activity of the soil and improve the soil quality, thereby increasing production and efficiency.
only……
Jian Ning looked at Yang Dali and said, "That's fine, but uncle, you're leaving at midnight. Where are we going to get sheep manure? I heard from Uncle Lu earlier that it's been hard for ordinary people to survive these days. The grass roots and tree bark within a radius of dozens of miles have been dug up, and nine out of ten wealthy families in the city have also been wiped out. Ordinary people can't afford to raise sheep, so where will they get sheep manure?"
Yang Dali stroked his beard and smiled again, "That's why I asked Madam Ding just now if there is a space that can accommodate things."
"What uncle means..." Jane Ning still didn't quite understand. It's impossible for their tribe to excrete all the sheep manure in their lifetime in a short period of time, right?
Yang Dali did not keep the secret. After he told Jian Ning, Jian Ning understood that he wanted to use her Baicaojian as a transit hub, establish a secret passage between the two planes of the human race and the elves, and transport sheep manure directly here through the secret passage every day. From tomorrow on, the people only need to go to the mountain to pick up sheep manure. By then, the mountain will be full of it, and it can also be used in addition to fruit trees and crop fields.
"My tribe is the Ice Alpaca, different from ordinary alpacas of the human race. The fruits grown at that time will contain ice crystals and taste extremely sweet. Eating them regularly can relieve coughs and asthma."
Wow, Jane Ning thought to herself, isn't this a candied apple? It's simply too good to be true, but there's one thing she frowned on. "There's only barren hills for dozens of miles around, and no wild sheep. Where does the sheep manure come from? How can we answer the people's questions? This is a very troublesome matter."
"Haha, I've already said that my race is different from ordinary alpacas, and our sheep droppings are naturally different. As for how Madam Ding tells the people, that's none of my business. If Madam Ding doesn't want it, that's fine. Just pretend I never mentioned it."
"Yes, yes, yes!" Jian Ning said hurriedly, "I'll discuss the source with my husband later. Uncle, please cast a spell to open the passage between the two planes immediately. I won't take your things for nothing. How about I exchange two jars of spiritual spring water with you?"
"A gentleman's word is his bond!" Yang Dali's voice trembled with excitement, as if he was afraid that Jian Ning would go back on his word. "A promise cannot be reversed!" Jian Ning was also very straightforward.
"Add two more jars of wine."
"No problem, deal!"
Jian Ning immediately took out two five-jin jars of Yunshan Cui from the herb room, and used an empty wine jar to fill two jars of spiritual spring water and handed them to him. "Uncle, how long will it take to open the plane channel? Will it be troublesome?"
"This is easy to get." Yang Dali pulled off two strands of wool from his head, which instantly turned into a needle and a transparent white jade porcelain bowl. He first pricked his finger with the needle and dripped a drop of blood into the bowl. Jian Ning stretched out his hand without waiting for him to speak. The two drops of blood in the bowl did not merge at first. Jian Ning saw his lips move slightly, and in a moment the two drops of blood merged into one and condensed into a blood jade bead.
The blood jade beads were spinning in the bowl. Suddenly, Jane Ning felt a flash of red light before her eyes. Her eyebrows trembled slightly. She rubbed her eyebrows and asked, "Are you going to give me a flower ornament?"
She took the white jade porcelain bowl from Yang Dali's hand and looked at it in the mirror. There was a red dot between her eyebrows, which made her look particularly delicate, and the skin on her face seemed as smooth as cream.
"Wow, this has beauty benefits too! This is incredible!"
With a flick of his wrist, Yang Dali disappeared the white jade porcelain bowl in Jian Ning's hand. He stroked his beard and said calmly, "My Ice Alpaca clan is not just a name, and Madam Ding is pretty to begin with. This is just the icing on the cake."
What are you bragging about? They were forced by the Eldar to run to the human race. They are so bright when they get a little sunshine! Jian Ning rolled his eyes in his heart, but said, "Thank you, uncle. You really have great magical powers."
"I have something else to give to the people of this city as a token of my gratitude. Madam Ding will receive it soon."
"See you later, goodbye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared in a flash.
Is that it? Jian Ning touched her brow, feeling a little doubtful. She went to the yard where Ding Youtian and the others had almost finished planting. There were several big red lanterns hanging under the eaves of the yard, and Ding Youtian saw the flower ornament on her brow at a glance.
"Madam, why are you wearing all this makeup so late at night?" He noticed that her complexion looked better than usual. He was puzzled at first, but then he realized there was a reason for it and asked, "What happened? Where's Uncle Yang?"
He glanced sideways towards the cafeteria, but did not see Yang Dali.
"Yes, where did the old sheep head go? Could he have left?" Erlangzi also asked.
Jian Ning smiled and said, "Yes, he left. Before he left, he said that starting tomorrow, there will be sheep manure everywhere on the mountain, which will be perfect for fertilizing fruit trees and crops."
Ding Youtian and the other three were puzzled. Where did the sheep manure come from if the flock had all run away? Jian Ning said, "Don't forget he's a spirit. He naturally has his own way. But how do we explain it to the people? That's the most troublesome thing right now. Telling the truth will only cause panic among the people."
"My dear, do you have any ideas?"
Jian Ning naturally placed her hopes on Ding Youtian. After all, he was a very cunning man who always had unexpected ideas.
"Let me think..."
Ding Youtian tapped his forehead lightly, paced back and forth slowly in the yard, and glanced at Jian Ning's eyebrows again, "Got it!"
He stopped and said to Tong Bajin and Erlangzi, "Tomorrow, you two, along with Niu San and the others, will secretly pass on the message that the county magistrate's wife had a dream last night. In the dream, an immortal told her that the weather in Danyang County would return to normal starting this winter. The immortal, fearing she wouldn't believe him, placed a flower ornament between her eyebrows and said that blessings would be bestowed upon the people of the entire city. There's no need to say anything else. Afterwards, go check the mountain again. If you really do find sheep dung, spread the word quietly so that everyone knows."
Jian Ning thought about it and thought it was a good idea. Ancient people believed in ghosts and gods, so using immortals to let people regard sheep dung as a gift from heaven was the best idea.
Moreover, Lao Yangzi said that the dung of ice alpacas is different from that of ordinary sheep. She was really curious. Could it be that the dung of ice alpacas could be a flower?
