In the blink of an eye, June has arrived, and the weather has become extremely hot.

After wiping out the bandit "Wu Song", Wu Zongrui seldom showed up and stayed at home most of the time. His father Wu Shungui had already moved to live in a fenced house. Wu Shungui rarely came back. He probably thought that Wu Zongrui had to review his homework at home, so he stayed at home every day.

They had people deliver meals to Wu Zongrui and Liao Wenru. As for the Luo brothers, they continued to work with Wu Shungui and also went to the enclosed house to eat.

Wu Zongrui's life has become regular. After getting up every morning, he will practice martial arts with Liao Wenru, which lasts for about half an hour. After dark, he will jog around a fixed route to exercise. The running also lasts for half an hour.

I go to bed around 3:00 pm every day and get up at 9:00 pm, that is, I go to bed around 11 pm and get up at 6 am.

After noon every day, Wu Zongrui would take a short rest, about half an hour.

Regardless of wind or rain, Wu Zongrui will persevere.

As for Liao Wenru, he was used to this kind of life. When he was at Hanming Temple, his work and rest schedule was very fixed.

Almost no one disturbed Wu Zongrui. Wu Zongkun came back once during this period. Anyuan County has gradually stabilized, but the county magistrate has not yet arrived. After Wu Zongkun returned home, he was taken by Wu Zonglin to visit Wu Zongrui. This time Wu Zongkun's attitude

But he has really changed, and he respects Wu Zongrui very much.

According to the original arrangement, Wu Zongrui would set off for Nanchang Fucheng from the end of June to the beginning of July, and was expected to arrive at the end of July or the beginning of August to participate in the provincial examination to be held in early September.

People including Wu Shungui and Wu Shunfu have raised objections to Wu Zongrui's departure time, thinking that Wu Zongrui's departure time was too late. You should know that the students at home who are in slightly better conditions will arrive around April to May at the latest.

Nanchang Fucheng.

In fact, Wu Zongrui also wanted to leave early, but he would not leave when the corn was not yet mature.

Corn matures in mid-June and is ready for harvest.

"Zong Rui, the corn in our field is growing much better and cannot be compared with the corn in other fields. During this time, many people have been asking me if I have any tips."

"Dad, do you still remember the process of raising corn seedlings? At first, many people thought that our raising seedlings was boring. I am afraid that after this harvest, all the farmers in the Wu family will follow us and start raising seedlings."

"That's right. In the past four months, I don't know how many times I have gone to the fields to see the corns growing very well. They are completely different from the corns in other fields."

"Dad, the corns should be ripe soon. I have some free time today and will accompany you to the fields to have a look."

"Okay, but will it delay your homework review?"

"It's okay. When we were in social studies class, Mr. Zeng warned us to balance work with rest."

"Okay, let's go take a look now."

When passing by the fenced house, Wu Zongrui looked at the sociologist next to the fenced house. Just now he was talking nonsense. How could Mr. Zeng say anything about work and rest? However, his father Wu Shungui would never ask Mr. Zeng.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a large area of ​​corn appeared in front of us.

"Dad, no way, why are the growth rates of corn so different?"

"Yes, I was surprised. The difference is huge. Look at the corns in our field. They are all as tall as a person and have plump sticks. But look at the corns next to us. They are sparse. Many of them have no sticks at all.

"

Wu Zongrui was silent as he looked at the situation in front of him. He couldn't believe the huge difference in the fields.

The corn in my own field is densely packed, and the corn cobs can be seen at a glance. Some of the poles are yellow, which indicates that the corn has matured. However, the corn in the field next to it is sparse. There are too few corn cobs, and the harvest of one acre of corn is less.

It's pitiful, and the estimated output is probably less than half a stone.

This is the gap in planting technology. When maize seedlings were raised, all seeds were carefully selected, and the nutrient blocks also had enough fertilizer. There was plenty of farm fertilizer in the fields, not to mention the process of plowing. Wu Shungui was

It took about half a month to plow the ground three times.

Every step is in place, the field management is carried out in full compliance with the requirements, and the final harvest is just different.

The huge differences in the fields made Wu Zongrui think of rice. Unfortunately, there is no hybrid rice. Yuan Longping, the father of hybrid rice, would not be born for hundreds of years. Wu Zongkun knew nothing about this technology. Otherwise, he could use a small amount of fields to feed

More people.

"Dad, I estimate that in three to five days, the corns will be fully mature and ready for harvest."

"No, in the past we planted corn and harvested it in mid-July. By that time, the rice was almost mature. After harvesting the corn and rice, we could then harvest the soybeans."

"No, Dad, the planting method is different, and the harvest time can be advanced. You have seen some corns mature, so you better be prepared. I think the corn harvest will start around June 20th. Wenru and I will come then.

help."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

On the way home, Wu Shungui unconsciously followed the direction of the earth-walled house, but Wu Zongrui did not remind him.

"Dad, after the corn, rice and soybeans are harvested, you can take Luo Dianming, Luo Dianyong and Luo Dianzhao on a special trip to Yunnan. When I was at Hanming Temple, I heard Master Yuan say that potato cubes are called potatoes.

These crops are grown in many places in Yunnan. The yields are good and they can fill your stomach. You must buy some seeds and try planting them."

"Potato chips, what are they? I've never heard of them."

"If Master Jue Yuan hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known what potato cubes are. Master Jue Yuan said that potato cubes are sweet. If planted properly, the yield per acre can reach about ten shi."

Wu Shungui's body trembled, looked at Wu Zongrui, and spoke hesitantly.

"Zong Rui, did Master Jue Yuan really say that I have lived for decades and farmed all my life, but I have never heard of a grain yield that can reach ten shi."

"Dad, I also have some doubts, but who is Master Jue Yuan? How could he lie? After the grain in the fields is harvested, there won't be much going on. Just take Luo Dianming, Luo Dianyong and Luo Diazhao to Yunnan to see

Look, be sure to find potato cubes, buy some seeds, and ask people how they grow them."

"Zong Rui, don't you know how to grow potato tubers?"

"Master Jue Yuan said, but I have never seen potato cubes. I will write down the planting methods taught by Master Jue Yuan. If the planting season comes and I haven't returned home, you can plant them according to the methods I wrote."

"Yes, but I can't read."

"Don't worry, I will pay a special visit to Mr. Zeng, and Mr. Zeng will teach you how to grow potato tubers."

Finally we reached the front of the house with mud walls.

Wu Shungui looked at the earth-walled house in front of him and suddenly spoke.

"Zong Rui, I really want to come back and live here. It's much more comfortable. There are more residents in the enclosed house and it's not so casual. But I think you have to review your homework, so I don't want to disturb you."

"Dad, it's better for you to live in a fenced house. There have been disasters everywhere in recent years. Many farmers have no food to eat. I heard a few days ago that bandits appeared in Jiangshan Township. Our Wu family may also

If you are robbed by bandits and you live in the enclosed house, you don’t have to worry because the bandits don’t have the guts to attack the enclosed house yet.”

"That's right. It's safer for me to live in a fenced house."

"Dad, why don't you go inside and sit down?"

"No, I've wasted a lot of your time. You also have to study your lessons. I'll have the food delivered to you later."

Liao Wenru walked out of the house, saw Wu Shungui, and saluted quickly.

"Uncle, you are here."

"Wen Ru, please take good care of Zong Rui."

"Uncle, don't worry, I will always be with the young master."

Wu Shungui did not enter the house, but turned around and left.

"Brother, I have been to the fields to see them many times. The corns are growing really well."

"I know. I just went to see it. I used to run every night and didn't notice it. Wenru, get ready. In a few days, the corn will be harvested. After the corn is harvested, we will also leave for Nanchang Fucheng.

Already."

"Brother, I'm a little worried."

"worry about what."

"I have so much money at home. If I can't take it with me, where will I put it then?"

Wu Zongrui let out a long sigh.

"I have been thinking about this matter. Southwest Horse can still transport a lot of silver, but it is too conspicuous on the road. By the way, during this time, I want you to find out where there is a gold exchange. Have you asked?

"

Liao Wenru shook his head repeatedly, with a look of helplessness on his face.

"Not at all. Many people have never seen gold in their lives, let alone how to exchange it."

Wu Zongrui also looked helpless. Anyuan County is a lower county, not a wealthy place. There are very few people who have seen gold. It is absolutely impossible to exchange so much gold at once. Besides, even if someone is willing to take it,

With so much gold, Wu Zongrui didn't have the guts to exchange it. The so-called wealth should not be exposed.

Wu Zongrui will never touch the package left by Master Jue Yuan, because those things belong to Liao Wenru. When appropriate, Wu Zongrui will inform Liao Wenru of all the circumstances.

It seems that the final choice is to find a safe place, bury the silver, and dig it out when you come back.

Wu Zongrui would never give such a large amount of silver to his father Wu Shungui, which would make Wu Shungui confused and unable to withstand such great pressure.

Going to Nanchang Prefecture to take the Provincial Examination, it is enough to bring 150 taels of silver. Taking the Provincial Examination is nothing more than accommodation and food expenses. For three months from July to early October, the average monthly cost is 50 taels of silver. Wu Zongrui

He and Liao Wenru couldn't run out of food and wine even after a meal.
