Shi Man thought that it would be nice if she could eat the rice noodles made by Grandpa Xu every morning.
Shi Man thought about it and came up with a plan in her mind.
It was only seven o'clock after breakfast. Shi Man guessed that everyone might not have gotten up yet, so she went upstairs to check on the vegetables she had grown.
When she got to the top floor, she was pleasantly surprised to find that all the lettuces she had planted could now be harvested.
Generally speaking, if you grow lettuce, the yield per square meter is at most 2 to 3 kilograms, but the high-yield black soil is really amazing, the yield per square meter is directly tripled.
Shi Man reserved 20 square meters of black soil on the roof of his building. He first planted lettuce on 10 square meters, and the rest was used to plant tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, strawberries and other crops, and also sprinkled some seeds on them.
She also buried the remaining durian core from the last time she ate it in the soil. When she looked at it today, it had sprouted.
However, unlike lettuce, which grows quickly, it takes several months for durian to grow into a small tree. If you want to eat fresh durian, you have to wait.
But with black soil, nothing is impossible!
Shi Man rolled up her sleeves and started to work, picking the lettuce first.
Niu Nai also came over to join in the fun, but it was just there to play. In order to prevent the kitten from misusing Heitu as a litter box, Shi Man patted its butt and drove it away.
With 10 square meters of black soil, Shi Man was able to harvest 85 kilograms of lettuce. This output value is amazing!
After collecting most of the lettuces into the warehouse, Shi Man left 6 kilograms in a plastic bag and then carried the vegetables out.
It was almost 9 o'clock and everyone was up. Qi Hao and Meng Xiaodao were about to go out again and were about to say hello to Shi Man when they saw her coming out with a bag of vegetables.
"Ask Dr. Liu and the others to come over as well."
Shi Man looked at Meng Xiaodao again: "Are your grandparents feeling better?"
Meng Xiaodao nodded: "It's nothing now!"
Shi Man nodded and asked him to call the two old people down as well.
After everyone arrived, Shi Man put the dishes down and said, "Let's divide the dishes today and discuss some new arrangements."
Even men who don’t like vegetables will light up their eyes when they see fresh vegetables.
"Woo woo woo! Cai Cai! I haven't seen Cai in a long time!"
"It's divided per person, one pound per person." Shi Man handed the lettuce to Liu Lili and asked the little girl to divide it.
A pound of lettuce per person is not much, but vegetables are really scarce now.
The consequence of not eating vegetables for a long time is... easy constipation.
"Is it grown in black soil?" Doctor Liu was also very happy and asked curiously.
Shi Man did not hide the matter of the black soil. The fruit trees planted on the street green belts were all in black soil. The growth of the fruit trees was visibly rapid and could not be concealed at all.
Shi Man nodded. "As for lettuce, it only takes about ten days from planting to harvesting!"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Liu Lili was very excited: "Doesn't that mean that in the future, achieving free access to fruits and vegetables in our Pure Land is no longer a dream!"
Doctor Liu's thoughts went further, and he even looked at Shi Man with a condemning look: "Xiao Man, you actually used all this precious black soil for landscaping?"
Shi Man said calmly, "I can't help it. I feel uncomfortable all over if I don't eat fruit for a day."
Dr. Liu looked up at the sky and said, "Okay, the pure land is yours, you have reason to be willful."
But as the chief minister, he cannot be a flatterer.
"There are enough fruit trees planted along the greenway. If there's any remaining black soil, we can't waste it like this. It's better to use it to grow staple food."
"Let me think about how to plan..."
Dr. Liu started thinking again. There was so much to plan.
