Dominate the ancient academy

Chapter 300 Emperor Jingming was so angry that he laughed

Shu Xiaoxiao was now happily moving all the seeds she bought at the dock to the academy. She went to find her master happily, smiling sweetly, "Master, can you help me take another half a month or a month off?"

Master Chu had just had two days of peace, but when his young disciple came back, he asked him to take a leave, and ask for a month's leave. This was simply against the will of heaven. He thought that this bastard didn't want to be his disciple anymore, and wanted to be his master. But judging from his attitude, he was not even worthy of being a master. He should just treat him as his ancestor and worship him.

He put down the half-empty teacup in his hand, and without even wiping the water off his hands, he spoke angrily, "Ye Xiao, do you still know your identity? You are a student. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you worship the master. It's ok to be lazy at ordinary times, but what do you want to do by asking for a month? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation today, the master will establish his authority today and let you know how to write the word "rules."

As he was about to go find the ruler, Master Chu was really a little angry. He had to discipline this apprentice. He had asked for leave before, but this time he asked for a month's leave. Did he think the academy was his? No, even if it was his, even if he didn't expect his little apprentice to take the imperial examination, he couldn't be so lazy!

As for how to harvest the things in the fields, my little apprentice just needs to ask for help. It may be ok for a day or two, but how about a month?

Shu Xiaoxiao saw that her master was angry and knew that the leave she had asked for was not long enough, but there was nothing she could do. There were many seeds she brought back this time that she did not recognize. Even if she recognized them, she would not know the specific time or season to sow them. She could only increase the activity of the seeds and plant a little of each. After the seeds germinated or grew bigger and could communicate, she would know the specific time to plant them.

In modern times, she is neither an expert in growing crops nor a student of agronomy. She needs to figure out many things bit by bit. The supermarkets she has visited in modern times cannot provide much help because supermarkets can basically provide plants for every season.

With the greenhouse, she can basically find whatever she wants to eat even in the winter when everything is withering. It has nothing to do with the season at all. If she didn't have the golden finger, it would definitely be more difficult, but even with the golden finger, she still needs to take it step by step.

She really couldn't do without watching, as the classes in the academy were packed and the two couldn't be done at the same time.

She also has to start preparing cucumber and tomato seeds, chili powder and other things, and even has to find someone to build the kang that was not built last year due to the cold weather. So there is a lot to do, and it's not that she is lazy.

"Look, these are the seeds I bought at the dock at a high price. I'm not sure what they are exactly, but I feel they are as good as sweet potatoes. They look so good to me, I must plant them." Shu Xiaoxiao pulled Director Chu outside to look at the truckload of seeds. There were so many that it might not be enough in a month.

"Master, you know that I grow things based on my feelings, and I can't leave it to others. What should I do if I don't ask for leave? Should I move these seeds to the library? Even if I want to, you probably won't agree."

Principal Chu: “….”

You've said everything, what else can I say?

"Are these really better than sweet potatoes? Are the yields higher than sweet potatoes?" asked Chief Chu hopefully.

Shu Xiaoxiao shrugged. "I really don't know. It hasn't been planted yet. I don't know the yield, but it feels good to me. It should be a crop with a relatively high yield."

Without mentioning anything else, just growing corn and peanuts will make you a lot of money. Although it is important to plant in spring and harvest in autumn, it is not even halfway through the year yet. With ginseng water, half of them should be able to survive. Besides, there are many crops that can be grown for two seasons. We can't wait until next spring, so we should try them all. It is best to grow two seasons, and the sooner we plant them, the sooner we can fill our stomachs.

Ordinary farmers didn't dare to start working on the new crops, and even if she wanted to give the seeds to the people at Sinongsi, her master probably wouldn't be happy about it.

Thinking of their actions, Shu Xiaoxiao could hardly control the primordial force in her body and wanted to laugh at them.

Everyone knows that sweet potatoes are very durable, and they can grow anywhere by digging a hole. After the sweet potato seedlings appeared, in addition to distributing them to the people, the Sino-Agricultural Department also took some, wanting to experiment to see if they could increase the yield, which would also make their Sino-Agricultural Department seem less useless.

As for the sweet potato seedlings, all the people in Daning gave them away, and they had no shortage of those that the Sinong Division asked for. As a result, they were quite capable of doing so, remembering what Shu Xiaoxiao said about applying fertilizers so that the crops would grow more lush.

They also felt that it made sense. People can only grow tall and strong if they eat well, and the same is true for crops! Their previous research route may have been wrong.

Now that they have found the problem, they must put it into practice! There happened to be sweet potato seedlings. If they take good care of them, it might be a good deed. But they think farmyard manure is too dirty, so they use other things. One by one, they start to use their wild imaginations, tea, sugar water, broth, salt water...any nutritious things they can think of, they try them all on the sweet potato seedlings!

With their determination to try everything, they successfully killed the sweet potato seedlings in Sinongsi.

Upon receiving the news, Emperor Jingming was speechless as he looked at the lush sweet potato leaves growing in the palace.

Shu Xiaoxiao said that sweet potatoes are vigorous and easy to grow. They can be grown in the most barren fields, even in sandy land, and the harvest is not too bad. At the very least, they are definitely much better than wheat, rice and other crops.

In order to verify what Master Ye said, he took care of the sweet potatoes in his palace himself. Apart from watering them every few days, he did nothing else. Sometimes he was too busy and forgot to water them, but there was no problem. Now they are growing lush and green. Now he is told that the sweet potato seedlings that were carefully cared for by the Sinong Division have died.

His mood was really indescribable, and he quickly sent people to check on the sweet potatoes grown by the people. If there was a problem, it would be a big problem.

The result is good, all over Daning! Not just one or two families, but all the families who planted sweet potatoes, even if they planted sweet potatoes in barren land, as long as they watered them diligently, they would be full of vitality, and the people were all looking forward to a good harvest.

As a result, the Ministry of Agriculture of their court killed the sweet potatoes that grew easily. Emperor Jingming was so angry that he laughed. What a bunch of useless people! No wonder there has been no progress in all these years. Not to mention that they are not as good as Lord Ye, even ordinary people are not as good as them. At least their sweet potatoes are growing well, right?
