After the divorce, I became a mountain god

Chapter 542: Granting Grain Seeds

The next morning, Xu Boan slept until nine o'clock in the morning. Today was Sunday and Xu Boan did not have to go to work. He got up slowly, had breakfast, and then looked at the bonsai world. He was still thinking about distributing seeds to the little people, so Xu Boan focused his attention on the top of Kaoshan Village.

Due to the lack of seeds, a lot of arable land in Kaoshan Village is still barren. Some people from Kaoshan Village who followed Li Wufu to hunt have already packed their bags and gone to the mountains to seek prey. Jin Dajian and his team have also gone to the mountain temple to work. There are still some delicate work to be finished inside and outside the temple. Gao Tieqiang and a few others are practicing the driver's license test process that Xu Boan told them last time on the open space. It seems that they have practiced it very well.

Xu Boan then remembered that he had told the little people last time that he wanted to put the training car into the bonsai. He called Shi Changliang some time ago to modify some training cars. He didn't contact him for such a long time. He didn't know how the modification was going. He would contact him when he had time. If the modification was done, he could put the training car into the bonsai as soon as possible so that the little people could practice as soon as possible.

The rest of the people were busy with their own affairs. Some elderly people such as Li Kanshan and Li Laosan were chatting under the big tree at the entrance of the village.

Li Laosan said, "Brother, you see, the number of people in our village is increasing day by day, and a large number of refugees are pouring in every day. If this continues, I think even if we take out all the food, we may not survive this winter. Now we have already distributed a batch of seeds, thinking that if everyone eats less, we can at least survive until the harvest. But if this trend continues, I am afraid we will not be able to wait until then."

"That's right, village chief, what do you say we should do? I don't want to go back to the past, to the days of having no food to eat!" said one of the people who moved from Kaoshan Village with Li Kanshan and others.

One of the very optimistic old men said, "I really don't know why you are so worried. We have the Mountain God to take care of us now. Are we still worried about not having food? If all else fails, we can go and ask the Mountain God for help. He will definitely help us solve our problems. How can a living person be suffocated to death by urine?"

"Yes, village chief, if you ask me, we should just go find the mountain god instead of looking so sad all day long." said another person.

Li Kanshan frowned and said, "Grandpa Mountain God has helped us enough. We should be self-reliant. You see, we now have enough water under the care of Grandpa Mountain God. As long as we water the crops diligently, our crops should be able to get better. In the fall, we can also harvest more food. There are also wild vegetables and fruit trees in the mountains. As long as there is no shortage of water, they can provide us with food for a while. Unless it is absolutely necessary, we should try not to bother him, so as not to disturb his meditation."

Hearing Li Kanshan's words, several people nodded in agreement.

Xu Boan was very pleased to hear the conversation between several people. No wonder every unit has to do ideological education for employees. This not only allows employees to abide by discipline, but also allows them to fulfill their responsibilities. At the moment, Li Kanshan seemed to be playing the role of doing ideological work for people in the crowd.

At this time Xu Boan said: "What are you guys talking about here?"

When several people heard that it was the Mountain God who appeared, they immediately knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Grandpa Mountain God, we are just chatting under the tree."

Because Li Kanshan had previously advised the villagers not to mention this matter to the Mountain God, and that if the problem really could not be solved, he would inform the Mountain God himself, so these people were not going to tell Xu Boan about this matter at the moment, and that was why they answered like this.

Xu Bo'an smiled with relief and said, "As far as I know, a large number of refugees have recently poured into Kaoshan Village. I'm afraid the food you had before won't last long. I see that you still have a lot of vacant land that has not been cultivated. Now, while the farming season is not over yet, I will give you these grain seeds. Hurry and plant them in the fields."

After hearing this, several people were overjoyed. They had just been discussing this matter, and now the Mountain God came down from the sky to solve their problem. He was truly a god. Now the villagers would not have to worry about food anymore. Several people quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

Afterwards, Xu Boan converted the seeds he had bought into sizes suitable for the bonsai world and placed all of them on the open space in front of the group. Then they saw something they did not recognize falling from the sky, and then piled up into a small hill in front of them.

After seeing it, several people couldn't help but exclaim!
One of them said, "Grandpa Mountain God actually gave us so many seeds, but these seeds seem to be different from ours. Look, they are wrapped in bags with colorful pictures on them. What are they?"

"Yes, yes, you see there are some cut foods there. Can they be used as seeds? They can't be eaten directly." Another person said, looking at the bags of potato seeds.

"The red thing painted on the packaging bag looks like a fruit. Our main problem now is food shortage. Is fruit something we can do without?" said a person in the crowd.

Listening to the people talking in the crowd, Li Kanshan, as the head of the village, spoke first: "I would like to ask Grandpa Mountain God, are these grain seeds? I have lived to this age and have never seen such seeds. I would like to ask Grandpa Mountain God, how do you plant the seeds in your fairyland? Are they soaked in water? Or planted in the soil, or... Just wave your hand and they will take root and sprout?"

After listening to Li Kanshan's question, Xu Bo'an thought that these loyal believers were really interesting. They really regarded themselves as omnipotent gods. They actually thought that they could make the seeds take root and sprout just by waving their sleeves. If they really had this ability, farmers would have no need for work. They could feed billions of people in the country by themselves. Xu Bo'an couldn't help laughing when he thought about this.

After hearing this, some people laughed at the Mountain God, while others looked at them in astonishment, thinking that Village Chief Li Kanshan's words had exactly asked what they were thinking: Why was the Mountain God laughing?

However, Xu Bo'an did not deny that he was a god in the hearts of these villains. It seemed that they had some reason to think so, so he might as well keep this sense of mystery. He smiled and then said majestically: "The gods are not omnipotent. They just mastered some magical methods that you don't know. The laws of heaven and earth are not something you can understand."

Li Kanshan thought that the Mountain God was dissatisfied with his questions, so he quickly said, "I don't know how to use these seeds. My question is a bit abrupt. I hope the Mountain God will forgive me."

The people kneeling behind heard the tone of the Mountain God speaking and thought that he was angry, so they hurriedly followed Li Kanshan to pray for his forgiveness.

Seeing how cautious they were, Xu Boan calmed down and said, "Ignorance is not a crime. You all stand up first. I will introduce the names of these seeds to you and tell you how to use them."

Several of them were elderly and worried that they could not remember what the Mountain God said, so they wanted to take notes. After all, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen. However, several people together could not recognize a few words, let alone write them down. So Li Kanshan quickly called Li Qingjiang, who was taking notes not far away, and asked him to write down what the Mountain God said. Xu Boan introduced the names of various seeds and planting methods to them, and Li Qingjiang carefully wrote them down one by one.

Xu Bo'an said, "Li Kanshan, I'll give you all these seeds. Go down and distribute them to the villagers. Tell them to plant them according to the method recorded by Li Qingjiang. If there aren't enough fields, try to reclaim more wasteland and make sure all these seeds are planted."

Li Kanshan said, "Thank you, Grandpa Mountain God. Our Kaoshan Village is now thriving in population, and what we lack the least is labor. I will give instructions in a moment, and I believe that we will be able to reclaim a lot of wasteland soon, and it will not delay planting. When the harvest comes, I will bring the villagers to share the joy of the harvest with Grandpa Mountain God."

Xu Bo'an said, "Okay, then hurry down and make arrangements. The sooner the better. It will be too late if you miss the season."

Li Kanshan kowtowed and replied: "I will follow the instructions of the mountain god."

Amid the villagers’ numerous thanks, Xu Bo’an withdrew his gaze from the top of Bonsai World Kaoshan Village.

When the villagers saw that the Mountain God had not spoken for a long time, they realized that he had left, so they hurriedly got up and went to arrange this matter for their fellow villagers.

Xu Boan has placed all the seeds into the bonsai world and has explained all the related matters. Now all that is left is to purchase some tree nutrient solution.

This was prepared for the peach tree that gave birth to the tree spirit. The little tree was one of the little gods under his command. Today he had nothing to do anyway, so he gave the nutrient solution to the little tree as a reward to see if the little tree would grow more luxuriantly because of the tree nutrient solution. This could be considered an experiment of Xu Boan.

When Xu Boan bought the seeds at Ruitianxiang Seed Store, he had already read the instructions. The tree nutrient solution cannot be used directly and needs to be diluted to an appropriate concentration before use.

Generally speaking, the recommended dilution ratio for the seedling stage is 1:1000, and the ratio for the growth stage is 1:500. The peach tree grass head god under his seat is a thousand-year-old tree spirit. It has already passed the growth stage. So, there is no need to dilute it at all. This way, he can save a lot of trouble. Thinking of this, Xu Boan shifted his sight back to the location of the peach tree in the bonsai and said, "Little tree, come out to see me?"

When the peach tree heard the ethereal voice, it knew that the mountain god had arrived. Its entire body shook, and a graceful figure floated above the crown of the peach tree.

Then he made a gesture of "Wanfu Jinan" and said, "Xiaoshu greets Grandpa Mountain God."

Xu Bo'an continued, "Last time you presented me with the peaches, and helped me find the trees. I am grateful for your contribution, so I came to you this time to reward you with some magical water that may be useful to you."

After hearing this, the peach tree spirit half-knelt down and said quickly, "Grandpa Mountain God, you have been very kind to me. If you hadn't sealed my mouth, my cultivation would have been destroyed, and I would have no hope of rebuilding. It would have been even more difficult for me to transform again. It was you who gave me a new life. You have been so kind to me that I should do whatever I want. You don't have to bother to reward me. The little tree can't afford it."

Xu Bo'an said: "I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. If you make a mistake, I will punish you. If you make a contribution, I will of course reward you." After that, Xu Bo'an placed a large bag of tree nutrient solution in front of the small tree and gave her a small spray bottle.

Xu Boan had seen that the shelf life of the nutrient solution was as long as two years, so he did not reduce the amount of nutrient solution in proportion, but instead put a large bag directly in.

This way the small tree can be used longer.

A bag the size of a palm, if not shrunk to put it in, would be as tall as a peach tree.

Then he told the little tree, "Pour the magic water into a spray bottle. When you feel dry, use the bottle to spray the magic water all over your body. This will help you grow."

Xu Boan actually didn't know much about tree nutrient solution. He just thought it should be harmless, so he gave it to the sapling as a reward, treating it as an experiment. After a while, he would observe the growth of the sapling and would know whether this thing was useful for this thousand-year-old tree.

The peach tree was very happy to see the Mountain God give it such a big bag of magic water and to hear what the Mountain God said. It immediately swayed its branches and said excitedly, "Thank you, Mountain God. It must be very comfortable to spray this all over my body. In the future, whenever I feel thirsty, I can spray it myself. In this way, I don't have to wait for rain. The drought in recent years has been too serious, and we trees need a lot of water to survive. If the drought continues, relying solely on rain is really an unreliable and passive approach."

Xu Boan was very happy to see the little tree's excitement. After all, this little tree was his little god. The better the peach tree grew and the more benefits it gained, the greater the gains would be for Xu Boan.

Xu Boan was so happy that he suddenly remembered that he had planned to ask the peach tree about peaches a few days ago. He almost forgot about it. Now was a good time to ask her about it. Xu Boan said, "Little tree, this mountain god has something else to ask you. Is it true that the longer the fruit you produce stays on the tree, the greater its efficacy will be?"

The peach tree spirit showed a trace of resentment on its face, and said leisurely: "My Lord is wise, it is true, but..." (End of this chapter)
