The person invited was named Lin Ashui, who was about the age of about 40. He was from Fuzhou Prefecture and had a wonderful painting skill, so he was summoned to work in the mountains. His family also had more than ten acres of land, and he had planted sweet potatoes when he was in his hometown.

Such people, Lian Man'er's family naturally stayed as guests of honor. First, they were entertained with good tea and water, and then Lian Shouxin asked Lin Ashui how to raise sweet potatoes and how to grow sweet potatoes.

Lian Man'er only has these dozens of kilograms of sweet potatoes in her hand. Although Lin Ashui said he could, in order to be safe, he still has to make sure that Lin Ashui really has this ability before he can take action.

Lin Ashui spoke in his hometown dialect, and even Man'er struggled to listen. Fortunately, they opened breakfast shops at some point, and people from all over the world and from all over the world, and they also have some understanding of the dialects in the south. Moreover, Lin Ashui spoke while gesturing, and even keeping faith was an experienced crop-like style. The so-called one-knowing one's tricks were known to all the tricks. After a while of running in, he could understand Lin Ashui's words.

Lian Shouxin also asked many questions and suggestions, and discussed with Lin Ashui how to cultivate sweet potato seedlings to be the most suitable. Lian Man'er also carefully put forward some suggestions based on his own memory. Finally, everyone finally agreed on a set of seedling cultivation plans.

The first is to soak the seeds. This is what Lian Man'er proposed. Soak the sweet potatoes in warm water at about 40 degrees Celsius for about ten minutes. Many crop varieties need to soak them in advance when they are cultivated. So no one found Lian Man's proposal strange.

There is no thermometer, but Lian Man'er knows that the skin of the human body is more than 30 degrees. He uses his hands to test the water temperature. In this season, he feels warm and not too hot, so the temperature is almost the same. When soaking the seeds, he must constantly turn the sweet potatoes so that the sweet potatoes can be heated evenly.

After soaking the seeds, the sweet potatoes are cut into pieces. This is very similar to the potatoes being cut into pieces to cultivate seedlings. About one or two sweet potatoes can be cut into four or five seed pieces.

Cutting pieces is a fine job. Only when Lian Shuixin and Lin Ashui do it, even Zhang can only watch it. There are special tools for cutting pieces. They are carefully stored by Lian Shuixin. It is a knife that is about the same width as the length of an inch. There is no hilt, but the side of the blunt mouth is embedded in the wooden block. The wood block is wrapped with coarse cloth and thick beef tendon, which is convenient for holding the knife. The knife's blade is very sharp. Even Shuixin is only used when cutting potato pieces to raise seedlings. It is usually packed to avoid anyone accidentally cutting it.

After cutting the seedlings, it is put into bed to raise seedlings. Lin Ashui said that most of them are open-air seedlings. However, in Sanshiliyingzi, the current climate is obviously much colder than in Fuzhou Prefecture. In this case, the seedlings will emerge later.

"Then how about we lay a seedling bed on the kang?" Lian Man'er said.

They have used the kang to dry peanuts, and many vegetable seeds were successfully germinated using the temperature of the kang. So, what's wrong with using the kang to make a seedling bed to cultivate sweet potato seedlings?

Lin Ashui was in Fuzhou Prefecture. There was no such thing as a kang. He came to the mountain for a few months and saw the various wonders of the kang. After thinking about it for a while, he said that this method should be fine.

"Okay, let's use the kang." Even Shouxin nodded.

Lian Shuixin nodded with a basis. Their potato seedling beds this year are laid on the ground in the house. This kind of seedlings emerges relatively slowly. Some families raise seedlings late, so some place them on the kang to raise seedlings. This kind of seedlings emerges quickly, but the temperature of the kang needs to be controlled. The kang needs to be burned several times a day, and people need to take good care of them.

Lian Shouxin is quite confident in mastering the temperature of the kang.

"It just so happened that the kang in our new house was just ready, and it was time to burn the fire to remove the moisture." Zhang said.

Finally, the seedling bed for the sweet potato seedlings was set on the newly-plastered kang. The sand used in the seedling bed was also picked with the finest and finest sand, and the poured fine manure was mixed as fertilizer.

Since the seedling bed was built, Zhang and Lian Man'er were responsible for burning the fire during the day. At night, Lian Shouxin simply slept in his new house, got up in the middle of the night to feed the yellow cattle, burn the kang, and take care of the seedling bed. There is no need to say such hardship. But thinking about the prospect of a thousand pounds per mu, even if it is harder and more tiring, the couple are willing to do it.

That day, until midnight, Lian Man'er got up at night to go to the cottage. Zhang was afraid that she would be scared, so he got up to be her company. Lian Man'er relieved her hands, and her sleepiness dissipated and suddenly had a whim.

"Mom," Lian Man'er said to Zhang, "Let's go to the new house in Miaotou to take a look."

"In the middle of the night, go back with me and go to bed honestly. If you want to see, let's watch it tomorrow morning." Zhang said.

"Mom, before you went to bed, you said, "I'm afraid my father would fall asleep in the new house, or something." Lian Man'er did not give up, but continued to lobby Zhang with a smile, "It won't take much time to go and take a look."

"Then, let's go and take a look?" Zhang was moved by Lian Man'er. She was really worried about Lian Shuxin.

"Well, let's go now." Lian Man'er said immediately.

The two of them went back to the room and put their clothes neatly. Lian Zhi'er woke up at this time. When Lian Man'er said she was going to the temple shop, she smiled and pointed at Lian Man'er.

"Oh, why do you always feel so energetic? It's the third update in the middle of the night."

Even though Lian Zhi'er said so, she got up and put on clothes and went with them.

"The moon is very bright, we don't even need to light the lanterns." After leaving the gate of the Lian family, Lian Man'er said.

The night sky is very clear. Although there is only one crescent moon, it can still illuminate the road under my mother and the other three. It is almost three o'clock in the morning, and everything in the village is silent. There is only a barking sound from a distance, which is very short and not shrill. It doesn't seem like I've discovered something, but it's like a dog roaring in the sweet and quiet sleep of a family.

The air at night is an extremely clean and cold. Crescent moon drags the shadows of the mother and daughter on the ground for a long time.

"Hehe." Lian Man'er only felt extremely calm and peaceful, and somehow she smiled.

"Man'er, why are you laughing?" Lian Zhier took Lian Man'er's hand and said something to her, and she also laughed.

"Don't laugh at both of you, we're in the middle of the night." Zhang said.

j"Let's arrive later, let's scare our father." Lian Man'er said to Lian Zhi'er.

Lian Zhi'er just laughed, but didn't speak. Lian Man'er thought that Lian Zhi'er wouldn't play pranks with her. If it were Xiao Qi, it would be different.

"Don't be naughty, your father doesn't know that we'll go. What should I do if I really scare him?" Zhang said angrily.

"I was having fun while talking, hehe." Lian Man'er smiled again.

Lian Man'er stopped talking, but just looked up at the sky. The sky without pollution seemed to have many stars, and the stars and moonlight were so beautiful that it was intoxicating.

When I arrived at the temple, across the official road, Lian Man'er saw candlelight in the new shop, and a wisp of smoke from the chimney on the roof was slowly rising into the night sky.

"It's a coincidence that my father must be burning the fire." Lian Man'er said.

Lian Man'er was right. Lian Shouxin heard the knock on the door, put down the firewood in his hand, opened the door and let them enter the room.

"What are you doing here at midnight?"

"Dad, my mother is afraid that you will not sleep well here, so she must come and have a look." Lian Man'er said deliberately.

"This kid." Zhang's face turned slightly red, "It's not that you are coming, but you are also choreographing your mother."

"What's wrong with sleeping?" Even Shouxin believed that Zhang was worried about him, so he came over in the middle of the night. "There was no more moisture on the kang, so I lay down at the end of the kang, which was exactly the same as at home."

"That's good. I'm afraid that the house will be very damp and you will get your waist broken." Zhang whispered, "Have you fed the cow? Why don't I go and feed it, you can rest."

"I will feed the cow first. After the fire is burned, I will be able to sleep until dawn." said Shouxin, "I have nothing to do, don't worry."

Left Zhang and Lian Shouxin burned the fire in the outer room while talking. Lian Man'er took a candlestick from the side and pulled Lian Zhier into the inner room.

Lian Man'er held the candlestick on the seedling bed and checked it little by little.

"Ah, it sprouts. The sweet potatoes sprouts." Lian Man'er shouted happily.

Once, Lian Man'er spoke and said sweet potatoes to sweet potatoes. In order to make a fuss, she said that sweet potatoes look like melons and grow in the ground, so they should be called sweet potatoes. In fact, in her previous life, she always called sweet potatoes sweet potatoes, but rarely called them the scientific name sweet potatoes.

No one was suspicious, but quickly accepted the name of sweet potato. Because the name of sweet potato has a more local flavor than sweet potatoes and is more in line with their living habits.

The branches hurried over, and then the candlelight could really see short potato sprouts appearing on the seedling bed. The potato sprouts were very small and had just emerged. If you didn't look carefully, you would really ignore them.

"It really sprouted." Lian Zhier said.

Zhang and Lian Shouxin heard it in the outer room and rushed in. They were also very happy to see the sweet potato sprouting.

"This is just the beginning," Lian Shouxin said after being happy, "This thing is more exhausting than potatoes. It can only be relaxed until the seedlings have grown."

"That's it," Zhang nodded with a smile, "It's not easy to be our farmer."

Even Man'er actually knows this truth. For example, it requires patience and technology to raise seedlings. Some families are both farmers, but some people cannot cultivate potato seedlings well. Every year when the potatoes are planted, there will be potato seedlings sold at the big market in Qingyang Town, which is very popular.

"Dad, mom, I'm happy because the sweet potatoes have sprouted now. Isn't that the method we used is correct?" Lian Man'er smiled.

"Well. Man'er is right. We are crossing the river by feeling the stones. These days, my heart is also being held. It sprouts now, and I finally didn't waste good things." Lian Shouxin said.

Sweet potatoes sprouted and leaves grew in a few days.

On that day, Lian Man'er had lunch in the shop and was about to check the growth of sweet potato seedlings when he heard a carriage outside.

"Oh, Manager Zhong, please come in the fast house."
