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

Chapter 639: New Lord of Territory No.
Before winter last year, Xia Qing dug cold-proof ditches around the wintering wheat and rapeseed fields and on the south side of the greenhouse, and filled them with crushed crop straw and leaves, which kept the farmland warm while fermenting.

Today, Xia Qing will dig out the fermented organic fertilizer, transport it to the empty farmland, spread it evenly, and use it as base fertilizer together with animal manure.

Thanks to the high-efficiency composting bacteria powder developed by San Ge, everyone can ferment qualified fertilizer using such a low-cost method.

This kind of farm work is very strenuous, and what Xia Qing has the most is strength.

She first removed the covering layer on the anti-cold ditch, and then used a four-pronged steel fork specially made for her to shovel the fermented leaves and chopped straw into the trailer of the micro-tillage machine, and then pulled it to the farmland where fertilizer was needed and spread it evenly.

Wen Nengjie and his men pulled weeds for half an hour, and saw from afar that Xia Qing had already filled a large cart with organic fertilizer and had spread it on the farmland.

Wen Nengjie and his men pulled weeds for an hour, and Xia Qing pulled two large carts. When they took a break after working for more than two hours, Xia Qing, who had already pulled five carts of fertilizer, worked at the same speed and had no intention of taking a break, which stunned Wen Nengjie and his team who were working in the south of the territory.

Why use “listen”?

Because Wen Nengjie and his gang discovered that as long as they stood up on a high place and looked to the north, they would be able to see that the evolved wolf in Territory No. 3, which was said to be "recuperating", was staring at them with bloodthirsty eyes.

It seemed as if the wolf would rush over and bite their necks in the next second.

So they didn't dare to look and could only rely on their ears to listen to Xia Qing's movements.

After lunch, Wen Nengjie and his group sat in the shade of a tree for their afternoon break. They could not hear any noise from the north because Xia Qing did not start the tillage machine in the afternoon. She began to carry fermented manure down from the terraced fields on the hillside.

Xia Qing carried the load on his shoulders, while Yang Lao Da carried the load on his back. Xia Qing carried two baskets each time, while Yang Lao Da also carried two large baskets each time. One person and one sheep, full of energy.

When Wen Nengjie and his crew finished today's tasks and said goodbye to Xia Qing before leaving Territory No. 3, Xia Qing was still tidying up the farmland.

Normally, when Wen Nengjie and his crew returned to the territory after a day's work, they were all laughing and joking, but today, everyone was upset and kept silent.

Tang Huai emerged from the weed wall of Territory No. 2 and asked, "What's wrong with you guys? Is Xia Qing not satisfied that the work was not done well?"

He didn't hear what Xia Qing said.

Wen Nengjie certainly wouldn't say that he was frightened by Xia Qing's powerful strength and endurance, as well as the evolved wolf. He smiled and shook his head, "No, I'm just tired."

The next day, Zhong Tao and Zheng Kui drove a patrol car and stopped outside the south gate of Territory No. 3.

Wen Nengjie and his gang actually saw Xia Qing using a micro-tillage machine to pull a cart of goods and exchanged it with Zhong Tao and Zheng Kui.

“这袋子里是长度10厘米以上的毒蝎子，一共60只；这俩袋子里是5-10厘米的，一共160只；这俩小袋子里是5厘米以下的，235只。”

Wen Nengjie's scalp tingled when he heard the number. During the rainstorm, he heard the report from Territory No. 3 that an evolved poisonous scorpion had been found, but he didn't expect Xia Qing to be able to catch so many.

Zheng Kui poured out the scorpions and counted them. Zhong Tao immediately gave Xia Qing the score. "20 points for each scorpion that is over 10 centimeters, 1 points for each scorpion that is between 3035 and centimeters, and point for each scorpion that is under centimeters. That's points in total. Didn't you catch any snakes this time?"

Xia Qing smiled, "I was too busy to take care of it. These two baskets are green light vegetables to be exchanged for Xu Juan and Li Chang, 100 points per basket."

"Okay, the total is 3235 points, what do you want to exchange?" Zhong Tao said, handing the list of supplies to Xia Qing. Xia Qing exchanged two boxes of toilet paper, four plates for vegetables, a 2-liter bottle of Green Light soy sauce, and a -liter bottle of Green Light vinegar.

After Zhong Tao gave her the remaining points, Xia Qing asked, "Brother Tao, I heard that the western territory has been abandoned. Is the base planning to open up a new territory in the southern part of this territory?"

"Yes, the area has been marked out. It's ten miles south of this territory, all the way to the area north of the town ruins. It will be cleared within a month. After it's cleared, the western lords will apply for it first. Those who don't want to claim it can then apply publicly." Zhong Tao's information was much more detailed than Xu Juan's.

Tang Huai also walked out of the No. 2 territory, "Zhong Tao, how many lords of the western territory are willing to continue to rule their territories?"

Zhong Tao replied, "There are only a dozen or so, most of them were frightened by the wolves."

"It's normal. Anyone would be scared. By the way, when will the lottery be drawn for territory number 11?"

"I haven't heard of this, but it should be soon. If we don't decide on a lord, it will delay the spring ploughing."

After Tang Huai started chatting with Zhong Tao, Xia Qing returned to his territory and closed the gate.

After Xia Qing walked away, Peng Qiu from Territory No. 17 came up to the lord and sighed softly, "Brother Jie, did you hear that? Sister Qing caught nearly 500 poisonous scorpions in the rain and exchanged them for more than 3,000 points, which is more than 100 more than us. The points she earned alone are enough for her to hire evolvers to guard the territory during the rain."

Moreover, they exchanged toilet paper and green light seasoning with the patrol car. Unlike their territory, they use leaves to wipe their butts and only put salt in their food!
Wen Nengjie raised his chin and said, "Go to work."

The poisonous scorpions in Territory No. 30 have not been caught yet. They caught more than 10 yesterday and more than this morning. These are all points.

Not long after Zhong Tao and the others drove away, Guan Tong entered Territory No. 3 carrying a large box. Knowing that Wen Nengjie and the others were working in the south, Guan Tong didn't say much and directly handed the supplies to Xia Qing.

The big box contained a microscope, and the backpack contained a thousand rounds of ammunition and twenty kilograms of green light wheat. This batch of supplies finally arrived before Xia Qing started sowing.

On the third day when Wen Nengjie and his men were working in Xia Qing's territory, Qi Fu and his wife came carrying a plow for sowing to help Xia Qing sow crops such as wheat, mung beans, soybeans and cotton.

After sowing the seeds, Xia Qing began to clean up the terraces non-stop, and then soaked the seeds and sowed various crops that needed to maintain and improve seed quality.

Not only Xia Qing, but all the lords of the territories were busy with spring planting from dawn to dusk.

The second deadly rain of the year will come in mid-to-late May. If crops are planted one day earlier, they will pass the seedling stage earlier. When the second deadly rain comes, the losses caused by deadly rain will be less.

On the day when Xia Qing finished tidying up the terraced fields, he received great news: the result of the lottery for territory No. 11 came out, and Huo Lei became the new lord of this territory.

While Tang Huai was exclaiming in amazement at Huo Lei's incredible luck in the lord channel, Huo Lei was calling Xia Qing to express his gratitude.

He gave Zhou Qianpeng five points cards before he was able to take over this territory. In Huo Lei's own words:

"I emptied my family's savings and finally bought a good place for my stupid son to settle down."

Xia Qing's Lord Alliance has added two more powerful generals, but one of them is still in service.
