Chapter 381 Convey
"But even then, there's a risk that the land will be flooded, and there's a high chance that all this work will be in vain."
In the past, when some people in China improved the saline-alkali land, they simply reduced the salt content in the soil. Although vegetables grew, many tumor-like things grew on the roots of the vegetables.
If the people here really planted it, they would most likely experience the same or even worse situation.
Ji Jingnan frowned: "So, the initial investment is particularly high?"
Song Chuman: "Yes, my family spent a lot of money on the oilcloth for the five mu of land. I believe that the price of oilcloth is high, even without me telling you."
Ordinary people cannot afford oilcloth.
If she hadn't been sure that her vegetables could be sold at a high price in the future and she could make back her investment.
Moreover, she can cheat with space water and mental power. She can use a lot of fresh water for watering every day, and she won't have to put in so much effort.
Ji Jingnan: "So, it would be better for them to do what you are doing now, growing a small amount of vegetables at home and keeping them for themselves, right?"
Song Chuman: "Yes, but I can't guarantee that they can grow it, especially those with particularly bad intentions. The Sea Goddess will definitely punish them."
If someone who is kind to her family really plants something at home, she can visit them and give them soil or seeds and add some spiritual energy.
But if someone who is not good to her family farms the land, she can only leave it to fate.
Ji Jingnan thought carefully for a moment and said, "I understand. I will convey your words to everyone."
Song Chuman smiled and said, "Sorry to bother you, brother Lizheng."
After that, she picked some small Chinese cabbages and gave them to him. "Brother Lizheng, these are for you. You can make soup or stir-fry them. They are delicious."
Ji Jingnan did not refuse. He thanked him and left the cave.
…
When Ji Jingnan returned to his yard, dozens of villagers were already waiting at the door.
When the villagers saw him coming back, they immediately surrounded him.
"Jilizheng, what did Aman say?"
“Can we all farm now?”
"Did she tell me any tricks or anything?"
"Will Aman be unwilling to let us plant it?"
…
Ji Jingnan likes quietness, and his face suddenly darkened when he heard everyone chattering and asking questions.
Seeing this, the villagers shut their mouths in embarrassment.
After everyone quieted down, Ji Jingnan briefly repeated what Song Chuman had said, "In short, she has never planted in the field before and is currently experimenting. However, the seeds she planted in the flowerpots were successful, and they are all edible. So she suggests that you plant them in the flowerpots according to her previous method first, and forget about planting in the field for now. Wait until she succeeds."
The villagers couldn't help but discuss it with their family and friends.
"What Aman said makes sense."
"Indeed, she has never planted anything in the fields, and I wouldn't dare to do it either."
"And she said she needed to use tarpaulin. We can't afford that at home. But growing it in a pot is easy."
"Aman and Ahuai are really strong. When I passed by their fields just now, they had already dug a very long drainage ditch. The men in my family don't have their strength. If they dug for so long, they would probably get sick from exhaustion."
"Yes, in recent years, the men haven't had much luck fishing at sea. At most, they can only do some housework at home. I guess they don't have much energy left. It's better to plant in pots."
"We can plant one or two pots at the beginning. If the planting in the pots fails, it will only waste a few seeds, which will reduce the loss."
