Rebirth of the Poor Girl

After hearing Tian Huairen's words, Tian Huaixiao was afraid of the old man after all, and planned to sell all the food, but in the end, he still left two stones behind, and quickly packed up with Xiao Taohua and left.

Later, when Tian Minyan heard that the old man returned to Henghe, he found that Tian Huaide had never said anything about asking him to go back. When Tian Huaixiao came back and said that he had sold the rations, he finally understood, and was so angry that he almost gave Tian Huaixiao to him. Get out of the house.

Of course, Tian Minyan and the others didn't bother to pay attention to these bad things, because they were all anxious to solve new troubles.

Because of a miscalculation at the beginning, the five hundred catties of potato seeds that Tian Minyan bought could only be planted on three acres of land, and the remaining 97 acres of land have not been settled yet.

Knowing this situation, Tian Minyan immediately went to Faji to find the shopkeeper, but found out that the shopkeeper was seriously ill and would not go to the Western Regions in the near future, and if he could go, the only thing that came back and forth was the potatoes he bought. It has to be dried and cut into pieces to accelerate germination. It will take October or even longer to get them all up, and the time for autumn sowing has long been missed.

Tian Min came out of Faji with a weary face, and walked down the street dejectedly, feeling that his original thoughts were too naive and self-righteous, which led to a dilemma today.

The harvest of potatoes is considerable. She thought she could plant more, but it was only three or two acres, wasting other land for nothing, which made her very unwilling. Could it be that the remaining land can only be planted with soybeans and other things? ?

If you can still buy seed potatoes, if you miss autumn sowing, you can still sow them in winter, but where can you get seed potatoes?

Tian Minyan just lowered her head to think about things, didn't even look at the road ahead, and suddenly bumped into a wall, the wall was still glowing with a faint smell of medicine, she let out a ouch, raised her head to look at the wall she hit, covering her nose ’, exclaimed in surprise: “Master Seventeen?”

"You don't look at the road when you walk, and you still don't pay back when you bump into someone? You are so rude." Qi Qiqi squinted her peachy eyes, looked at the circle of black and white under her eyes, and said, "Why are you so preoccupied?"

"I'm sorry, I'm just thinking about things." Tian Minyan sighed, and said with a wry smile: "Of course it's a big problem."

"Oh? Tell me, maybe I can help you." Qi Shiqi raised his eyebrows.

"You can't help me." Tian Minyan pursed her lips and walked forward.

"How do you know you can't help if you don't tell me?" Qi Shiqi asked as he walked beside her.

"If you can go to the Western Regions, then you can help me."

"Western Region? I can go."

"Really?" Tian Minyan was overjoyed when she heard that, and turned her head to look at him with sparkling eyes: "Come on, let's go to Wenxiangju to drink tea and talk."

Wen Xiangju, Qin Haitang offered two cups of tea, chatted with them a few words and then left.

However, Tian Minyan couldn't wait to look at Qi Shiqi who was lying on the couch, and asked, "Master Shiqi, can you really go to the Western Region?"

"I just came back from the Western Regions half a year ago, why can't I?" Qi Qiqi glanced at her, pinched the teacup with his slender fingers and brought it to the tip of his nose, smelling the rich tea fragrance, the corners of his mouth curled up evilly and said: "This world , there is no place that Qi Shiqi can't go to."

"Then you've heard of potatoes, ah, they're potatoes." Tian Minyan asked quickly, "It's a kind of sweet potato grown in the Western Regions."

"Potatoes?" Qi Shiqi looked at her: "What?"

"A kind of food that can be used as a dish or as a food supplement..." Tian Minyan explained the characteristics and even the shape of potatoes in detail.

"You mean the thing that was cut into strips and fried?" Qi Shiqi snorted, and finally remembered that he had eaten this thing in the Western Regions, so he couldn't help asking her: "What's wrong?"

"Master Seventeen, I don't know if shopkeeper Qin told you that my family bought a hundred acres of wasteland, and the owner of Faji brought potatoes from the Western Regions..." Tian Minyan explained that he wanted to grow potatoes, but he made a mistake in his calculations. After talking to him, he finally said angrily: "The yield of this potato is very high, and the yield per mu can reach [-] catties or even [-]. I think all of them have been planted, but now, there is no seed potato, and the vacant land is wasted."

"What, a mu yields a thousand catties?" Qi Qiqi turned over and sat up on the couch as soon as he heard it, and looked at her solemnly: "Is what you said true?"

And such a high-yielding crop?The corn is only about [-] catties per mu, so what kind of potatoes can yield [-] catties per mu or even higher?

Tian Minyan was taken aback, but nodded and said: "It's a conservative estimate, so I don't know how it will be planted in other places. After all, this is the first time planting, but if the land is fertile, the harvest will not be bad. of."

Qi Shiqi stared at her for a while, then said, "How many more potatoes do you need?"

"If you want to plant all the rest of the land, you need about [-] kilograms per mu of land, and you need at least tens of thousands of kilograms of seed potatoes." Tian Minyan pursed her lips and pinched her fingers to press the current planted seeds. Potato size counts.

"Didn't you just say that this kind of potatoes can be bought from the Western Regions now, and they missed the autumn sowing? Then they can still be planted?" Qi Shiqi remembered her complaint just now.

"Autumn sowing can't be done, so it can be sown in winter. I've thought about it. If it is planted from October to December, it can be harvested from January to March of the following year." Tian Minyan said with a smile.

"I'll help you buy these potatoes. However, these potatoes must be kept for me when they are harvested," Qi Shiqi said.

"Ah?" Tian Minyan looked at him and wanted to ask why, but he looked like you just follow my orders and don't ask why, so he stopped talking embarrassingly, and just said: "Then I will keep the seed potatoes for next year. Is it okay?"

"I can't do without you." Qi Shiqi glanced at her, as if to say that she was petty.

Tian Minyan coughed, and cursed in her heart, who knows, I don't know you too well.

"When will Seventeenth Lord leave? Will he bring back the seed potatoes?" Tian Minyan asked.

"You just leave the land empty." Qi Shiqi squinted at her, and then his peach blossom eyes narrowed: "Why, are you afraid that there will be no seed potatoes by then, and this crop will be wasted?"

Tian Minyan laughed sarcastically, her eyes fluttering, and said: "It's nothing, where did it come from, hehe."

Qi Qiqi snorted, walked up to her, poked her smooth forehead with his finger, and said, "Girl, what are you thinking, and you can hide it from me?"

Tian Minyan wasn't wary of such a poke from him, stepped back a few steps, frowned and said, "Master Seventeen, men and women can't kiss each other."

"Yo ho, we all slept together, you still say this? It's not too late?" Qi Shiqi saw her like this, intentionally teasing her, and smiled wickedly.

Tian Minyan stared wide-eyed, glanced outside, and said in a calm voice: "Master Seventeen, don't talk nonsense, a woman's boudoir reputation is more important than death, please forgive me."

Qi Shiqi clicked his tongue twice, felt bored, and waved his hand: "Go out, I will let you know when I buy the seed potatoes."

Tian Minyan let out an oh, blessed her body, turned and walked out, thinking that Master Qi Shiqi is really a fickle guy, but for the sake of him being able to buy seed potatoes for him, let it go.

She took two steps, then stopped suddenly, frowned, turned around to look at the man who was leaning on the couch again, and approached him.

"What? Don't you want to part with me?" Qi Shiqi saw her go and come back again, with a rascal smile on his face.

"Master Seventeen's surname is Qi?" Tian Minyan stared at him and asked.

Qi Shiqi's eyes flashed, and he said, "What's wrong? There are too many people surnamed Qi in the world."

Tian Minyan pursed her lips, her surname is Qi, is there really such a coincidence in this world?In the bitter love letter she saw in her previous life, the one who bought a hundred acres of wasteland to grow cotton was named Qi. Could this Qi be the Qi in front of her?

"Has Lord Seventeen ever thought about buying land? Have you ever thought about buying some wasteland for reclamation?" Tian Minyan asked nervously.

"Yes, I wanted to buy that piece of land in your house, but you took it first." Qi Shiqi deliberately joked.

Tian Minyan's heart skipped a beat, is it really the same person?When will those cotton seeds appear, and in whose hands will they appear?Is it this person?Foreign countries, do you mean the Western Regions?

No matter what, Tian Minyan wanted to take a gamble, so he said: "The Seventeenth Master is going to the Western Regions, please stop by to see if there is a kind of cottonseed over there, if there is, please also ask the Seventeenth Master to help bring it back."

"Oh, another crop with a yield of a thousand catties per mu?" Qi Shiqi glanced at her, the girl knew a lot.

"I would like to." Tian Minyan smiled and said: "Although this is not a thousand catties per mu, if there is such a crop in my Southern Dynasty, I guarantee that the Seventeenth Lord will no longer be afraid of the cold in winter, and our Southern soldiers can also Not afraid of the cold winter."

Qi Shiqi narrowed his peach blossom eyes when he heard this, and shot Tian Minyan like an arrow in his dark eyes, and said, "Girl, do you know what you are talking about?"

Tian Minyan's pupils shrank, but she still said: "As long as the Seventeenth Lord can find this cotton seed, I can make the Seventeenth Lord live a warm winter."

Qi Shiqi looked at her intently, and suddenly laughed out loud, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, and said: "You know a lot. I really want to see a girl who grew up in the countryside. How do I know that so many people don't know her?" know something?"

Tian Minyan grunted, thinking that she was too complacent, forgetting that sometimes it is not a good thing to be too smart, so she smiled and said: "I also saw it from the history of foreign lands. Cotton can be made into clothes by weaving workshops. If the Seventeenth Master sees it and brings it back to plant one, it is also necessary for people to keep warm."

After she finished speaking, she stopped talking, and walked out quickly, seemingly calmly.

Qi Shiqi looked at her disappearing back, her eyes were a little complicated and unclear, this girl was too mysterious, she always felt like she was covered with layers of veils, one layer of veil was lifted, and one side of the mystery was solved, and then another layer was lifted, and another layer, layer upon layer Layers are different.

Isn't the 11-year-old peasant girl too smart?

"Yang Guan!" He shouted, Yang Guan came out from that corner, Qi Shiqi ordered a few times, Yang Guan took the order and left.

Tian Minyan, who left, didn't know that Qi Shiqi became suspicious of her unintentional display of intelligence, so much so that she didn't even know she was being spied on secretly.
