Chapter 101: Ma's Farm

Ma Chaoxin walked in front, flanked by two little beauties with their own merits.

One is naturally Ma Chao's personal slave Yun'er, while the other is Cai Yan, who has not shown up for a long time.

Since Ma Chao accidentally took away Cai Yan's first kiss last time, Cai Yan has rarely taken the initiative to meet Ma Chao, and even if he did, he hurried by saying hello. This time, Ma Chao was cheeky and called her over from Cai Yong, saying that he asked her to accompany him to see the new crops.

Cai Yan didn't want to go, but he couldn't stand Ma Chao's coaxing, so he had no choice but to come with him. It's just that along the way, he still looks left and right, and he doesn't want to look at Ma Chao at all.

After arriving at Ma's Farm, Cai Yan found that this place was very different from other farmlands, not only built stone walls around it, but also had three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and the precautions were very strict. And looking at the eyes of those soldiers, it can also be seen that those are veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time, and their military literacy and protection ability are all the best choice.

"Brother Super, what kind of exotic flowers and plants are planted here that make you so well-guarded?" Cai Yan couldn't resist the temptation and couldn't help asking.

But Ma Chao just smiled and said mysteriously: "You'll know when you enter." ”

Cai Yan looked very approving when he heard this, and Yun'er on the side began to tremble: "Young master, the slave and maid should not go in, so as not to see something that should not be seen, and then the young master will kill the slave and the maid again......"

As soon as these words came out, Ma Chao's face was full of black lines, and Cai Yan also asked in horror: "Brother Chao, did you want to kill her?" ”

"I really want to kill her now...... I can't even speak. If I really wanted to kill her, how could she still be with us at this time? ”

"Oh" Cai Yan and Yun'er nodded at the same time, but this nod didn't mean the same thing: Cai Yan was just an expression of approval and agreement, while Yun'er was the kind of luck that escaped again......

Ma Chao glared at Yun'er again, and walked into the gate of the farm with his legs raised.

After entering the door, the three of them saw that there was only a few plots of land on this farm, and the rest of the fields had been ploughed, and it seemed that they were going to keep it for next year's cultivation.

And in those few places, countless unknown crops are growing well, and they are verdant. Some of the old farmers were tending to the crops that had already sprouted, and they seemed to be very serious.

After getting closer, Cai Yan suddenly discovered that she didn't know any of these crops. Although Cai Yan is also the daughter of the great lord of the scholar clan, she has traveled with her father since she was a child, and she still knows a lot about cereals and grain crops. But right now, she is in trouble.

And Ma Chao, at this time, was squatting on the ground affectionately, carefully stroking the unknown crop. Looking at his eyes, it seemed to be a little more eager than looking at Cai Yan and Yun'er.

"Brother Super, what is this crop? Why has Yan'er never seen it? Although it was Cai Yan who inquired out loud, Yun'er's puzzled eyes also expressed the same meaning.

Ma Chao didn't seem to hear Cai Yan's question at this time, and was still looking at the potato plant intently. At present, these potato seedlings are growing very well, and they have grown to more than half a foot tall in more than half a month, and the leaves are verdant and dense, covering the entire branch and stem. It happened to be a light rain last night, and the occasional drop of rain leaked down and splashed on the surface of the leaves, and when the green leaves fell down, the remaining rain slid down the leaves, and disappeared into a thick shade. This kind of beauty really makes Ma Chao a little obsessed.

In this way, it seems that during the half month that I did not come often, these crops were well cared for. It seems that the old peasants selected by the ugly brother from the slave market are indeed good at tending to the crops. Loosening the soil, watering, catching insects, fertilizing, etc., it seems that everything is done well.

Ma Chao planned that when these new crops grow, they will all be made into seeds, and after a year, these crops can grow all over the farm. At that time, I must have planned the land of Fufeng County, and I will be able to vigorously promote these crops at that time. Fufeng County will be built into a new crop demonstration county in the late Han Dynasty, so that all the people in the late Han Dynasty can taste the crops after a thousand years, not only so that the people in the late Han Dynasty will no longer have the risk of starvation, but also increase and enrich their dining tables.

And Ma Chao is more confident that with his new crops, he can also create a one-stop model for the production and sales of new crops in Dahan. At that time, the people of the late Han Dynasty will benefit, and they will be even more wealthy.

When Ma Chao was drooling and fantasizing that there would be no famine for the Han farmers in the future, a stout man staggered to Ma Chao's side, seemingly to serve these crops, seeing Ma Chao dressed in brocade, accompanied by two little beauties like fairies around him, he also knew that Ma Chao's identity must not be low, so he didn't dare to disturb, and stood quietly next to him and waited for Ma Chao to come back to his senses.

But Cai Yan saw the old farmer, and stretched out his hand to push Ma Chao. After Ma Chao came back to his senses, he seemed to hear Cai Yan ask him something in a daze, but he didn't hear it clearly, so he said to Cai Yan: "Yan'er, what did you ask me just now?" ”

"I'm asking, what kind of crops are these, and why have I never seen them?" Cai Yan pouted angrily: Regardless of modern times, women of any era, for those men who ignore them, they are all this virtue.

"Hey, the little fairy doesn't know anything. These crops, don't say that you have never been in the field, even the old man has cultivated crops for decades, and he has never seen such a crop, only the old man knows the wheat, but those wheat are too good, as if they have been applied to the immortal law......" The old farmer said while loosening the soil for the potatoes.

Ma Chao found it interesting, so he said: "The old man doesn't know, those wheat, but winter wheat, is wheat that can survive the winter." Have you ever wondered what it means for Fufeng County to have wheat that can survive the winter? ”

"What? That's impossible?! The old man was a little angry, and said angrily: "The old man has been planting crops for several years, and he has never seen a crop that can survive the winter." If the wheat survives this winter, the old man will eat it! ”

"Do you know what you're dealing with now?" Ma Chao did not fight with the old farmer at all, after all, it is difficult for people to accept products that transcend an era when they have no curative effect.

"The old farmer doesn't know, he only knows that it is the fairy grass that the little master of Fufeng County let him cultivate." The old farmer shook his head, his face was unwilling, and he muttered: "The old farmer has been planting crops for decades, and he has never seen such a crop...... Didn't the little master be deceived? ”

"Old man, this is not a fairy grass, but it is definitely several times more useful than fairy grass!" Ma Chao is a village and town leader, is showing off to those hillbillies who have never seen the world: "You don't know, this is a new food crop, this thing is called potatoes, through the sand, dry land grows, and the yield per mu is amazing, I heard that this thing in the territory of the mu yield has reached an astonishing fifteen stones, and resistant to storage, after harvesting, as long as the storage is properly put in the next year is not bad, suitable for vegetables and grain, even if the poor do not eat food, only eat potatoes can survive." Now you understand why the little master attaches so much importance to these crops, right? ”

After Ma Chao finished speaking, he found that there was no response, and when he looked up, he saw that the old farmer had his mouth open, his eyes did not have any focus, and the whole person was completely in a state of fugue. Ma Chao smiled secretly, and when he looked back, Cai Yan and Yun'er, the two little beauties, were not much better than the old farmers.

After a long time, the old farmer reacted and asked hesitantly, "How do you know so clearly?" ”

"Because, I am what you call the 'little master'." Ma Chao smiled and replied enchantingly.
