Chapter 414 Food Shelf Life
Fortunately, there are many vegetables that have a long shelf life. Shu Lingyi plans to ask Prime Minister Wang Wenwen to focus on planting these crops that have a long shelf life.
Among them, radishes, pumpkins, eggplants, tomatoes, potatoes, green peppers, onions, sweet potatoes, etc. have a relatively long shelf life and are not easy to deteriorate or moldy.
In addition to the problem with the game, the shelf life of these crops themselves is three to five days longer than on Blue Star.
[Yi Ling]: "Uncle Wang, these crops only take a short time to mature, so plant more now to prepare for the next solar term."
She contacted Prime Minister Wang in advance and sent some of the seeds she had that matched her needs.
She could only plant some crops on the land in front of her door, and the main force had to be experts in the profession like Wang Xiangguo.
[Wang Xiangguo who loves spiced chicken]: "I know this, don't worry, especially my mutated crops, they have a longer shelf life than normal ones!"
Wang Xiangguo now not only manages the 1,000 square meters of land in front of the house with his daughter Wang Wenwen, but also the 400 square meters of land opened up from Xin Jing.
Shu Lingyi also built a separate public granary there to make it easier for Prime Minister Wang to store things there.
The 400 square meters of land at Xin Jing's place are all dry fields, with 100 farmlands each from level one to level four.
The farmland in front of their house includes a paddy field that occupies 400 square meters, and the lowest rice variety is level two.
Therefore, among these 400 paddy fields, level 2 ones occupy half, and the remaining 100 are level 3 and 4 each.
In this way, basically all crops that can be grown can be planted. Out of advance consideration for disasters, Shu Lingyi hopes that Prime Minister Wang can give priority to planting ordinary crops.
Seeds are obtained through the produced mutant crops, and these seeds have outstanding abilities in terms of flood resistance, drought resistance and even cold resistance.
Such seeds are stored first and then planted when needed.
For example, during this solar term, it has been raining every day. If it continues like this, the only crops that can be planted are those that are resistant to flooding.
[Yi Ling]: "Okay, Uncle Wang, those waterlogging-resistant seeds in your hand can be planted in two days."
[Prime Minister Wang who loves spiced chicken]: "Okay, I'll plant it right after I harvest this batch."
Shu Lingyi did not continue to expand the field in front of her door, and kept it at the previous size, which was enough for her to use for her own planting.
She planted the few remaining pumpkin, carrot, cabbage seeds she had, as well as sage and mulberry seeds, which she would continue to use.
For example, Luo Zhiqing's one and a half mu of land was all used to grow cotton. If the first-level farmland could not be used to grow cotton, it would be used to grow flax.
Most people in the territory have more or less 30 to 50 square meters of farmland. Every time there is a harvest, Shu Lingyi can collect a lot of crops for free just by lying down.
If her granary is almost full of wheat or rice, she will let the cows grind them into flour.
Currently, Shu Lingyi has a storage capacity of nearly 500 kilograms of flour. Unfortunately, she lacks machines such as food drying boxes, otherwise she would process it together with Yun Bao.
A lot of noodles can be made. The dried noodles have a long shelf life and can be taken out and simply processed and eaten whenever you want to eat them.
It’s also a very good way to store food.
