On the tenth year of the natural disaster, I went to farm with me

"Sister Qing." Yu Shou greeted Xia Qing first.

"Sister Qing."

Zhang Hongda, who was following Yue Haiying, greeted him and then bowed respectfully to Xia Qing.

He could not reveal his identity or salute, and could only express his gratitude by bowing.

Zhang Hongda was poisoned, causing extensive damage to his skin. He bowed very slowly. His voice was low and he lacked confidence. He probably had to rely on Yu Shou to carry him after leaving the territory.

Fearing that someone might be watching from a distance, Xia Qing just nodded at him, handed the seeds to Yue Haiying, and gave him a routine instruction, "Use a telescope to carefully check the danger zone every two hours. If you find anything abnormal, report it immediately. Be sure to wear protective clothing when you leave the bear cave."

"I understand." Yue Haiying stuffed the seeds into the bag.

The conditions in the hidden valley were unique. The lords of the alliance not only grew rice seedlings and sweet potato seedlings in it, but also reserved space for growing other green light vegetable seedlings in each territory. Xia Qing gave Yue Haiying a bag of vegetable seeds so that he could help her grow seedlings in the valley.

Once the seedlings have safely survived the rainy season and have been transplanted into the territory, their spring-sown vegetables will be available on the market ten days earlier than in other territories and can be sold at a good price.

Not only these green light seedlings, after the base distributes the Gaoyi elemental green light spinach seeds, the lords of the territory alliance will also plant some of the seeds in the valley.

Although there is no high-nutrient soil in the valley, there is silt protection during rainy season, which can ensure that the quality of spinach will not be reduced due to excessive nutrient content during the rainy season.

After watching the three people slowly walk away, Xia Qing returned to the territory, ate two strawberries to clear his mind, then carried a shovel and a large backpack to go and open up the wasteland.

After the first rain, Xia Qing will plant two acres of yellow light rice, half an acre of green light rice, one acre of green light wheat, half an acre of green light soybeans, half an acre of green light corn, half an acre of green light mung beans, half an acre of green light cotton and half an acre of yellow light sunflowers in the arable land, totaling 6 acres.

Last year, Xia Qing reclaimed a total of 5 acres of arable land, 1.7 acres of hillside terraces and 2 acres of greenhouses.

Although they grow sparsely, 2 mu of yellow light wheat and 1 mu of yellow light rapeseed still occupy such a large area. In addition to these two crops, 0.5 mu of green light wheat is also planted in Xia Qingtian, so only 1.5 mu of arable land is empty, and at least 4.5 mu of land needs to be reclaimed in these few days.

When planting crops during years of natural disasters, one must not only prevent the evolution of diseases and pests, but also prevent harmful rain, so it is necessary to build greenhouses and cover them with insect-proof nets and rainproof cloth.

The simple greenhouses built in the territory were one acre in size. In order to make it uniform, Xia Qing decided to reclaim five acres of land.

For Xia Qing, the power evolution lord who owns a power evolution sheep, reclaiming five acres of land is a piece of cake.

However, to build five greenhouses, it is necessary to complete many steps such as digging holes, setting up arch supports, tying crossbars, covering with insect-proof nets and rainproof cloths, etc. For Xia Qing, who only has two pairs of hands in the territory, it will take several days.

However, Xia Qing was not in a hurry.

These few days she had to calm her emotions affected by the volatile gases emitted by the big camphor tree, collect synthetic element gases, and look after the big sheep. She also happened to clear the wasteland, plow the land, and build a greenhouse.

Xia Qing likes to do farm work because it gives her a sense of accomplishment. Every piece of wasteland she reclaims will be planted with seeds of hope and grow food.

This morning, Xia Qing's task is to clear the rocks and weeds in the area that has been selected for reclamation, level the land, and divide the plots. In the afternoon, he can harness the sheep and turn the land over.

Xia Qing has always been very diligent and serious about farming. Whenever she has time, she clears the weeds and rocks in the uncultivated land and levels the land. Now she just needs to clear the weeds that were not cleared last fall and were covered by snow, and pick up small stones. The temperature is 15 degrees, neither too cold nor too hot. The sound of rushing water, the melodious birdsong and the clucking of chickens make her happy and energetic.

Xia Qing worked alone for less than an hour, and the sick wolf came to help after feeding the fish. The sick wolf could also do the general farm work in the territory. It would pull weeds with its mouth, dig saplings with its claws, and pick up stones.

After the man and the wolf worked for a while, the sheep boss, who had eaten and drunk his fill in the greenhouse, came over. He lay under a tree, squinting his eyes and chewing his cud, watching his companions busying themselves.

Many birds flew over and landed on the cleared land, looking for insects brought out by tree and grass roots to eat.

Xia Qing simply let the chickens in the greenhouse out and let them dig up worms in the soil to eat. Anyway, her territory was surrounded by a wall, so the chickens couldn't escape.

Xia Qing now has 18 chickens, of which 1 male and 10 females are hers, and 7 are from Zhang San. Zhang San's foster chickens don't survive more than two months in Territory No. , and will be caught and slaughtered by Daya. These seven were sent here last month.

The shiny black rooster is still the leader of the flock, walking in front with its head held high, digging the soil with its sharp black claws to find insects. If a bird dares to come and snatch food from the flock, the black rooster will puff up the feathers on its neck, flap its wings and rush over to fight.

Xia Qing asked the sick wolf to keep an eye on the surroundings to prevent the plucked weasels from coming to steal the chickens, while she kept an eye on the sky.

Half an hour later, an eagle circled high in the sky over Territory No. 3. When it began to circle and descend, ready to dive and catch the chicken, Xia Qing took out his slingshot and shot a steel ball.

"Xiao——"

The frightened eagle let out a crisp cry, spread its wings and flew upwards desperately to escape from this territory. A few feathers fluttered and fell in the wind.

"Giggle-"

The black-feathered rooster crowed rapidly and low, and took the chickens into hiding in the uncleared weeds. The birds were frightened and fled in all directions.

After confirming that the eagle had flown away, the chickens and birds landed in the area cleared by Xia Qing to look for insects to eat.

Xia Qing put away her slingshot and continued to clear the weeds. Although her shooting accuracy with a slingshot was a little worse than with a gun, it was still no problem to hit a target as big as an eagle.

However, eagles hunt for survival. After becoming friends with the bird keeper, Xia Qing became more tolerant towards birds.

When birds of prey came to her territory to hunt her chickens, Xia Qing would first drive them away with a slingshot or stones. If the birds of prey were ungrateful or had evolved out of control and did not retreat after Xia Qing demonstrated her strength, she would have to destroy them.

Xia Qing is more tolerant of birds, but not other bird predators.

After a while, the plucked weasel was attracted by the noise here and lay stealthily in the grass not far away.

Xia Qing did not drive it away because the sick wolf, which had already discovered the weasel, did not show any reaction, which meant that the weasel's target was not the chickens she raised, but birds that eat insects.

Ten minutes later, the plucked weasel successfully caught two beautiful little birds.

A few minutes later, Xia Qing received a plucked bird from the plucked weasel. (End of this chapter)
