Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year
Chapter 52: You come and she goes, you chase her but she’s not there
After opening it, there were a few crystal sugar cubes inside.
He shared it with Shen Ningning. The little guy took one and tasted it, and was immediately captured by the sweet taste.
"So sweet!" She widened Hei Lingling's eyes.
Deng Fugui said proudly: "This is loquat candy. My loquat tree used to grow best. The fruits were so big and round that I couldn't finish them."
"My mother will boil all the loquats into candy cubes. If you like, I'll give them to you."
"It's too dry now and the loquat trees can't survive. If my family can plant them again in the future, I'll leave all the loquat candies made by my mother to you."
Shen Ningning listened to his words, but looked at the candy cubes with her big and smart eyes.
She remembered that grandma had said it before.
The land in Xiangyun Village is actually not fertile. When there is no drought, every household mainly makes a living by growing and selling loquats.
Because loquat trees are drought-tolerant and like direct sunlight, they can survive easily.
If taken care of well, it will bear a lot of fruit from March to July.
At this time, Grandma Qin, the old village chief, and the villagers were talking and walking in their direction.
Shen Ningning's eyes lit up and she ran over: "Grandpa Village Chief! I have a proposal!"
The old village chief knelt down and said, "Good Ningning, what's wrong?"
"Since everyone is about to start farming, how about we plant loquat trees again?"
"Loquats can be used as medicine, can be made into sugar, and can also quench thirst! They are drought-resistant and have a high chance of survival!"
In this way, if everyone encounters a day without food, they will not be unable to survive.
If we plant sorghum, I'm afraid the weather will be too dry and it will be a waste of time.
Even if it stores water, how long can it last?
The old village chief was stunned when he heard this.
The villagers all agreed.
After all, growing loquats is not difficult for every household.
But the old village chief sighed.
"Ning Ning, let me show you something." He walked into the room.
After a while, I came out with a veil on my hand.
What was inside were all small, shriveled seeds.
The old village chief frowned helplessly: "After the severe drought, many loquat trees in our village died."
"Even the seeds are shriveled and withered, so they are of no use at all. Why doesn't Grandpa want to plant loquat trees?"
Compared with normal food crops, they are more familiar with loquat trees and know how to take care of them and feed them easily.
But Shen Ningning just lowered her long eyelashes and glanced.
Then she raised her head, her voice soft and relaxed: "It doesn't matter, I have loquat tree saplings!"
The old village chief was stunned: "You have it?!"
Grandma Qin immediately came up and explained: "They are all grown in the mountains, wild."
She wants to protect Ning Ning's fairyland from outsiders.
The old village chief suddenly realized.
Shen Ningning blinked and said, "If grandpa agrees, Langlang and I will send the saplings over in a few days. The quantity will not be large."
The old village chief thought for a while and nodded immediately: "It's just... Ning Ning, how much money do you want to charge?"
There's no way she could give this kind of thing away for free, right?
Shen Ningning said decisively: "If it is for the people of Xiangyun Village, no money is required."
She answered so quickly, as if she had already thought about it.
Then, the little man smiled sweetly: "But I want to find two uncles to help my grandma and I farm our land. When we sell the fruits, we will get 73% of the profit."
In Xiangyun Village, every household's land has been allocated in advance.
The Qin family had a piece of land before. It was not big, only two acres.
Without the help of men, the land designated would be abandoned.
The old village chief hesitated.
Some people may not agree that if you plant two acres of land, you can only get three-thirds of the income.
However, Uncle Liu took the initiative to stand up: "Ning Ning, you can count me in."
Sister-in-law Liu was stunned and tried to stop her, but she couldn't.
As Uncle Liu came out, there was also a strong villager who also offered to help Shen Ningning.
The little guy's dark eyes looked at them: "Uncle, have you two made up your mind?"
"Think about it, you have helped the village so much before, I just raised a hand and planted as much land as you want!" Uncle Liu said solemnly.
Sister-in-law Liu hurriedly said: "Ning Ning, do you think seventy-three points is too little? We help you plant them, but the whole village can get your saplings for free. It's really unfair."
Shen Ningning blinked her eyelashes and said, "It's fair. My land is fertile and we will grow a lot of fruits!"
Sister-in-law Liu saw that she was young and didn't have the nerve to refute.
As for the Qin family's wasteland, even the birds wouldn't poop.
But Shen Ningning had her own plans.
No matter how desolate that piece of land is, if it is irrigated by her spiritual spring water, it will still grow a lot of loquats.
By then, their harvest from two acres of land will definitely be as good as someone else’s four acres!
After the agreement was reached, Shen Ningning and Grandma Qin rode the wolves home.
On the way, Grandma Qin asked: "Ning Ning, why did you suddenly have the sudden idea to let everyone farm together?"
The little man hugged the Black Wolf King's neck and shook his calves.
Her voice was waxy: "Grandma, the weather won't get better in a short time, it will get even hotter!"
She didn't know why, but she had an intuition in her heart that the next drought would only get worse.
"Everyone in the village knows that we are living a good life now. If we encounter trouble, they will definitely find a way to find us if they are desperate."
"There may be trouble then. My brother said that I have so many things and I can't just let people know about it."
"So, I happened to learn a sentence a few days ago: It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish. Instead of sharing food and water with the village all the time, it is better to teach them to prepare."
She did this for the purpose of protecting the mountain.
Because the little guy discovered that if a person is pushed into a hurry, he can do anything.
Grandma Qin was surprised by Shen Ningning's rapid change.
The little guy is really different. He is smart enough to understand the ways of the world!
"Ning Ning, everything you said is right, grandma supports you."
After dinner in the evening, Shen Ningning entered the fairyland.
Fortunately, when she was planting fruit a few days ago, she buried the seeds of the loquat tree.
After being watered by the spiritual rain of the fairyland, about fourteen loquat tree saplings are now standing tall and tall in the soil, and they are all taller than Shen Ningning!
The little guy hesitantly used the shovel to dig out the saplings bit by bit, and then dragged them out of the fairyland.
Just digging out fourteen trees made her exhausted!
She was too small, and the wolves couldn't follow her into Wonderland.
Besides, fourteen loquat trees are not enough for the whole village.
Therefore, the next day, Shen Ningning returned to the village and asked everyone to reclaim the wasteland first.
She could take advantage of these few days to repeatedly go into the fairyland to plant trees. When the saplings were taller than her, Shen Ningning would dig them out.
The people in Xiangyun Village were naturally very happy. Every household was full of energy and went to weed and loosen the soil before dawn.
And Shen Ningning's feeling was right.
In just two days, the sun shines even brighter.
Even though it had just rained heavily, the small green grass that had just emerged from the cracks was instantly withered by the bright sunlight.
Mo Lingwei drove directly to the private school in Guangyang County under the scorching sun.
He remembered that he had made an appointment with Shen Ningning today to pick her up from school.
However, when he arrived, the bookboy told him: "The sun has been so hot recently that many students staying in private schools have suffered from heatstroke, so the masters have waived half a month of classes and let the students stay at home to rest."
Mo Lingwei frowned slightly.
Chen Shaobei, who was sitting next to him, folded his arms and couldn't help laughing.
He immediately received two cold looks from Mo Lingwei.
Chen Shaobei coughed lightly: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I didn't smile."
"I was just thinking that the fate between His Royal Highness and this young lady Shen seems really strange."
"It's always you who comes and she leaves, and you chase after her, but she's not here."
Mo Lingwei's voice was cold: "You won't die if you stop saying a few words."
Chen Shaobei raised his hand to indicate that he should shut up.
Looking at the hot sun, Mo Lingwei pursed his lips: "Although I haven't been to her new home in the mountains, it's not like I can't find it."
Chen Shaobei's expression paused: "In this vast mountain, how do you plan to find it, Your Highness?"
