126. Chapter 126 Wheat Transformation

    The rotation system does not matter to villages or small towns with small population density, but the land around the big cities is tense. In this way, it is equivalent to wasting land. Places like Silver Light City, Fallen Dragon Ridge, and Kingdom Capital import large amounts of food every month from other towns.

    The first step in using human and animal fat is to collect them first. This is why Roland decided to establish a public toilet as soon as possible. At the same time, it can also reduce the spread of disease and beautify the living environment. This is a multi-pronged approach. After the remaining batches of personnel were shipped, the toilet was almost completed. As for how to compost, how to cultivate the land, he decided to choose a group of experienced old farmers to teach separately in a few days. After all, the land is still in the stage of leveling and cleaning, and it will take at least a week to start farming.

    After finishing the work at hand, he decided to go to the back garden to see the experimental field of the Leaf.

    Since letting Leaf study various types of seed improvement, all the places where flowers can be planted in the garden have been planted with crops. She also, according to Roland’s suggestion, divided the flower pond into a number of blocks and numbered them to compare the developmental results of the two experimental crops.

    Roland just stepped into the yard and was blinded by a golden wheat.

    “His Royal Highness.”Seeing the prince, the Leaf, who was kneeling beside the flower pond, got up and gathered his ear and walked into the court.

    “Is this the result of your improvement?”He waved his hand and gestured to the other side without having to pay more. He walked over and excitedly picked up a heavy wheat ear and used his fingers to feel its full fruit.

    He had no idea what it would look like to grow wheat, but compared to the memory of a small farm in Kingdom Capital, the wheat ears were not only smaller than the ones in his hands, but also had a lot of particles.

    Leaf nodded. “I will make the wheat ears bigger, ripen the seeds, and then plant the new seeds into the flower pond to get the wheat ears.” ButRepeat this process, after repeated two or three rounds of sowing, it is difficult to grow large and long wheat ears. I don’t know why. ”

    Unfortunately, I can’t help in this regard, Roland thought. According to his poor and poor junior high school biology knowledge, probably because of self-contained defects? Rice is grown in the south, and wheat is far from the ground. In order to increase production, seeds are also bought. However, it can be used for two generations. A wheat can produce more than 130 seeds. The first seeds are modified by Leaf. Then the farmers can make their own seeds. You can use them at least. Two years.

    “This piece, why is it empty?”Roland noticed a flower bed with only a few dry straws.

    “I started to plant it there, maybe because it was planted too many times,” Leaf said. “I can grow fast if I cast magic power, but they will quickly wither away after removing the magic power. ”

    It seems that the magic power-modified plants continue to grow and still need land to supply nutrients, and some trace elements are still essential. Roland walked to the last flower bed. The shape of the wheat planted here was very strange. There were several clusters of blue wheat ears hanging on the straw of one arm, and several branches were stretched in the center of the stalk. The branches were covered with green leaves. Therefore, the size of each wheat is also relatively large, and only two plants are planted in the flower beds.

    This is the magic version of Roland’s trial of Leaf – the wheat tree.

    The direction he envisioned was to make wheat like a banana tree, bear fruit from the branches, and harvest it regularly every year, thus eliminating the trouble of planting the fields, growing more green leaves, improving photosynthesis, and reducing Land requirements. At present, the thick wheat straw and branches are slightly occupied, and only the wheat growing from the branches does not conform to the original idea. Or, let Leaf try to improve in the direction of the vine? Roland thought, after all, she hadn’t seen a real banana tree, and the grape is not a rare product in Greycastle. If there is a contrast, it should be easier to imitate.

    “The seeds of these three wheats cannot be used for sowing,” says Leaf. “I tried, and the wheat seeds could not germinate after they were planted. But it does repeat the results, and the wheat you see is already in the second batch. ”

    Being unable to germinate means that each wheat tree is unique and needs to be modified by the Leaf. The current planting value is not great. “You are doing very well, the variety of the barley ear is called Golden No. 1 I will leave an experimental field on the south bank of Scarlet Water River, surrounded by fences and partitions, and you will be able to ripen a batch of Golden No. as soon as possible. 1 , used for spring planting this year. ”Roland commanded, “As for the garden, I continue to use it to improve new varieties. I just came up with a lot of ideas. Not only the wheat crop, the grapes are also worth trying. ”

    Unfortunately, Leaf can only understand the characteristics of a crop from a macro level: such as many fruits, sweet taste, dense branches, etc…If she can understand the micro level, can she directly manipulate the genes and make subtle and precise adjustments? For example, plants can absorb light other than visible light—such as ultraviolet light, X-rays, and even ionizing radiation—for photosynthesis, directly producing energy storage materials such as starch, glucose, and sucrose, so that people can grow crops directly in the culture tank. .

    In the evening, Fourth Prince ignited a bonfire along the Scarlet Water River, causing Carter and personal guards to gather all the serfs. A pot of pot was transported to the place by citizen, and it was placed on a new simple clay stove to make a fire.

    The serfs looked at the new owner who was facing the bonfire and his figure was dragged out of the long shadow by the fire, and he lowered his head in horror. There are also some daring, still secretly looking at the prince from time to time.

    Roland stood in front of the campfire and announced his own regulations to more than a thousand people.

    “I am Roland Wimbledon, Greycastle Fourth Prince, Border Town feudal lord, and the owner of the Western Region’s!”

    “To bring you here, I want to tell you that it is your luck to be here!” As long as you work hard, you can get rid of your current identity and status! ”

    “Yes, I will give you a chance to get rid of slavery and become a free man!”

    The serf suddenly sounded awkward. What the free person means, these serfs are very clear – they can no longer be cruelly abused by their owners, no longer forced to endless farming, the crops produced in the field need not be turned over to the owner, their son and daughter Can also be separated from the identity of the serf.

    After waiting for a while, Roland continued to say: “From tomorrow, each of you will be assigned to a fixed land, and someone will guide you how to cultivate to harvest more wheat. In the first year, you can keep 30% of the harvest in the field and pay 70% to Border Town. The best harvest will be promoted to free person! ”

    “After becoming a free person, your family can be excused from slavery. It is up to you to decide whether to continue farming or to find other businesses in the town. If you choose to cultivate, 20% of the harvested food will be paid as a rent, and the remaining 80% will be controlled by you. In addition to earning a living, farmland has to return to feudal lord, and of course, there is no need to pay any food! ”

    When the words came out, there was only one breath of breathing on the scene. At this moment, I suddenly did not know who shouted. “His Royal Highness, are you all true?”

    “Of course,” Roland said in a word, “As a feudal lord, I never deceive my people.”

    “His Royal Highness,” someone could not help but whisper, and then the voice quickly became high, “long live His Highness the Prince !”

    A serf in the front row screamed with shouts, followed by a second person, a third person…

    Until the end of the field, the black pressure is on, and the voices are getting more and more, more and more. The voices of people eventually merge into the same rhythm, “His Royal Mercy!”Long live His Highness the Prince ! ”

    Ever since I got Echo, I don’t need to trust anymore, the prince thought.

    He clap his hands and tell the guard behind him, “Open the meal!”
