Space at hand: Pick up a prince to farm

Chapter 457
"Is this far from the sea?"

"The sea? It's not very far. The other end of the city is on the seaside, less than a hundred kilometers away, but nothing can be grown in those places. Almost no grass grows."

This is a pity for Cang Xiuxuan. It is a pity that food cannot be grown in such a stretch of land.

There is almost no grass growing... It must be saline-alkali land.

Seawater infiltration in coastal areas will form coastal saline-alkali soil.

For people of this era, saline-alkali lands are indeed a very serious problem. They simply cannot find suitable ways to improve them, and in the end they have no choice but to stay away from these areas.

This should also be an important reason why such a good place is not looked down upon by Da Rong.

"The first batch of people from Da Rong will arrive soon. I think if they fail this time, the next step is to block us. And these places where we can't grow anything will be very detrimental to us. But in my space, there are There is a constant supply of food, but there must also be a source.”

Song Chen never worried about not having food, but she worried that giving too much for granted would make people here develop bad habits.

This is the last thing she wants to see.

What she is worried about is also what Cang Xiuxuan is worried about. The food in her hand can ensure that they can have enough food under any harsh conditions, but it is also very easy to develop their natural habits, so what he has to do is to take it for granted. Keep this secret of hers.

But listening to the source of what she is talking about now...

"Are you thinking about those lands by the sea?"

Although he asked this question, Cang Xiuxuan felt that he had already guessed it.

Sure enough, Song Chen's next words also confirmed his guess, "The area we are in now has a lot of arable area, but if it is really blocked, it will not be enough. The saline-alkali land on the seaside cannot be improved. , I’ll think of a way.”

She didn't speak too harshly. After all, she didn't major in this field. She just knew that there are some modern methods that can slightly improve the soil quality of saline-alkali land, and finally planted some salt-alkali tolerant plants.

If successful, finding ways to trade with the outside world would be much more beneficial than simply purchasing.

Naturally, Cang Xiuxuan would not stop such a thing. If Song Chen could really succeed, then the people in their city would be able to live more comfortably, and she would not have to take such risks to get food from space. come out.

He could help her cover up, but there was nothing he could do to ensure that nothing went wrong.

"Don't force it, and don't be burdened. If it works, we'll be happy. If it doesn't, don't blame yourself."

Cang Xiuxuan comforted her softly. He knew her too well. He did everything for success, but this matter was too difficult at the moment. He was afraid that she would torture him, which would make him feel bad. .

Although he cared about the people, it was not at her expense.

Song Chen nodded, "I'll do what I can."

**
In the end, Song Chen persuaded Cang Xiu , Song Chen had a new understanding of this city.

The entire city is equivalent to a barrier between Dayong and here, including all areas close to the coastline within its own scope. It is surrounded by mountains and seas, and the terrain is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

This time Song Chen went out, but Cang Xiuxuan forced him to wear men's clothes and make himself look ordinary. In order not to attract attention, Song Chen only took Cong Hai with him.

Cang Xiuxuan also felt that the fewer people there, the better. He could rest assured of Cong Hai's skills, and the little girl was easy to mess with, not to mention the two secret guards beside her.

These two secret guards were the best in his place. From the moment they were placed beside her, they had not had a chance to show up.

"Cong Hai is a trustworthy person, but don't reveal your secrets as a last resort. You will pass through some small tribes on this trip. We are living in peace at the moment. We won't know anything about it in the future, and remember not to reveal your origins."

Before leaving, Cang Xiuxuan was still urging Song Chen.

Song Chen didn't think he was verbose and listened attentively.

"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to me. There are you and so many of my family members here. How could I let it go..."

Song Chen's carriage was getting further and further away, but Cang Xiu Xuandu still stood there and couldn't bear to leave. If it weren't for the trivial matters in the city and the army from Dayong, he would definitely go with her.

Now I'm just here watching her leave home.

But she just said that there is him and her family here, and she puts herself first...

This discovery made Cang Xiuxuan as excited as a child, and the sadness of parting was much lessened.

If Song Chen knew what he was thinking at this time, he would definitely laugh helplessly. He even cares about such a sequence. This man is really stingy in this regard.

Cang Xiuxuan didn't turn around until Song Chen was completely out of sight. He wanted to tell the Song family about the situation.The Song family is now used to Song Chen going out from time to time, but they are still worried after all. When Cang Xiuxuan came, they almost didn't care about their identity.

Seeing their anxious expressions, Cang Xiuxuan felt moved in her heart. Her family members were indeed worthy of all she had done.

"Xiaochen won't encounter any danger this time. Although she doesn't have many people with her, she has my secret guards around her. There are also some of my military camps along the way. Please don't worry."

In order to prevent those small tribes from uniting, Cang Xiuxuan placed troops among these small tribes. As long as there is movement there, the secret guards can contact those troops immediately.

When he said this, the Song family felt a lot more relaxed, and they still trusted Cang Xiuxuan and the others.

Two people and one carriage, Song Chen and Cong Hai embarked on their first trip after coming to the new city. Her purpose was very clear, heading straight to the seaside.

She knew that the ocean actually brought endless business opportunities, and what she had to do now was to try her best to put all the money from the rich and powerful people in Dayong into her own pocket.

Although Conghai had the word "sea" in his name, he had never been to the beach. As they went further south, he felt that the smell in the air had changed.

"Girl, have you noticed that the air seems to be different?"

At this moment, Song Chen also sat on the carriage, looking at the changed scenery in front of him, feeling very good.

"Yeah, the closer you get to the seaside, the more moist you feel. It feels a little sticky when you blow it on your face."

In her previous life, Song Chen often went to the beach for vacation. This feeling was still very clear in her memory, but she didn't like it very much, as if she was feeling stuffy.

Cong Hai only felt a little fresh, but he still couldn't understand the feeling Song Chen said, "Girl, have you been to the beach?"

Song Chen was just about to nod, but then she remembered her current identity. She knew that Cong Hai just thought of this question and didn't think much about it, but she couldn't help but pay attention.

"I haven't been there, but I'm quite sensitive."

Cong Hai knew this. Their girls seemed to be extremely sensitive to the surrounding environment. Then he thought about what happened to their girls, and it could be explained.

"According to the map given by the prince, we should not be far from our destination. We can arrive in two or three days, but we may have to sleep in the wild for these few days."

This road was inaccessible. We could occasionally see a few families in the past two days, but today we didn't see any of them. Fortunately, the carriage prepared by the prince when they went out was big enough, and their girl could live in the carriage. He It can also be used on the frame.

"No problem."

Song Chen doesn't have very high requirements for the place where she lives. Anyway, she has space. She can enter the space at night. If something happens to Cong Hai, he won't open the door of the carriage directly. As long as there is a slight movement outside, Song Chen can come out of the space immediately. .

Before dark, we found an open place from the sea and stopped the carriage.

Song Chen also got out of the car and did some exercise.

"You make a fire and I'll find what to eat for dinner."

When they came out, they brought a lot of dry food and some noodles she had made before.

After thinking about it, she took some vegetable bags from the space. She made them in the space when she had nothing to do. Originally, she thought that there were almost no green vegetables to eat in the winter in Beiguan Village. She To make this vegetable bag, you only need to soak it in warm water and you can eat vegetables.

In the end, who knew there would be such a change, and all these things were placed in her space.

He took out all the pots and pans and placed them next to Cong Hai, "I'll go see if I can find a source of water."

Before Conghai had time to raise his head, he realized that Song Chen had already strode forward. Looking at the complete equipment, Conghai's mind went blank. Their girl was really a good expert at home, and she even brought all these things with her.

Thinking of the way they had slept in the open air and the dry food they had eaten, Conghai felt sad.

The water source is actually not difficult to find. After all, this is not a desert, and the rainfall in the south is also considerable. Song Chen found a clean stream, took out some water and put it in a bucket, but added some spiritual spring water to it. Firstly, it can purify the water, and secondly, it can also relieve fatigue.

When she brought the water over, Conghai had already lit a fire, which looked very conspicuous from a distance.

Conghai also heard Song Chen's footsteps, and quickly stood up to take the bucket, "Girl, just ask me to do this next time. Just rest."

"I'm still resting. I've been in a carriage all the way, so I still need to stretch my muscles to some extent."

When Cong Hai heard what she said, he smiled and stopped trying to persuade her. He quickly washed the pot and prepared to cook noodles.

Song Chen simply left it to Cong Hai to do such a not-so-difficult task. Anyway, the final taste would not be much different.
